Bel I heard Belzon issue the order to flatten the northern corner of the palace and initially thought he had misheard... 0
 
He couldn't help but remind Belzon: "The northern corner of the palace is the Royal Palace Prison, where your brother King Bel Ao and many ministers are held..." 0
 
Belzon replied calmly, "Since the palace has been blown to pieces, there's no point in keeping other buildings. Blow them up too; everything will be rebuilt. There's nothing worth missing." 0
 
Bel I understood Belzon's meaning and fell silent. 0

Belzon and Bel I watched as the entire palace was turned upside down, creating quite a scene. 0
 
After a while, the soldiers from the Capricorn Battleship who had landed to rescue Belche were completely surrounded and annihilated by the Martians. 0
 
At that moment, a Command Ship suddenly took off from a part of the palace, surrounded by numerous Martian Mecha. 0
 
Bel I recognized it immediately: "That's Belche's Command Ship. He wants to escape. Should we shoot it down?" 0
 
Belzon calmly replied, "If it rains, it rains; if a mother wants to marry, we can't interfere. If he has the ability to escape, let him go. After all, he is one of our kin." 0
 
Bel I couldn't understand what Belzon was thinking. He wondered: [Why is Belzon being so ruthless towards his own brother, who is powerless and stuck in prison? Yet he seems willing to let Belche go and even talks about kinship?...] 0
 
Instinctively, Bel I felt the terror of Belzon. He stole a glance at this inscrutable superior beside him, who still wore a benevolent smile like a kind old man. Only Bel I knew that beneath this facade lay the embodiment of a devil. After some contemplation, he finally realized: [This old man is far more formidable than Belche. He brought Kairuot to Capricorn Planet to use the power of the Martians to oust Belche, allowing him to become the rightful king of Capricorn Planet. He could shift the blame for killing the former king and ministers onto the Martians, and of course, that blame could also fall on me... Belzon, truly terrifying.] 0
 
Thinking this, Bel I felt he could no longer stay in this place. He wanted to find an excuse to escape because he knew too much; Belzun the Elder would not allow him to live. 0
 
He intended to tell Belzon that he was feeling unwell and needed to rest in his room. Before he could even open his mouth, he felt excruciating pain in his abdomen, followed by spasms in his limbs, foam forming at his mouth. In no time at all, he was dead. 0
 
Belzon quietly watched as Bel I died, standing up only when the body had completely stiffened. He took out a vial of liquid from his pocket and sprinkled it over Bel I, saying, "I'm sorry, Bel I, but you know too much. Death is your best destination. Don't worry; I will place your soul in a very safe place." 0
 
 
The potion was sprinkled on Bel I, and the body gradually dissolved, leaving only the military uniform that Bel I had been wearing on the ground. 0
 
Belzon sat cross-legged in front of Bel I's military uniform, using his Soul Absorption Technique to draw in the wandering soul of Bel I into his body. 0
 
Next, Belzun the Elder manipulated the Controller in his hand to summon a Clone of Bel I, making it stand there. 0
 
Belzon injected Bel I's soul into the Clone's body, then implanted a control program into the Clone's brain, erasing all inappropriate memories from Bel I's soul and replacing them with a new obedient version of Bel I—this way, every move of Bel I would be under his control. 0
 
With everything arranged, Belzun the Elder went inside to rest. After all, he was getting old and hadn't slept for several days; he was quite tired. 0

The blown-up royal palace was now a wasteland, yet Martian Soldiers were still diligently searching for hidden escape routes used by Capricornian soldiers. After some time searching, they finally discovered a secret passage. 0
 
Kairuot led his soldiers into the passage. Although the Capricorn Mother Ship's Command Ship had already fled and Belche might be on the Command Ship, the Martians remained undeterred; they would not withdraw their troops easily until they saw Belche's corpse. 0
 
Inside the passage, Capricorn Soldiers prepared to mount a desperate resistance against the Martian Soldiers. They had snipers positioned at every corner, ready to shoot at any Martian Soldier entering the passage. Moreover, due to water soaking through, the passage was exceptionally damp, with puddles in low-lying areas that made crunching sounds when stepped on. Thus, they believed they had an advantage in this battleground. 0
 
However, what the Capricorn Soldiers did not expect was that since they were all from the Bel Tribe and not robots, their body heat could easily be detected by infrared sensors. Their hidden sentries were essentially useless. Kairuot dealt with these sentries using missiles or heavy weapons, causing chaos among the Capricorn Soldiers. Additionally, since the Capricorn Soldiers were equipped with light weapons in this situation, they could only suffer blows without having time to retaliate before falling one by one. Under Kairuot's command, to minimize casualties, all Martian Soldiers also used flamethrowers and laser missiles for strikes instead of engaging in close combat with Capricornians. If they encountered a room where infrared sensors were triggered, it would face destruction. 0
 
Soon, there wasn't a single intact room left in the underground facilities of Capricorn Planet; all instruments and equipment were destroyed. The underground project that Capricornians had painstakingly developed over thousands of years was obliterated by the Martians during this battle. Victory in the war quickly tilted in favor of the Martians. 0

Kairuot did not linger in the fighting within the passage; finding Belche was his goal. Knowing the route to Capricorn Planet's Command Center, he led a group of Special Forces Members directly toward it. 0
 
Upon reaching the entrance of the Command Center, Kairuot's infrared sensor showed six red dots indicating that six people were hiding inside. One of his soldiers suggested throwing a Nuclear Bomb at the main door to blow it open, but Kairuot stopped him with a gesture. 0
 
Kairuot signaled for his team members to quickly take cover. He kicked at the Command Center door; it did not budge and instead drew a fierce counterattack from laser guns, riddling the door with dozens of holes. 0
 
 
Kairuot hid to one side of the door and shouted inside, " Belche, you are surrounded. Surrender quickly, and maybe the military court will spare your life." 0
 
However, there was silence in the Command Center, and no one responded. 0
 
Kairuot continued to shout, "Your entire Capricorn Planet has been captured by us. You only have six people left; you can't hold out much longer. Surrender is your only way out!" 0
 
Still, no one answered from inside. 0
 
Xiaoli lacked such patience. She kicked the door, trying to force it open, but was met with a barrage from a Laser Gun. If it weren't for Kairuot's quick reaction pulling her back, she would have been shot. 0
 
At this point, Fair Connie also lost her patience. She wanted to personally kill Belche to avenge her father! So, she leaped forward and smashed the door open. Although there was a counterattack of Laser Guns from inside, the Martians' Special Forces Members had already thrown several Missiles inside, instantly filling the Command Center with smoke. Everyone rushed in. Out of six soldiers, five were killed in the explosion, leaving only one—Belche, who had been injured in his left shoulder and right leg and was struggling to get up. 0
 
Looking at a group of Martians pointing their guns at him from all sides, Belche laughed maniacally, "What kind of heroes are you? Winning through schemes and tricks? If you have the guts, let’s fight openly; I guarantee I’ll make you regret it!" 0
 
Kairuot said, "Belche, at this point, you're still trying to talk big? This is called tit for tat! Scheming is your specialty; now you're pretending to be a gentleman here?" 0
 
Fair Connie glared at Belche angrily. "You killed my father; I want your life!" Saying this, she struck towards Belche. He reacted quickly and dodged the attack but immediately countered with a punch towards Fei Er Connie. She did not evade and directly met his punch with her palm. When their fists collided, Belche couldn't withstand it. Although he was also trained in martial arts, he had never encountered such a technique before; his right arm was instantly incapacitated. 0
 
He now realized how formidable Fair Connie was and looked at her in extreme fear. "What... what kind of technique is that? So..." 0
 
Before he could finish speaking, he was struck in the chest by a heavy palm from Fei Er Connie, killing him on the spot. 0
