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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoPAmD7sYX

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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSsbGKHHqe
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0hJhs0WAA

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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtB5nifnAXM
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsnSJysLRf
「原諒我……埋首工作，都沒注意到妳已經……長這麼大了……」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgYF9TqsS7
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLO8pj0v7F
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……」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ570x1jlR4R
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIz1V4QViy

不要相信任何人。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErlKtshsO1

沉重告誡閃過布麗姬特腦海。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcp7MZX0agN
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tBxYMMzvE
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFwsIMjvcA
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRCYq6sgcr
「小儲存碟？在哪裡？」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYchl9IwVd

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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlOws6seaH
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ksAiZpv62
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx62xN2csJ
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywHymMzvIS
一片黑，什麼都看不見。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7YXLUANx9
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIyJuXuGvb
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEDf9xAfvo
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jllGLq9To
「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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAGDqyuYUg

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。」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUEoL6RWCA
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzMgKjVwK5
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgfufvOWiG
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFC9FOGJRNz
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqczMjkXBqN

「快逃、快逃……」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2QyCN55Wu

但是，又能逃去哪？沒了家室，她要怎麼活下去？549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvHzKEsKgf
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmV7If2EG9
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuIyUYHUM6
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePSyZwtqAf
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfK6IFhMXvJ

「誰……騎士大人？」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4j4vUvpbVJ
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtFuxvmXjw
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFr1t1WAG0

549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIatF8GSnzf
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGjwg0T14o
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8WAK1Wh9N
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIRC9LQRbg

安寧病房窗外是紅色汪洋，母親嚥下最後一口氣。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5N1P2L38j
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsbJdxCQeC
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGxSaHTLOV

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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7Yx83wBoW
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS5hjjkNAS
「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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbrCQPGAqi
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkc4wJBE9J
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF2VH9wYuV
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGSsTOUhLJ

549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64pR3B1jKo
「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？」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9btKNJ6ODU
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡram8yv8Ap1
「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。」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGalsdQkXUQ
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFnQzD3beu

549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly0AtoXijw
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……」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjMwfnYOrZ
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOlIFwc07A
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ2BxE0t72
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5I0dIapZP
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7sPpi3aKJ
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5BJHsSse1
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mutQ8iPEa
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOfLd4JaKG
「大小姐，請您忍耐！」549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FBHyCfPnu

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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNb9KlRDz4
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVHRAifaLT
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRHoxVM9y1

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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7h2LlDAuY4
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlYLPoRLZQ
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcY9ZfZOcDu

549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDh3CPfavg6
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsS7ylssst
549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUHKZTBhI4
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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4BOpRY4rC

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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIua4pKBdQ

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。549Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7B5n9BFn1b

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。
