The passionate music sounded, covering all the sounds in the auditorium.

Under the strict military education, although the students are all wearing suits and long dresses, they still look tall and straight even when they sit quietly in their seats.

Ming Jiang was wearing a formal suit for the first time, he lowered his eyebrows and loosened the tie around his neckline.

After the medal awarding ceremony, the school also prepared a final dance for the students who are about to start the final assessment, which will be held after each semester.It's just that this year happened to coincide with the Star League Medal Awarding Ceremony, so the school leaders hit it off and decided to hold the two at the same time.

There was constant music in his ear, Ming Jiang listened to the rambling words on the stage, and he could still pay attention to observe a side door of the auditorium.

The side door faced north, and it was located in a remote place but very close to the aircraft parking pad. If nothing else, would Cross come in through that side door? After all, he never paid attention to the traditional rule that the king must go through the main door.

In addition to Cross and some teachers from the school, many Lotus officers also came to the medal awarding ceremony, and they all came to see the "future" of the Lotus Empire.

As the first general who graduated from the Lotus Military Academy, Lu Lin sat in the middle of all the people, and the position next to him was reserved for the number one Lotus, Clos Lotus.

Ming Jiang, one of the future, heard some discussions, his voice was extremely low, but it was very clear in the quiet auditorium.

The teacher and some officers who were sitting on the high platform stood up immediately, and the headmaster of the school, Alpha, walked towards the side door, and all the students all looked at the north side door.

Closs in a military suit walked in under everyone's eyes, his military boots stepped on the ground, and the footsteps kept hitting the eardrums of everyone present.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I spun 360 degrees and screamed, Your Majesty is so handsome! I can't see the father of three children at all!"

"Although, your Majesty's love, marriage and childbirth process is early and fast, it's not normal at a young age... Many people who marry late and have children only get married at this age orz"

"So why is Your Majesty getting married so early QAQ, I have no chance!"

"Call the one in front??? Your majesty got married not because you wanted to get married, but because you met that long-haired beauty. If it were someone else, I don't think your majesty will ever get married, fall in love and have children."

"Leave me alone, I wish I could get married right away! Who doesn't love long-haired beauties!"

"The beauty is too cold, staying with His Majesty is like being stared at by two gods of death... It's too scary, I still prefer His Highness Elijah and the little beauty with long hair"

"I seem to be disconnected from the Internet, who is the little beauty with long hair?"

"Third Highness, long hair, beauty, young"

"...666, I hope the previous ones will still have an account. As far as I know, those two who coveted those two have been banned for three days."

Cross walked to the seat next to Lu Lin and sat down, followed by Alpha. After seeing Cross' gesture to continue, he immediately started the next process.

This is the official start of the medal awarding ceremony.

Ming Jiang and the others walked to the high platform in order of seating.

Both Nora and Celia chose long dresses for women, especially Celia. She compromised with her elderly grandma and wore her favorite trailing long dress.trouble.

When Celia walked to the steps of the high platform, Ming Jiang bent down to lift up the hem of the skirt that was in the way for her.

Celia turned her head and said thank you generously, then walked up the stairs confidently.

But in the eyes of everyone, when Ming Jiang lifted the skirt for Celia, Alois, who was walking at the end, also stared at Ming Jiang.Just like the appearance when he stepped off the warship that time, Alois seemed to always be like a knight, always guarding Ming Jiang's side.

This kind of medal awarding ceremony, which may not happen once every two years, is still rare, and the school also attaches great importance to it. The high platform that was originally only covered with wooden floors was deliberately covered with a solemn red carpet.

When Celia walked up, the side skirt rolled up the neatly laid red carpet.

Seeing that the red carpet and the hem of the skirt were about to become entangled, Ming Jiang bent down and raised the hem of the skirt on the side a little bit to avoid accidents in the live broadcast room with billions of viewers.

However, because he paid too much attention to Celia's skirt, when he stepped forward, he just stepped on the edge of the slightly rolled up red carpet, and his body center of gravity suddenly tilted, but both hands supported him in time.

As soon as Ming Jiang raised his head, Alois behind him withdrew his movements and even took a step back.

The movement of Cross holding on was very clever, as if he just offered help out of politeness.

If you ignore that the person in the polite hand is Cross.

"Thank you." Even if it was Kloss, Ming Jiang would thank him, which had almost become his instinctive habit.

Cross let go of his hand and said in a deep voice, "Be careful."

The number of bullet screens in the live broadcast room immediately reached a small climax. If some of the meaningless screams were not blocked, the entire live broadcast room would have been completely covered by the bullet screens and the top screen could not be seen clearly.

"Holding hands, holding hands!"

"His Highness Alois and His Majesty are really in sync, but the relationship between Alois and His Majesty is really a headache. After seeing His Majesty Cross, he immediately retracted his hand."

"Hey, it's normal. My dad and I are both lions in spirit, and there will be strong repulsion. The spirit will affect human instinct."

"Besides, His Highness Alois has always hated His Majesty because of that matter. Although His Highness has been found back, the experience of those eighteen years cannot disappear in thin air."

"Have fun! Don't discuss this!"

"My heart hurts a little. If there were no events eighteen years ago, the Third Highness must have grown up in Lotus or Vigsen. I think the Third Highness must have been very cute when he was a child!"

"The blue eyes are really beautiful! Like ice and snow!!!"

"The golden color is also very nice, but the eyes of His Majesty and His Royal Highness Alois are too fierce, and they are very gentle on His Royal Highness Elijah. I really like the eyes of His Highness Elijah."

"I also like His Royal Highness Elijah's eyes! But I prefer the blue eyes of His Highness Third Highness. I dare not draw such beautiful eyes."

"Cut to check the popularity of the live broadcast room. I'll go. There weren't so many people at His Royal Highness Alois' 18-year-old coming-of-age ceremony. You guys are too enthusiastic."

"There are also Vigsen people watching, but I don't know why they didn't come out to post barrage."

"I don't want to disturb the awarding ceremony of His Royal Highness Ming Jiang, and you like to make noise like everyone like your lotus brat."

"????"

"Forget it everyone, bear with it for a while, and wait until the ceremony is over before arguing"

...

Mingjiang and the others were awarded the Warrior Medal, which was hand-carved with the emblem of Lotus and the unique ID number bound to the terminal. Everyone's Warrior Medal is unique.

Cross placed the medals in everyone's hands, starting with Sangnamfeng and Nora, and ending with Mingjiang and Alois.

When walking in front of Ming Jiang and Alois, Cross slowed down a lot.He first sent the medal that was supposed to be the last one to Alois, and then took the remaining medal from Julf.

"Very powerful." Ming Jiang heard Cross's whispered encouragement to him, and the moment the medal was buckled on his shoulder, Cross's hug also enveloped him.

Qiongqi's instinct made Ming Jiang's muscles tense to the extreme, but soon Di Xiushu calmed Qiongqi who wanted to jump out in a rage.

A faint cool fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose, which is the perfume commonly used in Klose's study, which can relieve physical fatigue.

Feeling that Ming Jiang's body in his arms gradually softened, Cross felt that his heart also softened.

He gently lifted the ends of Ming Jiang's hair, and stared at Ming Jiang with golden eyes full of power.

Ming Jiang was a little confused, so he didn't know what Cross was going to do, but he still stood there patiently.

When seeing Kloss leaning over, Ming Jiang's body suddenly froze, and he felt incredible.

Cross leaned over and kissed the ends of his hair.

This is not a strange behavior, but a unique benefit of the Lotus Empire, a kiss gift that is only used between relatives.

But everyone also knows that Cross has never used this kind of kissing ceremony in public. Tantai went to Vigsen early, and the discord between Alois and Cross is well known in the empire.matter.

What's more, although the people of Lotus love and respect Clos Lotus who led them to liberate from the exploitation of the old nobles, they also clearly understand the character of Clos.

Their indifferent kings, who don't like to get close, will probably never use this kind of kiss to send gifts to their children in this life.

But all that was shattered today, when Cross performed the act of endearment to his youngest child at the much-anticipated award ceremony, watched by several countries.

Three seconds later, the empire's most advanced network technology was unable to withstand the enthusiasm of the audience in the live broadcast room, and successfully stuck to a black screen.

When the live broadcast room was repaired, only Principal Alpha was left on the high platform speaking some concluding official words.

"Ahhhhh! I hate it! Why can't the Times Center hire more people to maintain the live broadcast system with so much money!"

"No woo woo woo, did anyone take a screenshot of the kiss and send the gift just now?"

"No, it is not allowed to take screenshots or record screens in normal live broadcasts. This is the case wherever His Majesty appears."

"Sure enough, the Third Highness treats His Majesty differently?"

"This is His Majesty's public acknowledgment of the status of His Highness the Third Highness, so why is there no return ceremony for His Highness!"

"Didn't we discuss it before, the Third Highness may not like such cumbersome ceremonies or dinners?"

"So Your Majesty did this on purpose in front of everyone to prove the identity of the Third Highness? I saw many people from other countries mocking our Third Highness, saying what if he came back, and he was not recognized by the royal family.so angry"

"According to the current situation, I feel... If His Majesty the Third Highness says that he wants the position of king, His Majesty will give it without hesitation."

"But our Third Highness looks like a person who wants nothing orz"

"Ah, after the awarding ceremony of the medal is over, it will be the final ball of the military school. I saw His Royal Highness Alois and the Third Highness wearing suits and gowns!"

"I saw it too. Quietly say that His Royal Highness Alois is so handsome, the hormones are exploding, and the Third Highness is more like a little prince."

"Your Majesty the Third Highness is like a little prince. I suggest you go back to the live broadcast of the Star League. One-handed shooting made me so handsome. I am only eighteen years old and my combat power is so strong. I still have a dual-spirited body. In the future, my force value will explode."

"I remember it too! The picture of three Qiongqi has taken root in my mind! It's so spectacular, I don't know if I can see the scene of four Qiongqi occupying one side in this life."

"Think boldly! Before, we didn't dare to think that His Majesty would use kisses to send gifts to others!"

"Long hair but violent but beautiful, this attribute is more handsome, okay?"

"The topic seems to be so crooked that it cannot be described. I remind everyone to be careful of being banned."

...

"The live broadcast is about to be closed, and the end-of-term ball is not open to the media." Alois helped Ming Jiang fix the strand of hair that had been kissed.

"The venue behind the auditorium is also open, let's go there later."

"Remember to wash your hair when you go back."

"..." Ming Jiang quietly looked at Alois, caught a glimpse of the other's disgusted but patient expression, and couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth.

His bony fingers flicked on his forehead, it was Tantai Chao who just came.

"Your second brother is about to explode." Tantai Chao calmly added some firewood to Alois, "You still have to laugh."

As soon as Tan Taichao finished speaking, Alois really exploded with anger.

Alois' fist had already appeared in front of Tantai Chao's face, Tantai Chao turned his head slowly.

The punch missed, and seeing that Alois was about to make a move, Ming Jiang hastily held him back.

"The dance is about to begin."

After being dissuaded by Ming Jiang, Alois let go of his fist reluctantly, hooked Ming Jiang's shoulders and walked towards the dance venue.

Tantai was not angry at all, he turned around with a smile and walked towards the north door of the auditorium.

He is not a student of the Lotus Imperial Military Academy, so naturally he cannot go to the students' end-of-term ball.

He needed to discuss something with Cross more than that.

...

The soft piano music is accompanied by the interlacing of toasts, and the high-hanging crystal lamps are shining with dazzling light.

The lights were intertwined, and the students also wore various dresses to shuttle between the venues.

In a corner of the venue, the grey-haired but still hale and hearty Principal Alpha led the teachers to greet the group of officers. Ming Jiang saw Lu Lin among them, and he was particularly eye-catching no matter where he stood.

From time to time, other people's voices praising Lu Lin could be heard intermittently, but they could not escape Ming Jiang's ears.

"Ah, Lord Admiral is really handsome, the kind who can be equally as handsome as His Majesty! It seems to be married to Lord Admiral!"

"There should be no girl who doesn't want to marry the land general!"

"Are you right? Only girls want to marry! Men want to marry too!"

Speaking in a rough voice, Ming Jiang deliberately glanced sideways. He was a strong man with a height of nearly two meters.

Ming Jiang: ...

That's not necessary.

Ming Jiang didn't like this lively scene very much, after taking a glass of wine from the wine tower, he found a quiet corner, leaned against the window and looked at the green plants outside.

This is the most plant in the school - young, as the name suggests, it is green all year round, and it is also a favorite tree of all schools.

Celia trotted over with the hem of the skirt in one hand and something in the other, her demeanor and movements were quite different from her elegant and cumbersome skirt.

"This wine will taste much better with ice cubes, but drinking alone will be very strong." Celia poured the specially brought ice cubes into Ming Jiang's wine, "By the way, His Royal Highness Alois was killed by severalThe grandson of the elder in the parliament stopped him, and he asked me to tell you not to drink too much."

Ming Jiang pursed her lips: "I know."

Celia left quickly again, Ming Jiang shook the wine glass in his hand, and the ice cubes hit the wall of the goblet, making a crisp jingling sound.

He took a sip, the spicy wine irritated his throat, but it was quickly relieved by the ice cubes.

Celia was right, this wine does taste better with ice cubes.

Ming Jiang looked out of the window, Lu Lin came over at some point, and suddenly cast a lot of eyes on the originally hidden corner.

Ming Jiang turned his back to the crowd, and then drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"It's easy to get drunk like this."

"Sleep when you're drunk." Ming Jiang held the empty wine glass in his hand, resting his wrist on the window frame, "Shouldn't you be with the principal?"

"I'm bored, let's walk around." Lu Lin handed the glass of wine in his hand to Ming Jiang, "Or, I just took it, but I haven't drunk it yet."

Ming Jiang looked at the glass of wine seriously, and finally took the glass of wine from Lu Lin's hand.

Without knowing it at all, there was a commotion in the venue when the two hands touched.

The glass of wine in Lu Lin's hand was also filled with ice cubes, Ming Jiang looked down at the ice cubes slowly melting in the light blue wine, then raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

"Anything bothering you?"

Ming Jiang tilted his head and looked at Lu Lin, the wind blew up the window screens in the venue, blocking the two of them from everyone's sight.

"It's okay." Ming Jiang looked at the young man in front of him, his blue eyes narrowed slightly, "I'm just a little confused."

"about what."

"About everything."

The atmosphere between the two became strange again, and after blurting out that sentence, Ming Jiang didn't speak again.

Alcohol made Ming Jiang's head slow down, and he suddenly remembered Lu Lin's past experience.

"Admiral Lu." Ming Jiang spoke slowly, his eyes were a little blurred, as if drunk, "Have you ever been confused?"

Lu Lin: "Of course, everyone will be confused, as long as you find your goal."

"Do you know what I want to do?"

"Maybe it's the destruction of Fengtian Church."

Ming Jiang looked at him in surprise, as if surprised how the other party knew so clearly.

"You showed your dislike for Fengtian Church very clearly in the Star League." Lu Lin said, "Besides, you should have done those two Al Federation students."

Ming Jiang pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing a perfunctory smile.

"Yes." he asked, "cruel?"

"No." Lu Lin said, "What they have done is much crueler than you."

Ming Jiang has read the information of the two from Alois. The new generation cultivated by Fengtian Church has some traces of genetic modification in their spiritual bodies.

In other words, the abilities the two of them obtained were experimentally obtained from many children who were forcibly taken away from the garbage planet.

This is why Ming Jiang will destroy their spiritual power in the end.

"Your technique is very neat." Lu Lin praised Ming Jiang's technique, "If it was someone else, you might torture them."

"Not enough time." Ming Jiang uttered the truth. Al Federation and Fengtian Church were staring at the hospital. If it wasn't for the lack of time, he might consider returning the pain of the experiment to the two of them bit by bit.

Lu Lin put his hand on Ming Jiang's shoulder: "In the future, it can be returned to those core personnel in Fengtian Church."

A large area of red still appeared on Ming Jiang's face, and even the watery eyes appeared in the blue eyes.

"Father spent twenty years and failed to eradicate Fengtian Church, can I do it?"

Ming Jiang's moist blue eyes looked at Lu Lin.

These are the most beautiful eyes that Lu Lin has ever seen. After the mental disorder, Lu Lin once heard some of the army commanders under his command discuss that His Highness's eyes are more beautiful than the most expensive sapphire in the empire.

It must be difficult for such a pair of beautiful eyes to survive in a garbage planet.

"I don't know." Lu Lin said, "But I can help you."

...

When Ming Jiang became conscious again, it was already late at night.

He sat up from the bed, his head hurt like a pinprick.

A robot stood in the room. After scanning Ming Jiang's waking up, the robot handed over the hangover soup that had been warming in his stomach for a long time.

Ming Jiang had a severe headache and was reluctant to drink, so he stirred it a few times and put it on the bedside cabinet.

He got out of bed and stepped on the carpet with his bare feet. Outside the closed window, he could see the shadows of the trees shaking in the strong wind.

He still remembered what Lu Lin said before he got drunk.

He will help himself to destroy Fengtian Church, which has been doing evil for many years.

Ming Jiang has already decided whether his dislike of Fengtian Church is due to his own experience or more sympathy for those victims.

But the Fengtian Church really can no longer continue their behavior. Genetic experiments can be said to be prohibited in the entire star, let alone human genetic experiments like the Fengtian Church.

Ming Jiang sat on the sofa in the room and looked at the only written test book before the final assessment. When Tan Taichao walked in after dawn, Ming Jiang just reviewed all the content of the assessment.

"Why didn't you go down to eat when you woke up?" Tan Taichao walked into the room.

Ming Jiang rubbed his temples, the pain in his head didn't subside, on the contrary it got worse: "It's uncomfortable, I don't want to eat."

Tan Taijing saw the almost undrinked hangover soup on the bedside cabinet.

"Eat something and then go to bed, or you will feel uncomfortable all the time." Tan Taijing directed the robot to cook another bowl of soup to ease the hangover.

He was full of helplessness: "Why do you drink so much wine?"

"Not much, only two glasses." Ming Jiang drank the two glasses of wine because he was depressed.

However... it brought some unexpected answers.

Thinking of Lu Lin's promise to him, Ming Jiang finally pulled himself together: "I'm going to take a shower, and I'll go downstairs for dinner right away."

"go quickly."

...

Time passed faster than Ming Jiang imagined, and Ming Jiang never saw Lu Lin again. It is said that the Legion was busy with affairs.

After finishing the only written examination, Ming Jiang also ushered in his final field assessment on the battlefield.
