Collapse Iron: My Past Life Revealed, I Was Everyone's White Moonlight

Seeing this, the audience, who were initially angry because the screen kept them in suspense, fell silent again.

The atmosphere became somewhat somber again.

Yes.

Civil war is about to begin.

Although I can understand the Empress, well... sigh, it's still a bit heartbreaking.

If Grammer is truly destroyed... is there really no way to achieve the best of both worlds?

There was no other way; the moment the Empress learned the truth about the Empire… civil war was already inevitable.

If Sam hadn't told the Queen the truth in the first place...

Even if Sam doesn't tell the Queen the truth, she'll probably find out soon enough, right?

[That makes sense. After all, the footage shown by the heavens earlier showed that the Republic's ruling council was already preparing to take action against the Iron Cavalry, and the people's attitude towards the Iron Cavalry... all of this will prompt the Empress to investigate the truth; it's only a matter of time.]

A lie is still a lie, and it will eventually be exposed.

[Everyone has their own opinion, but I support Her Majesty the Queen!]

Amid the audience's sighs.

Within the canopy.

Not long after.

A mission order personally signed by Empress Titania was quickly delivered to the squad where Firefly was located.

The mission is simple: travel to the most remote star system on the border of the Grammer Republic and wipe out a swarm of lingering insectoids.

"An expeditionary mission?"

"Great! Finally, another mission!"

"What?! This is a mission personally issued by Her Majesty the Empress!"

When the team members saw the Queen's stamp on the mission manual, their faces lit up with excitement and pride.

After all, this was a mission personally assigned by Her Majesty the Queen, which was also the greatest trust and affirmation she had for them!

The same is true of fireflies.

After all, she was also a member of the Iron Cavalry.

For her, eliminating the Zerg swarm for the Empire was her inescapable duty.

Receiving and completing a task personally assigned by the Empress was an honor for her as a member of the Iron Cavalry.

But while feeling honored, Firefly also felt a little disappointed.

After all, it hadn't been long since she finished her last mission and reunited with her brother Sam.

So they're going to break up again so soon...

In fact, during this period, she had spent very little time with Sam in order to deal with the remnants of the Zerg swarm within the Imperial domain.

Liu Ying looked at the mission sheet in her hand.

Ok.

After this mission is over, I'll see if I can take two days off to visit my brother Sam...

As usual, after receiving the mission, Firefly immediately began preparing for the expedition.

Soon it was morning to set off.

Because the sun had not yet risen, it was still somewhat dark around us.

But for the people piloting the Firefly mechs, these were minor matters.

Today, she will first lead her team members from the military flight station in the capital to the airport of the capital star. After resting for a night, they will board a warship at the airport and head to their mission destination.

What Liu Ying didn't expect was...

She had just led her assembled squad to the flight platform when she saw an unexpected person there.

The newcomer was standing at the edge of the platform, the wind making his spotless white lab coat flutter loudly.

He was like a lonely statue, silently gazing at the deep starry sky in the distance.

"Brother Sam?"

Sam turned around upon hearing this and saw Firefly running towards him with light steps.

Her face beamed with undisguised joy and excitement, like a little bird about to break free from its bonds and soar into the blue sky.

"What brings you here? Are you here to see me off again?"

"Hmm." Sam nodded, his voice as calm as ever.

Liu Ying pouted: "Didn't I tell you before that I didn't need it? After all, you're so busy..."

That's what they say.

But being able to talk to Sam before setting off made Firefly very surprised and happy.

of course.

Sam noticed that the fireflies were very happy.

"Hey hey hey, I wonder who was it last night in the dorm, lamenting that they wouldn't see their dear Sam brother for a long time again~"

The one speaking was a silver-haired, short-haired Iron Rider girl from the Firefly Squad.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ying's face instantly flushed red, and she glared fiercely at the girl: "AR-36541..."

AR-36541, seeing the fireflies, was immediately enraged and snapped to attention, saluting: "Grammer Iron Cavalry AR-36541, now set off!"

He then jumped off the flying platform, summoned his mech, and flew away.

The remaining team members looked at the fleeing AR-36541 with a mixture of amusement and helplessness, and then turned to Liu Ying.

"Captain, let's head to the airport first. You can take your time."

"after all……"

They glanced at Sam beside them and said in unison, "It really will be a long time before we see each other again~"

Without waiting for Liu Ying's reply, the group summoned their mechs and flew into the sky.

Firefly: "..."

These guys!

And then all the team members left.

Seeing Sam looking over, Liu Ying blushed and whispered, "Brother Sam, please don't mind."

"They were just joking..."

Although she was indeed a little disappointed that she wouldn't see Sam for a long time...

Sam seemed to see right through her.

He smiled and reached out to ruffle her hair as usual.

"Yes, I don't mind."

His voice was soft, with a hint of gentleness that was barely perceptible.

"Although this mission is simple, please remember to be careful."

"I know!" Firefly nodded vigorously, raising her hand with the Firefly Mech Summoner Bracelet and waving it in front of Sam. "With the amulet you gave me, I'll be fine!"

"And once we've cleared away all those annoying bugs, there will be no more war."

"Then we can live together in peace forever, and we'll never have to fight again!"

"We can go see the flower park in the capital city together. I heard that the flowers there never wither all year round."

"Or you can continue researching the mechas you like, and I'll pilot the wings you made for me and take you to see every corner of the universe..."

The girl chattered away, her clear eyes filled with boundless longing for a peaceful future.

Sam looked at the bracelet and the bright smile on the girl's face, and his throat tightened slightly.

He had a lot to say.

I wanted to tell her the truth about the empire.

I wanted to tell her about the cruelty of this war.

I wanted to tell her that this might be the last time they met.

But... he can't.

In the end, he still didn't say anything.

He simply reached out and gently stroked her head, his movements as tender as if he were touching a fragile treasure.

"Yes, I will."

Sam's deep eyes gazed silently at the firefly before him, as if he wanted to etch her image into the depths of his soul forever.

"The war... will eventually end."

However, because of her joy, Firefly did not notice Sam's unusual behavior.

Sam quickly composed himself, withdrew his hand, and returned to his normal demeanor, saying, "Speaking of which..."

"...You haven't named the Firefly mecha I gave you yet, have you?"
