Chapter XXII: Citizens of the Empire

The red sun hung in the air, resembling both a red ball and a tomato.

In the wide garden, there is a row of neatly trimmed evergreen trees, sparsely scattered with two flower beds, planted with delicate unknown beautiful flowers and trees, all arranged with carelessness and without any disorder, as if they were their owners, meticulous.

In the middle of the garden, there are bursts of laughter, which makes people feel refreshed.

Fang Mingwei, Keno, Schneider, the big fat man leader and the bearded captain were all together, and sitting opposite them was none other than the major general of the Flower Name Hall who could really be the master of the house in the Misland Star Field.

At this moment, the major general looked very happy, and he smiled: "I have sent someone to verify your experience, and it is very rare that you can escape from the pirate pursuit and find the jump point in the meteorite group." What's more, you have even more credit, and it is really remarkable that you have discovered the new foothold of the Frank monster in this star field. ”

The bearded man and the others listened respectfully, their faces flushed, and they were very excited about it.

Although the fat leader and the bearded captain are not from the same civilized country, they both live in this vast star field, and their country is also one of the many subordinate countries of the Newman Empire, so when they hear the praise of the imperial general, they can't help but be excited.

Hua Mingtang was very satisfied with their expressions, and asked with a smile: "Your merits are great, and the empire will never be stingy with rewards for those who have merit, whatever you want, you can put forward it now." ”

The bearded man and the fat man looked at each other, and they both knew that such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was likely to be only once in a lifetime, and it would be a pity not to seize it.

However, the reward that Hua Mingtang asked them to ask for was greatly unexpected by them, so for a while, they couldn't think of what kind of request they should make in order to maximize their interests.

Seeing the hesitant expressions of the two of them, Hua Mingtang nodded slightly, and Major Lin Mi, who was standing aside, immediately said: "According to the Imperial Constitution, if there are foreigners who have made outstanding contributions to their country, they can be granted the status of imperial citizens, you two may wish to consider it." ”

The eyes of the fat leader and the bearded captain suddenly lit up, no matter how much they guessed in advance, they would never have imagined that the other party would be willing to throw such a rich reward.

For those of them who live in this large star map, the Newman Empire is undoubtedly the backbone of all nations.

As a citizen of the Empire, he has special powers in almost all of his subordinate states.

Although their roots are still in their own country, if they are clothed in the skin of citizens of the Hyatt Empire, then they will be treated differently in their home country.

Whether as mercenaries or captains of the Freedom Fleet, they all know how great the benefits can be.

The corners of Lin Mi's mouth couldn't help but show a hint of sarcasm, but he immediately retracted, and he sighed: "Of course, if the two of you are unwilling, we will not be reluctant, but will give the two of you another compensation." ”

"No, Your Excellency Major, we are more than willing to accept your offer." The two of them said almost in unison.

"Okay." Hua Mingtang nodded, his gaze moved to Fang Mingwei and the others, and asked with a smile, "What do you three mean?" ”

Fang Mingwei and the two friends beside him glanced at each other, and they both saw the determination in each other's eyes.

Taking a step forward, Fang Mingwei said: "Your Excellency General, the three of us are all disciples of the teacher, and no matter what decision we want to make, we must get the consent of the teacher, so we only have the heart to understand your kindness." ”

"Wang Ziqiang." Hua Mingtang smiled and said, "Okay, you go back and ask the old boy, just say that I will say hello to him." ”

A frightened look suddenly flashed in the fat leader's eyes, and he finally understood why these three people from second-level civilized countries had such outstanding abilities.

It turned out that they were Wang Ziqiang's disciples, so it was no wonder.

In addition to the level of science and technology, the quality of the individual and the potential of the whole population are also very important indicators.

The biggest reason why the Earth Alliance has been able to rise from a first-tier state in just a few hundred years is not because of the development of science and technology, but because of the great individual ability and the great potential of the whole people.

Among them, the most representative surname is Wang Ziqiang.

A strong person who exceeds level fifteen, which is a top figure that only countries above level three can have, and not all level three civilization countries have a strong person who exceeds level fifteen.

It is precisely because of Wang Ziqiang's prominence that it proves the super potential possessed by the earthlings, so they can be able to raise the level of civilization by one level in just a few hundred years.

This matter was widely spread in the past, and the fat leader naturally knew it clearly, so after learning the true origin of Fang Mingwei and others, it was not surprising that they were super powerful.

Fang Mingwei looked at Hua Mingtang calmly and asked, "It turns out that His Excellency the General and the teacher know each other, which is really disrespectful." ”

Hua Mingtang waved his hand and said, "I do know Wang Ziqiang, and we have been old friends for many years. Back then, he came to the empire alone and studied the same art with me, and after so many years, I really miss him. ”

Fang Mingwei and the others exchanged a surprised look, it turned out that the teacher left the Earth Alliance in the past, not directly to the Kaiyue Empire, but first apprenticed in the Newman Empire to learn art. If it weren't for the narration of Hua Mingtang, they really couldn't believe it.

However, of course, they would not think that Hua Mingtang was lying, and in terms of his status, of course they would not be convinced.

Seeing the curiosity in the eyes of Fang Mingwei and the others, Hua Mingtang smiled: "Do you want to know about him?" ”

"Yes." Fang Mingwei said without hesitation.

"Okay, I'll tell you."

Hua Mingtang waved his hand, and naturally a soldier came up and took the fat man leader and the bearded man out, before these two went out, they looked at everyone with regret, but they didn't have the courage to resist after all, and left obediently.

Looking up at the sky, Hanamedo seems to be caught in nostalgia for the past.

"At that time, Wang Ziqiang and I were very young, not even a hundred years old."

Fang Mingwei's expression moved, a hundred years old is still young, these people's outlook on life is really quite strange. glanced at Hua Mingtang, whose hair was a little gray, and guessed the age of the old general in his heart.

"At that time, we were all arrogant people, although we worshiped under the teacher's door at the same time, but we didn't like each other."

Fang Mingwei and the three of them looked at each other, looking at Hua Mingtang's expression, and they didn't have any hatred for Wang Ziqiang.

Hua Mingtang smiled slightly and said, "These are all things from back then, young and vigorous, and it is understandable." ”

"yes, that's what you said." Fang Mingwei lowered his head respectfully, but he was quite slanderous in his heart, he was a hundred years old, and he was still young and vigorous, and your old man was too exaggerated.

sighed deeply, fortunately, Hua Mingtang didn't know what Fang Mingwei really thought in his heart, otherwise he would definitely order someone to pull him down and cut him down, after a pause, he continued: "But to be honest, among that group of people, the one I admire the most is indeed Wang Ziqiang." ”

After a period of narration, Fang Mingwei and others finally knew a rough idea.

It turns out that in the Newman Empire, every hundred years, a talent selection will be launched throughout the entire empire's sphere of influence.

Once he is chosen, no matter which country he is from, he has the right to go to the empire for further study, and all the expenses are naturally borne by the empire.

At that time, Wang Ziqiang, who was still a citizen of a first-level civilized country, showed an amazing talent for physical skills since he was a child, and was unexpectedly selected in an imperial audition, as the only member from a first-level civilized country, he was sent to the center of the empire and began to learn physical skills.

At that time, there were not many people who studied together, but there were not many who could really survive all the training and achieve success, and among them, the most eye-catching was naturally Wang Ziqiang.

Although he came from a first-class civilization, he showed extremely amazing potential. His cultivation is a thousand miles, which makes all the teachers amazed.

In the end, when he stood out from the tens of thousands and became the first super master to break through the fifteenth level, his name spread throughout the empire as if it had grown wings.

So, under the auspices of the emperor, he personally awarded Wang Ziqiang the title of citizen of the empire, and absorbed him into the ranks of the powerful people of the empire, and retained his empire as an official.

However, Wang Ziqiang seemed to be uninterested in being an official, so he politely refused the Empire's request and returned to the Earth Alliance.

It's just that when he went back, he brought back a large number of technologies from second-level civilization countries for the Earth Alliance, and all those in the know turned a blind eye to his move that obviously undermined the regulations of the Great Federation.

In this way, within a hundred years, the technology of the Earth Alliance has reached the passing line of a second-level civilized country, and at this time, through the mediation of the Newman Empire, Wang Ziqiang went to the Kaiyue Empire.

Although Hua Mingtang didn't know what was happening in the Kaiyue Empire, in the second year, the Earth Alliance successfully became a member of the second-level civilization.

After listening to Hua Mingtang's narration, Fang Mingwei and the others were surprised. If what he said was true, then Wang Ziqiang's terrifying achievements were not something he had worked hard in the Earth Alliance, but after systematic training in a fifth-level civilized country.

After thinking about it seriously, the three of them unanimously agreed with Hua Mingtang's words, perhaps, this is the real truth.

Suddenly, Fang Mingwei's heart moved slightly, and he asked, "Your Excellency General, are you saying that the teacher actually has the status of an imperial citizen?" ”
