“Is it someone from the Jiang family? They also said they were from the Owl Dragon Star System,” the Captain added.
“The Jiang family?” The female Starship pilot seemed to recall the matter. She snorted coldly and said, “The Jiang family? Heh heh, that woman was indeed once our Lord's fiancée.
But a year ago, when our Dragon Owl Territory was in crisis, she and her family left the Owl Dragon Star System entirely.
Now she dares to claim to be our Lord's fiancée? How shameless.”
Hearing the female Starship pilot's words, the Captain suddenly understood and looked at these so-called Jiang family members with even more disdain.
“I know how to handle it. Thank you for your time,” the Captain cut off communication. He snorted coldly, looking at the Jiang family members: “You people really have thick skin.
When our Lord was in trouble, you all scurried away.
Now that he's here to save your lives, you remember that you're a family from the Owl Dragon Star System?
And you, woman, you remember that you're that Lord's fiancée?
Truly shameless.
What I despise most are you fence-sitters! Bah.”
The Captain's words were like knives piercing Jiang Shasha's chest. She was so ashamed and furious that she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
“I'll say it one last time: regardless of your identity, if you want to enter, do as I just said!” The Captain said without ceremony.
He then muttered, “If it weren't for our Lord's magnanimity, I would have left you ungrateful wretches to fend for yourselves on this planet.”
Facing this sarcasm,
The Jiang family members, though angry, could only endure it.
“Unload all equipment, everyone out of the vehicle.” Jiang Xiong, the family head, could only prepare to abandon some of their possessions, resigned.
After all, at this moment, saving their lives was the most important thing!
The Jiang family members got out of the vehicle one by one, and after a thorough inspection, they entered the evacuation point.
It was clear that after learning of the Jiang family's'special status,' the soldiers assisting with the evacuation treated them very poorly.
“Our Lord must have been blind to have ever considered a fiancée like you.”
“It's good that the engagement was broken; it saves our Lord from being harmed by someone like her.”
Some female soldiers pointed at Jiang Shasha, not bothering to hide their words.
Jiang Shasha, mortified, put on a black cloth to cover her face and quickened her pace.
And so, the Jiang family entered the evacuation point.
This was a place similar to a large outdoor stadium, and at this moment, hundreds of thousands of people were densely gathered inside.
This was perhaps why no one was allowed to bring weapons or excess equipment inside.
With so many people, if someone carried a weapon and a conflict broke out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
If other personal belongings were also brought in, this place might not even be able to accommodate all these people.
The Jiang family finally arrived at an empty corner. After registering their biological information, they began to receive numbers.
“Should we draw evacuation slots as a family unit?” Jiang Xiong, the family head, looked at his clansmen.
But these clansmen now avoided his gaze.
“Um... I think it's better to draw one by one.”
“Yeah, didn't they say that with more people, the probability of being selected is lower?”
“Let's form groups of a few people each.”
The collateral branches of the Jiang family seemed to be deliberately distancing themselves from Jiang Xiong, the family head, and others.
After all, who knew if that Lord, upon learning that Jiang Xiong, Jiang Shasha, and others were here, would trip them up or make things difficult for them?
So, at this time, it was better to draw a clear line between themselves and that family.
Jiang Xiong, the family head, said no more; he knew what these people were thinking.
Finally, he only received a number for his immediate family unit: his wife, children, and elderly parents.
All they could do now was wait.
Fifteen hours later, the global broadcast sounded.
“The first batch of evacuees, totaling 5 million people, is now ready.
Numbers are being drawn. Those whose numbers are drawn, please raise your wrist terminals at the evacuation point to identify yourselves.”
This broadcast repeated continuously.
And at this moment, almost everyone was staring at their handheld terminals.
In this era, basically everyone had a handheld terminal, it was just a matter of whether it was advanced or not.
Within approximately one minute, people successively received evacuation messages.
“Code KTY20371, you have been selected as part of the first batch of evacuees. Please prepare for evacuation according to the Staff's instructions within ten minutes.”
A man not far from the Jiang family excitedly raised his hand: “Me! It's me! I've been chosen!”
Within this evacuation point, hundreds of people were successively selected.
And the Staff had already operated a hover car, hovering above everyone's heads, verifying the identities of the chosen lucky ones, and then preparing to take them to an Interstellar Transport Ship that had arrived overhead at some unknown time.
Under these circumstances, some people gradually began to lose control of their emotions.
“Why not me?!”
“I refuse! I am of noble status; I should be evacuated first!”
“I don't want to stay in this damned place, please take me with you!”
Facing these emotionally distraught people,
The Captain in charge of this evacuation point immediately raised his Laser Gun and fired a few shots into the sky. At the same time, the soldiers responsible for security aimed at those causing trouble.
“Warning! If anyone else riots or makes noise, they will be immediately expelled from the evacuation point. No re-entry allowed for three days!”
Facing the warning, the vast majority of people began to quiet down.
But there were also some lunatics, even preparing to seize weapons from the soldiers around them.
But the next second, their bodies were pierced by Laser Guns.
“Last reminder: do not make any threatening moves, or you will bear the consequences!” the Captain said coldly.
Soon, this batch of evacuees successfully reached the Interstellar Transport Ship overhead.
The Jiang family watched those leaving with envy.
Jiang Ziwen, however, was now cowering in a corner, biting his finger, and said in horror, “Only five million people are evacuated at a time. Even if this planet is attacked by the Zerg, there are still over a billion people.
This... this simply can't be completed!
When the Zerg Fleet launches a large-scale attack, the remaining people will be abandoned!”
Patriarch Jiang Xiong sighed; he also saw this situation.
To evacuate everyone on the planet was basically an impossible task.
“Jiang Shasha! It's all your fault! If you hadn't humiliated Zhao Chen back then, leading to the destruction of your relationship,
Now I'd be his brother-in-law, and how could I still be here waiting for some lottery!” Jiang Ziwen stared at Jiang Shasha with bloodshot eyes.
Jiang Shasha looked at her younger brother in shock.
Jiang Ziwen walked towards Jiang Shasha and said frantically, “Go beg Zhao Chen right now, kneel before him, and use all your means to ask for his forgiveness!
Just say that as long as he's willing to save us, you're willing to be his concubine, even if it means being a bitch!”
Slap
Jiang Shasha slapped her younger brother in furious shame. Her heart was utterly broken at this moment; she could endure anything outsiders said about her when she was at North Star Academy.
Now even her own family was saying such things about her?
Moreover, when her younger brother said these words, her respected father's eyes actually showed a wavering expression!
At this moment, she was utterly disappointed in her family and relatives.
...
Meanwhile, in a certain Star System, a fleet of noble Interstellar Transport Ships, which were leisurely evacuating, was intercepted by three T3 Blizzards.
“Your Interstellar Transport Ships have been requisitioned by our Xiaolong Fleet. You have no right to protest. If you resist, we will take necessary military action to control your Starships!”
