Chapter 1325: my proud

Roddy looked at the night outside the window, which was so dark and deep that night.
Looking out the window, watching, the man's heart floated back to the night a few days ago.
Since the completion of Ugalle Castle, it has survived hundreds of years of wind and rain, but it has never been as quiet as this moment. Roddy was standing on the square in front of the old castle, where guests used to be in front of the lights. When the castle held a banquet, it was called a lively event. The workers, chefs, guards, and their families who served this castle got together, and there were more than two thousand people, and they just made up a small town of Levin.
This is the brilliance of the castle, the brilliance of Beskode.
But now, the castle is dim, with ten rooms and nine empty spaces. Not only is the old castle like that, but the town of Levin is also empty.
all gone.
Roddy dismissed the last group of Beskod before Mobitt did not talk to the heads of the families through a video conference. The family guards were all taken by him to the old and weak women and children in the town away. Not only the Ugaller Fort, but in fact, other families also sent family members to the surface, but Beskod did not do so simply. That's it completely.
Only Roddy, Huck, Butler Heising and Hedrick are still in the castle. It was a big castle, and now there were only four people left, even the cigar that Roddy was smoking on his mouth, and the flames of the cigarette butts were full of loneliness.
The sound of footsteps rang untimely at this time.
Roddy frowned, but it was Horn and Anna who came in through the gate of the castle.
"Father?" Roddy strode forward.
Horn, leaning on a cane, looked at the darkened castle and said, "Since our ancestors built the castle, this castle has never been so bleak."
Roddy sighed, "I should discuss with you first."
"What to discuss?" Horn laughed and stretched out his hand to pat Roddy's shoulder and said: "You are now the head of the family. I will raise my hands in favor of any decision. You don't need to discuss anything with me. Roddy, Horn's The age has passed, and now is the age of your young people. You are here to wait, I will go in and meet the remaining few people, and then"
"Let us let go of our hands and feet and do it."
Horn strode into the main building of the castle, and a moment later, there were exclamation and depressed crying from the building.
Roddy grinned silly, jumped to the front of a speeding car and sat down without any image of the owner. He also pulled open the two buttons on the neckline by the way, then looked at Anna and said, "You won't go back?"
"The master also told me to go back, but Murphy has moved to a complete place, and now I need me more." Anna wrapped her arms around her chest, then lowered her head and said: "I am destined not to be a qualified mother."
Roddy smiled and said: "I'm not a qualified father. I haven't disciplined Reina as a kid. But now I am glad that the kid is not on the earth. I heard that he was going to come back. I held him down."
"Won't Fording come back?"
"He wants to come back. I didn't agree." Roddy shrugged. "Someone has to keep the escape route."
Anna said "um", and didn't talk any more. At this moment Horne came out of the castle. Huck and Heising followed him. Horn gestured to Anna: "You send them away, Anna, and you will leave their safety to you."
"Master!" How would Anna know that if she agreed, she would never return to Babylon.
Horn shook his head, not allowing her to refuse. Anna could only sigh, and took the two of Huck on the speeding car and left. Roddy glanced at one of the lighted rooms in the castle, frowned and said, "Where is he?"
"I originally wanted him to leave and leave the family completely. What he wants to do in the future is none of my business." Horn's expression became complicated: "But he doesn't want to leave. In that case, I won't force him. ."
Roddy thought for a while and said, "The guy Hedrick, after all, wants you to pay more attention to him. From childhood to adulthood, no matter where he is, he has to stand in the most dazzling position. Because in There, you can see him at a glance. Just"
Horn glanced at the window that was still lit, then sat on the car cover like Roddy, and used the crutch with the famous knife Qiuyan hidden in the castle, and said: "When I was young, I always thought I could do anything. Yes. I am the most severe to you, because you are the eldest son, I think you should bear everything, and even the burdens of younger brothers and sisters have to be picked up by you. So I am the harshest to you, and all the most dangerous things Leave it to you. Roddy, have you annoyed me about it?"
Roddy smiled awkwardly, nodded and said, "Sometimes there are such thoughts, especially when you are a little kid. At that time, I was thinking about father, you are partial, let alone the little sister and the fourth. Even the second child. It’s also better than me, so the third child will have a hard time with me."
"I'm really partial." Horn admitted: "You are the eldest son, and the third child's talent is beyond my surprise. Don't look at him silently, in fact, he broke through the 30th level earlier than you."
"Damn, I knew that kid must be hidden." Roddy slapped his lap on his thigh: "I said there is no reason why I have already passed 30th level, and that kid is still spinning around 27th and 8th level. , The hiding is so deep, the third child."
"The third child is always inhumane, but there are some things he doesn't say, but he will do it. This is the opposite of the fourth child, the fourth child" Horn suddenly opened his palm to Roddy: " Give me one."
Roddy took out a cigar with a painful expression on his face and said, "This is the last one. Smoke it slowly."
Horn couldn't help tapping his big head lightly with a cane: "I became stingy after becoming the owner of the house, you bastard."
Roddy giggled.
Horn took a sip of his cigar and spit out the smoke ring: "I have placed too many wishes on the fourth, especially after Lanni has left. I almost put my expectations of Lanni on him. If the fourth child will get to this point today, in addition to his own distorted ambitions, I also have a responsibility. It is precisely because I expected too much of him that he had a certain illusion."
"Some kind of illusion that I am my father's favorite child"
"Father." Roddy wanted to comfort the old man, but he didn't know what to say when the words came, so he could only pat his thigh.
Horn smiled and shook Roddy's big hand, and continued: "You also know that I love Lanny the most. Because she is the last baby your mother left for me. Lanny is not less than three years old, you The mother left. At that time she still didn't even understand what it meant to lose her mother. Every time I saw her immature face, I couldn't help crying, especially when she woke up in the middle of the night crying to find her mother But she doesn’t see her mother anymore, poor child"
"But I can't cry, or even grieve. Because I am the owner of the house, I must be as hard as steel so that our enemies won't take advantage of it. So you are all afraid of me. At that time I always had a straight face. Only at night, when you are all asleep, can I smile when I peek at you secretly. I swear more than once that I will use all my strength to protect Lanny and protect you. But in the end, Lanny still left me. , And then quietly left this world on a night that I didn't know."
"She's still so young, she should have lived longer and longer than me. When I got Alan back, I blamed myself more than once. If I wasn't so proud then, if I was willing to let go of a little dignity, now , Whether the ending will be different. But ah" Horn raised his head to look at the deep sky: "It's all over. The past, no matter how regretful it is, can't be undone."
"Father, don't say it." Roddy squeezed the old man hard and said, "The little girl won't hate you, and Alan is the same. That kid loved you from his heart when he thought you were killed. His sadness, his I can feel the anger clearly. With such a son, it can be seen that Lanny, as a mother, also respects and loves you from my heart!"
Horn took a deep breath and nodded: "Yes, whether Lenny or you, or Huck, you are all my pride, eternal pride."
Roddy trembled all over, and he had to restrain himself desperately to avoid the surging emotions in his chest. Then, an inexplicable sense of oppression fell on him.
Horn's eyes turned from enthusiasm to coldness, and he snorted coldly: "Here."
Roddy looked up.
The night sky was still gloomy, and the heavy lead cloud had only darkness except darkness. But in the darkness, there was a faint low howling sound. Suddenly a blaze of light flashed in the darkness, and then the fire became more and more intense, and finally a stream of fire burst out of the clouds, across the night sky, and slanted toward the distance.
It was a downed fighter plane.
More flames lit up in the clouds, and the flames dispersed the darkness. Even if people are on the ground, they can still see the lead cloud covering the entire night sky, and there are constant fires and explosions one after another.
Suddenly a hurricane blowing from nowhere blew away the clouds~EbookFREE.me~ Roddy’s pupils contracted, and above the sea of ​​clouds, the battleships of both sides came and went, the sky and rain pierced and passed, every second The scene of the airship exploding was so faithfully reflected in Roddy's eyes. It turned out that when they were chatting, the battle between the Nirm and the Earth Federation had already been staged at high altitude. And above that high-altitude battlefield, a shadow is expanding.
That is the star destroyer of the Nirm!
The Star Destroyer, which is almost as large as the entire Babylon, is entering the interior of the planet, so there is a circle of fire around the shadow. It is a vision caused by the starship through atmospheric friction. Seeing that it is coming aggressively, it is completely aimed at Babylon. of.
The enemy and our warships fighting life and death in the high air, whether they wished or not, had to stay far away from the orbit of the star destroyer. Otherwise, there is no need for the Star Destroyer to fire, and the advancing airflow alone is enough to make the battleship fall out of control. At this time, all weapon platforms on Babylon have entered the charging stage, and the rising energy aura is so huge that even ordinary people can feel it.
Of course, there are no civilians on Babylon now, and what remains is not the army, but the strong men of the big families!
