vs 71 Unexpected Listeners
"Ah...... Hahaha......"
A terminal is placed in the middle of the table. Unlike its counterparts, the www.biquge.info is so small and delicate that it can even fit in one hand. But don't look at it so small, it's very functional in all aspects. It's even more powerful than its larger, less powerful counterparts.
A great conversation is playing on the terminal. And the content of the conversation made her laugh non-stop.
"These people from the Evening Star family...... It's really interesting......"
"Your Highness, what are they...... What the hell do you want to do? Also, what is the origin of this Lu Wu? The commander of the local army?" the entourage was slightly puzzled. "Didn't it mean that the local army of the Banshee Gate had been dealt a major blow, all the floating fortresses had been destroyed, the legions had been wiped out, and even the Doge himself had died at the hands of the Assassins?"
"Well, let me take a look, this Lu Wu seems to be a great person. Quite interesting people. Her hand manipulation on the terminal a few times, and immediately called up a series of materials. After all, the city of Gasha is an important stronghold and support point on the front line, and the relevant intelligence work is still in place. There is no such thing as an important person who is unknown to everyone.
"You don't have the responsibility of a soldier at all! Is this what a soldier should say?" a conversation sounded on the loudspeaker at the terminal.
"Anyway, I'm just a half-tone soldier, that's a fact, and I can't help it. I really don't have the responsibility of a soldier or anything!"
She burst out laughing again...... It's funny, it's so funny. I didn't expect to see such a scene here. It makes people laugh so much that their stomachs hurt. These people from the Evening Star family are really unlucky. In fact, they are quite right, when ordinary terminals communicate, they basically need to pass through the transfer tower. This means that no matter what kind of communication content is there, a backup will actually be left on the turret side (if you want to transfer multiple times, then each turret involved will leave a backup), but that doesn't mean that those remote communication devices can be left unmonitored! In fact, with the slightest curiosity on the part of the higher-ups (the real camp leaders), it's easy to get a handle on the content.
Now, for example, because of such a little curiosity, she has successfully become an observer and listen carefully to the conversation. Well, speaking of which, this matter can also be regarded as a small secret. I don't know the kind of dirt buns of the evening star family, and it's understandable.
But she could laugh, but her entourage couldn't.
"The Evening Star family looks like they're plotting something!" said the attendant. "They actually set up a remote communication device for secret communication here......"
"What can they plot?" the mistress disagreed. "It's nothing more than coveting the position of the governor of the Banshee Gate. Don't blame them, the moment of balance has arrived, and the Evening Star family has never been known for producing warlocks...... If you want to maintain the glory of the family for a long time, then you must find another way. It is also not incomprehensible to want the position of governor. Then again, don't look at the present as if everything is no different from the past...... By the time the balance is over, I wonder how many illustrious families will disappear into history. Not to mention that this time, the laws of the whole world will be changed......"
"Will they succeed?"
"I'm not optimistic. Of course, as long as they can rely on their own strength to defeat Kecha Goat, they will naturally be able to succeed. ”
"But this is impossible! the Evening Star family has no special roots, they don't have their own army, and they can't rely on the strength of one family to deal with Kaicha Goat. They must, and can only rely on, the strength of the regular army. In that case, even if they win in the end, it is not something they can decide whether or not the Banshee Gate belongs to them. ”
"That's right! If they have their own private army and can defeat Kecha Goat and reclaim the Banshee's Gate on their own, then things will be easy. Even consuls must be rewarded for their deeds. But since they don't, then they have to take a more complicated, difficult, and error-prone path. ”
That's right, the Evening Star family can only be said to be the lowest among the nobles. The ancestors of this family were given titles for their exploits on the battlefield. But whether he took it for granted or went shit luck is very debatable. Because from the name "Evening Star", it can be inferred that the founder is the only bright spot in an all-round failure. The simple understanding is that all the other colleagues have lost the battle, and he alone has won. So whether it was because he did make enough credit to get this honor, or because the top management had to artificially create a hero in order to boost morale after the defeat, no one can say clearly.
Moreover, their family now has no high-level warlocks who can support the existence of the family. This means that they lack the power of the top, do not get the information from above, and it is difficult to judge the general direction. Almost everyone could have foreseen the demise of this family. What's so strange about that? The moment of equilibrium is a catastrophe, not fundamentally different from earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, and the like. The only difference is that it will not cause mass casualties in the short term, and will only slowly erase the existence of some people over time. Historically, there have been many powerful and glorious families who thought they could survive the moment of balance - and then history proved them wrong.
So what follows is natural and easy to understand. The Evening Star Family's actions in the Banshee Gate are not only to win, but also to lose. They must walk an extremely dangerous and delicate tightrope, hovering between victory and defeat. It is necessary not only to establish one's own merits, but also to quietly eliminate competitors. It is necessary to get results without attracting competitors. I can also understand that it is not ordinary to achieve their goals. As long as you can't grasp it once, or let things get out of the way a little, it can lead to overturning.
As for whether it will succeed...... Of course, there are possibilities. But as long as people are in their right minds, they will not be optimistic about their future.
"That's interesting, go ahead...... That Lu Wu will go to save Aki. Haha, more than a dozen legions have been surrounded and annihilated by Kaicha Goat, can half of the legions be able to break the siege? But it seems that this person named Lu Wu seems to be very confident in himself. She tilted her head with interest. "It's funny. ”
……
"Master, why would you agree to that kind of thing?"
"Partner, you don't know how rare the floating fortress in this world is...... Only with that kind of thing can we say that we have finally become the powerhouse of this world. Even if the warlocks want to work against us, they'll have to weigh it. ”
"Is it rare?" Lu Wu didn't understand. For he already knew that before this war, the Governor of the Banshee Gate alone had more than a dozen floating fortresses - although they were all shot down by Kecha Goat. But remembering the shock he felt when he first saw the Floating Fortress, Lu Wu was still full of yearning for this kind of huge castle.
If you have the chance, you really want to check out a running floating fortress instead of investigating the crashed ruins.
"Yes, very rare for us. Under normal circumstances, we don't get it at all. The master said. "Do you remember that price? That's an astronomical price! Not to mention the permissions. A situation like this that a crashed floating fortress can still be used is a rare opportunity that must be seized. And most importantly...... The floating fortress is now ownerless. ”
"What do you mean?"
As far as I know, the Floating Fortress is never sold separately, but it must be paired with something...... If purchased from normal channels, the Floating Fortress will give away a batch of operators for free. In this way, this ownership is highly questionable...... Anyway, don't expect to be able to do whatever you want, at least you can't hide any secrets. But if it's such a floating fortress that has been completely abandoned and is now being renovated, we can use it as we please. Don't worry, partner, this deal won't be lost!"
"Anyway, we only need to save one Aki, maybe we can ......"
"No, partner, I'm afraid I can't go over alone this time. ”
"Why? Kecha Goat won't hurt me anyway, and bringing someone else with it will get in the way. ”
"Partner, so you're mistaken, remember the judgment of Ivan and Red? And this hole card, there is a high probability that it is one or more ranged attack weapons. So even if Kecha Goatt doesn't have any reason to hurt you, you have to beware of accidentally getting hurt! Besides, if you only save Aqi alone, the reputation you just gained will immediately fall to the bottom. ”
"So, I should ......"
"I suggest, call the Red Clothes and Ivan, take all the hoplites, and enough other equipment, for a regular battle...... Of course, you have to prepare enough vehicles, and if things go wrong, you must retreat immediately. As the man just said, we should save as much as we can. ”
……
A massive xenomorph struggled to reach out of the muddy water.
It's a hard thing to describe, it resembles a crustacean on Earth as a whole, or rather, a crab, but the crab's feet are as thick as the marble from the ruins of an ancient Greek temple. The upper part of its body is very obviously mechanical, as if the biological and the mechanical are combined, tangled with each other, and it is not clear whether it is a natural body tissue or an acquired mechanical part. However, at the top of its back, there is a circular platform filled with battle creatures known as the Destroyer.
The crab struggled to pull a leg out of the muddy water again, and this time it managed to stand firm. Then, its body began to slowly rise upwards, completely defying the laws of gravity, rising to a certain height and levitating in midair. A part of its body must have been spewing air backwards, as its suspended body rapidly moved in one direction.
Not only was it fast but it was also steady, and the Destroyers standing on the metal platform on its back were so numerous that there were barely a few gaps, but they didn't cause any surprises during the flight. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the woods.
After its figure disappeared completely, a bubble suddenly erupted from the muddy water. Then, a pile of what could only be counted as debris flooded up from the muddy water. If someone is careful about it, they will recognize that this is the remnant of an electromagnetic turret.
After a long time, the light in the air distorted, and a figure suddenly appeared. He stared at the destroyed electromagnetic turret below, letting out a gloating laugh.
"Those guys from Huiyue...... It looks like it's been repaired thoroughly!"
