Chapter 314 Bought a satellite... ?
In his previous life, Asaiah led the Galactic Expeditionary Force to a distant star. The fleet stopped at the Magic Eye Fortress, a space fortress closest to a distant star in the Federation Galaxy, for the final pre-war assembly.
From the giant, brilliant circular jump gate, groups of warships of all sizes, with gleaming lights, kept coming out slowly. They were the expeditionary fleets stationed in various star systems of the Federation, coming to join the forces under the orders of the commander-in-chief.
Under the hanging ladder, Asaiah, dressed in a neat white commander's uniform, patted Lone's arm and said gently, "Go back, and remember the mission I gave you."
Qiong's whole body was tense, his back was stiff, and his thin lips were pursed into a straight line.
He held the ring of law and discipline tightly in his palm, and the dagger-shaped Holy Spirit Blade was inserted in the holster at his waist.
Before setting off from the main star, Asaiah entrusted him with the Holy Spirit Blade and the Law Ring, and told him that if he could not come back from the distant star, he would take over the position of commander-in-chief of the Galactic Expeditionary Force.
However, he didn't want to be a commander at all! He just wanted to be by Aasia's side, to fight for her, and to share life and death with her.
Even though every cell in his body was screaming to refuse, he could not openly disobey Asayah's orders.
"I--" He couldn't help but opened his mouth to try one last time, and saw Asaiah looking at the warp gate in the distance and said softly.
"he came."
In the boundless starry sky, a huge black beast-shaped mecha with runes all over its body passed through the warp gate and rushed towards the Demon's Eye Fortress.
Asaiah's eyes curved slightly, and after a while, her gaze fell back on Qiong, leaving him with a brilliant smile, and finally said: "Go back quickly, take care."
Then, he strode towards the mecha landing pad without looking back.
The expeditionary generals who had been accompanying not far away, passed by Qiong, patted his shoulders vigorously as a farewell, and then followed Asaiah's steps and walked away.
Jing Luo was the last one to speak. A mischievous smile flashed across his deep green eyes: "Brother, the judgment is coming."
Qiong looked back at him coldly: "So what?"
Jing smiled and said, "It's nothing. I'm just happy to see the Marshal happy. After all, it takes a long time for them to see each other, right?"
Qiong took a deep breath without saying anything. Jing looked at the giant black mecha that landed on the landing pad and said with a smile, "Because of Judgment's ability to read minds, the parliament has passed a law that strictly prohibits him from entering any inhabited planet in the Federation system, let alone the main planet where that group of old guys in the association - you know, those with ulterior motives - live."
"Judgment can only lead a fleet of the expeditionary force to cruise in the endless sea of stars at the border of the Federation galaxy."
"The marshal is very busy with military affairs, so it is difficult for him to leave the main planet to see him. Basically, they can only see him briefly during military exercises or when the marshal reviews the three armies. In fact, even such opportunities are very rare."
"What do you want to say?"
Jing shrugged and said in his usual playful and intimate voice: "Even so, no one can shake the position of Judgment in the Marshal's heart, even though he has been exiled by the Parliament for many years, far away from the center of power, and even unable to meet with the Marshal for several years——"
"The Marshal has always retained his position as a Knight of Divine Revelation."
Jing paused, leaned close to Qiong's ear, and whispered, "Unlike my brother, who has been by the Marshal's side for many years, but can't even keep his position as a Knight of Divine Revelation~"
He sighed with regret: "But, brother, you don't have to be sad. I will take your place and protect the marshal well. You can leave the position of the Knight of Divine Revelation to me with peace of mind~"
Qiong's mind was buzzing, and he didn't even know when Jing left.
When he mechanically boarded the ship and prepared to leave the Demon's Eye Fortress, he saw from the porthole that Asaiah and Judgment were walking side by side on the bridge. There was a hint of focused and soft smile in Judgment's eyes, which were always as cold as an iceberg.
That was the last time that Qiong saw them. All those who said goodbye to him at the Demon's Eye Fortress that day never came back.
------------
Jing walked out of the kitchen carrying the clean dishes.
He saw Ai Wanxin and Yin Yanhan quietly leaning against the window, then he saw Qiong with his eyes closed.
Jing Jian raised his eyebrows and shook his head.
If you don't fight for this favor, of course it won't fall on you.
He placed the dishes in his hands on the table, making a crisp "click" sound, which broke the strange silence in the room.
Jing asked obediently: "Sister, when are we leaving?"
Ai Wanxin stood up straight, turned around and said energetically: "Let's go now, but before we go to steal the meteorite, you accompany me to get something else first."
Jing's smile was brighter than a sunflower: "No problem, sister. You can go wherever you want. I will always be with you~"
Pei Junlin also came out of the kitchen. He asked curiously, "Baby, what are you going to get? I can go with you."
The shadow passage suddenly opened up behind Jing. He extended his hand to Ai Wanxin and said with a smile, "You are not familiar with the Academy of Sciences. I'd better accompany my sister there~"
Jing had followed her to the underground laboratory before, and since he could be invisible, it was indeed more convenient. Ai Wanxin smiled and said, "Jing can just accompany me, you don't have to wait for me."
She walked towards Jing. Before stepping into the shadow passage, she turned to Yin Yanhan who had been watching her and said, "Brother Han, I plan to offer a reward to the management of Blue Fox in the black market. Please help me arrange it."
Yin Yanhan nodded, Pei Junlin stepped forward and handed her a bracelet-shaped terminal: "Baby, I bought a satellite these two days, and I can contact you through the bracelet at any time in the future. I know you don't want to use military communications, which are easy to be monitored and unsafe."
Ai Wanxin blinked and said blankly: "Bought a satellite...?"
Pei Junlin replaced the bracelet for her, kissed her on the cheek again, and chuckled, "There is nothing you can't buy on the black market now."
Jing smiled and snatched Ai Wanxin's hand from Pei Junlin without leaving a trace, and decided to find something for these annoying guys to do.
"If you have so much free time, why not take a look at this." He slapped a small storage film on Pei Junlin's chest. Inside was the only backup of Pang Kun's post on the BBS that spread rumors about Ai Wanxin. At the end, he left a firm "Goodbye" and pulled Ai Wanxin into the shadow channel.
The black passage closed like a curtain, and the two people suddenly disappeared from the spot.
