Chapter 57: Tan
"Your Highness Pan, hello." After Helkekin sat down, he took out an envelope from his bosom and put it on the coffee table, and then pushed it to Pan: "Thank you very much for your help in making the cooperation between Artshire Union and the World Bank a breakthrough. This is a thank you gift from Speaker Potrovic, and I hope that you will continue to help the county federation and the World Bank reach a deeper cooperation. ”
"Speaker Potrovich is a friend worth making friends with!" Pan picked up the envelope and took out a check with a denomination of 20,000 gold coupons. Pan put the check away, smiled and said to Herkkin: "Speaker Potrovich is really a kind man! Rest assured, I will do everything in my power to help Atlantshire United get back from the Golden Valley. ”
"Thank you, Your Highness...... Speaker Potrovich asked me to convey to His Highness that if you formally re-establish the Kingdom of Leo, the Artshire Union will be the first to declare your recognition of your legitimate rule over the Kingdom of Leo and establish friendly diplomatic relations.
If the Kingdom of Leo wants to develop the ship industry, the Artshire Union can sell ships and supporting technical equipment at a very good price. ”
Since Leo's navy was wiped out by the Raging Waves fleet, and the meteorite forced Leo to sign many treaties restricting the shipbuilding industry, the current Leo can be said to have completely lost his sea power, and the security of the sea depends on the face of the Golden Shield Empire.
After Leo established the kingdom, it was absolutely impossible to develop the navy independently. Only by purchasing a large number of warships and technology from a third country can we regain the lost sea power step by step.
The alliance with the world's top heavy industry is of great significance to the revival of Leo.
"It seems that the Artshire Union has deeply felt the maritime threat of the Golden Shield Empire. We have all seen the power of the dreadnought-class warship, which is a three-dimensional maritime offensive and defensive platform. As far as I know, the Artshire Union has not developed a perfect plan against the Dreadnought-class warships, while Leo has some unique ship technology, and the shipbuilding industry under the World Bank is also actively developing warships of the same class.
If Artecounty United is willing to cooperate, I can combine Artshire United, Leo, and World Bank technology to form a new maritime combat platform development company. ”
Herkin was very interested: "Your Highness, your proposal is very good! I will report your comments to Speaker Potrovich when I get back, and I am sure that the Speaker will be able to give you a positive reply soon. ”
"I'm looking forward to this collaboration." Pan turned around and said, "Compared to the maritime threat that the Golden Shield Empire has given us, the threat of the Meteorite is far higher than that of a dreadnought-class fleet. Now that Meteor is in the Golden Valley, he is far away from the Golden Shield Empire, and this is the time when his defense is the weakest.
Don't you have any extra ideas for the Atlantshire United? ”
Herkkin heard what Pan meant, and he said with a sad face, "We want to use some unconventional means to get rid of the meteorite, but this is the Golden Valley, and the meteorite is a guest invited by the people of the Golden Moon. If the Artejun League were to do something to the Meteorite, it would damage the relationship between the Shirean Federation and the Glittering Ones.
And the Golden Valley is also far away from the Atlantshire Union, and our men are only enough to protect the Speaker and a few officials with special status. ”
Pan said, "If you have this idea and are willing to put it into action, I can arrange opportunities for you. ”
Herkin replied without thinking: "Your Highness...... If we are the only ones who send people to carry it out, the risk taken by the county federation is too great. If you really want to make this happen, please convince the Glitterers to send someone to join in.
After all, the identity of the Meteorite is too special, if he has an accident, the County Alliance and the Golden Shield Empire will no longer have room for relaxation......
I hope you understand, Your Highness! ”
Pan knew that Herkkin could not be easily persuaded by himself.
At present, the war between the Golden Shield Empire and the Artshire Union is only a local war, and the two sides have not declared war on each other, leaving enough room for peace talks. Once the Fall Star was assassinated, the Artejun Union declared war on behalf of the two countries, and the country was transferred to a wartime state.
If the Artetheshire United assassinated the Meteorite, and the follow-up assistance of the Sparkling Gold People was gone, wouldn't this be the Artshire Union jumping into the fire pit by itself?
If you want to do it, you can do it together!
Pan stood up, told the servant to fetch his coat, and then said to Herkkin, "Please accompany me to meet a shimmering golden man, if we can convince her to do so, it is impossible for the Falling Star to leave the Golden Valley alive......"
】
That night, in another safe house set up by the Golden Shield Empire in the Golden Valley, Herkegin reported to Luke about the process of meeting Pan.
Luke asked, "Did you really see Tan?" ”
Herculkin replied thoughtfully: "Pan introduced me to the other party Tan as the director of the World Bank's bad debt management office, and he is also an elder candidate. I've never seen someone so powerful, and just standing in front of her makes me feel like I'm suffocating. ”
"It's normal for you to feel this way." In the gloomy room, the dim light on the wall only illuminated half of Luke's face, and he said calmly: "The World Bank's bad debt handling office has gathered many powerful shimmering gold people, and Tan Neng is certainly very strong as the director to manage this group of debt collectors."
I'm afraid that even Miss Clear Sky may not be able to defeat her even if she is against Shangtan. ”
"Is Tan so strong?"
"It's very strong, and it's the same level as the Sword of Oath of the Sky City Inquisition. What did you talk about with Tan? ”
Hearing that he had just met such a person, Herkin not only sighed, but also quickly replied: "Pan wants to ask Tan and the ice cave agents to carry out an assassination of you together." ”
Luke asked, "Did Tan say yes?" ”
"At first, she didn't agree, but after Pan's persuasion, she agreed......"
"How did Pan convince Tan?"
Herkin recounted the conversation between Pan and Tan to Luke.
Combined with his own knowledge of the inside of the Glittering Gold People, Luke has a general understanding of the inside story.
After the end of the ancient war, the people of Shuojin still had a deep reflection on that war, and the force value was no longer a necessary criterion for being selected into the House of Elders. After the establishment of the World Bank led to the recovery of the Shinjin people, most of the elders who entered the House of Elders were from the World Bank managers, and the powerful Shinjin people were concentrated in the bad debt disposal office.
Now due to the unexpected death of Elder Chun, there is a vacancy in the House of Elders, and Tan, as an alternate elder, naturally wants to enter the House of Elders. However, in the past 100 years, no debt collector has been able to enter the House of Elders, and the selection of elders by the House of Elders has also intentionally or unintentionally excluded Tan from the scope of assessment.
Of course, Tan was dissatisfied in his heart.
If it was before, no matter how dissatisfied she was, she couldn't do anything, after all, the Shuojin people advocate collectivism, and the individual Shuojin people must be subordinate to the Elders' House. However, during this time, the way the House of Elders dealt with some issues has caused dissatisfaction among many Shuojin people.
The most serious thing is that Elder Chun was assassinated by the Shadow Clan, and the House of Elders has not taken strong retaliatory measures against the Shadow Clan so far, which makes the young Zhuang Shuojin who is already preparing to go underground to avenge Elder Chun extremely indignant.
At the same time, as an elder of the Shuojin people, he was easily assassinated to death, and even the fellow elders did not notice it, which also made many Shuojin people question the selection criteria of the House of Elders.
This time, the selection of elders to supplement the House of Elders, and the call for Tan to be an elder candidate is still very high, but these voices cannot enter the ears of the elders who are from managers.
Pan seized on this point to persuade Tan.
"The essence of the current elders is salesmen, and they only think about how to make money safely and steadily, and they have no ambition to fight in the face of crises.
An elder was assassinated, and the troops marching underground were ready to go, but the House of Elders chose to negotiate a settlement at the last minute, but the negotiating team sent underground brought nothing back.
This time, the Golden Shield Empire blatantly challenged the position of the World Bank in international trade, and the Imperial Auxiliary Meteor even proposed dialogue on an equal footing. And this kind of provocation and rude demands were actually approved by the House of Elders, and the elders still thought of a negotiated settlement, completely ignoring how the secular world and the other four civilizations viewed the Gloomy people.
Now the world we live in is on the verge of turmoil, human civilization is rising rapidly, angels, dragons, demons, and shadow people are all restless, and even fallen angels who have disappeared for thousands of years have appeared.
A new civilization war is fast approaching, and the weak Elders' House of Elders is capable of leading the Shining Gold people to defend this brilliant civilization in the war?
Shousuke-sama, these are all things that Pan said to Tan, I remember it very clearly, and I didn't miss a word......"
Herkegin deserves to be a professional intelligence officer, and not only repeats what Pan said to Tan word for word, but also shows his expression and tone in place, so as to facilitate Luke's recovery of the scene to analyze the psychological activities of the two.
Luke asked Herkkin, "From your professional point of view, what do you think of Tan's response?" ”
"Tan is a very serious woman, she is very good at listening and can hide her emotions very well. But to be able to sit in this position, it must be a capable and ambitious person, and the reason why she promised Pan to assassinate you should be more for the vacancy in the Elders' House.
She needs to create a big event to stir up the emotions of the Young Zhuang faction of the Shrouge and force the House of Elders to change its current moderate policies. At a time when the Golden Shield Empire and the Moonlight Court are at odds, the House of Elders needs absolute force to deal with Miss Clearsky's revenge.
Pan should also take a fancy to this, so he will be so confident to persuade. ”
Luke asked again, "What reply did the county federation give to Pan?" ”
Herkkin replied: "Speaker Potrovich has approved the assassination, and he believes that whether the assassination is successful or not, it will lead to further binding of the Atlantshire United to the Sparkling Golden." The Speaker specified that I would be responsible for the assassination......"
Luke laughed: "If the assassination of me is not successful, are you responsible?" ”
Herkin replied: "Speaker Potrovich doesn't know Tan's strength, but he knows Miss Sunny Sky's strength very well, so Speaker is not very optimistic about this assassination." Tomorrow Speaker Potrovich will lead the delegation out of the Golden Valley to avoid reprisals.
I will be responsible for the subsequent diplomacy of the Artejun Union towards the Glittering Gold. ”
Luke couldn't help but shake his head at the escape of the Artecounty United visiting group, and he said to Herkkin: "It's a good thing for you, no one will take credit for you, I will let you go back to the county union with a large amount of assistance from the Sparkling people." ”
"Thank you, Shousuke-sama."
"If nothing else, you can go back. Prepare well for this assassination, and let Pan and the Shining Gold people see the professionalism of the Ice Cave agents! ”
"I understand, Shousuke-sama...... Farewell! ”
As Herkkin leaves, Luke exits the safe house through the other aisles and gets into the car back to the Sparkling Gold Hotel.
Entering the Spirit Starry Sky, a clear sky appeared on Luke's side.
"What level of strength is Tan? I'm ready to protect you. ”
"There is a top-level six-star existence in the five ancient civilizations...... Luke waved his hand, and Tan's image was projected under the starry sky. She wears gold armor and has the looks and body shape of a top boss. Perfect emotional control left her face expressionless, and her eyes were as gray as those of the dead. "On the angel's side is the sword of oath, and the first recommendation of the shimmering gold people is Tan. However, in the ......" video, a black shadow appeared behind Tan: "When the player is attacking Tan's plot, he finds that after defeating Tan, the plot does not end, but there is no hint of continuation." Therefore, some players analyzed that since the people of Sparkling Gold are all twins, then Tan should have the other half.
Later, during the player's investigation, it was found that Tan had a twin sister named Ei. And apart from this name, there is no more information about the shadow. ”
The video shows the video of the player fighting Tan, and Clear Sky said while watching: "I should have no problem dealing with Tan now, but if Shadow also makes a move, you will be in danger!" ”
Luke also watched Tan's battle video, recalling the process of fighting this boss.
Tan's melee offensive and defensive abilities can be said to be flawless, and whether you can clear this copy by yourself depends entirely on character. Even those top players can't guarantee that they will be able to beat the strongest boss in one go.
Clear Sky's strength has improved a lot now, but in the face of Tan, Luke still can't predict the victory.
Besides, there is an unknown shadow of unknown strength behind Tan.
Instead of showing concern, Luke smiled and said, "The fact that the in-game Shadow didn't appear when Tan was beaten by the player means that she may have a reason why she can't appear." And there is Herkin in the opposing camp, and he will tell me about the assassination plan when the time comes.
Let's see the move, there must be a way to deal with the past, you just have to deal with Tan. ”
Clear Sky looked at Tan in the video and said to Luke: "Give me all the information related to Tan, don't bother me if there is nothing important during this time, I want to study her well."
By the way, the sound was released by the Shining Gold Man! ”
"The sound is coming!" Although Luke expected Luke to cast a limited sound, Luke was happy to hear the news.
Luke saw that the clear sky was focused on watching Tan's materials, so he silently withdrew from the spiritual starry sky.
Then he said to the driver: "Hurry up, there are important people waiting for me at the hotel." ”
"Yes, Shousuke-sama." The driver stepped on the valve, and the car's steam engine roared, spewing white steam and rushing forward.
