Volume 3 The War of the Insects Chapter 231 Dilemma on all sides
People tend to use the word dilemma when describing a person who is very entangled. But now Morningstar's evaluation of himself is in a dilemma, especially after receiving the letter from Locke. It is said that Locke's letter was sent directly to ItGleeson from the battlefield of the Alliance's Agron Star Zone, but he didn't expect that Morningstar himself was not on Itgleeson, but came to Xinjing, so the messenger felt Xinjing from Itgleeson non-stop, and finally completed the task after several twists and turns. When the messenger saw Morning Star, the tears in his eyes moved Morning Star a little.
The messenger was a handsome blond man in his twenties, but now his hair was messy, his face was tired, and his big eyes, which used to look handsome, were now out of shape.
"Lord Morningstar, I am Lord Locke's personal guard, Lord Locke has specially instructed me, after you have read this letter, I will also dictate a sentence to you, oh yes, my name is Solomon." After seeing Morning Star, the messenger saw that Morning Star had not opened the letter for a long time, and reminded Morning Star with words.
Morningstar reacted when he heard this, the main reason why he didn't pay attention to the messenger Solomon in the first place was because he couldn't understand why Locke used such a way to convey a message by writing a letter. You must know that now is the era of interstellar navigation, whether it is to use ultra-long-distance communication, or to entrust a professional logistics company to ship a video file, or to come in person is not a problem, but what does this mean in black and white? Could it be that the contents of the letter are too confidential?
Morningstar unfolded Locke's letter, although he didn't know what Locke's handwriting looked like, but the faint pride between the words in the letter really had Locke's shadow. After Morningstar read through the whole article, he was shocked to find that Locke had provided him with important information. In the letter, Locke said that through the battle in the Agron Star Sector, he had a lot of information about the Manifest Destiny Sect that he did not know before, and most importantly, the Manifest Destiny Sect had infiltrated the communication system in the human camp on a large scale, and did not know what method was used to separate the part they needed from the countless chaotic information, which was dangerous, and any information that was intended to be transmitted through public means could be intercepted by the Manifest Destiny Sect. In addition to this news, Locke also made a request for help from Itgleeson. Locke has now been promoted to major general through his exploits, and although his father has helped him in some way, when Locke's letter of commission was sent to the Agron Star Sector, none of the soldiers who knew anything about Locke had a word of complaint. Although Locke's iron-blooded methods after arriving in the Agron Star Region made many people question it, especially from within the Alliance, those big families who hold the economic lifeline, but after a long time, most people found that Locke's method turned out to be the most effective means to solve the crisis in the Agron Star Zone, coupled with Locke's heroic performance in the battle, calm and wise under the battlefield, he soon had a large number of supporters of the center, so when Locke ascended to the top and shouted, the voices of support below came one after another.
In his letter, Locke stated that he
An agreement has been reached with the top of the alliance that they are willing to open a portion of the alliance's market in exchange for itGleeson's military support. The market of the alliance has always been what Morningstar wants to open, although some high-end products have appeared on the market of the alliance, but the profits that those things can bring are far from enough, and the amount of raw materials that Itgleason buys from the merchants of the alliance is huge, which makes the trade between Itgleason and the alliance still in deficit. This time, Locke promised Morningstar that if ItGleeson agreed to send troops to help, then the alliance would buy the anti-gravity power system recently developed on Itgleason. This is a big deal, don't look at Morningstar's understatement when he promised Weststock, but the cost of this kind of equipment is expensive, and the huge profits are not comparable to things like marching tents, after all, among human beings, only Itgleeson has mastered such technology, so it doesn't matter if Morningstar is sitting on the ground, or a black-hearted businessman, in short, Morningstar was moved when he heard that Locke wanted to introduce an anti-gravity power device. 【…… @! Better, newer, faster]
After Morningstar finished reading Locke's letter, the messenger named Solomon said softly, "Lord Morningstar, Lord Locke has something for me to bring to you, he says that he personally wants to ally with you. After Solomon said this, his whole person looked a little reserved, because he remembered the scene when Locke gave him his mission. Solomon questioned Locke's decision when he heard that Locke's words turned out to be such a sentence, although he was only an adjutant under Locke, but Solomon was also from a famous family, and his knowledge was definitely not shallow. To put it bluntly, Locke wants to say to Morningstar, I am alone and I have an alliance with your entire Itgleeson, and I Locke must be there if you have something, and I, Locke, need to mobilize all. Is this what allies should say? Solomon doesn't think so, and no one with a bit of sincerity would say such a thing; As long as there is a little bit of normal brain, he will not agree to such an alliance request. So Solomon raised an objection at that time, but Locke replied to Solomon with a smile, "You don't know the Morning Star, just do what I ask."
Solomon did so, so he appeared in front of Morning Star, and conveyed Locke's words to Morning Star as they were, and after everything was done, Solomon closed his eyes and waited for the scolding to fall on his head, although it was not his responsibility, but after all, he was also Locke's adjutant, and Solomon felt that as long as Morning Star did not kill himself, he could endure even some flesh and skin suffering. However, more than ten seconds passed, and Solomon did not hear any sound from Morning Star, squinting at Morning Star, only to find that Morning Star was looking at a small photocopy on the letter for a long time, and finally smiled with satisfaction, raised his head to meet Solomon's gaze, and asked, "That's what Locke said?" ”
Solomon nodded, he didn't want to and didn't dare to speak, for fear that his words would not be good, and make the notorious Lord of Itgleason angry. But everything was beyond Solomon's expectations, and the Morning Star missile did not fire
, Instead, he shook Locke's letter in his hand and said: "This guy is really welcome, I gave him a customized version of the Itgleeson Star, and promised to sell him the second type, and now this guy has caught my attention again, and he wants to ask me to borrow troops and form an alliance?" He dared to think about it. ”
And it was so, and it was, Solomon thought when he heard the words of the morning star. Fortunately, Solomon felt that he could avoid a scolding, or at least he was optimistic.
"Go back and tell Locke that I promised him!"
Solomon was still in a sad mood after hearing Morningstar's words, but the instinct of a soldier made him extremely disciplined, and whether he cooperated or not, he had to give Morningstar a military salute. But when Solomon's hand was halfway up, he suddenly realized that Morningstar had agreed to Locke's request.
Promised? Just kidding, right? Even if Locke is Tommy's son, the son of the current supreme powerhouse, what good is that? Could it be that Morning Star has a broken head? Solomon's hands were still frozen in mid-air, and his eyes looked at Morning Star in confusion, as if to determine if Morning Star was joking. Morningstar also seemed to understand Solomon's thoughts, but now he didn't have the energy to joke with this good-looking little lieutenant, so he directly arranged for his guards to lead Solomon down to rest.
After Solomon left, Flasimir, who had been standing behind the Morning Star, asked puzzledly, "Master, why did you agree to this alliance, he said that he made an alliance with you in his personal name, even if he became a powerful person in the future, how can you guarantee that he will not go back?" ”
Morningstar lovingly took Flasimir's hand and replied, "The human mind is extremely complex, and although the situation you said is very common, it does not appear in Locke. For a long time, Locke regarded Caterina as the only woman who could match him under the stars, but I was the first to take the lead, and many times in public with Caterina show affection, which must have made him regard me as a rival in love, and Locke himself has a proud personality and absolutely refuses to admit defeat easily, this time he can beg me in his personal name, which shows that he is really thoughtful, he understands me, I understand him, if I don't agree to him today, I will be a step lower on him in my vision. But if I agree to him, although it seems unfair, Kelocke's psychology must be holding back and wanting to find an opportunity to repay my favor, and it will definitely not be the kind of person you said who appeared in front of me, thank Dade. He will only choose to do better than me in order to maintain his image in front of Katarina. Therefore, not only will I promise him, but I will also make a big effort, because the more I do today, the more I will benefit in the future. ”
The point of Morningstar's remarks was not grasped by Vlasimir at all, but instead he grabbed a part of it that even Morningstar hadn't paid attention to and asked, "What do you mean, master, that he still has thoughts about Lady Caterina?" ”
"Huh?" Morningstar glanced at Vlasimir with interest, then replied with a laugh, "I suddenly found out that you have a talent for gossip, and I let you catch this slip of the tongue?" ”
Frassimi
Er lowered his head and smiled, his toes on the ground, like the look of a human girl when she was shy, and muttered back, "No, I'm just worried about the future of you and Lady Caterina, I can see that you really like Madame, so I don't want others to ruin your relationship." ”
"Don't worry, as long as I'm alive, that kid won't have a chance!" Morningstar's answer was domineering, and the blue eyes of the other three shadow guards in the room shone even brighter. Only Renaya was still full of question marks, and asked Morning Star: "Then master, if you and Locke switch positions today, what will you do after receiving the help of the other party?" ”
Morningstar really never considered such a question, but think about it, if he was in Locke's position and received help from the other party, would he return with all his strength like Locke? After thinking about it for a while, Morning Star finally gave the answer: "I, I don't care about face!" ”
Such a rogue answer caused the Shadow Guards to laugh, but the happy atmosphere quickly faded to ashes under Morningstar's depressed expression. The reason is naturally the request made by the other party when he met with Zhu Nianguo before.
The rebellion on the Golden Farm Star is becoming more and more serious, although the Republic army has an overall advantage, but on the local battlefield, it has been stubbornly resisted by the Heavenly Mandate Sect, it is not necessary to say whether there is an advantage or not, it is a blessing to be able to barely be defeated. I don't know why, Zhu Nianguo actually thought of Morning Star at this time, although he asked Morning Star to deal with the Fan family's affairs with peace of mind, but now on the right side of the front line, Zhu Nianguo hopes that Morning Star can find time to go to the Golden Battlefield Star to supervise the battle. Morning Star repeatedly rejected Zhu Nianguo's request, but the other party didn't know why he was iron-hearted, even if Morning Star stated that he would not know anything but go into battle to kill the enemy, but Zhu Nianguo just didn't believe it.
As a result, the Fan family, the Golden Battlefield, Locke's request, and Katarina's birthday ceremony all rushed together, leaving Morningstar in a dilemma. It was a coincidence that the time fell to a few days less than a month later, and even if he turned on the power of the goddess's eyes, it was impossible to run all over the Republic, the Empire and the Alliance in a short period of time. After several entanglements, Morningstar finally reluctantly chose to ask Xie Shiqi for help, and at this time, only Xie Shiqi could help him.
This is the third time that Morning Star has used the Goddess's strategy for ultra-long-distance communication since coming to Xinjing, and the Queen is very unhappy, because such a frequency of use will make the spare energy of the Goddess's Eyes consume quickly, which will disrupt the Goddess's arrangement. Quinn was also angry that Morningstar was using this foreign technology so frequently, but only talking about some problems that didn't hurt or itch, and Quinn felt that Morningstar was a bit of a loser. Only Xie Shiqi, who received Morningstar's communication request, knew that Morningstar must be in trouble this time. Xie Shiqi has a deeper understanding of Morningstar than any woman around Morningstar, after all, the two brothers did not do it for nothing for four years. When Xie Shiqi appeared in front of the communicator, he withdrew from all the irrelevant people around him, in the communication room
Only Xie Shiqi was left. And when Morning Star faced Xie Shiqi, he no longer had the calmness and calmness that he pretended to be in front of outsiders, and said with a sad face: "Old Xie, help, I really don't know what to do this time." ”
Xie Shiqi's eyes are still full of disgust, but Morning Star enjoys it very much, to be honest, Morning Star has never seen this kind of disgust from Xie Shiqi's eyes when he looks at others, this disgust is exclusive to Morning Star, just like her own woman dislikes her husband's alcohol, although she said to go away, she still can't help but take care of it. Such a metaphor may not be appropriate for Morning Star and Xie Shiqi, but it is very appropriate.
"You're starting to lose, and you still need me to help you?" The opening words are as cold as ever, and since Xie Shiqi came to ItGleason, such a situation will appear in every conversation between Morning Star and Xie Shiqi.
"Don't make a fuss, Quinn doesn't know where I'm now, you listen to her." Morningstar replied weakly.
The reason why Xie Shiqi was able to sit here was precisely because he understood that if Morning Star was not really in trouble, it would be absolutely impossible for him to talk alone, and no one wanted to find someone who always hit him greedily. Sighing lightly, Xie Shiqi asked, "Tell me, what have you experienced?" ”
Morning Star heard Xie Shiqi speak, and knew that he must be willing to help, so he hurriedly told Xie Shiqi about his current situation. Xie Shiqi listened very carefully, almost did not miss every detail that Morning Star said, and asked a few words from time to time, often making Morning Star dizzy.
"That's all there is to it?" After hearing Morning Star's words, Xie Shiqi pursed his lips nonchalantly, his eyes were still full of disgust.
As soon as Chenxing heard Xie Shiqi's words, he knew that the other party must be a way to help him solve his current situation, so he didn't care about Xie Shiqi's disgusted eyes, and said with a smile on his face: "Xie Shiqi, I knew you had a way, tell me quickly." ”
Xie Shiqi ignored Morning Star's question and asked rhetorically, "Morning Star, have you ever thought about what the difference between these four things is?" Or what does their essence have to do with it? ”
"Huh?" Morning Star shook his head, these days, his brain has been dizzy, on the one hand, he has to take care of Fan to become the partner he found, on the other hand, he has to watch that the Fan family can't let them have any drastic actions, and on the other hand, he has to worry about this Katarina, for fear that his blind guess will become a reality, and now he has encountered Zhu Nianguo's "persecution", Locke's request, where does he have the energy to analyze.
Xie Shiqi shook his head and replied, "Among these things, do you think the key person in that incident has the closest relationship with you?" Is it the one you can't give up the most? ”
"Katarina!" Morningstar blurted out.
"Hmm." Xie Shiqi nodded and continued: "Then you go to protect Katarina!" ”
"What about the others? I don't care? Morningstar hurriedly asked.
Xie Shiqi's eyes came again, and he seemed very dissatisfied with Morning Star interrupting him. Seeing this, Morning Star hurriedly closed his mouth,
Make a gesture of listening.
Xie Shiqi also has no way to take Morning Star, for his old classmate, the owner of It Gleeson, the new star that is getting brighter and brighter under the starry sky, Xie Shiqi has high hopes, but although Morning Star has enough personal charm and strength, it is still a lot worse in terms of overall planning, not to mention that it is not as good as Xie Shiqi now, even if it is better than Xie Shiqi ten years ago.
Xie Shiqi shook his head, sat up straight, put his hands on the table, and said lightly: "Today, I want to teach you a lesson, the content of the teaching is how to understand other people's words." ”
