Walk alone in the abyss

When Yang Ming saw Hanyin again, she was sunk in the water tank suspended with ice cubes, her face was already purple from the cold.

This is not some bitter trick.

This is the tentacle organization's punishment for Hanyin's brief loss of the pendant.

Yang Ming frowned and looked at the middle-aged maid beside him: "Let her out, she is mine now."

"As you order, my lord count."

The middle-aged maid said with a smile, and several maids at the side opened the drain gate and helped Hanyin who was trembling all over to come out.

The middle-aged maid said: "Hanyin's survival is all thanks to your care, otherwise, according to our rules, she will have to commit suicide and apologize."

"Is your organization so inhumane?"

"Without strict discipline, greater disasters will be brewed."

The middle-aged maid glanced at Yang Ming, and pointedly said:

"The two maids that His Majesty rewarded you have never had any real contact with men. I hope the Earl will treat them well."

"Well," Yang Ming nodded, "Where is the other Hanxiang?"

"She's on her way here. She hasn't left training camp before."

Hanyin has already learned about her future destiny. She was trembling all over at this moment, looked up at Yang Ming's handsome face with sharp edges and corners, and smiled wryly.

"My lord, please take care of me."

Yang Ming unbuttoned his military uniform jacket and handed it to Hanyin. He was wearing only solid-colored short-sleeves, revealing the outline of his upper body muscles.

"Let's go, let that Hanxiang directly locate Hanyin's position later."

The middle-aged maid softly agreed, and turned to invite.

Yang Ming didn't feel anything.

The emperor rewarded him with two beautiful cameras, which is not a big deal.

Hanyin, the former deputy leader of the "tentacles" organization, kept looking back, and walked forward as if turning his head three times.

Yang Ming smiled and said: "Don't look, you still have a chance to come back. The emperor asked you to come to my side so that you can watch over me. As long as you complete the task, you must have made a contribution."

"I hope, Axie!"

Hanyin sneezed several times in a row.

Yang Ming stepped forward, perfectly dodged the spray from her spray, and glanced at her with disgust.

Hanyin explained helplessly: "My lord, this is a physical reaction. Every human being may sneeze when caught cold."

"When you sneeze, at least block it with your elbow."

"Yes, obey, civilized and well-educated Lord Earl."

There was a palace car waiting not far away, Yang Ming calmly sat in the back seat, then turned his head and asked, "Do you have any luggage to pack?"

"No," Hanyin said, "Hanxiang will bring it to me."

"Let's go, you go find a hotel to stay in first."

Yang Ming gently reminded:

"I still have some property, so it's okay to raise two idlers.

"But let me tell you first, don't have any fantasies about my young body, I love my girlfriend very much."

The palace guard who was in charge of driving almost laughed out loud.

Hanyin turned her head to stare at Yang Ming complicatedly, and was about to open the rear door.

Yang Ming pointed to the co-pilot: "Assistants and staff usually sit in that seat."

Hanyin pursed her lips and sat down where Yang Ming was pointing to. She slammed down the car door that could have been automatically closed.

'This guy definitely did it on purpose! '

Hanyin kept complaining from the bottom of her heart.

Playing hard to get, this is probably playing hard to get!

What these nobles who enjoy abundant resources like to do most is not to conquer other people's bodies, but to conquer other people's souls!

Ghosts will be fooled by this guy!

Hanyin was restlessly leaning against the co-pilot's window. When the hover car drove away from the palace gate, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and she wiped them away with her hand.

Yang Ming inadvertently took a second look at Hanyin's fair and slender neck, also leaning on the chair and thinking.

The old emperor's city mansion is not as deep as usual.

Moreover, the old emperor's cheeks are too fucking thick!

Although the title of honorary Earl of the Sherman Empire and the hundred-year-term territory are indeed very fragrant, the ancient god cells that Yang Ming wants most now have not been found at all!

The old emperor's transfer of him from Emperor Star was also a strategy of killing many birds with one stone.

This move not only prevented Yang Ming from taking advantage of the current spring breeze to increase his influence in Emperor Star;

It also allows Yang Ming to use his identity as the emperor's special envoy to divert the attention of the people of the empire;

It also cleverly announced that the white ghost was the emperor's thug, using the influence of the white ghost to concretize the emperor's prestige.

As for the rectification of the nobles, going to the noble manors to make money to fill the vacancy in military expenditure, and breaking up the factions left by the elders, etc., those are more superficial functions.

"well."

Yang Ming let out a long sigh:

"It's all right now, there is really no freedom."

Hanyin said in a low voice: "My lord, is there anything you are not satisfied with now? The blame is borne by servants like us. Standing in His Majesty's palm, you have received the honor and privilege bestowed by His Majesty."

Yang Ming said with a smile: "Don't be so resentful, think about it, if I hadn't saved you before, you would have been killed by those twelve super reformers."

Hanyin asked back: "If you weren't here, how would the twelve super-reformers find you?"

"Fine."

Yang Ming took out the communicator connected to the Emperor Star Network, briefly searched for the nearest office of the Imperial Bank, and asked the driver to wait nearby.

He got out of the car and strolled for a few minutes. When he came back, he took two cards and threw them into Hanyin's arms.

"For you and the fragrant one, the monthly quota is three hundred, and you can spend it as you like."

The corner of Hanyin's mouth twitched, could three hundred imperial coins express such confidence?

Is it because she has a one-sided and wrong understanding of the purchasing power of the Imperial Coin?

Only later did she realize that in Yang Ming's words, the word 'ten thousand' was omitted.

On the way to the hotel, Yang Ming asked her with some puzzlement:

"Didn't you say that you have a high status in your organization? How can you say that if you are sent out, you will be sent out."

Hanyin was silent for a few minutes, and when he was about to get out of the car, he said:

"To His Majesty, I am no longer pure.

"I'm not referring to the body, but the mind. In my actions, I made mistakes such as considering personal gains and losses and helping you hide my whereabouts. I was extremely lucky to be able to walk out of the palace alive.

"Our lives are all derived from His Majesty's gift."

gift?

Yang Ming smiled and shook his head, but didn't say much.

...

When Yang Ming returned to the residence, Catherine was packing her luggage.

She has received a transfer order issued by the Overhauler Command Center, and is about to rush back to the Overhauler headquarters to accept the second thought mark.

It can be seen that she is anxious and difficult to bear. After seeing Yang Ming, her eyes immediately lit up with fire.

"Handon, I'm running out of time, can you help me now?"

Yang Ming shook his head seriously: "Catherine, I can take you away, but I can't imprint you with a mental brand... because of the chip in your brain."

Catherine frowned and said, "I can bear this part of the risk."

"I can't bear this part of the risk," Yang Ming stared at Catherine, "If your chip has a positioning function, I can make some electromagnetic shielding devices for you, which is much simpler than biological information shielding instruments."

"You mean, I left the super reformer organization and hid?"

"Yes," Yang Ming said, "I can arrange everything for you, feign death and escape. In the short period of time in the future, in about three to five years, we may spend less time together, but the days to come will be very long."

Catherine took two steps back, sat on a chair, and covered her forehead with her hands.

She said softly: "I don't want to be your vassal or accessory, Hanton. I think we should be equal, not unilaterally dependent."

"Don't think about it, it's meaningless," Yang Ming said softly, "Because we are lovers, so I'm willing to help you."

"But there are still some things I can't let go of."

Catherine's eyes were firm and bright, and she said quickly:

"I have my own pursuit, and I also want to realize my own life value. I love you, Hanton, but love shouldn't be everything to me. Let me solve this matter myself."

Yang Ming said, "It's impossible for Bligh to help you."

Catherine's eyes flickered, and she said in a low voice: "I can't tell you too much about this for now, but please believe that I will minimize the impact on you."

A little light flashed in Yang Ming's mind, and he suddenly thought of some side plots in "The Abyss".

He subconsciously checked whether several layers of shielding devices were activated normally, walked up to Catherine, raised his hand and grabbed her wrist, pressed his forehead against her forehead, and said in a low voice:

"Some super reformers want to revolt, right? You are also one of them, right? Before I came to Emperor Star, your thinking has already changed, and you can't hide it from me."

Catherine froze for a moment.

Yang Ming said: "There has always been a small organization within the super-reformers, right?"

"Hendon, I can't tell you that."

Yang Ming raised his hand to cover his forehead, and paced back and forth in front of her.

Catherine struggled a bit in her eyes, but she still said: "This is just your guess, my dear, please don't make such terrible guesses, I have deep feelings for the empire."

"Do you know who you're fighting against?"

Yang Ming unconsciously brought on some emotion, he suppressed his voice and growled:

"It's the defense system of the entire empire! It's the strongest political system in the galaxy that has been accumulated for tens of thousands of years! You should have seen what happened to the elders of the House of Elders who were in power for a while!

"The new federation has the second strongest military force in the galaxy, and it's being rubbed against by the empire!

"Do you think you are sixth-order female insects?

"This is asking for death! Even if you can survive for a while, it is impossible to survive for too long!"

Catherine pressed her fingers: "Don't worry about these things, Hanton, you don't have to worry about me."

"I don't care who cares about you? Director Rewa? Or the Imperial House of Elders?"

Yang Ming continued pacing, thinking one after another in his mind, but found that the only way he could save Catherine was to knock her unconscious and take her out of Emperor Star, and then fly away immediately.

Catherine suddenly stepped forward and hugged Yang Ming.

Yang Ming also realized that he was too anxious.

Things haven't happened yet, and Catherine hasn't gone to the opposite side of the empire. He still has the opportunity to use other means to protect Catherine and prevent her from being branded ideologically.

"I'll accompany you to the Overhauler's headquarters," Yang Ming said, "I'll let them find a way to take out the chip in your brain, or turn it off."

Catherine shook her head lightly: "This is my business, I can handle it myself. Let's not think about it, we just need to experience happiness and happiness."

"You're happy when you're dying?"

Catherine smiled, turned Yang Ming around, and kissed him proactively.

Yang Ming dodged twice, but in the end he couldn't bear to push her away, and kissed each other with her, the two began to respond to each other's requests tacitly and enthusiastically.

Two galaxies later.

With his hands in his pockets, Yang Ming stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room of his residence, looking at the bustling city outside the window, carefully thinking about how to deal with this matter.

The warship that came to pick him up was already ready at the Emperor Star Spaceport, and he needed to report for duty within twelve galactic hours.

Catherine was about to leave in half an hour at most, and the small airship organized by the super-reformers was already waiting on the nearby apron.

He still couldn't persuade Catherine to give up that dangerous idea.

Moreover, Catherine did not betray her comrades, even though Yang Ming exhausted all means in and out of the bed, she insisted on not revealing any information about the small group within the overhauler.

Thought imprinting is not reliable.

This thing can indeed subtly change a person's concept of right and wrong and basic cognition, but because of its simple structure, it is easy to lead in the wrong direction.

Not counting the ideological imprints of the super-reformers that were modified by the Presbyterian Court without permission;

The ideological imprint of the overhaulers is usually a phrase of "loyalty to the Sherman Empire and devotion to oneself".

This loyalty to the Sherman Empire has a lot of room for flexibility.

In particular, after the super-reformers came into contact with Emperor Star, the paradise of the great nobles, the ideological impact produced could easily make them have some extreme thoughts.

[The empire does not need these moths. 】

[There is a problem with the existing system of the empire, modifying this system can create a better empire].

——Concepts like this are possible.

Of course Yang Ming had no sense of belonging to the Sherman Empire, he just wanted to gain a firm foothold here to achieve his two goals.

First, try to influence the power structure in "Faya's Game", and try to help your home planet at the NPC level.

Second, if the human beings on the mother planet are lucky enough to pass the examination and enter the Milky Way, he has enough influence to protect them and save them from the fate of being enslaved and being eaten.

If he is strong enough, he may be able to retain part of the cultural heritage of his home planet.

So he is trying to become Grand Duke of the Empire.

And he is now on a fast track to promotion.

Even now, Yang Ming has started to look for a suitable candidate for the next emperor of the empire, and has some crazy plans in his mind.

He understood Catherine perfectly.

If Catherine can ensure that she is not in danger, he can also support Catherine morally.

But now, the empire has not weakened, and the chaotic environment presented in the background of the stand-alone version of "Abyss" does not exist in the empire. The evil empire has not yet become the target of everyone's shouting.

A small team of super reformers does not have any conditions for a successful uprising!

If Catherine and the others insisted on doing this, they would simply be imitating the Great Elder and engaging in coercion—looking for death.

Yang Ming scratched the short hair on top of his head.

Did he tie Catherine directly?

Catherine is a super reformer, unless she is completely imprisoned, as long as Yang Ming leaves her side, she can easily escape.

Yang Ming also couldn't bear to treat her like this.

Her soul, which has been pursuing freedom, shines brightly.

That is also the light on her body that attracts Yang Ming the most.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and Catherine, who was already fully dressed, came out lazily.

"What's the matter?"

Catherine asked softly.

Yang Ming came back to his senses, turned around and looked at Catherine, and the two looked at each other.

"When will you act?" Yang Ming asked in a deep voice.

"Depending on the situation of the ideological imprint this time, our preparations are seriously insufficient," Catherine said softly, "You don't care about these... let's separate."

"You don't want to use such a ridiculous reason to separate from me."

Yang Ming glared at her.

Catherine put her hands in the windbreaker pockets and smiled softly:

"Well, if one day they ask you to assist in the investigation, you will tell everything about me, and then say that our relationship is a sleeping relationship, not a love relationship."

"I don't quite understand. Why do you do something you know you have no chance of winning?"

"If you don't try, how do you know that you really have no chance of winning?"

Catherine sighed softly:

"The super-reformers themselves are experimental products, and the more than one hundred super-reformers whose ideological imprints have been modified by the elders' house have been sent to the ascending dimension laboratory.

"We fully understand the importance of the dimension-ascension experiment to human civilization, and we have no objection to the end of our own destiny.

"But we feel that we can make some attempts that will make our destiny journey more meaningful."

She paused in her words, took the initiative to hug Yang Ming's arm, and coaxed him a few words coquettishly.

Catherine smiled and said, "Okay, in fact, the situation you envisioned is only a minimum probability event. We still have many opportunities. I can promise you that as long as there is a chance, I will not go to extremes."

"You really don't need me to accompany you to the overhaul headquarters?"

"Need not."

Catherine glanced at the communicator: "They are urging me again. I will report first. I will send you a message when I am free. If I have a holiday, I will find you. How about it?"

"En." Yang Ming raised his hand to caress her cheek, but he didn't say much.

Catherine kissed him on the face, lifted the suspended suitcase beside him, and when she walked to the door, she looked back at Yang Ming and smiled, and waved gently.

The corridor glowed with a light yellow halo, and she still looked so beautiful with her long hair draped over her shoulders.

When the door was closed, Yang Ming looked down at his palm in a sense of loss.

One by one, it's all like this.

Yang Ming was stunned for a moment, the words that the old emperor had said before flashed across his mind, there was a sentence in it, when the old emperor said it, his voice became a little heavier.

'You'd better stay away from super-reformers. '

Yang Ming: ...

this!

He wanted to rush out to stop Catherine, but he immediately realized that once Catherine stepped out of this room, she might be under the surveillance of the Tentacle Organization the whole time.

It's not that simple.

The uprising of the small group of overhaulers is doomed to fail.

To break the game, if you want to save Catherine, you can only find a way to break the game.

Yang Ming knew that he was not at the end of his rope, and he even began to think about what kind of benefits he could get from this incident while saving Catherine.

All planning must revolve around his own core plan, and his personal emotional appeal can only be restrained rationally.

Yang Ming turned on his watch, thought over and over again, and sent an action command to Li.

[Contact Bligh and ask him to prepare for a secret communication. I will leave Emperor Star immediately and will contact him later. 】

[Yes, boss. 】
