Chapter 59: Black and White

After interacting with the Leopard King for so long, I have become a little immune to all kinds of strange behaviors in his daily life, and even sometimes find his behavior quite funny, but the bar in front of me at this moment is still beyond the limits of my imagination. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Before I met the Leopard King for the first time, my grandfather and Dean Chen brought me to this bar and gave me a taste of its signature "explosion" cocktail and that plate of dark, wonderful-tasting mushrooms.

After that, my life seemed to have entered some kind of "fast lane", and in less than two months, I became a member of the Imperial Guard, the top secret force of the Empire, and had a team of my own, becoming the youngest baron-level reformer in human history...... The changes have been so drastic that I can't help myself.

Now, standing outside the door of this landmark bar for me, I have something else in mind.

Obviously, this bar, like the one in the Imperial Holy Capital, is the property of the Leopard King; Then the question arises, why does the Prince of the Empire have such an estate in this pirate capital? What kind of relationship does the empire belong to and these extralegal people? What is our role?

Countless question marks swirled around my heart, and my brain felt a burst of swelling pain, and there were so many things I couldn't understand. Looking at the people around me, a couple of newcomers look the same as me, and they are also full of confused expressions, it seems that the leopard king really needs to have an explanation.

Ten minutes later, we were back in the room below the hall, and unsurprisingly, all the furnishings in this room were the same as they had been seen when we set off, the conference table was still in its place, but the number of chairs had increased to twenty-one.

"Let's all sit down," the Leopard King said simply, taking the lead and sitting down first, and when everyone was seated, he raised his eyes to look at me first, and gave me a look.

Fortunately, I understood what he meant, so I closed my eyes slightly, adjusted my perception to the most accurate state, and then spent almost five minutes carefully scanning everything around the entire room, and then opened my eyes again and nodded to the Leopard King affirmatively.

This is a small part of my ability, I should be able to find the small eyes and ears hidden around me more carefully and accurately than most scanners, and after the scan just now, I can be absolutely sure that the room is "clean".

"Okay, I won't sell you newcomers, the Black Star is indeed a shadow buried by the empire in the Federation." The Leopard King smiled at me and spoke, "As early as eight years ago, my eldest brother, who is also your emperor, basically determined that the few star sector bosses who now form the Federation are ready to launch a rebellion. ”

The Leopard King's voice was unusually low, and he slowly recounted this secret of the empire: "This information was first transmitted back by the intelligence personnel who were deeply embedded in several major star regions, and at the beginning, only a few key figures in the emperor and the Council of Elders were in the possession, and their advice to the imperial brother was to use thunderous means to completely extinguish their attempts as soon as possible, so as to maintain the unity and authority of the empire. ”

With his narration, we were all slowly drawn into that period of dusty days, "The imperial brother has been entangled for a long time, and he was indeed about to order the dispatch of troops, but suddenly received a piece of information from the Sixth Star Zone, and in order to send this information, our most important intelligence officer in the Sixth Star Zone paid the price of his life; As soon as we received this information, the Imperial Brother summoned several elders who knew about it to a meeting with me and announced the contents of this information letter that shocked us greatly. ”

I don't know if the big guys at that time were as wide-eyed as us, but what the Leopard King said below did make us like this: "The intelligence is convinced that the 'S' spores and the core technology of transforming people, which have been monopolized by the royal family, have been broken through by some means in the Sixth Star Zone, and the mass production of fourth-order transformers has been successfully realized!" ”

Seeing the eager expression on our faces, he spoke a little faster: "Everyone knows that transforming people has always been a strategic-level existence in the Imperial Army, but the Empire has been researching transformation technology for nearly three hundred years, and this mass production problem has always been our biggest problem. Until today, the empire has been able to successfully transform the fourth-level transformers every year, and there are only about three hundred; If the Sixth Sector really achieves mass production as stated in the intelligence, it will definitely be a great threat. ”

Speaking of this, he took a sip of the drink that Elena had just brought to everyone on the table, and after signaling us to be casual, he continued: "Under such circumstances, the action that was absolutely certain has a great risk, and since the empire was established, there has been no war in the real sense; Although there were tens of thousands of reformers, most of them were scattered in various places, and if they were suddenly summoned, they would be caught by surprise and unpredictable, so the counterinsurgency operation prepared at that time was temporarily shelved, and the emperor decided to try to determine the truth of the matter before making a decision. ”

The Leopard King's voice changed again, as if he remembered some extremely important events in his life: "In this way, we have doubled the intensity of our investigation of these star regions, but after half a year, we have not been able to achieve a meaningful breakthrough, everyone is very anxious, and the emperor has even issued several secret orders to achieve a breakthrough within a time limit, and that time is really stressful......

He seemed to feel a little thirsty, picked up the cup, but after thinking about it, he put it down: "Just when we were at a loss, an opportunity suddenly appeared, and the Imperial Celestial Army came with good news - the 'Blackjack' pirate group that had been chasing for nearly twenty years was finally caught in a single operation of the Celestial Army, and none of them escaped the net. And their suppression also brought a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us to make a big article based on it! ”

When he said this, most of us understood the origin of the identity we are playing now, and the expressions on our faces seemed a little relaxed, and the Leopard King's narration continued: "Subsequently, our operation was successfully launched, led by the king himself, and Lu Lan, who was selected by the emperor, formed a team of ten people, and came to the Black Star in the name of Black Jack, on the one hand, to try to spy on how far the Sixth Star Zone has gone, and on the other hand, to participate in the Dark Transformation Cup to see if we can get some key technologies for the folk transformation of people." to help the Imperial Transhuman Research Institute achieve certain breakthroughs......"
