After the banquet, Soshyan walked along the famous Gold and Silver Avenue to a huge opera house. It is said that this opera house was personally designed by the imperial prime minister Malcador. It is a reproduction of an ancient city that has sunk to the bottom of the sea in Terra's ancient times. But no one remembered the name of the city. In the end, Macado personally nominated the name of the opera house-Atlantis.
From a distance, the entire Atlantis Opera House is exquisitely carved from blue and pine green stones, like a coral reef rising from the rocky ground. After entering, it seems to be entering a maze, but no matter where the audience stands, , all have a perfect view of the stage.
Rugged stone terraced seats cascade like islands, bathed in starlight, where the upper class can enjoy a wonderful artistic experience, enjoying the repertoire and drama performed in front of them.
Even from the auditorium, one can see the navigational beacon beyond the magnificent theater.
It is made of blue alloy, and dim light flickers faintly on the top of the lighthouse. Don't underestimate this device. This is a very rare subspace guidance device in the empire. Although its power is not even one ten millionth of that of the Star Torch, it is It is enough to guide the subspace route of the entire Sol Sector to Jupiter. What is even more tragic is that no one knows how to build such a facility after the Great Heresy.
The Atlantis Theater was very busy today. It had not received such a large audience in a long time. Every wall and every step was occupied.
Soshyan is not too interested in these opera rituals and musicals. In fact, he is more curious about why Sillu Clemente came to the solar system. This female leader of the Clermont merchant family can also be considered. An acquaintance, she assisted Veronica in many things during the Maelstrom Expedition, and was one of the few people who could reach the Soshyan bridge directly without notification.
Her alertness, command and cunning left a deep impression on Soshyan, and she was also very funny in speaking. Occasionally, she could bring some unexpected gains to Soshyan. Of course, he would not do it unless Veronica was around. It would be too much to talk to the other person, after all.
Soon, Sillu Clemente was summoned to Soshiyan's separate box.
"Good afternoon, Supreme Lord Commander Soshyan~"
When she walked in, Sillu Clemente, who had her silver hair tied back, rolled up her skirt in a very ladylike manner, with her left foot in front, bending her knees and nodding. The low-cut long skirt she wore was made of ice blue and white. Weaved with fine colored fabric, a large area of snow-white skin and a small half of the towering snow peaks are exposed on the chest. However, the curve shrinks sharply from the waist, and quickly expands to the crotch. It has a pear-shaped figure that makes people imagine, and the skirt has long sides. The long opening exposed some fair skin at the top of her thighs when she slightly bent her knees, which made people imagine. In addition, her slender legs were wrapped in light blue translucent pearl silk garters, and the pair of ice-like textures The crystal high heels reveal a fiery temptation in the cold.
When she bent down and lowered her head, the white rabbit on her chest swayed playfully between her movements, swaying, almost breaking free from the tight collar.
When this beauty who looked like she was carved out of ice crystals raised her head, her charming face was smiling, and paired with the snowflake-like mechanical prosthetic eye in her left eye, she looked like a goddess in the ice.
"We are all acquaintances, so there is no need for so many etiquettes."
As he spoke, Soshyan waved his hand to the empty chair aside.
"Ah, don't stand, sit down."
Sillu Clement blinked. The past few years of expeditions did not seem to have made her any older. She was almost the same as when Soshyan saw her.
"Isn't this supposed to be Mrs. Veronica's seat?"
"Ahem, she. She has returned to the monastery fortress."
Sillu should have learned about the special relationship between Veronica and Soshyan during her long-term relationship with Veronica. Veronica also said this, but she didn't care about it very much. It also saves Soshyan from making a fuss.
It seems that Veronica quite trusts this person.
"Then thank you, Your Majesty the Supreme Lord Commander."
"Ha, there is no expeditionary force anymore, so you don't have to call me that."
The other party came to the chair, smoothed the hem of her back skirt with her hands, and the tight fabric outlined a full and round outline. Then she gently sat on the edge of the chair. The round shape also slightly expanded to both sides due to the slight squeeze, letting the curve Becoming more exaggerated, the whole process is also very elegant and pleasing to the eye——
Of course, Soshyan would not deliberately look at it. He just wanted to talk to the other party, but as soon as the other party sat down, a refreshing and slightly cold aroma penetrated into Soshyan's nose, making his nose itchy. , as if a strand of hair was teasing the tip of his nose, and then Xilu chuckled:
"Okay, Your Excellency, Soshyan Chapter Commander."
"Why did you come here?"
"Because we are Rogue Traders. Isn't it common for Rogue Traders to come to Terra? This is one of the largest commodity distribution centers in the empire."
"It turns out it's for trade, then your family"
Sillu Clemente used her fingers to push a strand of hair behind her ears, and then said softly:
"My younger brother has grown up. It's time to let him take care of his own affairs. If I keep taking care of him, not only will the uncles and uncles not be happy, I'm afraid he and I will not even be able to be siblings in the end. This is the nature of power. It is difficult. Being shared.”
When she said this, Soshyan understood in his heart that before he left, he met the boy named Yul Clement once, but at that time he was no longer a boy, but an adult close to 18 years old. , so he nodded.
"You are such a good sister. At least in your heart, family affection is more important than power."
"This visit is more about relaxing than trading. The last time I came to Terra was twelve years ago."
"Are you going to Terra too?"
Soshyan thought for a moment and said:
"Thank you for your support and help during the expedition. If you need any help, please feel free to ask."
Sylvie Clement blinked, then turned over with a smile, leaning towards Soshyan, and at the same time put her left leg on her right leg, showing off her perfect leg curves and seductive figure. The lace stockings and the skin slightly tightened by the suspenders are as alluring as ivory treasures under the light.
"Then, Chapter Commander, if you don't mind, can I go with you?"
At this time, an ancient war story is being performed on the stage. It tells the story of a king who divided the country among his three daughters and son-in-law, but only gave the eldest daughter and the second daughter. However, honesty, frankness, and kindness would not please the father. The younger daughter was deported abroad. Unexpectedly, the two older daughters abused their father. The younger daughter learned of the situation and launched an army to attack the two sisters. Unfortunately, she failed and was captured and committed suicide in hatred. The king also died of grief and madness.
The story is part of a very traditional Imperial repertoire that seems both repulsive and self-flagellating.
In the last high-spirited melody of the music, Sillu got a little closer to Soshyan and asked softly:
"Is it okay? Chapter Commander Soshyan."
From this distance, Soshiyang could feel the heat of the other person's breath on his skin. He subconsciously moved his buttocks and answered vaguely:
"Uh-huh, of course."
"That's great~ By the way, why didn't Sister Velez come?"
"She doesn't like this kind of situation. Why do you mention her so suddenly?"
"Because Mrs. Veronica seems to have some objections to her."
"It's nothing, there's nothing to do between them."
Sillu Clement took out a small crystal fan, opened it, covered her face and chuckled:
"Then are you going to bother Chapter Leader?"
After the performance, Soshyan bid farewell to Jupiter and prepared to go to Mars, the last stop on Terra. However, at this time, the messenger from Terra arrived at Jupiter and announced an order that surprised everyone——
The Mantis Warriors must stay on Jupiter, they are not allowed to go to Terra!
