Same light

Alfred stared at the empty photo frame for a few seconds, forcing his thoughts back to the current situation.

He turned to Marshal Stone and his son, and before he could speak, Marshal Stone asked, "Your Highness, when will we fight?"

"Wait a minute." Alfred reached out his hand and made a stop gesture, indicating that we will not talk about this for the time being—leaving this topic aside, but he said to Austin who was standing behind: "Go and contact someone for me." , I want to tell him one thing - no, I want to give him a chance."

"Who to contact?" Austin was a little confused, wondering who could be more important than that huge flying object at this moment.

"Apper."

"Who's April?"

Alfred said impatiently: "It's May. Didn't you still buy his concert tickets?"

Austin was startled, and his back felt cold for a moment.

Xiaomei made her debut as a singer after breaking up with Alfred, and she will soon have her first concert on the main planet, and he did buy tickets.This is not a big or serious matter, even his father doesn't know about it, but Alfred knows about such a private matter...

His father has become the generalissimo, and he is still cautious in every way, but when he is outside, he often pretends to be a rough soldier with no scheming. Austin couldn't understand it when he was a child, but now he gradually understands it.

Royal is suspicious and extremely difficult to get along with.The emperor is like this, and the little prince in front of him is even more so.

He was shocked at first, and then he reacted to another question, and couldn't help asking: "Why does Xiaomei have another name?"

Alfred glanced at him, did not answer the question, and ordered.

"Tell him, no matter what the show is, the crew of the Third Cantilever, in short, he will play the leading role. You can arrange this matter."

The existential crisis has just passed, the so-called "entertainment industry" has just emerged, and it is still a game for the rich.Because Austin has pretended to be a playboy for many years, he has many friends in the entertainment industry. Xiaomei can quickly become popular and open concerts as soon as she debuts. Apart from her excellent singing skills, it is also because of his help.

Of course he would be happy to ask him to introduce Xiaomei to act, but it would be too weird for Alfred to personally order this matter at such an urgent time.

Austin tried to keep up with his train of thought and asked, "Is that the crew you told Mr. Housekeeper to find someone to set up just now?"

"Yes." Alfred said briefly, without explanation.

Austin became more and more confused.This incident seems to be that Alfred wanted to enter the emerging industry, invested in a drama series, and personally appointed the starring role.There is no problem in normal times, but why suddenly at this time...

Before he could figure out what was going on, Alfred turned to his father.

"How fast are they going, how close are they to reaching the border?"

"The speed is very fast, much faster than we imagined." Marshal Stone stared at his handheld, the holographic screen was floating in the air, flashing military reports quickly.

His handheld holographic screen is strictly encrypted, and no one else can see the content. Only Marshal Stone's eyes can see the information, because the corresponding special device is implanted in his eyes.

"Now that we have left the main planetary circle, if we follow this speed... we may be able to break through the border within two days."

How long will it take for the empire's fastest military ships to travel from the main planet to the border at full speed?Half a month?

The main army stationed near the main planetary circle cannot catch up no matter what, even if the whole army wants to pursue it, it is impossible.

Alfred closed his eyes and said, "Got it."

"I suggest to open fire." Marshal Stone said calmly. "According to the current path, they will pass through more than one legion garrison along the way. We can use heavy interstellar weapons to try to destroy them. If we let them reach the border unscathed, we will be stationed at the border." Its military strength is not enough, and it may not be able to stop it at that time."

"Don't try to destroy it for the time being." Alfred said, "Notify the regiments stationed along the way to try to fire and intercept, and immediately feedback and evaluate the combat capability of the opponent's aircraft."

"Your Highness, I understand that trying to fight with interstellar-level weapons near any planet will affect the nearby planets." Marshal Stone disagreed, "But even if you have to pay a price, you must keep them, and you must not Let it go. The prince took away a large number of confidential documents, and the high priest has core genetic technology. Once they break through the border, the consequences will be disastrous. Even if you try, you have to—"

"I said, don't try to destroy it yet!" Alfred insisted, "Immediately prepare the fastest warship to pursue."

"Your Highness... can't catch up."

"I said try to intercept along the way and delay the time. Didn't you hear? Get ready right away. I'm going to the palace to meet the emperor. I hope he wakes up, and then I will personally lead the army to pursue."

Marshal Stone was startled, and immediately objected: "Your Highness, this is inappropriate! No matter whether the spaceship was stopped or shot down by us, or broke through the border to leave, you should not leave the main planet, it is too risky. In case of accident , the empire can only rely on His Majesty—judging from His Majesty’s performance today, this is not a good idea. Your Highness, both public and private, I think it’s better for you to control the Empire in the current situation.”

"I'm already controlling the situation, all you have to do is follow my orders!" Alfred said coldly.Everyone could tell that he was in an extremely bad mood right now, and he didn't allow others to refute his orders at all.

This matter is not trivial, and it is too risky. Marshal Stone seemed to want to persuade him again, and Alfred said again: "By the way, Your Excellency, Marshal, there is one more thing I want to tell you. The one with a lot of confidential documents is not Prince, he is your nephew."

"There will be more than one legion garrison ahead. According to the tactical style of the current generalissimo, they are likely to intercept us at all costs along the way."

In a pure white room with rounded corners, Xiu said this.

He was in a superfast—for the Empire, superfast—spaceship, and he felt a little dizzy and nauseous, whether it was seasickness or not.

But no one could see his discomfort, because he looked calm and calm.

The translator dutifully translated this sentence, and the two men sitting on the other side of the long table discussed with each other.

Yes, two men.The same two eyes, one nose and one mouth, the same body structure and proportions, it seems that, except for the language barrier and different looks, the people on both sides of the long table seem to be the same.

But Xiu knew that they were so different.According to the standard of the empire, these people are just "ordinary people" without advanced genetic abilities. Even according to Xiu's observations over the past few hours, their average height and physical fitness are not as good as the real ordinary people of the empire.

But they showed up in the imperial city in spaceship without any scruples, and stayed over the Holy Golden Palace, which represents the imperial power. Evacuate at the speed of being pursued - just like that, they are not a regular army at all, but star robbers.

After a while, one of the men spoke to the translator.

"Sir, your conventional military methods should not be able to interfere with our airship." The translator relayed to Xiu with an awkward accent, "You don't need to worry about this."

Sir, this is really an unfamiliar title.Xiu is used to honorific titles, and no one has ever called him "Sir".

"No, you misunderstood, I'm not worried about safety. I just think that the main purpose of your trip should be to bring as much information back to your hometown as possible..." He paused, using the phrase he just said The word I just learned, "Bring it back to the Federation. Since you are confident that you can withstand the attack, why not make good use of this rare opportunity to penetrate into the empire's territory?"

Translated: "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, there is no need to leave in a hurry." Xiu said, "I can show you the way and take you to see several important military bases for yourself. You also said just now that your new president is happy to You pay for the useful intelligence you gather, don't you?"
