Chapter 1346: Making Amends
When Su Yu suddenly exploded, the entire crowd was taken aback, whether they were friend or foe.
Of course, except for the cat, Morning Star.
As Su Yu's clone exploded, Morning Star knew the show here was over.
She immediately left her spot and flew toward the Star Sector Portal, preparing to return to Sector 2 to watch another show.
Omir and the "Moth" also paused, temporarily stopping their escape. What was going on?
They immediately used their psychic powers to probe the area where Su Yu had exploded.
After the investigation, they realized it was just a clone that had exploded, not Su Yu himself.
"Damn it, it was just a clone!" Omir couldn't help but curse, his face turning even uglier.
If it was just a clone, then he had been even more deceived! Not only had he walked into a trap, but his target had been fake all along!
Even if there were no Security Department agents here, he could only capture a clone, which was infuriating.
The "Moth" remained silent, but the rapid increase in the rate of powder falling from its body revealed its inner turmoil.
Despite their anger, Omir and the "Moth" only hesitated for a moment before continuing their escape.
The elite agents of the Security Department also directed their psychic powers toward the place where Su Yu had exploded. After a quick analysis, they immediately realized it was just a clone of Su Yu, and Su Yu himself was not there.
What should they do next?
Everyone turned their gaze to Secretary Bella.
Wait, why isn't Minister Traveler here on such a crucial day?
Secretary Bella's mind raced.
Fortunately, as the secretary to Traveler Green, she had seen many major events and quickly made a decision.
"Everyone, attack together and capture this space pirate! Ignore the other two!" Bella pointed at the space pirate who had just caused the explosion of Su Yu's clone.
Although the Security Department had sent all its elite agents, Minister Traveler had not come. They had invited General Dallando, but he also hadn't shown up.
Based on the overall strength of the Security Department's elite agents present, they could only capture one super-strong opponent, not all three at once.
In fact, Bella hadn't anticipated that three such "big fish" would appear simultaneously. Their setup was only designed to catch one.
According to Bella's instant judgment, the space pirate was the second easiest to capture among the three super-strong opponents.
All three were planetary-level fifth-rank super-strong individuals, renowned throughout the universe. Bella had a general understanding of their strengths.
The weakest was Omir, the strongest was the "Moth", and the space pirate was in the middle.
Although Omir was the weakest, his identity made him more difficult to capture, so Bella ordered her subordinates to focus on the space pirate.
Upon receiving the order, the Security Department's elite agents immediately turned to face the space pirate and surrounded him.
The space pirate was at the center of the Security Department's group, now completely surrounded.
The space pirate scanned the dense web of encirclement and felt the power of the psychic artifacts constraining the space, immediately realizing the situation was dire!
With so many people and space teleportation restricted, he might really be captured!
Without hesitation, the space pirate immediately sent a mental message to Omir and the "Moth": "Please help me! If you can get me out of this, I will give you everything I own!"
The psychic message quickly reached Omir and the "Moth."
After receiving the message, their movements hesitated once again.
However, they didn't plan to turn back to save the space pirate.
For Aumir, the situation had escalated beyond his control. Going back to save the pirate now? That would be tantamount to declaring war on the Hub.
For "Mothra," not a single word from the space pirate could be trusted. Countless facts had proven that they were a bunch of filthy, deceitful scoundrels. Believing them was like believing that the Sacred Hymn could resurrect tomorrow! Even if they managed to help him escape, the pirate would surely renege on any deal.
So, they remained unmoved and continued their flight forward.
There was one thing that puzzled them, though—where were the Hub's super-strong individuals? Why hadn't any of them shown up? Even if others didn't come, shouldn't Lyman Gried have appeared? What was going on?
As they puzzled over this, Aumir and Mothra were nearly out of the range of the psychic artifact's golden light barrier. Once they flew out, they would be free!
But just then, Aumir received another psychic message.
This message was from Secretary Bella: "Sir Aumir, please help me stop that native super-strong individual.
We all know why you are here. However, this is your best chance to atone! If you can subdue this native super-strong individual, you will certainly make up for your past mistakes!"
This was Secretary Bella's plan—to turn an enemy into an ally, making Aumir go after Mothra!
While the Security Department didn't have enough personnel to deal with both the space pirate and Mothra simultaneously, Aumir could handle it!
If Aumir could hold off Mothra, they could deal with the pirate first and then take on Mothra, capturing two super-strong individuals in one go. This mission would be a resounding success!
Aumir's movement hesitated again upon receiving Bella's message—this was the third time.
But this time, he stopped completely.
His gaze shifted to Mothra, who was flapping his wings beside him, and Aumir felt an immediate urge to charge forward!
Bella was right; if he could subdue Mothra, even just by preventing him from leaving, he could certainly atone for his past mistakes!
But as he was about to act, he hesitated again.
Should he really do it? Were there other options?
Mothra, noticing Aumir's gaze, gave him a curious look.
But he didn't care why Aumir had stopped; he continued to fly forward with all his might.
Aumir remained rooted to the spot, repeatedly trying to act but hesitating each time, frozen in place.
Finally, Mothra successfully flew out of the golden light barrier created by the psychic artifact, his form flashing as he teleported away, leaving behind a cloud of moth powder drifting in the air.
Aumir no longer had any reason to hesitate. With a complex mix of emotions, he flew out of the light barrier and teleported away as well.
Now, within the light barrier, only the layers of Security Department agents and the continuously howling space pirate remained.
"Ah!" Secretary Bella sighed heavily, her face filled with confusion.
She didn't understand why Aumir hadn't acted, why he had hesitated. Wasn't this the perfect opportunity to atone for his sins?
But there was nothing she could do. If Aumir didn't act, she couldn't force him.
She could only focus and deal with the space pirate first!
Bella turned, directing her attention to the space pirate who was being surrounded and attacked.
