CHAPTER XX: Saruman

Two days later

"How was the application, did they respond quickly?" Riley asked.

"They replied quickly, and your father was glad to know that it was your request, that Master Saruman had arrived aboard the Black Beetle."

Ransom's words slightly emphasized the word 'happy', and there was a sense of affection for his daughter from an unknown father.

Riley sensed the meaning of Ransom's words, but ignored them, her eyes looked at Li Yi and Grum outside, they were really admiring the qiē in the starship, bumping here and there, like children who saw something funny.

"Your father really loves you, I mean, you don't have to hate him so much." Ransom said hesitantly.

"Nope." Riley's attitude was resolute, and her eyes were full of coldness.

"You won't experience the shame that your family, your friends, and your relatives disappear in front of your eyes with the destruction of the planet, and you can't do anything about it, living alone, while your father is rising step by step because of the destruction of his own planet."

"Maybe there's something else?" Ransom said seriously, after working with Riley as a partner for so long, he really didn't want the girl in front of him to live in this loneliness of being accompanied by everyone all the time.

Riley looked up at Ransom, her eyes as weak as a little girl who had lost her parents, but soon regained her coldness.

Because the door was pushed open, Li Yi rushed in excitedly. Behind is the goofy Groom.

"Can I try it?" Li Yixing asked Ransom angrily.

Ransom looked strange and asked curiously, "What are you talking about?" ”

"He's pretty cool in your armor."

"Absolutely." Ransom smiled. After one glance at Riley, she called one of her men in.

"Prepare two sets of armor for our friends to try."

Then, Li Yi and Grum went out with this ordinary guy excitedly.

"What do you think of him?" After Li Yi walked out, Ransom asked, saw Laili's strange eyes, waved his hand and said, "Don't get me wrong." I mean something else, we can all feel the powerful energy in him, and. His origin is strange. ”

"He's not an enemy." Riley's answer was very succinct and clear.

"Hmm. I know. Ransom nodded.

At this time, Riley suddenly thought of the name of a certain person in Ransom's words just now, frowned at him and asked, "You reported him too." ”

"Of course." Ransom looked like he was right-for-take.

"Don't forget our second duty, recruitment. The whole universe is ultimately ours. ”

Let's talk about it. Leaned back in the chair and stared at Laili with a smile, Laili also knew Ransom very well, Ransom may not be very serious about other things, but this kind of thing, he cares a lot, in Laili's words, he likes to be promoted and rich.

"Don't look at me like that." Ransom smiled slightly. "No one likes to work in such a remote location, I'm not like you. Laili, I have a family, a wife and a daughter, and they are so far away that I am overwhelmed, and my job makes me probably only see my family a few times in my life, and if it weren't for Ansebo, I wonder if my daughter and wife have forgotten my name and looks. ”

Ansebo is one of the fastest information transmission technologies in the universe, which can transmit information to the whole universe in less than ten seconds, and of course it is also very expensive.

Ransom's words made Riley's body soften, if Ransom came here to support her family, then she belonged completely to hide from her father.

At this time, suddenly, the room remembered the sound of beeping, it was the Ansebo communicator, Ransom sat up suddenly, made himself look very energetic, and then turned on the communicator, and then, a holographic image of a bald man appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Master Saruman!" Ransom said respectfully.

Saruman nodded coldly, he was wearing a long gray robe, his skin was different from Laili's, it was blue, his ears were pointed, and his face was painted with red spiral patterns under the eye sockets.

"Is Riley there?"

"Yes." Ransom nodded.

"Hmm. Prepare, we're coming soon. ”

"Understood." Once finished, Saruman's hologram vanished.

Ransom got up from his chair and walked over to Riley to speak.

"Come with me."

Then he walked out.

——————————————————————————————

The wind and clouds in the sky suddenly changed, and a huge black shadow shrouded the entire sky, it was a huge starship like a black beetle, and blue energy flowed from its wings, maintaining the power of the entire starship.

"Lifting the air ban ......"

A mechanical female voice came, and the yellow mesh that enveloped the sky began to slowly disappear from the center, and the whole sky once again returned to pure blue.

Then, the black starship slowly descended from the sky and landed on the ground, very smoothly, only causing a trace of air flow and dust.

Then, the starship's hatch slowly opened, and there was a thud of air, and a man in a gray robe stepped out of it, surrounded by two groups of men in black robes.

"Hello, Master Saruman!" Ransom eagerly walked up to say hello.

"Hmm." Saruman nodded, then looked at Riley behind Ransom, and said gently, "Your father misses you very much, let me say hello to you for him." ”

"I don't miss him at all."

"He must be very sad to hear you say that." After Saruman finished speaking, his gaze turned to Ransom, and he said in a cold tone, "Thank you for taking care of Riley, your new dispatch order will come down soon." ”

"Thank you so much." Ransom said excitedly. But he still maintained his composure, and at the same time waved his hand and said, "Please come with me, you have come from afar." I've prepared a place for you to rest. ”

"No need." Saruman shook his head.

"I don't have a lot of time, I have other things to do." As he spoke, Ransom waved his hand at the black-robed warrior he had been born after.

"Hurry up and get those guys back."

"Yes, Lord Saruman."

The black-robed warriors nodded, and then in front of everyone's eyes, they turned into a black lightning bolt and disappeared.

Ransom saw this. also said flatteringly: "Hunted down by the great black-robed warriors, those interstellar pirates can also stay in prison for a lifetime without regrets." ”

"No need to be a sycophant, Ransom." Saruman didn't look like he'd be used at all. "Let me see the life you have discovered, although it has been described in detail in your report, but my duty. Seeing is still believing. In this way, the preparation for the space-time escape can begin. ”

"Of course." Ransom said respectfully, and after a few words of command to his subordinates, he said, "Please come to me."

Reluctantly, Laili followed behind the two and walked slowly.

However, before he had taken two steps, a strange laugh suddenly sounded in the air.

"Oh...... Don't, wahahaha......"

"Groom......

"What's going on?"

Everyone looked up at the sky, and saw only the pure azure sky. Two flying figures in white armor twisted in the air, and from time to time flames erupted. Draw strange curves in the air.

"They're your soldiers?" Saruman asked Ransom with a cold face.

"Of course not. That's who you want to meet. Ransom hurriedly shook his head and explained that if Saruman was to think that he was not strict with his subordinates, he was afraid that he would be able to get out of this place and be withdrawn again. It was Riley who looked at the sky with a smile.

"I rely on ......"

Li Yi finally got two sets of galactic patrol armor from Ransom, such a high-tech armor, and the armor of Iron Man in the movie, made Li Yi quite interested, he originally came to try to pilot a spaceship, but this is obviously impossible, so he can only retreat to try this set of armor.

After all, every boy has an Iron Man dream, but he didn't expect that it would be much more difficult to fly with the armor than by himself, even if Li Yi's balance was very good, it was still difficult to control.

He also noticed the lineup on the ground, and understood that there should be a big man appearing, and hurriedly said to Grum in another set of armor.

"Groom, get out of here......"

As soon as the words fell, the operator's armor flew towards the base, but at this moment, suddenly, a mechanical voice came from the armor.

"The automatic navigation system system has already begun, and the armor will be converted to intelligent operation."

Then, Li Yi felt the armor slowly fall towards the ground uncontrollably.

Ransom wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and the armor slowly landed on the ground, and then the armor slowly unloaded, Li Yi and Grum walked out of the armor with an embarrassed face, looked at everyone in front of him with a bad face, and said, "I can explain." ”

"No need." Laili smiled slightly.

This made Li Yi a little stunned, and he didn't understand what was going on.

At this time, he also found the strange man in front of him, looking at him and Grum with the same panicked eyes as Laili.

"Bring them here." Saruman said, and walked into the base without looking back.

Ransom nodded hurriedly, and after seeing Saruman leave, he eagerly walked up to Li Yi and roared angrily: "Who gave you the right to drive the armor." ”

"That person seems to be your ......," Li Yi said hesitantly.

Ransom remembered that he really agreed, and he covered his forehead speechlessly, and complained: "I'm so stupid...... Hurry up and keep up, Master Saruman wants to see you. ”

After that, he ignored Li Yi and followed.

"What the hell is going on?" Li Yi was a little confused, and looked at Laili and asked suspiciously, "Am I in trouble?" (To be continued......)

PS: I felt much better when I slept in the morning, but when I woke up at night, I had a cold and was sad......
