The Votan quietly floats in the warehouse, seemingly awaiting the decision of fate. Kyle and Diego appear somewhat lost and helpless inside the spacecraft. In the emergency situation, Kyle becomes more agitated and turns to Diego, urgently asking, "Do we have any weapon systems on our spacecraft? Perhaps we can use it to open this damn iron gate?"
Just as Diego is about to answer Kyle's question, a cold and mocking voice suddenly comes through the external speaker, shocking the entire warehouse: "Arthur Grayson! Finally caught you... and Kyle..." The voice of Selena·Avis, carrying a displeasing sharpness and arrogance.
Diego's face instantly turned serious, with a hint of anger and helplessness in his eyes. "Selena..." he muttered under his breath, then turned to Kyle with a more solemn expression. "We need to come up with a solution quickly, or we really won't stand a chance this time."
When Kyle heard Selena Evans call out Arthur Grayson's name over the intercom, his face turned pale in an instant. He turned to Diego with wide eyes and a trembling voice, asking, "Are you... Are you Arthur Grayson?"
Diego's face showed a hint of frustration and annoyance as he gritted his teeth and replied, "Now is not the time to discuss that, Kyle. We have more urgent matters to deal with."
A wave of confusion swept through Kyle's heart, and his eyes flashed with anger and incomprehension. "Arthur Grayson... that name... it destroyed my family!" Kyle was on the verge of collapse, his voice filled with anger and pain.
When Diego approached Kyle and prepared to grab his shoulder, Kyle's emotions had reached a boiling point. His movements were swift and decisive, drawing a broken sword from his waist with the sharp tip pressed against Diego's neck.
Diego's actions instantly froze, a hint of surprise and wariness flashing in his eyes. " Kyle, calm down!" Diego's voice mixed with pleading and anxiety.
Kyle's eyes flickered with anger and the struggle of pain. His voice was low and firm: "You... Arthur Grayson, it's you who destroyed my family! Who are you really?"
Diego remained calm, not daring to move recklessly, and tried to appease Kyle: " Kyle, I know you have many questions, a lot of resentment. But right now, our lives are in danger. I promise, once we escape safely, I will tell you everything."
Kyle's hand trembled slightly as the broken sword pressed against Diego's skin. "Is your word worth believing?" His voice was filled with distrust and anger.
Diego looked seriously into Kyle's eyes. "I give you my word, Kyle. I know my past actions have caused irreparable harm to you. But now, we must cooperate, or neither of us will have a chance to leave here alive."
Kyle took a deep breath, and after a brief moment of thought, slowly lowered the sword in his hand, but his eyes still remained full of vigilance. He took a step back and said seriously, "Alright, I will give you this chance. But once we escape, you must explain everything clearly."
Diego nodded, a hint of gratitude showing on his face. "Thank you, Kyle," he said with a smile. "I promise I will tell you everything." Then he turned back to the control panel, focused on finding a way to escape. Kyle remained vigilant, ready to respond to any potential danger at any moment.
As the scene outside the The Votan front window grew increasingly tense, Kyle and Diego could feel the pressure and danger in the air outside the warehouse. A large contingent of Darius army soldiers surrounded them like a wall, each fully armed and ready to fire at any moment. Standing among them was Selena Aviles, her eyes sharp like an eagle's, radiating deep hatred towards Kyle and Diego.
Selena's gaze bore into The Votan with a sharpness that seemed to project all her resentment and frustration onto the ship. A sardonic smile played at the corner of her mouth, and then she suddenly waved her arm, giving the command to attack.
Following that, the soldiers quickly raised their weapons, aiming them all at The Votan. The air seemed to thicken with tension, and each soldier's expression was stern and serious as they prepared to attack The Votan under Selena's command.
Suddenly, The Votan's communication system was forcefully invaded, and Selena's voice pierced through the loudspeaker: "Arthur and Kyle, you remnants of the resistance, why don't you surrender now? If you give up resistance now, I can guarantee you will receive better treatment and rewards."
Kyle heard this and anger surged in his heart. He couldn't bear being misunderstood as a member of the resistance. "I have never been part of any resistance!" he retorted loudly, his eyes flashing with determination.
Diego also showed a hint of anger on his face, but more of it was calm and resolute. He quickly operated the console of The Votan to find an opportunity to escape. He knew that Selena's words were just a psychological warfare, aimed at making them give up resistance.
Selena's voice once again pierced through the communication system of The Votan, her tone revealing a hint of sarcasm and provocation: "Arthur Grayson... You can't be that loyal to the resistance, can you? This trade should be a big loss for you. Not only did you fail to deliver the weapons, but you also indirectly led to the complete destruction of the resistance organization on Sunset star... Arthur, oh Arthur, even if you manage to escape, how do you think the resistance will see you?"
Diego's expression became even more serious at these words, his eyes flashing with anger and determination. He did not directly respond to Selena, but instead focused on piloting the spacecraft, trying to find an opportunity to escape.
Kyle heard these words and began to doubt Diego. He wasn't sure if Diego was really the Arthur Grayson they were talking about, a space merchant who might betray the resistance.
