Not knowing that the Xin family father and son had conflicts again due to their own reasons, Lu Xingxi, who had finished dinner alone, was wandering around the living area on the battleship when he saw Feng Yao who was staring blankly at the scene outside the porthole.

The news of the Fenghuo consortium's collusion with the remnants of the empire was conveyed to Feng Yao by Han Boqing himself after the meeting that day, but Feng Yao has not expressed his position on this matter to this day.Therefore, in order to prevent accidents, he was "picked up" by someone sent by Xin Guoli to the flagship and kept under close watch.And his partner, Chuning, was also temporarily isolated until the dust settled.

Lu Xingxi hadn't had much contact with Feng Yao, and he didn't leave a good impression on him. Now that they met by accident, he didn't know what to say to him.So, with a slight pause in his footsteps, he wanted to go around before Feng Yao found him.

Unexpectedly, just when Lu Xingxi turned to leave, Feng Yao turned around.

As soon as their eyes met, Lu Xingxi easily saw through the conflicting and struggling emotions in Feng Yao's eyes.Now that he had been seen by the other party, he was no longer in a hurry to leave, and simply walked over to say hello generously.

"Have you had dinner?"

Hearing Lu Xingxi's question, Feng Yao actually gave a short laugh, and then, under Lu Xingxi's puzzled gaze, he coughed and said, "You don't seem like someone who can say such nonsense! I really can't find you." Can you tell me something?"

This is the truth, Lu Xingxi was silent.

Feng Yao, who had been silent for so many days, seemed to suddenly come to talk about sex. While Lu Xingxi remained silent, he continued on his own: "Xin Xunyang's new mecha is really powerful, and I heard that it can also be piloted by two people. ? Is there any obvious difference from a single-pilot, artificial intelligence-equipped mecha?"

"Humans are more flexible than machines." Lu Xingxi replied.

"Well, can I have a look?" Feng Yao asked again.

Feng Yao's request was actually just because he was bored for too long and wanted to find something to do. At the same time, as a first-class knight, he was curious about the best mechs.But after he said that, he regretted it—not to mention that his current position was ambiguous to Lu Xingxi and others, even if the impact of his father's actions were not considered, the mecha of Suguang should have There are also a lot of Lu Xingxi's patented technologies that have not been disclosed to the public, and they are not allowed to be visited casually.

After realizing it, Feng Yao wanted to take back what he just said, but Lu Xingxi nodded and said calmly: "Yes. But, you can't enter the cockpit."

Even if Lu Xingxi didn't mention this additional requirement, Feng Yao still knew the rules.

"Thank you." After saying something sincerely, Feng Yao showed some anticipation on his face, "I want to go and have a look now, okay?"

"Okay." Lu Xingxi agreed very simply.

The real relationship between Xin Xunyang and Lu Xingxi, apart from them on the entire battleship, only Xin Guoli knows about it.And before Xin Guoli took any action against Lu Xingxi, in the eyes of the soldiers on the battleship, he was Xin Xunyang's exclusive technician and a guest who needed courtesy.Therefore, with Lu Xingxi leading the way, Feng Yao, who was originally restricted in the area of ​​activities, can finally walk out of the living area and come to the aircraft cabin.

Surrounded by all military dark green mechs G3, the pitch-black Dawn and the pure white Regid are very eye-catching. Feng Yao had already seen the positions of these two mechas the moment he entered the parking cabin.

Seeing Lu Xingxi and Feng Yao approaching Shuguang, several knights who stayed behind in the aircraft cabin followed cautiously.

"Mr. Lu, may I ask if this is..."

"It's a bit boring, so I came to see Shuguang. Don't worry, we won't do anything superfluous." Lu Xingxi explained the purpose of his visit under the suspicious eyes of the other party.

"You are Mr. Xin's partner, of course we believe that you will not do anything against him, but this one is also here..." The knight who spoke turned his gaze to Feng Yao, "Because of the order from above, I hope you can Agree that we will follow behind and watch."

Feng Yao didn't respond to what he said, as if he didn't hear it.

Lu Xingxi didn't want to embarrass the people present, so he agreed.

The team visiting Dawn instantly increased to six people.

Feng Yao promised not to touch Shuguang randomly, so he just took the elevator and looked at Shuguang carefully up and down.After a long while, he suddenly stopped moving, and said in a muffled voice: "My father's consortium didn't focus on mecha manufacturing. It was after I was born that I showed the talent of a knight, so my father began to hire a large number of talents in this field, and increased the number of mechas. It was invested by A. He said, he wants someone to make the best mecha for me.” This was the first time Feng Yao mentioned related matters after learning that the Fenghuo Consortium had betrayed the alliance.

"Unfortunately, I haven't seen the mecha he promised, and things have become like this." After a pause, Feng Yao firmly said under Lu Xingxi's clear gaze, "I don't know if he came out of What kind of mentality came together with the remnants of the empire, and I don’t know whether this behavior is good or bad for the alliance, but I am his son after all, and it is impossible to swing a knife at the father who gave birth to me.”

Hearing Feng Yao's confession, the faces of the four accompanying knights changed, and hostility appeared in their eyes instantly.

But after that, Feng Yao's words temporarily stabilized them who were already preparing to take action.

Compared with before, Feng Yao, who seems to have become much calmer these days, said slowly: "I want to ask my dad what's going on in person, and I won't take any action before meeting him. Unfavorable behavior. If General Xin doesn’t believe it, he can lock me up first, or even use me as an exchange condition to negotiate with my father, and I can cooperate.”

Feng Yao's proposal is undoubtedly much more beneficial to the alliance than Xin Guoli's original estimation of "absolute neutrality". Lu Xingxi thinks that Xin Guoli should adopt it.In this way, he agreed to Feng Yao's visit to Shuguang, so as to open up the topic, which can be regarded as achieved.But when accompanying Feng Yao to explain the situation to Xin Guoli, Lu Xingxi found that Xin Guoli kept staring at him as if he was not listening to Feng Yao's proposal at all.Even the soldiers next to him could feel the undisguised anger.

The inquiring gaze turned to Xin Xunyang, but after discovering that the other party's seemingly calm expression was also lurking with anger, Lu Xingxi's doubts deepened.

The atmosphere was subtly deadlocked.

Obviously should be the center of the topic, but somehow felt that he was marginalized. After Feng Yao finished his thoughts, he looked at Xin Guoli speechlessly.

At this time, the weather-beaten general seemed to have just recovered, cleared his throat and said: "I will consider your suggestion and give you an answer within two days. In order to thank you for your cooperation, no matter what our final decision is What, your treatment here will maintain the status quo. In addition, if you have any requirements, you can also say it now."

"I don't have any special requirements. It's just that, like me, Chuning doesn't know anything about the consortium. Can you set him free?"

Nodding, Xin Guoli replied with some reservations: "I heard that this young man is also a very good technician. Don't worry, we won't wrong any one of them after we find out that he really doesn't know."

Feng Yao knew that this was the biggest promise he could get from the other party so far.

The conversation ended briefly, and after Feng Yao was sent away by the guards, Xin Guoli turned to Lu Xingxi.Before he could speak, Xin Xunyang suddenly strode past him, directly took Lu Xingxi's hand, and walked out without saying hello.

Seeing this, Xin Guoli waved his hand and swept the cup on the table to the ground.

The crackling sound reached Lu Xingxi's ears, and his heart couldn't help jumping.

******

Xin Xunyang walked extremely fast, and when Lu Xingxi found that he almost had to trot to catch up with the opponent's speed, he simply stopped.

The sudden pause at the back pulled Xin Xunyang out of the chaotic world of thinking, and he looked back at the silent Lu Xingxi.

What happened before, although the two have not had any verbal communication, they seem to have seen the answer in each other's eyes.

Feeling a little frustrated, Xin Xunyang scratched his drooping hair, and said with patience: "Actually, I don't particularly care about his attitude." After failing to showdown with Xin Guoli, he would be so angry, but in fact, it was more angry at himself—— He thought he didn't care what Xin Guoli would say, but after hearing the other party's strong opposition, he realized that he was still affected psychologically at that moment.Does this mean that while he said he didn't care about the twisted father-son relationship at all, he still had expectations in his heart?

For Xin Xunyang, the biggest blow was to find that his determination was not as strong as before, and he didn't know how to express this feeling to Lu Xingxi.

Lu Xingxi raised his hand to help the other party straighten his messy hair.

Even though the relationship between the two is so close, he still can't grasp Xin Xunyang's mood at the moment, but it is obvious that Xin Xunyang is very troubled at this time-when he is troubled, those blue eyes will become like The sky, which is about to rain, is covered with a layer of gray.

After thinking about it, Lu Xingxi said, "Is General Xin very opposed to us being together?"

This question reminded Xin Xunyang of the impolite and selfish things that Xin Guoli had said before when he heard that he and Lu Xingxi were in a relationship.

In the final analysis, the core idea of ​​Xin Guoli's objection is that Xin Xunyang inherited his knight's gene, and he should pass on this excellent gene as much as possible, instead of hanging out with a man and cutting off his precious blood in vain.After all, the knight's genetic inheritance method is quite special. According to the current research data of the alliance, there is no such thing as atavistic inheritance.That is to say, the next generation of Xin Xunyang, who is also the son of Xin Guoli, who is a knight, may also be a knight, while the descendants of Xin Yichu will never be able to give birth to a knight—unless he marries a female knight.

However, judging from the current results of various attempts by the alliance, the combination of knights and knights is the most likely to ensure the smooth inheritance of their mutated genes, so the mainstream view does not support the marriage of precious female knights with ordinary people.Moreover, the kind of "pure blood knight" whose parents are both knights is generally stronger than their peers.For example, Han Boqing is one of the representatives of the alliance's young "Pure Blood Knights".

Xin Xunyang also learned these theories when he was in school, but he had no interest in leaving offspring to continue his bloodline. After discovering his feelings for Lu Xingxi, he completely lost his desire for a child. Thoughts... As a result, Xin Guoli now uses this matter that he has no interest in to oppose him being with Lu Xingxi.

Because the starting point of the debate between the two parties is fundamentally different, after discovering that Xin Guoli's plan was to make himself a stallion, Xin Xunyang gave up communicating with the other party.

Pulling down Lu Xingxi's hand, he put it on his lips and kissed it lightly. Xin Xunyang said: "The old man's brain is already filled with rotten stones, and it is impossible to be civilized at all. I won't repeat the nonsense words he said to you. Well, anyway, there is no loss if you don't know, and you can save trouble." It was a tacit consent to Lu Xingxi's guess.

"Yeah." Lu Xingxi responded with a smile, "Honestly speaking, I don't really care if I have your family's blessing or not."

From Lu Xingxi's point of view, whether he and Xin Xunyang are together or separated is a matter between the two of them.It doesn't matter to him whether other people agree or disagree.Of course, if relatives and friends are willing to give blessings, he will thank them, but if the other party really can't understand, then it doesn't matter.

This reaction was similar to what he expected, which made Xin Xunyang feel a little more relaxed.

However, considering Xin Guoli's tough and domineering character, Xin Xunyang still felt that it was not a wise decision to stay in the fleet of the First Legion after he had confessed his relationship with Lu Xingxi to the other party.Fortunately, the time for them to rendezvous with Salfi is not far away.

"When we get to Pangu, we'll leave this fleet and go find Salfi." Pulling Lu Xingxi closer to him, Xin Xunyang put his arms around the opponent's waist and said in a low voice.

In the nearly a week since they acted together with the First Legion, the structure of the Star Alliance has changed a lot.First of all, it was natural that the news of the split of the Tenth Legion quickly spread throughout the alliance under the deliberate spread of the remnants of the empire and the traitors.Then, at a moment of panic, the planetary prime ministers who had already privately reached a tacit agreement with the remnants of the empire announced their departure from the Star Alliance.Just yesterday, the planetary governments that broke away from the alliance released information about their re-alignment, and the name of this new alliance is "New Boundless Federation".Obviously, considering the acceptance of the general public, the remnants still dare not restore the name of the empire from the very beginning.

Since nearly half of the members of the alliance withdrew and formed the new Boundless Federation, the territory of the Star Alliance has undergone great changes.Today, with the Potts planetary belt as the boundary, the Starlight Alliance and the New Boundless Federation each occupy a star field.Because Chen Xing was too close to the Potts planetary belt, for the sake of safety, the remaining five legion leaders agreed at the meeting to move the base camp to "Pangu" in the rear for relative safety.

As for the next step, whether to go to war with the New Boundless Federation immediately, or to keep a low profile and wait for the situation to gradually stabilize before making other plans, we have to wait until the five legion commanders have an interview.
