Star Hatching

Adelaide came in high spirits and returned disappointed.

Cedric looked at his back, his gaze changed instantly, and Adelaide suddenly felt a glow on his back, and when he looked back, Cedric raised his eyebrows at him provocatively.

Adelaide slightly raised her upper lip, turned and left.Still a ignorant brat at all, Adelaide thought.

Cedric put away his expression, his eyes were slightly lowered, and his eyes were deep.

Hogan looked at Cedric's profile and frowned slightly. Why did he still feel that Cedric was hiding something?He faintly felt that it was an important matter.

Sibbenfer said, "Come on, we have to talk about your mother."

Cedric put his hands in his trouser pockets, turned around and shouted: "Hey, don't go too far, I don't admit that you are here to save us, this is none of your business!"

It seems that it is no different from before.

Hogan's eyebrows stretched, thinking that he must have read it wrong.

In fact, as long as it is another person, he will definitely continue to delve into it.But because the other party is Cedric, he trusts him a lot—but it's not so much trust in Cedric that he won't hide himself, it's more like... trust in Cedric's IQ.

Sibenfer hummed: "Shouting, are there any rules?"

Cedric said: "You were the one who disrespected the old at first, okay?"

Sibenfer did not refute, but said: "So you have an opinion?"

Cedric said: "Do you want to use Dukuta's method to decide right or wrong?" Don't faint again!

At the hotel back then, Sibenfer almost died shortly after his transformation.

Sibenfer said without changing his face: "I can give you this chance." I was trying to win this round!

"..." Hogan: "I think we should have a lot of things to discuss. It is really necessary for you to understand the mother's last words. I think there are some important information hidden in them."

Cedric's eyes widened, he pointed at Sibenfur in surprise and said, "Are you sure there is still him?"

Sibenfur said coldly: "At a critical moment, a wise person will rely on the experience of the elders."

Cedric muttered: "It's useless to have more experience, there's no way to practice it."

Sibenfu sneered: "Maybe you still need an uncle." Doesn't Lao Dang Yi Zhuang know?There are plenty of opportunities to practice!

Cedric: "..."

"You have to have a strong bone that has been tempered into steel, and you have to fight for the sword of justice and cut off all injustice. If you are temporarily powerless, look to the west, and your morning star will be your eternal light. Will lead you to find the sword of Damocles, and you will stick to your justice."

Hogan pointed to the recorded passage and said to Cedric and others: "Do you think this passage is implying anything?"

To put it bluntly, if anyone bullies you, you can fight back. A lieutenant general here is os.

Can't beat what to do?

"Look west, your morning star will be your eternal light, and it will eventually lead you to find the sword of Damocles." Hogan repeated this sentence, saying, "As we all know, the morning star is in the east , The sword of Damocles means the hanging sword. My mother asked me to follow the morning star in the west to find the hanging sword. It sounds weird. But Adelaide cares so much about her mother's last words, which is enough to prove that there is something hidden in her It has deep meaning. Marshal Sibenfur, if I remember correctly, in the western constellation Alpha, there is a planet called Light Star, and the atmosphere of this planet is filled with a fluorescent substance, making it as bright as a star."

Sibbenforth nodded.He noticed that Hogan used the word "Marshal Sibbenfurt" and straightened his back reservedly.

"Because you have something you have to do, that is the mission you have to fulfill throughout your life, and it is the glorious responsibility you have accepted from me since you were born." Hogan thought, how dare you disobey your mother's last words?

In order to complete the unknown "mission", Hogan must grasp all the power he can control.

Hogan cautiously glanced at everyone present: "As far as I know—" he said slowly, as if afraid of scaring people, "There was a project called 'Revenge' on the Light Star, It was only because of the invasion of fantasy beasts that all researchers had to be withdrawn."

Everyone in the military department changed their expressions drastically.

This was a top-secret project decades ago, how could Hogan know?

Facing several sudden and sharp gazes, Hogan said calmly: "Just like cheating, no matter how concealed this kind of thing is, as long as you have the heart, you can always find it out."

Hey, this is not at the same level as cheating, is it?How many high-level intellectual brains have you invaded! ! !

Only Sibenfu is still calm: "Specifically, 'revenge' is the plan of the Dukuta family against the Tattaglia family. At that time, Tattaglia caused heavy losses to the Dukuta family. Unfortunately, the project was halfway through. , Fantastic Beasts invaded the light star, and the human defense line shrank, so we can only give up the achievements of the light star. If you think that there is a sword of Damocles on the light star, it is a pity that what the Dukuta family abandoned is only a semi-finished weapon called ..." Sibenfer tilted his head and looked to the side.

The person next to him continued: "God's scepter."

Sibenforth nodded, and turned to look at Hogan: "This is a destructive weapon. If we can control it, indeed, for Tataglia, it can be called their hanging sword."

Hogan shook his head in his heart, no, no.My mother has nothing to do with the Dukuta family, and it is not an honorable responsibility to grow a family.

Just after hearing a few words from his mother, he can be sure that his mother is a stronger and more independent woman than he could have imagined. She has experienced many thrilling things that he doesn't know. Slim can't even be called a supporting character.There is no doubt that he is an opportunist trying to get a piece of the muddy water.

Now, he believed almost instinctively, the place where his mother was going for herself was a star of light.

"I'm going to take a look at Guangxing." Hogan said.

Sibenfur vetoed it: "Fantasy beasts are more deadly than you can imagine. They can directly attack the spirit of creatures. Even after decades, the empire has not developed an effective spiritual defense weapon. In the dream, no one can come back."

Hogan shook his head: "I will definitely go."

Sibbenfer's eyes widened—actually, this expression that harmed his majesty was suitable for him—and said: "What about Cedric and Shuxiu? These two poor little birds."

Cedric was dissatisfied with his choice of words: "== You are really not suitable to play a kind elder."

Sibenforth said: "Are you sure you don't stop your partner? I'm old, and I don't want to fight in person most of the time."

What about growing old and growing strong?

Cedric shrugged and patted Hogan on the shoulder: "I'll go with him."

Sibenforth said, "What did you say?"

Cedric said, "We'll go to the stars together."

Sibenforth said, "Can you say it again?"

Cedric said with a "say it again, say it again" expression: "I will go wherever he goes."

"..." Sibenforth said, "Go, tell Roft, I can't control the family affairs anymore, I can't control it anymore."

The Dukuta family did not have the opportunity to argue for too long, and Tattaglia moved quickly. Obviously, they had to force the Dukutas to hand over Hogan's mother's relics.

— A few days after Adelaide stormed off, Lieutenant General Loft lost contact.

Sibbenfer's blood pressure started to skyrocket. He summoned the family members and sent for the family doctor at the same time. Oh God, he must have leftovers. He's going to lose control.

"Signal shielding must be signal shielding." The technicians of the Dukuta family swore.

Sibenforth said: "I remember that the director of the Information Department of the Military Department is named Douglas?"

Everyone Kuta nodded, and then his eyes lit up: "It's his fault!"

"Stab him to death!"

"Can you eat it for me? It is always said that the blood of the royal family is special, but I think it smells delicious!"

Uh... this young Mr. Major, what do you want to eat?

Hogan, who had just walked in the door, couldn't help but glanced at Cedric, who immediately showed a gentle smile, expressing that his recipes were definitely normal and healthy.

Siebenfer squinted at Cedric, who was busy "eyebrowing", then glared at Hogan: "Say it."

Hogan said, "I don't know what's going on either."

Cedric slapped his thigh: "It must not be Douglas who did it. The Military Information Office has long..."

Everyone was waiting for him to continue, and when they saw him stop, they all said angrily: "If you have something to say, why did you do it long ago?"

Uh...has already been invaded by Hogan.

Their skills are definitely not as good as Hogan's.

But how can this be said in public?

Sibenfer said impatiently: "Since Hogan can't do anything, let's do it the way we all do in Kuta."

Kuta way?Going to war with Tattaglia directly? !

What about recovery?Hogan thought, it's still going its own way!

Hogan said: "We are still not sure about Lieutenant General Loft's safety, and rashly provoking Tataglia may be detrimental to Lieutenant General Loft."

Sibbenforth said: "I believe Roft can take care of himself."

Hogan frowned: "You have also checked Jocelyn, right? He has a very close relationship with Douglas. Over the years, he has sent a lot of news to the royal family and Tattaglia, and it is very likely that he has planted an eyeliner inside the Dukuta family. Rove Are the people around the special lieutenant general reliable, can you be sure that there will be no more betrayers?"

Sibenfor looked at him and said coldly: "If there is an accident, I will get his body back."

The originally harmonious atmosphere in the room stagnated suddenly, and everyone looked at Sibenfer silently.

Sibenfu raised his head and said: "It is the honor of our Dukuta family to die in battle."

The Kutas lowered their eyelids.

Cedric's uncle, Ernest, who used to be quite jealous of his father, said in a low voice, unbelievable: "Roft is your son, my brother—my lord."

Sibenfur's fingers trembled, but his proud instinct made him hang his neck and continue: "No one can override the will of the family, including you who inherit my genes. The Dukuta family will not do it for Loft Submit to Tattaglia, the Dukuta family is a family that bears glory."

Hogan thought for a while, called the family doctor who was waiting outside, and said politely, "You should rest first."

Sibenfer: "?"

Hogan and Cedric looked at each other, Cedric nodded, and coughed a few times in a strange way, all Kutas looked up at Cedric, stood up messily after a while and said, "Yeah, yeah , Mr. General, rest first, we will come back tomorrow."

Sibenfur: "..."

Hogan and Cedric opened the door ahead and went out.

Sibenfur: "..."

The Dukutas also went out with Hogan and Cedric.Only Ernest was left in the room.

Sibenfur: "..."

The dedicated doctor said sternly: "It's time for you to follow me to the examination room, Mr. Sibbenfer."

Ernest looked at the doctor, then at the departing Dukutas, fidgeting and twisting his body, seeing that the last person was about to close the door before leaving, so he stood up quickly, forgetting to tell Sibenfer , ran away directly.

Sibenfur: "..."

Doctor: "Your reaction has slowed down again. I am very worried about you. Have you really taken the medicine as prescribed by the doctor?"

Sibenfur: "..."

Doctor: "Take medicine every day, you really shouldn't forget that!"

Leaving the old house, Hogan drove and took Cedric and all the Kutas to their home to reconvene the meeting. The clues of the "Sword of Damocles" must not be handed over to Tattaglia, and Lieutenant General Loft cannot be left alone. He is the pillar of the Dukuta family. He has lost contact. How can anyone sleep?Sibenfur is "sick" again, let him be quiet first, let the juniors think about the troublesome things.

Although there were many elders of Cedric in Capital Kuta who came to discuss the plan to rescue Lieutenant General Loft, such as his biological uncle Ernest, these people seemed to be led by Cedric.

Looking in the rearview mirror at Cedric who was discussing with his clansmen, Hogan had another doubt in his heart.

Cedric didn't seem in a hurry at all. Even if he had confidence in Lieutenant General Loft's ability, such a performance would be too calm.
