The Emperor has been missing for more than a month, and a lot of things have happened in this month or so, although because the Emperor Su Ye Mulan did not have the vassal kings to spend a lot of money to die on the spot under the net of heaven and earth laid by the Nanshan Huimeng, but Sima's heart is clearly revealed, and the frequent transfer of troops around the Qinjing Star Domain has marked the chaos has appeared.

In the Nanshan Palace, in the intelligence collection hall temporarily set up by the Imperial Intelligence Agency, countless personnel shuttled back and forth in a holographic light curtain-like data with solemn faces, and then made a series of reports in the most concise and fast words through the communication channel, but other than that, these data mixed with a slight static electricity annihilation sound flowed at high speed, and nothing else.

No one dares to take it lightly, since the emperor disappeared in Nanshan, the imperial capital has become a mess, I don't know how many secret calls come and go to those dignitary buildings at the foot of Ziwei Mountain every day, and at the same time, some ministers advised Su Yayan, who was temporarily acting as regent, to return to the empire as soon as possible to convene a court meeting.

After all, if His Majesty intends to leave the court, it is not an overnight matter to find the emperor, and in this chaotic stage, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and such a huge amount of encrypted communication every day has seriously exceeded the load of the Imperial Intelligence Agency, and it is very easy for some people with ulterior motives to intercept information.

At this moment, the data flow on the large screen in the intelligence hall suddenly stagnated, and then it was poured into the river like a small water pipe.

An intelligence agency official who had been monitoring the Nanshan County City widened his bloodshot eyes because he stayed up late, and hissed and roared: "The abnormal signal of the new life has been found, and it is preliminarily determined to be a giant battleship!" Lock your bearings now! ”

The officials who dealt with intelligence in this hall changed color in unison, even if they all had strong nerves, their scalps were still tingling with the stimulation of this information.

Many people have a certain premonition in their hearts, this kind of large-scale signal flow, it is obvious that the other party's target is extremely large.

Some time ago, His Majesty was sniped by the War Apostles and Railguns, after all, although the incident was a bit big. But at least it can be confirmed that His Majesty's dragon body is safe, and they can still keep Xiang Shang's head.

But there were two major mistakes in Qin Jingxing, and there was actually a giant warship with an unknown owner in the hinterland, if this was a conspiracy of those vassal kings or rebels, everyone present could apologize for their crimes.

"The signal bearing has been confirmed! The coordinates are located in Nanling Yukong Mountain! ”

"Yukong Mountain? Could it be those thieves? How could they possibly get their hands on such a giant battleship? What exactly are they going to do at this time? ”

"Immediately notify the Defense Department of the Ministry of War to draw up an attack plan! And report to His Royal Highness the Regent! ”

At this moment, in the low-earth orbit outside the atmosphere of Qin Jingxing, the satellites on this side of the planet all aimed their cameras at this mountain.

However, what puzzled everyone was that under the panorama from the top of space, there was no shadow of any warship, but the monitoring data would not deceive.

Suddenly, someone thought about the rumors about the bottom of the mountains. It is said that the mountain range is rich in a special metal mineral, which causes the magnetic field to be chaotic and difficult to locate through the monitoring system, which is one of the reasons why the empire has been carrying out large-scale encirclement and suppression of those rebels in Yukong Mountain.

But at this moment, the data flow has changed, and people can't help but think, can the battleship still be underground.

As soon as this idea popped out of the minds of some officials, as if to verify their idea, a plain in the northwest direction of the main peak of the Yukong Mountain Range in Nanling suddenly sunken out of thin air, and there were towering trees and earthworks that could not stop falling into the sinkhole that suddenly appeared. It's as if there's an abyssal beast beneath it, feasting on everything.

When all the dust settled, an oval-shaped crater with a radius of more than ten kilometers completely occupied the original location of the basin, accompanied by a burst of fire in the darkness. A metal structure that looked like a mountain slowly rose from the sinkhole, and it looked a little dazzling in the light of the setting sun.

The overall shape of the battleship is streamlined, although some similarities can be found in the current ships of the Empire. But it is also the style of hundreds of years ago, and the body is full of ugly scars, but for some reason it gives people a sense of historical precipitation.

Everyone froze. It's not that the existing capabilities of such a huge warship empire can't be built, but that they are not suitable at all, and such a ship is more like a mobile city, a fortress for interstellar migration, than a battleship.

Even with the current production capacity of the Empire, to build such a huge warship, I am afraid that it may take the power of an entire industrial star to gather the power of an entire industrial star, and spend decades of rare metal production and alloy smelting capacity to make that possible.

It is rumored that there is a treasure buried under Yukong Mountain, and many people take it as a joke, but at the moment, no one laughs out, and I can't help but think that the so-called treasure refers to this battleship?

But at this moment, they don't have time to care about this, since the appearance of this warship is not even known to their Imperial Intelligence Agency, it has appeared in Qin Jingxing, which has already caused a great threat to the imperial power, especially at this sensitive critical moment, God knows that this is not the trick of those chaotic ministers and thieves.

"Signal contact fails, target remains silent."

Even though this warship of inexplicable origin was of immeasurable value, after receiving the news, the military department still proposed to Suya Yayan, who was temporarily the regent, to shoot down the target.

"Destroy it, at any cost!" These days, Su Yayan, who is temporarily acting as the king, was also a little angry by the frequent situation in secret, and immediately gave the order to attack.

In an instant, outside Nanshan County, the R4 surface-to-air missile, which was originally used to prevent the possible large-scale air power, dragged the white tail smoke and flew towards the mountains, in order to prevent accidents, the Space Administration also issued an attack order to the thirteen satellite railguns at the first time, and the muzzles began to appear dazzling light caused by the high energy convergence and compression, like bright stars in the sky.

Apocalypse II was also locked at the same moment by countless automatic turrets rising from the ground, and a bombardment like a storm was coming.

Even the Poplar rebels inside Yukong Mountain were boiling at this moment, looking at the giant battleship that suddenly appeared, and then thinking of Lord Roland who suddenly appeared some time ago and the Holy Mother who might still be inside Yukong Mountain, countless people showed a complex color of shock and apprehension, especially when they saw the missile group that rained down, that is, they were worried that the Holy Mother would leave them again, and they were worried about whether this battleship that looked huge as a mountain could survive safely.

"Are you really going to abandon me, Your Lady?" Hua Xuanhui, who ran alone outside the mountain road, looked at the giant ship suspended on the top of the mountain in the distance, and muttered with a pale face.

Everyone is waiting for the results of this group bombing. This was especially true of Su Yayan, who gave this order, but for some reason, looking at the direction where the battleship appeared, she thought of some people who made her feel unreciprocated, and suddenly had some inexplicable premonitions.

At this moment, a highest-priority e-mail suddenly popped up on the signal terminal in front of her, and Su Yayan's pupils shrank suddenly.

Because there is only one person in the entire empire who has this permission identification code, and that is the king of this country, her sister, Suye Mulan.

I saw that the anonymous letter had a simple sentence written on it. "Shi Chen is on the boat, let him go." After that, there was a coordinate signal, and although the purpose was not specified, Su Yemu Lan still knew that this was where the emperor was.

The return of the missing emperor should have been a happy thing, but after receiving this letter, Su Yayan's face turned slightly pale, and she looked at the huge battleship that was about to break through the sky, revealing a bitter and lonely smile.

In the face of the impending bombardment. In the control hall of the Apocalypse II bridge, Liya looked at this scene with an indifferent expression, only Shi Chen looked at the cloud-like missile group on the skyline, showing a slight nervousness.

However, just when the thousands of long-range missiles were about to hit the hull of the battleship, those missiles seemed to be drunk, and the originally straight trajectory suddenly became chaotic. Qi Qi passed by the ship's hull, but countless explosions rang out one after another, like a grand fireworks send-off, completely turning the clouds in the sky into real burning clouds.

Then the thirteen rays of light in the sky, which represented death and silence, also died out with someone's will. Just like her mood when someone said goodbye.

Just when the battleship had just poked a hole in the clouds of the sky, looking at the holographic picture under his feet, Yukong Mountain, which was becoming more and more distant, and Nanshan County, which was far away from the skyline, Shi Chen suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of emptiness.

It felt so familiar and yet strange. Originally, when he came to the empire, his original plan was to find Arsariya to ask everything clearly, and bring the irresponsible mother back to the Federation, but he didn't expect that something would happen when he first entered the empire, and he met Suya Yayan by accident.

If it weren't for the somewhat narcissistic and sometimes silly and somewhat cute woman, he would have been a dead man at that time, and then because of various unexpected things one after another, although he finally went around in a big circle, he finally achieved his initial goal, but when he left this mysterious country, he was forever engraved with the figure of that woman in his heart.

Sensing Shi Chen's abnormality, Liya, who was entering the spaceship program, raised her eyes slightly, "Since you are reluctant, let's be separate with humanity, and by the way, help me send an email to Yukong Mountain, and I have already entered the two signal identification codes into the system." ”

Shi Chen suddenly glanced at Liya gratefully, and then sent a concise farewell letter to Su Yayan with the signal identification code of the Imperial Imperial Communication, "I have something to go back to the Federation, and I will come again." ”

Just as the spaceship rushed out of the atmosphere and was about to carry out interstellar acceleration, Shi Chen finally got a response in a burst of inexplicable irritability, it was a smiling face composed of symbols, and the words were even simpler, "Waiting for you." ”

With a low roar of the spaceship, looking at the gradually distant planet, Shi Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After two years, he finally completed this interstellar journey, and walked away in a grand fireworks gift, just as he had crossed thousands of missiles, waving his sleeves and making a cloud of farewell to the imperial Qinjing.
