"Another?" Morningstar's face lost its previous friendliness after hearing this, and he frowned and grimaced, and turned to look at the person who said it. This person is not very tall and thin, but those palms like eagle claws let Morning Star know that this person is not simple.

"I don't know what this gentleman is called?" Morningstar asked.

The person who spoke stretched out a hand, waved it and said, "The old man is the lord of the Shannan Star Region of the Imperial Empire, you can call me Gagarn." ”

Shannan Star District? Morning Star tried hard to recall, and suddenly remembered that this Shannan Star Region was still very close to him. When he was assisting the Empire in counterinsurgency, Warrenfsburg under Jorah's control seemed to be in the Shannan Star District. Turning his head, he looked at Caterina behind him with a meaningful look, who nodded slightly and gave Morning Star an answer.

"Mr. Gargarn, I don't know if you said this with careful consideration. There is indeed a second way to go, which is the so-called acceptance of transformation, but do you know what it means to take this path? You should have seen those dead soldiers of the Mandate of Heaven Sect, right? Those are the modified humans, they have no feelings, they don't feel pain, they are just soldiers who are absolutely obedient. In my eyes, humans who have been transformed by the Mandate of Heaven Sect are not even as good as intelligent robots, do you think that if humans accept that kind of transformation, they can still be considered humans? Morningstar stood up straight, terrifying. The reason why he is like this is also because he has qi in his heart. Morningstar prefers to read history, whether it is official history or wild history, he is willing to understand, because Morningstar thinks these things are very interesting and can make him understand people's hearts. However, in history, the most incomprehensible thing for Morning Star is those who descend to the Lord. Historically, there have been countless power groups that have been threatened by stronger forces and divided into two factions from within, one of which is the main station faction, and the starting point of these people is more for honor and dignity. On the other hand, there are the capitulation faction, who are more likely to consider the price they have to pay as the weaker side after considering the disparity between the strength and the weakness, which is so great that it is possible to die as a result. However, in Morningstar's view, these two factions are actually the same, both of them start from their own interests, but the so-called "interests" are different. Whether it is the main battle or the main landing, there are examples of the final goal, but the proportion is not large. As the surrendering side, not only does the person have no dignity, but more often than not, he is bullied and humiliated, and wantonly tramples on his life. Maybe you can save a life in the end, but what is more important than this one life? Different people may have different opinions, but Morning Star firmly believes that life can be abandoned when necessary, as is the case with humanity today.

The Mandate of Heaven sect is different from the infighting in human history, and at best, these infighting are only a means to promote integration. However, the Mandate of Heaven Sect cannot be planned into the human camp, God knows this group

What the hell are the leaders of the weaving? As the saying goes, if you are not of my race, your heart will be different. The transformation of humanity mentioned by the Mandate of Heaven sect is absolutely unacceptable in the eyes of Morning Star as a non-violent means of exterminating humanity. But the guy in front of him, who called himself Gagan, actually put forward this idea of surrender, how could Morning Star accept it? This is quite a handing over the future of mankind to the hands of the Mandate of Heaven Sect, and letting humans be the guinea pigs of the Mandate of Heaven Sect and toys that can be wantonly destroyed.

"Lord of the Morning Star, I think you're too extreme, and you've seen that it's not just humans who have been transformed, but also insects. Although those dead soldiers were not very successful, it only showed that the transformation technology of the Heavenly Mandate Sect was not complete and mature enough, and in time, it would definitely succeed, and the giant jumping worm was the proof. You have personally fought with the jumping insects, and through your narrative, I know that this jumping insect is not as emotionless as those dead soldiers, at least he knows to be afraid, and knows that before he defeats you, he will destroy those portals, does this mean that the Mandate of Heaven Sect is more successful in the transformation of jumping insects than humans? Gagarn didn't care about Morning Star's darkening face, put his hands behind his back, and continued: "Lord Morning Star, you should know that the genes of human beings are indeed as those people say, they are not perfect, and we ourselves are improving them through various means, but the progress is slow. Moreover, if you look at yourself, aren't you the human race after the transformation of a higher civilization? Don't deny that your physical strength is beyond human strength, and the magic-like abilities you display, do you dare to say that you are still a true human being? In that case, why should we cling to the bottom line of nothingness? Why can't we open our hearts to the gift of a higher civilization? ”

Morningstar was about to laugh angrily, and this Gargarn's face was really thick. However, he used himself as an example, which really surprised Morningstar. Unexpected what? Surprised, how did this old guy, who had never seen the process of his own battle, know that he has a physical strength far beyond ordinary people. Is it just by virtue of the previous battle in the banquet hall? For this reason, Morningstar prefers to believe that there is this man's eyeliner on ItGleason.

The strength of Morning Star's flesh is indeed terrifying, and the flesh that can withstand twenty times the pressure of gravity is indeed not something that a normal human can have. However, the only people who know these exact numbers are those who have climbed the Goddess's Eye with Morningstar, and trained together. Morningstar believed that these people would not be able to reveal the news to others, and that the only people left might be the people or soldiers on ItGleason. On Itgleeson, Morningstar has shown his super strength many times, and in the eyes of those who care, these will naturally become very important information, and it is normal for someone to be collected and handed over to someone like Gargarn.

But just as Morning Star's head was divergent in his thoughts, he heard a dull cold snort, and then someone got up and said loudly.

"Gagarn, you shameless and skinless fellow, you are making a lot of nonsense here! No wonder you cure

The next Jorah will rebel against the Empire, all because of you, a timid old man! ”

The person who got up to speak was a middle-aged man with a round body, and it seemed that because of his figure, after the middle-aged man said these few words, he was already tired and out of breath. He took a handkerchief from the hand of the attendant behind him, wiped the sweat beads from his face, and continued: "You say accept the transformation? Do you still have the face to say such a thing? Is there anyone who is doing it who doesn't know what happened to those who have been transformed? Hundreds of years have passed, and the human beings who have been used as raw materials for transformation, except for the prisoners who have been sentenced to death for the most heinous crimes, are the neuropaths that have a hole in their brains and want to directly become superhuman. You say accept the transformation, why don't you go? ”

Even though Gagarn was accused by this middle-aged man, he still looked gloomy, without the slightest change, and countered: "That's naturally because our technology is not mature enough, as a nobleman, how can we be transformed by these immature technologies?" ”

"Fart NMD! What do you mean by letting ordinary people go and give you a stepping stone? ”

An angry roar came out again, but this time it was not the fat middle-aged man, but a fair-skinned man who had been sitting at the far end of the morning star, constantly trimming his nails with a dagger. And this man's exit is really a complete subversion of his fair and deep image, which is completely a powder keg.

The fair-skinned man stood up, inserted the dagger into the tabletop with force, held the table with both hands, and said with a hideous expression: "Gagarn, you bastard, Lao Tzu has long heard that you tolerated and nurtured traitors and harmed the people in your territory, and now you have brought this set here, I think you are crooked, right?" ”

Undeterred by the fair-skinned man's momentum, Gagarn slapped the table and roared, "Chekov! You watch your words! Don't talk nonsense, which eye of yours saw that I tolerated and nurtured the adulterer, and which eye of you saw that I had harmed the people? Do you have proof? ”

The fair-skinned man pulled the dagger out of the table, pointed at Gagarn and said, "I said, what can you do to me?" Q: Do I have any evidence? Count you as an old immortal with a bit of means, hide deeply, but you'd better keep hiding, if you let Lao Tzu find the evidence, I will kill you directly! ”

"Chekov! That's enough! Don't talk nonsense! Vystock's majestic voice came from the main seat, and the fair-skinned man named Chekov immediately turned his head and said to Vystock with some grievances: "Your Excellency! I! ”

"That's it! Everything has its own judgment, do not be angry. Vistock comforted: "Also, you are going to change the conference table for me, I warned you last time, if you stick your knife into my table again, you will have to pay compensation!" ”

Chekov heard the words with a bitter gourd face and replied: "Your Excellency, this, I can't afford to pay for this!" This table is made of star wood, how can I have so much money! ”

"Cut, poor." A disdainful sneer came from Gagarn's mouth, which once again ignited Chekov.

"Bastard, Lao Tzu is upright, his sleeves are clean, he never takes a penny from the people, what's wrong with not being able to afford to lose? I have a clear conscience! you

It's rich, but your dirty money is not rare! ”

"Okay, okay, don't argue, we're talking about business!" Another nobleman in fancy clothes came out to persuade him to fight.

"Shut up! You're not a good thing either! ”

……

Morning Star, who was suddenly cold, felt that his facial muscles had begun to twitch, what was the situation? The atmosphere of the meeting, which was still deep and tight just now, why did the style of painting suddenly change greatly and become a vegetable market? Turning her head to look at Katerina, she was smiling with her mouth pursed. Morningstar stepped back and walked over to Caterina and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?" How did it suddenly become like this? ”

Caterina gently shook Morningstar's hand and replied, "It's okay, always." ”

"Huh?"

Morning Star, who has lived in the Republic since he was a child, never thought that the highest level of a country could make such a scene, is this also the reason for the people's customs? But since Caterina said that it was okay, Morningstar didn't bother to get involved in it, but sat quietly on her own work and watched the show.

The chaos finally came to an end after a roar from Vistock, and although the previous release surprised Morningstar, the result was much to Morningstar's delight. Quarrel to quarrel, trouble to quarrel, after a few abuses, these people still brought the topic back to normal.

Morning Star is very happy, happy that these people in the upper echelons of the empire are far more serious than they imagined, although there are people who are on the side of Gagarn, but it is really pitiful, under the strong suppression of a large number of people, the voices of these people have almost become zero. The most surprising thing for Morning Star was that the Duke of Wellington turned out to be a part of the main battle. Although Morningstar has always felt that this guy is very problematic, and it is likely that he is the kind of person who harbors evil intentions, but he is resolute in his choice of battle or surrender, which makes people unbelievable.

After arguing with the crowd, Gagarn stretched out his tree-like hand, pointed at the morning star and said, "You little boy, the opportunity for us humans to take a big step forward has been disturbed by you!" You're going to be a sinner for mankind! ”

Morningstar shrugged his shoulders and pouted, "I'm already infamous anyway, and I don't care about being called a human sinner." But, Gargarn, why are you so inclined to surrender? In my opinion, no normal human being would have such thoughts, even if they don't want to participate in the war, at most they will just hide, but you ......" Morning Star pinched his own bar, looked at Gagarn with deep meaning, and said, "Are you also a believer in the Heavenly Mandate Sect?" ”

"Bloody mouth!"

"Enough! It's still arguing! Shut up! Vistock spoke at the right time, playing twenty boards on each side without obvious inclination, and then continued: "Vote now!" The minority obeys the majority, whether to fight or surrender, everyone decides together! ”

……

As expected, with the exception of a few who abstained, only one person agreed with Gargarn's absurd theory, and the rest of the people were

Main battle. The general direction has been determined, and all that remains is how to send troops, how to mobilize supplies, and other specific matters. Morning Star has already handed over the news to the Republic side through the ultra-long-distance communication of the Goddess's Eyes for the first time, and the news that came back from there is a thank you from Zhu Nianguo. Zhu Nianguo also expressed his gratitude to the It Gleeson troops in his reply, these soldiers trained by Bai Shi single-handedly, played a style that belongs to It Gleeson, not only strong execution, obey orders, but also not afraid of death on the battlefield, in the face of several times the enemy of their own, still dare to fight. It is precisely because of the presence of these It-Gleason soldiers that the evacuation of the people of the republic has been much smoother, in other words, it has saved countless lives.

However, there is good news and bad news, Zhu Nianguo also said in his reply that the gold farm has been completely lost, because of the huge disparity in the number of enemies and us. The Mandate of Heaven Sect did not know how to use to throw a large number of dead soldiers into the battlefield. And this group of dead soldiers is not only composed of modified humans, but also a considerable number of Psenchus. After Morning Star got the news, he felt more and more that the strength of the Heavenly Mandate Sect was really strong. Earlier, it had been speculated that the Mandate of Heaven Sect must have a larger battlefield, but now it seems that it was indeed against the Pusenchus. As for why Zhu Nianguo couldn't figure out why so many dead soldiers appeared on the gold farm, there was no need to explain that Morningstar had just experienced it not long ago.

Morningstar no longer has the right to intervene in the negotiation of specific matters, because there are too many details involved in the return of materials and the supply of energy, which need to be agreed between the officials of the Republic and the Empire. So Morningstar also got a rare break after this invasion of Kalinhold. But even when he was resting, Morning Star was still called into his office by Vistock every day, and Morning Star was involved in big and small things, which made Morning Star confused. Even when there was nothing to do, Vistock still asked Morningstar to stay by his side, and it felt as if he was teaching Morningstar how to run a country of great size.

In addition, the two sons-in-law also had a conversation about Gagarn's performance at the previous meeting. Naturally, the conversation was caused by Morning Star, for he couldn't figure out why Gagarn was acting the way he did. And Vistock's answer to Morningstar made Morningstar cry and laugh. Vistock's exact words are like this: even a madman, a fool, would not have such thoughts at this time, and since he has done so, it can only mean that he has joined the Mandate of Heaven Sect. The reason why I didn't dispose of him directly was just to get more information about the Mandate of Heaven Sect in the Empire through him. This aid to the Republic was an adventure, but it was also an opportunity, an opportunity to contain the infiltration of the Mandate of Heaven Sect within the empire.

Morningstar understood what Vistock said, and at the same time became more and more admirable for his old man. Not to mention whether or not Vistock has mastered Gagarn's information, the indescribable expression of mood at the conference table is what Morningstar needs to learn. The old fox is the old

Fox, Morning Star, this little fox still has a long way to go.

……

Another day of waiting passed, and in the evening, Vystock finally let go of the morning star. These days, Morningstar's progress is in Vestok's eyes, Vystock believes that his son-in-law is not the kind of natural leader, compared to Locke and Caterina who have received imperial education since childhood, Morningstar is still too bad, but Morningstar has the ability to learn that these two do not have, as long as Morningstar participates in anything once, he can spy on many doorways from it, as long as he gives a little guidance, Morningstar will realize many things. After these few days of getting along, Vestock thinks it's time to let Morningstar go. So as Morningstar was about to leave, Vistock said, "Boy, you don't have to use it tomorrow!" Take some time to accompany Carter, the expedition is imminent, you should spend more time with her. ”

Morning Star almost soaked his snot out and took the order.
