Chapter 772: Choice
"That woman looks like she's looking at you!" Catherine frowned and said softly.
Alan smiled: "Look at what I do, you are too sensitive, people just take a look." ”
"That's not right." Lucy shook her head and said, "Teacher Shagelin is indeed staring at you, what is she thinking!" ”
Could it be that she is also interested in Ellen? But they've only met for the first time, and if so, what a shameless woman! Catherine looked at Allen, then at Shaglin, and said in her heart.
Lucy winked at Shaglin, and said to herself, what are you doing! What's the matter with your eyes being so bright, it's normal that you shouldn't be looking like you normally, Teacher Charglin!
I always feel that the atmosphere is not quite right. Alan thought with a wry smile. The two girls on his left and right had sharp eyes and exuded inexplicable hostility, like two cats with their tails stepping on them, who would pounce at any moment.
Fortunately, the fog resurfaced in Charglin's eyes, like flowing clouds covering the sun, and the sea blue eyes became hazy again.
Envoys from the passage continued to pour out of the Adahuaxing, and this time the fleet visited the Bloodgate Fortress, in addition to Metalon's several people who came to visit their princess, there were also various representatives, hoping to negotiate military and even commercial cooperation with the Federation on this war. Therefore, there were a lot of representative envoys who came together this time, dozens of men and women, and Allen was dazzled.
Adahuastar is a planet rich in handsome men and beautiful women, those envoys are handsome for men and beautiful for women. But in terms of outstanding appearance, they are naturally not as good as Chaglin. She stood in the midst of the crowd, her intense figure like a red rose inserted in a field of lilacs, so that people could see her at a glance.
At this time, Lucy, who was standing next to her, suddenly clenched her fists. Alan noticed that she was a little nervous and couldn't help but glance at her. Lucy smiled back, but only a little reluctantly. At this time, another Adahua came out of the starship passage, and it was a tall man. There was a serious face under the short brilliant blond hair, and a pair of rimless glasses perched on a high nose. Beneath the pursed lips is a well-groomed mustache trimmed in a "W" shape that runs along the chin to the base of the ear. Despite his young age, he looks strangely mature.
He was covered with a white robe with a distinctly military style. A ring of gold straps hangs from the epaulettes on both sides, and a row of gold buckles on each placket, connected by small gold chains. The inside is a black underlining, and a white scarf spits out from the neckline. The three pure colors of black, white and gold are matched with a noble and solemn feeling on him. He held a thick book in his hand, and spit out the tail of the bookmark from the gap in the page. As he stepped out of the passageway, his gaze swept away. After a moment, he found Lucy and stopped.
From afar, he nodded to Lucy. There was also a hint of a smile on that serious face.
A few more people came out of the passage, and all the envoys of Idahuaxing's visit this time arrived. Lu Sen officially greeted the officials of the fortress, and the flow of people from the two sides converged, and what they said was nothing more than some official words. Most of them are polite words, but when it comes to cooperation, when it comes to the negotiation table, it is a different scene. It's just that the negotiation scene comparable to the battlefield, Allen didn't have a chance to see it. He was glad it was, after all, that type of war was not his forte.
Metalon led a few people to talk politely with Russon, and then walked straight to Allen's side. Catherine reached out and pinched Allen, but she didn't know what she meant, and turned away. As a major general of the Federation, she is also obliged to accompany those dignitaries at this moment, even if she does not want to. So only Alan and Lucy were left, and Alan saw that among the people who came with Metalon, there was also the tall and serious man.
"I'm glad to see you're still alive, Your Highness." Metalon opened her hands and greeted Lucy.
Lucy left Alan behind and ran over, hugging the marquis, who had almost watched her grow up: "Me too, teacher." Are you okay? ”
"Marquis Metalon just killed two Dark Titans before he came, do you think his health will be bad?" Xia Gelin next to her smiled, her voice is very magnetic and rhythmic, which is pleasant to hear.
Lucy let go of Metalon and bowed to Chaglin. Charglyn gently pulled up her skirt and saluted the princess in return. Then Lucy hugged Xia Gelin: "Teacher, you are here too, it's really a pleasure." ”
"Really? But I didn't seem to be happy with you just now. Chargling smiled.
"Why, teacher, you must have read it wrong."
Charglin smiled and her eyebrows curled: "My eyes never missee anything. ”
"Yes, yes, you're Charglyn at dusk." Lucy said with a kissed face.
Charglin patted her on the head, looking doting. Although she is only a few years older than Lucy, for Lucy, whose biological mother died early, Chaglin is the one who plays the role of sister and mother. In Chaglin, she found dependence and love, and after those two identities, she became a mentor in art.
The next few people are royalty, and Lucy is much more cold towards them. Alan next to him could feel Lucy's coldness and even disgust towards the royal family in his eyes. Finally, the tall man stepped forward and took Lucy's hand to kiss her. Lucy pulled her hand back in a panic like a frightened bird, took two steps back and said, "Link, this is not the royal court, these etiquettes can be waived." ”
The man she called Link was visibly stunned before he nodded, "Do as you command, Your Highness." ”
He stood up straight, with a height of 1.9 meters, and had a rare burly body among the ordinary Idahua stars who looked slender. When he gets closer, it naturally gives people an invisible sense of oppression. When he looked at Allen, the feeling of oppression was even more pronounced. Link looked at Allen, but said, "Your Highness, it's too dangerous for you to stay alone in the fortress of the Federation, and I heard that the alien alliance attacked here not long ago. Your Highness, as the emperor's princess, you really shouldn't stay here any longer. This time, I would like to ask you to go back with me. ”
Lucy tensed her little face: "I'm not going back, I like it here." I have friends here and I'm having fun fighting with them. And, they'll protect me too! ”
"Fighting?" Link frowned: "Your Highness, I can't let you stay in this way, please go back with me." ”
"Presumptuous! Do I need you to interfere in my life? ”
Link didn't let it go: "Why not." Your Highness, I am ......"
"Link!" Metalon suddenly let out a low sigh: "Remember what you promised me!" ”
Link's eyes moved, and he took two steps back: "Of course, I promised that I wouldn't violate that incident." ”
Alan looked at them strangely, stepped forward, and stood beside Lucy: "This Mr. Link, please rest assured, I will be responsible for Lucy's safety." ”
Link raised his eyebrows: "Are you responsible?" Dare I ask who you are? ”
"My name is Alan, and I'm a friend of Lucy."
"Alan." Link nodded: "I've heard of you, and Your Highness stayed because of you." But on what basis do you make such a guarantee, do you know? If the Cato knew that His Highness was in this fortress, they would not have sent only tens of thousands of troops. When the time comes, it may be 100,000, or even hundreds of thousands, that an army will swarm in, and dare to ask what ability you have to protect Your Highness in such a situation? ”
"With your nineteenth-level strength? I'm sorry, but I don't mean to belittle you, it's just that it is. ”
Alan frowned, although this man had some truth in what he said, he gave people the impression of being aggressive, and there was a bit of subtle hostility in his words. It is clear that this bit of hostility is directed against him.
"I am also a friend of His Highness, a friend who grew up together. Although I don't have the superb combat power of Marquis Metalon, I still have the level of twenty-four levels. In addition to that, I am also an earl. Under me, there is an army subordinate to me. So when it comes to protection, whether it's status or strength, I'm more qualified than you. Mr. Allen, if you really think about Your Highness, you should persuade her to go back with me. ”
Lucy raised her eyebrows, "That's enough, Link!" Please pay attention to your words, even my father has not interfered in my life, and you have no right to decide whether I go or not! If you're still a friend of me, don't say it again. ”
Link looked at her solemnly, and nodded after a while: "We will stay here for a while, Your Highness, please think about it." Also, the Emperor is not intrusive, he just wants to give you more time. About this, I am well aware. ”
Lucy clenched her fists and trembled slightly. Suddenly, a warm palm enveloped it, melting the uneasiness in her heart. Alan smiled gently at her, looked at Link and said, "What Mr. Link said is very reasonable, I do have a lot of shortcomings now. But I am confident that in the near future, I will surpass yours and most people. It's not that I'm arrogant, it's that I have to. ”
"Oh?" Link looked at him visibly not believing what Allen said.
"Because if I don't, I'm not in a position to make a request to the Ophassic Great. Ask him to bring his favorite daughter, Lucy...... Marry me! ”
Everyone was stunned, especially Lucy. She was surprised at first, then a look of joy in her eyes. Link was shocked, followed by angry, but he was restrained and didn't roar. Just shook his head: "I admire your self-confidence, but on this point, I'm sure you'll never be able to do it." You can believe it or not, you can try. But in the end, you will find that everything is in vain. ”
"That's not right, Link." Chaglin unexpectedly stood on Alan's side, and she smiled indifferently: "Even though I claim to have seen the wrong glance from the end, in fact, there are many pieces of the future that I have seen, and when the time comes, they have all undergone subtle changes. The universe is full of changes, and there is never anything absolute. There are many times when the will is enough to determine the future, depending on how you choose. ”
"Do you choose to rise up, or choose to give up ......"
