"Be careful--!!!"

Li Jinshen stood up abruptly, holding the obsidian ring firmly with one hand, as if trying to crush it with such force.

The communication between him and Ye Zhibo had been interrupted, but an extremely strong consciousness suddenly emerged in the spiritual sea, and another person's voice came indistinctly.

"Get out of there!"

——It's Ye Zhibo!

It was the connection between them, somehow, Ye Zhibo's consciousness was conveyed to his own spiritual world!

Li Jin frowned tightly, unconsciously rubbing the ring between his fingers.

Ye Zhibo...

He forced himself to calm down from the sudden surge of fear.

Their communication was suddenly interrupted, and the voice from the other end before the interruption...

Sirens, buzzing, suppressed low coughs, and heavy wheezing...

Something happened to Ye Zhibo.

Who is he talking to?

Is it yourself?

The fear and warning revealed in that consciousness was too strong, making Li Jinshen a little uncertain for a while.

The connection between the two is still stable, and he can feel that Ye Zhibo's spiritual sea is fluctuating violently, but his vital signs no longer drop rapidly, but stabilize after falling to a certain point.

Ye Zhibo suffered serious injuries, but his life is not in danger.

This recognition made Li Jinshen relax a little bit of his tense nerves, but it was only a little bit.

From the connection, he sensed that the distance between the two was getting farther and farther.

At the other end of the connection, the faint golden light spot is going away and will disappear soon.

What happened to Ye Zhibo?

Why did he let himself go?

Where is he and the Fifth Army now?

Li Jin lowered his eyes deeply, and the expression in his eyes fluctuated. Because of his lover's unexpected uneasiness, the strong mental fluctuations spread unconsciously, causing people sitting on both sides of the conference table to look over in surprise.

"Your Highness?"

There was silence in the chamber, and everyone looked at the imperial prince who suddenly stood up with a look of surprise.

They were originally having a weekly routine war meeting to plan the next phase of the war.Everything was going on in an orderly manner, but was suddenly interrupted by the prince of the empire.

The blond prince got up very quickly, and the legs of the high-back chair behind him collided with the ground hard, making a harsh friction sound, which was especially obvious in the quiet meeting.

The young crown prince has always respected the generals of the military department, and he will never be rude to others easily. He has always been known for his calmness and calmness, and his gaffe like today is almost unprecedented.

what happened?

The people sitting on both sides of the conference table looked at each other, and the general who was suddenly interrupted looked suspiciously and asked with some concern.

"Your Highness, what's the matter with you?"

"I'm fine." Li Jin calmed down and ordered, "Contact the Third Army, I want to talk to Xia Jie."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Although the rest of the people were confused, they still moved quickly under Li Jinshen's order.

After a while, there was a response from there.

"Your Highness, there is an extremely strong electromagnetic storm passing through the border of the Tenth District, and our communication request has been interrupted." The adjutant's voice sounded a little surprised, "We can't contact the Third Army."

This unusual situation undoubtedly made the generals present a little uneasy.

"How can there be an electromagnetic storm?"

"The monitoring tower didn't give any warning, what's going on?"

Electromagnetic storm is the most mysterious and dangerous killer in the universe, always appearing and leaving suddenly.Any photon channel will be distorted, not only the transition channel will be affected, even the normal communication will come to a standstill.

It's just that electromagnetic storms generally only appear in the third quadrant, and occasionally the tail of the storm sweeps across the asteroid belt.What's more, the entire lower four districts have been monitoring it. If an electromagnetic storm appears in the second quadrant, how could they not have received any warning in advance?

"How is this going?"

"Is the emergency energy reserve in the tenth district sufficient?"

……

……

The experienced generals quickly started to discuss, but the result of the discussion made their faces a little dignified.

"If this electromagnetic storm lasts longer, the communication of the entire lower four districts will be affected!"

And communication is inconvenient - a taboo in war!

This will even affect the direction of the entire battle situation in the future!

"We have to respond..."

"If the communication can't be restored, we can only..."

Li Jinshen ignored the discussion that erupted behind him again, just walked to the window and looked out.

At this time, dusk was approaching, but the sky was gray and white, and the cold air hit his face, soaking deep into Li Jinshen's heart and lungs.

He raised his head as if feeling something, and saw large flakes of snowflakes falling from the sky one after another, quickly covering the entire sky.

Snowing.

The Ninth District has a special location. The winter is very short and comes very late. It is far from snowing now.

There will be no such heavy snow.

This is not the weather that District [-] should have, but an abnormal climate change due to the influence of electromagnetic storms.

Sure enough, something happened to Ye Zhibo.

... Electromagnetic storm?

This kind of interference and interruption caused by force majeure always made him feel a little familiar.

Li Jinshen suddenly remembered the space turbulence that he and Ye Zhibo encountered at the transition point not long ago, and was slightly taken aback, then his face turned extremely cold in an instant.

The process of these two accidents is so similar.

It's the same person.

who is it?

Able to change the material properties of the universe with one's own power, cause space turbulence, and even directly change the passage of photons, artificially creating an electromagnetic storm——

This kind of power is difficult even for legends.

In other words, except for the queen of Shen Xinghai... almost no one in the current Milky Way can do it!

The blond-haired prince stood by the window, his eyes reflected the snow that was swirling outside the window, but the dark green pupils were so dark that there was hardly any light to be seen.

Is it outside the domain?

still is……

that place?

"Your Highness—Your Highness!"

At this time, the adjutant's pleasant voice suddenly sounded, which brought Li Jinshen back to his senses and looked sideways.

He heard the adjutant's quick report: "Received an urgent message from the Third Army 15 minutes ago, they have successfully merged with the Fifth Army!"

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly relaxed.

"They have not been affected by the electromagnetic storm! They have avoided the asteroid belt and cannot return on time for the time being." The adjutant's voice relaxed a lot.

Under such an electromagnetic storm, it was fortunate that the fleet was not affected, and finally got a piece of good news. It seems to be lighter.

"...The damage to the fleet this time is not serious. We only lost a few starships, which have been recovered, and no one has died so far."

After these words, the atmosphere in the room immediately relaxed completely, and everyone was about to continue discussing the next battle situation, but the expression of the young adjutant suddenly changed, and he turned to the blond prince of the empire, and shouted: "—Your Highness! "

The adjutant was the same as his lord, he always looked like he was flattered or humiliated, such a gaffe immediately reminded people of the prince's abnormality before, and made all the generals look sideways.

The young adjutant's expression was a little pale, and his hands that pressed the information receiving screen trembled slightly.

"One person is missing in this electromagnetic storm..." He paused as if he didn't know how to speak, and then whispered, "Ye Zhibo, the temporary commander of the Fifth Legion, was involved in the electromagnetic storm, and the starship crashed. , There is no response to the communication... Life and death are unknown."

There was silence in the meeting room.

Everyone subconsciously looked at the blond prince with his back turned to them.

Being caught in the electromagnetic storm and losing the starship, there is no reason for any talent below the legend to survive.

Ye Zhibo, who made great contributions to the suppression of the rebellion this time, was more than lucky.

Some people thought about the abnormality of the prince just now, thoughtfully, and then looked at the young prince with some sympathy.

It is said that the gifted student with silver hair is the prince's lover.

It is said that the prince of the empire insisted on going to the front line because of his lover.

It is said...they had agreed to announce their relationship after the war ended.

Unexpectedly, the first strong man to fall from the side of the empire would have such an identity.

The atmosphere in the meeting room became more and more serious.

"……I see."

In a disturbing silence, the young prince turned around, his face was very pale, but he still calmly gave orders to his adjutant: "Tell Xia Jie, pay attention to safety, I will wait for them to return safely."

His voice was very deep and cold, like the solid ice buried deep under the icy lake of Taige Star that would not melt for thousands of years.

Those green pupils were frozen.

The young imperial prince closed his eyes, then opened them, looked at the generals in the room who were looking at him, and said wearily but firmly: "Now, let's continue."

"Time is running out, and we must come up with a plan to deal with electromagnetic storms as soon as possible."

……

……

The room was silent.

In the end, the young adjutant hesitated and said, "Your Highness, you..."

Do you want to take a break?

His words were frozen in the eyes of the blond prince.

Li Jin took a deep breath, pulled the chair with one hand, sat back upright in the main seat, and nodded slightly to all the generals who were watching him: "Let's get started."

His right hand was covered in his sleeve from beginning to end, his five fingers were tightly clenched, and the black ring almost left blood marks on his palm.

Under the gazes of everyone with different expressions, his back was straightened.

"Your Highness..." Someone opened his mouth, and finally swallowed the words of comfort in the calm expression of the blond prince, sighed and exchanged glances with his colleagues, and started another round of discussion.

"Since we are in the asteroid belt, we can bypass the tenth area and enter from behind..."

"This is not right! You..."...

……

The discussion about the incident continued well into the night.

After consecutive high-intensity heated debates, even though all the people present here are high-level talents, they are exhausted to the extreme.

"Knock Knock-"

An attendant entered the meeting room and brought herbal tea and supper for everyone.

It was the attendant class of the head of the Sixth Army Corps. One of them, a handsome silver-haired boy, approached the man on the main seat and greeted softly, "Your Highness, please use some food."

Li Jinshen slightly closed his eyes, leaned back to rest in harmony, and nodded after hearing the voice: "Just put it on the table."

The adjutant next to him took it, leaned closer to the blond prince, and whispered with some concern: "Your Highness, please use some, your body is important..."

The adjutant looked a little strangely at the supper and then stepped aside. The silver-haired boy who had never left by the wall stood forward and blocked the other party's view.

"Your Highness..."

Under the persistent persuasion of the adjutant, Li Jin sighed silently and opened his eyes.

"I'm fine, you..."

An extremely ominous warning flashed across his heart in an instant.

Then he saw the general sitting across from him suddenly widen his eyes, roaring angrily as he wanted to pounce, but fell powerlessly in front of the table.

"--Be careful!!"

At the same time as the warning sound, there was a wind that was as fast as lightning.

"Buzz!"

Then the blunt sound of the sharp blade piercing into the body and the low cry of surprise sounded slowly.

"Your Highness!"

"What's going on! Why can't I move?!"

"Damn, there's something wrong with that cup of tea—"

Li Jinshen was thrown aside by his adjutant, staggered to his feet, and his expression darkened when he saw the situation in the arena.

There were a total of five participants in this meeting, all of whom were senior generals of the headquarters, but at this moment, three of them lost their mobility and were restrained by the soldiers of the Sixth Army that poured in afterwards.

No, those were not soldiers of the Sixth Legion.

That is a private soldier belonging to the nobles!

Li Jinshen was forced to retreat to the window, looking coldly at the only person who was still standing there.

The head of the Sixth Legion, an offshoot of the Li family, should have been one of the most trusted by the royal family.

But now he pointed the blade at his comrades in the rear of the battlefield.

"Li Zhen, do you want to rebel?"

The person being questioned by the imperial prince was a brown-haired middle-aged man. Hearing this, he smiled helplessly and said, "Sorry, Your Highness, I have a reason to do this."

"Reason?" Li Jinshen's eyes were piercingly cold, "Is there a more important reason than betraying Xia Deng, losing the honor of the royal family, and breaking my promise...?"

The head of the Sixth Army Corps smiled wryly and shook his head: "As long as you stay in the Ninth District during this period and don't leave your mansion, I guarantee that nothing will happen."

"When everything is over, the lower four districts will still belong to the empire, and you will return to the position that belongs to you." There was a strange emotion in Li Zhen's words, "I will still be your most loyal subject. "

Li Jin raised his chin in disdain: "Thinking of committing crimes against the emperor, and imprisoning the emperor's subjects?"

There was an indescribable irony in his voice.

"The most loyal?" The blond prince of the empire smiled contemptuously, "I'm afraid I can't afford the most loyal subject like you."

Faced with such sarcasm, the brown-haired legion leader just smiled apologetically.

"If that's the case, then I can only offend you." Li Zhen's smile was full of certainty, and he looked at the young adjutant who had been silently standing in front of the imperial prince, "Your most loyal subject is indeed not my servant, is it? ... Your Excellency, adjutant, my... good nephew?"

……

……

Li Jin heard the hidden meaning in the other party's words, and his face suddenly darkened.

He saw the adjutant standing in front of him glance back at him very quickly, his face was extremely pale.

"Sorry, Your Highness."

The young adjutant spoke in a low voice, moved his hand covering the bloody wound on his side, and pressed the saber hanging on his waist.

The adjutant looked up at the brown-haired army commander, and said in a cold tone: "Of course you are not, and don't call me that."

The young adjutant drew out his knife, took one last look at Li Zhen, and turned around: "I have nothing to do with you, uncle."

The bright knife light faltered, giving off an extremely cold light in the night.

Li Jinshen looked at his adjutant with a calm expression, and watched quietly as the adjutant raised his knife and pointed the tip at him.

His expression didn't waver in the slightest.

The young adjutant smiled apologetically at him.

"Of course I am His Highness's most loyal subordinate."

The adjutant said softly, raised his hand, the light of the saber surged in an instant, and swept away behind them!

At the same moment, that young figure flew forward and pushed the blond prince out of the window viciously—

"Go, Your Highness!"

Under this blow, Li Jinshen suddenly fell out of the window, reacted very quickly, jumped out with his strength, flew back, and quickly escaped from the encirclement on the ground.

"Walk--!"

The vast snow could not block his sight.

He saw the sudden change in the expression of the brown-haired legion commander, and the sudden expansion of the spiritual force field that filled the room.

He saw his adjutant blocking the hole with his body, struggling to hold on under the suppression of the spiritual field, and finally being completely submerged by the soldiers rushing forward.

The other party's last words still lingered in my ears, echoing dully in the white snowy night.

"Go, Your Highness! Go—"

……

……

"Susu..."

Half an hour later, in the coniferous forest on the outskirts of Xicheng District, District [-], a man with long black hair jumped from the tree and landed on the ground without a sound.

He landed on the ground silently, identified the direction, and then silently pulled up the hood behind him.

The expression in those gray-blue eyes was extremely cold.

"Sharma, how many people are there?"

A black-haired girl wearing a priestess costume suddenly appeared, and said in a cold voice, "There are two teams in the direction of twelve o'clock, three o'clock, and five o'clock, and one team in the directions of ten o'clock and seven o'clock."

"Break out from the direction of nine o'clock and look for an opportunity to leave." Li Jinshen gently took off the ring on his right hand and put it in his close pocket.

The obsidian ring was still warm and pressed tightly against his heart, like a gentle kiss.

"You go there!"

"This way!"

Footsteps and shouts could be heard faintly in the wind and snow, getting closer and closer to them.

In such a tense situation, the intellectual brain named Sharma still spoke flatly: "Please set a destination."

Li Jinshen was silent for a moment, and then said softly: "Desolate star number E4-C902, asteroid belt."

"Settings are complete, ready to sail at any time."

A faint smile flickered across the gray-blue eyes.

Li Jin took a deep breath and walked forward.

In the spiritual sea, the light point on the link side flickered on and off, swaying non-stop, like a guidepost to guide the direction.

That was the direction Ye Zhibo pointed out for him.

That was also the way out that Li Jinshen had set for himself.

The place where they first met.

E4-C902.

That was a tacit code between Li Jinshen and Ye Zhibo.

For them, that number represents a certain meaning.

——I'll wait for you there.

……

……

"Susu..."

The wind and snow grew stronger and soon covered the dark figure.

The distant footprints were covered by the wind and snow, and no traces could be seen anymore.

The author has something to say: Well, although the end of the month is almost over, I still have 10,000+ words!

The recent plot is not stuck, and it is advancing step by step according to the outline, why does it feel like no one is watching it all of a sudden_(:з」∠)_
