Chapter 12 There is no fear
Shorten didn't say much, handing over the image of Affran that appeared on the e-book.
Xilin was stunned on the spot after seeing it.
If he hadn't known that his appearance was formed by changing gene expression, Xilin would have suspected that the person on the screen was his own Lao Tzu!
What a coincidence!
After briefly explaining the situation of Affran and the transaction, Shoton pointed to the chair in the corner of the conference room: "Sillin, you will sit here when we discuss later." ”
"Okay." Xilin guessed some things, and being able to make himself join the sixth team as the main force so easily shows that he is quite useful, at least this face is very important to the sixth team.
Later, the video conference begins.
On the screen, thirty-seven-year-old Affran had a kind smile on his face, but his every move revealed a kind of courage that did not violate the harmony, he was originally ready to make a quick decision, refuse the trade of the sixth team and choose the navigator's side, but when he saw Xilin sitting in the corner, the original words were not spoken.
Affran and Shotton are both shrewd people, and they can roughly understand each other's thoughts at a glance. In that moment, Affran thought a lot.
After a brief pause, Affran chuckled softly, "I'll think about the deal again, but I think we should talk about it, do you say, Captain Shortton?" ”
"Of course, gladly."
Waving his hand for everyone else to go out, Shorten was the only one in the room.
Cillin, who had been pulled out of the conference room by Dias, lay down on a chair in the lounge, closed his eyes, and suppressed the surprise in his heart. He guessed a few things that might happen next, but either way, Cillin was looking forward to it, and this was his first mission out of brown earth.
Shorten is in a good mood right now, very good. Being able to be the captain of the Sixth Squadron is not only strength, Shoton sees the problem more far-reaching than others, and letting Afflan see Sirin is to confirm the guess in his heart.
Two hours later, Shoton called Sillin over for a secret conversation.
"Pretending to be his son?!" Cillin looked at the mission plan that Shotton had put together.
"Yes, although Affran didn't explain why, I suspect that it will be very important for Affran to compete for the position of heir to the House of Dawonse. What do you think? Tell us what you think. ”
After quickly browsing Afflan's heart, Cillin said: "Although the outside world says that Affran has no heirs, I think he does. It's just that for the safety of his descendants, he won't let his descendants be exposed until he gets the position of heir, which is too dangerous. And his purpose is for me to cover for his real descendants and attract the firepower of some people with intentions, so that Ephran can free up more energy to fight for the heir position. Of course, this is just my guess. ”
"It's good, it's nice to be able to think of this through these one-sided materials. But that's only part of the mission that Affran has proposed, and there's another part he'll have to wait until he meets you. What I'm asking now is, Sillin, do you want to take on this task? ”
"Why not?"
"There is a certain danger to this task. The members of the Liberty have their own right to choose. We are not an army, and we do not need to obey the orders of our superiors unconditionally. You can refuse. ”
"Why refuse?" Cillin looked at the amount on the plan and was satisfied. In general, the danger of a task is directly proportional to the amount of income.
Shoton looked Cillin up and down, "I don't see that you're quite a money fan." ”
"It's the nature of hunters, isn't it?" Hunters are not adventurers, hunters are the kind of people who run on the edge of life and death for financial interests.
"That's right, this is the Hunter." Shorten smiled, "You and I will go to see Affran in two days, and as for the price, we can still fight for more." Take advantage of these two days to prepare. ”
There were some things that Shorten didn't say, but Cillin knew that, regardless of the danger of the mission, if Cillin accepted the mission, the deal negotiated between Team Six and Efflan would most likely be completed. And through this incident, Xilin can also be recognized by several vice captains of the sixth team, which will be of great benefit to Xilin's future development in the sixth team.
The competition between the four major hunter groups is becoming more and more fierce, although there is no large-scale head-on conflict, but the dark tide is surging, therefore, the main team of the vanguard has begun to take measures, and the achievements made by each detachment have an important impact on the people of the detachment, if the communication between the sixth team and the Dauans family can be affected through the line of Affran, it will undoubtedly greatly promote the development of the sixth team.
The importance of the galaxy's great families to the Hunters cannot be ignored, and the reason why these families have been able to stand in the dust of history is mainly due to their channels and networks. The relationship between the army and the hunters is very delicate, although they are not on the absolute opposite side, but the relationship is really not harmonious, if possible, the army will not allow the existence of the hunters, but the reality is much more complicated. Therefore, even if it cannot be suppressed openly, many times the army will secretly hinder the mission of the Hunter Regiment and hinder their development.
Not many people in the main fleet system of the four hunter groups dare to mess with it, but the sub-fleet is different. The army, the political institutions of each sector, and those small hunter groups, etc., they will scratch their claws on the detachment whenever they have the opportunity, because the existence of the detachment is to compete with them for money and reputation. Of course, with the mediation of the big families of galaxies, the development of the detachment would be much easier.
Therefore, the sixth team finally saw the opportunity of Affran, how could they be willing to give it up, and in the case of competing with another hunter group's fleet, they had to fight for it even more. Furthermore, if with the help of Xilin, Eflan can successfully ascend to the position, the benefits of the six teams in the future are also unlimited, and everyone knows this. Therefore, several important people in the sixth team who know about it have high hopes for Xilin.
As for what Shorten said about getting Cillin ready, it was to let Sillin have the rest of the day to understand the information needed for the mission.
In terms of experience, Xilin is definitely not as good as those old hunters, and because of his background, Xilin's understanding of the latest information is also very one-sided, which is a big drawback for hunters who run in the stars. For this reason, Shorten deliberately selected some materials for Xilin to see.
After arranging for a single room for Xilin, Shoton called another meeting of the six vice-captains to deal with the confidentiality work related to Xilin. However, when Hutton came over after the meeting to bring food to Cillin, he found that the person who should have hurried to grasp the relevant information was tilting his head and sleeping there, and the one who slept was called a fragrant.
The electronic notebook recording the information was left aside, and several computer screens around it were flashing rapidly, and it was impossible to see what was being put on.
Dias on the side opened his mouth, but he swallowed the words that he was about to speak, and carefully looked at Shoton, whose face changed next to him, and shouted in his heart: Xilin, you are fighting for breath! How can you fall asleep at such a critical moment?!
Taking a deep breath, Shotton put down the food tray in his hand, turned and walked out, and Dias followed Shotton with a bitter face.
For two days, Xilin slept without even eating, and during this time, the people of the sixth team were aware of an atmosphere of freezing to death, from the captain Shoton to the six vice-captains, everyone was surrounded by a "danger, do not approach" atmosphere.
If it weren't for Shotton blocking it, several vice-captains would probably wake up Sillin and force him to read the information. A hunter who doesn't know that he has information is not a good hunter.
"You say, how can that kid sleep so peacefully?" Shotton lay in his chair, his fingers tapping regularly on the tabletop.
Dias, who was sitting opposite, scratched the curly hair on his head, "Ahem, how can I say it, although this kid's performance makes people want to beat him, but ......" Dias pondered the words, "I always feel that kid has no fear." ”
