Huang Ke only heard the details after the call ended.
News about Dukao?
Huang Ke looked at Morgana in the office.
Morgana is now dressed in white from the North Star Aerospace Industry Group, with light makeup on her face, and she looks nothing like the former Demon Queen.
But Morgana's body is, after all, a fourth-generation divine body. Even without the help of the dark dimension, she wouldn't be so deaf that she couldn't hear a phone call from several meters away.
Huang Ke looked directly at Morgana, his meaning clear.
Ducao?
Didn't you kidnap him?
Morgana also looked at Huang Ke, her eyes filled with doubt.
It seems to be a response.
Yes! I've kidnapped him!
Huang Ke raised an eyebrow, as if asking: Where did Lianfeng get the information about Dukao?
Morgana continued to stare straight at Huang Ke, her eyes clear, as if in response: How would I know?
After a moment of silence in the office, Huang Ke finally called Lianfeng back, and Morgana also moved closer.
After the call connected, Huang Ke immediately said to Lian Feng, "You have three minutes to explain where Dukao's information came from, where he is, and what your purpose is."
On the other end of the phone, Lianfeng sighed, feeling helpless.
She managed to learn of Dukao's situation, but there was nothing she could do to help him.
If the news wasn't relayed to Huang Ke, they could only watch helplessly as General Dukao awaited his death.
If he doesn't speak up, Dukao will die, and he is bound to die.
He said he might not die. What if Huang Ke spared General Dukao's life out of consideration for Qiangwei?
Therefore, Lianfeng made her choice and told Huang Ke!
"Mr. Huang, since yesterday, the Denuo-3 has detected an abnormal radio frequency band originating from the trench of an island nation..."
Before she could finish speaking, Morgana's expression changed.
Island nation trench?
Devil One is definitely there!
But when did Demon One become so weak? It couldn't even withstand the scan from Denor III?
No, scanning doesn't exist anymore.
But isn't Dukao in jail?
Where did the radio waves come from?
Did the triangular prism bring Ducao along with marine life during their evolution?
Did Ducato also evolve?
While the Devil One could block dark information, it didn't actually make any special adjustments to radio waves.
After all, this thing had absolutely no impact on combat power in the era of theocracy.
Huang Ke noticed the change in Morgana's expression and realized that the news seemed to be true.
Unexpectedly, Morgana didn't send Dukao to Kunza, but left him on Earth, even imprisoning him in the ocean trench.
Huang Ke continued listening to Lian Feng's report: "Based on the analysis of the radio wave content, it was found to be Morse code, which is used internationally on Earth. After further analysis, it was discovered that it was left by General Dukao."
"The message read, 'I am Dukao, trapped in Devil One, lacking water and food, SOS.' Not many people on Earth know about the existence of Devil One, and not many know that General Dukao was taken away by the Devil. That's why I can confirm that the message was indeed sent by General Dukao."
Lianfeng finished speaking there, and Huang Ke had also finished listening.
I roughly understood what was going on.
Is Dukao starving or dying of thirst?
Huang Ke looked at Morgana with a strange expression.
It's obvious that you've started this matter but ended it rather anticlimactically, hasn't it?
Capturing Dukao was indeed a brilliant move.
This would allow Dukao to evade the judgment of Earth's civilization, and keeping Dukao in hand would be beneficial for future contact with Rose.
This is more beneficial than harmful for Morgana.
Huang Ke wouldn't risk falling out over something as trivial as Dukao and Morgana.
But now, Dukao is trapped inside Devil One and is almost starving to death, which is so out of character for Morgana.
Morgana muttered to herself, "That shouldn't be the case. I considered the possibility of the Dark Dimension being destroyed, activated the backup energy reactor for Demon One, and set up a program to regularly feed water and food to the prison where Dukao is imprisoned. How could he have starved or died of thirst?"
Morgana was puzzled. Could it be that Dukao had really evolved?
The amount of water and food I calculated based on Dukao II's body was not enough to meet his needs.
The more Morgana thought about it, the more something seemed off. She continued to mutter to herself, "That shouldn't be the case. Besides, where would he get the means to send a message? My cell can hold three generations of people, there's no reason it can't hold Dukao."
The more Morgana thought about it, the more something seemed off, and she really wanted to go back to Devil One.
but……
The message has been delivered to Huang Ke.
If I were to rashly go back, relocate Demon One, and then tell Huang Kedu Kao that he was no longer in Huang Kedu Kao's hands, that would be a slap in the face.
For the sake of the rose, I will stay on Earth for a long time.
Huang Ke looked at Morgana and said, "Dukao has done something that hurts the feelings of the people of Earth. This is a fundamental mistake, and he must be brought to justice."
On matters of principle, Huang Ke is not going to back down.
Even if it causes Rose to object, we must never give in.
Matters of principle concern the longevity of a civilization, and no exceptions should be made.
Morgana's expression was full of helplessness as she said, "I'll go back to Demon One."
Morgana thought about it and decided to do something.
After all, she was sincere towards Qiangwei, and she didn't want to see Qiangwei sad, even if Huang Kezhen's trial and execution of Dukao would be beneficial to her.
As soon as Morgana stood up, Huang Ke made up his mind and said, "Let Rose go with you."
Upon hearing Huang Ke's words, Morgana immediately cursed, "Damn it! Isn't that unnecessary? Do you have any humanity? Even I, a demon, wouldn't do something like this, and you actually..."
Huang Ke interrupted Morgana, saying, "My personal phone number is confidential. Lianfeng doesn't have the authority to get my number. Guess who gave her my number?"
Chapter 171 Take Responsibility for Your Actions
Morgana understood immediately after Huang Ke said that.
If Lianfeng knew about Dukao's whereabouts, she would never think of contacting Huang Ke.
After all, Lianfeng is a Deno, and her primary goal must be to rescue Dukao.
The problem is that after the Dark Dimension was destroyed, Lianfeng's power was simply insufficient to allow her to rescue Dukao.
The vast majority of the Denorians have already left Earth, and the products of Lianfeng's Black Wall Project are all equipment similar to the Black Armor, designed to serve super soldiers.
To rescue Dukao, she could only rely on external forces.
Therefore, it's highly likely that one of her contacts is Rose.
Given Rose's current position at North Star Aerospace Industry Group, and even the relationship between Rose and Morgana.
If Lianfeng can contact Qiangwei and Qiangwei is willing to rescue Dukao, there are naturally a thousand ways to deceive Huang Ke and go to the island trench to complete the rescue.
But by some strange twist of fate, Lianfeng's call ended up on Huang Ke's cell phone.
this means……
Rose rejected Lianfeng!
"rose……"
Morgana murmured Rose's name, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
She roughly guessed what Rose was thinking.
As a qualified and loyal soldier, and as an "Earthling," she could not choose to turn a blind eye to what Dukao had done in the past.
Perhaps she can rescue Dukao quietly.
Perhaps she can save Dukao's life.
But her conscience wouldn't allow it; she would feel that this was a betrayal of her faith!
Before Lianfeng made contact, Qiangwei deliberately deceived herself, believing that Dukao was not protected by her own favoritism and abuse of power, but was controlled by Morgana, which prevented Dukao from receiving the trial he deserved.
But after Lianfeng made the contact, reality no longer allowed Qiangwei to deceive herself like this.
Forcing Dukao to be protected based on the father-daughter relationship would make it impossible for Rose to face anyone in the North Star Aerospace Industry Group.
Everyone here dedicates everything to the Earth, to civilization, and to the nation.
Under the ardent and sincere gaze of this group of people, the rose would surely feel ashamed.
Therefore, Rose made a choice: she gave Lianfeng Huang Ke's number, but not to Lianfeng. The only way to save Dukao's life was to dial this number.
What happened after Dukao was rescued?
Rose cannot guarantee anything, nor does she dare to even think about it.
She knew that the ending probably wouldn't be good.
She might lose her father completely shortly after taking him back.
But the rose had no other choice...
Morgana's feelings were still somewhat complicated, and she even felt a little regretful. She hadn't paid attention to the specific situation inside Devil One, which had put Rose in a dilemma.
But just then, Rose knocked on Huang Ke's office door.
