In the evening, the wedding reception for Cagalli and Yura Seran was held as usual. However, Cagalli was taken away by the Freedom Gundam and her whereabouts were unknown. Yura Seran and his old man brought a lot of Orb's belongings with them. Cabinet officials and military officers were all imprisoned in cells, so the reception turned into a welcome reception for Xiao Ran. It was also a place for Xiao Ran to express his apology to the delegations from various countries who were shocked today.
Among them, the small neutral countries that have always been attached to the third force under Orb are the happiest. They are also neutral countries like Orb, but they are also forced to join that so-called world because of the hegemony of the alliance. In the security alliance, Xiao Ran's appearance can change their current situation to a certain extent. Everyone knows that Xiao Ran is not a master who is afraid of fighting, and he really has the ability to do what he says.
Once Orb takes the lead, and they follow closely to gather all their forces together, the alliance really does not dare to actively provoke Xiao Ran under the strong military pressure of Zaft at this time. Some people can even see that. Maybe soon someone from the alliance will jump out to stabilize the mood on Orb's side.
In addition to the representatives of these small countries, the other happy people are of course the few people sent by PNT to congratulate them. Although Orb was preparing to join the World Security Alliance, after all, Orb and pnt has had many collaborations before, so before he really fell out with him completely, he would still follow these etiquettes in the way that old fox Durandal did.
Orb is opposed to joining the World Security Alliance. The representatives of PNT seem very happy. After all, Orb is the third largest military system, and the World Security Alliance is targeting PNT. Now Orb has announced that he will not join. , which has greatly relieved a lot of their pressure. What's more, Xiao Ran is also preparing to declare war on the alliance, which also makes the representatives of pnt see the hope of cooperation and bring Obra into their front.
So throughout the night, from the beginning to the end of the reception, there were countless people surrounding Xiao Ran, but they also knew that today was not the time to talk about those things, but to surround Xiao Ran and say some compliments.
It was not until the reception was over that Xiao Ran, protected by a group of guards, left with a bit of a bang and temporarily moved into the newly built mansion of the Asha family.
Now Xiao Ran's guard level is extremely high. Not only because of Xiao Ran's current status in Orbu, especially because the news about Xiao Ran being kidnapped by the alliance after he retired two years ago has spread, the entire Orbu, regardless of official status, has spread. Yes, many people held their breath in their hearts, and even raised his guard level to the highest level to prevent the same thing from happening. Of course, this also represented the fact that Cagalli was taken away.
There are many people around Xiao Ran in any action he takes. The area around the Asha family's mansion where he lives temporarily is under full martial law and is directly under the responsibility of the military. Although this is somewhat unnecessary for Xiao Ran, he will not stop him. The people below did not allow them to do this. Now Orb's nerves were too nervous. Apart from so many things in succession, Xiao Ran was not willing to tease their nervous nerves anymore, so he followed their arrangements.
Just after entering the unfamiliar Asha family's mansion and sitting down, Baji Lulu walked up to Xiao Ran holding a small computer, turned on the small computer and read the contents on it while reporting to Xiao Ran: " Your Excellency, the Mars delegation, the PNT delegation, and the delegation of the third neutral force headed by Orb have just submitted requests to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a formal meeting, hoping that we can respond as soon as possible. In addition, the Atlantic Federation, the European Union Both the Asian Federation and the East Asian Federation have proposed to hold talks with you."
"In addition, except for a few of the members and allies of the Seran family who have escaped, the rest have been detained. Your final decision is also up to you."
"The military also issued a formal statement in the afternoon. It will provide unconditional support to you, sir. At the same time, it also sent orders to all troops stationed abroad. They will all return within a month at the latest. The Orb Army has already We have fully entered a state of combat readiness, and the selection of outstanding pilots will also begin tomorrow."
"The government and the military need you to make arrangements and sign for the vacancies created by arresting the Seram family and their henchmen."
A lot of things came out of Baji Lulu's mouth, which made Xiao Ran take a long breath and sit up straight again. After thinking about it, he said: "The government and military personnel should be supplemented by the cabinet and the National Defense Headquarters. Select suitable personnel and hand them over to me to sign and accept their fate. All the talks will be agreed to by them. The time will be arranged according to your schedule. You must also be well prepared in terms of combat preparations, so that the Shuguang Society can start to expand immediately and recover as much as possible the original losses. technicians, and then start developing the aircraft for the ace-level pilots. I will tell them the specific requirements after Shuguang Club is ready."
"In addition, find a place to set up a post-disaster relief camp in Aubon and officially start to receive refugees who suffered during the war. However, normal people or adjusters can receive them. Relief materials must be prepared in advance. A news report will be arranged three days later. At the press conference, I will be on stage in person.”
"Finally, I will move the Sailan family's mansion out and tidy it up. After all, this is the Asghar family's mansion. It doesn't matter if I stay here for a few days. It will still be a bit uncomfortable if I stay for too long. It’s so suitable.”
Baji Lulu nodded while writing down Xiao Ran's words. At this time, a man who looked like a housekeeper walked in lightly, bowed slightly to Xiao Ran and then said: "Sir, there is a guest coming to visit. , hope to meet you."
"At this time?" Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who is it?"
The housekeeper said: "It's the young lady above."
As soon as the butler said it, Xiao Ran knew who this so-called eldest lady was. Lund Mina Sahak, the Shadow War God of Orb, was one of the successors of the orthodox Orb like Cagalli. The leader of the Heavenly Pillar and the real advocate of the heretical plan, he is independent from the universe because he has different ideas from the Asha family.
"Why is she here? And she comes to visit me?" Xiao Ran was a little surprised, but he still nodded to the housekeeper: "I understand, you bring her in."
"Yes, sir." The housekeeper nodded and turned to leave. Xiao Ran also looked at Bucky Lulu and said, "That's it for now. The things I arranged will be handled as soon as possible. You can go first."
Bucky Lulu also nodded and left, and a few minutes later Xiao Ran saw Mina Lund walking in in a full dress.
After the housekeeper brought Mina to Xiao Ran, he quietly turned around and left. Mina, Orb's Shadow Army God, stood in front of Xiao Ran and looked at Xiao Ran seriously. Xiao Ran also followed suit. He stood up on the sofa and looked at each other.
The long hair flowed straight down. Although his face had unique female features and softness, Xiao Ran could also feel a kind of arrogance from the other person. Seeing him, Xiao Ran thought of the first time he came to this world. At that time, another person with the same appearance who was killed by him, Luo and Cong Yungai was also Mina's brother, Gina.
Xiao Ran did not ask why the other party came, and Mina did not let the doubt remain for too long. He just looked at Xiao Ran with a faint smile, and said unhurriedly: "Unexpectedly, in the end, You actually let an outsider take charge of Orb, the Asghar family, the Seran family, including my Sahak family, all of them have become your stepping stones. From the beginning of the Dawn Society, you have forced my Sahak family to do nothing. If we don’t let go of Shuguang Society, we will have no choice but to succumb to the Heavenly Pillar in the future.”
"Then you gained the trust of the former representative Asghar and carried out the task of entrusting you. Today, you arrested the last Seran family and their members who could threaten your position. It can be said that no one in the entire Orb will be yours." Opponent, even if Cagalli comes back, it won't work, and as long as you deny his identity, she will never gain Orb's rights again."
"The entire Orb has been completely calculated by you from top to bottom. From a useless university assistant to being in charge of Orb for the second time in a short period of time, you are now the most vocal leader of Orb. Your ability is indeed It is very surprising. No one would have thought that Orb, established by so many aristocratic families, would end up in the hands of an outsider with nothing. Even if you control everything about Orb now, do you know that among so many aristocratic families? How much are they sincere to you? How much will they hate you for taking away their rights?"
Xiao Ran nodded and said with a smile: "First of all, I want to clarify that I have never had any calculations about Orb. It was a coincidence that I got to this point today. In addition, Cagalli's departure was their own decision. I didn’t take any action here, and the Seran family’s approach is indeed against Orb’s ideals. As a minister of Tuogu represented by Ashar, there is nothing wrong with my decision.”
"As for the people you mentioned who hate me and oppose me, in the critical situation Orb is facing now, I can only take special measures against them. I believe no one will choose to jump out and touch me at this time. Damn it, even if I let them go at that time, the military and the people will not let them go. But you, who is independent of the Heavenly Pillar, would come to visit me at such a time. This is what makes me feel strange. place."
Mina looked at Xiao Ran, leaned forward slightly and said word by word: "I'm just here to remind you not to bring Orb into danger." (.)
