南極皇都到希臘官邸的航班，金度‧金恩‧艾因里希非常享受。帝國高層會議結束，他帶回不少名望，還有自我啟發。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1kegWLyym

「父親大人，辛苦了。」布麗姬特按照禮數，再次出宮到停機坪迎接。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAweqCvv5Om
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuKE0cBzD3
「妳怎麼一個人過來？麥西米利恩呢？」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOttAYcfga

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGykLpHCdHL
金度牽起女兒的手走進廳堂，行為舉止格外親切，但他額頭上的傷疤，讓布麗姬特感到擔憂。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sVkglNWsF
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwxdamTli3
「您身體還好嗎？要不要休息一下？」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAmDoG2KEx
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXsabAryBe

老將軍神采煥發，迫不及待地說出好消息，「跟妳說，爸爸要升遷了！我能分到火星，妳會變成老家的公主……更重要的是，我會有更多時間陪妳。」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwj0E3cW3LA
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRR8W3JVDkp
「真的嗎……太好了，終於……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRxzn1LbrN
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DJx68A1UC
布麗姬特擁抱父親、喜極而泣。上次離別之前，那副憂心忡忡的蒼老面容，她終於能夠忘懷。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYlRpUzDQh
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqlp7JzxlE
「原諒我……埋首工作，都沒注意到妳已經……長這麼大了……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSmKUnua5X
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDybuQPNIv
摟住女兒的腰，金度輕聲細語道：「上次我有沒有交給妳……什麼東西？代為保管？撞到頭，害我有點失憶呢……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym8Wu6PnaW
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07Sp0YeuNc
「嗯？有啊，那個小儲存碟……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzTTLsyVAk
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmWSEf1MiK
不要相信任何人。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7mtaIxR9L
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w62DXQidF
沉重告誡閃過布麗姬特腦海。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQTzZKnKkc
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt2m1hNBPN
身上游移的手掌讓她十分不自在。父親的瞳孔深處，竟然有一股陌生氣息。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxi8MOkMQne
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOg26ffytm
「小儲存碟？在哪裡？」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSssHyzkEh

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhvFi4WWWR
「噢，抱歉，親愛的……可以把它還給我嗎？裡面有很重要的東西。」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRocBZU9A4D
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO3dVEVyOY
「是……父親，我這就回寢室找找……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNj0C4cC4ic
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAlLhLbdfK
雙手緊握裙襬，快步跑過長廊、走上階梯。千金公主喘著大氣、鎖緊房門。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBVyRzpMuX
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw2Xs52uRp
鳥兒鳴叫，日光依舊。她慢慢低下頭，從鑰匙孔向外看去。剛才那些，應該只是錯覺而已。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfJWzSchDk
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0eVd7bzjo
一片黑，什麼都看不見。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOt0lenHhP8
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdnB9zIsN6
她這才發現，被稱為父親的男人緊貼在門外，準備彎腰窺視進來。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeWtwouaZT
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX08EukEHq1
「嗚……」布麗姬特擋住嘴巴，往牆邊跌去。幸好絨毛地毯吸收聲音，讓她能偷偷從死角爬到陽台。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHJQSt5p5m
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSK9BwQujK
「不、不要……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpEZAiH0q0
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJF9JZkT90J
聽到門把粗暴亂轉，貴族之女掏出藏在胸口的儲存裝置，強忍淚水接受現狀，「爸爸出事了……這裡不能待，要想辦法逃出去。」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmpMYlVpW6
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpXD9L5YnH
海風刺痛手指，布麗姬特緊緊抓住外牆浮雕，一邊聽著漸漸增多的腳步聲，一邊攀下地面。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBuSjqo58D
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXloRjiNQl
脫掉高跟鞋、壓抑恐懼，她小心翼翼避開巡邏衛兵，成功進入樹林。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9tQDqHIhR
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrMFyDU8Nb
「快逃、快逃……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdqRUR62Tu
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hcVsAFIQv
但是，又能逃去哪？沒了家室，她要怎麼活下去？542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBHVPKOQiF
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV1VmwD7HB
閃過眼角的樹幹就像不懷好意的人群，不斷打擊她的意志，直到她體力透支、跌倒在地。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdI8S9iLVc
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2O4sbfpfa
強忍淚水狼狽起身，落葉被踩碎的聲音從布麗姬特前方傳來。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX3rjSrQEr
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZyHorzYMR
「誰……騎士大人？」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZJGRIjzWe
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprLZzBfbD3
身穿長袍軍裝，臉上有改造紋路的武將伸出援手，扶著主公的女兒躲進草叢。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0t2evY4uy
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WakXsKBaL
「麥西，父親表現很奇怪，我們要找人幫忙！」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzZFQ0cGsN

「麥西米利恩，難道你也……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS0PYGuNw9
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcCFlLryee
落難公主心底一涼，還沒反應過來就被重擊後頸、失去意識。漸漸模糊的視線中，是充滿悔意的男人神情。
思念與夢境，帶著女子回到故鄉。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShJTB9q6PN
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2TdqkM5Uq
火星表面經過千年改造，已經像極了地球，不同的是，那裡海水顏色偏紅。布麗姬特很久沒看到老家，但總是會夢到同一個場景。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4a6w7EpXc
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq00TlQITMe
安寧病房窗外是紅色汪洋，母親嚥下最後一口氣。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2GZ3ZqU3c
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0VFi0kjns
金度的妻子比夫君更「不像貴族」。她堅持靠自己的力量與病魔搏鬥，不接受複製人器官移植。雖然成功生下一女，但還是難逃命運魔爪。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FYieLU52M
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiZnr8bvFE

「爸爸！」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENuS6SejyZ
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NgmJyxZrX
布麗姬特睜開眼睛，發現自己被安全帶繫在船艦駕駛座，旁邊正是打暈她的騎士。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHpH68ZCMF
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FQhtW6j7z
「麥西米利恩‧羅威‧邁爾，你竟敢……」落難公主拔出臂環內藏小刀，抵住背叛者的脖子。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6XA4YraVr
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRzDNgqrlH
沒有回應，也沒有辯解。布麗姬特仔細一看，發現騎士冒著冷汗，一手操縱面板，另一手緊壓腹部，長袍被血跡染紅。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3ZAXwkIwL
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19cOOYCKAy
「大小姐，我願接受任何懲罰，但必須等我們成功脫逃……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHoToBUyjV
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrEY2RtQQ9
「你……為什麼……」布麗姬特收起小刀幫忙止血，試著整理混亂思緒，「到底怎麼回事？我們在哪？」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQX6bLIplz
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vpYl9Wbvy
「金度將軍下令將您活捉，甚至要進行拷問，那完全不像他，在下……違反軍紀，把您帶到這艘運輸船，不小心中槍。」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKctnkE9g4k
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdWbwXn8vL
「父親果然……可是，要逃到哪呢……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBlDoTi88A
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKqB0J9dUP
麥西米利恩推動油門，艙內顛簸加劇，「我的計畫是……突破大氣層，換乘機體甩開追兵，尋求庇護……」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUlTM2B1Df
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSEYQwxxfL
閃光與震動逐漸停止，太空梭飛出地球，迎接它的，是數萬顆攻擊衛星組成的防禦陣列。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnHnPvH2Yw
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaLr4hw6pj
濃密雷射交織亂舞，瞬間把船身大卸八塊。煙塵與碎片之中，一架機械半人馬浴火出擊。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsb3ra6KLo
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7cmGuc1Vj
四足推進器猛踏真空；雙手握槍殺出重圍。侍衛武將專用機「山杜爾‧弓騎」且戰且走，披肩裝飾燒毀也無妨，因為繡在上頭的帝國旗幟，它已經不再效忠。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHlUHrpEVX
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhsMGCo1py
「大小姐，請您忍耐！」542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXZnPCoLKt
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ILcZIUdUl
人馬機兵只有單一座位，騎士雙手緊抱公主減緩衝擊，同時透過神經連結裝置進行戰鬥。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPxLtA4qg9
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfHjPLpPgz
山杜爾左右閃避，展開槍柄上的柺刃，同時對應不同距離的威脅。但，攻擊衛星怎麼殺都殺不完，載著追兵的船隻也進入宇宙空間。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxAXQJx2Bd

布麗姬特看到螢幕上的警報，得知她們走頭無路。就要放棄希望時，突然感到環抱身體的手臂更加緊縮。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q3nbp8Pvx
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QCsdZMBYp
無數流星群當前，半人馬沒有退縮，而是把雙槍互相結合，全速衝進死亡風暴。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1OEquw34B

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6S0sATjRL
強烈光束在風暴中轟出一個大洞，正好讓山杜爾進入。大量碎塊因此改變軌道，開始往地球落下，攻擊衛星只好轉頭執行原本工作，擊落威脅皇都的隕石。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6j0MHwslX
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo5A6g8wPF
帝國追兵也被迫停止前進，因為衝進月球殘骸根本是自殺行為。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDFqvuVacj

人馬機兵在天昏地暗的亂塵中閃躲、跳躍。G力不斷拉扯布麗姬特全身，她終究還是支撐不住、再次暈厥。最後映入眼簾的，是騎士的全心全靈，還有通訊螢幕上的求助對象⸺和平重工。
公主與騎士成為不確定因素。同時間，木星圈也出了一位逃家貴族。他帶走的不是小小磁碟，而是大半數宇宙艦隊。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO608PtGgSI

542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Mq5s3B537
親后派份子被關進運輸艇，運回木衛四。元帥只留下少數守軍，因為有纏結通訊裝置，離開家園也能隨時掌握狀況。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xUh3jtBNb
542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9s4ynJfI2R
萬事俱備，本應充滿信心的他，卻被母親的最後一席話搞得五味雜陳。542Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC0lmJBCml

集結的新月、蠢動的帝國與重工。各方勢力角逐天下，外環抗軍仍蟄伏在太陽系邊境。他們能否成為燎原星火？一切都得在土星戰役見真章。
