Chapter 179 The Light of Freedom

The Hawke Principality government held a brief press conference. The Grand Duke announced that after careful research and democratic decisions, the Hawke Principality decided to break away from the Western Continental Alliance Republic, and will submit a withdrawal agreement to the Alliance from now on, restarting the Hawke currency system. Abandon the rights and obligations that all union communities need to abide by, and the specific borders, tariffs, etc. will be agreed after negotiations. "

The whole world was in an uproar.

Countless news media reporters rushed towards the Grand Duke, but the Grand Duke was old, so he just came out to announce and then left. The host announced that Earl Onegin would be in charge of answering the questions.

The reporters are even more excited, Count Onegin!Didn't he say he was arrested by the Union Army?Cooperating with the investigation is obviously a secret arrest!When did it come back?The Principality of Hawke withdrew from the alliance because of this matter?

Count Onegin came out, wearing a gorgeous gown embroidered with gold thread, but he still had a thin face and deep-set eyes. He nodded to the reporters, still showing the familiar and graceful smile from before.

The reporters have been frantically asking: "Count Onegin, it was rumored that you were secretly detained by the alliance military a few days ago. Is there such a thing? What is it and why?"

"When was it released?"

"Is the Duke of Hawke's secession from the alliance because you were rudely detained?"

Count Onegin stretched out his arm and pressed it down to signal for everyone to be quiet: "Hello, everyone."

The venue fell silent, Earl Onegin said: "Everyone knows that I was secretly arrested by the Alliance military a while ago, and I was tortured. I think everyone is very concerned about what the Alliance military expects me to 'cooperate with the investigation'."

Earl Onegin said calmly: "The alliance military wants me to truthfully tell the exact location of the new energy source."

The reporters whispered to each other.

Earl Onegin said calmly: "Of course the reason is that the Onegin family has committed a heinous crime and monopolized new energy sources, and asked me to hand it over to the alliance military. I have been tortured for many days and hypnotized, but there is no way to get out of my mouth. I asked about the location of the new energy source, and everyone knew what happened next. A middleman handed over the video of my interrogation to my daughter, and promised that as long as my daughter married the Union Marshal, I would be acquitted."

Count Onegin nodded slightly to the reporters below: "Why am I unwilling to hand over the new energy to the Alliance military?"

"Because, I don't want to hand over something that is related to all mankind to a corrupt high-level alliance that represents the interests of a solidified class, and I don't want to hand over something that can bring huge benefits to a selfish, At the hands of a despicable and shameless military commander."

This is already the most blatant accusation of the Union Marshal. If it is said that Miss Onegin was young and impulsive, she was blinded by seeing her father being tortured.Now, as the official representative of the Principality of Hawke, the always mature and tactful Earl Onegin actually used such words to accuse a human coalition commander who has made great contributions to the fight against the Zerg on such a serious diplomatic occasion today , That is really a very serious accusation, and now that the Principality of Hawke has left the Alliance, if it is a false accusation without evidence, the Alliance can impose sanctions or even declare war on the Principality of Hawke at any time.

This is a very serious consequence. As a mature nobleman who has been active in the political and commercial arenas for a long time, Earl Onegin must have enough evidence, right?

People opened their eyes wide, waiting for Count Onegin's further explanation.

Earl Onegin said, "I have accurate evidence to prove that this Zerg war, which has ravaged the entire human race, was created by Alliance Marshal Bruce for his own selfishness."

boom!The press area was already in an uproar, and someone excitedly said, "Your Excellency, do you know how serious the accusation you are talking about is?"

Earl Onegin stretched out his hand, and a white-haired old man came out. It was Gerry, the alliance mecha master who had not been seen in public for a long time, and was just revealed to have defected to Lorshaw with his family.

The reporters who recognized him all whispered excitedly, and the venue couldn't help commotion again.

Ge Li said grimly: "I am Ge Li, and everyone must have seen the news that my family defected to Lorshaw. What I want to explain is that 15 years ago, I participated in a secret study by the Union military. The secret research is actually the secret project data that was once sealed up in the high-level alliance military, and only the alliance marshal can inherit it—Zerg research.”

He turned on the big screen: "This is the military call-up order for me to participate in the secret project, this is the non-disclosure agreement I signed at that time, and this is the project plans, project feasibility reports, and project reports at each stage that I wrote during my research. results and all project research papers.”

"Everyone has already guessed that this project is the Zerg that is still raging now. 3000 years ago, humans migrated to the blue star, and they were forced to be displaced by this Zerg. , Frozen insect eggs and insect corpses are sealed up and left for future generations to study. It is hoped that when the technology develops to a certain level, this kind of Zerg nemesis can be developed and one day be able to return home. Thousands of years have passed, Human beings have long forgotten their lost origin and settled in Blue Star, but this secret information was sealed up by the human coalition military, and then passed to the alliance military to seal it up. Please pay attention to this item, this is 6678 years The Alliance military initiated a research on this project, which was led by Rodin, the biologist at the time and the father of Skynet, and these are Rodin’s research notes, which are the reference materials I obtained from the Alliance military.”

The live broadcast of the news conference of Hawk Principality on the star network is increasing rapidly, and it has already risen to a terrifying number.

Numerous alerts have exploded on the screen: "The Principality of Hawk announced its separation from the Western Continent Alliance."

"Mecha Master Gerry accused the Zerg War of being created by senior officials of the Alliance military."

"Rodan, the father of Skynet, once studied Zerg."

"The top-secret information of the high-level alliance military has been exposed!"

Gerry talked eloquently: "The above are all top-secret information that I came into contact with during the project research. The reason why I choose to make this top-secret information public today is because I think the original intention of the human coalition back then was to preserve Give human descendants a sum of research data on this terrible enemy, so that if human beings encounter this terrible Zerg again, they can have sufficient research data and more preparations to reduce casualties. In 6678, Rodin, the father of Skynet, also held With such a responsible mentality, a very rigorous and comprehensive research on the Zerg was carried out. The final research concluded that with the technology at that time, it was still impossible to restrain this terrible swarm of bugs. The eggs and corpses of the bugs were still intact and stored in the alliance. In the military. However, after hundreds of years, no one would have thought that there would be a selfish and despicable person in the alliance. In order to consolidate the interests of the military and his personal power, he secretly formed a team of experts and artificially hatched eggs , to secretly cultivate Zerg races, research weapons to restrain them, and when his power is weakened and his status is threatened, he wants to concoct a war that threatens all mankind, so as to consolidate his position as the marshal of the alliance!"

"Unfortunately, however, the fact is that we have not found a way to restrain this Zerg. During the process of cultivating the Zerg, we noticed that Rodin, the father of Skynet, once proposed that when the number of this Zerg is below a certain amount, they will fight for females. They attack each other, and only when the number exceeds a certain amount, will they change their habits and live in groups, divide the work and cooperate with each other to form an extremely powerful insect swarm. When we did not develop a definite method, the Marshal ordered us to carry out insect swarm reproduction Research on the subject, after multiplying the swarm to about [-], the swarm really gathered! On that day, our protection was still too weak, we did not expect that the attack power and IQ of the gathered swarm were high Scary! The swarm has escaped!"

"The situation is out of control, but as long as the army and mechs are confiscated in time, it can be controlled. However, Marshal Bruce just monitored and did not take decisive measures to eliminate these insect swarms. Instead, he secretly recruited a group of experts to come Research on this kind of Zerg, this time the scope of recruitment is very large, and it is forcibly recruited. Everyone can find out the specific time and place and the recruitment of experts. Afterwards, the expert research base was destroyed by star thieves. Protesting, saying being held captive and forced to study by the military."

"This is the origin of the Zerg disaster we are facing today. Human beings have already destroyed a homeland by this Zerg, and migrated to the blue star for a long distance. , Connive escape and even raise tigers to infeste the situation today, countless people's wives and children are scattered, their families are destroyed, their property is damaged, and their personal safety is not guaranteed. This kind of troubled times is caused by today's Alliance Marshal!"

"And when the scale of the Zerg was getting bigger and bigger and the situation was completely out of control, Marshal Bruce simply imprisoned me for ten years in order to keep me completely secret! After I was rescued by Earl Onegin a few days ago, Marshal Bruce himself Knowing that the crime is about to be exposed, I simply spread the accusation that my family defected and fabricated the scandal, just to deceive the whole world!"

"I have published all the evidence, papers, and materials on the star network. I am legally responsible for the authenticity of everything I said, and I am determined to spend the rest of my life researching ways to conquer the Zerg, and atone for this."

Gerry bowed silently, then backed away.

Count Onegin stepped forward: "Master Gerry and I were locked in the underground prison of the Marshal's Mansion. Even his son always thought that his father was participating in the research of a secret project."

"Everyone, when the alliance was first established, everyone embraced building a beautiful new world. In this new world, everyone is equal, free, and democratic. Everyone can work hard to obtain a better life, and the living rights of the weak are guaranteed. Guarantee, excellent and talented people have sufficient room for struggle and development.”

"However, in today's alliance, the strata are solidified, the government is corrupt, people from poor families can hardly develop to the top, the government is corrupt, the bureaucracy is huge, and it is not functioning well. The wealth gap is huge, wealth is divided, and interest groups can harm the life and property safety of all human beings without a bottom line even for their own interests, trample on the weak for the sake of interests, dump power, and seize citizens' personal property at will. My lord, is this the alliance that humans still wanted in the first place?"

"I announced my departure from the alliance, not giving up the pursuit of freedom, democracy, and peace. On the contrary, the Principality of Hawke will form a new alliance of free bodies in the future. We will share new energy in the new alliance. We will We will build a more democratic and open alliance regime. We will rebuild a brand new alliance, an open and compatible, free and equal, common prosperity and prosperity. All countries are welcome to negotiate with the Principality of Hawke. We hope to rebuild a new alliance with you. A new, stronger, more equal, freer union."

A reporter raised his hand: "Your Excellency, we all know that the Zergs are still rampant now. After the Principality of Hawke left, it still faces the threat of the Zergs. Has the Principality of Hawke thought about how to ensure the safety of the people of the Principality of Hawke?"

Earl Onegin said politely: "The safety of the people of Hawke will only be stronger than before. Let me introduce to you the new Alliance Commander of our Hawke: General Frostcrow. I believe everyone remembers this The heroic appearance of the general driving the Frostwalker to land on the snowy field in the icy and snowy fields, he commanded the 30nd and [-]rd coalition armies, ten fleets and [-] officers and soldiers to serve the Principality of Hawke."

"Your Excellency Earl! Is the Principality of Hawke not afraid of economic sanctions and armed attacks from the countries of the Western Continental Alliance?"

Earl Onegin said: "The Principality of Hawke also has sufficient capabilities to impose economic sanctions and armed attacks on countries that violate the economic and personal safety of our people, and—" he looked at the camera meaningfully: "About technology, talent And blockades and sanctions on new energy.”

He smiled very comfortably: "Please don't forget that the Principality of Hawk has obtained the most technology patents in the entire alliance. We can terminate patent authorization and related project cooperation at any time, we can withdraw relevant experts at any time, and we can also prohibit Certain energy sources enter a certain market, of course, win-win cooperation has always been the attitude of the Duke of Hawke, and openness and compatibility have always been our country's diplomatic principles."

"What if the empire launches a military strike against you?"

Earl Onegin smiled: "I just received a congratulatory message from the empire. The empire will send an ambassador to discuss the establishment of diplomatic relations with us in the near future. We look forward to more and freer cooperation in the technology, talents and energy of the Principality of Hawke. .”

"Your Excellency! Will the relationship between the Principality of Hawke and the former alliance be hostile?"

Earl Onegin still smiled with cunning diplomatic rhetoric: "There are no permanent enemies, only eternal cooperation. As long as the cooperation is beneficial to the Principality of Hawke and the people of the New Liberty Alliance, the Principality of Hawke will support it. We will unhesitatingly reject and resist anything that is harmful to the interests of the people of our country. We will announce the relevant political concept of the new liberal alliance after the press conference, but the specific establishment requires representatives from various countries to sit down. Come down to talk, we look forward to the development of the new era, and we also look forward to your joining."

"Finally, let's celebrate the founding of the New Liberty Alliance with a grand firework show - please watch the big screen."

An asteroid appeared on the big screen. When the camera zoomed in, people could see a huge transparent protective cover above which was filled with dense swarms of insects. Inside the other protective cover were densely packed white insect eggs with larvae Just hatched, there is a machine feeding food to the newborn larva next to it-this is actually a large Zerg breeding base!

boom!Seeing that the Zerg, who are usually vicious and do not know how much shadow they have caused to human beings, is now being carefully raised in an insulated room with a fully automatic feeding system and a perfect breeding environment, the press conference was in an uproar!

"As you can see, it was the base that we planted locators and tracked on some of the Zerg after the Dukedom of Hawke was attacked by insect plagues last time, and then discovered this breeding base beyond the imagination of all human beings - the Third Legion We have just taken measures to arrest all the staff and researchers of this base, and we will further interrogate the personnel, but the current preliminary judgment is that the person in charge of guarding the base is Major General Zhong Cheng of the First Army."

The big screen zoomed in on a group of military personnel who were being escorted to the spaceship with their hands raised. A middle-aged man in the uniform of a major general gave a close-up shot.

The reporters were sensational, frantically pressing their cameras to take pictures.

Earl Onegin smiled politely: "Let the fireworks destroyed by the evil Zerg base celebrate the establishment of our New Liberty Alliance!"

On the big screen, a glare so intense that it burned the retina lit up, and several points on the entire surface of the asteroid exploded at the same time, rising into a gorgeous firework.

"Welcome to the New Liberty League."
