Chi Zhao always feels that something is getting out of his control, and something is getting worse around him.
What's wrong: He hasn't seen Mrs. Shao for a long time. Mrs. Shao, who had to see him once a week, is still eating, drinking, and having fun in tourist resorts. It seems that he has forgotten that he still has a home to stay with the main star.
What's wrong: Lewis suddenly became very busy. He was away from home almost every day and only came back when he went to bed at night. Even at home occasionally, still stay in the study and never go out. If the average office worker is so busy, Chi Zhao can barely understand it, but Lewis is the general. The only thing that keeps him busy is war, and war does not happen in the study.
Sometimes Chi Zhao is thinking, maybe he is hiding from himself.
Guessed the same. But Lewis was not trying to avoid him, he just wanted to create more opportunities for Chi Zhao to be alone so that he could live a little more comfortably, and by the way, he could also learn what kind of tasks Morris had given him.
Finally, the third place is wrong: this is also the most wrong point. In the last month, Chi Zhao obviously felt that stealing information is much easier than before. In the past, he needed to work hard to find information and avoid other people. It doesn't need to be anymore, he can get information just by just taking a look. Moreover, Lewis didn't know when he started to have the habit of taking military documents home. In this way, Chi Zhao didn't even need to go to the military department, but suffered the adjutant.
After not going to the military headquarters, there are not many lower-level officers that Chi Zhao can reach. If he wants to do tricks, he can only do it through his adjutant.
The adjutant's surface was light and breezy, and his face was in tears every day.
As one of Lewis's most trusted subordinates, of course the adjutant already knew that his wife had been held hostage by the rebels, and at the same time he knew that the stupid things he did unconsciously in the past were caused by his amazing wife. The adjutant was very moved. For the sake of the empire, Madam could make so many sacrifices. What would it be for him to sacrifice a little bit of face.
Therefore, during the recent period of time, he ran to Lewis's house and brushed his sense of existence in order to provide Shao Zean with a chance to shake the pot.
Chi Zhao was very vigilant at first, because he was afraid that the adjutant would notice the abnormality of his body. But who knows, the adjutant is really so stupid. He has used it several times and has not found it. He even found a reason for himself, saying that he has some rare disease. The symptoms of this disease are that they often have some symptoms. Something unreasonable.
When Chi Zhao heard it, he was immediately happy.
Very good, but you asked for it.
The current adjutant has become a stupid professional, and the military wants to fire him.
...
Today Lewis went to work. Chi Zhao didn't start school very long. There were not many courses in the academy. He came back earlier. He thought about these things that were wrong, and he seemed to be worried. As usual, Morris' voice rang, and this time he was asked to steal information. Chi Zhao listened boredly, and suddenly, an unfamiliar, magnetic voice came in.
Chi Zhao frowned and couldn't help asking: "Who is that?"
The sound in my ears stopped, and after a few seconds, the strange voice sounded again. He sounded very majestic, "Good day, son of the Shao family. I am Alorin."
Chi Zhao was quite surprised, this is the super villain! He couldn't help but confirm, "You are Alorin?!"
At the same time, Lewis stood up abruptly, and the drink that the adjutant had just brought over was immediately knocked over to the ground. The adjutant was startled, "Admiral, what's the matter?"
Lewis looked at the adjutant, with an unnoticeable shock in his eyes, "Morris and Alorin are in the same place."
In one place...what's so surprising about this? They are both rebels and management, and they are in the same place. Isn't it normal?
Lewis didn't want to explain too much to the adjutant. The dean has said that although the monitor is small, the machine that controls it is huge, and it is almost impossible to carry it with you. Therefore, Morris must stay in the same place while monitoring Shao Zean these days. Over. He is just a scientist, and Alorin is the leader of the rebels. In other words, it is impossible for Alorin to condescend to find Morris. It is very likely that they both stay in the same place. That place is Alorin. Base camp.
All the above are speculations. No one can say what the real situation is, but it is better to have a clue than nothing.
Many generals sat together for a temporary military meeting. Most of the people here were Lewis's cronies. Lewis told everyone the information he had just received. They looked at each other for a long time and didn't know where to start.
Meetings between soldiers are like fights. Talking about them, they will always quarrel. After they quarrel, they will have to force each other. Although Lewis is present, no one dares to fight.
Lewis heard them quarrel, his face gradually darkened.
When is it all, there is still time for meaningless arguments.
Sitting in the third position on the right hand side of Lewis is a young officer who has just joined in. He looks a little uncomfortable. He always keeps his head down. When others call him, he has always been indifferent, giving people a kind of him. Very arrogant and uncomfortable feeling.
The young officer thought for a while, and then slowly looked at Lewis, "Admiral, did you cause Scarlett's mental riot last time?"
As soon as this word came out, the quarrel in the room was immediately silenced. Some people at the scene knew that Lewis did it, some didn't, but whether they knew it or not, they all stared at the young officer, the newly promoted officer this year. There are a total of two assigned to Lewis's command, one treats people like a spring breeze, and the other will take the dead fish eye to leave others, this is naturally the dead fish eye.
For a while, everyone's hearts were still a bit complicated. It turned out that the dead fish eye is not just not giving face to himself, he doesn't even give Lewis the face, so he treats him equally.
...
Blind fisheye is called Ciel, he is a researcher of tactical information of the imperial government. Don't think he is just a researcher, but his rank is equivalent to a major general, and his position can be ranked in the top five in the entire conference room. Lewis looked at him for a while, then gave a quiet hmm.
Ciel listened and was about to say something, but his arm was suddenly torn. Ciel turned his head and looked over. Sitting next to him was another new officer, Major Jiang Shupei. The military rank difference between the two is three ranks, but the relationship between the two is unexpectedly good.
Jiang Shupei wanted to remind Ciel, don't say anything rude, the province makes Admiral West upset. Ciel glanced at him slowly, then turned his head back, and said nonchalantly, "Ah, as I expected. I was also in Scarlett at the time, collecting geological information needed by the military, as a personal experience. I thought at the time that you should have caused this riot."
Others: "..." Okay, I know you have a keen sense of observation, but can you stop talking nonsense? Doesn't he look at the admiral's face already very ugly? He has to be patient and exhausted!
Fortunately, before Lewis' patience was exhausted, Ciel still touched on the point, "Before the mental power riot, I did not find Scarlett's abnormalities, but after the mental power riot, I found that the collected data appeared unreasonable. Fluctuations."
As he said, Ciel gestured to a height, "I won't tell you the details, you don't understand. For example, if the distance between the center of the earth and the surface is this far, then there should be a position below the surface. other things."
Everyone stared blankly at the distance Ciel gestured. They thought for a moment, and their eyes widened in an instant, so deep? ! Sleeping behemoth? ? ?
Ciel knew what they were thinking as soon as they looked at their faces. "It can't be a creature, because this thing is too big. Depending on the scale, it looks a bit like an underground building or an inverted triangle."
Edmond was also in the conference room. He scratched his head and asked puzzledly: "Then why didn't you say it earlier?"
This is a special case and must be taken seriously.
Ciel shrugged, "I don't know what this is, in case your majesty built it yourself, if I leak your majesty's little secret, I won't be sent to the Death Galaxy."
other people:"..."
Didn't you also miss it now...
Lewis pondered for a moment before he made a decision. He asked Ciel to take someone to the test again, and by the way Edmond again. The latter has high mental power. If something underground can only be detected when a huge mental wave occurs, let Edmond go on it.
When we got home, it was already dark. Lewis sat in the suspended car, seeming to be thinking about something. The adjutant didn't dare to disturb him, so he sat quietly in the driving position, even though the car was self-driving.
After a long time, the adjutant heard a question from behind him: "...Does Alorin know Princess Scarlett?"
The adjutant thought carefully, "It should be. Alorin is a classmate of His Majesty. She met when she was young. As the sister of His Majesty, the princess should also have contact with Alorin."
Lewis thoughtfully, "I remember that what really made Alorin a household name was the Seven Days of Vengeance. He smashed the Stricker Federation in seven days. After that, the Stricker Federation was merged into the Empire. From then on, the Empire The strength has greatly increased, and our Majesty has been praised for it."
The adjutant blinked, and he turned his head. "Admiral, what are you trying to say?"
This was all decades ago, and even the adjutant was not born when the seven-day revenge battle took place. They haven't experienced it, so they don't know why the old man gets excited when he mentions the war. Some people like Mrs. Shao, because they are too excited, even gave their children a name similar to the main general Alorin.
Lewis shook his head. "It's nothing, I just remembered these things suddenly."
Not only did Lewis think of these things, Chi Zhao couldn't help but searched for Alorin on the star network after hearing Alorin's voice today. Then, he also saw the famous Seven-Day Revenge Battle.
Chi Zhao read the ten lines at a glance. Everything else was the same as Lewis said. Alorin was extremely brave. He completely defeated the regime of that country in only seven days. It did not even cause civilian casualties, without the support of the regime and the army. The remaining civilians didn't know what to do even if they wanted revenge.
Alorin killed the Confederate leader, captured several high-ranking confederates, and then threw a bunch of mess away. After he left, the emperor sent a few generals and easily suppressed the civilian resistance. After that, the empire was annexed smoothly. Stricker Federation.
The reason for the outbreak of such a war is Princess Scarlett.
Princess Scarlett went to Stricker Federation to play. She concealed her identity, but she was still recognized by the Federation. There have always been frictions between the two countries. The Federation people murdered the princess cruelly with a grudge, and the news passed back. In the empire, the emperor was furious, and this triggered a series of things.
Chi Zhao looked at Xingwang silently, and he looked for the system for comfort in fear, "System, why do I think this thing is a bit scary."
[Actually, I think so too...]
When the princess died, the two countries fought each other. They were obviously two countries that refused to accept and no one could beat the other. But Alorin only took seven days to crush the other party's regime, even if they were abnormal because of the death of the princess. Anger, isn't it that everyone bursts into the Hulk?
Moreover, this princess died too...it's a coincidence. If it is from a national perspective without any personal feelings and compassion, Chi Zhao will even feel that Princess Scarlett's death is truly worthwhile. , Her death has brought so much benefit to the empire.
Chi Zhao and the system are both in a complicated mood. They are both outsiders, they have no feelings for the empire, and they have not been educated by the empire. They simply stand from the perspective of outsiders, so they soon doubt the authenticity of this matter. . In fact, the people of the empire were not doubtful, but such remarks have been suppressed. Moreover, compared with a dead princess, people value the low-handed interests more, so until now, there has been no storm.
In the evening, Lewis came back. Chi Zhao sat on the bed and watched him walking around, changing his clothes and washing up. Lewis lay down on the bed, but instead of lying down immediately, he was lying halfway. Looking at Chi Zhao, "Anything you want to tell me?"
Chi Zhao was silent for a while and nodded.
Lewis hadn't seen him so tangled before, he couldn't help but smile, "Go ahead, what?"
Chi Zhao opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to ask the sentence he had been thinking about for a long time, "I want to know what your allegiance is."
"Is it the emperor, or..."
Lewis was startled, and after a second, he shook his head slowly, "It's the Empire."
Chi Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. Before, he knew that the emperor of this world was not a good person, otherwise he would not be overthrown by his brother in the end, but today Chi Zhao discovered that this emperor is not only not a good person, but also very likely to be a super big man. Bad guy, he didn't want Lewis to be his loyalty object, or how sad he would be when he finally discovered the truth.
Upon hearing this, the unwilling system spoke again.
[That, host, I think compared with the emperor...]
Chi Zhao darkened his face: "I know, I know, no matter who I am compared with, I am the one who makes Lewis the most sad. Do you need to remind me every time?"
system:"..."
If you are conscious enough, do I need to remind you every day! Spicy chicken host!
...
Although I don't know why Shao Zean suddenly asked him this question, Lewis answered it truthfully. After answering, he looked at the obedient boy with his eyelids, "What about you?"
Chi Zhao raised his head and reacted for a few seconds before trying to understand what Lewis was asking. He paused and lay back under the covers, closing his eyes, and replied untruely: "I am not a soldier, not so. High sense of responsibility. If I have to answer... then my allegiance is life."
In a word, it means three things in the ears of others.
In Morris' ears, he thought that Chi Zhao was talking about his own life, so he chose treason.
In Lewis' ears, he thought that Chi Zhao was talking about the lives of the people of the empire. After all, he had done this all the time, taking immeasurable risks and protecting the lives of people and soldiers.
Only the system, only it really understands Chi Zhao and understands the meaning of Chi Zhao.
His allegiance and respect are all lives, whether it is his or someone else's.
Because he died, he knows how cold and helpless death is. Even if he can't save others, he is determined not to harm others. This is the principle engraved in the soul that he has allegiance and persistence.
