Chapter 335 Invitation

"Please... open your eyes..."

Looking at her companion, the girl muttered to herself, holding the syringe in her hand tightly and putting it on her companion's arm.

But...

"No, the medical nanomachines for emergency treatment are not enough..."

Looking at the instrument information next to her, the girl gritted her teeth. They were originally special investigators of GOTT, but now their information has been erased, and their identities have changed from investigators to wanted criminals. The entire galaxy is looking for them. In this case, the two had nowhere to go and could only barely escape to this abandoned colony satellite.

However, as if things didn't go well, they fought a battle with the pursuers who were chasing them on the way. Although they repelled the pursuers, her companions were also injured.

This can't go on.

Thinking of this, the girl stood up and hugged her petite companion in her arms. Although this colony satellite has been abandoned, there may still be a medical station that can be used. As long as she can find it, she can still be saved!

Having made a decision, the girl left her battleship with her compatriots in her arms.

However, what the girl didn't expect was that just as the hatch opened and she stepped out of the battleship, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared from the side.

"Ah, so the door is here, I was wondering where to ring the doorbell..."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stuck his head out and looked at the two of them.

"——————!!"

Seeing Duanmu Huai's appearance, the girl was shocked. She held her partner in one hand and tried to take out a pistol to fight back with the other hand, but at this moment, Duanmu Huai grabbed her hand.

"Calm down, little girl, we are not your enemy."

"You guys?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, the girl looked to the side in surprise, and then found that the entire battleship had been surrounded by a group of extremely tall soldiers wearing black armor. Seeing this scene, she gritted her teeth and then put down the gun in her hand.

"Aren't you... GOTT's pursuers?"

"In short, I'm here to find... uh..."

Duanmu Huai looked at the girl and then at her companion in her arms.

"What happened to her?"

"She is injured and must be treated immediately."

Although he didn't know where these people came from, his partner's life was more important than anything else. If they could save their companions, then... surrendering didn't matter.

"She is injured... I know."

Hearing the girl's answer, Duanmu Huai nodded, and then he made a gesture, and soon, the soldiers around him put down their weapons. Then Duanmu Huai's hand flashed, and the next moment, the healing angel fell from the sky and appeared beside Duanmu Huai.

"???!"

The girl was also shocked to see a person with wings and a halo on his head suddenly appear in front of her. She hugged her companion in surprise and subconsciously took a step back.

And Duanmu Huai looked at the healing angel and said.

"She is injured, please help to treat her."

"Okay, master."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's order, the healing angel nodded, then she looked at the petite figure in the girl's arms and raised her hands.

"Please leave your wounded body on the battlefield to me. As a healer sent by God, I will definitely keep the pain away from you..."

As the healing angel spoke, a golden light descended from the sky and enveloped the two of them. At the same time, the healing angel spoke again.

"Please give these tired warriors the healing of love! Close your eyes and give your whole body to this light... In this way, the fire of courage in your body will surely be lit again."

To be honest, in the eyes of the girl, the scene in front of her was simply ridiculous. However, the words of the angel carried a certain charm that calmed people's hearts. She subconsciously closed her eyes and felt the light in front of her. Under this light, the girl felt as if she was immersed in a comfortable hot spring, and a fiery power surged from her body, even dispelling the original pain and fatigue...

"Eclair..."

However, at this moment, the girl heard the voice of her companion. She opened her eyes and saw the girl in her arms looking at her blankly.

"What happened?"

"You woke up?! Lumiel!"

Next, since Duanmu Huai showed his kindness, even though he looked scary, the girl welcomed him into her warship because he saved her partner. Of course, it was more like a large interstellar fighter than a warship.

"Aren't you a pursuer of GOTT, or a mercenary who came for our wanted notice?"

"I did see the wanted notice, but it's not important. To put it simply, I came here mainly to find this person..."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai looked at the petite girl who looked like a ten-year-old girl.

"This lady?"

"Yes?"

"Isn't your hairstyle like this?"

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai raised his hand and turned it around his head.

That's right, this is why Duanmu Huai can remember this girl. Her hairstyle is very special and unique, that is, she tied a single ponytail on the side of her head, and this single ponytail is also curled. Because this hairstyle is basically no one has ever seen, it can be said that she is unique, so when Duanmu Huai thinks of her, the impression of this hairstyle is deeper than anything else.

But the girl in front of him is...

"Ah, I was like this before."

Although she didn't know why Duanmu Huai asked this question, the girl nodded, then took out her ID and opened it and handed it over. Duanmu Huai took the ID and looked at it carefully--well, it was indeed this hairstyle, it was her.

"Thank you, then let's introduce ourselves. My name is Duanmu Huai, and I am the judge of the court of trial."

"Court of trial?"

Hearing this, the two girls became nervous again.

"Are you from the Universal Planetary Union?"

"I will explain my origins to you in detail later. Now, may I ask your names?"

"…………………………"

Although they were very wary of Duanmu Huai, the two girls still reported their names. The girl with long brown hair, tall figure, and who looked like a sixteen-year-old girl was named Aclair, and the girl Duanmu Huai was looking for, who had purple hair and looked only about ten years old, was Lumiel.

They "used to be" ES members of GOTT, and of course, they are now wanted fugitives.

"It's really not easy to find you."

Speaking of how to find them, Duanmu Huai also complained.

"We monitored the communications and signals of the entire galaxy, and finally found some clues, so we came here to try our luck. Fortunately, we were lucky, otherwise I would have to go to GOTT..."

"Uh........."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's complaints, the two girls were speechless and didn't know what to say. But soon, Lumiel coughed lightly and regained her calm expression.

"So, Mr. Duanmu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"It's like this, well... For now, I hope you can work for our Tribunal."

Originally, Duanmu Huai thought it was hard to dig into this corner, but now that the other party has already demolished the corner, why not quickly take it over to demolish other people's west wall to repair your east wall?

"Tribunal... Sorry, please forgive me for being frank, I have never heard of this organization."

"Of course, after all, we are not here... Well, it's not convenient to talk here, so why not go to our battleship, and then I will explain the situation to you in detail."

Faced with Duanmu Huai's invitation, the two girls discussed it and nodded. After all, they are now wanted criminals in the entire galaxy, and they are worried wherever they go. Although the other party looks scary, and the Tribunal organization sounds super suspicious, no matter what, the other party is still quite frank when communicating with them, so the two decided to follow Duanmu Huai to see the situation first, and then talk about it.

Soon, the two drove their high-speed cruiser Ramius away from the abandoned colony satellite and followed Duanmu Huai's gunboat to the battleship in the universe.

When the two saw the Moon-class cruiser hovering outside the colony satellite, they were also shocked. Not to mention the peculiar and gorgeous appearance and shape of this battleship, its hugeness alone was enough to shock the two.

"Oh my God..."

The brown-haired girl Eclair stared at the magnificent battleship in front of her.

"How big is this battleship?"

"Five kilometers long... 0.8 kilometers wide... Even in the Planetary Union, no fleet has such a battleship..."

At this moment, Lumiel's face became much more serious. If they were just skeptical at the beginning, then now, Lumiel can be sure that the power of this Inquisition is absolutely terrible. After all, such a huge battleship is not the same as those of the Planetary Union. It is simply a comparison between an elephant and a puppy.

And how can a force that can own such a huge battleship be a small force?

But why have I never heard of it?

Such doubts reached their peak after entering the interior of the luxurious and Gothic-style battleship.

"Hey, Lumiel, we are basically entering a church."

Looking at the magnificent decorations and solemn cabins around, Eclair was confused. It was the first time she saw such a strange space battleship. After all, the universe planetary union is a standard warship, and there is no such style.

"Hey... I think they should not belong to the power of the universe planetary union..."

Lumiel also said while looking around. When Eclair heard her answer at this moment, he suddenly had a whim.

"Could it be... aliens?"

"... This......"

Lumiel originally wanted to deny it, but after thinking about it carefully... This possibility is really great!

After all, not to mention the man's fierce appearance, his height was far higher than that of ordinary humans. Even the soldiers were the same, and the armor and symbols they wore seemed completely incompatible with the United Planets. Not to mention that there is actually a skull symbol on it - which serious force would put a human skull as a symbol on their armor! Aren't these usually used by evil forces such as pirates?

Thinking of this, the two of them became uneasy again.

Although a little uneasy, the two of them came to the reception room and met Duanmu Huai again.

"First of all, I would like to ask you two why you are wanted."

Looking at the two girls, Duanmu Huai first raised this question. Of course he hoped to dig out Lumière, but he also wanted to know the reason why these two people were wanted. After all, in the process of searching for the two of them, Duanmu Huai also conducted some investigation of this galaxy. From a certain perspective, this galaxy has become a cosmic civilization. They have established an organization called the United Planets. To put it simply, this organization is like the United Nations, and the owner of a planet in the galaxy is equivalent to a country. Rulers do this.

GOTT is also a government department under the United Planets, but it is different from the tax bureau that Duanmuhuai thought. GOTT's scope of authority seems to be closer to the IMF and WTO, but they have certain powers of force, like Eclair and Lumière. In this way, it is similar to the Interpol police in Hollywood movies, who can appear in various countries at will to investigate some cases or carry out protection and review...

For this kind of person, it is generally difficult to be expelled from the organization unless he makes a mistake.

Of course, if it were a Hollywood movie, it would be a scene where the protagonist accidentally discovers a shocking conspiracy, and then the enemy is by his side, and then uses his power to frame the protagonist. Finally, the protagonist escapes, finds evidence to defeat the enemy, and then returns.

I don’t know who these two are from.

"this……………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Lumière was obviously hesitant, while Eclair patted her chest.

"Let me tell you, Lumière, if there is anything to be embarrassed about, it's not a bad thing!"

So next, Eclair angrily explained the situation to Duan Muhuai.

In fact, the reason why the two were dismissed from their posts and wanted for investigation is very simple - the ruling body of a planet entrusted GOTT to send people to help quell the rebellion, and then Eclair and Lumière went to that planet. As a result, when they arrived on the planet, they discovered that the civilians there lived like slaves. Because of this, the people could not bear this kind of life and chose to demonstrate and protest.

Later, when the people came to protest in front of the ruling body, the noble wanted to suppress it with force. Seeing that the other party actually used weapons against this group of unarmed civilians, Eclair couldn't help it. In the end, she defeated the attempt to suppress the civilians. army, and in the end the ruler of that planet had no choice but to flee.

Afterwards, they angrily sued the Planetary Alliance, and then the Planetary Alliance put pressure on GOTT, so they were wanted.

"Oh I got it."

After listening to Eclare's story, Duanmu Huai suddenly understood. To put it simply, this was tantamount to a civil war in a certain country. Then the United Nations sent peacekeeping investigators there, but the latter sided with the opposition and drove away the ruler. .

It would be strange if they don't go to the United Nations to sue you!

Since it is a political issue, there is nothing we can do about it.

As I said before, the United Planets is like the United Nations. It is a joint organization formed by representatives of various forces. However, the sovereignty of each planetary force is still decided by itself. Therefore, strictly speaking, Eclair's actions are considered an infringement of the sovereignty of other countries. Naturally. It cannot be left alone.

GOTT ordered them to be dismissed and investigated, but there was nothing they could do.

"Um……………"

After listening to Eclare's story, Duanmuhuai fell into deep thought. He didn't think that the other party was lying, but how should I put it? Duanmuhuai felt that Eclair seemed... a bit naive...

Of course, that noble was not doing human affairs either.

Although Eclair said it with a Liangshan temperament of "a hero does a hero's job," Duanmuhuai could imagine that Lumière must have taken action inside, otherwise it would not be the two of them who were being pursued at this moment.

Besides, this combination of mindlessness and unhappiness is considered a standard feature of many game movie animations, right?

In fact, for Duanmu Huai, Eclair's character is more suitable for hanging out with Salamanders or Smurfs.

But having a Salamander in the Inquisition doesn't seem like a bad thing?

Of course, this is not enough.

This is like applying for a job. Applying for a job is actually a two-way selection process. Duanmu Huai also needs to evaluate them and see if they are willing to join the Tribunal. This is very important. What the Inquisition does is often quite cruel. If they can't accept it, then it's better to turn around and leave.

Otherwise, keeping it will be a disaster.

The same is true in the game. Each NPC has its own moral stance. If the player makes a choice that the NPC doesn't like, the NPC's favorability will decrease. In the end, the NPC will rebel or even run away.

So when choosing, you must figure out where the NPC's bottom line is, what they like and what they don't like.

It's the same in reality. It's just a matter of defecting. If you are contaminated by Chaos and become an enemy of your allies, that will be a real trouble.

And the game Xinghai OL doesn't care about people. The NPC's favorability is hidden, and players can't see it at all. And there are many NPCs who are dissatisfied, but still smile on the surface. Many players have suffered in this regard, but of course, the official can't bear to see the players suffer. So they very considerately launched a "prophecy crystal" in the mall. Players only need to buy the crystal and designate an NPC to use it, and then they can see his favorability and current feelings towards the player.

This thing is a consumable, which can only be used once, and the effect is only once, and it can only be used on one person.

Well, and you have to pay krypton gold to buy it.

It's also very expensive.

Damn, it's just a trick of profiteers.

Forget it... Now I can only get angry when I think of these. Let's take a look at the present. Anyway, since the other party has shown sincerity, it's time for me to introduce them to the corporate culture of the Tribunal.

Now it depends on whether the Tribunal is their choice for them.
