"Senior." Horatio straightened his back and saluted the female sergeant.

"Are you injured?"

"By the Emperor's blessing, no." Horatio replied solemnly with a proud smile.

The heroic female sergeant breathed a sigh of relief and patted Horatio's shoulder equipped with an iron arm:

"You acted very bravely today and lived up to your name as a loyal heir."

Immediately afterwards, she returned Horatio's aquila salute, and the other loyal sailors around him also saluted.

"Thanks."

call out--

A shuttle with a sci-fi appearance and a gold-plated coat of arms suddenly drove in from the gap in the upper nest.

The surrounding float vehicles and Valkyrie transport planes all gave way.

The shuttle was also very knowledgeable and chose a corner to descend slowly without interfering with the rescue.

The shuttle's vector engine slowly swung to a 90-degree angle and slowly fell.

After it stopped, two sections of ladder-shaped folding hatches fell down.

Everyone nearby looked towards the hatch.

"Could it be His Excellency Alexander Hood?" Two loyal sailors whispered.

"Should? Besides Mr. Hood, who else would come here specially?"

Ta, da.

There was a sound of steady footsteps, and a tall man appeared in front of everyone.

The middle-aged officer has a well-proportioned figure. Although there are some wrinkles on his face, he is still majestic and solemn, with bright eyes and full of energy.

He is wearing a navy military uniform with a great style of the Age of Discovery, and the edges of the clothes are decorated with golden stripes that symbolize status.

A soft woolen navy bicorne hat is sandwiched with pure white feathers, and the outermost part is casually draped in blue on the outside and white on the inside. A dignified and luxurious navy admiral's coat. It can be seen at a glance that this person has an extraordinary origin and a high position.

Sergeant Louise's eyes suddenly widened. She recognized the person, immediately took off her helmet, and made a respectful aquila salute.

"All of you, salute His Excellency Commodore Edward Perroux!"

Click!

All loyal seamen raised their guns to their shoulders and gave a symbolic military salute.

The man raised his hand to sign off, and his eyes fell on Horatio.

"Well, reserve sergeant Horatio Corcoran, first time meeting." The man greeted energetically, but his words were not as serious as his image.

This relieved Horatio.

"Hello, Brigadier General!" Horatio raised a smile and responded politely: "I didn't expect you to come in person."

"You look so much like your father. When my father was sent to my frigate as a candidate officer by a letter of recommendation, he was almost your age. Time flies and you are so old..."

The man's hands were behind his back, and his eyes were filled with memories of the past.

"I'm ready to become a member of the Imperial Navy."

"Very good." The man nodded cogently: "Do you know what you are going to do now?"

"Uh...try to become a qualified Zhongsi student!"

"That's right, but I want you to set your goal to become an excellent candidate for a loyal successor."

"Of course, sir!"

"Let's talk about the rest until tonight. I'll deal with the mess here first."

The man came to the middle of the field and cleared his throat.

"Dear citizens of the Empire!" The man's loud voice spread throughout the neighborhood without the need for a speaker, like a captain giving orders.

Some of the people around him were crying, some were angry, and some looked indifferent, but they all looked at him.

"On behalf of the Imperial Navy, I deeply regret the bloodshed and sacrifice today, and strongly condemn the murderer! Our heroic loyal sailors severely repelled the murderer who caused this vicious incident.

Citizens of the Empire, violence is not the answer to everything, the Guild Alliance is a very bad example, and Fleet Gothic will always side with loyal citizens of the Empire.

From now on, our sailors will gradually take over the security here. Please believe that whether it is a battleship hanging high in the sky or a soldier patrolling the streets, the Imperial Navy will become the strongest shield for all loyal Imperial citizens!

Starting this month, the Gothic Fleet will distribute emergency relief supplies to F-4 Block and ten other blocks in the same situation to help loyal and law-abiding citizens of the Empire tide over the difficulties.

Our medical officers and holy nuns will provide free complete medical and rehabilitation services to the injured in this incident, and will also provide shelter for children who have lost their parents. Please rest assured, believe in His holy navy and the Gothic fleet. ! "

Brigadier General Edward Peruvian's speech may not have gorgeous words or inflammatory appeal, but it is short, powerful and pragmatic. Horatio looked around and saw that many people had tears in their eyes and knelt down, chanting in praise of the emperor. Prayers and Holy Signs.

"Navy! Navy! Navy!"

More people began to shout slogans in support of the Imperial Navy.

"All the loyal servants of the empire who are fighting on the front line, you have done a good job. Thank you for your hard work."

Edward Perroux saluted the loyal seamen and ambulance personnel present, as well as the nuns.

"Don't dare to work hard, I have to trouble you to clean up the mess for the guild alliance." The female sergeant responded solemnly.

"Someone has to manage Abyss Port. If trouble can't be avoided by handing it over to the Guild Alliance and the like, it can only be us." Edward responded with a decent smile.

Horatio looked at the man. After peeking at the log of the chief officer of the Fleet Intelligence Command, this sentence sounded quite special to him.

"Let's go, Mr. Cochrane. I didn't expect that I could call you this name for more than 30 years. Maybe I should call you Horatio or Mr. Cochrane Jr. I'm afraid I'll mistake you for Thomas."

[Commodore Perroux actually came to pick him up in person...? Who is this reserve sergeant? ]

In the surprised eyes of Sergeant Louise and others, Edward put his arm around Horatio's shoulders and walked towards the shuttle.

After a whole night of meetings about the Vegas area, and knowing that the cultists had extended their claws to his daughter, Major General Alexander Hood, who was extremely irritable, pushed open the door of the study roughly.

He turned on the power of the chandelier, instinctively glanced at the alarm device, and then looked around the study vigilantly. After finding nothing unusual.

He lay down on the leather seat with a sense of relief, rubbed his temples tiredly, and closed his eyes to rest.

After a long while, he opened his eyes and looked at the holographic star map by the window. The window over there was not closed, and the breeze blew the gauze curtains.

Suddenly, the man frowned.

He had stared at the window several times when he was writing his diary. The star map had not moved for a long time. The place facing him was obviously the Kronus Expansion, but now it has become the Eye of Terror centered on Cadia.

[Someone has been to the study! ]

The man's eyes widened with anger, and he stood up in an instant.

He walked along the star map and his eyes fell on a slightly protruding book on the bookshelf next to him.

The old housekeeper had obsessive-compulsive disorder. When he sorted the books, he almost used a ruler to measure the level of each book.

At this moment, this book that he had not touched for a long time protruded about three millimeters more than the other books in the same row. Most people would just glance over it, but it was particularly eye-catching in the eyes of the chief of the intelligence headquarters.
