Chapter 437: The Temple on the Apocalyptic Star
Chapter 437: The Temple on the Acalibur Star
(Chapter 1 to)
Apocalypse, the main city of Weston.
The whole city is hexagonal and divided into 12 layers. As the third-story urban area where foreign caravans focus and trade, there are thousands of large and small trading center buildings. Within this urban area, there are countless leisure and entertainment venues.
In the heart of the North District, there is a domed building, which is considered the most luxurious hotel in the city. Covering an area of hundreds of thousands of square meters, about 100 meters high, with a total of 15 floors, the interior can accommodate tens of thousands of interstellar merchants at the same time, and can provide all kinds of legal and illegal services at any time.
Of course, the hotel's special feature is that it has a secret trading place at the top, a secret gathering place for interstellar smugglers to trade special items on the planet.
On the fourteenth floor of this building, in a hexagonal room with very soundproofing effect, Yu Heng's eyes flashed with a cold light, holding a communicator in his hand, listening to the reports from the subordinates who were investigating the city.
"Your Excellency, Yu Feng Nader has not left since he entered the City Lord's Mansion in the morning. According to the report of the insider officer we arranged within the Apocalypse, he had entered the legion headquarters before entering the Lord's Mansion. Afterwards, the dark mut regiment commander seemed to have turned ugly, as if he had been reprimanded," came the voice of the lieutenant general's road spectrum from the communicator.
"Hmph, this Yu Feng is a new official, and as soon as the three fires came to the Qitian Galaxy, they had a conflict with the legion commander. It's really unbearable, even the lord's relatives shouldn't be so arrogant, such a person can't pose a threat to Lord Tutun at all," Yu Heng heard this, and a sneer appeared on his face.
He then said into the communicator: "Lu Pu, immediately send someone to ask the lieutenant general of the dark silence about the detailed circumstances at that time. In addition, let those people planted in the City Lord's Mansion try to master Yu Feng's recent itinerary on the Qitian Star, we can't rush into the Lord's Mansion to do something, we have to find a way to kill him outside, understand? ”
"Understood, General" Lu Pu immediately answered in the communicator.
Turning off the communication, a sneer appeared on Yu Heng's face.
"It's really not an ordinary waste of more than 10 million years to advance to the peak of the SSS rank, such a person still doesn't know how to surround his subordinates, if my expectations are correct, he must be angry because he can't hold his breath after seeing the decadent situation in the legion?"
"If it weren't for Lord Tutun's request to kill him without a trace, I would have killed him directly before he landed in the atmosphere, so why would I have to go to such trouble to hire a foreign killer?"
For this operation, Yu Heng accepted the order and hired six foreign killers, all of whom are currently staying in this hotel in the name of a legitimate merchant group, waiting for news at any time.
Kill Yu Feng Nad, Yu T Nad will definitely come to the Auritus in person, which Tuton expected. In the case of Utnad, he has been a lord for fifteen million years, and it is long overdue for him to train a lord heir.
The third order of the starry sky is a watershed, and Yu Teruo is always busy managing the entire race, although he is in a high position, he is not good at the promotion level. As a result, Tuton has been arranging for the death of Utnad's children in a similar accidental assassination attempt for countless years.
First, Tutun had to kill Utnad and ensure that no one would compete with him for lordship after his death. Secondly, if you have no heir, Utnad is trapped in the position of lord, and its evolution rate will definitely be greatly affected.
As one of Tuton's henchmen, Yu Heng has been involved in a number of assassination missions against Utnad's children and family members over the years. Therefore, after he found out that Leng Feng actually had a conflict with the legion commander just after he arrived at Qitian Star, and accepted a large number of beautiful female slaves in the lord's mansion, he immediately despised the target of this assassination.
On the first floor of the Legion Headquarters building in the center of Weston City, Dark Mo had just separated from Cooper with an ugly face, and when he returned to the office, Dark Silence's face remained uncertain.
His lieutenant Twist Banner was standing respectfully beside him, and as an officer of the Tuton family in the Rim Galaxy, the current situation was definitely favorable for the assassination of the new Star Lord.
"My lord, will Master Cooper agree to lend us money?" Twisting the flag and bowing and saluting.
"Hmph, that old bastard, he only borrowed 30 million gold coins from me, which is only enough to repair the hulls of thousands of warships, which is a drop in the bucket. His smuggling caravan is all our escort fleet, and this bastard is so perfunctory to me when he sees that he is leaving. Dark Mo snorted with a blue face and said.
"My lord, what ...... So what do we do? A month is simply not enough time to raise funds to repair those warships, and if the time comes, this Star Lord will pursue it, it will have a great impact on your future," said Twist Qi with a worried face on his face after hearing this. ,
"Let's take a step at a time, I still have 200 million gold coins in my hand, and the remaining 300 million have been invested in a few smugglers. In a week's time, a smuggling fleet will arrive at Aurora, and I will use the funds to repair some of the warships, and then I will ask the family for support."
"It's really disgusting that a star lord has suddenly appeared, and without his existence, this Apocalypse Star will still remain the same for millions of years. The lord is too, why do you have to arrange for his cousin to come to such a place? How can we, the generals who have a little money, get mixed up? ”
Speaking of which, he couldn't help but sigh.
"My lord, according to me, our galaxy is on the border, so it is better to find someone...... If you do, won't your troubles be gone? When he said halfway through, he put one hand across his neck and a sneer appeared on his face.
"Isn't that the same as a traitor? Twist the flag, you are my most trusted subordinate, this kind of anti-heaven words must not be said again in the future, otherwise I will never spare you" After listening to it secretly, Tie Qingdi's face immediately turned black and he roared.
"Yes, my lord"
Seeing that Dark Mo reacted like this, Twisting the flag immediately bowed his head and said yes.
It's just that he sighed again and said: "Hey, even if I want to kill him, I don't have enough money in my hands, not to mention the guards and slave troops in his hands to protect the city lord's mansion tightly." ”
"I'm the legion leader of the Apocalypse, and it's too late to protect him. If something happens to him on this ground, I'm afraid I won't be able to absolve him of responsibility. Unless...... Unless he is attacked by a foreign enemy, then even if he is responsible, I can mitigate it a lot. ”
"My lord, if someone can kill the star lord, it won't affect your future, what do you think?" Seeing the contradiction between the words before and after, he couldn't help but say tentatively.
Hearing the words of twisting the flag, he couldn't help but frown at the twisted flag with a surprised face.
"Twist the flag, what are you talking nonsense about? Have you heard from the outside world that someone is trying to assassinate the Star Lord? When he asked this, he couldn't help but have a vague hope in his heart.
He was very conflicted in his heart, and the appointment of the star lord of Yufeng Nader did make it difficult for him to gain more benefits in the rest of his tenure in this galaxy in the future.
Therefore, this star lord will not do him any good. You must know that before this star lord came, all the power of the Apocalyptic Galaxy was in the hands of him and Cooper, and even said that he secretly held the greatest power, and even Cooper had to act according to his eyes most of the time.
The reason is very simple, that is, secretly used the expenses and salaries for the maintenance of the legion, in addition to handing over the family and investing in the smuggling merchant group, he also secretly established his own family's escort fleet, that is, the mercenary fleet.
Whether it is a smuggler group or a legal interstellar merchant group, in interstellar trade, it will be more or less determined how many escort fleets to hire because of the risk factor of the trade range, but the smuggler merchant group can only hire mercenary fleets because they will smuggle contraband, and cannot get reasonable protection from the official fleet, which is the reason why a large number of private mercenary fleets are born.
The mercenary fleet formed by Dark Mo is not large, and the headquarters is also set up in the galaxy of other races, so it is difficult to find out to him even if something happens, but the huge profits can be generated endlessly, which is the direct reason why he can still keep a lot of cash on hand.
In fact, that mercenary fleet secretly hid even from his own family. If you don't leave some hole cards, it will be even more difficult to go back to compete for the position of patriarch in the future, and a strong fleet will enable Dark Mo to have enough confidence to return to the family in the future to be able to win the position of patriarch.
Seeing that he asked silently, he said with a respectful look on his face: "My lord, a few days ago, when the officers and soldiers of the legion changed into civilian clothes to have fun in the third floor of the city, I heard some smuggler groups complaining that business would definitely not be good in the future. Many of them have mentioned that if the Star Lord dies, then the business will be easier to do. ”
"According to this situation, there will definitely be someone who is plotting to assassinate the Star Lord. However, when I received the report, I didn't take it seriously because there was no hard evidence and the people in the merchant group were just complaining. Now that you've got a problem, it's natural for your subordinates to think about you. ”
"Why didn't you tell me about such a thing earlier?" A look of surprise immediately appeared on Dark Mo's face.
"Twist the flag, can you get in touch with the smugglers and see if you can find it...... Kill his men. As for the Star Lord's itinerary, it is provided by us. It's best to let him ...... him when he goes out to patrol other planets in the galaxy" When he said this, a cold look appeared on Dark Mo's face. ,
Since it is difficult for him to restore the equipment of the legion fleet in a month, and he cannot make the legion full immediately, it is better to find someone to assassinate him.
"My lord, if you find an outsider, if the news leaks, it will be extremely unfavorable to you, and now there are some candidates on Qitian Star who can easily kill the peak of the SSS level, why do you want to go far?" After seeing that Dark Mo had changed his mind, he couldn't help but say with a mysterious smile on his face after finally choosing to assassinate the star lord because of interests and life and death.
"The people on the Apocalypse? Are you the one in the temple? No, as soon as he makes a move, it is difficult not to be recognized. Twist the flag, you don't have a good idea. It is better to look for it from among the foreigners. Dark Mo immediately frowned and said.
"Your Excellency, not the one in the temple. I'm referring to a couple of star-class mercenary killers who have just arrived on this planet, and they entered with a legitimate merchant group, and they were spotted on our soldiers, but I didn't alarm them. Twisting the flag immediately shook his head.
A cold light immediately shot out of Dark Mo's eyes, and he looked at the twisted flag.
"Twist the flag, you are so bold that you already knew that there was a hired killer entering the country and did not report it, you can't use me, the commander of the legion, as an ornament?" Darkness immediately roared in anger.
Several star-level hired killers entered the country, which was already a very serious matter, and it was necessary to report it to the top brass of the Lejin military, which was already an inter-ethnic conflict.
Starry Sky Level, the starry sky powerhouse within a race tribe is also extremely rare, and only one out of ten million people can be born.
Starry Sky level killers, that is absolutely extremely taboo for all races, so when he heard the news, he was so angry.
"My lord, please calm your anger I also just learned the news, so I haven't had time to report it to you According to me, those starry sky-level killers should have been hired by someone, and their purpose is the Star Lord. Otherwise, with their level, how could they come to a galaxy like ours that has no oil and water? ”
"Even if the star lord is killed by them, you will only be ineffective in protecting at that time, and at most you will be removed from your post and investigated. But it's definitely better than being threatened by the Star Lord now, you can't fully restore the equipment and number of soldiers of the Legion within a month, the Star Lord is obviously embarrassing you, can't you see it? When he said this, he pretended to be frightened and explained to Dark Mo.
After listening silently, he bowed his head and remained silent for a long time.
Twisting the flag was secretly happy in his heart, and said in his heart: "I'm not afraid that you won't take the bait, what Lord Tuton and Lord Yu Heng want is for you to participate." ”
Thinking of this, he didn't say anything, just waited for a silent reaction.
It took a full minute for Silent to raise his head.
His eyes were blood-red, his face was bruised, and he sat on the alloy chair with his fists clenched and said in a hoarse voice: "Twist the flag, find a reliable officer, try to get close to that merchant group, and find a way to leak the Star Lord's itinerary to them at any time, and try to help as much as possible." ”
"If someone kills him, then I'll be happy. However, we also need to be careful. We must not let people know that we leaked the news, as soon as the star lord dies, you will immediately kill the officer who reported the information, so that we will be truly safe."
Twisting the flag immediately showed a respectful look on his face, bowed and said, "Yes, my lord"
"You go and arrange the manpower immediately, and remember to send the most reliable people." Dark Mo still said in a hoarse voice.
"Yes, my lord, I'll do it." Twisting the flag in agreement, he immediately turned around and walked out of the corps commander's office.
As he turned around, the corners of his mouth inadvertently showed a hint of mockery.
After twisting the flag and leaving, a contradiction appeared in Dark Mo's eyes again.
Star Killer, even if this matter was not done by his own hands, if it was known that he had participated, the entire family would be slaughtered one after another.
But at the moment, if Yu Feng Nader does not die, as soon as the one-month deadline expires, he will not be able to face Yu Feng Nader silently.
Embezzling the Legion's expenses, and continuing to eat empty wages for a thousand years, such a felony would be enough to execute him a thousand times or ten thousand times.
Therefore, although Yu Feng Nader seems to have given him a way to survive and let him restore all the warships to a normal and combatable level, if the entire legion's fleet wants to be repaired within a month, it will cost at least billions of gold coins in terms of amount, not to mention that it is too late in time.
Therefore, if the star lord of Yu Feng Nader died, although he would be dismissed and questioned, he could let all the warships of the Apocalypse Star lift off the ground before then. Command your own convoy to fight a space battle with it, and reimburse more than half of the Legion's warships, creating the illusion of a foreign invasion. ,
At that time, the fact that the enemy is fighting hard and the fleet has suffered heavy casualties will be erased even if he investigates from above.
Dismissal, investigation, or even imprisonment for a period of time is much lighter than death. The two sides chose to choose the lesser of them, and Dark Mo naturally chose to promote those killers to kill the star master.
"Well, if that Yu Feng Nader dies, not only will the officer who revealed the news die, but he won't even be able to keep the flag. Although you have been with me for tens of thousands of years, for the sake of the family, I can only say I'm sorry. ”
Muttering this, the dark silence's eyes suddenly became firm and sharp.
Since there is no other way, just wait for the situation to develop. If he dies, he will have to sacrifice the lives of his men to save his family, because only the dead will never tell the secret.
Covering an area of tens of kilometers long and wide, the temple sits on top of the massive Weston Mountains, which stretch for thousands of kilometers, and not far from the foot of the mountain below the temple's location is Weston City, the main city of Auritus.
Ninety percent of the Lejin civilians who climbed the Xiangshang were stopped on the mountainside, and they could no longer withstand the pressure of higher and higher gravity and were unable to Xiangshang, so they had to return halfway.
About half of the remaining 10 percent were unable to climb to the huge stony plain where the temple at the top of the hill was located, and eventually returned in vain.
The doppelganger took the form of the Leggin Notarod, and was now deftly tumbling from the edge of the mountain range into the edge of the huge plain.
Nanota Lod has been arranged in the City Lord's Mansion at this moment, and Leng Feng's clone naturally imitates him effortlessly, and he is not afraid that someone will doubt his identity.
Followed by the same brother who had complained about the increase in the temple's fees not long ago, the two brothers looked at Leng Feng in surprise, but did not say anything.
At this time, Leng Feng's appearance was mediocre, his height had not changed, and the robes on his body had long since changed into shabby clothes.
Interestingly, this suit is still the one that Leng Feng damaged when he was on Earth, Leng Feng was not willing to throw it away, and even kept it in the badge as a souvenir.
Now wearing this tattered black military uniform, it didn't make the two Lejin brothers feel dazzling.
However, Leng Feng caught up directly at the foot of the mountain, and instantly surpassed the two brothers who had climbed hundreds of miles away from the platform, and it seemed extremely easy, and his strength made the brothers extremely surprised and admired.
When climbing to the top of the mountain, there were only a dozen people who could climb from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain at the same time as Leng Feng or the two brothers. According to estimates, there are definitely no more than 500 people who can climb to the top of this mountain in a day.
Leng Feng's gaze swept over the boulder plain, which was hundreds of kilometers wide, and although the temple standing in the middle was dozens of kilometers long and wide, it only occupied a quarter of the artificially carved plain, so the periphery was extremely empty.
In this open space, countless Lejin people sat cross-legged on the ground, most of them were in shabby clothes, and only a few were neatly dressed. Everyone is absorbing the dark matter in the universe with their eyes closed, and at a glance, it seems that it is not clear how many people are cultivating and evolving here.
"The highest is only S-level, and the lowest is also the peak of B-level, and there are only a few dozen S-level Lejin people, it seems that the number of powerhouses produced on this Qitian Star is far less than the average number officially announced by the Lejin Clan."
After a slight glance, Leng Feng immediately identified the level of these Lejin people on the plain.
During the scanning, the thousands of Lejin temple guards guarding the edge of the platform, dressed in yellow robes, stood straight around the edge of the wide platform, and they immediately met them when they saw someone stepping up the plain.
The number of people who can climb up every day is basically fixed, and some Lejin people who have reached the peak of * or B will also be arranged by the temple to leave, as for whether to join the legion of the galaxy or enter the army above the Lejin clan, it depends on the situation.
The entire Lejin clan, each of the main stars has such a temple, which can provide more than 16,000 soldiers for the tribe every year, and a thousand planets can produce more than 10 million soldiers.
The war attrition in the fringe galaxy of the Lejin clan has to sacrifice a large number of soldiers' lives every year, so that the number of people is just enough to replenish the needs of the Lejin clan's military resources.
As for the Lejin people who have reached the peak of * level or above in the temple or above the S level, the number is relatively small, and they must be aware of becoming the target of the Doras Empire's conscription at any time.
A *-tier peak soldier can only be counted as a reserve in the Doras Empire, while an S-class soldier who can truly breathe and eat in space can become an ordinary soldier. ,
Therefore, although the entire Lejin clan has thousands of planets, it can provide the Doras Empire with a maximum of hundreds of soldiers above the S-level level or hundreds of *-level pinnacles every year.
As is currently in a chaotic civil war in the Doras Empire, conscription has been temporarily suspended. Therefore, even if the source of the army is handed over, it will be handed over to the Imperial General who controls the Assassin Pigeon River system, not to the Emperor of the Doras Imperial Capital River system.
"Report your name, hand over a silver coin in your city, and then you are eligible to enter the temple to receive guidance from the Holy Master" A temple guard stopped in front of Leng Feng with an expressionless face.
Leng Feng shook his head and said with a smile, "My name is Notarod and I live in the main city of Weston. I didn't bring any money, according to the rules of my clan, the selection of talents is free, and I can't pay this money."
"Bastard, this is the Qitian Star Temple, not a place for untouchables like you to go wild. Get out" The guard in the yellow robe suddenly became furious, and immediately raised his foot and kicked Leng Feng in the chest.
For countless years, no untouchable had dared to refuse to pay the entrance fee, so the guard was naturally furious.
The two Nakna brothers, and even the Lejin people who were meditating on the plains, all opened their eyes and looked at Leng Feng with pity when they were closer to Leng Feng.
"The fool doesn't even understand the rules, even if he takes money in the future, he won't want to be able to enter the temple" Although the sturdy Kena was a little sympathetic to Leng Feng, he could only sigh at this time that Leng Feng was really ignorant.
"Smack"
Leng Feng smiled and dodged, easily dodging the guard's kick, and his body reached the guard's side like the wind, giving the guard a loud slap.
"Ahh
The guard immediately let out a miserable scream, and his figure flew hundreds of meters away, out of the plain, and suspended in mid-air.
In an instant, the Lejin people in the distance woke up, while the Lejin people in the distance looked at Leng Feng in a daze.
"Seeking death, you dare to attack my temple guards"
After a roar, a figure wrapped in purple light instantly rushed towards the cold front.
"Well, this should be the leader of this guard. The peak of the SS class, the field of electricity is good, and it has reached the third layer. Leng Feng immediately determined the opponent's level at a glance.
