Empire [Rebirth]

Lei Zhe stared at Caesar with an ugly expression, and then at Lin Zhen.

"Sure enough, they are the descendants of those people." He sneered inexplicably, the fact that the two of them didn't care about the fact that the civilization he enjoyed was stolen made it appear how stingy he cared.

"Let's talk about it. I haven't been in contact with the outside world for many years, and I don't know about the main star...is it okay?"

Lin Zhen succinctly told the other party the development history of the federation he knew well, and then said: "I don't know what the empire you are talking about looks like, but the territory of the federation has spread to nearly a hundred star fields, which is probably not the same as the empire you never forget. Same day."

The territory of the federation has expanded to the largest extent in the universe, and the cultural shock and integration brought about by those newly included star fields is immeasurable. It is very different from the situation in the empire era, and similarly, it cannot go back to the past.

Lei Zhe obviously understood this too, with a look of frustration on his face, Caesar said strangely: "According to what you mean, many supporters of the empire should have escaped, why didn't you do anything? You——how did you Came here? Haven't you been out all these years?"

"Don't test me." Lei Zhe gave Caesar a cold look, "I know the purpose of your coming here. I would like to advise you, don't daydream about leaving. I'm not afraid to tell you that we have been here for four years. 500 years, but have not successfully left once."

At the beginning, they were in a panic, and they couldn't remember how they broke into this planet. Similarly, no matter how many times they tried, they still couldn't leave.Otherwise, how could they tolerate the formation of a federation.

As for the other survivors, they lost contact when they were trapped on this planet.

Caesar and Lin Zhen looked at each other, and wanted to ask again, but Lei Zhe waved his hand.The robot butler stepped out of the void, and Lei Zhe said tiredly: "Take the two guests down and treat me well." The news he learned from Lin Zhen and his two mouths today frustrated him, and he was in no mood to care about Caesar and Lin Zhen's thoughts at this time Information to spy on.

After the two left, the 'sea lion' in the water tank couldn't hold back and said: "Damn it! How could this happen? Could it be that they are all dead like us! What a shitty federation, those traitors, shameless thieves!"

In their imagination, the companions who fled together at the beginning would definitely revive the empire, drive out those conspirators, and reshape the glory of the empire, but they didn't expect that not only failed to do so, but instead allowed those people to continue to grow their power and achieve a glamorous federation.

And Lei Zhe and the 'Sea Lion' know better than anyone else that four or five hundred years have passed, not everyone can live forever like them, and their companions are probably running out. Even if there are descendants left, hatred and war My mind may have been wiped out by a comfortable life...

Their dreams were shattered, and they had to face the reality—the empire no longer existed.

"If you need any help, please call the indoor robot. I hope you two have a good stay." The robot butler left politely.

Caesar and Lin Zhen took the indoor environment into their eyes vigilantly and made sure that there was no aggressive thing, and then they were a little relieved.Lin Zhen sat on the sofa thinking about Lei Zhe's words, with a frown between his brows.Caesar didn't care about it, he just falsified history, and he wasn't surprised at all.

That's what old men in Parliament do.

Just like the former self, no matter what reason they were not tolerated by the parliament, what they did was also to obliterate them.

Because of this unpleasant memory, Caesar scratched his head rudely, sat down, and said to Lin Zhen, "These people haven't been able to leave this ghostly place for hundreds of years, so I don't know if it's true or not."

"It may be misleading, but there is no need to lie to us." Out of a conceited superior mentality, Lin Zhen understood that the other party's "heart-to-heart talk" just now was not to threaten them. As he himself said, he was so bored that he wanted to find someone Talk to one person and learn about the outside world.

Caesar said: "It's impossible that we were the only ones who came here by mistake in these years. This kind of simple message doesn't have to be learned through us." Caesar said so, but his mind moved.The universe is so big, and the Federation detects some new life planets every year. If this planet is outside the detection range of the Federation, it is very likely that the people who broke into here before are also people from unknown planets of the Federation.

Jerry and other people in the seventh district learned of the existence of extraterrestrial guests. They thought that the high technology existing on this low-level civilization planet was obtained from extraterrestrial guests, but this assumption was no longer established.Then, it's very likely that those outsiders are poor people who broke in by mistake and are useless to Lei Zhe.

Lin Zhen also thought of this.

The two were speechless for a while, and Caesar got up and went into the bathroom, and turned on the optical brain.

He did not rashly use the detector in the optical brain, because the propagation medium used on this planet is not the common magnetic wave of the Federation.If Caesar hadn't gotten the magnetic wave generator from that Ley, the maker of the space black hole that caused them to fall into this planet, the light brain would be useless here.

The first thing he has to do is to copy the communication medium here.

Lei Zhe actually said some specious things, Caesar only believed half of it, he only believed what he saw and heard, so he made up his mind to invade the entire starship's operating system as early as when he entered the starship.He can get those materials by himself.

When Caesar was working hard, Lin Zhen was not idle.

The robot butler came here, euphemistically saying that he was afraid that the guests would be lonely so he brought something for them to pass the time.

The first thing to bear the brunt was the surveillance video of the two of them entering the second district.Naturally, Lei Zhe wasn't so boring. It was the 'Sea Lion' who ordered these things to embarrass Lin Zhen and the two of them. It made him feel bad, so naturally he wouldn't let them have a good time.

On the light curtain, his own embarrassment was projected, and at the same time, an image of Caesar easily entering the second area, which he did not know, was projected.The deeper the mark between Lin Zhen's brows, it is impossible for anyone to see his companion's behavior that can almost be called betrayal without emotion.

That punch was too light.

Lin Zhen clenched his fist unconsciously, lowering the stern look in his eyes.

He took a different stand from Caesar. The reason why he was still persistently looking for Caesar when he was injured, and even left the last life-saving pill to him, was not because of any noble sentiments, but because he was used to it.

He is the heir of the family, and different from the selfishness that Caesar developed by living independently, he shoulders the responsibility for the rise and fall of the family. Before thinking about himself, the first thing he considers is always other people—his family, his elders.As an excellent commander, besides winning the battle, he first weighs his teammates and subordinates.

In public, he is the instructor directly under Caesar, and in private, the reason why Caesar fell to this planet can be said to be his burden, so he is more responsible for protecting the other party.

It's not self-sacrifice, but these things are what he should do, and likewise, what he must do.

But he has never encountered the experience of being first abandoned by his teammates.

The light curtain was still showing, but the only viewer didn't want to look any further. After thinking for a long time in silence, he got up.

At the critical moment when Caesar was studying, he was disturbed by Lin Zhen's knock on the door, his hands kept moving, and he said without raising his head, "What are you doing?"

Lin Zhen's movements paused, and she slowly withdrew her hand.

Many things are often reflected in the details, just like Caesar's impatient voice at this time, this person lacks basic respect and trust in himself, this fact makes Lin Zhen frown.

"You come out, we need to talk."

When Caesar heard this, he paused his finger on the light curtain for a moment, then raised his voice, "Ten minutes."

Lin Zhen didn't insist. After 10 minutes, Caesar came out rubbing his stiff shoulders. The first attempt to copy failed. The medium didn't record data on the optical brain, so the difficulty of copying can be imagined.

"What's the matter?"

Caesar sat down blankly, rubbed his temples, and didn't pay attention to Lin Zhen's expression, otherwise he would find the danger in Lin Zhen's eyes at this time.

Lin Zhen lowered his eyes to hide some emotions that shouldn't be there, and said in a low voice: "The current situation is special, I think we need to have an open and honest talk before we act. I don't want personal emotions to be involved, I think you understand me the meaning of."

Caesar looked at him now.

Lin Zhen is very smart, but also very conceited.Caesar had always wondered why the other party tolerated many of his actions. Logically speaking, the two of them should have been torn apart due to various frictions, or due to their own intentional actions. Unexpectedly, he has always behaved very magnanimously. .

Caesar understood that, rather than being generous, this man did not see himself as a threat.

And now, is he finally willing to formalize his dissatisfaction?

Caesar raised his lips, and the expression on his face was even more rebellious because of this ambiguous smile.

Every time he confronted Lin Zhen, it was as painless as punching cotton. Caesar didn't know what Lin Zhen thought in the face of his own provocation, but every time the result definitely made him very aggrieved.

Nothing hurts a man's self-esteem more than his own grievances being regarded as unreasonable troubles. The other party does not despise your revenge, but ignores it.

Caesar said: "Why, finally you no longer blindly believe in your own strength, and are you willing to notice the strength of me, the 'weak'?"

Yes, he could feel Lin Zhen's conceit, no, it might be his innate self-confidence, but Caesar had been dissatisfied for a long time.

"Don't impose your views on me." Lin Zhen said: "This is exactly what I want to say to you, Caesar, don't rely on yourself alone. We are companions, don't you think so?"

Caesar was silent for a moment.

He admitted that he never regarded Lin Zhen as his companion.He is narrow-minded, and he minds what Lin Zhen did to him, but that is only a weak reason.More importantly...he no longer trusts the legion, no longer trusts the federation, and loses his blind belief in survival.

Lin Zhen, whether intentional or not, has always been positioned in his heart as the future ruler of the Legion of Glory, so he can't be innocent.

Oh, how sad.

Even in such an isolated and helpless situation, the first thing he guards against is the person who should be his companion.

Caesar realizes this, and has been going his own way along the way, blindly amplifying his hatred for Lin Zhen in his heart. In fact, thinking about it, it is just that he dare not look directly at the cowardice in his heart, and avoids his most unbearable hesitation and fear.

He was afraid, and even more apprehensive.

Since his rebirth, he has put himself on the opposite side of the Federation Parliament and the Legion, completely cutting off Lin Zhen's goodwill.

Shrinking himself into the turtle shell to protect himself is a kind of resistance, but it is even more shrinking and showing weakness.After figuring this out, Caesar looked at Lin Zhen with some confusion.

Could this be the price of rebirth—inner loneliness, and a pathetic inability to trust.In fact, he is far from integrating into the world after rebirth.
