readx;? [Thank you for the monthly ticket rewards of brothers such as Rainy Season Again, Du Shaoyun, 0712, Light Blue, Wind, and Su in the War!] Thank you! ]
The castle's conference hall wafts with the aroma of ale, roast and fruit. After www.biquge.info the Great War, people not only need to rest, but also need food to fill their stomachs, so Onte prepared plenty of food for these people in the hall. But apparently, their minds were not on the delicious ale brewed by the winemakers of these castles, or on the crispy on the outside, but tender on the inside. Sauce on the steak.
There was a heated discussion going on in the hall.
"It's so weird, can anyone tell me what's going on with those light rains?" The old general Salong said in his loud voice, "God, they are really powerful, and they don't look like the ability of any Ten Saint powerhouses. I'd be happy if there was a mysterious powerhouse to help, but it doesn't look like it, after all, I don't know of any powerhouse who can use such powerful abilities or combat skills without revealing any breath at all! โ
Midian stood by the window, and it was already evening, and the setting sun cast on the corner of the windowsill, making his silver hair glitter with golden light. He said softly, "As far as I know, none of the Ten Saint powerhouses can use that kind of ability or combat skill. The rain of light seemed so cold and unforgiving, I couldn't feel the flavor in it at all. They are more like swords, like weapons without emotion, dedicated to killing. โ
"It's even stranger if it's a weapon." Huo Yi shook his head: "The empire shouldn't have such a powerful weapon yet, right?" Or did the mysterious guys of the ruins investigation team find some ruins and creations? โ
"It's unlikely." Julian took over and said, "When I was in Fort Dawn before, I was also quite interested in the affairs of the investigation team, and I collected reports and information from them. But in those sources, no similar weapons have been seen. โ
Listening to the discussion in the hall, Alan remained silent. But his heart was not as calm as it seemed, those rains of light, those destructive beams of light. Julian: They don't know what it is, but Alan knows very well, it's the fire of a high-energy cannon! Such dense firepower can only be organized by at least a small fleet. Given that those beams of light fell on the positions of the aliens, it is conceivable that the starship fleet hidden high in the sky at that time was either from the Federation or owned by the Adava people.
What Eren couldn't understand was why the Federation, or the Adava Star people, came to Heavenly Star at this time and intervened in the war between the natives within the planet?
This question is like the rain of light discussed by the Salons, and there is never a clear answer.
It wasn't until night fell that the hall dispersed.
Alan returned to his quarters, where the table was already full of people with a delicious dinner. They were all Ellen's subordinates and friends, Lucy and Lola were handing out knives and utensils to each of them like hostesses, Adele used her poisonous tongue to stir up Ragees's anger with three or two clicks as usual, Belmode smiled and patiently taught Shiro how to use knives and forks, Hubble argued that there was obviously not enough wine tonight, and Willic had already drunk with Bloy and Roy, but Father Mirรณ insisted on not drinking a drop of wine, but ruthlessly told Vera next to him the fact that there was wine hidden in the priest's bedroom.
Looking at this face that was red in the light, Alan suddenly felt that it was a rare happiness to be able to gather everyone together after so many things had happened.
Then he was spotted, and Alan took his seat amid a chorus of cries.
He found Edward not present.
Lucy tells him that the dragon has called him back, and that it seems that Edward has something to attend to at Castle of Dawn. And Edward also said that in this kind of national war, he has no part in it. Instead of staying here and staring, it is better to go back to the territory and do something real.
"He's a guy who can't be idle." Alan sighed, then raised his glass and said, "Let's have a toast, this one, to the fact that we are still alive." โ
After drinking a few glasses of ale, everyone seemed to be holding back something, and Alan said angrily: "You want to ask what happened to the light and rain during the day, right?" Well, yes, I think you should have guessed it too, it's not the power of some mysterious powerhouse, and it's not the secret weapon of the Empire. I bet it was simply high-energy cannon fire. โ
Hubble slapped the table, almost knocking it over, and Cato exclaimed, "I'm right, there's anything other than a high-energy beam that can hit with that precision." โ
"You can be louder, better let the people in the castle hear you, and then they will come and ask you, Dear Mr. Hubble, what is a high-energy beam?" Adele rolled her eyes and said.
Hubble blushed, and finally gave up reasoning with Adele, and only drank vigorously. It seems that he has also consulted the girl in the kung fu of the tongue, and has also suffered hardships.
Belmode, who was sitting on the opposite side, said in a slightly solemn tone: "If it's a high-energy beam, it means that extraterrestrial forces are intervening in today's war." Young Master Allen, do you think it will be the Earth Federation, or is it the work of His Highness Lucy's compatriots? โ
"On that point, I guess the answer will soon emerge on its own." Alan blinked, "Until then, I suggest not thinking about these troubles. It's rare for everyone to get together today, so it's better to open your mind and drink freely, isn't it? โ
"Yes, yes, yes, what do you do, it's good if you're not our enemy anyway." Hubble held a wine bottle in his hand, removed the stopper, and poured it into his mouth.
Looking at his booze, Adele shook her head and said, "You will definitely be the first Cato to get drunk to death." โ
The feast lasted until late at night, when a soldier knocked on the door of Allen's house. Lucy went to the answering door, and a moment later the girl returned, and whispered in Alan's ear, "Someone wants to see you, and have the soldier bear the name of Beskord." โ
Alan narrowed his eyes and said softly, "The answer was delivered to the door by itself." โ
He left his seat and personally told the soldiers to lead the man to the study. It didn't take long for someone to knock on the door of the study, and Alan was looking out the window at the barracks at night, and heard the voice say, "Come in." The door opened, and someone entered, wearing a dark cloak under which he hid everything but his face. To Allen's surprise, it was a face that was younger than him, with soft black hair and light blue eyes like a clear sky.
Eren waved his hand and told the soldier to close the door and leave. After the door closed, Alan asked, "Your Excellency?" โ
"Sylfa." The young man said softly, his voice like a midsummer night breeze, soft and gentle: "Mr. Allen, I am from the Federation and am the commander of the Black Wing Legion. โ
Alan was mentally prepared, but when he heard this answer, he was still shocked, and said in a deep voice: "Black Wing, one of the Federation ace legions? So you're a general? โ
"You're right." Sylva nodded, he didn't look like a federal admiral at all, but like a shy boy next door. With a faint smile on his face, he said, "This is the first time we have met, and I hope you won't blame me for being uninvited." โ
"I can't blame it, I'm just a little surprised. And in doing so, I have to thank General Syllfa for his help during the day. โ
Sylva shook his head and said, "Originally, according to the rules, I was not allowed to meddle in the war between the planets, especially at this moment when this planet was being developed by several big families as a colony star. But Mr. Allen was on the battlefield at the time, and I was afraid that the war would affect the meeting between you and me, so I took it upon myself to intervene. I apologize for any trouble caused to the development progress of Beskode in the future. โ
"Oh, I heard the general say that, you came for me?" Alan was surprised, "What is it that makes a Federation Admiral personally come to Heaven Star to find me?" โ
"A major matter is related to the future of the entire Federation, and even all mankind......" Sylva apologized, "Because of the authority, it is inconvenient for me to reveal too much to Mr. Allen." Now I just want you to promise one thing, Mr. President, that you will go back with me at once. That incident needs to be confirmed face to face with Mr. Allen. โ
"You want me to go back immediately?" Alan frowned: "How is that possible, you have also seen that there is still a war to be fought on my side." What's more, you won't even reveal what it is, how do you want me to go with you? โ
Sylva sighed, "It's only natural for Mr. Allen to have this kind of reaction, in fact, I would be quite dissatisfied. But believe me, the stakes are so high that I can't reveal too much here. I can only tell you that Mr. President will not back down in this matter. If Mr. Allen refuses, even by force, I will bring you back. Even if this is the case, it will attract the dissatisfaction of Bethcord. But compared to that incident, this dissatisfaction is nothing. โ
"I'm not threatening, I'm showing my attitude. And I hope you can see my sincerity, I know very well that Mr. Allen's status and power on this planet have not been easy to come by, so this morning I could have just forced the fleet to land and take you away. But in that case, Mr. Allen's identity will be exposed, and his previous efforts will be wasted. That's why I've opted for a more discreet interview, and if that isn't enough to convince Mr. Allen to trust me, then unfortunately I'm afraid I'll have to do something you don't like because of the time constraints. โ
Alan shook his head and laughed: "It's not a threat, it's a threat." You'd better have an answer that satisfies me, or it's not just me, it's my family. โ
"And what do you mean?"
"Of course I'm going with you, do you have a choice for me? Oh, yes, but it probably doesn't make a difference. Alan said in a deep voice: "But you have to give me some time, I have to arrange the affairs after I leave, before I can leave with you." โ
"Of course, but please understand, I can only give you two days at most." Sylva said softly.
"Not much, so-so is enough." Alan Dao.
