Chapter 1558 I Became a Lackey of the Imperial Court
Claire Belmont was sure that Miss Fina Li must have been waiting for him and his group here long ago, and she must have heard the news from Yani.
Even so, under Yani's command, he subconsciously slowed down and pulled over, stopping right in front of Miss Li and automatically opening the door. The other party looked at the projection "sitting" on the co-pilot, pondered for a moment, smiled, and sat directly in the back seat.
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Claire." She greeted the driver in the way that Yu Lian addressed her.
Claire immediately felt a sense of intimacy: "It's not hard. Miss Fina, in this situation, seeing that you are still healthy is the best news. I can also explain to Brother Yu Lian."
Yani added: "Yes, for your brother Yu Lian, you must protect Fina in a while."
Claire had just started to move forward again, and he almost drove the car into the flower bed next to him. It took him nearly half a minute to get his temper back, and he said cautiously, "In other words, Miss Fina will act with me?"
"I won't act. I'm just a second-ring newcomer, and I can't do anything." Fina said.
Princess Hong Qiangwei glanced at her bestie meaningfully and smiled, "Yes, she won't participate in the action, but she'll just be a witness. She's the military attaché stationed at the Blue Star Community, and she's also a great artist with many supporters. No one is more qualified than her to stand as a witness from a third-party standpoint. At that time, Miss Fina will carefully record our course of action, leaving it as third-party objective evidence and historical materials for archiving, and maybe she can even edit a very exciting documentary. Claire, remember to act a little more handsome."
The director also said, "I'll try my best. In fact, the Blue Star Community is currently an observer country of the Interstellar Security Council, and is discussing the issue of guerrillas setting up a branch in our country."
In fact, this has always been one of the core diplomatic issues between the Alliance and the Community. If the war hadn't suddenly broken out, the first branch of the Guerrilla Association on Earth might have been built.
"But the association will always come, this is determined by the times. However, as an officer of the community, I do have the obligation to ensure that the one who will enter the earth is really an international joint organization that does not interfere in internal affairs and takes the protection of civilian security as its own responsibility." Fina said solemnly in a serious tone.
Her words are indeed very reasonable, and Claire was almost speechless. However, as a person who is not lacking in professionalism, he still whispered: "... This will offend many people."
This is equivalent to taking pictures of the ugly appearance of the alliance's "internal fighting" for outsiders to keep. Of course, it will cause dissatisfaction among many people.
"You have already cut Uncle Finn into a human stick. Are you still afraid of offending people?" Yani said beside her.
Fina in the back row was slightly startled: "Finn? Is it the Finn I imagined?"
"Yes, it is the Admiral Finn Berenkast you imagined. My uncle, the Minister of the Alliance Space Security Department and the Director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and the Director of the Internal Security Mobile Force." Yani said.
Fina also showed an expression of amazement.
"Chopping off the legs can't be considered a human stick. Can chopping off the psychic's work be considered cutting off the human stick? Besides, he is not disabled. At most, he will just lie in the petri dish for a while. I think that during the process of recuperation and serving his sentence, he should have time and space to think about the past. This is the most important thing."
Fina smiled and said, "Even so, you are really a tough man who is decisive in killing! I respect you very much."
Claire didn't hear any yin and yang elements in the other party's words, and was immediately moved. He really felt that his sister-in-law was indeed a decent lady who could get along with her, much better than a certain sarcastic little devil.
Brother Yu Lian is virtuous and blessed! Claire couldn't help but sigh.
While thinking, he had already driven out of the city of Gem Coast, drove through the automatic checkpoint on the coast, and got on a bridge. This is a magnificent building with a bridge deck of 100 meters wide, which is a miracle after it extends to the sea level. In fact, for civilizations before the cosmic era, the total length of such trunk lines and branch lines exceeds 10,000 kilometers, connecting the huge bridge network on both sides of the Falling Star Sea, which can only be described as a miracle.
In the pre-cosmic era, it was even difficult to imagine how the structure of such a bridge would be maintained.
After getting on the cross-sea bridge, removing the speed limit of the engine, and completing the docking with the anti-gravity auxiliary system on the bridge, most civilian vehicles can reach the Sea City in three to five hours, or spend half a day directly crossing the sea to the continent of the other hemisphere.
Of course, there are also scattered branches on the bridge, leading to important cities on the Falling Star Sea. Among them, of course, it also includes the headquarters of the Guerrilla Association on Lehrman Island.
It is a beautiful island on the Falling Star Sea, and it only takes about 20 minutes to drive from the Gem Coast.
Everyone's car quickly completed the docking with the anti-gravity auxiliary unit at the base of the bridge and entered the smooth mode of semi-automatic driving. At this moment, the convoy was also unknowingly adding new members. Soon, a long convoy of more than 20 vehicles appeared on the bridge.
Except for the first three vehicles, all the new members were military armored vehicles painted in cold hard gray, which was enough to fit a fully armed squad in the carriage.
Claire had no doubt that the passenger compartments of these vehicles were now filled with soldiers armed with live ammunition.
In the sky on both sides of the bridge, there were also two anti-gravity armored airships for private use in the atmosphere, flying at a constant speed with a low profile, as if they were escorting the convoy forward.
As for the ocean, Claire could guess without even sensing that there must be submarines cruising slowly in the water. Whether it was used to transport troops or provide fire support, there would be no shortage of them.
Look at this grand display of troops. Needless to say, of course, it could only be aimed at the headquarters of the Guerrilla Association. Claire had no doubt that if the operation did not go smoothly, there would be thousands of cannons falling from the sky.
"Are you going to overturn the headquarters of the association?" Fina said.
"This is fair and aboveboard. Please make sure to shoot the material well, so that the whole universe can see that this is a fair and aboveboard national behavior, not a lynching."
Claire's eyes swept across the internal security force marks on the portholes of the armored vehicles and airships, and his heart was filled with guilt for a moment. A quarter of an hour ago, he had just looked at their commander's legs.
"It's only been a quarter of an hour, and you've taken over the command of the Internal Guard?" Claire sighed.
"The Internal Guard is not anyone's private army. Their old superior has been investigated. The more times like this, the more they need to take decisive actions to prove it. The new head of the security department will definitely let the leaders of the combat units understand this truth." Yani looked Claire up and down: "In addition, it's not me, it's you."
"Me?"
"Yes, it's you who took over the command of these internal guards." Yani said.
How did it become me? Claire was about to express his objection, but suddenly realized that he seemed to be wearing a brigadier general uniform of the Internal Guard.
"Wearing this uniform, isn't it clear who is in charge?" Yani said.
Claire then realized that he wore this uniform not only for the convenience of entering the Jiulianxing Building, but also to achieve this effect.
So, is this also in your calculation?
Claire looked up and looked at Princess Rainbow Rose with shock. There was no fear in his heart, only deep panic, and even a little numbness.
The director lady beside him couldn't help but laugh: "Indeed, brother Claire, the uniform you are wearing and the internal security troops surrounding the association headquarters, don't you give people the feeling that the court's lackeys are suppressing the knights?"
"The Guerrilla Association is indeed investigating the problems in Ice Valley City. There are also people from the association in the big parade on the Gem Coast, maintaining law and order in various places." Yani said.
"He, they also have people participating in the parade?" Claire was shocked.
"Just maintaining law and order. At least that's what the association said. However, I did hear that many guerrillas support Mrs. Parrotin very much, and they also said that they would go to be her bodyguards with their own dry food, and protect her until she becomes the commander-in-chief."
"They are really a group of people who have gotten rid of vulgar tastes." Fina expressed her respect in a new way of description, which was exactly the style of a conscientious young artist.
"Yes, he is in great spirits. I can tell from the 'original' when I hear him." Yamida smiled, but her eyes showed no joy or sadness, and she looked like a young capitalist without blood or tears.
"This situation is getting more and more complicated the more I listen!" Claire wanted to cry for a while but had no tears.
Indeed, the work of the Guerrilla Association is of a certain volunteer nature. And the purpose of these transnational mercenaries has always been to protect the safety of civilians as the top priority, and naturally they will be regarded by most ordinary people as free knights who protect them.
If it were the context of the interstellar martial arts movies on Earth, wouldn't it be a passing hero? And it's the kind that has an organization, professional skills, and experience in treatment.
You can imagine how famous he is.
And now, am I actually going to lead a group of internal security forces that are full of villains in both attire and style to suppress these free knights? What will my reputation be like after my death?
At this moment, Brigadier General Claire Belmont of the Alliance National Security Department suddenly felt only sadness, even desolation, in his heart.
…
"Lothar's thin dog! Dirty creature!" The officer of the Internal Guard, who was wearing a special mecha for street fighting, uttered a vicious curse, then raised his heavy iron foot and stomped heavily on the chest of the Lothar warrior under his feet.
The body of the dying rebel soldier was squeezed flat. He died in extreme pain, his neck was torn by the huge pressure, and his head rolled out of his body.
"Last warning! Put down your weapons!" The sergeant of the Internal Guard, who executed the soldier in an extremely cruel way, pounded the impact hammer stained with blood, flesh and brains on the ground. Behind him, dozens of sturdy mecha warriors were filing in, and by the way, they finished off their targets.
Many rebel soldiers who were actually only seriously injured were executed mercilessly. Under the impact of the "cold weapons" that could blow through the armor, their bodies were torn into pieces, and it was a horrible sight.
The rebel soldiers of the Burning Legion felt extremely sad when seeing their comrades who didn't even want to die in peace, but they still stayed at their posts and refused to give in.
The Internal Security Force officer holding the impact hammer said coldly: "This is the 48th underground floor of the Capitol. You are just a group of rats stuck in the bellows. It's too late for you to do anything now. Even if you want to detonate a three-phase bomb in that room, it can't hurt this kind of building at all."
