Chapter 112: Attack

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Zhou Ling drove the flying car through the streets of the capital planet all the way from the Ping family to the Zhou family’s ancestral residence in the middle of the city. As the flying car came to a stop in front of the Zhou family’s door, a group of pursuing flying cars approached and launched a fierce attack on Zhou Ling’s vehicle.

To their surprise, Zhou Ling’s flying car was constructed using the same steel materials used to make mechas, sourced from the distant Sena Planet. This steel possessed exceptional qualities, capable of resisting acid attacks from the Zergs and displaying formidable resistance against all forms of assault. It rendered the contemporary guns and bullets of the Alliance useless, incapable of penetrating its robust exterior.

The assailants utilized cutting-edge fluid armor-piercing bullets, which could effortlessly penetrate the outer shell of an ordinary flying car but proved futile against Zhou Ling’s vehicle, unable to leave even a scratch.

Wearing a smug smile, Zhou Ling remarked, “Hmph, I anticipated this day would come. Thankfully, I had the foresight to change the outer shell of the flying car.”

“But the ongoing attacks are relentless. I fear we won’t be able to disembark for some time,” expressed Liao Ning with concern, eyeing the rain of bullets outside the window. Venturing out under such circumstances would result in a barrage of bullets.

“In that case, let us patiently wait until they run out of ammunition. There is no need to worry; this car is as resilient as a mecha,” Zhou Ling reassured.

Observing Zhou Ling’s confident expression, Liao Ning eased her anxieties. She turned around, intending to console the two young ones, only to realize they remained remarkably composed.

“…” Liao Ning found herself at a loss for words. It appeared she was the most anxious individual in the car!

The attackers’ onslaught did not persist for long. Realizing their weapons were ineffective against Zhou Ling’s flying car, they swiftly decided to cease fire.

In the meantime, nearby residents had already contacted the police. Before long, the sound of sirens could be heard approaching from a distance. Upon hearing the sirens, the assailants made a quick getaway. When the police arrived to assess the situation, some officers pursued the escaping attackers, while others remained at the scene to reassure the local residents.

A police officer saluted Zhou Ling and inquired, “Colonel Zhou Ling, we apologize for our delayed arrival. Are you and your companions injured?”

Zhou Ling stepped out of the car and engaged in negotiations. “My companion and I are unharmed. I kindly request your assistance in calming the surrounding residents. They should not suffer due to this incident. It happened because of me. If any residents incur losses, I will compensate them double.”

Upon hearing Zhou Ling’s words, the tension on the policeman’s face eased.

Dealing with descendants of aristocratic families was a daunting task for him. Fortunately, Colonel Zhou Ling was reasonable and actively cooperated, which he greatly appreciated. “You are being too considerate. It is our duty to serve the people of the Alliance. Please do not burden yourself with this matter.”

“Thank you, sir.”

After asking Zhou Ling a few brief questions, the police officer took his leave.

Zhou Ling returned to the car. “Ningning, take Mili and Nai Nai back home. I will go check on Lanyin. I’ll be back soon.”

Liao Ning nodded. “Be careful. I’m afraid they won’t give up easily.”

“Alright!”

Liao Ning held Mili’s left hand and the wolf cub’s right hand as they entered the Zhou family’s residence. Anxious butler Li approached them, tears welling up in his eyes at the sight of Mili. He held Mili’s other hand. “Miss Mili, you have suffered. I am useless. I couldn’t prevent Master from taking you away.”

Mili reached out tenderly to wipe away the tears on butler Li’s face and comforted him. “Grandpa Li, please don’t cry. This is not your fault. Grandpa used his position to forcibly take me away. Besides, I didn’t suffer much. I punished those bad people.”

Mili’s words only intensified butler Li’s heartache. He was unaware of what Mili had endured in the old master’s private house, transforming her from an innocent little girl into a wounded creature. Even her gaze towards him was guarded. Though it was slight, it was enough to cause immense pain in butler Li’s heart.

Sensing the darkening atmosphere, Liao Ning felt compelled to intervene.

“Uncle Li, the children just experienced a gunfight and are quite frightened.

Let’s take them back to rest first..”
