After seeing the distress signal from Caesar Serathis, Mekatok was silent for a long time before finally making a decision to ask the adjutant to call the head general of the Lucas Ghost Fleet.

Half an hour later.

Lucas, the main general of the Ghost Fleet, has just arrived on the flagship, see Mekatok.

Mekatok waved his hand and waved the rest of the small conference room back, leaving only Lucas.

He looked at the newly promoted ghost fleet leader calmly, and looked at him without saying a word.

Although Lucas is the new leader of the ghost fleet, he is actually not young in the Palesse civilization.

His promotion method is somewhat similar to that of Mekatok, and he is all from the lower-level ethnic groups and has made merits through actual combat.

Due to poor background, the ability to obtain when young is relatively poor.

However, he had a good talent, so when he was middle-aged, when the new ghost fleet was selecting the main general, he passed all the assessments and competed with another noble to the final qualification to command the ghost fleet.

When he obtained the Godly Gift of the Temple of the Holy Temple, he successfully obtained the fleet concealment skills required by the Ghost Fleet, while another noble general did not succeed.

The noble faction originally wanted this noble to try again, and wanted to take the position of the new chief general of the Ghost Fleet.

Finally, Mekatokli Paolocas was promoted to the main general of the Ghost Fleet.

It can be said that Mekatok has the kindness of knowing him.

Otherwise, with his background, he might have to wait until the nobleman led the ghost fleet to die before he would have the chance to take office.

"Like you, I have come from the lower-level ethnic group, so we all know how difficult it is to get from the lower-level ethnic group to today..." Mekatok did not go directly to the topic, but raised the topic of origin.

Lucas immediately saluted and shouted: "Yes, General Mekatok, this is what you promoted. In the future, I will fight for you in all directions and die without regrets!"

Mekatok waved his hand and said, "We are all loyal to the Church."

"Yes, allegiance to the Holy Church!" Lucas replied loudly.

"Now, I have a secret mission that I want to hand over to you, but..."

Mekatok paused, his tone became more serious: "This task is very dangerous. Whether it is failure or success, it may die without a burial place. So, you can refuse."

When Lucas heard this, he looked shocked. He could think that this task must be very special, but he couldn't think of what it was for a moment.

Mekatok continued: "If you refuse this secret mission, I will not have any other requirements for you. You are still the leader of the Ghost Fleet. I choose you to come up and value your abilities.

"As for this secret mission, it will affect the fate of civilization, I can't think of any other better choice.

"I'd even go in person if I could, but the battle has begun and I can't leave the fleet now.

"You are thinking clearly now whether you want to listen to this secret mission or not.

"After listening to the task, you have no chance to look back.

"If you don't want to hear, turn around and leave now, just pretend that I didn't call you today."

When Lucas heard this, he knew that this secret mission might involve the fate of civilization, aristocratic factions, and even royal power.

He thought silently for a long time and asked, "If the general had a choice, would he do this?"

"meeting."

Mekatok answered only one word, but the firmness in his tone was impressive.

"Okay! Since this is the general's choice, I will take on this secret mission. I can see that there are not many people in the top leaders of the civilization who are truly giving their best for civilization. The general is one of them and the one who is the one who insists on the most. Since the general thinks that this thing should be done, then I will do it." Lucas made a promise.

When Mekatok heard this answer, he looked a little excited: "I did not read the wrong person, now I will tell you what this secret mission is.

"That's... to rescue Caesar Serathis."

“What…what?”

Although Lucas was mentally prepared and knew that this secret mission must be very important, he was still shocked when he heard it with his own ears.

Mekatok did not continue speaking, but looked at him and waited for him to slowly digest the weight of the sentence.

Lucas came back from his shock and a dense energy fluctuation emerged from his body, a reaction similar to cold sweating.

After calming down, he asked in a deep voice: "General, that is the head of the rebels, the culprit of subverting civilization."

"Yes, that was his crime, but at the same time, he was also the key to stopping the civil war. If he was rescued and the rebels' loyalty to the royal power had returned to the temple, then there would naturally be no civil war." Mekatok explained.

After thinking for a moment, Lucas asked a sharp question: "If Caesar Seratis is rescued, then who will sit on the throne of the Holy Tribe? Will the general help Caesar Seratis to ascend the throne again?"

Mekatok actually didn't think it through, but he had a rule in his heart, saying: "I am loyal to the Holy Church, and the royal power recognized by the Holy Temple is the orthodox.

"Caesar Serathis is a prisoner of sin. Even if he is rescued, he will be judged by the temple.

“As for what will happen in the future, it is not what I need to care about now.

"The most important thing now is to rescue Caesar Serathis and use his identity to recruit the rebels.

"As long as the rebels surrender, the combat crisis of Andromeda α1024 will naturally be resolved. At that time, the 300,000 noble fleets will enter the Andromeda α001 battlefield, and we will have the final victory of the war in our hands."

Lucas took a deep breath and said, "General, although it is a good reason to stop the civil war, if it is just to stop the civil war, then the general doesn't need to call me alone to talk.

"The Pope will not object to rescue Caesar Serathis and will go through a normal military mission.

"And, the general also said that I may never get rid of this secret mission, whether it is successful or failed, which further shows that the relationship is complicated."

After hearing this, Mekatok was silent for a while before shook his head and laughing: "Sure enough, you are indeed suitable to be a general than I imagined. The Ghost Fleet is not enough to display your talents.

"Since you see that there is something wrong with it, I'll tell you all."

As he said that, he sent out the distress signal from Caesar Serathis to Lucas.

Lucas was even more shocked after watching it.

Because Caesar Serathis's decision was to overthrow the aristocratic system and establish a new civilization system.

This is equivalent to pushing the current ruling class of the Palesey civilization into the river and subverting the entire civilization.

However, if Caesar Serathis really succeeds, then the Palese civilization will enter a new era.

It is no longer the aristocratic class that ruled civilization and infinitely oppressed the lower-class ethnic groups.

By that time, the poor people like him who had certain talents in the lower class could also get the rewards they deserve through hard work.

Unlike him, the noble who competed with him was obviously inferior to him in everything, but he almost squeezed out his position as the leader of the Ghost Fleet.

At this moment, Lucas finally understood why Mekatok chose him.

Because they are from the lower class, they can agree with Caesar Serathis' current ruling position, overthrow the aristocratic system, and establish a new civilization system.

However, no one knows what the consequences will happen if this happens.

No one knows whether it is Nirvana rebirth, or whether civilization is divided or warlord separatist.

The more Lucas thought about it, the more scared he felt. This matter was far more complicated and dangerous than he thought at the beginning.

Moreover, this danger does not come from the battlefield, but from the royal power.

After thinking for a long time, Lucas asked, "General, so you have made a decision to overthrow the aristocratic system and overthrow the current royal power?"

"I said at the beginning that I am loyal to the Church. If His Majesty is willing to abolish the aristocratic system, open up a new era of civilization, and recruit rebels, it is the same. If Caesar Serathis is not recognized by the Temple of the Church, then he will still be judged." Mekatok replied.

Lucas knew what Mekatok meant.

If Saint Reus Serathis was willing to overthrow the aristocratic system and establish a new era of civilization, it would indeed be possible to achieve its goal.

However, the aristocratic system of the Palesey civilization has been doomed, and the royal rule and the aristocratic class are one.

St. Reus Serathis sat in that position and could not abolish the system that stabilized his royal power.

If the new era civilization system proposed by Caesar Seratis was supported by many lower-level ethnic groups, it would indeed force Saint Reus Seratis to make some concessions, but it would be almost impossible to make Saint Reus Seratis completely compromised.

The undercurrents in this matter are much more turbulent than those on the surface.

After a long silence, Lucas asked, "Have you really thought about it?"

"Yes." Mekatok answered yes.

"Okay. If you keep thinking about such a complicated situation, there will be no result. Since the general has decided, I am willing to obey the general's orders." Lucas threw away the complicated thoughts in his mind and decided to follow Mekatok's orders.

"Okay, this is the trajectory of the ship that imprisoned Caesar Serathis, find him and bring him back."

Mekatok uses the word "belt" instead of "rescue", and there are subtle differences.

"yes!"

Lucas took the order and went to carry out the mission.

...

Six hours later.

The Lucas Ghost Fleet sent a distress signal along Caesar Seratis, found the destroyer, successfully rescued Caesar Seratis, and began to return, and at the same time sent a return message to Mekatok.

at the same time.

On the Shenzhou.

Zhao Anya whispered in Fang Yuan's ear: "The fish bites the hook."

"Okay, where is the fish going, let the battlefield move forward." Fang Yuan said.

Immediately afterwards.
