At this time, the peculiar roar of the take-off ship's engine sounded above everyone's heads. A small airship painted with the emblem of the Queen of Roses hovered over Gubao, and then slowly fell into the open space. Adele didn't have the thought of quarreling with Regis immediately, her heart thumped so hard that she even pinched the corner of her skirt nervously.
Alan is finally here!
The roar of the engine was faint, and finally the blue flame at the tail was completely extinguished. The cabin door of the airship clicked softly, moved outward, and then hung down toward the ground to form a deck. The figure in the slightly dim cabin swayed, and a figure came out first. The broken silver hair was so bathed in the Babylonian sun, flowing with dazzling luster.
Adele heard her heart beat hard.
It was Allen who stepped off the spaceship first. He has not seen each other for two years, and he has matured a lot. After experiencing the test of the flames of war, those ruby-like eyes will light up with a piercing light from time to time, like a sharp blade out of a sheath, chilling all the people who touch them. He is also taller, if it weren't for the faint childishness of a young man on his face, he would be no different from a young man of seventeen or eighteen.
Seeing the people in the clearing, Alan's eyes turned soft, diminishing the sharp edge. He strode off the spaceship and walked towards the crowd with arms outstretched: "I'm back."
Horn laughed and greeted him: "Ellen, you have grown taller, grandpa..."
At the end of his speech, he suddenly hugged Alan firmly. With Horn, he hadn't felt such a strong hug for a long time. There was a lot to say about being hugged by Allen, but in the end he only uttered one sentence: "Welcome home, Allen."
Alan let go of Horn, knowing that he had just made an impulse, and now a little embarrassed: "Sorry, grandpa. I..."
"No, I really like the hug just now, it's more direct than any language." Horne smiled faintly.
Allen nodded and gave the butler Heising the same powerful hug. Haising patted him on the shoulder and said, "Master has become stronger."
Then stepped away, giving Alan to the person who greeted him later.
"Allen! Let's fight, I've been waiting for this day for a long time." Seeing Allen, Regis yelled.
Seeing him holding the sword seriously, Allen smiled and said, "Not today. Let's go another day, don't cry for mercy then."
Regis replied: "It's hard to say who will be crying then."
Jin Liancheng came out at this time. The young man of the oriental nobleman wore a long gown with wide sleeves, quite ancient. He pulled Ellen over and smiled and said, "It's great to see you come back. I'm really afraid that you will be killed by the sword demon."
"Is Leon back?" Allen asked.
Jin Liancheng shook his head and said, "You go to the Pluto star only ten hours a day, so you come back earlier. The planet Leon went to has the same time flow as the earth, so it is also two years, but he will be late. I will be back later."
Seeing a trace of worry drifting in Jin Liancheng's eyes, Allen asked in a deep voice, "Is Leon in trouble?"
"It's hard to say, in the last call, he seemed to have broken with Paul's brother. I don't know what the result will be. It's not time to talk about this. You have a good rest today, and we will get together in the twilight tomorrow night." Jin Liancheng smiled faintly. With a flick of his wide sleeves, he backed away with his hands: "See you soon, Adele, she missed you a lot during the two years you haven't been there. She just missed my ears."
"What are you talking about! Fuck... Damn, I'll settle the account with you again." Adele, who had already had an octave voice, suddenly remembered her appearance as a lady today, and could only lower her voice and stare at Jin Liancheng with hatred. Then he looked at Alan.
Allen's eyes lit up.
Adele is wearing a gorgeous black and white dress today. The dress designed by a famous artist is simple and noble. She appeared more beautiful than two years ago, and her curving breast became the most eye-catching focus of her whole body under the ingenious design of the dress. In particular, Adele’s brown hair was rolled up high, and she wore a delicate necklace on her snow-white neck. The ruby named "Fairy Tears" on the necklace was falling on the white chest, making people think It is impossible to look away.
Allen showed a row of snow-white teeth, as if carrying the sunshine in the sky, showing a warm smile: "Adele, how are you?"
Adele's face was blushing, and she was usually witty, but at this moment she stammered: "I'm fine, Ai, Allen... how about you?"
"I……"
A head suddenly appeared behind Allen, and two golden pony tails immediately jumped into Adele's black and white eyes. She stared at a tall girl with a stunned body holding Ellen's arm intimately, and then smiled and said, "Is this Ellen your friend too? Quickly introduce me to him."
Adele stood on the spot like petrified immediately.
After a while, he suddenly roared: "Who is this? Alan, you bastard, didn't you go to Pluto? Why did you bring back a woman of unknown origin!"
A certain "unknown" woman replied: "Who's unknown, you short!"
"Dwarf...short?!" Adele finally revealed her true colors and exclaimed with her teeth and claws: "You old woman, think you can pretend to be cute with two ponytails? I want to tear off your hypocritical face !"
"A handful of... age!" Obviously these four words are extremely lethal to Lucy, and the queen of Idahua star almost burned the girl in front of her with flames from her mouth.
"calm!"
"calm!"
Allen and Jin Liancheng quickly pulled the two angry girls away, so they had a good welcome party, which became a little messy.
Horn and Hessing smiled and stood aside, looking at these energetic young people.
Yu Haising greeted Lucy, Adele and others to rest in the castle. A small welcome banquet will be held in the castle at noon, and the participants will be limited to a few people in the family and Allen’s friends. As for Alan, they went to the study with Horn.
Allen and Horne briefly recounted their experiences on Pluto in the past two years. When they heard Ruson used almost impounding them in the Shadow Fortress, Horne hummed heavily, obviously to Lu Sen's approach is extremely dissatisfied. After Allen finished speaking, Horn sighed: "A lot of things have happened in Babylon in the past two years when you were away."
Several major events did happen in Babylon.
First, last year, several surface administrative regions openly announced that they rejected federal management. They formed an alliance called Freedom Gate. After repeated negotiations between the Federation and Freedom Gate failed, war was declared. This has a great impact on President Mobit. If this matter cannot be handled within a short period of time, it may also affect the next presidential election.
However, Freedom Gate is not so easy to solve. The elements of their alliance are very vengeful. In addition to some officials from the original administrative district, some declining nobles have joined them. Although these nobles no longer have strong strength, their talents in other areas have a profound impact on Freedom Gate.
After the Federation decided to resolve the matter by means of war, Freedom Gate responded quickly. They said they would fight for it, but they also refused to war because that would bring greater disasters to people on other surfaces. This response has undoubtedly won the support of people in other administrative regions, and taking advantage of this momentum, Freedom Gate has vigorously promoted and incited more people to join their groups.
In this way, if the Federation starts a tough war, it will only push itself to the cusp of the storm and become a target of public criticism. It can be seen from this that this wave will not calm down in a short time, and the contradiction between the surface and the floating island has completely erupted through this sound.
The second one is related to the over-active situation of the seven powerful clans in the Yodon star field in recent years. The Nirm and Kidders continue to attack the interstellar defense line, so the Federation has to increase its military budget to meet the needs of the interstellar defense. The war on the Interstellar Defense not only affects the federal government, but also affects major families. The most obvious point is the significant increase in taxes in the past two years.
Under the pressure of aliens, Mobit also tried to smooth out the contradictions between the old and the new parties, prompting them to start initial cooperation. But it is not Mobit that plays a key role here, but Windsor Bello. After the front line reported that General Greedy Wolf bombarded and killed the Kidd strongman Silver Spider Sidi, General Kaprow, who had been evasive of the old and new two-party cooperation, finally had a response.
His golden lion will allocate a part of its troops to the interstellar defense line to help Sirius strengthen its defense. If that's all there is to it, the key lies in Caprow's statement that the legions heading to the interstellar defense line are fully commanded by Windsor Bello.
This is undoubtedly a signal.
With Caprow’s obvious hint, the diehards of the old party have changed ~EbookFREE.me~ Among them, Bethkod's Mowu factory has benefited the most. The number of orders in the new quarter has doubled several times. Moreover, the raging fire rifle and Fort of Honor designed by Allen will be officially promoted to the entire Union army under the order of Mobit.
Under the pressure of alien powers and the trend of cooperation between the old and new parties. Even though this order would affect the interests of many people, no one dared to object.
At least on the surface.
As for the Grant family, in the name of funding the sequence master Lawlins, they opened the Mowu factory, preparing to compete with Beskod for this delicious cake of magic weaponry; or the Smith family, which has been neutral, said it will Let the bullets of the younger generation of the family enter the chaotic battlefield to increase experience; and in the past two years, Bethkode has risen in both fame and strength, and has reached the ranking of the family this year. This makes the Alexander family bears back, and the patriarch Maine recently announced an alliance with the Grant family to deal with Bethkode, etc., let Horn simply take it.
Allen listened and took a deep breath. The situation on Babylon was unpredictable, far beyond his imagination.
