Chapter 1018: Space fleet

When Lawnes stepped onto the dock, he felt the whole ground under his feet shaking. He has stayed at sea for too long, so long as the whole person is not quite used to life on land.

Just a week ago, he was still commanding the bombardment of the demon positions at Santoba Port in the Demon Realm, and now he has been hurriedly transferred back to Ailan Hill by the emperor.

Standing on the ground, he felt his feet were stepping on a ball of cotton. He is a traditional navy, accustomed to wandering on the sea.

Land is both familiar and unfamiliar to people like him. He no longer recognizes Fallen City, nor can he recognize the ferry port opposite the Fallen City where he has been wandering for more than ten years.

Ferry is his second hometown, or the place he cares most in his life. The former salt field here has disappeared, replaced by two huge nuclear power plants standing side by side.

People in this city used to worry about their food and clothing, but now the houses they live in are worth millions of gold coins.

The sea view room closest to the city of Seris, the value is not ordinary expensive! Even a small single room in the city is enough for many people to struggle for a lifetime.

Everyone in the streets and alleys was filled with confidence and smiles, which Lawnes could not have imagined eight years ago.

He couldn't believe that in his dreams, those people he cares about can have such a day, living in the sun, prosperous and happy!

All of this was bestowed by His Majesty the Emperor, and all this was brought to Dukou City by His Majesty the Emperor. Chris has fulfilled his promise, and Lawnes will remember this in his heart.

As the admiral of the empire, he resolutely used his loyalty to repay everything the emperor had done. Ferry City exists for one day, and his loyalty will not be shaken.

"General!" Next to the car that greeted him, a major helped him open the door: "We have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Let's go!" Lawnes, who had felt that there were some uncomfortable things on the land, got into the luxurious car.

At the moment the car started, he seemed to have recovered the feeling of drifting. The shock absorption system of this luxury car is very good, so that the whole car is slightly shaken, and it will present a flickering feeling.

Lawnes liked this feeling, he just fell asleep with his eyes closed. He likes to close his eyes and rest on the magnificent sea, feeling the kind of freedom that floats.

This is his persistence. He firmly believes that only in the free and unfettered wandering, will he cherish the sincere concern in his heart more and more.

In his sleep, he seemed to have returned to his fleet, sitting on his flagship, holding a binoculars, and facing the densely packed enemies.

He was not afraid, and did not back down-because he knew that his fleet was invincible and would not fail.

The warships gathered around him were dressed in iron armor, and the huge guns on the deck followed his gaze at the distant enemy.

Then ten thousand cannons blasted in unison, and countless cannonballs flew in the direction of the enemy fleet. Suddenly, huge waves were turned up on the sea, and there were burning and fractured warship wrecks everywhere, as well as oil stains on the sea.

Before Lawnes could tell whether he had won or lost, he was gently shaken and woke up: "General! General! It's here!"

Lawnes got out of the car, tidyed up his white navy uniform, and then buckled his big brimmed hat on his head in an orderly manner. Only then did he climb up the steps and walked into the very magnificent building in front of him. Inside.

This is the royal residence of Ferry City, the property of the royal family, and the center of the entire city.

"Stand at attention!" The guards on both sides held their chins up, erected their steel guns in front of them, and sang loudly. Lawnes moved forward, raising his arm in a meticulous response.

Chris was waiting for Lawnes in his temporary office, and Andrea looked a little excited, because she had just received a definite news that Chris will decide on the specific itinerary to the Moon Temple in the near future.

She can't wait to take a look at the great legacy left by her ancestors.

When Lawnes walked to the door of Chris' office, the royal butler at the door, Ruther, personally helped him open the door. This made Lawnes a little flattered, and quickly nodded slightly to express his gratitude to Luther.

As the saying goes, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate may not necessarily be the seventh-rank official in front of the emperor's gate—who would dare to treat Luther as a simple official, I am afraid that he is really ignorant.

Luther helped Lawnes bring the door to the room. Before Lawnes could speak, Chris spoke first: "When you are called back this time, there is actually something to be announced."

As he said, he took a box from his desk: "I plan to promote you to the Imperial Marshal..."

"Your Majesty..." Although Lawnes had heard some wind noises beforehand, he really heard such a shocking news from Chris's mouth, and his eyes widened flatteredly: "The minister is terrified!"

"Don't panic first." Chris smiled and walked around his desk, and handed the box in his hand to Lawnes. "This is your marshal's epaulette. Starting today, the Imperial Navy will be officially incorporated. The army is under the control of Marshal Wagron."

"This?" Lawnes was a little puzzled, what exactly did Chris have for such an arrangement.

"The Imperial Navy has since cancelled its organization, and all operations on the surface of the planet are under the command of the Imperial Army." Chris smiled and said to Lawnes: "This may be bad news for you."

"Of course, there is good news." Chris saw the pale-faced Lawnes, a little unbearable, so he didn't keep the suspense for too long, and continued: "I decided to establish the Imperial Universe Army from now on. The First Space Fleet... Commander, it is you for the time being."

"Universe..." Lawnes was a little shocked, and immediately realized that he might have a broader future at this moment.

"Yes, don't you like to keep your feet on the ground?" Chris made a joke: "Then I will let you wander as much as you like! In the vast universe, tens of millions of kilometers and hundreds of millions of kilometers of wandering!"

"Your Majesty!" Lawnes figured out all this and realized what Chris's words meant. He knelt on one knee in excitement, bowed his head and thanked him: "The minister is willing to fight the universe for your Majesty! Endless death!"

Chris stretched out his hand to support Lawnes, and solemnly exhorted: "The formation and training of my First Space Fleet will be handed over to you... I hope you... don't let me down!"

"The minister must do his best! My emperor... Long live!" Lawnes once again knelt on one knee and solemnly promised.

Happy Great Army Day!
