Ja Pampered by the Alpha General

Chapter 222 Modoka

Everyone: “?”

Was he smiling?

He actually had the nerve to smile?

For a second, every person watching thought Orion Ashford had finally lost his mind.

Only Julian Shaw withdrew the foot he had already stepped into the room with, clearly unhappy, then slapped the wolf cub on the head.

The wolf cub: “Awoo…”

At last, in the eyes of the entire Empire, the unforgivable and possibly insane Orion ended the livestrean That same night, a massive arrest operation swept through the entire Saint Solaris Galaxy.

It was not limited to the Second and Third Legions.

Strictly speaking, the two legions barely had to act.

Prince Harold, parliament, and the Council of Lords would order local governments to move. The local governments would mobilize armed forces. In soïne areas, even ordinary citizens would be organized to help with arrests.

People sympathized with the parasitized.

But if the parasitized lost control, they could become the Empire’s end.

Once one man stood out to become the target, everyone else could fold away their guilt, pity, and reluctance.

They could throw every sin onto him.

Even the families who pushed their loved ones out, reported them, and personally sent them onto starships could tell themselves the same thing.

They had no choice.

It was Orion.

‘Orion had threatened them.

Orion was the root of all evil.

Everything was Orion’s fault.

The

hought that.

Chapter 222 Modoka

The people escorting their own relatives away thought that.

Even the parasitized who walked onto transport ships by themselves repeated only one name.

Orion Ashford.

That damned Orion Ashford.

They had better never get a chance.

If they had to die, they would drag Orion down first.

They would fight him to the end.

With that explosive despair packed into their chests, batches of parasitized people were carried by st to the barren planet Modoka.

Nothing grew there.

The temperature swung violently between day and night.

Yellow sand filled the sky without end.

And yet…

“Why are there so many modular wards here? Why am I in a hospital bed? Wasn’t I supposed to be… cl out?”

Inside one of the wards, Talia Wynn woke with a violent start.

She looked around in terror.

Everywhere she looked, she saw faces. Some familiar. Most strangers

Capsule–like hospital beds stood in orderly rows, stretching so far she could not see the end.

“We are not dead. Oh my God, Mom, we are alive…”

“There is no signal. I already checked. We cannot contact the outside.”

“Is this really Modoka? It looks nothing like the pictures on StarNet.”

Questions rose from every corner of the ward.

Talia did not search for her family.

She was the only parasitized person in her household.

She had not been dragged here either.

When the arrest team arrived, she had climbed onto the prisoner transport herself.

She did not have the courage to kill herself.

She did not want to become food for insectoids.

And she did not want to harm her family.

When the starship put her into dormancy, she had even thought that maybe being “cleared” was the deserved.

Then, while she sat frozen on the bed. a cold mechanical voice rang through the entire ward.

“Warning. Warning. Greetings, parasitized individuals of Ward One. I am Modo, the central Al of M Modular Field Hospital. The first round of experimental treatment will begin shortly. On behalf of th Second and Third Legions, Modo is recruiting 60,000 volunteers from all wards. Repeat. Recruiting volunteers from all wards.”

A modular field hospital?

Experimental treatment?

Volunteers?

The ward fell quiet for a beat.

Then it exploded.

Someone laughed coldly.

“So this is the elimination plan. They want volunteers to walk into the incinerator.”

“Let us leave! Let us out!”

Modo’s voice did not warm by even a degree.

“Warning. Volunteers, please proceed to the ward entrance immediately. Lieutenant Colonel Adrian Whitmore is waiting.”

“Warning. Volunteer assembly countdown: thirty minutes. Countdown begins now.”

“I am not going! This is murder. They are treating human lives like trash!”

“Exactly. Do they think we are stupid?”

“I want to see which idiot is so eager to die that they actually go. If Orion Ashford cannot be trusted, why would anyone trust Adrian Whitmore?”

Then Talia stood up.

Under countless eyes, she found the signs projected by the ward terminal on the wall and took her first step

The choice was hard.

She still made it.

Behind her came a wave of voices.

Chapter 222 Modoka

“Girl, do not be stupid.”

“Are you crazy?”

“Look. There really is an idiot.”

Talia walked faster.

Then faster.

Then she broke into a run.

She was afraid she would regret it.

Afraid fear would catch her.

But she was a medical student.

She had been on field missions.

She had faced danger before.

And once, she had been saved by the Fifth Regiment, First Division of the Fourth Legion.

The officer who saved her had blue–gray eyes.

He told her his name was Adrian Whitmore.

So she wanted to believe one more time.

She wanted to believe the people who had protected them again and again.

Talia was not the only one.

Others stood across Ward One.

Then Ward Two.

Ward Three.

Ward Four.

Students still young enough to have bright futures.

Old people already near the end of life.

Hard–faced men.

Ordinary women, some so thin they looked fragile.

Different ages.

Different faces.
