"call"

Amid the huge whistle of wind, a luxurious spacecraft with dark green body and smooth appearance entered the atmosphere of Mercury.

When the spacecraft reached the atmospheric stratosphere, two small warships appeared, following the sides of the spacecraft, looking like the spacecraft's followers.

The dark green spacecraft kept speeding and did not change its flight direction, landing straight towards the ground.

When the altitude of the spacecraft reached more than 500 meters, the small warship quietly retreated, and the spacecraft began to slow down and slowly lower the altitude.

Below the spaceship is a vast sea of ​​forests, with mist swaying in the forest and lush trees, which look like a large piece of dark green silk.

What’s even more peculiar is that a large number of interference signals suddenly appeared in the environment at a height of about 800 meters above the forest.

After flying for a while, the main control of the luxury spacecraft issued an alarm: "Attention! Pay attention! Loss contact with the Mercury positioning tower, and the spacecraft positioning system fails."

A young black-haired man sat in the cockpit of the spaceship. He was no one else. It was Chu Muping, the third prince of the Empire who escaped from the imperial capital. After hearing the alarm, he calmly entered a signal frequency band, took out an amber crystal as big as a thumb and placed it on the console.

"Search for this frequency band, and after finding it, activate the quantum password."

"Yes, the command is being executed."

About 3 seconds later, the main control brain spoke again: "The new base tower has been discovered, the current location has been determined, the landing location has been determined, and the landing location has been determined, and the landing has begun."

The spacecraft lowered its height all the way, and soon it dropped to only 100 meters. At this height, the terrain undulations became very obvious. The canopy of many tall trees was even 100 meters higher, but the speed of the spacecraft still maintained an ultra-high speed of three times the speed of sound.

Seeing the tree canopy, hillsides, river valleys, and luxury spacecraft constantly changing orbits. Looking from a distance, the spacecraft seemed to be speeding against the ground. Chu Muping in the spacecraft was also shocked: "Who has set the route, it's really deadly."

After flying for thrillingly for a full 3 minutes, the spacecraft finally began to slow down. A large area of ​​tall and dense woods appeared in front of them. Their dense canopies were connected together, forming a natural green arch more than 200 meters high.

The luxury spacecraft just plunged into it, and inside the arch, there was a huge landing platform. Next to the platform were several buildings that were almost integrated with the woods. On the balcony of one of the buildings, there were two people standing.

Chu Muping pulled the spacecraft closer to observe the sight and found that he was very familiar with the two of them. One was his sister, and the other was Zhang Yuan, the governor of Hayue who had previously covered him to escape from the imperial capital.

"This guy is moving so fast!" Chu Muping said in his mind.

When he fled from the imperial capital and entered the Nightingale Nebula, Zhang Yuan fought with the Iowa Star Belt. When he completed the ultra-long-range jump, traveled through more than 2,000 light years, and rushed to the outer space of Heyue Mercury, the time was no more than 5 hours.

With his understanding of the speed of interstellar travel, this speed is already amazing.

What made him even more shocked was that before he left, he had detected a signal of the broken asterisk, that is, Wang Qianyuan took action, and Zhang Yuan was not only safe and sound, but also came back faster than him. This method was really unfathomable.

For the first time, Chu Muping felt a strong sense of awe for Zhang Yuan. He had been the commander of the Gray-Clothed Guard for many years and had never seen such a powerful person.

At this time, the spacecraft had completed landing, and Chu Muping stood up and walked all the way to the hatch.

The cabin door has been opened. Outside the door, Zhang Yuan and his sister Chu Mulian, who were just on the balcony, were already waiting next to the landing platform.

Seeing his brother who returned safely, Chu Mulian called out "Brother", then ran over and threw himself into Chu Muping's arms.

Chu Muping hugged his sister tightly, feeling infinitely emotional.

Now, he can be said to have lost everything. The prince's identity and the commander of the Gray Guard have nothing to do with him. All the glory is gone, but his sister is the same as before.

He suddenly realized the huge mistake he made. For the past six months, he had only had the throne and power in his mind. He had been intriguing with others, but he completely left his beloved sister behind and even regarded her as a tool for fighting for power.

A huge feeling of guilt surged into his heart. He patted his sister's back gently and whispered: "I'm sorry, my brother was wrong."

Chu Mulian's eyes were red. She raised her head and looked at her brother, smiling and said, "Brother, everything will be fine."

"Well." Chu Muping nodded, but sighed in his heart: "How could it be better? From the moment he returned to Heyue, he was destined to be unable to stand on the interstellar stage. In the future, my best fate is to be a rich idle person."

After a few more words between the brothers and sisters, Chu Muping walked towards Zhang Yuan who was waiting aside: "Brother Zhang, thanks to your help this time, otherwise I would have been under house arrest by my father. When my eldest or second brother took office, I would probably live to the end."

Zhang Yuan smiled faintly: "No need to thank me. If you really want to thank me, thank your sister."

"Huh?" Chu Muping was stunned. He looked at his sister beside him. At this time, he realized that his sister was actually wearing the black blue uniform of the Heyue army. Judging from the insignia on the uniform, she was actually a lieutenant colonel. Her rank was not low, especially her sister was only fifteen years old this year.

"What's going on?" Chu Muping asked in confusion. He was really not concerned about his sister during this period, and he even removed all the eyeliners on Mercury, so he was completely unaware of this.

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Don't stand here, please, and I will explain in detail."

Chu Muping had no choice but to nod, followed Zhang Yuan, and entered the villa in the forest with his sister.

When they arrived at the villa hall, the three of them sat down, Zhang Yuan ordered the intelligent butler to bring the drinks, and began to talk in detail about Chu Mulian's joining the Heyue army.

After he finished speaking, he smiled and said, "Mulian promised to serve me, but the condition is that in a critical moment, I will personally save your life."

Chu Muping was still a little confused: "Salary for you? Sorry, I still don't understand it very much. Moreover, Mu Lian is the princess. At this moment, it is not appropriate to show up in public. Once someone discovers, He Yue will probably have big trouble!"

Zhang Yuan laughed, picked up the light fruit wine in front of him and sipped it, then looked at Chu Mulian sitting on the left.

Chu Mulian pondered for a few seconds, and suddenly stretched out her left hand. At the back of her white left hand, there was a silver badge printed on it. The badge was engraved with very complex patterns, and there were faint light spots as big as needle tips in the pattern that kept flowing rapidly, which looked very strange.

What kind of person is Chu Muping? In terms of his extensive knowledge, he can definitely rank among the top ten in the interstellar world. With just one look, his vision becomes extremely complicated: "Level 1 battleship command secret key, sister, are you now the supreme commander of the fleet?"

Chu Mulian withdrew his hand and shook his head: "It's not formal yet. I am now a reserve commander. In another half a year, I will have full authority after my warship is built. As for now, I can only watch in the active fleet and learn command experience with the active commander."

Even if it is not formal, even if it will only have real command power after half a year, my sister was less than 16 years old at that time. A 15-year-old fleet commander did not mention her age, experience, and just talked about Chu Mulian's identity as a princess, how could Zhang Yuan dare to give a fleet to her for command?

As far as he knows, the entire Hatsuki currently has only 8 main fleets.

"Zhang Yuan, I don't understand. Although my sister is smart, she is not strong enough and is young, so she may not be able to take on a big responsibility."

For some reason, when he said this, Chu Muping felt a little jealous.

Zhang Yuan smiled: "It seems that you don't know your sister."

Chu Muping calmed down his emotions and began to objectively analyze the situation: "Okay. Even if my sister has enough ability, how can you ensure that she will not be discovered by the imperial capital? Once her identity is exposed, my father will be furious and sent troops until then. How can Heyue resist the imperial capital fleet? You must understand that this time you can make a big fuss in the imperial capital because my father is not prepared. If the war really starts, Heyue will face the Imperial Alliance, more than 30 provinces, plus the power of the imperial capital itself, and there are hundreds of fleets alone! How do you resist these forces?! Do you rely on eight fleets?"

Zhang Yuan smiled and said nothing.

Chu Mulian, who was standing beside him, said, "Brother, I can guarantee that the confidentiality of my identity is not a problem at all. Also, although the empire has more than 30 provinces, it may not be all on the side of the imperial capital. If you say that He Yue only has 8 fleets, that is also old news. In fact, He Yue currently has 16 fleets, and He Yue has a big backer behind him!"

"What's the situation?" Chu Muping blinked and asked again: "What's the backer? Is it the Om Empire? Or the City of Sky?"

Chu Mulian spread his hands: "I can't say this. Anyway, judging from the current situation, if a war really starts, He Yue may not lose."

"I can't even say it?" Chu Muping was a little shocked.

Chu Mulian looked embarrassed: "Brother, this is Heyue's secrets. I am now a Heyue officer. There are confidentiality regulations in the army, so I can only say this."

"Okay." Chu Muping felt unhappy, but he was also a commander. He knew that military law was difficult to violate. After a few seconds of silence, he looked at Zhang Yuan: "Governor Zhang, so you have already prepared to go to war with the imperial capital and the Chu family?"

"I'm afraid this is my only way to live." Zhang Yuan smiled slightly, and then asked back: "The royal family cannot tolerate a god of war who once betrayed. I'm right, Brother Chu?"

"call"

Chu Muping breathed a long sigh and nodded: "Father really can't tolerate you."

He looked at his sister: "There is another last question, the Dark Age, have you told Governor Zhang?"

Chu Mulian nodded: "Governor Zhang already knows that he has developed a warship that can navigate the dark nebula, in fact, the main purpose of Chaos Bronze."

As soon as these words were said, Chu Muping was shocked: "Governor Zhang, are you actually going to go deep into the nebula?"

"What, are there any problems?" Zhang Yuan asked with a smile.

Chu Muping shook his head repeatedly: "Of course there is a problem, the problem is very big. You must know that you are not the first to do this. Many people have done it before, but no one has ever succeeded. All investments have been wasted, and thousands of adventurers have sacrificed their lives for it. Entering the Dark Nebula has long been proven to be a dead end."

"It's up to people to do things, and the failure of the predecessors to do it does not mean that the future generations are not able to do it." Zhang Yuan's expression did not change at all, and even his smile did not decrease at all.

As soon as he heard this, Chu Muping knew that he could not convince the governor. Indeed, how could he shake the will of the God of War in a few simple words?

He sighed again, was silent for five or six seconds, and asked, "Then how are you going to arrange for me?"

"Just live here, it's very secret." Zhang Yuan pointed to the villa.

"How long does it take?" Chu Muping asked again.

"I don't know much about it. Maybe one year, maybe ten years, to see the changes in the interstellar situation."

This answer obviously did not satisfy Chu Muping. He looked at his sister and said carefully: "I asked myself that I am very familiar with interstellar affairs. Now I am also a wanted criminal in the Empire. Ha Yue is my only way out. Maybe I can help you."

"No need." Zhang Yuan simply refused. Seeing Chu Muping's face unhappy, he added: "It's not that he is worried about you, but because you are not capable enough. All the generals under my command are talented people selected from millions of people. If you go, you will drag you down."

Chu Mulian was afraid that his brother would not be able to stand it, so he hurriedly said, "Brother, you can be my consultant. I have a lot of things I don't know to ask you."

"Okay." Chu Muping had no choice. He is no longer the third prince. It would be great to be able to live. As for the others, it would be not too late to talk about it in the future.

After settling down Chu Muping, Zhang Yuan attacked Chu Mulian, and the two of them stood up and left.

After walking out of the villa in the forest, Chu Mulian suddenly said, "My brother has been in a position for a long time and has been accustomed to power. I am afraid it will be difficult to calm down. If my brother causes any trouble in the future, I hope the governor will be tolerant."

Zhang Yuan smiled: "There are many people who are unwilling to be lonely. He is not the first one. I can handle it and have experience."

Chu Mulian was stunned for a moment, not very clear about what this said.

Zhang Yuan continued to walk forward: "Your Highness, please don't think too much. This time I won't be hiding the matter for long. At that time, I will rely on your intelligence."

His voice was very calm, as if the coming war was just a breeze.

Chu Mulian looked at Zhang Yuan's calm back and thought that he had created the imperial capital alone and faced Wang Qianyuan alone. Not only did he save his brother, but he also returned safely, as if nothing had happened. Compared with him, even the God of War for the Protective Kingdom who shone with great light and force over the interstellar force, Wang Qianyuan, was much inferior.

She felt a little confused and a little confused for a moment.

"Stop being dazed." Zhang Yuan's voice came over again.
