Counterattack [Interstellar] - Chapter 60
“There is one more thing to remind you.” A look of disgust flashed in Bark’s eyes, and he whispered, “You probably know it in your heart. I just want to say one more thing. Don’t relax your guard against Bettina.”
Bark was naturally not angry with this mistress who had intervened in his daughter-in-law. He interlaced his hands and said in a deep voice: “Marian has been in poor health since she was a child…so I will not attribute her premature death to Auston and Bettina. On that woman, but I can’t watch them kill my daughter’s only child, Ellen. Don’t despise her just because she’s badly injured now. As long as she is Alston’s mistress, she will Have the ability to hurt you again.”
Barker looked at Alan worriedly: “She has already noticed that you are a guide. Although she doesn’t know the end, it’s only a matter of time. There is no impermeable wall in the world. You must think about the secret one day in the future. Countermeasures in case of leakage.”
Bark irritably punched the armrest of the sofa: “It’s all to blame for Orston! It doesn’t matter if you awakened as a guide were made public! I will choose a good partner for you, and let you come to others in an open manner. , It’s not like being so scared all day long!”
Allen smiled after hearing this: “I have to defend him once. In fact, it was my intention not to disclose the matter at the time. I didn’t give up at that time. I would rather be under house arrest than be marked by an unknown person in adulthood. , And this also coincides with Aston’s mind… My identity is special. Although I am a guide, I will always be the second heir before Anthony’s succession, so he won’t be at ease with whom I will combine with him. He is worried. My companion will treat me as a puppet, thereby posing a threat to Anthony’s crown prince.”
“But he probably regretted it now.” Allen smiled leisurely, “Who would have thought that it was not my partner who threatened Anthony in the end, but myself.”
Bark froze for a moment with a chuckle and laughed: “Yes, if you are sent to the White Tower as soon as possible, so that you can be safely marked by a sentinel, it will probably have less impact on them.”
Allen smiled and continued: “As for the countermeasures you said to deal with the leakage of secrets in the future, to be honest, I actually have a plan, but the timing is not yet ripe. Look, I hope this day will happen when I am fully prepared. , If the day is not fulfilled, there is an unplanned situation…”
“Then I can’t help it.” Allen stretched his hands. “I can only push all the blame on Alston. You know, he was afraid of the dispersal of the royal family’s rights and refused to let me go to the White Tower and be marked by others. .”
Barker couldn’t help but laughed again, and Allen chuckled slightly: “So you don’t need to be so nervous. I don’t have to worry about it all day long, and you don’t have to.”
Barker nodded repeatedly, but still couldn’t help but ridiculed: “Don’t say this deliberately to ease my heart. I know you are still worried about something in your heart. You haven’t marked Pei Yao yet…what are you worrying about? “
Allen’s thoughts were broken by Barker’s words, and he smiled helplessly: “You know, sentries and guides who are combined without the permission of the empire will be separated and exiled for twenty years. I hope it can be used in this criminal law. Mark him after being abolished.”
Since the ratio of guides to sentries suddenly decreased, the empire drafted relevant laws. The sentries and guides who did not establish a connection through the formal process will be forced to separate. The sentry will be fined a lot and be assigned to the most desolate planet. Doing a job that even prisoners are unwilling to contact will result in a lighter punishment for the guide, but the fact that the sentry who has been far away from him for many years has not been able to meet is enough to cause them extreme pain.
The most ridiculous thing is that when this bill was drafted, the House declared that it was to protect guides. The rampant phenomenon of low-value black market trading guides made the sentinels who dared to mark guides in private. It is a guide and sentinel with a happy heart.
“It doesn’t have to be so straightforward. You are the prince, and you already enjoy the privileges, just like Auston.” Bark sneered. “I didn’t apply to Baita privately on the grounds that Marian was weak and could not give birth to a prince. A guide? You can also use all kinds of excuses to find some excuses for yourself. If you can’t, you can ask to be sent to exile together and exiled on the planet in my jurisdiction. I will protect you from food and clothing.”
Allen chuckled, “But the premise is that my identity as a guide has been made public.”
Bark patted his forehead and laughed, “I am really confused.”
“You are just too busy lately, and you have to bother for me.” Allen smiled soothingly, “Please rest assured, Pei Yao and I are in a far less difficult situation than you imagined. As you see, Catherine has been shot, Pei Yao He has also become the deputy dean of the White Tower. Everything is developing in a good direction. He and I are working hard every day. What we want is not just to be together, but a world where we can be together in an open and fair manner.”
Allen’s words made Barker very pleased: “As expected of my grandson, your mother will be proud of you if she is still alive.”
“His Royal Highness.” Allen’s courtesy officer pushed open the door of the small living room and bowed and said, “Major General Pei Yao is here.”
“Major General is back?” Allen was surprised. “Didn’t he want to wait until the exercise is over and let him come.”
Allen turned his head and smiled at Admiral Barker: “Pei Yao probably knows that you are here and feels rude not to come to see you.”
During the conversation, Pei Yao entered the room, and Allen smiled at Pei Yao: “I just talked about you, called Grandpa.”
Peiyao and Bark are not too strange, but this is the first time he meets Bark after he and Allen have confirmed their relationship. It was somewhat cramped. He habitually gave a military salute and squatted: ” Outside…Grandpa.”
Barker smiled heartily: “Allen is taken care of by you, sit down.”
Alan was afraid that Pei Yao would be embarrassed. First, he started talking about the fact that his quantum beast had injured Alston’s lion by climbing too much snake venom. After listening to Alan’s detailed explanation, Barker was shocked for a long time. Alan laughed. : “This ability is not very stable yet, and there may be some changes in the future.”
“No, no matter how you change it, its ability to poison other quantum beasts will not change.” Bark’s eyes were full of surprises, and he smiled, “Quickly, call that little guy out and let me see.”
Pei Yao stood up silently and walked to the door when he heard the words, guarding Alan with vigilance, Alan and Bark looked at each other, Allen smiled triumphantly, and Bark sighed with emotion.
After Ellen’s climbing snake slowly appeared in the wide-leaf bonsai in the corner of the living room, Barker wanted to learn more about Ellen’s climbing snake. He still remembered that this little snake was not intimacy with him, so he smiled extraordinarily. Kindly, he opened his hand to make himself look harmless, and smiled: “Come on, let me see you. You can’t usually come out to see people often? Are you not curious about me?”
Bark has never been so gentle with Allen, but unfortunately he doesn’t appreciate him too much. He is very cold towards Bark. Not only did he not approach Bark at all, he also hid suddenly when Bark got up and walked towards him. opened.
Bark had a very good temper, and continued softly: “Come here… let me see your fangs.”
Too climbing the snake looked at Bark warily, his eyes still cold.
“Are you shy? Would you like to see your grandfather?”
Bark smiled and released his black mamba. Who knows that this action is even more irritating to climb the snake. It instantly stood up, hissing at the black mamba, and constantly irritated. Slapped the ground with his tail.
Barker laughed: “What’s the matter? I have met several times, and it has become more and more resistant to me.”
Allen said helplessly: “Please don’t worry, it’s not just treating you like this… Its attitude towards the lion of Alston is even worse, maybe it’s nature, it can hardly be the same as the sentinel and their quantum The beast is in the same place.”
Bark looked at the Taipan snake who slowly swam to the feet of Pei Yao who was standing at the door trying to wrap Pei Yao’s body, feeling a little disappointed and said: “Oh.”
Allen was speechless and reluctantly explained: “Pei Yao is different…The first thing my snake saw was him when he was born. It has always been sticking to him. Really, it doesn’t have such attachment to me.”
Barker nodded regretfully: “Okay.”
Pei Yao looked awkwardly at Taipan Snake walking around his legs, and whispered: “Go to the admiral, it’s nothing… past.” Taipan Snake turned his head and glanced at Bark, Bark. Continuing to smile quickly: “Come on, good boy, come here.”
Tai Climbing the snake quietly spit out the snake letter, hissed twice in warning to Bark, turned his head and continued to use its head to arch Pei Yao’s hand…
Bark sighed and shook his head, and ridiculed himself: “It’s okay, it’s okay, snakes shouldn’t be close to others.”
Allen smiled hard and said: “Yes…it’s too late, please stay here tonight, I will let someone prepare a room for you.”
“No, there’s still a lot of things waiting for me.” Barker patted Alan on the shoulder, and took a nostalgic look at Taipan Snake. “Next time, I hope it will be less alert to me.”
Allen chuckles: “Okay.”
