CHAPTER 430: CHAPTER 430: COMMITTED A BLUNDER AND WAS EXILED HERE

"Just know that Xia Huangyu is dead, and no one can leave Helheim Star alive, even deploying a Star Destroyer Weapon to annihilate Helheim Star will come at a cost for everyone."

However, Lin Fu didn’t agree with these words, "I remember Mervin’s sister was killed by kidnappers, those people are all madmen who don’t care if their bad deeds will affect others."

Nolan fell silent, there was precedent for this.

At that moment, the red flames in the sky vanished, and the reddened sky darkened once more, returning to eternal night.

This meant that Xia Huangyu had either died or fallen into the hands of the enemy.

Either outcome was not good.

Because if the enemy had dealt with Xia Huangyu, they would free up their hands to deal with them next.

Anton, who had gone out, also returned, bringing news of Xia Huangyu’s defeat.

Lin Fu ended the call with Nolan and ordered the team to hasten their advance.

The shadow side had no sunlight, an eternal solitude, and the prolonged cold began to cause mental difficulties for many people.

Gradually, many began to fall behind, and some wandered off without realizing it.

Lin Fu’s mood also became increasingly despondent, speaking very little, and the atmosphere of the team grew ever more silent, mechanically struggling in combat, fighting, advancing, desperately carving out a path to survive.

As the military academy students reached the coast of the Ice Sea, the prisoners on Helheim Star had also consolidated their resources.

The leader of the first major force was a man named Jesse with a mysterious background, having been imprisoned on Helheim for over a decade, always very strong. It was he who had collaborated with the people from the Royal Starship Academy and then turned around to stab Xia Huangyu in the back.

Two-thirds of the bases, prisons, and temporary supply stations on Helheim were under Jesse’s control.

The scattered prisoners had also been integrated by him.

Now there were no independent individuals on Helheim, one had to pick a side; choosing neither side would only result in being attacked by the three major forces, with death as the only outcome.

After some thought, Horace chose to join Jesse, the leader of the largest force, but since his time on Helheim was too short and he’d kept a low profile, no one knew his real strength, so he was at the bottom of Jesse’s forces, not even allocated a decent weapon, and was assigned to a guarding duty.

Just as he started his shift, he saw Xia Huangyu, who was being held in solitary confinement.

Xia Huangyu barely looked human anymore, the solitary cells originally set up by the Empire on Helheim for serious felons now held an imperial noble.

The prisoner, on the other hand, was outside.

Even Horace found it ironic.

"Hey, are you dead?"

Xia Huangyu struggled to open his eyes, finally making out who was standing in front of him, "Horace? How come you’re here?"

"Got into trouble, was banished here."

Xia Huangyu’s expression morphed into a mocking smile, "Heh, heh, heh... why don’t I believe a word of that?"

"Believe it or not, up to you, but I’m telling the truth." Every time Horace thought about his own carelessness nearly killing Lin Fu, his face turned ugly. Recently, Randall had sent him a letter through special channels, relishing in his misfortune, telling him he might never be able to return.

Horace didn’t understand what Randall meant, did he really deserve to be punished twice for one mistake?

That’s just inhumane!

"Hey, how’s Lin Fu?" Horace had estimated his opportunity to approach Xia Huangyu, wanting to find out Lin Fu’s situation in advance, to protect her when they joined up, redeeming himself for his mistakes.
