Chapter 1598: The Dragon of the Candle

Contrary to the reaction of the outside world, the atmosphere in a space station in the high-altitude orbit of Natasha Star inside the Kehanos star system is very oppressive. Seck Bakar patted his wife's hand and signaled her not to worry too much.

Henrietta sat on the couch facing the doorway, silent. The cigarette in Gilcott's hand burned slowly, and the ashes fell to the ground little by little.

Obviously, they won the war and kept the Atlantis space station, but the room was filled with not joy, only depression and dullness.

"Why, why can't you even look at a woman!" Tang Fang's suppressed voice of infinite anger resounded in the room.

For the first time, he couldn't control his emotions, especially when dealing with old people and friends like Henrietta, Gilcot and Seck Bakar.

No one spoke, not because they were afraid of exacerbating his emotions, but because none of them knew how to answer the question.

yes, so many people...... It's really embarrassing to say that you can't even look at a woman.

Tang Fang is indeed qualified and has the right to be angry with them, because it is his fiancΓ©e, Elena, who is missing!

As soon as communication was restored from the Lost Lands, the Dreadnought-class fortress ship received an urgent call from the Dillard star system, and Kelinia told him the very bad news that Elena was missing.

During the time of his disappearance, the girl seemed to evaporate from the world and disappeared into the Khanos star system. There were no signs of a fight, no signs of invasion, just a note from a girl.

This seems to indicate that she left on her own, and it was her own choice.

Logically speaking, this matter has little to do with Henrietta and others, but emotionally speaking, it is difficult for Tang Fang to accept this kind of thing, so there is a tragic ending that the mysterious fleet of the Sauron Empire did not even escape from a single shuttle, so he was too excited to be questioned angrily in the conference room...... Some can't control their emotions.

Outsiders will never know that the heavy losses of the Sauron Empire are not the act of prestige after the return of Captain Tang, but simply because they have a bad year, they just hit the muzzle of the gun and become a sad victim.

He held a note in his hand with only a few words on it.

"I have something I have to do, don't look for me----- Elena."

When the room cleaners found the note, they realized that Elena was missing. Seck Bakar and Gilcot searched all the places where Elena could go, but found nothing, not even a clue.

"I don't want a note. I want her people. The more Tang Fang spoke, the more angry he became, and the more he spoke, the more anxious he became: "Space station staff, patrol team, three-layer warp speed interception net, customs...... I'm so ashamed of you that there are so many people and institutions, and you can't even look down on a powerless woman. ”

He rebuked the garrison of the Khanos star system, but Gilcott was blushed by what he said, and only Henrietta was still calm, drooping his eyelids as if asleep, leaving him there to vent his emotions.

"Tang Fang, calm down." Claire persuaded from the side: "The matter has already come out, you can't help solve the problem like this, what is needed most now is to gather as much information as possible to determine Elena's whereabouts." ”

Thinking back to what had happened before, she sighed heavily.

In that strange airspace, after Tang Fang discovered two world ships, he not only obtained powerful weapons such as the Arden Spear, but also made the Star Spirit Building manifest in the area of influence of the hydrolens system through transplantation operations.

After that, Kelax upgraded the Blue Mars' navigation system and jump guidance system by integrating the resources of the two fortress ships. And then...... They discovered a shocking fact.

That strange space was not unfamiliar to them, but they had never thought of it.

The colorful energy filling the airspace is the dark area of the core of the Lost Lands, and for unknown reasons, the outside world has no way to discern the inside of the black curtain, which is seen as a structure similar to a dust cloud at the edge of the black hole's gravity field.

Unexpectedly, the Waltz's crystal device sent them directly from the Celtic star system to the Lost Lands Core Exclusion Zone.

In that kind of space-time structure, if it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that the only result would be trapped and died...... Of course, even if it was Captain Tang, if there was no ghost envoy who discovered the Azure Mars and the Epsilon World Ship, he could only sigh in the face of such an environment.

After Galax implanted the guidance equipment derived from the Ipsi Dragon World Ship into the Blue Mars, the Elantra World Ship was turned into a special relay station.

First, it was able to erect a subspace tunnel between the Paradise World Ipsi Dragon Jump Relay and itself large enough to accommodate the Dreadnought-class Bastion ships. Second, through the efforts of Galax and the investment of a large number of zero-prime isotopes, Azure Mars was finally able to communicate with the transition relay station of the Omega-2 star system and build another subspace tunnel.

In other words, after a lot of efforts to isotope zero, a safe passage to the outside world was finally opened with Azure Mars as the intermediate node.

As a result, Nidhogg's purpose of banishing them to the Lost Lands was frustrated. But the Paradise Star and the Wandering Planet are literally trapped inside.

Starting from the current quality of space, the Ipsi Dragon Leap Relay Station was not enough to afford the planet-level units to enter the subspace tunnel, so Tang Fang could only reluctantly discard these two super weapons and choose to travel lightly and leave the Jedi in a dreadnought-class fortress ship.

Because he had harvested the Arden Spear inside, which was a more powerful weapon than Paradise Star and the Wandering Planet, Captain Tang did not show any regret. After all, Nidhogg's fleet is gone, the Waltz is gone, the Sword of Krum is finished, and the Morningstar forging is intact, which is a bit unreasonable...... Well, she knew that Tang Fang was so comforting herself.

In fact, Galax said that the easiest way to take out the wandering planet and the paradise star is for Tang Fang to negotiate with Po Suji, and get another set of crystal devices configured with a waltz under the radish and stick, and the rest will be handed over to him.

Anyway, in the end, Tang Fang loaded the epic creatures of the paradise world into the spear of Arden and left there without looking back.

It has been a long time since the outbreak of the Celtic star system battle, and the next thing to do is to rush back to the Dillard star system as soon as possible to stabilize the situation. One can imagine what kind of turmoil will occur in the Hillenbuir region after he and the Sword of Krum disappear.

It's just that...... Before Tang could get into a storm of public opinion caused by the destruction of Celtic, Kelinia told them that Elena was missing. They didn't even return to the Dillard star system, and rushed directly to the Kehanos star system, so there was a scene that happened before.

The girl's persuasion was still very useful, Tang Fang took a deep breath, slowly suppressed the excitement in his heart, calmed down after a while, and said to Henrietta and Gilcott: "I'm sorry, I was too excited just now. ”

His Royal Highness the Prince Regent shook his head and said, "You have entrusted Elena to us, she has suddenly disappeared now, and we have an unshirkable responsibility. ”

Gilcott nodded beside him: "But...... Where can she go, will she be able to return to the Charles Federation? ”

Although Elena has the title of duchess, she does not have many people to socialize with. She grew up in Charles Commonwealth, where she had grandparents, classmates, teachers and playmates, and in general more friends than in the United Kingdom of Tulanx.

Louise said: "I contacted the Charles Federation side on this issue a few days ago. Elena...... Didn't go back. ”

Tang Fang sighed, told a few people his plans, turned around and left the room, and drove the shuttle to the space station where Elena lived alone.

………………

It's still the same, nothing has changed, the pedestal used to charge VIVI is placed in the corner of the desk, and the fragrance of jasmine wafts in the air, elegant and long-lasting.

He saw in a trance that the little girl who pretended to be mature greeted him with honorifics, and then scolded VIVI with weak words not to put the words of regret all day long, and then turned his head and said sorry to himself very seriously...... Even if he doesn't care about the robot's mean face at all.

Now the room was empty, without a hint of life.

On the bed in the back room are the dolls and pillows that Tang Yun gave to Elena, as well as interesting comic books.

In Xiao Nizi's words, she just wants Elena to be inseparable from her brother and angry at the metal braincase who has to regret her marriage all day long...... I don't know if the robot will suddenly crash when it's angry, it must be fun.

Now, these have become memories, and no one will talk about the small things that happened around them with some restraint like reporting work. Maybe it didn't seem like much to him, but it was Elena's life.

In the past, he always felt that his marriage contract with Elena had a deep political marriage background, and he always had some resistance and rejection, and his relationship with her has always remained like a separation, after all, he was too busy to spend time with her. Even if she has some free time, Freya and Claire will share most of it.

She didn't feel anything when she was there, but now that she was gone, looking at the familiar room, the familiar layout, there was a feeling of emptiness for no reason, not very intense pain, very soft melancholy.

He sat down on Elena's bed and couldn't help but smile as he looked at the motto she had put on the lamp to cheer him up.

"Elena...... Where the hell have you been? ”

Maybe it's because I'm too tired these days, from the outbreak of the Celtic Star System Battle, to falling into the dark area of the Lost Lands, to getting out of danger safely and hearing the news of the girl's disappearance, I have always been highly nervous along the way, and I haven't relaxed.

Unconsciously sniffed the long-lost fragrance and fell asleep.

Exhaustion eroded him into a dream. In the crowded streets, Elena walked by without squinting, as if she didn't know him at all.

He was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted and called out the girl's name, the crowd around him obscured his vision. When he pushed away the guy who was in the way around him, there was no familiar figure in front of him.

"Elena, Elena......" He was in a hurry, and he woke up in shock. However, before he could wake up and recover from the nightmare, a ticking sound came from the mobile video camera on his wrist, interrupting his reminiscences of the nightmare.

He didn't pay attention to what time it was, how long he had been sleeping in Elena's bed, and when he saw the communication link from Claire, he clicked the connect button as soon as possible.

There was no video show, only a familiar voice: "Lilietta of the Bahamut Pirates is here, saying that there is important news and I must interview you." ”

Bahamut Pirates? Lilietta is here? He patted his face to sober himself up, collected his thoughts about Elena, and left the space station the same way he came, and took a shuttle to the high-altitude orbit of Natasha's star.

Before entering the space station, I saw the Heart of the Dragon King parked in an open berth from a distance.

In the past, when Lilietta went to Dillard Star System, she drove him by shuttle, and rarely drove the Dragonlord's Heart into the harbor with great fanfare. After all, the Bahamut Pirates are a bit of a bit more open-minded, and appearing in public without scruples will attract the attention of ill-intentioned people.

Intelligence services and secret services in many countries covet their intelligence.

What happened to make this female pirate who looks like a ruffian but is very capable change her usual steady?

With this question in mind, he parked the shuttle and walked quickly to the first conference room.

When you arrive at your destination, you push the door open and walk in, and Lilietta is the only one in the room.

She sat on the couch with her back to the door, a cup of coffee in front of her, which had cooled down. From the waterline, I put it like that, and I didn't drink even a sip. This seems to indicate that she is very preoccupied, and she is not even interested in drinking coffee.

He was not surprised that Gilcott, Henrietta and the others were not present, after all, the cooperation only existed between Morningstar Casting and the Bahamut Pirates, and he wanted to be the leader of a secret organization, and he didn't want outsiders to have relevant information.

Hearing the knock on the door behind her, Lilietta quickly reacted, got up from the sofa, and saw that it was him, and the expression on her face became more solemn.

There is no teasing that has been staged many times before, and there is no joy of reunion after a long absence.

The uneasiness in Tang Fang's heart became even stronger, and he didn't greet her politely, and asked straight to the point: "What's wrong?" ”

Lilietta took a deep breath and said, "Elena...... You already know about the disappearance. ”

Tang Fang's face changed when he heard this, he thought that Lilietta was here because of the thorny problem of strategic layout, but he thought that the first thing she said was about Elena.

According to Kyrillia's previous report, the Bahamut Pirates are providing intelligence to the Covenant Navy to help them encircle and suppress the Xudra Legion guerrillas deep into the border, and have achieved great success, and Adam Oliver and the Ministry of Defense have repeatedly hoped to meet this legendary figure through the channels of the Morning Star.
