Chapter 1409: Nova's Responsibility
After all, Athena was an important figure in God's armed forces, and it is likely that she held the more precious shipbuilding craft in her hands...... For example, the Nautilus-class special service ships, the Wing Limb Horseshoe Crab-class armored ships, the Ammonite-class battleships, and the Djinn-class super battleships. After the destruction of the Ark world, the Divine Armed Forces lost the basis for building flying machines, and the best way for her to seek revenge was to unite with the Monya Empire or the Sulu Empire, and use the resources of the national forces to form a battle legion.
Speaking of this is a big project, in fact, it is not difficult to operate, she only sanitized the clone Helois, and then approached the first prince in charge of the production and construction of the Mengya Empire through her husband's channel, and the mission goal was half successful.
"Thank you for the tip, I'll send someone to investigate this." He thanked him sincerely.
Lilietta smiled and nodded, and said with a little deep thought: "The informant who provided us with information is not high-ranked, and there is no way to unearth more valuable information, but as an old fritter who has been operating for a long time in the Salas star system, it can provide a lot of convenience for the investigation work, and your people can go to him when they get there...... I'll send you the information about the informant later. ”
Tang Fang said thank you again, and then disconnected the communication connection with the eldest sister.
"Salas star system...... If I'm not mistaken, Payne of Garcia's Resistance? Catro is also imprisoned there, but it is unknown if he has anything to do with Athena's appearance. ”
Grant hearing Payne? Catello's name couldn't help but be excited, and he looked at him with a gaze that could be called hot.
He knew what it would mean for the future captain of the Pure Land of Bliss to give such a look------ and he needed to send a reliable person to the Salas star system to investigate Athena's whereabouts, a mission that Grant hoped would follow.
He directly ignored Mr. Reliable's enthusiastic gaze and turned in the direction of the ship's officer: "Can anyone tell me where Nova has gone?" ”
He hadn't seen Miss Agent since three days ago, because he had a lot of business at hand, and he didn't care about the situation. Now Lilietta has sent an important piece of information, and he thinks it is a good opportunity for Nova to make a move, but when she tries to communicate through the power of the system, she finds that the call has been lost in the sea, and there is no response.
This can only mean one thing------ Nova left the Dillard star system and went to a region that the system could not sense.
The temporary ship officer did not dare to slack off, and immediately inquired about Miss Nova's whereabouts, and then received a report from the Dillar Star System patrol fleet that Miss Nova was riding on the Griffin left through the exit passage five days ago, and when the guard on duty released her, she left a text message saying that she would go and return, and it would take no more than half a month at most.
Well, this Nizi ran out to have fun by herself, and she didn't even notice him.
Calculating the time, half a month is nearly halfway over, if there is no problem, she will return smoothly in another week or so, and the matter of the Salas star system does not need to be rushed, compared to summoning Mira? Han, it's better to wait for Nova for a few days.
Grant still didn't hold back, pointed to his face and said, "Since Nova is not here, why don't you leave this task to me to complete, speaking of which...... I know a little more about the social situation in the Monya Empire than she does. ”
Tang Fang said: "Do you know how much your head is worth now?" 80 Billion Star Coins! ”
Grant, Churchill and others certainly did not have a high level of understanding of the current social situation in the Mengya Empire, and when they heard that their heads were worth 80 billion star coins, Mr. Reliable opened his mouth wide and looked shocked. Although he is no longer the same person he used to be, as an important person in the Morning Star Minting, his worth is certainly not comparable to that in the past, but for Grant, who has always been thrifty, 80 billion star coins are still classified in the astronomical range.
"You know I hate it when someone threatens me with the life of a friend or family member." Tang Fang said, but did not look back and walked outside: "Not giving you the opportunity to take risks can effectively avoid this situation,"
Grant was stunned for a moment, and said helplessly: "Then why do you rest assured that Nova will carry out such a dangerous mission?" ”
"She's different." When he said this, Tang Fang's figure disappeared on the other side of the security door.
Grant was speechless at this inexplicable answer, but he knew that Tang Fang would not let him carry out this dangerous mission no matter what. Since Aroth's accident, the captain has become more cautious in dealing with this kind of problem.
………………
At the same time, the Silver Eagle Regiment on the other side of the Tianchao Star Region is experiencing a political turmoil, which is not serious, but the highly respected Third Archon suddenly disappeared, as if he had disappeared from this world, casting a shadow over the current situation of civil strife.
Fortunately, with Hoffman to maintain, there were no major problems in the short term.
On Hilde in the Lunal star system, the Nuland Building is bathed in the warm morning light, and the glass curtain wall reflects dazzling brilliance, reflecting the waves in the distance.
The political turmoil did not have much impact on social production and people's lives, and when the sun rose, migrant workers boarded the train to their posts, and housewives sent off their husbands and children, and began a new day of housework.
The earth will continue to rotate without anyone, and time will not stop because of someone's retrospectiveness.
At a distance of 452 kilometers from the Newland Building, the sun shines through the dense forest on the relatively gentle land at the foot of the hill, and I forget to kiss the grass bathed in the morning dew.
The flowers are fragrant and the mountain roads are slender. The breath of spring is like a new painting on paper, clear and distinct.
There are only a few villas scattered at the end of the mountain road, perhaps the main family is sleepy, or it may be that no one lives, and the mountain forest is quiet, only occasionally a pair of birds fly out, injecting a touch of lightness and throbbing into this world.
The tranquility and beauty were disturbed by the wind from the sky, and the trees swayed their crowns as if they could not bear the hot wind.
About 30 meters above the ground, translucent light waves swirled like ripples, and the Gryphon broke out of its stealth and revealed its true appearance.
The wings on both sides were flattened downward, the firelight faded from flourishing to waning, and the fuselage landed steadily in the clearing between the trees.
After a few breaths, the left hatch of the Gryphon opened, and Nova stepped out of it.
There is another person behind her, if Tang Fang is here, he will definitely call out his name------ Yager, who is the only blood of the veteran in the world.
Speaking of which, young people are in a bad state. The bad here does not refer to his mental outlook, but to his external attributes.
There were several redness and swelling on his face, a bruise on the corner of his mouth, a broken nose, and blood stains underneath, which looked miserable enough. He was a police officer at the Lunal Space Prison, but the handcuffs used to bind the prisoner were now tightly bound to his hands, and there was a rope in front of him that extended to Nova's palm.
To be precise, he was dragged off the Griffin by Nova. I think the wound on his face was also due to Miss Agent.
"What do you want, you wicked woman?" He questioned loudly as he walked, perhaps focusing on the woman in front of him, or perhaps he was so dizzy that he didn't notice the bulge under his feet and almost tripped to the ground.
"Hmph." Nova looked back at him, but didn't answer, but pulled him back with her hand, and continued to walk towards the shade on the other side of the lawn.
The griffin grew smaller and smaller behind her, and the sun shone straight down on her back, shining warmly on the people.
Yeager never imagined that he had slept well in the dormitory of the Lunal Space Prison Officer, but he was knocked unconscious by the uninvited passenger who suddenly broke in, and when he came back to his senses, he had already left his place of work and entered a spaceship.
He thought he had been kidnapped by the bad guys, until he finally came to his senses and figured out what had happened when he saw that impressive face. It was this woman who pushed him to the ground on the Dreadnought-class fortress ship, sabotaging his assassination plan against the Tang side.
Although he hated this woman, and to some extent feared this woman, at least there was an advantage to seeing her, he knew that his life was saved, and as his father's friend, this hateful woman would not kill him.
So why did she tie herself up to this strange place?
Yeager didn't know what Nova's motive was for treating him like this, and he couldn't ask why, but he couldn't beat the other party, so he could only be pulled and staggered forward by his opponent like a captive.
There is no doubt that this is a very humiliating thing......
As Jaeger's thoughts swirled, the two of them had left the sunlit area and entered the shade ahead, walking along a path dappled with dappled sunlight.
It was evident that few people walked this path, and there were a lot of fallen leaves on the ground, as well as scattered stones and gravel.
Nova was silent, save for the soft sound of the soles of her shoes hitting the stone slabs echoing through the trees and the mountain paths.
The two of them meander upwards one after the other, the sun sometimes flourishing, sometimes distant, waving away the moisture characteristic of the early morning, but also arousing the heavy fragrance of plants and trees, and the breeze blowing in their faces.
All the way up the stairs. A fine bead of sweat climbed on Jayger's back, feeling a little breathless, and when his breathing became heavy, Miss Agent, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.
She moved slightly to the side, and Jaeger was able to see what lay ahead.
At the end of the trail is a relatively flat mountainous area, with some beautiful flowers and grass growing on the left side, and it can be seen from the plate structure that the mountain fields were previously cultivated, but unfortunately they have been barren for a long time.
On the sunny ground on the right side of Yamada, a line of pale color was revealed in the weeds, and he walked a little closer before he could see the true appearance of the pale color...... A tombstone.
I don't know how long it has been standing here, after years of wind and rain, the stele looks very old, and the handwriting on it has become very blurry and illegible.
Nova parted the weeds on the ground, stood under a plane tree next to the tombstone, and pulled Yagger in front of her with her arms forward, and said in a cold voice, "Look carefully at what is written on it." ”
At the top of the inscription is a narrow cross, on which many etchings have been left by the years. Underneath the cross-hatchet is the name of the person, which is also mottled, and can only barely make out the three characters "Valerie" in front of it.
The date of birth and death below the name is also unclear, but it does not prevent the viewer from concluding that the life of the tomb owner was short.
Underneath the names and dates of birth and death is the epitaph, which is very short, with only four words, "May there be a ...... in the afterlife", which is the clearest line of characters in a few lines on the surface of the tombstone, because it has only been wiped not long ago.
Valerie...... Valerie ...... Valeria ...... Apollo. Jaeger chewed on the name of the person on the tombstone, his brow gradually furrowed, he didn't know what the name meant, but he felt that this name had a very special connection with him.
Does he know Roland? Laximon is his father, but he doesn't know his mother's name. During an in-depth conversation at Lunal Space Prison, Aros was kicked out as soon as he identified himself, without mentioning anything about his mother.
After that, he pretended to admit his relatives and infiltrated the Dreadnought-class fortress ship, because he had an assassination mission in mind, and he also had no heart to ask what his mother's name was and where she lived now.
So until his father with Lev? Milonovic? Bukharin died, and he didn't know who his mother was, and to some extent had no interest in finding out more. It was enough for him to remember that his father was a sinner of the state, and that his mother abandoned him in a welfare home when he was very young......
Who wants to raise the son of a sinner of a nation? Nobody wants to. So he thinks it's normal to have such a growth experience, so he doesn't plan to resent it, and he doesn't plan to get close to his biological mother.
He felt that it was good to live alone without relatives and no reason...... How can life not be a lifetime, why force perfection.
Until today, when I was brought here by Miss Agent, I couldn't help but have some guesses when I saw the old tombstone in front of me.
Nova interrupted his self-talk: "Yes, Valeria? Apollo...... Your mother. ”
The word "mother" hit his heart like a hammer. He had always thought that his mother had abandoned him because of his father's sensitive status, and now he should be living somewhere, with filial children and a kind husband. How did he know that things were not as he thought, his mother had been dead for many years, and the grave was at his feet.
At this time, looking at the date of birth and death recorded on the tombstone, I suddenly found that the date of Valeria's death was very close to the date of receipt recorded by the welfare institution, and it seemed that not long after giving birth to him, my mother passed away.
Yeager has always thought that he was abandoned, and before he learned the identity of his father's national sinner, when a person was cranky, he always felt that fate was cruel to him, there are so many people in the world, why did this kind of thing happen to him.
He can only admonish himself to be stronger and look away, since he can't resist fate, he can only grit his teeth and face the difficulties.
The scene presented in front of him made his solitary star-like arrogance collapse.
Jaeger stared blankly at the lonely tombstone in front of him, while Nova looked at the wet cigar butt on the gravel floor next to her, her expression a little complicated.
