Chapter 537: You Don't Have a Choice
"Want to talk?" Zaki said in a somber voice.
But in fact, it is not really "speaking", because he is actually standing there without making any sound. What really spoke out was his spiritual power, and he directly projected what he wanted to say into the minds of every Kree on the bridge, and with it, there was a cold and deep oppression.
Ronan certainly felt the pressure. As the best of the Kree, his willpower and mental resistance are extremely high, much stronger than his other compatriots. But Rao was like this, and he also felt a little hard to resist.
Ronan ordered in a deep voice: "Take him down for me." β
The accuser apparently did not recognize Zaki, but this did not prevent him from giving the order.
Although I don't know what means the other side used, trespassing on a warship is an act that should be shot on the spot, and this is the same for any civilization. The reason why the order says "take" instead of "execute" is because Ronan still has questions to ask.
But he was clearly a little too optimistic.
To be honest, he didn't really see what was happening, and it felt as if a dark storm from hell had swept across the bridge in a trance.
Every Cree was swept up in something, something beyond conventional understanding, completely irresistible.
The defensive field on the Kree officers was pierced like papier-mΓ’chΓ©, their armor was lifted, their weapons exploded on the spot, and the whole person fell down like a demon, their eyes hollow and devoid of their brilliance.
In a second, the entire bridge was disarmed. And the black weirdo, who was the intruder, stood there with only his hands behind his back, and he didn't even tilt his head the whole time.
Ronan let out a low roar and stepped to meet him, the black warhammer slammed head-on with a domineering wind!
Zaki remained where he was, unable to move until the hammer hit his chest.
The next moment, he moved.
It was really in that literal sense of the word that the situation changed suddenly.
The accuser's Ronan pupils constricted. His strengthened brain was completely unable to process the process, and his eyes didn't seem to see anything. He only knew that at this moment, the war hammer in his hand had somehow flown out, his left arm was counteracted, and it was as if tens of millions of tons of pressure had been exerted on his arm. His neck was clutched, and a breath of death eroded his internal organs through his throat.
He saw the black weirdo so close that his face almost touched the tip of his nose.
He couldn't breathe.
As ridiculous as it sounded, he felt that if he had been in this state for more than a minute, he might die there.
But the other party let go of him the next moment.
Zaki watched as Ronan fell to one knee as if he had been pulled to the bone, and took a step back.
"You see, I said we could talk, and things could have been a lot easier." He rubbed his wrist lightly and said lightly.
Ronan was panting heavily, sucking the air from the cabin into his lungs with all his might.
Ronan struggled to raise his head and looked at him with difficulty: "You...... You are the ...... of Shinrikyo"
Zaki paced slowly along the bridge's control platform.
"You realize, well, then we can skip the opening line."
Zaki turned to look at him, and Ronan was barely standing up from the table.
"You're famous, Kree. I know you hate the Xanders, and I know you want to crusade against them, but it doesn't work with the Kree Empire's current policy. β
Ronan's eyes narrowed.
It's not a secret, and the slightly more well-informed forces in the universe know it. The Kree Empire and the Nova Legion of Sandar are mortal enemies, and the two sides have been fighting for an unknown number of centuries, and they don't know how many people have died with each other, which is an irresolvable feud.
However, after the battle lasted for a long time, the consumption on both sides was too great, and the people on both sides were tired of the days of artillery fire. Therefore, recently Sandar and Cree signed an armistice agreement and decided to temporarily cease fire, and everyone will rest and recuperate for a while behind closed doors.
The Kree Empire seems to have a lot of territory, but in fact, the empire is in turmoil. The Kree are very militaristic, very good at fighting wars, but they are really not good at governance, and with the increasing size of the territory, they simply cannot manage it themselves.
But Ronan doesn't care so much. Ronan has been cultivated as a weapon of war since he was a child, and has been instilled with hatred for the Sandal people since he was a child, and that hatred is imprinted in his bones. He didn't care about any non-stop agreement, he just wanted to wipe out the Xanders.
The reason why he cooperated with Thanos was also for this, and snatching the cosmic spirit ball was also for this purpose. Because he also understands that if the Kree Empire decides to cease the war, he alone has no hope of winning the war anyway.
He needs to find outside help.
After a moment of silence, Ronan asked, "What do you want?" β
"Do what you want to do most." Zaki replied, "Attack Xandar and destroy the Nova Legion." The Church of Truth is here to help. β
Ronan frowned, "Why?" β
"Because they've been gradually becoming a nuisance lately." Zaki replied lightly, "It's a small trouble, but it's still hard to get left unchecked, which makes us have a common enemy." β
Ronan didn't speak, and began to think about the feasibility of this matter.
If the Universe Truth Cult is really willing to take action, the situation could indeed change dramatically. The current strength of the Shinrikyo is obvious to all in the universe, and their conflict with the Nova Legion and even with the Xia Empire is also a fact, and everyone knows this now.
It is naturally impossible for Ronan, as a military general, not to pay attention to these news related to the change of the situation. He was well aware that it was already a trend for the Shinrikyo and Nova Legions to go to war in an all-out manner, and that the Xi'ans, who were allies of the Sandals, would also be involved.
It's risky, but it's a pretty good opportunity. He can take advantage of the opportunity of all-out war to fulfill a long-cherished wish that has not been fulfilled for years - to defeat the Nova Legion and bloodied the planet of Xandhar.
It's just that doing so may provoke the Upper Hia Empire, and maybe even lead to a war between Kerry and Hia.
But whatever!
The last thing he Ronan is afraid of is war, and he wishes that the whole world would fight.
The only problem left is that there is no basis for trust between them to cooperate.
"How can I trust you?" He asked in a deep voice.
Zaki laughed, laughter echoing in Ronan's mind like rolling thunder, making his scalp tingle.
"Actually, you can't." Zaki took two steps back as he spoke, and his dark body began to disintegrate into countless black-and-red particles.
"But you don't have a choice."
Countless particles flew away, and the dark body disappeared into place out of thin air.
