readx;
Before noon, David returned to his ship. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Of course, the previous spaceship had been blown up, and Chiyo and the others on the spaceship boarded a liveboat, broke away from the hull before the explosion, and flew to the free navigation zone outside the orbit of Kinmen under the cover of the Hu Guards. Subsequently, the combat team that pursued the "little fugitive slave" Shen Han also withdrew here to join them. Because David had an order of "not allowed to enter the Golden Gate Star", Hu Weijun scrupulously obeyed the order, so naturally he could not take a step beyond the thunder pool, but it was impossible to leave the master and just leave, so he had to cruise outside the orbit of the Golden Gate Star and wait. After a day and a night of waiting, Chiyo's deputy chief attendant transferred David's ship.
As soon as the explosion happened, it was a foregone conclusion that David's whereabouts would be exposed, and it was obviously meaningless to cover it up, so Chiyo's deputy chief attendant was furious and simply transferred David's official ship. From a distance, Gu Hanhan saw a fiery red giant bird hovering in space, its wings spreading out in the darkness of the universe, half golden, half bright red, burning like a flame.
"What a handsome spaceship" Gu Hanhan was stunned, and grabbed David's hand excitedly through the mecha gloves, "Is it made according to fènghuáng, right?
"It's called Phoenix, and it was built on my sixteenth birthday, and Heber says it was designed in the shape of an immortal bird. David's voice came through the communication frequency, and then he asked, "Do you want it to be called fènghuáng?"
Gu Hanhan waved his hand fearlessly and said, "Don't fènghuáng and phoenix both mean the same thing, or do you call phoenix good and phoenix is commensurate with you, and the immortal bird is so good, much stronger than fènghuáng."
In the void near the majestic body of "Phoenix", there are many ships, warships and battle mechs cruising. Gu Hanhan originally thought that it was the Huwei Fleet transferred by the Deputy Chief of the Chamberlain of Chiyo, but after getting closer, he saw the signs on the spaceship and mecha clearly, and realized that those were originally the patrol fleet of the United Nations Peace Army. They are supposed to have received reports of a spacecraft exploding near the space jump point, so they rushed to deal with the accident and maintain spatial stability.
The space platform has been unfolded at the entrance of the "Phoenix" spacecraft, and the deputy chief of the Chiyo chamberlain has set up the honor guard as usual, leading a group of people to wait outside to greet them. But this time, Chiyo's deputy chief of staff suddenly stopped and stretched out his hand to a man in military uniform beside him.
"Why is it that even Admiral Fang is alarmed. He said, "It's too hard." ”
The man shook David's hand hard, and smiled very boldly: "Words are serious, words are serious, they are all for the people." ”
So, David introduced to Gu Hanhan: "This is Admiral Fang Chuyu, the commander-in-chief of the First Fleet of the United Nations. ”
Gu Hanhan was taken aback, and couldn't help but take a closer look, seeing that this Admiral Fang was in his early thirties, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, white skin and delicate body, and he really didn't look like a good person. Coupled with the uniform of the commander of the United Nations fleet on his body, the row of generals who can blind people on his shoulders, and the heroic laughter, that image is simply stunning
Gu Hanhan saw that although Admiral Fang did not look like a good person, but Admiral Fang, who had just made a lot of money, saw that Gu Hanhan was a beautiful and wealthy boy, and took the initiative to hold Gu Hanhan's hand and shook it again and again: "This is Miss Hanhan, I have heard of the big name for a long time, and I finally saw someone today." If there is anything in the future, even if you open your mouth, David knows, my old man loves to help his friends the most. ”
Gu Hanhan naturally couldn't have known that the Grand Admiral Fang was actually smiling at Qian, and was stunned by the excessive favor of this commander and the weird "old man". At the same time, I also wondered in my heart, isn't it just to deal with a traffic accident and maintain the stability of the space, why did even the commander of the First Fleet of the United Nations come here in person? If this was someone else, Gu Hanhan could still suspect that he had come to hug the thighs of the superpowered nobles, but only based on the attitude of this Admiral Fang and the fact that he called David "David" instead of "Your Excellency David" , I know that it is not possible to let alone the Righteous Division representing the United Nations, the commander-in-chief of the fleet with a million-strong army dominating the inland seas of the galaxy, at least in the Vault Dweller system, only others ask for him, and no one else asks for him. Such a person, even if he wants to hug the thighs of a superpowered nobleman, will not be unable to hug so obviously, this is a matter of principle related to the two worlds
This, Admiral Fang later took the initiative to explain. It turned out that as soon as the spaceship exploded, the United Nations First Fleet, which was responsible for the Vault Dweller's shipping lanes and the security of the galaxy, immediately learned about it. When I opened the logbook at the jump point, I found that the owner of the ship was David Duran. On the list of the United Nations Security Agency, "David Duran" is marked as an extremely dangerous element with the highest level of security risk, so it is immediately reported, layer by layer, and reported to Admiral Fang.
Admiral Fang didn't need to come in person, but it happened that Admiral Fang Da's campaign against illegal smuggling was completed, and he withdrew from the front line with the fleet to rest, just near Kinmen Star. So just now, Admiral Fang, who had just made a lot of money by intercepting and detaining the vassals of the Haihai family and selling them to careerists in the whole universe, found out that he was idle anyway, so he planned to come and see it in person.
As a result, the 2,000 fleet roared in, and the vanguard came in a semi-encirclement posture, directly taking over all police defenses near the Golden Gate Star. It was only unfortunate that Chiyo was the deputy chief of the chamberlain, and on the one hand, he had to contact the lighthouse star to deal with various aftermath matters, and on the other hand, he had to deal with the murderous Admiral Fang Da who rushed to the rescue, which was really miserable.
Chiyo's deputy chief attendant did not wait to see Admiral Chu, but Chu Dati was unconscious, and simply explained the reason, and offered to escort David back to the lighthouse star. According to his words, "It's all here, let's go together, I'm going back to the Beacon Star anyway." David didn't shirk and readily agreed. The two chatted and boarded the ship together. As for saying that Fang Chuyu is a fleet commander who does not sit on his flagship, but runs to the people's civilian spaceship to stay in this kind of violation, naturally no one will not blame Admiral Fang without opening his eyes.
Admiral Fang Chuyu was a fishing fan, and after getting on the boat, he pulled David to catch big fish. Gu Hanhan, as a young and lively beautiful girl, had no interest in such entertainment activities that were like sitting still, and after staying for less than five minutes, she declared defeat and went back to wash and sleep.
Kinmen Star is less than forty astronomical units away from the Lighthouse Star, and the spaceship can be said to be breathing, Gu Hanhan fell asleep, and the spacecraft was already about to dock. In the spaceport of the Lighthouse Star, Gu Hanhan finally experienced the treatment she had dreamed of. The moment Phoenix descended, the vast spaceport was silent, and all the passages in and out of the port were empty. Underneath the ship, the light was like a star, the light emitted by the vassal airship that had arrived to greet it. Countless starlights converged into a stream, and at this moment, it seemed to trample the sea of stars under your feet.
Hebrew himself came to greet him, along with Gar, and Chiyo's deputy chief acolyte was finally able to escape the misfortune brought by the "Mistress of the Acropolis" and the "Mistress of the Acropolis", and became himself with ease.
David did not accept any salute from his vassals and returned directly to the Acropolis. When the airship landed in the mansion, Gu Hanhan saw that behind the main mansion, there were some naked and kneeling people on the stone road leading to the main hall of the memorial hall. They knelt for an unknown amount of time, but some of them could no longer support themselves, lying on the ground and dying, and some of them even passed out. That situation seems really miserable. However, David didn't look at them and went straight into the main house.
Gu Hanhan couldn't help but ask Gal beside him: "What's the matter?"
"Those people are the patriarchs of those families who tried to hurt you, Miss, a few days ago, and it has been ascertained. Gal told Gu Hanhan, "Now they are repenting for their crimes." ”
"Repentance?" Gu Hanhan frowned, instinctively feeling very familiar, it seemed to be a word that often appeared in the Holy Code, Gal had mentioned it before, and even the old monster Elder Bruch seemed to have mentioned it.
"Yes," explained Garr, "if a vassal of the family has angered his master and committed an unforgivable crime, kneeling in front of the main hall of the family memorial and confessing is the only way to redeem his master's heart, and if their repentance is enough to impress the god of the universe, they may be pardoned by their master." ”
"So they're on their knees all these days?"
"Yes, since you have confessed your guilt and want to ask for the master's extraordinary kindness, of course, you must repent until the master makes a verdict," said Garliso, of course, "the master has been with you these days, and he has just returned home, and he has not yet made a decision." ”
It's been more than ten days since the New Year, right?
Gu Hanhan couldn't help but turn his head and glanced at the confessors who were kneeling on the ground naked, because he knew in advance that David was ready to pardon them, and Gu Hanhan didn't feel how miserable and unfortunate they were. Compared to the cruel expulsion, what is this confession, is it as merciful as a bodhisattva?
The crime that can be expelled can be waived by just punishing and kneeling, which is too cost-effective. Of course, David walked for more than ten or twenty days, resulting in a long kneeling time, which is indeed very inhumane, but these people are not ordinary people. These patriarchs and gentlemen of the Acropolis are the worst, and there are also mid-level superpowers, hungry and kneeling on the nail board, and being tortured a little bit that ordinary people can't stand is the same as playing. Don't look at them now that they are dying, it seems that they have been abused, in fact, when they go back, they can eat and drink and sleep in the sleeping box, they are alive and well, and they can come out to harm people again. Of course, it is indeed a shame to take off the strip of repentance, and it makes people have nothing to say. Therefore, Gu Hanhan didn't think about it, and turned around with an "oh".
Gal went on to explain: "This is a privilege that only the nobility can have, because confession is done in the name of the family. At the time of repentance, the family is to continue to offer sacrifices until the gods of the universe are touched. “
Gu Hanhan was taken aback: "Dedication, what dedication, what are they going to do as a sacrifice?"
"Everything they thought was precious enough to be offered to the gods of the universe could certainly be sacrificed. Gal smiled and said: "Superpower slaves, planet manors, power stones, all kinds of treasures of the universe, including themselves, the superpower family can give nothing more than these things to the sect master." “
Gu Hanhan was dumbfounded, and was completely shocked, is this a god of wealth or an exoneration coupon in the new era?
Gu Hanhan couldn't imagine what kind of huge contributions he had gained from the confessions of these families in the ten or twenty days and nights that David had been absent from the Acropolis. But since it is "an offering that can impress the gods of the universe", then it must be able to impress the master, so what crime in the world cannot be forgiven under this kind of impress?
Even with the simple values of an earth girl, Gu Hanhan can easily understand the ultimate meaning of this Acropolis-style "confession", and she believes that when these old gentlemen of the Acropolis nobles stripped off their gorgeous clothes and knelt on the cold stone with nothing, they are indeed repenting with their lives. Every minute and every second they kneel here, their hearts bleed, and pain and remorse whipped into their souls. This, she thought, was just too inhumane.
