Humans collapse into slag

On January 2698, 1 in the Imperial Calendar, it was the fourth day that the Akatsuki fell into the magnetic field storm area.

The second deck of the first power cabin.

Liao Yuning saw Mu Rong get out of a maintenance pipeline, his temples were wet with sweat, and the gray engineer jumpsuit on his body was stained a lot.

Seeing Liao Yuning, Mu Rong's eyes lit up, and he didn't show too much excitement because he realized that there were other people around.

Liao Yuning approached, "Colonel Mu, how is the situation?"

"The hardware conversion has been completed." Mu Rong said: "When the system instructions are modified, you can debug."

Liao Yuning: "It's been hard these few days."

"It's not hard." Mu Rong smiled, showing a mouthful of white teeth on his dirty face.

Young Master Mu came from a family, although he is not in a humble and gentle style, but he has always had a lot of elegance and style, and now this embarrassing look is rare.

Liao Yuning even smelled the sweat on this man's body, mixed with the smell of metal and engine oil.

After Mu Rong's main work was completed, he could take a break, and Liao Yuning took people to his captain's room.

Liao Yuning didn't hide the alumni relationship between the two, so others didn't find it strange to see their close personal relationship.

As soon as he entered the captain's room, Mu Rong called out the nickname he had been suppressing just now.

"Ningning."

In the past few days, he was busy transforming the power system, and Liao Yuning was busy cleaning up the mess. The two met a few times in total. There were so many people, and they didn't have time to say anything intimate.

The hatch is closed.

As soon as Mu Rong stretched his long legs and stretched his arms, he "thumped" Liao Yuning on the wall at the door.

Liao Yuning was forced to raise his face, showing such an expression of helplessness and early knowledge, the lights reflected in his bright black eyes, like twinkling stars.

Under the light, the corners of the young man's mouth were slightly pursed, and two small dimples sank into his cheeks.

Ahhh, Ningning really looks good no matter how you look at it!

The more Colonel Mu looked at it, the happier he became, and the more he looked at it, the more itchy and unbearable, his eyes burned like a fire, and the temperature in the room also rose.

Liao Yuning's cheeks turned red little by little.

"Ningning, I want to kiss you." Colonel Mu murmured.

Liao Yuning blinked his eyes, and his breathing gradually deepened. He didn't know what this man was doing, so he kissed him if he wanted to. He had never seen such a polite person a few days ago.

But Mu Rong remembered that he was covered in sweat, so he didn't really kiss him, "Let me use your bathroom first."

I have never had the opportunity to realize my wish of "bathing with Ningning", but now I can use Ningning's bathroom to take a bath, which is considered half of my realization.

Colonel Mu happily took a shower, put on the clean clothes Liao Yuning prepared for him, and praised in his heart: Ning Ning is really considerate.

This time when Mu Rong boarded the Dawn, he naturally didn't bring any luggage. He went to the engine department to help out a few days ago and changed into the overalls over there. His military uniform was left here with Liao Yuning.

Liao Yuning had already been cleaned and ironed by the logistics robot, including the cool black imperial army coat that Mu Rong wore when he came.

Colonel Mu was fully dressed and looked in the mirror again to make sure that his image was perfect before he walked out of the cabin.

Liao Yuning sat at the desk outside, folded his arms and looked at the light screen in front of him with a serious expression.

"What are you thinking?" Mu Rong walked over and asked.

Liao Yuning looked back and found that this person had cleaned up and walked over casually, full of momentum and a sense of aggression.

But for him, this feeling is not annoying, on the contrary, he will feel at ease and safe.

"I'm wondering why the Kirin attacked us."

Perhaps it was because he was vigilant from the beginning, Liao Yuning classified the Qilin into the enemy's category as soon as he was attacked, and made a decision to fight back.

At that time, there was no time to think about the reason why the Qilin attacked the Daybreak, and now I have a little time to think about this issue.

"Maybe it has something to do with the Tiandaohui." Mu Rong said.

He walked to Liao Yuning's chair, turned his back to the desk, and sat sideways on it.

The somewhat casual and uninhibited sitting posture forms a strong contrast with the straight and upright uniform of the Imperial Army. At the same time, because the face and legs are long enough, the visual effect is not bad.

Liao Yuning avoided his sight, lowered his arms, put his elbows on the armrests of the chair, sat up a little straighter, and then cleared his throat, "Have you found the beginning and end of the Tianqin Legion and the Tiandaohui?"

Mu Rong nodded slowly, "It's not without reason that the Tiandao Society has been able to hide in the Tianqin Starfield for 50 years."

The Tiandao Society was initially active in the Cepheus Star Domain, to be precise, within the Imperial Capital Galaxy.

Fifty years ago, Mu Rong's father, Mu Ming, led the imperial capital galaxy guards to completely destroy the strongholds of the Tiandaohui in Diji and Tianque, announcing the first destruction of the Tiandaohui.

In the next 50 years, Tiandaohui changed its strategy and went into hibernation completely.

After 50 years of operation, the Tiandaohui has formed a considerable scale in the secret base of the Aramus galaxy in the Lyra star field, while the imperial capital has been kept in the dark.

All of this is likely to have something to do with the local government or the legion.

"I can't figure it out." Liao Yuning frowned slightly, "Why do people still support those lunatics?"

"His Majesty has been in power for 60 years. He has been determined to rule and kill decisively. For the empire, he is certainly a rare wise monarch, but it has also caused the interests of many people to be damaged, such as revising the honorary succession system, such as implementing military and political reforms. "

Hearing what Mu Rong said, Liao Yuning didn't refute, because of the Pioneer matter, he had a grudge against the emperor he once admired, but he had to admit that Emperor Yuanchang was worthy of the title of "Mingjun".

"Any kind of change will affect the original vested interests. Some people will adapt to the times and make changes, while others will not. They will not and will not consider issues from the perspective of the entire empire."

To put it bluntly, it is those old aristocrats and local elites who, in order to protect their own interests, obstruct reforms.

"Tiandaohui, there are things they need that represent the old traditions of the past."

"What is it?"

"When von Weissmann was interrogated last time, he confided a secret that I think is likely to be true."

After listening to Mu Rong finish von Weissman's interrogation process, Liao Yuning was so shocked that he couldn't believe it.

"Are they all clones of the late emperor?"

Mu Rong nodded, "In this case, many questions can be explained clearly."

Why did Fan Xi suddenly appear in Diji? Why did the late Emperor Yuankang VIII defy all opinions and must push this illegitimate son to the throne, regardless of the opposition of other members of the royal family...

By the way, there was a saying at that time that Fan Wei was exactly the same as the late emperor when he was young, so he was deeply loved by the late emperor.

However, it was a rule established by the Fan Dynasty hundreds of years ago that clones could not inherit the throne.

As we all know, that is the bottom line of human relations after technological progress.

Yuankang VIII, who had been in power for more than half a century at that time, could not shake this rule, so he could only let the clone appear as an illegitimate child.

"This is a huge scandal for the Fan Dynasty." Liao Yuning said.

If this perverse practice of the first emperor is exposed, the reputation of the royal family will be greatly affected.

"Yeah." Mu Rong nodded: "I think His Majesty knows about this, even if he didn't know it at the beginning, after Fan Xi is imprisoned, he should be able to find out."

As for why the spaceship that exiled Fan Xi exploded, it is not known.

Liao Yuning's face sank like water.

In his memory, the first emperor was just insensible at first, but now he is even more unbearable.

In comparison, Yuan Chang Emperor Fan Lang performed much better.

Since his reign, Emperor Yuanchang has been shrinking the size of the royal family, reducing the inheritance of nobles, and even taking the initiative to restrain the imperial power and promote various political and military reforms.

Liao Yuning remembered that his teacher Malovet once analyzed for him that the emperor's long-term goal is to promote top-down democratic reforms...

"Don't think about it now." Mu Rong bent down, stretched out his hand to caress Liao Yuning's serious face, rubbed against the other's cheek skin, and whispered: "Think about me."

Liao Yuning raised his head in a daze, saw Mu Rong's handsome face pressed down, his mind was in a daze, and his lips were grabbed.

Well, forget about those nasty things.

The body responded earlier than the mind, Liao Yuning straightened up, and clasped his hands on Mu Rong's shoulders to provide more convenience for the opponent's intrusion.

It's really all about this guy.

This person's strength, this person's body temperature, this person's palm on her cheek, and this person's lips kissing her.

The low panting, the sound of skin rubbing, and the powerful pulsation of blood vessels converged in the eardrum, like a torrent sweeping through the whole body, and then filled the whole world.

Di-

Beeps from the intercom.

The two were stunned at the same time, Liao Yuning reacted first, retracted his hands on Mu Rong's shoulders, and gently pushed them away.

Only then did Mu Rong reluctantly let go.

After a passionate kiss, the face of the sweetheart was flushed, and the eyes were moist with water.

It took a lot of willpower for Colonel Mu not to continue pestering, watching his beloved Ning Ning answer the phone with a blushing face, trying to control his voice and tone, showing the demeanor of an excellent commander.

As for what was said during the call, it didn't enter Mu Rong's ears at all.

After the call ended, Liao Yuning had returned to calm.

"Senior, I'm going back to the bridge." He said, "You should also hurry up and take a break. The power source replacement plan will be implemented in two hours."

"Well, let me use your dormant cabin." Mu Rong said.

帝国历2698年1月21日，10:30。

[The No. [-] and No. [-] engines start and have been incorporated into the internal power system. 】

[No. 10 and No. 20 engines have been reset and merged into the navigation power system, the progress is 30%, [-]%, [-]%...]

[The self-inspection of the navigation power system is completed, and the conditions for starting are met. 】

Liao Yuning took the lead, and the officers and soldiers on the bridge applauded.

This transformation is the hope for the Akatsuki to get out of the predicament.

When it was attacked by the Qilin, the Akatsuki had already released the information, whether it was other ships in the fleet at that time, or the special fleet in Salem, or the Watchout in the Hourglass Galaxy, they might have gotten the news.

But without coordinates, it is impossible to find a warship in the vast universe.

Liao Yuning: "Start the spare power cabin!"
