Chapter 978 Restart
In two years, the Earth has not changed much. The only change may be that the Earth Federation's maintenance forces have obtained the support of the three major forces and the right to make their own armaments, so the maintenance forces have developed solar furnaces and Gundams by themselves.
In two years, Duran and Tianren are no longer topics, and no one will mention them again.
The Middle East and Africa are still in turmoil, but in order to obtain the support of the Middle Eastern countries for the Earth Federation, the Kingdom of Azadistan has been completely destroyed because of a conspiracy. Now the maintenance forces are fighting in this land of mountains and rivers under the pretext of clearing out anti-federal forces.
The so-called anti-federal forces are actually a group of forces that are not used to the maintenance forces' tyranny. To be precise, they are anti-maintenance forces, but the maintenance forces call them anti-federal forces in order to prove the legitimacy of their actions.
The hidden Levonz is like a fish in water on Earth. He has his own way of bewitching people and sowing discord. At this time, he is the actual person in charge of the maintenance forces. He firmly controls the troops by inserting reformers into all levels of the troops. At the same time, he has a large number of scientific research institutions. As the biggest supporter behind the maintenance forces, he has gained the trust of the maintenance forces.
So the chaos is still there, anyway, the three major forces live very peacefully relying on the energy of the space orbital elevator.
"This is good, as long as the three major forces do not move, when the alien forces come, they will naturally work together to resist the foreign enemies." Duran said to the crew who had undergone a qualitative change.
Lockon and Jiutiao, who were originally celestial beings, sighed in their hearts when they saw the constant small-scale conflicts on the earth. The sacrifices and efforts of the celestial beings were completely useless.
"Okay, Duran has finished speaking, and I will also say a few words. You will have a long vacation for the next period of time, so have a good rest." Sergei said: "Everyone has performed well in the past two years, so rest assured to cultivate, and what awaits us next will be a more dangerous adventure." "Vice Captain Soma, you and I will work a little harder and take turns on duty."
"Yes, Captain." Two years is a period of time, and their positions and titles have also undergone tremendous changes.
"Now all personnel will conduct the final inspection, and then go on vacation."
All decks: hangar, living area, ammunition depot, laboratory, medical room, leisure area, agricultural area, power area, transmission room, etc., all checked once, no abnormalities.
"First Officer Kujo, let's get started."
"All decks are in standby mode to save energy." Kujo is the first officer of the Enterprise. This is an affirmation of her outstanding performance in the communication and dealing with alien life in the past two years: "Captain, all decks except the bridge have been adjusted, and the Enterprise has entered the lowest energy consumption cruising state."
"Very good, everyone get off the ship, I'll stay to take the first shift."
After returning after two years, everyone has things to do. For example, Lockon is going to lay flowers in front of his family's tombstone. He has missed the two memorial days of his parents and sister.
The wind on Earth is still so refreshing. Lockon put on a windbreaker and looked up at the blue sky and white clouds intertwined. Suddenly, he felt a sense of strangeness. He had a crazy and fulfilling two years. He met terrible monsters and dealt with civilizations at a higher level than humans. There were battles and diplomacy. They even became the savior of an advanced alien civilization because they prevented the conspiracy.
Looking back now, the two years of experience are enough for him to write a science fiction novel. Stepping into the quiet cemetery, only the sound of wind blowing leaves can be heard, like the peaceful whispers of the dead.
"I'm very sorry, I'm late." After offering flowers, Lockon said sorry to the tombstones of his parents and sister: "Because I went to a very far place." So far that it was unimaginable.
The dead will forgive him.
Pah --
There was the sound of something falling to the ground. Lockon turned around and saw his twin brother.
Lyle Dirandi looked at his brother in shock, the brother who had been missing for a long time. He thought his brother was dead. He and his brother graduated from military school, but he didn't see his brother often after graduation. Lyle didn't know what his brother was doing. Occasionally, he could see his brother coming to offer flowers on the anniversary of his parents and sister's death. However, in the past two years, his brother, who rarely appeared, had completely disappeared. Lyle once thought that his brother had died, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly appear in front of him again.
"Neil?? !!" After the shock, there was anger. Their parents taught them to value family. Lyle couldn't forgive a brother who was busy with his own affairs even on the anniversary of his parents and sister's death.
Neil Dirandi is Lockon's real name. Like other Tianren fighters, Lockon is a code name.
"Lyle, long time no see." This is a sincere sigh. In the past two years, Lockon has witnessed the Milky Way and felt more and more how precious what he has is. Maybe it is not worth mentioning to the universe, but it is a priceless treasure to himself. After crossing the Milky Way, he reunited with his brother who looked exactly like him, and he actually felt a kind of joy of regaining what he had lost.
He smiled to himself. The younger brother was not in the mood to stage a good show of reunion with his brother after a long separation. He was only angry with his brother. He hated his brother for not taking the important day to heart.
So he came up and punched Lockon. Lockon's left face was swollen. The younger brother really knocked him to the ground mercilessly.
In fact, Lockon did not forget the anniversary of his parents and sister, otherwise he would not come today. You know, on the way back, he made the Enterprise make an extreme jump just to not miss today.
After hurrying, he finally caught up, but he didn't expect to be punched by his younger brother in front of the tombstone.
However, Lockon understood why his younger brother was so angry. He didn't blame his younger brother: "Lyle, are you okay?" He didn't fulfill his brother's responsibility. After graduating from the military academy, he was selected to enter the Celestial Beings, and then went to the center of the galaxy. He never cared about his younger brother.
"Don't worry about it." After punching, Lyle was almost out of his temper. He and his brother actually have similar personalities. They are both good-tempered and don't hold grudges.
Lockon also understood his younger brother. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up. "I came here today to apologize to my parents and Amy." He looked at the tombstone with a nostalgic expression.
It seems that his brother really didn't forget: "No matter what you are doing, you should not forget today." The younger brother picked up the flowers and presented them.
The tombstone was surrounded by flowers.
Seeing the two brothers standing together, I'm afraid their families will be very relieved in the underworld.
"Lockon Stratos?!" The second person who was shocked by Lockon today appeared.
The two identical people turned around at the same time, as if they were pasted and copied, and saw a handsome young man standing behind them. At this time, the young man's facial expression was stiff, as if he didn't understand why a person who was considered dead would reappear.
The person who came was Setsuna F. Qingying, who was originally going to recruit Lockon's brother to restore the fighting power of the heavenly man.
