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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcC2GiPBNj

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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwbotIPdEj
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhJYAdmjyd
「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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeTyh1I77p
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2dNgsXALE
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhePf73DPP

「好，BB，列出代辦事項。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FWAwbrVwP
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tpIXriLNu
「代辦事項，總共：五百八十三件。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF7Ogb1hyc
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXcd2lvA4k
「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？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRroUN3ORPr
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS6GlyjZFk
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMqm3AhH3w
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsMvTLBH4N
「請源隆首相舉行軍演、整肅內政，讓民眾知道火星受到保護，『崩月』事件絕對不會重演，下一個。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedbItRf3Yz
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9lAwUXmVs
「小行星帶礦場公會威脅罷工，要求把軍事核心轉回火星圈。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dTxtEIxQM
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOujqkeKUXv
「唉，每個人都不想讓打到家裡……我們攻下木星，清出外環航道，生意更好做了才對。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHJIFRHcZO
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuNjaFVjuo
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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpoiCYieQ2
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSPfs5bh7a
「篩選結果：九十八件⸺轉運站清查毒品交易路線，數量最多的是OBU分派組織，來自海王星……」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMmnBcKjsL
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRUvuKEeCB
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XpFaE0Bu0
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjxKixxs5K
「真正的和平……到底是什麼樣子……」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBk5553kIK

「大人，艾莉雅女士到達寢宮。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8uroY9gTU
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ45xFRPC6e
「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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdepmo6PYlE
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujSjdqmH2B
年幼的他首次與父親爾哈特合影，表情好不快樂。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFBLQLHWPZ
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksRFaHAXBC
「BB……你不會背叛人類吧？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ586xE45Ly
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgSGFYsy3d
「『背叛』屬於進階情感定義，超過運算限制，無法執行。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfa7odjJaD5
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG91z8yHEjx
「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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWd3JHPY5p8
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKVAg76vcP
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JirEezml1
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA0ME1JJiB
「哥，你來了！」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5x7dohtYi

「桑德斯，好久不見！」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7E93L3XxqQ
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzwI3fTeN5
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvH7VCm4xN
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wCBYqQ1h5
「母親大人……您是否安好？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXPKSPJrNH
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENeJgbJUPl
「安好？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qrsT2hTsh
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UMKq2IReT
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWXIOGC94H
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p2yUaVdFy
「我們生於月面，一心嚮往地球樂土，現在呢？退居火星，然後又退居木星……」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAXsPv45NS
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYK396EFXz
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbr6vKItFLm
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbjQuEajoY
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJcMGsOwxR
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4a1ZEQ9Jx
「可是……人民需要時間安定。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGP6PwSikY
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoocbE029Fe
「如果你要安定，薩邁爾，我就讓你弟桑德斯去戰場立功。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicJwr0DaOP
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOmdoYokvn
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtACekDKPGA
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlppmbmg30J
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihdffcmavG
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMsLXXER3B
「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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uOLKpfuAY
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUf331LTPT
「看來，你沒有遺傳到爾哈特的果決。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL6J6VGqtm
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOWrafRbHN
「可是，父親他……」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSBD68fgBr
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZgYNDXe7D
他當時還打算犧牲我們，吸引人民支持。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwCH1k68dw
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjCC3iQbA6
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlagkP1BcL8
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgzkoRYaoQ
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMJlwPTkGe
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDjnCMZ9ZV
「鈦仙……我知道了，好好休息吧⸺桑德斯，這裡就給你保護了。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJc9Wv1UnN
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhWvgt5C1x
「哥……是！元帥大人！」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ010F6pYLl3
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt5If2Ouos
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoJA3KbQDI
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8psw9unfK
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz6P3XoU11
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3KCuohC8y
「血緣，真是惱人的羈絆啊……元帥？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43RBGcXtWH
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAS3hYUWHm
「有話快說，鈦仙。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj5GxSiPGf
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBia3Xzqlbp
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANw8LxtwzD
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBt16wJGQQs
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTCV9a8Lpc
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToTPOJt7Ku
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkPNv2fT7C
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDp8ozmz3n
「寄生在有力量的那一方，就是長壽的秘訣？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjicPa1Tzd

「沒錯！等到絕對力量出現，我就能壽終正寢囉。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaEHpyNdQO
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApNEr9O4MP
鈦仙飄向宮外接駁船，尖酸話語不斷在元帥腦中打轉。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgum3EQB2NI
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6vI1ptYTp
「你要親手借用電子腦之力，還是要把重責大任丟給血親呢？」 387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJQeDqu6ei
「嘖！」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2w2ARh1DjU
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYTsILKbsl
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LpoeSqBxI
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXcISiPMyS
「元帥大人！」複製人士官⸺茵坦的聲音從後傳來，「您也來視察新機體？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Y0hkIR2jd
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkkXNJLuhc
「嗯……是啊，『高蓮茲』的狀態如何？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ECkv6izaf
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtDrQzPfcV

387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0m4wWkeV7T
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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uoJOabS4z
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUN3ldUHot
「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。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5LpyJqJDI
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXOVxxCItt
「變革，不能只在法條上看到，複製人等同道具的刻板印象，就靠妳來翻轉。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMwP8lGm1q
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUczJ3mO287
薩邁爾有點訝異，跟沒有血緣的對象談話，讓他無拘無束。387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRkujz2Gr6
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkz6ilqeaOn
「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。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvSmh2b2z8
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7jZareZqs
「現在只有送來您的中鋒機體專用武裝，前鋒駕駛員也還沒選定，到金星之前是否來得及呢？」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkP8hSDj8B5
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDyZX2sJcw
「我也希望能有充裕時間……」薩邁爾想到弟弟桑德斯，不禁皺起眉頭，「金星攻略充滿不確定因素，還得仰賴妳的直覺。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0sK88NW5u
387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHd7Qo68BB
「遵命。」茵坦想起莎拉‧赫克托。她全心祝福自己的表情，讓人感到內疚，「我絕不會辜負眾望。」387Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1P8oAcKZ2r

大量新月船艦排成長龍，依序進入內環航道，準備調查原初智的力量。等在前方的是陷阱，還是希望？
