Ivan ran away in a gloomy manner, and he really didn't dare to resist Katarina's anger, and his back as he walked out of the room was so small compared to the calm that he had talked about before.

Caterina unleashed the little princess's temper like never before, throwing the pillows all over the room, making Harold, who had just returned, think that Her Royal Highness was in danger, and her huge body broke through the door, only to see a dignified Caterina The appearance of a little girl.

Harold was a loyal guard, and when he saw that the princess was unhappy, he hurriedly asked, "Your Royal Highness, what's wrong with you?" Could it be Ivan? ”

Caterina didn't grasp the true meaning of Harold's words, and she instinctively replied, still angry, "Ivan is a bastard!" He, he actually slandered the morning star, and he me off! ”

Harold instantly understood something, and felt a black line on his face, didn't the princess quarrel with Morning Star, looking at that posture, it was obvious that she was going to break up, but why was she so angry because Ivan said that Morning Star was bad, could it be that these were all small fights between lovers?

Although Harold looks very honest on the surface, he is not stupid, knowing that the princess's performance is seen by himself, I am afraid that it will damage the noble image of the princess, so he quickly pretended not to hear anything, and was about to turn away.

Caterina also seemed to realize that she had accidentally said what was in her heart, and hurriedly said: "No, no, I said it wrong, I'll say it again." Morningstar, this bastard, actually treated me like that, and he pissed me off! ”

Harold was uncomfortable, no wonder it was said that the IQ of a woman in love would decrease, Princess Caterina is not a living example? But he is a loyal guard, and he must maintain his image, and he must not laugh. Harold, who was blushing and thick-necked, looked a little ridiculous, wrinkled like a bitter melon, but pretended not to hear anything.

Seeing Harold's appearance, Caterina actually smiled, this big guy is really honest. Waving her little fist, Caterina said, "Harold, if you say it, I'll beat you!" ”

Harold hurriedly nodded yes and fled the room. Through the door, Caterina could hear the guy's mouth covered with laughter. But after all, the mood was much better because of Harold, and Caterina seemed to have come out of her previous low mood, and waved her fist a few times again, and said to herself: "But I can't be cheap that villain, I won't forgive him so quickly!" ”

……

What happened in Buttkamp was known to Vistock as soon as possible, and the video of the arena on his desk completely recorded everything that happened during that time, from the infiltration of the Manifest Destiny Party's mecha competition, to the strange mecha summoned by Morningstar again, and then the killing and the conversation between Caterina and Morningstar, all of which were watched by Vestock indeavily. For Vistock, it wasn't the first time he had heard of the Morning Star, a mech called a trap, and there were countless signs of his presence during the Warrenfsburg incident. Vistock had told Caterina to learn more about this mech when she went to accompany Morningstar, and even if she couldn't get specific information about him, at least to confirm whether it was a product of the Republic. What made Vistock laugh and cry was that his precious daughter Katarina, who patronized me with Morning Star, forgot all about this task. However, judging from the performance of everyone in the Yanyuan, Vistock can be sure that this mecha is only owned by Morning Star, and Morning Star's sentence of "let the world know your existence" made Vistock feel at ease. The guy who was called a trap by Morningstar, if it was really assembled in batches by the Republic, would it be worth it?

However, compared to Morning Star's combat skills, Vistock felt that none of these seemed to be important, the young Morning Star, very spicy and experienced in battle, did not seem to be able to have it at all for a person of his age, especially when he killed the last person, there was that weird attack method that was shouted by Morning Star as annihilation, which obviously did not belong to human weapons.

Vistock sat in his study, his fingers tapping to the left in front of him, lost in thought.

Morningstar's final conversation with Caterina was clear, and this kind of scene faintly touched a sensitive area of Vistock's heart. At that moment, unlike what others thought, Vistock could faintly feel the sadness in Morningstar's heart.

Vistock knows that once a man is responsible, there are things that he has to do, and that's how he has come along the way. And Morningstar's choice is obviously because of the burden on his shoulders. Caterina had told Vistock not long ago that the Morning Star had big plans. At first, Vestock thought that Morningstar wanted to start a sect and become the founding emperor of a country, but later, after Caterina's explanation, he learned that Morningstar's height had far exceeded the infighting between humans, and what he had to do was to work for the safety of the entire human race. Vistock still remembers that when Caterina was talking to herself, the adoration in her water-cut eyes was about to compare herself to that of a father, but now Caterina had an awkward quarrel with Morningstar because of this incident.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a thick stack of papers on the table, and Vistock could only temporarily put aside the small conflict between his precious daughter and his son-in-law-to-be. Picking up the document and reading it carefully again, Vistock sighed deeply. The reform plan of the mecha competition was decided by itself, and the plan handed over by the people below can be said to be very perfect, and it was inadvertently promoted by Morning Star, which originally meant that in the next few decades, the empire could make huge profits by holding the mecha competition, but now that the Northern Heavenly Mandate Sect is making such a fuss, I really don't know what the result will be. The document in Vystock's hand was an investigation report on the Mandate of Heaven that had just been handed in earlier.

Vistock never imagined that this Mandate of Heaven sect could grow so rapidly. According to the data, the first record of the Manifest Destiny Sect occurred half a year ago, on a small planet in the Alliance's Aglan Star Zone, a man holding a doctrine and covering his face in a cloak gave a speech. Under the Coalition system, no one cares about speeches like this. Although the speech pointed out the shortcomings of the alliance in many places, and magnified the time that some people hated, it did not attract the attention of any of the coalition officials. From then on, a large number of self-proclaimed Mandate Missionaries recruited followers from all over Agren's interests, and the sudden emergence of the Mandate of Heaven sect quickly developed into a behemoth with a large number of followers, a process that took only two months. The rapid development momentum of the Mandate of Heaven Sect finally made some crisis-conscious Alliance officials begin to notice them, but it was too late, after the Mandate of Heaven Sect had a base of believers, it controlled a large number of mid-level Alliance officials through bribery, extortion, kidnapping, assassination, and other shady means, which made the decrees of the Agron Star Region ineffective and unheard. Almost at the same time, the Mandate of Heaven believers from the Agron Star Region began to infiltrate the empire and the republic, and the effect is naturally needless to say, just look at the mecha competition held by the empire this time.

However, there are still many doubts in this information that are difficult for Vistock to understand. For example, the three ships of the Manifest Destiny Sect that wandered away in outer space in Buttkamp, according to reports from the front-line troops, these three ships were commodities exported by the alliance several decades ago, and now it seems that the three ships should exist like classic cars, and their collection value is far greater than their actual use. But when the Imperial warriors landed on these three ships, they found many places that were far beyond today's technology. For example, the energy system, for example, the communication system, and for example, the firepower, these three old ships are on the ground, even the military experts of the empire cannot identify. What does this mean? Could it be that a mere Heavenly Mandate Sect already has such an advanced level of technology? Vistock couldn't believe that the Republic had the It-Gleeson Group centered on the Morning Star, and the Alliance had the Mandate of Heaven sect that wanted to stand on its own, leaving only an empire and nothing. But fortunately, his daughter has a good relationship with Morning Star, thinking of this, Vistock suddenly realized something, and then shook his head with a wry smile.

At that moment, a remote communication device on his desk began to shine, and Vystock's wry smile instantly turned into a kind smile, because this communication device was exclusive to him and Katarina.

After connecting the communication, Caterina appeared in front of Vistock with a somewhat tired face, which made Vistock a little distressed, and hurriedly asked, "Carter, is Morning Star bullying you?" ”

Katerina's expression became a little sad after hearing Vistock's words, and her mouth seemed to cry out as soon as she held back, no matter how strong a girl is, she is always vulnerable in front of her parents, hearing her father's voice, Katerina's heart suddenly collapsed, wiping her tears and telling her about the small conflict between her and the morning star.

Of course, Vistock knew what was going on between Caterina and Morningstar, and the reason why he endured the pain of stabbing his daughter's wounded heart again was nothing more than to give the persuasion a good start later. Listening to Caterina tell the story, Vistock nodded and shook his head, his face cloudy. After Caterina finished speaking, Vistock pretended to be angry and slapped the table and shouted, "Morningstar, this bastard, dares to treat my Vistock daughter like this, I think he is tired of life!" Carter, as long as you nod your head and agree, I will immediately send troops to slaughter this kid, I don't care what he has made outstanding contributions to the empire, I don't care what he is responsible for the safety of mankind, and I can't bully my daughter! ”

Caterina was obviously startled when she heard her father's roar, she knew Vistock's temper, and if she started a fire, she really didn't care, maybe she could really kill the Morning Star. But when I think about it, there's something wrong. Caterina knows Vistock, although as the head of the Empire, Vistock can be said to be notorious, but Caterina knows that her father is a very principled person, and she understands that when Vistock is really angry, he will never shout like this, but will calmly make people feel terrifying.

Thinking about this problem clearly, coupled with the statement that Vicstock was responsible for Morningstar, Caterina also understood that Vetok was just amusing herself, so she said, "Father, how can you help Morningstar speak!" Saying that, her eyes blinked a few times, and the crystal tears slipped down again, that pitiful look, if it weren't for Vistock's deep understanding of her, I really don't know if she would have been deceived by her.

Vistock sighed lightly and said earnestly: "Carter, I know that you and Morning Star only have some small conflicts between them, which is inevitable between lovers. But as your father, I want to say to you that the man who can match you will definitely not be a soft egg who only knows the love of his children every day. I know very well what is going on between you and Morningstar, and I can say that neither of you has done anything wrong. But I hope you can understand that there are many contradictions in this world, not because someone has done something wrong, but because of different positions. Seeing that Katarina's attention had gradually been drawn to her words, Vistock continued: "As the princess of the Empire, my daughter of Vistock, you have never been exposed to too much blood and killing, and what you have seen is more of the beautiful side of human nature, which has made you kind and forgiving. But Morningstar is different, he is a man, a warrior, and he has more intrigue and blood to face. A woman can live happily and comfortably by the man's side, because the man uses his body and arms to shield the woman from all dangers. And such a man needs not only a pair of iron bones, but also firm faith and determination. I don't want to comment on what Morningstar is doing is right or wrong, because there is a reason for everything. But I appreciate his decisiveness very much, even if there is opposition, but still adhere to his principles, just like Morning Star himself said, touching his reverse scales, will usher in his never-ending revenge, his relatives, his friends are his reverse scales, I believe, you are even more. ”

Vetok's words made Caterina fall into deep thought, and after a long time, she slowly raised her head and said, "Father, do you mean that I am wrong?" ”

Vistock hurriedly waved his hand to deny it and replied: "Daughter, you are not wrong, and Morning Star is not wrong, you can try to think about the problem from his standpoint, I believe that he will also understand your thoughts, communicate more, and you will get back together." ”

"So, then I'm going to apologize to Morningstar?" Caterina had already been persuaded by Vistock and was a little shy to ask for Vistock's opinion.

Vistock smiled and stroked the hard beard under his chin, and said: "There is no need to apologize, there is no man in this world who can ignore my daughter's gentleness, be confident, you are the princess of the empire!" I'm the jewel of Vystock! ”

"Hmm!" There was no more unhappiness in Karina's answer, and the relaxed feeling made Vistock's mood happy.

"But father, I think Morningstar's actions this time may cause him a lot of unexpected trouble, can you help him?"

Vystock laughed again when he heard this, and said dotingly: "This is the real purpose of your search for me!" ”

In the video, Caterina lowered her head again, and two flashes of red flew up her cheeks.

Vistock stroked his steel hair again and said, "Don't worry, this incident will only threaten the Morning Star with the Alliance, the Republic and the top of our empire, and the purpose is definitely not to seek justice for those few Heavenly Mandate Sect dead soldiers, but nothing more than to get this advanced mecha from Morning Star." I will condemn the alliance through the official empire, after all, the Slayer team is a contestant from the alliance, and these little bastards of the alliance are actually doing things on my turf, how can I let them go so easily. And there is Layton on the side of the Republic, and besides, Morningstar is also their man, so he will definitely not be too difficult. But Katarina, my father wants to ask you for a favor, I don't know if you can agree. ”

Caterina was puzzled by Vistock's polite attitude, and asked, "Father, if there is anything you need me to do, why do you say help?" ”

Vistock smiled embarrassedly, the expression on his face was not the majesty of the head of the empire, but like an old man who was a philistine. Rubbing his hands, Vistock said: "That, when you and Morning Star are reconciled, you will blow more pillow wind to him, no matter what, I am also his father-in-law, this kid has such an advanced weapon in his hand, I can't let me see it, but I can't touch it, right?" It shouldn't be difficult to get this kid to go back and give us some technology! ”

"Oops, you hate it!" With Caterina's coquettish voice, the video communication came to an abrupt end, one was a smiling Vetok, and the other was a blushing Katarina.

"Pillow wind?" The slight coolness made Caterina hug her arms tightly, and it also made her miss the temperature in Morningstar's arms even more, and muttered to herself, "Morningstar, are you thinking about me now?" ”

Vistock was as resolute as rumored by the outside world, and a diplomatic letter was placed on Tommy Corinthian's desk shortly after the end of the phone call between Vistock and Katarina, and the harsh words in the content made Tommy's secretary feel cold sweat, because with his knowledge of Vistock, he was so angry, and the result was likely to be between the two countries for this, even if you think about it on the bright side, trade sanctions are indispensable. But Tommy Corinthy still had a nonchalant smile, which made the secretary a little incomprehensible, and asked, "President, aren't you worried that Vistock will retaliate at all costs?" ”

Tommy looked at the young man in front of him and said with a smile: "You're still too young, and you haven't seen things deep enough, you should learn from Locke." Where is Vestock furious, just using this guise to protect his son-in-law! It's a pity that Locke was defeated in the first emotional war. Tommy stood up, walked to the window and looked out at the stars, and muttered, "What kind of man will your son be?" ”
