Chapter 334 Invitation

   "Please...open your eyes..."

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

but………

   "No, medical nanomachines for first aid are not enough..."

  Looking at the equipment information next to her, the girl clenched her teeth. They were originally GOTT's special investigators, 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 colonial satellite.

   However, the room leaked and it rained all night. On the way, they had a battle with the pursuers who were chasing them. Although they repelled the pursuers, her companion was also injured.

   Can't go on like this.

  Thinking of this, the girl stood up and hugged her petite companion in her arms. Although this colonial satellite has been abandoned, there may still be a medical station that can be used, as long as it can be found, then 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 when the hatch opened and she just stepped out of the battleship, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared from the side.

   "Ah, so the door is here, I was still thinking about where to ring the doorbell..."

  While talking, Duanmu Huai poked his head out and looked towards the two of them.

   "———!"

  Seeing Duanmuhuai's appearance, the girl was startled. She hugged her partner with one hand, and tried to take out a pistol with the other to fight back, but at this moment, Duanmuhuai grabbed her hand.

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

"you?"

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

   "You guys... aren't you GOTT's pursuers?"

   "To put it simply, I'm here to find...uh..."

  Duanmuhuai looked at the girl, then at the companion in her arms.

"What's up with her?"

   "She was injured and must be treated immediately."

  Although I don't know the origin of these people, but now the life of my partner is more important than anything else. If they can save their companions, then...it doesn't matter if they surrender.

   "I'm hurt... I know."

  Hearing the girl's answer, Duanmuhuai nodded, and then he made a gesture, and soon, the soldiers around put down their weapons. Then I saw a flash in Duanmuhuai's hand, and the next moment, the healing angel descended from the sky and appeared beside Duanmuhuai.

   "???!"

  Seeing a person with wings and a halo above his head who can fly suddenly appeared inexplicably in front of her eyes, the girl was also taken aback. She hugged her companion in surprise and took a step back subconsciously.

   Duanmu Huai looked at the healing angel and said.

   "She is injured, please help me treat it."

   "Okay, master."

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

   "Your body that is scarred and scarred on the battlefield, please leave it to me with peace of mind. As a healer sent from heaven, I will definitely keep this pain away from you..."

  Accompanied by the Healing Angel's words, a golden light descended from the sky and enveloped the two of them. At the same time, the Healing Angel spoke again.

   "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."

  Frankly speaking, in the eyes of the girl, the scene in front of her was simply ridiculous. However, there was a certain calming charm in the angel's words. She closed her eyes subconsciously, feeling the light in front of her eyes. Under this light, the girl only felt as if she was immersed in a comfortable hot spring, a fiery force gushed out from her body, and even dispelled the original soreness and fatigue...

   "Eclaire..."

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

   "What the hell... happened?"

   "Are you awake?! Lumière!"

Next, since Duanmu Huai showed his kindness, even though he was really scary, the girl still welcomed him into her battleship for the sake of the other party saving her partner—of course, she said yes Battleship, which is actually closer to a large starfighter.

   "Aren't you a follower of GOTT, or a mercenary who came here for our arrest?"

   "I saw the wanted man, but it's not important. Simply put, I came here mainly to find this..."

  While speaking, Duanmu Huai looked at the petite girl who looked like a ten-year-old girl.

   "This lady?"

"yes?"

   "Isn't your hairstyle like this?"

  While talking, Duanmuhuai raised his hand and turned it around his head.

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

  But the girl in front of her is exuding...

   "Ah, I was indeed like this before."

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

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

   "The Inquisition?"

  Hearing this, the two girls became nervous again.

   "Are you a member of the cosmic planetary union?"

   "About my origin, I will explain to you two in detail later, may I ask your names now?"

  “…………”

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

  They "used to be" members of ES where GOTT belonged, 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 bitterly.

   "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 call GOTT..."

"Well………"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's complaint, the two girls were also speechless, not knowing what to say. But soon, Lumière coughed lightly, and regained his calm expression.

   "Then, Mr. Duanmu, what can I do for you?"

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

  At first, Duanmuhuai thought that the corner was not easy to dig, but now that the other party has already demolished the corner, why don’t you quickly use it to tear down other people’s west wall to make up for your own?

   "The Inquisition... sorry, with all due respect, I have never heard of this organization."

   "Of course, we're not here after all... well, it's not convenient to talk here, why don't you go to our battleship, and then I'll explain the situation to you carefully."

   Facing Duanmuhuai's invitation, the two girls discussed it and nodded. After all, they are wanted criminals in the entire galaxy now, and they are always on tenterhooks wherever they go. Although the other party looks scary, and the organization of the Judgment Chamber sounds super suspicious, but anyway, the other party is quite frank when communicating with them. So the two decided to follow Duanmuhuai to see the situation first, and then talk.

   Soon, the two also drove their high-speed cruiser Ramus to leave the abandoned colonial satellite, and followed Duanmuhuai's gunboat to the battleship in the universe.

   And when the two saw the Lunar-class cruiser hovering outside the colonial satellite, they were also taken aback. Not to mention the strange and gorgeous appearance and shape of this battleship, its huge size alone is enough to shock the two of them.

   "My God..."

  The brown-haired girl Eclaire stared wide-eyed at the resplendent battleship in front of her.

   "How big is this battleship?"

   "Five kilometers long... 0.8 kilometers wide... Even in the United Planets, no fleet has such a warship..."

  At this moment, Lumière's expression became much more serious. If they were only suspicious at the beginning, now, Lumière can be sure that the power of this tribunal is absolutely terrifying. After all, with such a huge warship, those warships united with the planets are not all the way at all, it is simply a comparison between an elephant and a puppy.

  And a force that can own such a huge warship...how could it be a small force?

   But why, I have never heard of it?

   Such doubts reached their peak after entering the luxurious and gothic interior of the warship.

   "Hey, Lumière, we have entered the church at all."

  Looking at the resplendent decorations and solemn cabins around, Eclaire was stunned. This was the first time she had seen such a weird space battleship. After all, the Cosmic Planetary Union is a standard battleship, and there is no such style at all.

   "Hey... I don't think they should belong to the forces of the cosmic planetary union..."

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

   "Could it be... aliens?"

"……this………"

  Lumière originally wanted to deny it, but after thinking about it carefully...the possibility is really high!

   After all, not to mention the fierce appearance of that man, his height is far higher than that of ordinary humans, even those soldiers are the same, and the armor and symbols they wear seem to be completely inconsistent with the planetary union. Not to mention that there is actually a skull logo on it - which decent force would put a human skull as a logo on its armor! Isn't this usually used by dark forces like pirates?

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

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

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

  Looking at the two girls, Duanmuhuai first raised this question. Of course he hoped to lure Lumière here, but he also wanted to know the reason why the two were wanted. After all, when Duanmuhuai was looking for the two of them, he also conducted a survey of this galaxy. From a certain point of view, this galaxy has become a cosmic civilization. They have established an organization called the United Planets. Simply put, this organization is like the United Nations, and the owner of the planets in the galaxy is equal to a country Rulers like this.

And GOTT is also a government department under the Planetary Union, but it is different from the tax bureau that Duanmuhuai thought. The scope of GOTT 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 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 not because they have made mistakes, and it is difficult to be expelled from the organization.

  Of course, if it’s a Hollywood movie, it must be that the protagonist accidentally discovers a terrifying conspiracy, then the enemy is by his side, and then uses his own power to frame the protagonist, and finally the protagonist escapes from birth to find evidence to deal with the enemy, and then returns.

   I don’t know which of these two are from.

"this………"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's question, Lumière obviously hesitated, while Eclaire patted his chest.

   "Let me tell you, Lumière, what's embarrassing, it's not a bad thing!"

  So next, Eclair explained the situation to Duanmuhuai angrily.

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

Later, when the people came to protest and demonstrate in front of the ruling body, the nobleman wanted to suppress it by force. Seeing that the other party actually used weapons against these 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 could only flee.

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

"Oh I got it."

After listening to Eclaire's narration, Duan Muhuai also understood immediately. Simply put, this is equivalent to a certain civil war, and then the United Nations sent peacekeeping investigators to it, but the latter sided with the opposition and drove the ruler away .

   It's no wonder people don't sue you at the United Nations!

  Since it is a political issue, there is nothing to be done.

As I said before, the planetary union is like the United Nations, a joint organization formed by representatives of various forces, but the sovereignty of each planetary force is still in the hands of others, so Eclair’s actions are strictly speaking a violation of the sovereignty of other countries. It cannot be left alone.

  GOTT ordered them to be dismissed and investigated.

"Um………"

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

  Of course, the aristocrat also did not do human affairs.

  Although Eclaire said that he had a Liangshan temperament of "a hero who does things like a hero", but Duanmu Huai can imagine that Lu Mier must have made a move in it, otherwise it would be the two of them who would not be chasing at this moment.

   Besides, this combination of mindless and unhappy is also a standard configuration of many game and movie animations, isn't it?

  Actually, according to Duanmu Huai, Eclair's character is more suitable for mixing with Salamanders or Smurfs.

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

   Of course, this is not enough.

  It's like job hunting. Job hunting is actually a two-way selection process. Duan Muhuai also needs to evaluate them, and more importantly, to see if they are willing to join the trial court. This is very important. Oftentimes, what the trial court does is quite cruel. If they can't accept it, it's better to turn around and leave.

   Otherwise, it would be a disaster to keep it.

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

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

  The same is true in reality, defection is fine, if it is polluted by chaos and becomes the enemy of the friendly army, it will be a real trouble.

   Moreover, the game Xinghai OL does not deal with personnel, and the NPC favorability is completely hidden, and players cannot see it at all. And there are still many NPCs who are dissatisfied, but they are still smiling on the surface. Many players have suffered in this regard, but of course, the official can't bear to see players suffer. So they very thoughtfully launched a "Prophecy Crystal" in the mall. Players only need to buy the crystal and designate an NPC to use it, and they can see his favorability and current feelings towards the player.

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

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

   It's also expensive.

  Damn it's a profiteer's trick.

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

   Now let's see if the Inquisition is their choice for them.
