Chapter 20: Causes
"General Nohak, you can't embarrass me!" In one of the rooms of the Combined Fleet Academy, the dean leaned back in his chair and held a metal rod from which hundreds of three-dimensional pages were derived. On the other side of the room, a three-dimensional projection of General Nohak was sitting on a chair in the dean's office.
"I didn't embarrass you, I just asked you to lend me this kid for a while." General Nohak said with a smile. "Besides, you've already asked Creevey to take that two hundred and seventy-three, so I'm not asking too much!" Speaking of Creevey, General Nohak couldn't help but look deeply at the dean. Apparently many people already know about Creevey's taking of the 273rd.
"Creevy is because of the urgency of the war zone. General Nohak, I haven't received any news of the urgent situation on your side! The dean put down the metal rod in his hand, and it returned to its original state, looking like a very ordinary metal rod.
"I've already applied to the above for the addition of five twin space fleets, and I think I should know about it with your news." Naturally, he didn't believe the dean's words. When will the dean, who is known for being proficient in information, have no news from within the Protoss. "What's more, I just borrowed the ninety-seven for a period of time, and I will return it after a while."
"Although I heard that you applied to the Quartermaster Department for five twin space fleets, it seems that only three were approved in the end! It will be months before these three fleets reach your zone. Speaking of this, the dean couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. Besides, according to your habits, it is not easy to get back what you have borrowed. ”
"The situation on the front line is a bit treacherous now, and many war zones have found traces of large-scale troop movements of the undead. This has been uncommon in the past, even in previous battles. General Nohak whispered. Our war zone is the closest to the main force of the undead, and if there is a war, our war zone will bear the brunt, and if there is a problem in our war zone, it will affect a large area of the war zone. ”
"I know all of this, but what's the use of telling me this?" The Dean didn't seem to care about the war between the Undead and the Protoss.
"If we can attack the undead before they're ready, then we'll have a lot of initiative. If you're well prepared on the undead side, you'll probably be drinking tea on your home planet in a few months. General Nohak said with a smile as he looked at the leisurely dean.
"If you need a commander to attack, I have a lot of people here for you to choose from, and there are also a lot of excellent Protoss commanders for you to choose from this time." The dean couldn't help but lean back to make himself more comfortable.
"You know that the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, and I need not only a commander who can attack, but also a commander who can handle any emergency at any time. And now I only see a ninety-seven with you. Besides, I've watched a few of his battles, and I think he's the only one who meets my requirements right now. General Nohak said in a deep voice.
"Speaking of which, five or six generals have already contacted me and want this ninety-seven! Aren't you embarrassing me! If I promise you, I won't be able to explain to the other generals! The dean looked embarrassed, and took out a few silver metal rods from a box next to him and threw them on the table in front of him. Then several panels appeared next to the metal rods, and information about several generals appeared on them.
"Now it's not a question of money or not, it's a question of whether the Protoss can finally exist in this universe. Did you know? General Nohak couldn't help but be a little annoyed when he saw the dean's appearance. By this time, he was still talking about money. "Although the strength of the undead clan has not yet reached the strongest, it is still enough to deal a heavy blow to us. And after the heavy damage, our recovery ability is not comparable to that of the undead, you don't understand. ”
The dean frowned slightly, then laughed. "I'm just a dean, my purpose is only for money, if you can provide enough money, I'll think about it. I don't think the undead will at least wipe out all the Protoss! "There is a reason for this, when the Protoss and the Undead were in other universes before, the Undead did not kill the defeated Protoss, which is also the root of the dean's current reliance.
"What's in it for you if the Protoss fails." General Nohak couldn't help but ask in a deep voice, he was really angry now.
"I'm a businessman, I only do business." The dean said with a smile. "At least Creevey will come up with a good price."
Hearing the dean's words, General Nohak was really angry, got up from his chair angrily, and came to the dean. "Believe it or not, I'll come to you tomorrow with a fleet to fetch people."
"General Nohak, you know, the Academy has been around for a long time." The dean said with a smile. "Then do you know why the academy has been here for so long?"
Nohak had never known about the Academy, and although he had studied here before, he really didn't know anything about the Academy. "Then you must not know the results of the previous wars of the Protoss!" Seeing General Nohak calm down, the dean couldn't help but chuckle and said. "Every few deans there is a dean who is very greedy for money, do you know why?" With that, the dean stood up, and then came to General Nohak. "In other words, one out of every two deans must be very greedy for money."
"Isn't it for the sake of training new commanders?" That was the first thought that crossed General Nohake's mind, but it didn't seem to make sense.
"Since the birth of the Protoss, the United Fleet Academy has always existed, not because of the strength of the academy, but because the original dean had the foresight to stipulate this." The dean whispered. "Aren't you surprised? Why is it that every time a war in one universe is over, the Protoss can quickly find another suitable universe? ”
When he said this, General Nohak was a little stunned, he was not one of those high-ranking personnel of the Protoss, and in disguise, he had no way to know more inside information. "The parallel universes we are exploring now are not all suitable for us to live in. And it is very difficult to find a suitable universe. You think this money will go into my pocket? I'm raising these funds for the retreat of the Protoss. These royalties also know, but the royalty is separate from us. The Royalty is responsible for fighting and developing, while the Academy is responsible for nurturing and exploring. You say, if I gave you this example, what would the generals think after that? Am I really not aware of the importance of your war zone? ”
"Okay, how much money do you need." Hearing the dean's words, General Nohak took a deep breath and said in a deep voice. "I'll pay you directly in installments."
"I need ten percent of all your earnings. All battles. The dean said in a deep voice.
General Nohak couldn't help but be taken aback, and in this way, it was equivalent to the salary of his troops would drop by more than three percent. There is no way to reduce the amount of equipment maintenance and resource expenditure, and the final reduction of 10 percent will only increase to all personnel.
"You know, you don't just get Ninety-Seven, you get Ninety-Six, who becomes his deputy. And the performance of the ninety-six is still amazing. The dean said with a smile. If you had the ability, you could have waged more wars, and now it seems that the value of a planet has risen again. As long as you get control of a planet within a year, then the bonus alone is enough for your payout. ”
General Nohak knew he had nothing to talk to the Dean about this. Either you don't want the ninety-seven and change it to someone else, or you pay this price to get the ninety-six and ninety-seven.
"I agree, but I'll give you the money in a year." Admiral Nohak really doesn't have much money now, and a lot of his money is used in exchange for the reinforcement of the fleet. The last time he fought with No. 97, he paid more than 40,000 victory points, and these victory points were all exchanged for Shenyuan, which was a huge bonus.
"There's no problem with that." The dean said with a smile. He still has some confidence in Ninety-Six and Ninety-Seven, as can be seen from their battles. However, the dean also thought about the identity of Ninety-Six and Ninety-Seven. General Nohak is very different from Creevey. "So let's talk about the last question!"
Hearing that the dean still had something to do, General Nohaq couldn't help but feel a headache.
"Ninety-six and ninety-seven are Quero, are you still willing to accept them?" The dean saw General Nohak's somewhat impatient face and said in a deep voice.
General Nohak frowned. In fact, there is another important reason for the college to conceal its identity. Some excellent Queiro have good battlefield control and ability, but because their identity is easy to be targeted by some people, they can't show their abilities. And hiding your identity will allow people to see only their strength, not their identity. But even so, there are still many generals who hesitate after hearing the identity of those people.
And now General Nohak is hesitating, this attitude cannot be changed in a day or two, or even in a few years. And General Nohak is such a Protoss with a strong principle of the supremacy of the Protoss. When everything was said and done, the dean told him the identities of Ninety-Seven and Ninety-Six, which also gave him a choice now, otherwise if he directly let Ninety-Six and Ninety-Seven pass, he might end up harming those two excellent students.
Hearing the dean's words, General Nohak really hesitated, he was thinking about it.
