Castle peak.

Green.

The high vegetation coverage makes the air on this planet extremely fresh, and even in the city, there is a lot of verdant greenery as far as the eye can see.

The aircraft was parked outside the atmosphere, and as soon as Qin Yan and his party walked out, there was a team of uniformed soldiers waiting there early.

In a short time, the crowd reached the sky above a city.

Nearly 400 people were led by this group of soldiers to a complex in the central area of the city, with the words 'Imperial Expeditionary Force Military Headquarters' written on it. Then I entered through the gate without any further inspection, and it was clear that the group of soldiers was working.

Finally, everyone was ushered into a large lounge, and the officer at the head immediately said, "You have worked hard, my men will arrange for you to rest." Captain Qin Yan, as well as Hou Qing and Nina, come with me—Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief wants to meet you alone. ”

The commander-in-chief in his mouth was obviously referring to the commander of the entire expeditionary force of the Lyra Empire.

It's just that......

Qin Yan was a little confused.

He had heard the name of the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, and in the seventh-class civilization where the message was sent, as a high-ranking officer of the expeditionary force, he naturally knew something about the bigwigs of various military departments.

But!

This news was passed on to the imperial capital by Salon, the commander of the second base of the expeditionary force, and the person he contacted shouldn't be the commander-in-chief, right?

Even if the Commander-in-Chief was his immediate superior, the secret was so great that even the Commander-in-Chief had no reason to know about it first, let alone be approached by the Commander-in-Chief.

Although they had many doubts in their hearts, they did not say anything, and the group of three followed the officer all the way to the top floor of the building.

It wasn't until he reached the door of a room on the top floor that the officer's footsteps stopped: "Report to the general, the three of them have been brought here." ”

"Stand down."

The gate opened abruptly, and a majestic voice came from inside: "Captain Qin Yan, you can come in." ”

The officer gave a military salute and turned to leave, Qin Yan and Hou Qing glanced at each other, and the three of them walked in, but when they looked around, they found that there were three people standing in the huge room.

In addition to the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force that I have seen on the military information network, there is also an old man and a middle-aged man.

The old man was dressed in a modest military uniform, sitting in a chair some distance from his desk, although he looked to be in his sixties, he did not have the slightest old age, he was not angry and arrogant, giving people a feeling as majestic as a mountain - from the seven-star epaulettes on his shoulders, you can imagine the supreme power he possessed.

The ranks of the Lyra Empire are divided into three classes and 21 ranks, the three ranks are soldiers, officers, and generals, and each rank is divided into seven ranks.

Among them, the seven ranks of generals are partial generals, brigadier generals, major generals, lieutenant generals, generals, marshals, and commanders-in-chief, such as Salon, the commander of the second base of the expeditionary force, in fact, only has the rank of major general, and the senior leaders above the captain of the second base fleet are all partial generals and brigadier generals.

According to the different epaulettes of the different ranks, they are divided into one star, and the level is increased by one level, and there is a star on the epaulettes.

Seven-star commander-in-chief!

This is the highest military rank in the military, and in such a huge Lyra Empire, there are only a few people with this rank, and they are all existences standing at the top of the pyramid of power!

As for the other middle-aged man, it seems that he should be the old man's entourage: because while the old man sits, he stands behind the old man.

The middle-aged man did not wear a military uniform, but a regular uniform that was not flashy at all. If it weren't for the fact that he was standing next to the seven-star marshal and placed on the street, no one would have been able to see that he would be the retinue of the seven-star marshal - he was like a passer-by, ordinary and ordinary.

"I have seen the commander-in-chief and the commander." Qin Yan, together with Houqing and Nina, performed a standard military salute.

"Commander-in-chief, they are here, and they will be ...... Went down? "Even as the commander-in-chief of the entire expeditionary force, there is a big gap in status compared to this old man, because he is only in command of the expeditionary force, but this old man is one of the highest ranks in the entire imperial military department.

"Hmm."

The old man nodded faintly, and the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force glanced at Qin Yan and the others, quickly left the office, and quietly closed the door.

When there were only five people left in the office, the old man suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were as sharp as a blade at Qin Yan, and he shouted coldly: "Qin Yan, are you guilty?" ”

It's another dismount, isn't it interesting?

Qin Yan secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, and said in his heart that these so-called superiors came and went with just a few tricks, but they responded: "I am humble and stupid, and I don't know what crime I have committed." ”

"Nina." The old man shouted.

"Humble duty." Nina's figure was straight and straight, looking ahead.

"Nina 61 Wilton!" The old man repeated again.

"Yes!"

"Tell Captain Qin Yan, who are you and who am I!"

"Nina 61 Wilton is from the Wilton family of the Lyra clan of the Lyra Empire, and the chief is Commander Rakel 61 Wilton, who is my uncle and grandfather."

Well, Qin Yan was a little surprised by this result.

Although he had never seen this old man, the other party, as the commander-in-chief of the Seven Stars, and the soldiers of the entire Tianqin Empire, had seen his introduction and photos on the military department's Internet. Therefore, from the moment he first entered this room, he had already recognized the other party and knew that the old man was the grandfather of the commander of the second base, Saron 61 Wilton.

But!

He could never have imagined that Nina was from the Wilton family and was the niece and granddaughter of this powerful old man!

"Now do you know what sin you have committed?" The old man shouted coldly.

"I don't know." Qin Yan held his head high and looked ahead.

"Presumptuous!" The old man was furious.

"In the laws of the Lyra Empire, and even in all the laws of higher civilizations, there is no provision that no one can be with whom, and there are also no relevant provisions in the laws of the country and military law."

Of course, Qin Yan knew what the old man wanted to say: before escorting Gray Jing off this time, he asked Saron for two hours off, so Salonon knew that Nina was taken care of by him, and since Salonn knew about it, of course Ryker, the seven-star commander who was his grandfather, would know.

"If you are as wise as you, do you really think ignorantly that what is not bound by the law must be something that can be done?"

"I don't understand what the commander-in-chief means."

"How can you covet the woman of my Wilton family?!" The old man scolded.

"There is no coveting of lowly office."

"Dare to quibble!"

"The lowly office has never been about coveting Nina, but about liking her, loving her, and intending to make her my wife."

"You ......"

"It has nothing to do with her background."

Qin Yan still looked ahead, and said word by word: "The commander-in-chief has the ideas of the commander-in-chief, but those ideas don't agree with him, and he won't care. The lowly love life is not under the control of the law, and the lowly wants to be with Nina, and this matter only needs the consent of one person - this person is Nina herself. ”

This is a very untactful statement, which is equivalent to telling Rakel: You care about the door is your business, I don't agree with it, but there is no way to stop it, but if you want to use these things to restrain me, it is absolutely impossible, as long as Nina is willing to be with me.

"You...... Do you know what the consequences of talking to me like that are? The old man's face darkened.

"If the commander-in-chief has to stop the lowly and Nina from being together, of course there is no way to resist with the ability of the lowly position......"

This sentence finally made the old man's anger decrease slightly, but Qin Yan's next sentence almost made him crazy: "However, the lowly will tell everyone that Nina is already my woman - with the prestige and status of the Wilton family, no one must want to marry Nina." ”

"Presumptuous! You...... You're simply lawless! The old man couldn't help but want to smoke Qin Yan.

"Lord Marshal, I, Nina 61 Wilton, is Qin Yan's woman, and in this life, no one has the right to stop us from being together!"

"You ......"

Hearing Nina's sonorous voice, Rachel trembled with anger.

He really couldn't figure out why his niece, who had received a strict education since she was a child, was absolutely loyal to her family, and had always absolutely carried out her words, but in just a few years, she was blinded by someone - what method did Qin Yan, the bastard, use to bewitch her to such an extent?

Laugh at......

The middle-aged man standing behind Ryker suddenly couldn't help laughing, so that Qin Yan couldn't help but be stunned, and Rickel glared at him.

"Let's not talk about this for now."

Racer's face was extremely cold, and he said in a deep voice: "I heard that you got a lot of gray crystals in a mission, and you can take them out now." ”

Qin Yan immediately took out one space box after another and put it on the carpet in front of him, and at the same time unlocked the password of the space box.

The middle-aged man standing behind the old man appeared in front of Qin Yan in a flash, picked up a space box, and looked at the large index of stored items on the projection light screen displayed by the space box with a solemn face. After a while, he took out a gray crystal the size of a soybean, and with Rykel, with a surprised gaze, he looked at the giant gray crystal that kept coming across until it turned into a giant gray crystal with a diameter of nearly two meters and a weight of one or two tons.

Don't you know that when the middle-aged man was doing this series of things, Qin Yan's eyes that looked at him quietly became more and more strange.

"That's right." The middle-aged man nodded at Recker.

"My Tianqin Empire has always had strict military discipline, and meritorious deeds will be rewarded and punished, regardless of the mistakes you have made before......"

"Humble duty has never made mistakes." Qin Yan said.

"Ben Shuai said that if you make a mistake, you will make a mistake, how about it?!" The old man was enraged.

"Well, it's a mistake to be lowly."

“……”

Ryker glanced at him fiercely and shouted, "Your combat exploits this time are relatively large, and it is inconvenient to convert them into combat merits points. Moreover, in order to ensure that this matter is not leaked, if you are given too high military merits, it is easy for people to see the clues, and think of other aspects from the origin of the military achievements. ”

"Isn't the commander-in-chief going to give him lowly military merits?" Qin Yan asked.

"Yes, but Ben Shuai can compensate you in other ways." Rykel looked at Nina, and even a fool could understand what that meant.

"The commander-in-chief is so smart."

The corners of Qin Yan's mouth provoked a chuckle, and said: "As soon as the lowly post came in, you took the relationship between Nina and me, and gave me the name of making a mistake, and now you say that you can't give the lowly position, but you can compensate in other aspects." According to your meaning, I would definitely offer to let you fulfill me and Nina, right? But there is no mistake in the lowly position, and there is no merit to offset the merits - I would rather the commander-in-chief directly refuse to give me the merits of the war. ”
