2711. The last hope

Carl-Kestis struggled desperately, but to no avail. The Force in the hands of Augus became more and more powerful, making it impossible for him to struggle at all.

He said with a ferocious face, "We gave you everything! Everything! But you untouchables are not grateful. What's the use of keeping such people? You should die now!"

"Let him go!" Aayla Secura also rushed forward. She raised her hand and grabbed her own Lightsaber, then stabbed Augus in the back.

However, the situation was completely controlled by Augus. He threw Carl to the ground and then struck back with a sword! Ella Secura was caught off guard, and was immediately pierced through the abdomen by the sword!

But even so, Ella Secura still rushed over, hugged Augus's shoulders, and roared loudly, "Run, run!"

Carl-Kestis was almost in a daze. He didn't know what he should do. He got up from the ground, feeling pain all over his body.

"Run!" Ella Secura shouted with her last strength, "We can't let Tang Xiao get that memory, run!"

After struggling for a while, Carl-Kestis finally stood up from the ground. However, the moment he stood up, he met Augus's extremely ferocious and terrifying eyes, "You. Want to run. Can you run away?"

Carl-Kestis gritted his teeth. He knew that he was now in a desperate situation. A force that he didn't know where came from suddenly rushed out. He roared to the sky, and a powerful the Force suddenly spurted out!

This force was so powerful that Augus was caught off guard and couldn't help but retreat.

He reacted quickly and kicked the dying Ella Secura aside. He picked up his Lightsaber and slashed at Kaal-Kestis.

However, at this moment, he suddenly remembered the highest order from Tang Xiao - for Carl-Kestis, keep them alive!

At this moment, Augus's sword slowed down for 0.1 seconds. In this 0.1 second, the small robot BD-1 who had been with Carl-Kestis unknowingly jumped behind Augus and stabbed his spine with an electric shock device!

"Ah!!" Augus suddenly screamed and stiffened.

At this moment, Carl-Kestis seized this last opportunity and chopped it down with one sword! Suddenly, the right half of Augus's face and entire right hand were chopped off!

"Let's go!" Carl-Kestis helped up the dying Ella Sekula, found a car from the side, chopped open the cockpit with a sword, then skillfully connected the circuit, and drove away in Speeder.

Soon, Star Squad several other people also wearing blue clothes ran over. Looking at Augus, whose right half of his face and right hand had been chopped off, a woman exclaimed, "Quick, the captain is injured, call a doctor!"

"Where is the medical robot? Come here quickly!!"

While they were in a hurry, on the other side, Zhang Xucheng of Sky Squad Codename Sky Eye also sighed and said, "I lost track of them. Where is Tania?"

"Yeah." Shen Yuanhao said slowly, "Quinlan-Vos also ran away. But he didn't feel well. He was also injured and shouldn't be able to run far."

"In that case, let's narrow the encirclement. Although Augus was seriously injured. But this time, we will not let them run away." Zhang Xucheng said calmly.

At the same time, in a cutting-edge hospital in Annaj Planet, there was an extremely angry roar, "Carl-Kestis, I will kill you! I swear, I will kill you! Even if you run to the end of the galaxy, I will kill you!! I swear, you must die!!!"

Carl-Kestis took the dying Ella Sekula and hid in a warehouse. This was a place where fruits were stored and it was very humid. Carl found a few apples and fed them to Ella Secura, which somewhat restored her strength, but the situation was still very bad.

At night, Carl-Kestis sneaked out, stole some medical supplies from a hospital run by Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group, and then tried his best to help Ella Sekula relieve his injuries.

However, this was injured by Lightsaber, and it was a penetrating injury. The plasma blade was also attached to Augus's powerful the Force. It can be said that it is a miracle that Ella Secura survived. Her rich experience in the most dangerous places allowed her to avoid the most fatal parts at the last moment and use the Force to protect her important organs, so she survived.

But even so, she was not far from death. Those first-aid sprays stolen from Umbrella Hospital can only temporarily seal the wound and slow down the infection, but they cannot remove the the Force burns remaining in the body.

Carl watched as Ella Secura's breathing became weaker and weaker, and dark red cracks appeared faintly under the skin, which were signs of Augus the Force corrosion. He held her hand tightly, closed his eyes, and tried to use his the Force to clear away those hidden wounds.

He understood that Ayla Secura was injured to give him a chance to escape. Whether the purpose was to save him or to prevent the Kyber Crystal he was carrying from falling into the hands of Tang Xiao, this was a great kindness.

With the injection of the Force, the the Force burns in Ella Secura's body eased... However, the terrible battle to escape from death just now was still vivid in his mind. Soon, Carl-Kestis was swallowed up by fear, his whole body trembled, and the Force also became confused.

At this time, he felt a coolness in his palm, and heard Ella Secura's weak but firm voice. "Don't be afraid... Kestis, the Force is with you." She reluctantly Qiang opened his eyes, and a trace of pure the Force slowly flowed into his body. Carl was suddenly shocked. The chaotic the Force gradually calmed down and his breathing became more stable.

Carl-Kestis took a long breath and started repairing Ella's burns again. Finally, Ella Secura's breathing gradually stabilized, the dark red cracks began to fade, and the first aid spray finally began to take effect. But she still needs further treatment. Such injuries cannot be easily recovered. She needs to enter Bacta tank for complete recovery.

The night was getting darker, the sound of wind outside the warehouse was mixed with the lingering sound of distant alarms, and Ella Secura had gradually fallen asleep. Carl-Kestis stood beside her and pondered for a long time. Finally, he took out his communicator and entered a series of familiar frequency codes - Zhang Guomin.

However, just when he was about to press the send button, a hand in the darkness suddenly stretched out and grasped his wrist, with a steady but non-hostile force.

"Sending a signal for help now will only attract more pursuers." A low voice sounded in the shadows, Quinlan-Vos slowly walked out of the darkness, "Twilight Covenant has laid a dragnet, and this kind of reckless communication will expose the location."

"But..." Carl wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Quinlan-Vos.

"I'll handle it. I still have some resources in hand, and I should be able to help you conduct an encrypted communication." Quinlan-Vos said, taking out a personal micro terminal and operating it.

In the sky outside, a spaceship that was constantly playing advertisements flew by. Quinlan-Vos pressed the keyboard fiercely, hijacking the advertising signal band as a cover, and the encrypted frequency band was instantly embedded in it, and the communication was connected.

"The signal has been disguised, and the communication window is only three minutes." Quinlan-Vos whispered, staring at the interference waveform on the terminal screen.

Carl took a deep breath and quickly switched to the channel. He moved his mouth and finally spoke, saying very dryly, "The boss... it's me..."

[Carl? Are you crazy? Now the whole Annaj Planet is your wanted order... what on earth are you doing?]

Hearing Zhang Guomin's thick voice, Carl-Kestis almost cried, but she still calmed down and gritted her teeth and said, "I am now in the fruit warehouse No. Machika district, Passion Fruit Company C."

When he told the address, Quinlan-Vos's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but then he sighed and walked away.

"I think my bounty should be quite large. Kingdom of Dawn is always like this, and they will definitely honor it." Carl-Kestis said, "With this money, you can buy a new Speeder... Don't forget to give Mark and the others a bonus..."

[Tell me what you want, child...] Zhang Guomin sighed.

"I got a crystal... ancient Sith Empire's relic. Tang Xiao wants to get it, and the evil secrets recorded in it..." Carl-Kestis said briefly.

The situation is much better and I can take care of myself. I just can't sleep at night and it hurts wherever I put it...
