Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 445 Seed
Inside the Abyss of Perdition.

The Star Destroyer Holy Sleep, with its remaining troops, fled in a panic towards its own defense line.

At this time, a huge fleet appeared in the distance, led by a level 5 mothership, Glory.

Inside the central control room of the Glory.

Commander Momesk sat calmly on the chair, while Gaoge and others stood solemnly on both sides of Commander Momesk.

An operator reported at this time.

"Captain, we have detected the Star Destroyer, the Holy Sleep, and the remaining troops!"

"Send a communication request to the Holy Sleep."

Commander Momesk spoke calmly.

"Yes!"

The operator executed the command immediately.

Soon the communication was established and Hofree's virtual image emerged.

Then, Commander Momesk spoke in an anxious manner.

"Hoffrey, where's Enderfa? We're here to support him."

When Hofree heard what Commander Momesk said, he immediately cursed in anger.

"You still have the nerve to ask? Lord Andefa has already died."

"Sacrificed? That's stupid. If you can't win, just retreat."

Commander Momesk said with great sorrow.

"Captain Momesk, you don't need to pretend to be sympathetic. If you hadn't been so slow to come to support, would Lord Anderfa have died in battle? You are all responsible for the failure of this battle and the death of Lord Anderfa."

Hofree accused through gritted teeth.

"Hoffrey, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. We came to support you as soon as we received the message for help. As for Andefa's death, although we feel very sad, it was all caused by his willful behavior. You should know that he was in charge of the command of this operation, and we all followed his orders."

Momesk replied coldly, completely shifting all the responsibility in a few words.

"Bullshit! I'm asking you! Why did the Federation's ships come from our hinterland and attack us from behind? And why was the communication interrupted and the rescue message unable to be sent?"

Hofree asked through gritted teeth.

"I'm really sorry. There was a traitor down there, and the relay signal fortress was destroyed. But don't worry, the traitors have been dealt with! As for what you said about the Federation ships attacking you from the hinterland, we don't know. It may be that the enemy's stealth performance is too good, and our monitoring tower has not been upgraded for a long time, so it missed it."

Commander Momesk still refused to admit anything.

After hearing this, Hofree angrily pointed his index finger at Commander Momesk.

"Bullshit, do you think you can cover it up like this?"

"Hoffrey, if you have evidence, show it. If you don't have evidence, you'd better watch your words."

The Momesk Corps Commander replied expressionlessly.

"Captain Momesk! Just wait, this matter is not over yet. I will definitely report it to the Lord God Emperor."

After Hovers made these harsh remarks, he immediately hung up the phone.

Then, the Star Destroyer USS Holy Sleep led the fleet and drove away directly past the support force.

At this time, Commander Misa slowly walked out from the darkness.

At this time, the commander of the Momesk Corps, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, walked to the side of Commander Misa and asked in a low voice.

"Commander, do you want me to take some people to kill that guy?"

"Need not."

Commander Misa replied coldly.

"So we're just going to let him go back and complain to the Divine Emperor?"

Momesk asked with some concern.

"It doesn't matter. He doesn't have any substantial evidence. If we kill him now, it will give others a handle."

"I'm just worried that the Emperor of God will take advantage of this issue."

"Humph, taking advantage of the situation? This time, Andefa colluded with the Chirami tribe to attack the Federation, which is a crime against humanity. Emperor Fanluo should worry about himself first. If this matter is exposed, I don't think he will be able to keep his position. If he is smart, he'd better think twice before touching me."

Misa said coldly.

"But it's better to be safe than sorry."

Momesk asked after a moment's hesitation.

"If that's the case, don't blame me for being rude. You know how many people have been dissatisfied with him in recent years."

Misa's eyes flashed coldly and she spoke very coldly.

In fact, Commander Misa and his men were not on the same page with Emperor Vanluo from the beginning to the end.

The Kingdom of Apocalypse was originally a kingdom that followed the model of divine right of kings.

The Kingdom of Apocalypse had its own king, but later Van Luo used the sect to successfully overthrow the royal family, implemented the unity of politics and religion, and crowned himself as the Divine Emperor.

Commander Misa and others originally belonged to the royal faction.

Fan Luo has always wanted to completely recruit Misa and the others, but he never had the chance.

As for Archbishop Akain, although he is from the Divine Emperor faction, he was sent here to monitor Commander Misa.

It’s a pity that Archbishop Akain has long been very dissatisfied with Emperor Vanlo, and directly mixed with Commander Misa and others.

"I see. What do we do now?"

"The Shield Fortress of the Returning Star."

Misa replied indifferently.

"Yes!"

Momesk responded respectfully.

After a long time.

The entrance to the connecting passage of the Light Star Shield Fortress.

The closed gate opened, and Commander Misa walked in with Momesk.

At this time they saw Archbishop Akayin head on.

"Akain, why are you here? What happened?"

Commander Misa asked with a frown on his face.

"Well, something has happened. I just received an order from the Divine Emperor Vanluo. The Divine Emperor told you not to go back and to continue guarding the Abyss of Perdition, but he also asked me to go back and report immediately."

Akain briefly explained.

Misa heard this and said in a deep voice.

"It's probably not a good idea to ask you to go back at this critical moment."

"It doesn't matter. As long as you are safe here, the Emperor Fanluo can't do anything to me. Besides, I have always acted according to his will. What's wrong with that?"

Archbishop Akain replied with a smile.

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Misa nodded slightly in response.
-
In the dark world.

Su Ming continued to fall towards the bottomless abyss with a dazed expression, allowing the darkness to swallow him.

It was unknown how long he had been falling, but Su Ming's body suddenly stopped as if he had hit bottom.

A ray of light suddenly appeared in the abyss beneath my feet, and the dark surroundings changed.

When Su Ming came to his senses, he found himself in a solemn, dignified and sacred hall.

The dome of the hall was carved with intricate patterns and holy angels. In the front sat a luxurious throne, on which sat a man with an unclear face, wearing a black dragon robe and a crown of silence. He was surrounded by blurry figures.

Those blurry figures kept accusing.

"You are right, we are wrong!"

Su Ming stood quietly at the edge, watching the scene.

Then the blurry figures of those accusations disappeared one by one.

Only one knight in white armor and holding a spear was left, kneeling on one knee and speaking devoutly.

"King, as long as you give the order, I swear to kill all those traitors who have abandoned their faith and are corrupt!"

The man on the throne was silent for a long time. Finally, he sighed and spoke in a very lonely voice.

"That's it, step back."

The knight also slowly disappeared, and the only figure left in the entire hall was the figure on the throne, sitting there alone.

Su Ming walked towards the throne step by step. He knew better than anyone how lonely, angry and confused he was at that time.

When he walked in front of the throne, the figure on the throne slowly raised his head.

The moment the two looked at each other.

Suddenly a white light appeared, and the dark palace collapsed like bubbles.

Su Ming's consciousness was immediately pulled back by the white light.

Medical room.

Mia, Su Yuan, Rhine and others all surrounded the bed, looking at the unconscious Su Ming, all of them were extremely anxious.

"Lord Boden, why haven't you woken up in such a long time?"

Rhine couldn't help but ask Dr. Boden again.

"I don't know either. Lord Su Ming's physical condition is completely different from that of others. With his pollution value, if it were someone else, they would have mutated or died long ago. But now he is repeatedly jumping between mutation and non-mutation."

Dr. Boden also looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"Then you think of a solution!"

Su Yuan said anxiously.

"I thought about it. I used all the medicines that could be used. I wanted him to be okay more than anyone else."

Dr. Boden wanted to die.

Ever since he became responsible for Su Ming's health, he had nightmares every day, fearing that Su Ming would die one day.

If Su Ming died, Lord Blacks would definitely skin him alive.

Just when everyone was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, Su Ming slowly opened his eyes.

Just when Rhine was about to complain about something, he suddenly saw Su Ming open his eyes and shouted with joy.

"woke up!"

"Boss, wake up!"

Mia and the others gathered around and shouted at Su Ming.

"Su Ming!"

"how are you feeling?"

In the end, no matter how everyone shouted, Su Ming did not respond at all.

"Boss, are you talking?"

"Yeah, don't scare us?"

Rhine and others were a little panicked when they saw that Su Ming didn't respond for a long time.

"All of you move aside, let me see what's going on."

Mia walked up and shouted.

Rhine and others made way, and Mia's face was directly against Su Ming's face, observing Su Ming closely.

"No problem?"

Mia also spoke with a puzzled look on her face.

"Teacher Mia, have you been drinking again? You smell so much alcohol."

Su Ming suddenly spoke helplessly.

Mia was also surprised and said happily.

"I knew you were a tough kid, nothing would happen to you."

"That's not necessarily true. I feel uncomfortable all over right now."

Su Ming replied with a wry smile.

"Master Su Ming, it's normal to feel uncomfortable. Your body has been highly contaminated, and it will take time for you to recover. But as long as you wake up, your life will basically be out of danger."

Boden wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a long sigh.

He finally survived another disaster.

"I see. What's the battle situation now?"

Su Ming asked weakly.

Everyone, who were originally very happy, fell silent for a moment when they heard Su Ming's question.

Mia said with a long sigh.

"The war was won, but the casualties were extremely heavy. Not to mention the generals and soldiers who died in the battle, nearly half of the defense weapons inside the Abyss of Perdition were destroyed!"

"Now what?"

"What else can we do? Commander Soleiya can only ask General Angulat and his men to stay there to defend. At the same time, we have to transfer some of the weapons in stock from the upper defense line and ask for help from the Federation."

"Well, that's the only way."

Su Ming replied weakly.

"Okay, don't worry about it. Just have a good rest."

Mia instructed Su Ming.

"it is good."

Su Ming forced a smile and responded.
-
A few days later.

The Abyss of the Fallen: In the cemetery of the Federal Defense Headquarters.

The entire cemetery is laid out in a circle, with walls of honor erected around the edges, displaying the federal heroes who have sacrificed in the Abyss of Perdition over the years.

In the center of the cemetery sits a circular mourning platform, with tombstones standing behind it.

Commander Soleya, along with many generals and legions, stood under a circular mourning platform holding flowers.

On the memorial stand were placed medals, clothes, photo frames and other keepsakes of the fallen comrades.

Soleiya raised her right hand and placed it on her chest, then bowed deeply.

Everyone bowed heavily with sad hearts.

Faint sobbing sounds could be heard at the scene, and the atmosphere was filled with sadness.

After Soleiya bowed, she walked forward and placed the flowers in her hand on the platform. Then one officer after another walked forward and placed the flowers in their hands on the platform.

After the worship was finished, everyone did not disperse.

Commander Soleia, General Angulat and others discussed the aftermath. All the comrades who died in the battle needed to apply for compensation, and their bodies needed to be sent back to the third planet.

As for the other officers, they were scattered, gathered in groups, and talked in low voices.

"This war is really too cruel. I didn't expect that even Deputy Corps Commander Hariviv would be sacrificed."

"Alas, it's a pity that we got there too late."

"This is not your fault. You were also stopped by Chirami."

"That's what I said, but I feel bad. By the way, I heard that the new Lieutenant General Su Ming is very strong. Is that true?"

"Really? Not only did he kill the Anderfa Templar, but he also killed the V-type heroic Chirami Hekains."

"He's so strong at such a young age. He seems to be just like the Council President when he was young."

"That's how I feel, too!"

"By the way, after this battle, can General Su Ming be awarded the Order of the Sun?"

"Okay, but there's a problem."

"what is the problem?"

"Is he the Red Sun Medal or the Black Sun Medal? Deputy Captain Andefa is qualified, but the problem is that the V-type heroic level Chirami Hekains is more valuable."

“Why not grant two?”

"The main reason is that Enderfa and the Chirami were in a fusion state at the time, and Enderfa might have enslaved the monster as a weapon. In this case, theoretically it can only be counted as one. Of course, the specific judgment depends on the review department."

"Makes sense."

On the other side, He Jie and several female officers gathered together and chatted with some emotion.

"Hey, my vision was right, wasn't it? I was very optimistic about General Su Ming from the beginning."

"I am optimistic about him too. He is so young and very strong. Now whenever people talk about this battle, they almost always talk about him."

"Oh, it would be great if he were my boyfriend."

"You're dreaming. Right now, all the unmarried female officers in the base are attracted to him. How can you be the one?"

"Too."

Just at this moment, the sound of heavy footsteps was heard.

Everyone turned their heads to look over.

Su Ming was seen sitting in a wheelchair, and Rhine and others pushed him in.

"coming."

Everyone made way for him and looked at him with admiration.

Soon Su Ming was pushed to the memorial platform. Lai Rhine and others reached out to help Su Ming up, but Su Ming refused. He put his hands on the armrests and stood up tremblingly.

An Qi handed a bouquet of white flowers to Su Ming.

Su Ming took it, bowed to the mourning platform, and then placed the flowers on it.

At this time, Commander Soleia and General Angulat came over.

"Is Su Ming feeling better?"

Soleiya asked with concern.

"Much better. Just rest for a while and you'll be fine."

Su Ming replied respectfully.

Commander Soleiya's brows relaxed a lot when she heard Su Ming's words.

She raised her hand and gently patted Su Ming's shoulder and said.

"You did a great job this time. I will report your military achievements to the parliament. You don't have to worry about anything during this period. Just take good care of your injuries."

"Thank you, Commander."

Su Ming nodded slightly in response.

Rhine and others then pushed Su Ming away.

The next night.

In Canteen No. 1.

Mia sat at a table in the corner of the cafeteria, drinking beer and having dinner.

At this time, Evelyn came in with a bottle of red wine and walked straight towards Mia.

Mia saw Evelin coming over and immediately became alert. If this woman came to her, she would definitely come with bad intentions and cause trouble.

Soon Evelyn walked up to Mia.

"What do you want to do?"

Mia asked unhappily.

Evelyn placed the red wine in her hand directly in front of Mia and said awkwardly.

"I'm here to apologize. I'm sorry!"

"Oh, you didn't take your medicine today? The sun is rising from the west?"

Mia's jaw dropped.

She felt really weird that Evelyn would actually apologize to her one day.

"Can you please talk nicely? This wine is an apology. After all, you saved me on the battlefield, so I shouldn't be so upset with you."

Evelyn explained somewhat reluctantly.

"If you say so, then I won't be polite."

Mia picked up the red wine and took a look. It was actually her favorite Red Flower. This was a good aged wine. As expected of a man who came from a big family, he was generous.

"Ahem, Mia, can I ask you something?"

Evelyn saw Mia smiling from ear to ear and immediately asked.

"sure!"

Mia replied without even thinking.

"How is Su Ming doing now?"

"Why are you asking me? Just go and see him and you'll know."

"Yes, then what does Su Ming like? Does he have any special hobbies?"

Evelyn immediately began to inquire.

When Mia heard Evelyn's words, she immediately felt something was wrong, put down her drink and asked.

"What do you want to do?"

"No, I can't go to see him empty-handed."

"There's nothing I particularly like about that brat."

"By the way, I heard that he seems to be still single. Does he mind the age issue?"

Evelyn looked at Mia expectantly.

Mia reacted immediately when she heard this. She knew Evelin had no good intentions and wanted to dig up her cabbage!
She picked up the wine very annoyed, stuffed it back to Evelin, and said angrily.

"Give it back to you, I don't want your wine, leave now!"

"What are you doing? It's rare that I'm kind enough to apologize to you."

Evelyn replied angrily.

"No, I don't need it, I can't afford it!"

Mia replied angrily.

"Humph! You're sick!"

Evelyn saw Mia suddenly turn hostile, then snorted coldly, picked up the wine and left.

Mia looked at Evelyn's leaving back, and was also very angry, and cursed angrily.

"The weasel has no good intentions when it wishes the chicken New Year greetings."

After she finished scolding, she continued to eat with her head down.

At this time, Rhine and his men pushed Su Ming to the cafeteria. They saw Mia at a glance and walked over.

"Teacher Mia."

"Well, Su Ming, why are you coming to the cafeteria to eat? Just ask them to bring it to you."

Mia said to Su Ming.

"Lying down all day will make you rusty. Come out and get some fresh air."

Su Ming replied with a smile.

"alright."

Mia didn't say anything.

Soon Rhine and his friends brought the food, and Su Ming ate while chatting with Mia.

"Teacher Mia, you don't seem to be in a good mood."

"It was all good, but then..."

"What's the result?"

"Nothing, no more!"

Mia swallowed her words back halfway through.

At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly sounded beside.

"No way? Is this true or false?"

"I don't know!"

Su Ming and others turned their heads to look over, only to see groups of officers gathered together, not knowing what they were looking at.

"Something seems to have happened."

Su Ming said to Mia thoughtfully.

"Go over and have a look!"

Mia frowned slightly, then stood up and walked over.

Seeing this, Rhine pushed Su Ming over.

At this time, the officers saw Su Ming and Mia coming over and saluted and greeted them.

"General Mia, General Su Ming!"

"Well, what happened?"

Mia immediately asked.

"Lady Mia, something big happened in the Federation."

The officers in front of them all spoke up.

"What did you say? What's the big deal?"

Mia was also stunned.

"I heard that the Council President was placed under house arrest by the Lord of Jakkers City."

The officers hesitated, then spoke.

After Mia, Su Ming and others heard this, they were all stunned for a moment.

"Don't joke like that, how is that possible?"

Mia warned with a dark look on her face.

Everything else is easy to deal with, except for matters involving the Speaker of the Parliament, which cannot afford to have any problems.

"Really? I'll send you the video."

The leading officer raised his bracelet and secretly sent the video to Mia and Su Ming.

The two of them looked down at the video, their faces suddenly changed, and they raised their heads and asked.

"Where did you get this video? Who else has seen it?"

"This video was downloaded from the Kingdom of Apocalypse!"

"Then why haven't we heard about it?"

Rhine asked doubtfully.

"I heard that it was controlled and deleted, so it didn't reach us."

The leading officer explained it, but he was not very clear about the details.

Su Ming heard this and said while touching his forehead.

"This is a big problem. No matter whether this video is true or false, as long as the president of the parliament does not come out to refute the rumor, the seeds of doubt have been planted, and problems will arise sooner or later."

"I'm really impressed. We were attacked here and there's trouble at home."

Mia's head was about to explode.

At this time, Rhine and others asked in a low voice.

"Wouldn't it be better to let the president of the parliament come out and dispel the rumor?"

"How can it be that simple? The Speaker of the Parliament hasn't come out yet. It's very likely that his health hasn't recovered yet. If he forces himself to come out to dispel rumors and causes his health to deteriorate, then it would be a loss."

Mia replied angrily.

"What the teacher said makes sense, so what should we do now?"

Rhine and the others scratched their heads.

"How do I know what to do? This trick may not be very clever, but it is very effective. If it goes wrong, there will be chaos in the Federation."

Mia replied with a headache.

"Let's wait and see what happens. Lord Jakkers and his men will definitely respond. The more critical the moment is, the more we cannot lose our composure. It's obvious that everyone is targeting the Federation now."

Su Ming said rationally.

"Oh~ okay."

Everyone sighed helplessly.

……
-
The third planet, Starlight City, Area N1.

There is a huge manor covering an area of ​​30 square kilometers.

The interior of the manor is full of lush forests, and deep in the center there is a turquoise lake, the surface of the lake sparkles under the sunlight.

On the edge of the lake stands a magnificent castle. The entire castle is made of precious white jade rock, covered with moss, giving people a sense of history.

creak!

The towering door slowly opened.

A number of black hovercrafts drove straight in.

In the luxurious main hall inside the castle, Long Chen sat on the main seat wearing a luxurious black robe with gold thread edges. His expression was very solemn, his eyes kept flickering, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside, and a hunchbacked butler wearing a white shirt and black suit walked in with two people.

On the left is an old man wearing a grey robe, thin, gloomy, and difficult to get along with. On the right is an old woman wearing a luxurious brocade robe, with loose skin, white hair, and deep eye sockets.

These two people are the Lord of Dragon Shadow, City of Sin, and the Lord of Longlan, City of Tianlan, Star of Tianlan.

"Third Brother!"

Long Ying and Long Lan shouted at the same time.

"You're here, sit down!"

Long Chen said in a deep voice.

Long Ying and Long Lan walked straight to the chairs on both sides of Long Chen and sat down.

Long Chen spoke expressionlessly to all the servants in the hall.

"Everyone get down!"

"Yes!"

All the servants retreated.

Soon, Long Chen and the other two were the only ones left in the hall.

Long Chen looked at Long Ying and Long Lan and spoke in a deep voice.

"Have you all seen that video?"

"See, the two of us came here just for that video."

Long Lan replied without hesitation.

"That's right. Regardless of whether the video is real or fake, we have to go visit our father. We haven't seen him for a hundred years."

Long Ying said gloomily.

"I'm afraid it's not that easy to visit."

Long Chen said calmly.

"It is natural for children to visit their father. Who dares to stop them?"

Long Lan snorted coldly in response.

You should know that Council Chairman Long Xian has a total of seven sons and five daughters.

However, so far only Long Chen, Long Ying and Long Lan are still alive. Among them, Long Bai is the only daughter of the eldest son, Long Ye.

"Okay, then we'll visit together."

Long Chen nodded and said.

"No problem, but Third Brother has something I think I need to tell you in advance."

Long Ying said with a serious expression.

"you say!"

Long Chen looked at Long Ying and said.

"What if, I mean what if, if father is really no longer able to do it, then Third Brother, you must take over. Seventh Sister and I will fully support you."

Long Ying said very seriously.

"Fifth brother is right, Third brother you must take the position. Otherwise, our Long family will die in an ugly way. There are so many people praising us now, but when we lose power, there will be so many people who want us dead."

Long Lan added coldly.

"I understand what you are saying, but it is not easy to get promoted. There are so many eyes on the position of Council President."

Long Chen sighed and replied.

"Even if we can't get the position of parliament speaker, we must at least take back the rights of the head of the Long family. Only then can we protect ourselves."

Long Ying replied to Long Chen with a frown on his face.

"It's not that simple. If we want to take back the troops of Starlight City and the Long family, we need the support of Lord Jakkers and Commander Aleck. But at the moment, they are both more optimistic about Long Bai."

Long Chen said with a helpless look.

"Long Bai? She is just a junior. Third brother, you are the first in line to inherit the throne. What qualifications does she have to compete with you?"

Long Lan replied bluntly.

Long Ying also said with a gloomy face.

"Let's not talk about Long Bai's generational status. How can a woman inherit the throne? Moreover, she will get married sooner or later. The power of our Long family will never be allowed to flow out. Third brother, don't worry. Long Lan and I will definitely support you with all our strength."

When Long Chen heard this, he looked very moved.

"Your words are enough, but that's all for later. Let's visit father first to see how he is doing, and then make plans for the next step."

"it is good!"

The two responded in a deep voice.

ps: I’m sorry, the New Year is coming soon and I have a lot to do, so the number of updated words may be unstable. I hope you can understand.

ps: I wish you all a happy new year in advance!
