Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 491

Chapter 490, Fatal Assassination

The limousine exploded violently, and the vehicle was torn apart in an instant, with debris flying everywhere.

But in the flames and debris, a circle of blue light balls flew out, which was naturally Gu Hang with a psychic shield.

With his full strength, he was not so easy to be killed.

The assassins obviously did not give up. In addition to the extremely penetrating and highly toxic bullets at the beginning and the high-explosive bullets fired in succession, they also arranged personnel to deal with the aftermath of Gu Hang’s assassination.

I saw four people wearing optical camouflage suddenly took action. They were almost in a state of invisibility before. Not only did the optical camouflage make them invisible visually, but they also had means such as deodorization, thermal masking, and psychic shielding.

When they were completely still, almost no one could detect them.

Even if they took action now, and were very fast, the effects of various camouflage equipment were greatly reduced, but it was still difficult to capture their figures.

Each of the four people fired a shot.

The target was not directly pointed at Gu Hang, but at the open space around him.

Four dark green threads connected from the shooting point and formed a dense net in an instant.

Gu Hang suddenly felt a strong psychic suppression.

The feeling of being targeted was full.

These assassins knew a lot about his intelligence and knew that he was a powerful psychic. Even though Gu Hang must have worn the Black Stone Bracelet when he entered the Terra Palace, they still prepared a more powerful psychic suppression method, that is, to avoid the first wave of assassination attacks failing to complete the task, and then to make up for it.

This wave of attack was really fierce.

They were clearly targeting the top psychic. Even though Gu Hang showed Alpha-level psychic strength by tearing open the subspace rift, he still couldn’t break free. The

psychic shield on his body flashed twice and was on the verge of collapse. The fireworks from the explosion of the courtesy car covered his body again; he couldn’t even continue to maintain the flying posture and almost fell into the fire again.

Seeing that the next fatal blow would follow, Gu Hang had only one last trick left.

He hid in the subspace.

The magic-forbidden web suppressed psychic energy, but it did not completely close the subspace cracks, so Gu Hang could slip in.

Others were no longer in the real world, so all the attacks naturally failed.

But Gu Hang could not stay in his Storm Kingdom for too long. He counted a few seconds in his heart, and at the same time called for power in the Kingdom, thundering on his body, forming a lightning shield, and then he went out again.

These powers brought out of the subspace will still be suppressed by the magic-forbidden web, but will not dissipate immediately, and can play a protective role.

It’s a pity that the subspace cracks are where they are, and Gu Hang can’t tear a hole and go out from somewhere else immediately, otherwise he can flash directly.

When he popped up again, Gu Hang felt the high temperature coming.

This is not the flame produced by the explosion of the courtesy car, but the hot melt!

In the few seconds when they lost their target, the assassins did not do nothing! They directly used hot melt weapons to cover the area where Gu Hang was before.

If Gu Hang didn’t have this layer of thunder protection on his body, he would probably be burned when he came out.

But the good news is that Gu Hang felt that the intensity of the psychic suppression had been greatly reduced.

Looking up again, he saw that one of the four assassins had fallen in a pool of blood. The invisibility cloak on his body was still working, but it couldn’t stop the blood from flowing out, dyeing him bright red. The

one who killed this assassin was Lacrosha.

Gu Hang didn’t come to Holy Terra alone this time.

That doesn’t fit his identity as a powerful leader of a local force. In fact, on the ship he came, there was a whole team serving him. This included a life team responsible for his daily life, and a whole team of secretaries to assist him in his work. He would often communicate with the Pegasus Star Region in astropathic language to guide the general development direction of the alliance. The level of the star communication tower on the Wing Star is not low. Gu Hang’s ship also has a high-level ship-borne star communication tower. With his own strong psychic level and increasingly proficient star communication skills, he has been able to build a stable communication route with the Wing Star in about an hour.

In addition to these daily life and civilian secretaries, Gu Hang also brought a team of bodyguards.

When setting off, the commander of the Martins warband had proposed to send an elite veteran company to be responsible for Gu Hang’s security. However, this proposal was rejected by Gu Hang. It

was a bit high-profile and eye-catching.

Instead, Gu Hang mobilized some good players from the newly formed “Glory Guards”.

All members wore “Servant God” power armor. All members were not only trained to the T1 level, but also enlightened in the [Hero] template.

The combat strength of these Glory Guards can basically tie with the Space Marine recruits in a single duel, or even slightly better. If you really meet a veteran, you can also give it a try.

In addition, a small team of members of the Storm Mage Corps also came.

They are already the most skilled among the organized troops under Gu Hang, except for the Phoenix Warband.

Lakrosa is one of the best. This person who has won the Alliance Hero Medal is almost the first combat hero to receive enlightenment. When he wears power armor, his personal strength is now even better than that of the Phoenix veteran.

Of course, this is almost the upper limit of normal mortals. Even with the blessing of the [Hero] template, it is impossible to improve it to a higher level. Lakrosa is a mortal, and the feedback power armor is different from the real Space Marine power armor. In terms of hard conditions, he can never catch up with a Space Marine. All he can rely on is his powerful combat skills and excellent combat wisdom.

At this time, Lakrosa used all these things to the best of his ability.

When Gu Hang took the courtesy car to the Star Platform, Lakrosa, as a bodyguard, also took two teams of soldiers and rode four hovercrafts to follow Gu Hang’s courtesy car.

The moment Gu Hang was attacked, the elite warriors had already reacted.

Lacroxia was particularly swift.

The four assassins were mainly targeting Gu Hang, and were not good enough to deal with Gu Hang’s bodyguards.

Moreover, in terms of objective conditions, there was a huge difference in the frontal combat capabilities of both sides. The equipment of the assassins was obviously very sophisticated and expensive, but the main skill points were placed on hiding themselves. As for the attributes required for physical bonuses and protective abilities for frontal confrontation, they were definitely slightly insufficient.

At least not as good as the serious feedback power armor ‘Servant of the God’.

Moreover, they obviously did not expect that the bodyguards around Gu Hang, who were just mortals, would have such strong fighting power.

Especially Lacrosse.

After he got out of the car quickly, he used the precision bolt gun in his hand to send multiple bolts to an assassin in an extremely accurate way.

The assassins were surprised to find that their disguise had almost no effect.

However, the postures of these assassins were also extremely flexible and exquisite. The one targeted by Lacrosse was injured when he was caught off guard, but he was still able to dodge. Of course, he could not dodge the bullets, but he could capture Lacrosse’s shooting rhythm and predict the dodge in advance.

However, this was still within Lacrosse’s expectations.

He maintained running while shooting, and his shooting was also forcing the assassin to approach him in the route of dodging. Under the two-way running, the distance between the two was very quickly shortened.

Of course, the assassin also realized this, but he was not afraid.

Lacrosse’s shooting skills were beyond his imagination. He was eager to get into close combat. Even if he couldn’t defeat him quickly, he could still entangle this bodyguard with unexpected strength and delay time for his teammates as much as possible.

The strong camouflage coat, as well as the extremely outstanding body movements and flexibility, made his posture look like dancing. This technology and skills obtained from a certain tribe called the Eldar can be used to a certain extent by these assassins who have undergone special human body transformation.

During the “dance”, he only saw a flash of knife light, and his body was cut into two sections diagonally.

The fine power sword in Lacrosha’s hand was like lightning, leaving him no way to avoid it. His Eldar war dance seemed to have no effect at all.

The assassin’s eyes still had a trace of surprise, as if he was telling that he didn’t understand why this person’s eyes were so vicious and why the sword was so fast, even more outrageous than the Space Marines he had seen.

But Lacrosha would not give him any answer.

He was extremely anxious at the moment, and the grenade launcher in his hand was already firing at another assassin.

This was the scene that Gu Hang saw when he came out of the Kingdom of Storm God.

After the death of an assassin, the magic-forbidden web that blocked the space where Gu Hang was located suddenly became unstable.

At least, it couldn’t lock an Alpha-level psychic.

Gu Hang, who was no longer restrained, held up a psychic shield instead of the lightning body that could resist the heat-melting temperature, rushed out of the heat-melting area, and called for thunder to lock the two assassins. The thunder fell from the sky and killed the two assassins who had realized that the mission had failed.

The last one was left behind by Gu Hang.

He tried to leave a survivor, and the power of psychic energy seized the assassin.

When the magic net completely collapsed, Gu Hang could control every inch of muscle on the guy’s body, ensuring that he could not make any movement.

However, a moment later, the assassin died.

There seemed to be some special mechanism in his body, which was automatically triggered when Gu Hang controlled it, destroying his life from the inside.

Putting down the body, Gu Hang looked into the distance.

That was the direction from which the first two sniper bullets came.

There were five assassins who took action.

Gu Hang looked in another direction, and there were three golden lights coming rapidly. They were the imperial guards riding on hover motorcycles.

The Terra Palace was undoubtedly the territory of the Emperor’s Imperial Guards, and they were fully responsible for the security of the Terra Palace.

The Terra Palace was certainly not an absolutely safe place. As the core of the imperial power field, assassinations and coups were never rare. But most assassinations were carried out in secret. Poison, a dagger in the dark, a silent bullet that came from nowhere, and disappeared quietly after the operation, leaving only a corpse.

In this case, the Imperial Guards did not care.

What exactly was the Imperial Guards protecting in the Terra Palace? No one knew, but it was not protecting the high lords, let alone ordinary imperial officials.

But who made the assassination against Gu Hang become a forced killing?

The first bullet did meet the definition of assassination. The sniper hiding in the dark fired a deadly and silent bullet. If it succeeded, Gu Hang would be like the countless imperial officials who died in the Terra Palace covering the entire Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. No matter how many storms will happen in the future, it has nothing to do with the dead.

But that bullet did not succeed, and the second bullet that destroyed the entire ceremonial car did not succeed, and the four masters who were ambushed did not succeed.

The noise is getting louder and louder.

The Imperial Guards can ignore silent assassinations, but explosions and deafening bolt gunshots are not okay.

What’s more, there was such a strong, unrecorded psychic reaction!

There were psychics in the palace who didn’t wear black stone bracelets. After all, there were still some psychic equipment in the palace that needed to be maintained. Especially the Star Language Tower Cluster and the Imperial Star Torch.

However, those who could legally use psychic energy inside the Terra Palace were all permitted and registered.

And what was happening now was definitely not registered.

The reaction of the Imperial Guards was very fast. It had only been two minutes since the assassination began. The Imperial Guards were almost on the scene.

Should we trust these Imperial Guards?

Gu Hang hesitated slightly, and his body turned into a flash of lightning, heading towards the position of the previous sniper.

That man was also retreating, and fully activated his invisibility. However, the furious Gu Hang still found him out, and tried to control him again with psychic power.

This time, he changed his method. Controlling the body would trigger suicide, and what about using soul spikes to knock him out?

It didn’t work either.

The self-understanding mechanism still happened.

Gu Hang could only regretfully bring the body back to the crime scene.

At this moment, the three imperial guards also arrived.

They were confronting the Glory Guards led by Lakrosa, and shouted loudly to lay down their weapons. Lakrosa and the others certainly couldn’t surrender so easily, and they argued about something.

Gu Hang hurriedly told Lakrosa to obey.

Why are you fighting with the imperial guards?

If you keep pushing, these golden-armored corn spirits will not show mercy.

With Gu Hang’s order, Lakrosa and others put down their weapons.

However, the three imperial guards did not relax their vigilance, and all their eyes were fixed on Gu Hang.

They saw the broken black stone bracelet on Gu Hang’s wrist, and they were very surprised and fearful.

Being able to break free from the black stone bracelet is definitely not the level that the A-level psychic registered by Gu Hang can achieve. In fact, even S-level can’t do it, only Alpha can reach this level.

However, Alpha-level psychic power cannot be stably controlled by humans, and Alpha-level psychics are unstable.

But Gu Hang doesn’t seem to have such signs.

Although his psychic power looked strong, it did not reach the Alpha level.

The imperial guards did not dare to be careless. The leader ordered Gu Hang: “Stop all resistance and accept our investigation.”

“Of course.” Gu Hang cooperated and dissipated his psychic power.

However, when the imperial guard stepped forward, Gu Hang also took a step back.

He said: “No offense, but I just faced an assassination. I will not ask why there is such a big flaw in the security work in the palace, but please forgive me for being careful. How can I be sure that you are real imperial guards and not fake ones?”

“You have no right to resist.”

These golden corn spirits are really arrogant.

But Gu Hang did not intend to confront them head-on.

“I will not violate your rules and will cooperate with your investigation. I have no intention of resisting, but please consider my suggestion: let’s all wait here. With such a big commotion here, the news should have spread. When more people come, we should be able to get to the bottom of the whole thing.”

At this point, Gu Hang paused for a moment, not intending to be weak to the end, and showed a little toughness: “Otherwise, I can only think that you are in the same group with the assassin.”

The imperial guards really hesitated.

“Stop here, no one present is allowed to leave!”

“Of course, I have no intention of leaving.”

…

After that, Gu Hang, Lacroxia, a group of guards, and three imperial guards looked at each other in silence and waited.

The three imperial guards called for support from a higher level, and Gu Hang didn’t have to do anything. This place was actually very close to the Star Platform, and they must know what happened here.

While waiting, Gu Hang’s mind was turning rapidly. He was thinking about the current situation and how it would evolve in the future.

There is no doubt that Gu Hang was under a fatal threat this time. The Assassin’s Court’s actions were fierce enough, and they were arranged completely according to the assassination of a controllable Alpha-level psychic.

This was already a very outrageous arrangement. On the surface, Gu Hang’s psychic strength was only A-level. Although as long as the intelligence was a little stronger and knew his deeds in the Dragon Eagle Star Region, it would be known that he was not just A. But the most we can guess is that he is S, or S+, no more.

Alpha-class psychics are uncontrollable, this is an iron rule.

However, the Assassin’s Court still treated Gu Hang as an Alpha-class psychic, which can be said to be overly cautious.

If Gu Hang was really an ordinary Alpha-class psychic, he would have died under the combination of the third wave of the magic-forbidden web and the heat melt.

Is this the Assassin’s Court’s limit?

Obviously not. If they wanted to, they could organize many similar actions, or even more threatening actions. Can Gu Hang withstand one or two assassinations, or countless assassinations by the Assassin’s Court?

Impossible.
