Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Violent rays of light kept appearing in the dark universe. In the floating objects gathering area in front of us, most of the floating stones on the periphery were already pierced with holes. A large number of Star Force shuttle fighters were attacking inward little by little. They Encountered fierce resistance.

Basically, there is not much suspense in the battle. It is only a matter of time before the clone front is annihilated. Shuttle fighters continue to destroy some facilities hidden in the rocks. Although the resistance encountered is fierce, such an overwhelming battle is not possible. any variable.

Nigel quietly watched the messages that were constantly being transmitted, with a glass of wine in his hand. Although there was no evidence yet that the clone front had invaded the moon, Nigel felt a little uneasy.

Because if the clone front cannot be completely eliminated in the universe, this problem will evolve into a more complex problem in the future. War requires funds, and if a large-scale war occurs on the moon, it will be the empire. Many people here don’t want to see it.

The population of the lunar base is nearly 2 million. If there is a war, the resource consumption of the entire society will be very huge, so the best way is to let these clones fend for themselves.

And if these clones continue to stir up trouble while they are fending for themselves, it will be very uncomfortable for the entire empire, Nigel stood up and said.

"Get me First Army General Nikolai immediately."

Soon the video communication started, Nikolay said with a smile.

"You are already finishing the work."

Nigel and the others did not tell the people of the empire what they discovered in this floating cluster, but now they have to explain that all the protection work on the moon is undertaken by the First Army. Now it is necessary to explain the problem to Nikolai.

"No, Nikolai, I think it is necessary to tell you that the problem has changed now."

The smile on Nicholas's face froze, and he asked with a serious expression.

"What happened General Nigel."

Nigel thought for a moment and then gave a brief explanation of the battle situation.

"That is to say, the four captured space stations did not move towards the cluster of floating objects. Have you not found them yet?"

Nigel nodded, and Nicholas said angrily.

"It seems that I need to ask General Hert what's going on."

"Asking is in vain, because he is no longer the boss. After the clones knew about his betrayal, they responded quickly. Now they may have landed on the moon, so I hope General Nikolai You can send out a reconnaissance team to conduct reconnaissance on the moon."

Nigel looked at Nicholas's expression, and then said with a smile.

"Don't tell Her Majesty the Queen about this for now. After our battle is over, go and explain it to the Queen in person. After all, Her Majesty the Queen really wants to hear General Hert's opinion."

Nikolai nodded. After the communication ended, Nigel laughed. There were some things that Hert had to solve by himself. After all, this matter was very important to everyone.

The situation within the empire is already very serious now. The internal friction of several major capital groups is very serious, and the same is true for the group armies representing the major capitals.

If this matter is not resolved well, it is likely to turn into a coup. The situation within the empire no longer allows any more problems to arise. This is why the Queen does not intend to deal with Helt.

Including some forces behind Helt are also ready to move. The entire empire is already on the road to internal war. Fortunately, now we have the established goal of Brilliant City. As long as we can successfully negotiate with Brilliant City by the end of this year, the two countries can conduct trade. If so, these internal conflicts can be completely resolved.

However, Nigel felt that this was an opportunity. He planned to have a good talk with Hert later. There was no need to deliberately deal with the clones that landed on the lunar base. Instead, he could use them to destroy the empire's current The conflict is temporarily under control.

The battle in front of us is almost coming to an end. The Second Army has broken into the center from both sides. The army has entered some clone facilities and found that many clones have died or have symptoms of muscle weakness. , a lingering resistance, but such resistance cannot make any waves.

After minutes and seconds passed, the battle was finally over. Looking at the floating objects gathering place that was already riddled with holes, this place could no longer be used as a hidden base. The larger rocks had been shattered. , only some small floating objects are left.

Nigel stood up and drove a small shuttle directly towards the Third Army.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Nigel stepped into the captain's room where Hult was.

"Just say it Nigel."

Helt was the only one in the captain's room. When he knew that Nigel was coming, he asked the others to leave. There was wine and some simple potato snacks in the room.

"I don't think there is any need to deal with the remaining clone fronts. They will die anyway if we leave them alone."

Hurt looked at Nigel in surprise. He didn't understand what Nigel meant.

"I have already planned to send people directly to the area near the previously captured space station to search for some energy-moving protons. If they are found, we can determine where they have gone."

"Take all the people back to Hert. I know you really want to cut off all ties between these guys and you."

As soon as Nigel finished speaking, Hert's expression became a little complicated. Nigel picked up a glass of wine and drank with Hert, and then said with a smile.

"You don't have to worry about anything. Although Her Majesty the Queen knows what you have done, she will not hold you accountable. I think you know much better than me about what is going on in the empire now. The Fourth and Fifth Army Groups are all watching. Stare at the throne.”

"Nigel, I think it's better that we don't discuss this issue, after all."

Nigel put down his wine glass, poured a glass and said.

"I have already explained to Nicholas that we will meet with the Queen in person in a few minutes. I think it is better to explain some things in person rather than hiding them. The Queen is relatively clear about everything you have done over the years. Do you understand what I mean?"

Hurt nodded after thinking for a moment.

"I see."

Nigel hummed and said.

"I have known you are an idealist since you were a child. You really want to change the current status quo, but what you are doing is wrong, Hult. It is impossible to place your hopes on clones who only have less than 3 years of life. There's nothing they can do, so I think you should think carefully about what you're going to say to the Queen when we see her later."

Hert didn't quite understand what Nigel meant. The fleets of both legions were now starting to return, and they would land at the lunar base in an hour or two.

"Then what do you think I should say to the Queen?"

Nigel laughed, stretched out his hand and pressed Helt's chest.

"Your sincerity, whatever you want to say is fine. The Queen is not an unsophisticated guy. She will listen carefully to what you have to say."

Hert was a little shocked, and then Nigel continued to talk about the current conflicts within the empire, which were mainly caused by the founders, because the queen is already over 50 and has not yet chosen an heir. This is very important for the entire empire. This is unacceptable to the empire.

And if the queen is unable to choose an heir, the heir will automatically be born from the families of the founders who are related to the queen. They represent everything in the empire.

And these forces are competing on the stage and privately. After all, everyone wants to sit on this throne, so the situation is becoming increasingly chaotic.

When Hert listened to what Nigel said, he naturally knew very well how such internal conflicts came about. He had wanted to change everything after taking power through a coup, although Hert's family and the queen were not related by blood. , but they are the people who created this country in the past.

"Think about it carefully, Hult. This matter is very important to our entire empire. Arrange a place for me and I will go and take a nap."

Hurt nodded, and then asked Feiya to take Nigel away. At this moment, Hurt was conflicted in his heart. He didn't know whether the Queen would really pardon him for everything he had done, as Nigel said.

Hert just wanted to clean up the clone front as quickly as possible and erase all traces of the past, but it was obviously impossible now. Since Nigel and General Nikolai of the First Army had said this, Then that shrewd guy Nikolai will naturally think of this method, and they will not take the initiative to deal with clones.

The First Army is the army that maintains and protects the order of the entire moon. The other armies do not have any authority to land on the moon, so the opportunity to lead the army to deal with the clone front no longer exists.

At this time, a call came through, it was Maggie, and Hert connected the communication.

"How's it going Hult?"

"Part of it has been solved Maggie."

Maggie said with a playful smile.

"I'll wait for you to come back Helt. I made something delicious today."

"Maggie, I'm going to the lunar base later."

Maggie said with a smile and her face close to the screen.

"Can I come with you? I haven't been back for a long time."

Helt nodded, and he talked a lot with Maggie. Because of this lively and cheerful girl, Helt had been very happy to come here in the past few years.

"I'll wait for you at the lunar base."

After the call ended, Hert fell into deep thought. He knew better than anyone what it was like to face Katerina. Even Maggie, who had just spoken to Hert, was also Katerina's person. .

Helt has known this for a long time, but he has fallen in love with this girl. Now that things have reached this point, Helt can only talk to Katerina seriously.

A lot of things have happened in the empire over the years, but Katerina has solved many problems with her own hands. She is a very powerful woman, and Hert has known this for a long time.

Hurt knew the contradictions within the empire, so he planned a coup so boldly, because he knew very well that Katerina did not dare to take action, and if she did, the entire empire would collapse.

But the situation was different now. Helt stood up and looked at the moon with a faint white light not far away. He smiled. The entire fleet began to return, and the space station where the fleet was located also slowly opened.

"That's all."

11:30pm

The situation at Space Station 69 has basically stabilized. The space station has begun to move, bypassing the established orbit, and intends to land on the moon. However, there has basically been no change so far, and the empire has not sent troops. This fact makes Stukov was reassured.

Now Stukov is too tired and has discussed many things with the original managers. Up to now, the entire space station is still undergoing various aspects of rest and improvement.

It won't take long for them to reach the outer reaches of the moon. The current orbit has completely bypassed the sphere of influence of the four armies. By 3 o'clock in the morning, they should be able to reach the established orbit and then land on the moon. Afterwards, they will be with The remaining members of the clone front discussed the follow-up battle plan.

"Go and rest Stukov."

Yuna said, Stukov hummed, and he asked.

"Where's Hurt?"

"He went back home to rest."

Stukov smiled happily.

Near 1 o'clock

Helt woke up from his deep sleep. He felt sore all over, especially since he could hardly lift his hands. After getting up, Helt immediately drank some water and ate something. After a while, Helt woke up. I glanced at the sky outside the window and could already see the moon.

As soon as Helt went out, he saw the residents of Space Station 69 who were busy. It seemed that the situation had been completely stabilized. Now no one doubted that he was a clone. After going out, Helt greeted some familiar people. , and then went directly to the central control tower.

Helt can't do heavy physical work now. He can only do some light labor work. Because his physical condition is very bad, he wants to go to the central control tower to see if there is anything he can do to help.

As soon as he entered, he saw some of his mechanical maintenance engineer friends from before. He greeted them and went over to ask if there was anything they could do to help, but no one allowed him to participate. Instead, they told him to go upstairs.

Helt went all the way to the central control tower where equipment changes were being made upstairs. As soon as he entered, he saw Yuna.

"Don't you want to rest?"

"I've been sleeping for a while, have you eaten anything?"

Helt nodded. He was very grateful to this girl because her sudden arrival made him decide everything.

"How about we go for a walk?"

Yuna suddenly spoke, and Hert nodded after thinking for a while, and followed Yuna out of the control tower. At this time, not far away, Stukov hurried over.
