July 2096

Since the failure of the operation against the Free State by both sides of the South Romania, neither of them has made any greater moves, and the blockade line that has become a virtual blockade is quickly half lifted.

The situation has eased, and countries have been given breathing space to adjust. The Free Nation was no exception, and the intelligence services began to gather information about the ruins in full swing.

After resting peacefully for almost three months and ushering in the hot summer, Patrick did feel relaxed. He likes the warm feeling of the sun on his body, and he used to enjoy sunbathing with G41 with nothing to do, but from now on, the sun will only get hotter and hotter, so it's better to hide in the shade.

"Pa~Te~Ri~Ke~"

His hair stood on end, and he was sure that the cold air on his body had dissipated, because he heard a strange cry.

"Don't call my name in this misleading tone. Patrick said coldly.

"Because~ I can't help but want to tease when I see you preoccupied~"

Patrick was silent, and was provoked by the adjudicator.

"That's why you're annoying......"

But there are still people who are in the right hands, to be precise, in human form. And Junoan, who was standing upright, sneered quietly.

"So, what are you worried about?" the adjudicator smiled, but it was much more serious than before.

"Jefuti. Patrick said.

"Ahh

"After all, that position is equivalent to me pushing her up, and I will be a little uncomfortable. ”

"She has to be busy with the work of the queen again, and she has to cooperate with the research of the ruins as a subject, which must be very hard. Junoan added, intentionally or unintentionally.

"That's right~ But, Jeffetti doesn't take on this alone, and there are many reliable people around her, isn't it?" the adjudicator laughed, "she can hold on." ”

“...... I hope so. Patrick narrowed his eyes and stared at the triangular badge for a moment.

Here he is again. Not long ago, he was talking to Jeffrey here, but he was not good at words, and perhaps the meaning was not clear, and Jeffrey still couldn't trust him.

The adjudicator pushed open the wooden door of the sacred symbol, and the maiden who was the queen stood opposite the door, behind a round table with gold rimmes. To her left and right is a man and a projection, dressed in a serious formal attire.

"Looking for us?" asked Patrick.

"Nonsense. Kira sneered, not serious at all.

"It's so big that all three members of the Trilateral Council have arrived, and the commander of the army has come," said Patrick, "so what do you want, Your Majesty?"

"Listen, second lieutenant," said Fran the artificial intelligence, in an almost commanding tone, "Her Majesty has proposed to establish diplomatic relations with other countries, and you have been summoned here after discussion at our trilateral meeting, as has Lieutenant Colonel Junoan Howard. ”

"Yes......" Patrick sighed, "and what is the outcome of the discussion?"

"We agreed that it is feasible to establish friendly relations with other countries at this point in time, and that there is no harm in accumulating strength before the next possible war, although it may not be necessary in the end. So, we approved Her Majesty's proposal and decided on the most suitable country to have diplomatic relations with, and we needed your assistance for diplomatic work, which is why you are here. ”

"It's okay to ask me for help," Patrick said, "at least tell me where I'm going." I don't think the country we have diplomatic relations with will be either Luo Union or Southern Union, right?"

"Definitely, please don't be impatient. ”

After Fran finished speaking, a three-dimensional projection was released in the center of the round table, and a beige flag fluttered in the wind, and in the center of it was a large circle made of a blue crescent moon and a red sun, surrounded by eight stars, surrounding the sun and moon in the center.

"The Servitan Polynationalist Republic, you know?" Kira explained, stepping forward and clasping her arms around her chest, "The socialist country in the desert region of the Kalahadi Basin in Africa is one of the few non-Roxatist countries other than Antarctica. Like Luo Lian, the small country that has only developed in the last three decades has been in a state of great chaos at home. At present, both Servitan and Nam Luo maintain neutral relations. ”

"So you're planning to co-opt and form a third-party force?"

"Exactly. The adjudicator said, "Well~ Anyway, Luo Lian and Nanlian won't take a look." ”

"What about my mission?" Patrick said lightly.

"Given Her Majesty's request to send an envoy in person, and the ability of Her Highness and the Guardians alone to ensure Her Majesty's safety," Fran continued, "has had little effect in bringing about the establishment of diplomatic relations." Given the number of diplomatic variables this time, we believe it is necessary to prepare 'special' means, and the special means to deal with the changing situation are the best for your squad. ”

Patrick understood Fran's subtle words, he had multiple tasks and had to ensure the success of the mission in his own way, no matter what the means......

"I understand, I agree to go with you. ”

"Rear support will be handled by Lieutenant Colonel Junoan, and as for the domestic side, the day-to-day affairs of Her Majesty's mission will be handled by the Trilateral Council, so please rest assured. ”

"I'm sorry for the trouble. Jeffetti placed her hands in front of her and her knees slightly bent.

"It's okay, it won't be a problem. ”

"Thank you. Jeffetti said with a smile.

After the meeting was dismissed, Patrick stayed where he was, checking the information provided by Fran.

Desert...... Patrick thought that at that time, the base camp of the Survivor Alliance was also in the desert. To be honest, he still misses the old days a little. The war in the dark is indeed not worth looking back on, but he still has cherished people to remember, although he can no longer see each other.

"Looks so happy, master. ”

Patrick turned his head when he heard this, it was G41.

Ah, what did his eyes say, let her perceive it.

"It's a little bit, after all, Jeffrey has taken positive action, she's improving. "And she's no longer hostile to me." ”

"Is Jeffetti willing to trust us?"

"No," Patrick shook his head, "just not hostile." ”

"That's it, what else is the master ...... for? A little happier?"

Why? Patrick himself knew it, but he couldn't say it. In the past, he was blind, unable to see the target, blindly fighting, fighting, blindly looking for answers. Now he has goals that he has never had in the past—whether it's a dream, a hope, or that's the kind of thing that makes a little progress can make him happy.

His expression didn't show it, but he had to admit how he felt.

"Desert, want to see it. ”

"Yes!" G41 smiled, "I'm looking forward to traveling with my master!"
