Chapter 72 Sincerity
Ning Fei only rested on the plane for a while, then paced left and right with the bottle of phase change metal, and then put on the battle armor again.
"Yoshimoto, open the hatch."
"Huh? What are you doing? Are there enemies? ”
Although Yoshimoto didn't understand what Ning Fei meant, he still subconsciously opened the hatch.
"It's a little stuffy, open the door and blow the wind", as the hatch opened, the armor flew out of the plane, accelerated towards the rear, quickly broke through the sound barrier, and disappeared into the sky.
"What did he do?" Gibbon asked with a puzzled expression, and Caitlin was still sitting in her seat, closing her eyes and recuperating.
"He went to the sea to fish for something, in a way, he is a 'money junkie', and the value of those metals is much higher than gold."
"What?!"
"Nothing."
"No, you just mentioned gold, and I think we should turn around and go back."
……
The Knicks return to the Hellfire base.
After landing, the armor was removed, and the Knicks walked directly into the base research institute with the dead silver.
The Base Research Institute is still busy as usual, but there are a lot of new faces here, and Felix is here, he cares more about the progress of science and technology than Odole, and in Felix's philosophy, he cares more about the power of cutting-edge weapons than the size of the army and the number of military bases.
"General, I've got it", Nicks handed it over with both hands, looking respectful.
Felix didn't immediately pick up the bottle, but held up Nix's arm and looked at the burns on her body with concern. Since Felix became the new leader of Hellfire, he could clearly feel the change in the attitude of the people around him, including the Knicks.
"Nix, you don't have to."
"What? I do not quite understand. ”
But then Nix came back to his senses and understood that Felix was talking about his attitude towards him, a deference to the supreme ruler of Hellfire, and once respectful, it would inevitably seem distant.
"This is not the case, and the leader of the Hellfire Legion needs his majesty, I think it's necessary."
"You're my sister, and you'll never have to follow this kind of cold respect, it's the thing I didn't like about my father the most, and I didn't expect it to happen to me."
Nicks nodded, "I'll do what you ask, my brother." ”
Felix's eyes flashed with a hint of deep loss, and he reached out to take the bottle of dead silver metal.
"Sweet", Felix called out a man's name.
"General."
This is a young man, dressed in a researcher's uniform, who is Dr. Eugene's successor.
Felix threw the priceless bottle in his hand to the young researcher named Sweet, who knew how to do it.
"This is Captain Knicks, my sister."
Swyd's head grew.
"This is Sweet Quake, and the Veracruz Base Institute is in charge of him and his new team", Felix gave a brief introduction to both sides.
The Knicks looked at the researcher, who was only about thirty years old, and most of the others were not very old, and the number of old researchers who remained here was not much.
"Very young team."
"I like young people, they are confident in how the world is changing."
The exodus of Dr. Eugene from the Base Research Institute of Veracruz has to be said to be a major loss to Hellfire, but it will not change the direction in which Hellfire is heading. The technology and wisdom of Dr. Eugene remained intact, and the resources of Hellfire supported the formation of a research team more suitable for the tastes of the new boss, so that the place was completely renewed, and the thinking and passion of these young people filled Felix's ambition like never before.
"General", an officer from Hellfire came to report to Felix.
"There are only three days left until the agreed time for the test flight of the space carrier, how are they doing?" , Felix asked the officer.
"The first phase of the project is in the final stage, and in order not to delay the time, we and the engineers on the alliance side are working day and night, and overall, there are no major problems. In addition, Congressman Fox sent a message that according to the Rio Agreement's agreement on joint military operations, the mothership's engine is ignited, and you are required to sign the order execution document. ”
The officer handed Felix a prepared tablet, the protocol was electronic, digitally encrypted, and could not be forged and tampered with.
Felix signed the letter, and after the events in Rio, the cooperation between the two sides has gone smoothly so far, and he is more eager to see the day when the mothership will rise into the sky than those guys in the Union Council.
"Tell Fox that I can't make it to the mothership test flight ceremony on time because of the schedule, but please rest assured that the legion will not be absent at any time."
Felix glanced at the Knicks and continued, "Knicks, you go on my behalf. ”
"Me? It's a very important occasion that will give you a lot of points for your political image in the League, are you sure you want me to go? ”
Knicks were surprised, for a long time, Felix's thoughts often made her incomprehensible, Hellfire chose to cooperate with the Alliance, although thinking about it with her ass also understands that this kind of cooperation can only be in a special period, it is a temporary friendly relationship, but Felix is a new ruler, and actively maintaining this friendly relationship with the Alliance is in the interests of the overall situation, and Felix has little interest in this.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a formality, Sweet's team will assist the alliance in dealing with the technical issues and ensuring control of the space carrier on both sides, you just need to release our sincerity in front of everyone."
"What kind of sincerity?"
"In the face of a larger enemy, Hellfire and the Alliance will always be allies on the same front."
"I'll do it, my brother", Knicks nodded.
After Nix was far away, Felix walked up to the officer over there, put his head close to his ear, and said in a flat tone: "Go and carry it out, I approve the action." ”
When the officer heard this, excitement flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, General!"
......
Nicks, who left alone, was worried, and she had a gut feeling about the task that Felix had assigned to her, that this matter was definitely not that simple, and that it was certainly not just what Felix said.
For the sake of this unprecedented space carrier, the two leaders of the Hellfire Legion have arranged and used so many resources, and Odor once wanted to use it to dominate the world and gain power.
It's just that the Rio attack has changed the power of Hellfire, and Felix has become the new leader of Hellfire, unlike his father Odore, he has almost bloodied the entire Hellfire, using younger officers and technical talents, firmly grasping the power of the Legion, and making everything here more malleable.
As a result, Hellfire's strategic attitude towards the alliance became uncertain, and Felix spared no effort to help the alliance build the huge mothership, but according to the internal reports that Nix had learned, this kind of help was selfless, and it was indeed according to the agreement between the two parties to control the mothership together, in addition to regular maintenance, whether it was its take-off, landing, combat missions and other important controls, all of which required the unified authorization of Felix and the three alliance councilors.
For the Alliance, this is a good thing, because for the control of the mothership's authority, Hellfire has only one person, and the Alliance has three people, according to the details of the agreement, when the mothership enters an emergency state, as long as more than 50% of the authorized person authorizes, it can use its partial functions, which means that the Alliance's control over the spaceship is actually more. This was a bargaining chip for Congressman Fox at the cost of the vast majority of the funds and resources provided by the coalition.
But from Nix's point of view, this is not Hellfire's usual style of acting, and Felix's so-called sincere cooperation is putting Hellfire in a dangerous situation.
