Adele slept in the back seat of a car with the sniper rifle in her arms. Of course, this "bed" was not comfortable, so she could hardly sleep all night. When the garage door was knocked, Adele was the first to react. Her petite body bounced up in the narrow compartment with incredible agility. What followed was the amazing flexibility of her body. One of her legs was stretched flat against the door, and her upper body was straight. Li Xiao was propped up on the front seat, facing the door. This was a position where she could shoot at any time.
Edward walked towards the door. The knocking sound was rhythmic. Obviously, it was not the old man Gao Shanying outside. If it was the old man with the eagle code name, he would have knocked out a unique code. Edward gestured. Regis and Lola lay in ambush on the left and right sides of the door, while Belmond faced the main door. Mist and fire continuously emerged from beneath his feet and spread out in the garage space. Even the light was affected by the mist and fire and became dim.
A gentle man's voice sounded from outside the door, "Miss Adele, and Young Master Regis. Are you inside? Open the door, please. I'm Mirren, Marshal Greed's adjutant. "
Adele was stunned. She pushed open the door and walked out to look at Regis. The latter nodded, and Adele took a deep breath and said, "Open the door. If he has ill intentions, a door can't stop a Federation general."
Edward opened the door, and there was indeed a man standing outside. He was dressed in civilian clothes, and a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose blurred the outline of his eyebrows and eyes, but through the lenses, one could see the gentle eyes behind them. He nodded and got into the garage. "Fortunately, I came in time …"
"You're here to help, aren't you?" Asked Adele.
Mirren spread out her hands and said, "This is the mission that Marshal Windsor Bellow gave me. Everyone, I'm here for Young Master Allen just like you. The situation is very bad. Before I returned to Earth, I asked the Red Wolf to gather relevant information. It just so happened that we intercepted the information that you were looking for the help of the High Mountain Eagle and were planning to sneak back to Babylon, so I was able to find you here in time. Listen to me, Babylon is now loose on the outside and tight on the inside. The Federation Intelligence Service's spies are closely watching their respective landing ports, official and illegal. Everything is under their surveillance. "
"I can guarantee that when you arrive in Babylon, you will be greeted by the soldiers of the Iron Fist Legion."
Adele frowned and said, "Even you can't do anything?"
"It's not that there's no way, but you don't have to sneak back to Babylon, because Allen isn't on the island right now." Mirren raised her glasses and said, "His Excellency the President has done an excellent job of keeping Allen confidential. There is no way to spy on him from the outside world." However, they neglected one point. Our Red Wolf is quite good at network intrusion technology. Of course, this is due to the Marshal's bad taste, which is why the Red Wolf is gradually inclined to develop this technology. But no matter what, it was a great help this time … "
"The Red Wolf found a video in the Federation's internal database at a secret port in the Federation. In that video, we saw what happened to Allen when he arrived in Babylon. We have confirmed that after Allen returned to Babylon, he was taken over by General Fendi of the Iron Fist Legion and taken to the Federation prison on Earth … Iron Prison! "
"Federation prison?" Edward narrowed his eyes and said, "Allen is not a prisoner!"
"Yes, I think so too. Judging from all the signs, President Mobius himself is violating the laws of the Federation, intending to dig out some secrets from Allen. Otherwise, there would be no need to deliberately hide it from the outside world and bring Allen to the Iron Prison. "
Adele took a step forward and said, "General Mirren, can you give me the video you found?"
"What does Miss Adele mean?"
'"If we make this video public, we can unite all the nobles to put pressure on Mobius. He must let Allen go. Even if Allen committed any crime, he must get a public trial, not be secretly sent to the Iron Prison as he is now! "Adele's eyes were clearly surging with anger.
Mirren sighed, "That's why I can't give you the information, Miss Adele."
"Why!"
'"I can understand your feelings, and I know that once this information is made public, President Mobius will have no choice but to release Allen. But have you ever thought that the relationship between the Federation and the nobles is already tense? If this video is made public at this time, I'm afraid it will cause the Earth Federation to split apart. This is much worse than the Gate of Freedom. And I believe this is just Mobius's personal behavior. Miss, do you want to tear the entire Federation apart because of Mobius alone? There are many people who don't know about this matter. They shouldn't bear the consequences for Mobius alone. What do you think? "
"It's the big picture again." Adele said angrily, "I've had enough of your men's so-called big picture! Allen didn't do anything wrong. Why did he have to bear all of this? There was a way to save him quickly, but it couldn't be used because of some bullshit big picture! "
Mirren had a helpless expression.
Edward pulled Adele over and said, "Calm down, miss. General Mirren is right. Compared to Adahua Planet and other advanced civilizations, Earth is just getting started. It's still young and needs time to grow. It's not good for anyone to split up the Federation now. And I believe that since General Mirren has taken the initiative to come to us, he should already have a plan to rescue Allen without affecting the division of the Federation. Is that so, General Mirren? "
Mirren nodded, "There is a rescue plan, but I don't have enough people on my side, so I need your help."
Adele pushed Edward away and said to Mirren in a low voice, "Then let's go. Every minute we delay, Allen's danger will increase by one point!"
"Follow me." Mirren got out of the garage and said, "I've already informed Gao Shanying that he will stop your sneak back to Babylon. And in the next plan, you don't have any identities. Even if you die in battle, you will only be a mercenary on the surface. The Sirius Legion will not take any responsibility for it. Do you understand? "
Edward looked at everyone and said on behalf of everyone, "We understand."
The sun gradually rose.
At nine o'clock, more than 80% of the floating island space in Babylon was able to enjoy the brilliant sunshine. Horn sat in his private flying car. The sun shone through the window and pulled out a black shadow on the seat beside him. Half an hour later, he arrived at the family's Magic Martial Development Base. All of this was faithfully recorded by the ubiquitous road surveillance systems of the Federation. Some eyes were paying close attention to Horn's whereabouts through this system.
A moment later, a truck left the base. In the Federation's records, this truck would deliver a day's worth of research supplies to the base on time every morning. Its driving time and route were the same almost every day. Today was no exception. The truck followed the usual route, and the road surveillance system tracked its whereabouts. Nothing unusual happened. After the truck entered a tunnel, the surveillance screen that tracked the truck flickered, and there was even no screen at all for about two seconds. Due to the special environment of the tunnel, the signal transmission of the monitoring system would always be poorly received. The people in charge of observing these scenes were already used to it. However, they didn't know that today was a little special. In the two seconds that the monitoring system lost its screen, the truck carriage in the tunnel opened. A flying car emerged from within and left in the opposite direction.
Horn was in the flying car, along with Alstair. Looking at the signal jammer in the fat minister's hand, Horn smiled and said, "Since when did you and I have to go through so much trouble to meet?"
"Things are different now, old friend." Alstair moved his body and changed into a more comfortable sitting position.
"It's a waste that you're not a spy." Horn joked. From the moment he arrived at the base, he changed into a van, and finally left in a flying car in the tunnel, it was all arranged by the fat minister in front of him. Horn was curious as to why he was so careful.
Alstair rolled his eyes and said, "Spare me. If it weren't for the importance of the matter, I wouldn't have gone through so much trouble. Now let's get down to business, old friend. I really hope I don't have to tell you this news myself. "
Horn understood the unusual meaning in the minister's tone. He sat up straight and asked in a deep voice, "What exactly happened?"
"Allen is back."
No matter how imaginative Horn was, he had never expected Alstair to say such a seemingly ordinary piece of news. However, if this news was related to the minister's cautious actions, it would be too unusual. Horn had a bad premonition, but he still asked calmly, "Did something happen to him?"
"Yes." Alstair smiled bitterly and nodded, "He was secretly recalled by President Mobius and brought to the Iron Prison on the surface by General Fendi. There is no news at all."
"Secret recall? Iron Prison? "Horn said in a deep voice," When did the Federation start monitoring our Bescot communication network? "
This was obvious. If it weren't for the fact that the communication network was monitored, Horn believed that Allen would have sent back the relevant information in advance, instead of waiting until now for Alstair to tell him. The fat minister sighed, "It's not news that the Federation has been monitoring the clans. It's just that His Excellency the President has interfered too much this time that you're like a blind man with your eyes open. You don't know Allen's situation at all."
"Very well, then why did he arrest Allen?"
"I don't know either. I only know that Mr. President seems to want to unearth some secret from Allen." Alstair grabbed Horn's hand and said, "If you trust me, don't ask me where I got the news. In short, Mobius had authorized Fendi that, apart from not harming Allen's life, the Iron Prison experimenters could conduct all the experiments they deemed necessary on Allen. I was furious when I heard the news. Mr. President is trying the law. But you know that this matter is complicated and has a far-reaching impact. So I hope you will think it through before you take any action. "
