The Minerva, Gnacou.
Led by Talia, the crew of the Minerva lined up and cast their gazes on the simple platform.
There was Chairman Dilandar as the leader and the other high-ranking officials of Zaft as support.
This was a welcoming ceremony for the crew of the Minerva to leave the ship after completing a series of quarantine and observation measures.
At the same time, it was also an award ceremony for the entire crew of the Minerva.
"Everyone, after the crisis of the x1 rift, I have heard from Captain Talia about your efforts and contributions for the safety of the Minerva and your own lives. In view of your efforts, I, Zaft, would like to give you the rewards and honor you deserve. "
Standing behind the podium, Dilandar recounted the achievements of every crew member of the Minerva. He was so detailed that the crew members themselves had forgotten about it.
As Dilandar spoke, every crew member felt extremely honored. They followed the instructions and stepped onto the platform to receive the award from Dilandar and Zaft.
By the end of the welcoming and awarding ceremony, the Minerva had become a legend in Zaft.
Every member of the Minerva had at least one medal on their left chest. In other words, from this moment on, the Minerva had truly become the only meritorious warship in the Zaft Empire.
It was a meritorious warship in the truest sense of the word.
"So much for the insignificant reward. Next, I will give you the documents you will need to live in Plant from now on. "
While everyone was rejoicing over their medals, Dilandar struck while the iron was hot and gave out another wonderful gift.
"Everyone, according to the results of the genetic testing, everyone on the Minerva has received a genetic compatibility test of Rank B and above. Therefore, you will be given resources according to Project Fate's standard of living for Rank B and above. Oh, right! The medals you have received are not only a symbol of honor, but also proof of living resources. "
Hearing Dilandar's words, everyone looked at the medals they had just received in shock.
They could never have imagined that the medals that symbolized honor could be of use in daily life.
"As for the use of the medals in daily life, you can explore it on your own. Let's call it a day! "
Dilandar turned around and looked at Talia, who had pinned a white wing emblem that symbolized FAITH on her collar. He nodded slightly.
The latter understood and took a step forward.
"Everyone! After disbanding, they would take turns to rest according to the schedule! Dismissed! "
"Yes! Captain! "
Amidst the joyous cheers, the crew members who had been away from home for a long time dispersed. They joked about their medals and prepared to get off the ship.
"Captain. In the future, he might be even busier! Take advantage of this period of time to have a good rest! At the same time, go visit Rolle. He's currently in the training institute set up by the council to nurture future councilors. "
Dilandar called out to Talia. Then, he smiled and told her about Rol, Talia's child.
"Future Senator? Luo 'er? "
Sure enough, Dilandal saw the expression he wanted to see.
Talia was indeed surprised that her son, Rolle, was able to catch the attention of the Supreme Council.
"How could that be? That child! "
"Talia. You don't have to look down on your child. Rolle's genetic test report has been approved by Project Fate. He is a child with outstanding leadership skills. This is not only recognized by me, but also by the Supreme Council. "
Talia carefully looked at Dilandar's expression when he spoke. Her gaze was sharp, but she did not say anything. She only nodded silently.
"Then I'll go after I've made some preparations."
Dilandar showed a satisfied smile.
"Good! It just so happens that I'm also returning to the Supreme Council. Let's go together, how about it? "
"Then, I'll have to trouble you, President!"
After Talia saluted Dilandar, she turned and left Gnacou.
As she said, she needed some time to prepare for her visit to her child.
And during this time, Dilandar was willing to wait.
As for the other side, before the start of the award ceremony, Nigor and Lacus had already left the Minerva on the grounds that they needed to return to the Supreme Council to report on their work.
When the convoy sent by the Amafi family drove on the ring road, Nigor gestured to the front. The rear compartment where he and Lacus were in was raised with soundproof glass, forming an enclosed space.
"It's done! There shouldn't be any major problems now. Lacus. "
Nigor's feelings about this diplomatic trip, other than being surprised, were great excitement.
He never thought that he would meet Ray Mingkai and meet Lacus in the Britannia Empire. He also never thought that the "Lacus" who went to the Britannia Empire with him would be Lacus's sister, a sister who had never appeared in public.
Now, under the exchange of identities between Lacus and "Lacus," the real Lacus had returned to PLANT, and the president did not notice the difference between the two Lacus.
"I didn't expect PLANT to have such a big change."
Lacus retracted her gaze from the translucent window and looked at the badge in her hand. It represented the highest standard of genetic adapters recognized by Project Fate.
Lacus could use this badge to go to most PLANT and even Zaft's facilities. She could also use a part of PLANT and Zaft's resources.
With such great authority, even Lacus, who relied on Klein's name to support the project, was surprised.
"This is the change brought about by Project Fate. At present, this project has indeed changed PLANT, and at the same time, it has made Zaft stronger. All the talented people recognized by Project Fate have received suitable arrangements to contribute to this society. "
"Is that so?"
Lacus clasped her hands slightly and pinched the badge in her palm, feeling the sharp pain caused by the edges of the badge.
"But, I'm afraid that PLANT, no, has begun to split, right?"
Nigor could not deny it.
Lux's words were correct.
In the early stages of the implementation of the Fate Plan, the main members of the major families that made up the Supreme Council were not greatly affected. They were all recognized by the Fate Plan and stayed in their original positions. Even the councilors who were close to Dilandar benefited from it.
The councilors who were defeated by Project Fate were all stripped of their positions on the spot. They had no choice but to accept the arrangements made by Project Fate and become part of the defeated army. They were given positions to contribute to PLANT and sweat profusely.
However,
These people would not be willing to leave the comfort of the office and stay at the construction site and sweating in the factory.
From a small number of people standing at the top of PLANT, they would certainly not be willing to admit defeat.
In fact, as Lacus said, PLANT was on the verge of splitting.
However, the huge external pressure was enough to suppress all discordant voices to the point where they could not be heard.
Otherwise, the Holy Lion Knight would not be famous for this and become the hero of PLANT.
"Some of them supported Dilandar before this?"
Lacus did not ask about the early stages of Project Fate, but she keenly speculated about the situation at that time.
"As expected of Klein."
Nigor sighed in his heart.
"Well, a few councilors firmly supported Speaker Tillandar. In the early stages of Project Fate, they even stood up and said that they would accept any arrangement regardless of the test results of Project Fate. "
"Is that so? It seems that I missed a good show! "
A glimmer of light flashed in Lacus' eyes, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Do you want to take a look at them?"
Nigor carefully asked Lacus for her thoughts.
The real Lacus had returned.
Then, the long-dormant Klein faction had also come to the time to awaken.
"No. Now is not the time. "
Lacus shook her head.
"I need to see more clearly. To see more clearly this Project Fate! "
This was different from Lacus, the Project Fate in the memory of Lacus Klein, who had memories from a different time and space.
In front of her, this PLANT that had successfully promoted Project Fate, Lacus needed to see the truth behind the seemingly beautiful and bright future with her own eyes.
Nigor did not object to Lacus' decision.
"Oh, yes! Lacus, Aslan returned to PLANT not long ago. "
"Aslan?"
Lacus was stunned, and for a moment, she felt a sense of strangeness.
Whether it was when she woke up in the SEED world or now, Lacus did not have a trace of closeness to this man who was destined to part ways with her.
Moreover, from the moment Ray Mingkai sacrificed his life to protect her, Lacus understood that the only Knight by her side was Ray Mingkai.
Now that she heard the news about Aslan, Lacus felt strange, but it was not very surprising.
This was because Lux Klein was never the fifteen-year-old songstress from the very beginning. Instead, she was Lux Klein who had revived in the world of SEED with the memories of the past decades.
Seeing the fleeting strangeness on Lacus' face, Nigor could not help but sigh secretly.
The couple who were originally regarded as a match made in heaven by PLANT had actually gone down two different paths.
"Nigor. Is there something wrong with Aslan? "
After sorting out her thoughts, Lacus asked.
"Yes. Aslan now. "
At the mention of the current situation of his best friend, a trace of pain flashed across Nigor's face.
"Aslan now has become a vegetable!!!"
