The cheerful twin sisters shuttled through the cornfield, working together to deliver the basket they received from Bisquet and Mikazuki to the roadside, and after pouring the corn inside into a larger basket, they turned around and jumped.
He ran back along the way he came and continued the next round of delivery work.
On the hillside on the other side of the corn field, the two of them were also watching this scene.
"If Nunnally could move freely, she would probably be running as happily as them."
Looking at the twin sisters walking through the cornfield, Lelouch couldn't help but sigh.
"Why did you leave without saying goodbye? Yuffie and the others are all worried about you. Especially President Mireille and the others from the academy."
There was a hint of inquiry in Lei Mingkai's eyes, which Lelouch could see clearly.
My original departure without saying goodbye would indeed make many people worried.
However, when Euphemia ascended the throne of the Brittanian Empire, that world had already ushered in changes.
Such a result is acceptable to Lelouch.
"I just want to find Nunnally as soon as possible."
Lelouch narrowed his gaze slightly, not wanting Lei Mingkai to discover his mental activities.
"Besides, after seeing such a world, both Yuffie and Cornelia will probably be too busy to care about other things! What's more, the knight who is supposed to be the queen's right-hand man is arrogantly showing up.
Wandering in this strange world.”
The tit-for-tat confrontation that had just subsided quietly came online again.
However, Lei Mingkai had no intention of getting entangled.
"It was just an accident. Lelouch. Just like the person you met back then."
That person?
The "Emperor Lelouch" who was exactly the same as himself but came from a different world and was killed by himself?
Lelouch's eyes fluctuated slightly, apparently recalling the past when that person took away everything from him.
"Accident? Maybe so! But, in my opinion, all these accidents are traceable. Lei Mingkai."
After slowing down, Lelouch's eyes slowly moved and landed on the girls sitting opposite each other in the distance, exchanging certain topics.
"It seems that the Lord Knight has fallen in love with the Queen Development Game."
Lei Mingkai frowned slightly, but there was nothing he could do.
"Oh. I didn't expect you to think so too."
Zero's echo came from the side, causing Lelouch to look over.
After looking at it for a while, Lelouch showed a look of surprise on his face.
"The Holy Lion of the Empire seems to have grown a lot stronger!"
Zero shook his head and hummed a few times.
"You think I think so! It's better to do this because of Kai!"
"Really? As expected, Sir Knight's accidents keep happening one after another!"
Lelouch's sigh did not last long before Lei Mingkai's counterattack began.
"So, what about yours? Lelouch. Don't tell me that after you left without saying goodbye, you traveled around the world looking for Nunnally?"
Lei Mingkai stared at Lelouch's expression closely, trying to understand what Lelouch was thinking at the moment.
"Haha. What if I say yes?"
Before Lei Mingkai could refute, Lelouch denied what he said.
"Yes. This is a lie! It's just a lie to a child."
Lelouch took a few steps back, distanced himself from Lei Mingkai and Zero, then turned back to look at the valley in the distance.
The valley where Lei Mingkai appeared in this world, his eyes were unusually deep.
"Knight, I am very happy to meet friends from my hometown in this other world. However, it is time for this short reunion to end."
"Lelouch. You're not the only one trying to find Nunnally."
"Yes! But it only makes sense if I find it myself, doesn't it?"
Lelouch took a few steps back again.
"Okay! That's the end of the touching goodbye! Lei Mingkai. The earth has what you want. No doubt about it! This is your thank you gift for bringing the meteor shower!"
"Thank you?!"
In an instant, Lelouch's words reminded Lei Mingkai of the crystal coffin he saw when the Longtooth Zero tried his best to escape from the strange space, and the face that appeared inside.
"Lelouch! Your target is her?!"
Suddenly, a scream sounded, tearing the tranquility of the cornfield and attracting Lei Mingkai's attention.
By the time Lei Mingkai reacted, Lelouch's figure had already disappeared.
And where Lelouch originally stood, a pure white lion appeared.
It is zero type.
I saw Zero raised his head and looked around, his golden eyes full of doubts.
"Gone!"
When the scream came from just now, the Zero activated instantly and immediately rushed towards Lelouch, trying to catch him.
As a result, it was still a step slower.
"Forget it! If Lelouch dares to appear in front of me, he must be well prepared. Now, we have lost the chance to keep him. Let's go back and see what's going on!"
"Hmm! It shouldn't be something happened to Lux. I feel that she is fine."
Although he gave up tracking Lelouch, Zero still looked back reluctantly.
The other side of the cornfield.
On that dirt road, a group of people were confronting each other.
On one side were two young men standing next to a gray-blue car.
On the other side were Mikazuki and Biscat, who were protecting Kuchi and Kraka who were covered in mud behind them, and further behind were Sakura Pretzel and Lux.
"It's really nerve-wracking! Galio, is your neck okay?"
The blond man nodded slightly towards everyone, apologized, and then looked at his partner.
"Ahem...still, not bad!"
The purple-haired man coughed a few times and responded in a hoarse voice. But his eyes never left the little boy who almost choked him unconscious just now, Mikazuki Ogus.
"Sorry! This child is very impulsive sometimes. Especially when it concerns people close to him."
The old Sakura spoke again and took the initiative to apologize.
"No! We were also negligent here. When passing this farmland, we failed to notice the movement on both sides. This incident was indeed caused by our unauthorized entry into this farmland. I'm very sorry!"
The blond man showed a very good demeanor, which instantly resolved the somewhat stalemate between the two parties.
But the purple-haired man who had just taken a breath suddenly became furious, raised his fist and hit Mikazuki.
Unexpectedly, a gust of wind blew up, attracting countless pieces of corn stalks.
"roar!"
Among the flying pieces of corn stalks, a huge and ferocious pure white beast crashed to the ground, blowing the purple-haired man backwards. It was not until the blond man reached out to support him from behind that he could stand still.
"What...so what..."
In anger, the purple-haired man tore off the pieces of corn stalks that blew into his face, but was frightened by the sight in front of him.
"Lion...Lion?!"
"A pure white lion? There are also lions here on Mars?"
For the two people who were born on Earth, the king of beasts living on the prairie was naturally familiar to them.
It's just that they didn't expect that on this planet, which is hundreds of millions of kilometers away from the earth at its furthest point, they would see ferocious beasts that are only found on the earth.
"Lux, Mikazuki, Biskate, are you okay?"
In surprise, a strange male voice came from behind the pure white lion.
"No! It's okay, Your Excellency. It's just that Kuchi and Kraka fell down. It's nothing serious."
The momentum of Zero's appearance also startled Biskate, who quickly explained.
Otherwise, just relying on Zero's fierce appearance would be enough to scare ordinary people out of fear.
"Yeah?"
Lei Mingkai and Lux exchanged glances, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, they walked out from behind the Zero and stood in front of the young men.
"Sorry! I hope I didn't scare you just now!"
The new young man with black hair made the two people show a hint of caution.
"No. We can understand it. After all, this is an accident that no one wants to happen. Fortunately, this accident did not hurt anyone."
The blond man took a step forward and proactively extended his right hand towards Lei Mingkai.
"I am McGillis Farid. What is your name?"
"Lei Mingkai. Nice to meet you."
The moment their right hands held each other's hands, they separated in a tacit understanding.
Then, McGillis raised his eyes and looked at the Zero, but quickly looked away under the warning from the Zero.
"I didn't expect to see such a majestic lion under Mars. Moreover, I'm afraid even the kings of beasts on Earth can't compare to your lion!"
"How did you transport this lion to Mars? As far as I know, no matter which chamber of commerce it is, it will not take the risk of stuffing such a big beast into a spaceship!"
Galio's attention was almost drawn to Type Zero.
Even though mankind has moved towards deep space, in fact every space voyage must go through strict resource calculations before it can continue.
Livestock breeding, such as the cost of feeding and the cumbersome follow-up procedures, simply cannot be carried out in a small spacecraft.
It would be fine if there were one or two small cats and dogs, but the lion in front of me, which was as big as a hill, was not something that any spacecraft could afford.
"Transported to Mars?"
Lei Mingkai raised his eyebrows, and then raised his hand to pat Zero's thick, snow-white hair on his temples.
"The Zero was not shipped to Mars. So it was my partner from the beginning!"
"roar!"
As if in response to Lei Mingkai's words, Zero also let out a threatening growl.
"Okay! Galio, let's stop being curious!"
McGillis stopped Galio's next move, then nodded towards Remingkai, took steps, bypassed Remingkai and Zero, and came to the place protected by Mikazuki and Bisquet.
In front of Kuchi and Kraka.
"I'm very sorry! I frightened you! Although this is a bit inappropriate, I only brought these things with me. I hope it can make the two lovely ladies feel at ease."
Inside the beautifully packaged transparent bag are candies wrapped in sheets of brightly colored wrapping paper.
As soon as he appeared, he attracted all the attention of the twin sisters.
"Thanks!"
The storm stopped.
However, before leaving, McGillis turned around and looked at Remingkai and Lux who returned to Remingkai.
"I never expected to meet such an outstanding person in this place. I hope we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future!"
After a pause, McGillis said again:
"If you need anything, you can contact the Gallarhorn Mars branch directly and tell me my name. As long as it's not too troublesome, I might be able to help."
Looking at the gradually shrinking crowd and the pure white lion in the rearview mirror, Galio frowned as he held the steering wheel with both hands.
"In the end, we didn't find anything? Except for the shabby land that became dilapidated."
His golden hair was blown by the cold wind pouring in from the car window, and McGillis' eyes gradually became sharp.
"No. In fact, we have already found out almost everything we want to know."
McGillis looked at the undulating dirt road ahead and said slowly:
"The land that was torn apart by the battle is undoubtedly evidence of the large-scale battles that took place in the past few days. Moreover, there should have been militia organizations nearby. Galio, the one who choked you just now
The boy is a young soldier who has been installed with the Alaya Consciousness System."
"As far as I know, on Mars, no, in the chamber of commerce that is active in the route between earth and fire starting from the death channel, pirates like to use various means to install the Alaya Consciousness System on those
On the young man’s body, fight for them.”
Galio suddenly stepped on the brakes, then reluctantly parked the car on the side of the road, quickly opened the door and rushed out, holding on to the stones on the side of the road while retching.
"Can't accept it? Galio. This is the reality we see."
Holding back the discomfort caused by his already turbulent stomach, Galio said with an ugly face:
"How is it possible to accept it? The act of transplanting foreign objects into the body is simply heresy! It is proof of impurity!"
"Is it unclean? Really? Go back! Galio. The militia organization that once existed will probably set foot in the universe when it is reborn. At that time, Connor, the leader of the Mars branch, will also take action. That's us.
Opportunity!"
After getting out of the car and turning around to look in the direction of the farm, McGillis couldn't help but see that figure in front of his eyes.
"Gario, in fact, these are just common sense in this remote area. What deserves our more attention is the man. The man who raises the pure white lion."
The young man standing in front of the pure white lion may be entangled with Gjallarhorn in the future.
However, this will have to wait until the reborn militia organization successfully establishes itself in the universe under his leadership before it will be qualified to become an enemy of Gjallarhorn.
