Chapter 608: Sacrifice
"It's not good for you to stay in the family army, run to participate in some free hunt, and be careful of being killed. You're with Judy, aren't you? ”
The two walked side by side in the corridor, and Alan looked out the window of the corridor. Outside the window, you can see the mysterious outer space, and the high-speed frigates suspended around them are dyed crimson by the sun. Leon stopped, leaned to the window and said, "I've been with the army for most of the past six months, it's time to exercise my abilities." A good commander is not just able to command an army. Besides, get rid of the family army, and those with ulterior motives will act. At that point, it's time to catch a big fish, right? ”
"Be careful that you can't catch the fish, and you become bait."
Leon laughed and slammed his fist on Allen's chest: "You dare to underestimate me." ”
"Looks like you're not making much progress." Alan shrugged.
"Good fellow, I'm arrogant right now. I've also heard about the fight between you and Reina, and Young Master Allen has condensed the projection before he is level twenty, and he does have arrogant capital. But Lao Tzu's fist is not a vegetarian, why don't we practice? ”
"Forget it, I'd better save my strength to slaughter more Cato or Gree giants. If you win a war and you don't have military merits, what are you doing here? ”
Leon said angrily, "It looks like you're going to win me." ”
"If it's a duel to the death, I'm sorry, yes." Alan calmly met Leon's gaze, and he was by no means unspeakable. With his current strength, below level twenty-five is no longer his opponent. No matter how fast Leon grows, he can't reach level twenty-five in just half a year, so Alan is still quite sure about this.
As if he knew Alan for the first time, Leon looked him up and down before saying, "You guy, when did you become so powerful." I still remember the first time we met, you were beaten by me. ”
Alan corrected him and said, "That time we were tied, tied. ”
"Well, it turns out that your kid's strength under the surface of the water has swelled to this point. Now even I am curious about what is on the Heavenly Star that has made you grow up so fast. But it's not a good thing to casually expose your strength, I heard that you and Major General Catherine looked very intimate before, and there are a lot of guys here who are worried about you. ”
There was a glint in Alan's eyes like a flying flame gliding by. said lightly: "Just let them come." As for Catherine, it's not what you think it is. ”
"You kid has a lot to tell." Leon shook his head and said, "Didn't Adele come with you this time?" ”
"She seems to be in the family army."
"I've heard that the Morson family has been getting close to the Gorett family lately."
Alan shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." ”
Leon turned to look out the window at the space and said, "The Gorett family has only been stationed in Babylon in the last hundred years, and for you Bethcord, they are a small family. It's not surprising that you don't know, but for nearly half a century, the Golett family has focused on the cultivation of family force. Now among the middle and lower class nobles, the army of this family can be said to be the most prosperous. Their army, the 'savage hunters', had such a great record that even a business-oriented gatekeeper like Mowson could hardly match. ”
Alan finally heard something, and according to Leon, if the Mowson family and Gorlett were in frequent contact, there was only one possibility. The two families plan to join forces, and the Mowson family naturally values each other's strength, and for Gorett. If you can climb an old family like Moson, it will be of great benefit to improve the social status of your own family.
What's more, the Mosen family has been in business for generations, and their wealth is far from comparable to ordinary gate valves. Even some families have to be compared to them. With their financial support, Goret has the opportunity to advance by leaps and bounds.
"Now that the army of Gorett has been merged with the Mossons, the savage hunters are in the hands of the Mossons. I heard that the reason why the Goret family made such a huge concession is that in addition to the previous contacts between the two families and the cooperation in some fields, the more important point is. The Grett family asked old Kate for marriage, but old Kate did not refuse, only saying that they would wait until after this war. This undoubtedly gave the Golett family a signal, and because of this, they made a big bet. ”
The savage hunters were merged into the Mosen family, and all the military exploits obtained naturally belonged to the Mosen family, which was undoubtedly a huge loss for the Gorett family. The Mowson family must come up with sufficient compensation, including the marriage. Alan frowned: "Who is the object of marriage?" ”
Leon smiled bitterly: "You should know, don't you?" ”
Of course Alan knows, who better to be a victim of this political deal than Adele? So the picture of that night is vivid again, the helpless girl, the hesitant Adele, and the self who made a promise.
Alan suddenly remembered that Adele probably knew something at the time, and even foresaw a fate that she could not escape. Perhaps because of this, she actively approached Alan and wanted to escape by marrying him. Although it may have been another way to escape, Alan did not agree. And Adele's choice to stay in the family army this time may be a tacit acquiescence to the upcoming fate.
"I didn't think old Mr. Kate would be a victim of her." When Alan said this, there was already a bit more awe-inspiring in his tone.
Leon sighed: "Old Kate likes Adele, but before he was a grandfather, he was the patriarch of the Mosen family. He has more than one Adele to consider. ”
"I've been on the Heavenly Star with her for so long, and I don't know anything about it, I'm really ...... Too much to ignore her. Alan gritted his teeth, and the fire in his eyes rose: "But no matter what, I promised Adele." As long as she is unwilling, even if she is an enemy of the Gorett family, I will keep her free. ”
Leon shook his head and said, "Aren't you too impulsive?" I'd love to call you stupid, but damn it, count me in. It's a big deal that I will bring the family out and crush Golett, Lao Tzu is a gentleman, what's wrong, who told me to have capital. ”
"You're going to have a kick in too?" Alan frowned and said, "I don't think you're in a very good situation right now. ”
"Adele is also a good friend of mine, and I certainly don't want to see her sad. In life, if you can't your mother vigorously according to your own ideas, you always think a lot about what fun is there. Leon grinned and said, "Like you said, Adele's freedom, let us protect it." ”
Although he smiled, his eyes were extremely solemn.
Far away on the other side of the distant star path, Earth.
It was night, and Babylon was shrouded in a soft night. The silver light of the bright moon passed through the attic window and fell on Adele's body. The girl was dressed in a ring uniform, which was a tactical uniform in the style of a military uniform, and several pieces of light and agile armor were stacked next to it. When needed, it can be equipped directly on the tactical suit and you can enter the battlefield.
Adele held her hair up in the air, tugging at her sleeve and wiping the parts of her sniper rifle at her feet. There are also two automatic pistols next to them, with goblins on their grips. Tomorrow is the time for the departure of the Mosen army, and Adele is ready to leave with the army. Even though it was getting late, she didn't feel sleepy, and simply got up to wipe her firearm and do the best check.
The attic is quiet, so quiet that it's easy to get cranky. Adele wiped her gun, but her thoughts flew thousands of miles away.
I don't know what happened to him. Adele's mind swept over Alan's face, and suddenly the movements in her hands slowed down a little. She shook her head and said softly to herself, "How can people think of you now, don't be sentimental, Adele." ”
Sophie, the maid who slept not far away, turned over and asked in a daze, "What did you say, Miss?" ”
"It's nothing, you go to sleep quickly."
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, Adele frowned, who else would come so late? Sophie struggled to get up from her bed and yawned to open the door. As soon as the door opened, a strong smell of alcohol poured outside. Sophie hadn't seen it clearly, and there was already an extra hand on her chest. The hand rubbed her breasts so hard that the maid couldn't help but let out a scream.
"What's the ghost called? Your lady is my person sooner or later, and you are no exception. But I didn't expect you to have such a figure, yes, or you can sleep with me at night. A man came through the door, grabbed Sophie and rubbed her breasts vigorously, and sniffed between the maid's neck for a while, before he raised his head and smiled and said, "Dear Adele, you really haven't slept yet." ”
"Hamm. Golett! Adele stood up suddenly, and said, "Let Sophie go, and then go back to where you came from." ”
"What a ferocious one, Miss Adele. But I like your temperament very much, and you see, old Mr. Kate has not objected to my father's request to-morrow. In this way, our wedding day is getting closer and closer. But I can't wait that long, tonight, just give you to me! ”
A young man named Hamm took Sophie by the hand, kicked the door shut, and walked towards Adele. Adele sneered, picked up the pistol on the ground and pointed at the man, "I advise you to stop." Don't look in the mirror, what are you, just because you want to get me? Jokes, even if it's with a dog, I won't take a fancy to you. ”
Hamm was furious, he was also the young man in the family. This time, the family handed over the army to the Mowson family, and one of the conditions attached was that he and Adele should be married. Old Kate did not respond positively to this question, but she did not obviously refuse, and was obviously under consideration. Tomorrow is on the list, and Hamm is also on the list of participants, and tonight he will stay at the Mowson house.
With a little bit of alcohol, he wanted to take the opportunity to cook raw rice with Adele, and save old Kate from regretting it. And this action has been approved by his father, who knows that Adele's poisonous tongue is so far. didn't give him face at all, and even pointed out that he was not even as good as a dog. Hamm was young and vigorous, and he couldn't swallow it.
