木衛四「卡利斯托」表面，新月軍的旗幟在真空中飄揚。帝國統一太陽系前，人類就已經在此建立殖民地，建築設備作為政要核心稍嫌老舊。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxe3tUs2sY2

年輕元帥薩邁爾裸著身體，走進寢宮浴室。跟火星官邸比起來，這裡少了碧麗堂皇的裝飾，真空排水孔也吸力不足，在皮膚上殘留許多濕氣。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONGguOOCwS
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ1HnY8pAi
「希望母親會習慣……」薩邁爾走出淋浴間，順手拿起管家遞上的毛巾。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs1pq6ceJP
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm63GGWo6Cp
所謂管家，是兩顆機械盒子。一個幫主人拿舊衣服去殺菌；一個幫他注射抗無重力藥物。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRVUCSOtDj

「呼……」正值事業頂峰的領袖用髮夾固定劉海，一個彈指啟動辦公桌投影裝置，「最急迫的事件？」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9It5pCjlS8
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk74IarEw2w
「火星首都『阿爾西亞』暴動尚未解除，抗議民眾要求立刻停戰⸺調查結果顯示，背後有貴族帳戶贊助。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzGK64yDvH

397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlH0ENNOu7i
薩邁爾手捏眉心，戰火只會燒出無限問題，「BB，先處理民生事件。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLpAR1k2P9

民間事務也是各種難題，但薩邁爾處理起來快樂多了。不知不覺，投影窗已經顯示夜晚景色。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwhBf4W2Ny

「今天就到此為止。」把電子文書和那些停戰就能解決的事放回桌上，薩邁爾看了一眼家族相片。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfcTFGgZCl
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh5LAgSShR
年幼的他首次與父親爾哈特合影，表情好不快樂。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoXvhOVM2x

「『背叛』屬於進階情感定義，超過運算限制，無法執行。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHyo9HkTmO
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsWd5LeY19
「那就好……」薩邁爾永遠無法忘記。電子腦德爾芬無情虐殺父親的軍隊，在那種恐懼壟罩下，大義責任都不再重要，只剩下醜惡的人性。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQQM6TWRla
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UsMElKpdf
儘管如此，現在他還是得依賴人工智慧處理公務。新月元帥嘆了口氣，在通往親族宅邸的長廊上沉思。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYS5rbWz72

紫金地毯的會客廳中，軍裝筆挺的青年站穩腳步，在他身後，一位全黑裝束的女子默默看著牆上的肖像畫⸺已故大元帥：爾哈特。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoo2o8VaSk

艾莉雅女士伸手壓著帽子，原本要遮住寡婦面容的黑色流蘇，因為低重力四處亂飄，讓她更加不悅。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaj83OTQt6

397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Int8sLu0y
「這裡相對安全，媽媽，」薩邁爾輕輕取下圓帽。K62事故之後，母親的眼神就失去光彩，但元帥沒有忘記她過去的溫柔，「土星也快入手了。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedi9H1WozT
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOcUCnK0vG
「一直往外跑，什麼時候要進攻地球？」曾經溫柔的女子，口吻卻充滿怨恨，「不要忘記你父親的遺志……糾舉天地衛，把披著祖父外皮的傢伙處以極刑。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSBTzX6K8p
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mLOjYHuZn

「如果你要安定，薩邁爾，我就讓你弟桑德斯去戰場立功。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZmvEnMpYw
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsug2OBU9xK
軍裝青年挺起胸膛，年輕眼神滿是憧憬。父親死去時，他還在肚子裡，從未體驗戰場的殘酷。薩邁爾找了個理由，想要保護懵懂的弟弟。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqjRDuCe1j
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDiYYc4t44
「要不是普勞德‧源隆擅自帶兵去K62，現在就有足夠軍力展開攻擊了……桑德斯先學會處理國政，未來也有機會立功。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KksOgf2gR
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fSo9LVbYF
「既然如此，你怎麼沒有把源隆家族抄了，還讓他們治理火星？」艾莉雅的視線毫無感情。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SFG8OL8Ox

他當時還打算犧牲我們，吸引人民支持。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliVh73PLKa
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7iOlFCkXD
「他……的管理制度，大多沿用舊帝國，」薩邁爾忍住嘴巴，重新編織話語，「需要時間修正，才能獲得貴族以外的人民支持。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cLBMBC00F
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TmtpDm5eG
「恐怕沒時間給你修正了……老君鈦仙在外面，他有一個重要情資，能讓我們得到力量⸺我們不僅要收復帝國，還要防範K62威脅……去跟他談談。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehBwQdSdk0

薩邁爾帶著沉重寄託飄出會客廳，用大門關閉的聲響提振精神，面對走廊末端的矮小老人。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUfhRjUUu9
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSFUaoultE
白鬍白眉、頭戴高帽，神秘的天月宰相穩穩地站著，彷彿腳底有個吸盤。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3bof3JHDk

397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2bNBTG8Oa
「呵呵，真心急……你可知道，金星有個電子腦，名叫『原初智』⸺帝國對外號稱它已經被摧毀，想必別有用心。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRuHhJDK0u
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVubaeZ2a2
「我憑什麼相信你？當初同為天月衛，你卻站在父親敵人那一邊。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PGGG9Psjz
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOk3RbpWusy
「別這樣非黑即白呀……我情報給了，你可以去，也可以不去？」老人順順鬍鬚，瞇起一隻眼睛，「就當作，老君看上你的能力。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiitdh9jE4G

鈦仙飄向宮外接駁船，尖酸話語不斷在元帥腦中打轉。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZVUjYVEE5
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNiVPc2rPZ
「你要親手借用電子腦之力，還是要把重責大任丟給血親呢？」 397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrN5W8NQWTD

397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGb4Qf6gqSW
月神艦阿那吠耀格納庫中，薩邁爾重重捶了欄桿一拳。他痛恨自己想不出萬全方案，只能冒險前往金星一探究竟。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClmoiwqnBj

黃綠相間的嶄新機兵，設計不同於其他世代。頭部單眼閃著紫光，雙肩推進翼能讓機身靈活運動，最特別的是懸浮在四周的圓筒形子機。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrUKaH1ZC2
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgRPlDA0EJ
「這樣好嗎？把新銳機體給我這個複製人……」茵坦飄出駕駛艙，害羞地牽著領袖的手落到地板。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBDSd5OXpw
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6tJ622sRJ

397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXUyZwOclP
薩邁爾有點訝異，跟沒有血緣的對象談話，讓他無拘無束。397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUQpggcCPa
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOikuumBzYs
「妳就是三位體戰團（TriBander）系列的後衛⸺等前鋒、中鋒機體正式完成，我們就能並肩作戰，證明不管出身為何，都能受到重用。」397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y37OHHKAG
397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7h6kkqNzF

397Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw3nExp6Bs
