Chapter 293 Those who drown in water are often those who can swim!

"Give me a sigh!"

Our Lady Helen stared into Rita's eyes, whispering and repeating these words over and over again, but surprisingly, Rita remained indifferent the entire time.

Her indifferent expression was as if she was watching a mysterious witch casting a funny spell.

It turned out that just now, Rita had secretly activated the micro Geller Field Generator in the power armor, forming a shielding field for herself, which could make her immune to the opponent's mental control.

Seeing that her control didn't work, Saint Helen fell into self-doubt.

She is the best master of sound control in the entire Galactic Empire. Even if she is not necessarily the strongest one, she is at least a master-level character.

But facing the "defenseless" Rita, he was unable to give orders to her!

Then Helen tried again, but the result was the same. Her voice control had no effect on Rita.

At this moment, the atmosphere became a little awkward, and even Jessica and other sorority members present showed confused expressions.

This is impossible... Who in the empire can ignore the Virgin Mary's sound control power and remain so calm?

"Who are you and why can you block the sound control power?!"

Helen was a little panicked. No matter how good her sound control ability was, it was still at the top level of the sisterhood. Some masters of psychic power could even be forcibly controlled and brainwashed by her.

But Rita on the opposite side could actually ignore it completely, which is incredible. Could it be that the organization of Universal Corporation really came from other universes?

Virgin Helen shook her head. She would never believe such nonsense. If this were true, then the savior of the Galactic Empire would be the Universal Corporation!
At this time, seeing Helen's confused state, Rita took advantage of the situation and continued to extend an olive branch to her, saying:
"Holy Mother, on behalf of the Universal Corporation, I once again sincerely invite you to join our Universal Corporation. It would be best if you choose to cooperate with us."

"Otherwise, any force that is regarded as an enemy by a giant enterprise will not have a good ending."

Rita, who was always outspoken, did not try to be tactful at all. Her offensive and angry words made Helen and the sorority members feel very unhappy.

Where did this fake organization come from, and how dare they threaten them with such nonsense? Do they really think that the Sisterhood has been in the Galactic Empire for thousands of years for nothing?
"Hehe, it's still unclear who will win or lose. With Duke Leto's wealth, he can't be a match for the royal family. Let's wait and see!"

Of course Helen ignored Rita's recruitment. The ultimate plan of their sisterhood was to control the Galactic Empire, manipulate their own "savior", and hold the power of the empire forever.

Why should I join a crappy global giant and become a spice researcher, studying sound control for others?

This is absolutely impossible!
Seeing that Helen firmly rejected Rita, the sergeant on the side secretly asked his boss Leon's opinion through the communication device of the tactical helmet.

"Boss, do you want to forcibly take these people back to the base?" asked the sergeant.

[No, since they want to play, just play with them. ]

Li Ang refused.

He asked Rita to meet the Virgin Helen, mainly to test the effect of his own Geller stance generator.

As for recruiting Helen, it was just a matter of convenience. Whether Helen joined the Universal Corporation or not, it didn't really matter. She was not important.

"Unfortunately, you missed the opportunity to become the head of a department of a giant company. After tonight, you will be the target of the giant company's attack."

Rita's eyes suddenly became gloomy, and she looked at the sisterhood members as if she was looking at a group of dying people, which made everyone in the sisterhood feel creepy.

They have dealt with all kinds of people, and from Rita's expression, they can tell that Rita must have killed many people!
"Okay, let's give it a try."

Helen had seen all kinds of big scenes, and this kind of trick could not fool her. Just like Rita's mood at the moment, Helen also had a deep murderous intention towards Rita!
No matter what kind of power the Universal Corporation is, and no matter who Rita is, anyone who has the ability to block or interfere with the effects of sound control must be killed.

Otherwise, the sisterhood would be controlled by others, and without a source of income, their status would inevitably plummet.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you in Arrakis, and I'll let you go tonight." Rita nodded and calmly said harsh words to the other party.

She knew that the purpose of Leon sending her here was not to recruit the other party sincerely, but to provoke and intimidate Helen.

If you can really intimidate the other party and make them join your camp, that would be much easier.

If not, it doesn't matter.

The Sisterhood is a little different from other forces. They have many members and they are scattered throughout the Galactic Empire.

A simple decapitation operation would not work for them, after all, their Madonna could be nominated from the organization at any time.

Just like growing leeks, after you grow one crop, another crop will grow.

After all, the position of the Virgin Mary, to put it bluntly, requires the technical skills of being a brothel owner. Who doesn't know how to be one?

Therefore, whether killing or kidnapping Helen, it would not be very effective. It would be better to let Helen go back and wait for her to mobilize the core members of the sorority before catching them all in one fell swoop.

At that time, those who are willing to surrender will be recruited for their own use, and those who are unwilling to surrender will be charged with the crimes of being a cult member or a gold digger.

In addition, doing so would also completely sever Jessica's ties with the sorority, preventing her from playing back-and-forth games.

Here, Helen felt very uncomfortable after learning that Rita had a device that could block the sisterhood's unique sound control ability.

For the development of the sisterhood, she must arrange people to kill Rita as soon as possible, destroy the Atreides family, take Paul away, and destroy the giant Universal Corporation together!

What Helen has to do next is to assist the Colino royal family in destroying Atreides and his behind-the-scenes accomplice, the Global Corporation.

Soon, Virgin Helen took the members of the sisterhood on a spaceship and left Caladan angrily.

And from this contact, Li Ang also got to know the details of the sisterhood and knew the approximate level of their sound control ability.

As long as the sisterhood's sound control ability cannot affect the warriors equipped with the Geller Field Generator, there is no need to worry too much.

……

Three days later, Arakken Palace!
The crisp and piercing sound of vases exploding, mixed with angry roars, continued to echo from the depths of the palace.

The crackling ceramic vase turned into sharp fragments all over the ground. The royal treasure worth tens of millions of solaris was smashed to pieces by the furious Emperor Saddam.

"Damn Leto, damn the Atreides!"

The messenger crawling on the ground listened tremblingly to the roar of Emperor Saddam behind the curtain. At this moment, the emperor was like an enraged lion, ready to devour any living creature around him at any time.

If there had not been a curtain blocking the way, the messenger would never have dared to report the bad news to Emperor Saddam in person.

"I...I will destroy Atreides and kill every member of Atreides family!!"

The messenger hiding behind the curtain was fine, but the maids who always stayed by Emperor Saddam's side became the targets of his unwarranted anger.

The broken ceramic fragments cut the skin of many maids, but even so, they still resisted the fear and stood in front of the curtain to serve the emperor. Bang! !

Another golden object flew out and hit a maid on the head. The maid was bleeding and fainted immediately, but no one dared to step forward to rescue her without the emperor's order.

Seeing this scene, the maids below became even more frightened.

They had never seen Emperor Saddam so angry. According to past practice, when the emperor was furious, the death or injury of a few maids was of no concern.

But looking at the other party's posture, I'm afraid that all the people serving him around here will be executed!

Just when the maids and the messengers outside the curtain were about to despair, Virgin Helen suddenly walked into the room.

"Emperor, you don't need to be angry about these traitors. They are just insignificant little characters."

Helen lifted the curtain and saw the maid kneeling on the ground. She made a gesture, indicating that the other party should quickly carry the dead and injured maids out and clean up the scene.

The maids felt relieved and started to act swiftly. Emperor Saddam, who was furious, finally calmed down when he saw that it was the Virgin Mary who came.

"Holy Mother, you came just in time!"

Emperor Saddam put down the gold in his hand at any time and complained to Helen angrily: "That damn old thing Leto actually dared to go against me."

"Not only did he talk about usurping the throne, he also challenged my Corino royal family to a battle in Arrakis. This old beast is really tired of living!"

After saying this, Shaddam glared at Mother Helen and said, "I order you to immediately gather all the elite members of the sisterhood to cooperate with my royal forces to destroy the entire Atreides family."

"Whether it's poisoning, assassination, or some other method, I want everyone in Atreides to disappear!"

Emperor Saddam knew that the Sisterhood under the control of Saint Helen was a force that could not be ignored, so he kept this woman as his mantra master.

Although these women in the sisterhood are not very good at fighting, they are still very reliable in obtaining intelligence and collecting evidence. The Empire's reign of terror is also inseparable from the efforts of the sisterhood.

Seeing this, Virgin Helen smiled, swayed her waist, sat next to Shadam, and said in a charming tone:

"My Emperor, that is why I have come."

Ever since the failure to communicate with Jessica, Helen realized that this pawn planted in the Atreides Family has completely gone out of control.

The loss of Jessica and Paul overnight brought the sisterhood's decades-long breeding program to an end.

You know, a breeding program may require two or three generations of preparation. The probability of producing a high-quality seed is extremely low, and it is quite difficult to produce one in a hundred years!

Now they finally see a glimmer of hope in Paul. If they give up, they will have to wait another 20 years to start the next round of breeding.

Helen would never allow this to happen, so she had to cooperate with the royal troops in Arrakis to completely destroy the Atreides family and Jessica's wishful thinking!

Just as Helen and Emperor Saddam were plotting their next move, Paul, far away in Caladan, was having a conversation with his father Leto.

……

Caladan, Atreides Manor!
In the family meeting room, Paul, who had just finished sword training, came to Duke Leto with great interest and said:

"Father, I request to go to Arrakis with Duncan to perform a reconnaissance mission. I have learned the Fremen language and can communicate with the local residents."

The Duncan that Paul mentioned is Duncan Idaho, who is the sword master of the Atreides family and also the teacher who is responsible for training Paul in swordsmanship.

This time the whole family rebelled against the emperor, which made Paul very motivated.

But Leto rejected Paul's request without even a second thought, saying it was absolutely impossible.

"We'll go to Arrakis later. You can come with us then, and we'll let the people below take care of the rest."

Leto had just declared war on Emperor Saddam, and Arrakis was now a dangerous place where a fierce war could break out at any time.

To stuff Paul into the reconnaissance team and send them over at this time would be to simply send their own child to his death.

Faced with his father's stern rejection, Paul rebelled and said incomprehensibly: "I have received all kinds of harsh training since I was a child, including kendo, fighting, and guns."

"If I am not allowed to test my skills on a real battlefield, then what is the point of all this training!"

Seeing the boy's stubbornness, Duke Leto simply patted him on the shoulder and patiently explained, "Paul, you are the future of House Atreides."

"So you have to stay by my side."

However, Paul was unconvinced and retorted: "I am not a fragile nobleman who is afraid of death. My grandfather used to treat bullfighting as a pastime!"

"Yes, you are right."

Lord Leto remained patient. "But you know what happened to him."

Leto said no more.

Because all members of the Atreides family knew that the old duke died because he was gored in the stomach by a bull during a bullfight, ending up with a ridiculous stomach rupture and intestines piercing his body.

"Those who drown in the water are often those who can swim, and those who are eager to fight are often beheaded by others."

Leto's teachings left Paul silent, and he had to admit that what his father said made sense.

"When we arrive in Arrakis, the danger we face will be a hundred times more dangerous than before. Therefore, as the leaders of the family, we must first ensure our own safety before we can control the overall situation."

The reason why Leto made Paul receive rigorous training since childhood was because he had extraordinary abilities to protect himself, rather than following his subordinates into battle.

As a leader, what really demonstrates his ability is not whether he can kill as many enemies as his soldiers, but whether he can use his brain to achieve his goal with fewer casualties.

This time, Arrakis will become the site of a clash between the armies of the Atreides, the Corino Royal Family, and the Harkonnen Family. A major war is inevitable.

At this critical juncture, if the leader in the rear is killed, the morale impact on the soldiers on the front line will be a devastating blow!

"However, this time we have the support of the fleet of the Universal Corporation. We don't have to worry about the development of the war situation. The only thing we have to do is to ensure our own safety."

Now that the topic has been brought up, Leto might as well reveal all the cards of this war to Paul.

Otherwise this silly boy would think too much and do something weird, which would only make things worse.

After all, there are always some clichéd plots, where either the father betrays the son or the son betrays the father. A great start leads to a disastrous ending due to communication problems.

Duke Leto would naturally not allow such a thing to happen to him.
