……

A huge fleet arrived at the Gates of Kadian in batches.

As the former forefront of anti-chaos, and now the rear of anti-chaos, the fortress world of Kadia is no longer full of war.

But it still works.

The Cadia, the Shock Force, are still active on all fronts of the Empire, even if the vast majority of them never return home after leaving their home planet for the rest of their lives.

And now, in the orbit of the sixth star in the galaxy where Kadia is located, there is a large starport in the location of the prison world that was originally blown up by the celestial engine.

Although this starport can't use the fleet as a base point of action like the next stop, the Belliskrona system, there is no problem in allowing the fleet to dock temporarily.

What's more, Kiliman is here to let the mortal army join the expeditionary force.

In the Kadia Starport, the assault force is being sent to the Golden Expeditionary Fleet by transport planes.

The commander-in-chief of the entire assault army commanded the transfer here.

"The castle lord's guards will go to the Glorious Human first, and according to etiquette, we should meet with the Imperial Regent."

"Colonel Karl, just focus on this."

"Yes, Castle Master!"

Between words, the Lord of Tyrone, accompanied by the Praetorian guards, went to the busiest part of Starport.

The sweaty soldiers almost filled the tarmac.

There was a mess of supplies and dust everywhere.

Qin Mo stopped.

Because he saw the person he wanted to see.

Lord of the Supreme Fort of Kadia, war hero - Ussaka E. Creed.

Creed puffed out the smoke ring as he commanded, and the cigar was sandwiched between his index and middle fingers, occasionally soaking into his mouth.

Creed sensed something and turned his head to look at Qin Mo, but his gaze only swept over Qin Mo.

"The rest of the matter is very simple, board the ship, and the Eighth Regiment will wait for me to go to the battleship and then go to meet the regent and the commander."

After Creed finished ordering the last thing, he turned around and walked towards Qin Mo: "Governor Tyrone, I have some logistics matters that I need to discuss with you. ”

……

A moment later.

Starport Cargo Centre.

Qin Mo and Creed stood at the edge railing of a wide platform, climbing on the lever and looking at the giant freight lines that staggered in the distance.

"I haven't seen you in decades." Qin Mo's gaze fell on Creed, "Seeing you, I once again felt the passage of time. ”

Today, Creed has gray hair and a slightly rickety body.

But his facial lines are still very tough, his eyes are like torches, his temperament is awe-inspiring, and his body is strong.

The neck is still so short.

To be honest, Creed's appearance is not very old, far from what a nearly a hundred years old should be, after all, the empire has life extension technology, and Creed can afford to use it.

But seeing today's Creed, Qin Mo couldn't help but feel a sense of heroic twilight.

"You're still in your twenties." Creed took a hard sip of his cigar as he spoke, "If I were like you, I would be able to fight for the throne forever." ”

"Smoke more, it's good for your body." Qin Mo patted Creed's shoulder, "If you want to live forever, go to Taiweiyi, there is technology that can help you." ”

Hearing that he could live forever, Creed reacted coldly: "I should have died a long time ago." ”

Qin Mo was silent.

Creed clicked a full cigar, then dropped his hand and touched his waist, pulling out a cigar out of thin air.

It was the cigar belt that Qin Mo had given Creed, and since then Creed has had an unlimited supply of cigars.

Even this cigar can heal wounds and prolong life.

Thinking of the cigar, Creed leaned on the railing and exhaled a puff of cigarette with a solemn face.

"In the immediate aftermath of the Battle of Cadia, I was hunted down by the Assassins."

"Two Kalidus assassins."

"I suspect that the upper echelons of the empire and the high lords were dissatisfied with me at that time, but this has not happened since the return of the regent."

Creed looked at Qin Mo and raised his eyebrows and took a deep breath.

The Lord of the Supreme Citadel spoke again, his calm voice piercing through the smoke.

"When you left, you said that this cigar belt would conjure up a cigar god to save me if I was in danger."

"Shet! It's true! ”

"When I was cornered by the two Calidus assassins, and I asked for one last slash, the belt 'drawn' an iron man out of thin air!"

"Are you specifically spoofing me? It turned out to be a cigar! Looks like a cigar man with tobacco-like hands and feet! ”

"I watched as a cigar tore two assassins to shreds."

Creed said with a mixed expression.

"The cigar even came up to me covered in blood, handed me a cigar and lit it before returning to his belt!"

Speaking of this, the face of the Lord of the Supreme Castle was full of helplessness.

He was saved by a cigar.

When he told his lieutenant, Carl, about it, he didn't believe that the Empire would send assassins to kill him, or that a cigar could save his life.

"You don't think I'm really just going to give you simple gifts to turn into cigars, do you?" Qin Mo smiled, "It seems that your command skills are good, there are no enemies on the battlefield who can kill in front of you, otherwise the belt will print a large number of cigar men to beat your enemies." ”

Hearing this, Creed couldn't help but laugh twice.

He would have been very surprised if Carl had been there, as it was the first time in his life that he had seen Creed laugh.

Both were silent again.

Creed was serious again.

In fact, he is in a very relaxed mood now, but he was born with a stinky face.

"Thank you."

"What?"

"Thank you. Thank you for the Kadia, you have shrunk the eyes of fear, and fifty percent of newborns' eyes are not even purple anymore. ”

"Thank you for the victims, after all, I was not the only one who repelled the enemy."

Qin Mo recalled Nayi the Stormtrooper.

When he first entered the subspace, Qin Mo saw Nayi in the soul of the Tyrone Army, who charged with that Kadia soldier on his back and bombed the demon suicidally.

They are the epitome of all the soldiers in that battle of Cadia.

There is still a custom of mourning the victims in the Star Sector, but there are so many names that they need to be recited in different divisions, but they are still mourning.

Qin Mo will also turn off all the equipment and let everyone leave after releasing his speech through various channels on the sacrifice memorial day, and he will be alone to recall the sacrifices he has seen.

When I think of the shout "I don't wear a helmet because I don't want the Legion Commander to lose sight of my face!" "A member of the Scarlet Cockscomb Head Gang.

Remembering the still excited look on the face of the man who had grown from a gang member to a qualified Tyrone Army soldier in subspace when he met the Legion Commander he admired.

Qin Mo would shed tears.

"Can you promise me one thing?" The Lord of the Supreme Castle said suddenly.

Just like the historic moment when Creed and Qin Mo made an agreement on the roof of the city of Nova Cato and looked at the procession below to bury the dead, he wanted to conclude an agreement again.

"Turn off the Eye of Fear." "This war may be going on for centuries, and I may not live long enough to last until the end of the war...... But turn it off. ”

"Anyway."

"Sew it up on this subspace excretion that has brought to the Cadians, to my brothers and sisters for countless generations, and countless generations."

Just like decades ago, Qin Mo said: Tyrone will respond.

Qin Mo agreed without hesitation.

The Lord of Tyrone patted Creed on the shoulder and turned to leave.

"Not only will I sew it on, I'll make you watch it sewn."

"Now we're going to do it."
