Chapter 271: Ancient Ruins

Imperial Arsenal, full name Betales Imperial Sophisticated Weapons Research Database.

It is a place used to store drawings and data of various weapons and equipment of the Betales Empire, and it is also the most secret base of the Empire.

Except for the current emperor and the two earls of the Pillar Kingdom, no one knows its location.

At that time, the Bertales Empire fell apart, the imperial family was slaughtered, and Emperor Bertales was assassinated and died.

As one of the pillar kingdoms, Count Xuewei led a fleet to defend against the enemy and died on the battlefield.

The other Pillar State packed up all the data blueprints in the Empire's arsenal and wanted to rebuild the Betales Empire.

But unfortunately, his family died on the way to escape, and some of the various drawings and data he carried disappeared with the destruction of the battleship, and some of them were divided among all parties.

And both the free camp and the righteous order have searched the entire Betales star field and have not found the ancient ruins that allowed the rise of the Betales Empire, and then after evaluating the scientific and technological strength of the Betales Empire, they believe that the ancient ruins are not of great value to their own side, so they give up the search.

It wasn't until the FA Legion Expeditionary Force returned and gathered the widow of Count Bloodway as the leader to recover the Betales constellation and establish the Betales Federation.

And because of the existence of Xuewei III, it also makes people think that the location of this imperial arsenal is only known to him.

That's why dozens of pirate groups formed an alliance to besiege the Betales Federation, and the people behind these pirates were just to force Xuewei III to take the initiative to open the imperial arsenal.

But it's a pity that over the years, Xuewei III has only opened the combat readiness warehouse and the mineral storage warehouse, and has never seen the shadow of the imperial arsenal at all.

So this time, after detecting the signal of this ancient ruin, the two of them understood why the two civilizations had not been able to find this ancient ruin, and felt that this ancient ruin was not in space, but in the planet!

Escalate the message?

The idea was shattered by Frederick McGee as soon as it came out.

Reporting this news is just a lot of resources and star coins for him, and it won't improve the strength of his own forces.

Frederick McGee is an ambitious man, so he must take down this ancient relic before other civilizations know about it!

Subsequently, Frederick McGee immediately ordered:

"Order, block all access to the Beecher Meteor Domain, and all communications must be controlled!

Ladies and gentlemen, there may never be a second time in almost this life, and it's up to your opinion whether you want to do it or not.

Of course, if you're afraid, just report directly to the Demon Civilization, I will definitely not stop it, and I can't stop it! ”

Although Frederick McGee is the commander-in-chief of this fleet of the free faction, these fleets are a combined fleet of three civilizations, and they are not of the same mind as him.

Therefore, if you want to plan this ancient ruin, you must block the news internally and divide the interests.

Otherwise, as long as the news spreads, it will be empty.

Everyone looked at each other and looked at each other, and there was undisguised greed in everyone's eyes.

"Commander-in-chief, we are all our own people here, but it is easy to talk." A civilized commander hesitated and said, "But I'm afraid that the righteous order will pass the news to the Angel Civilization, and then we won't be able to stop the Angel Civilization's fleet!" ”

His concerns were rightly founded.

If they didn't notify the demon civilization because of greed, then the fleet of the angel civilization would come over in person, then not only would they not be able to get a piece of the ancient ruins, but they would probably even have to stay here.

To this, Frederick McGee showed a white tooth, the corners of his eyes narrowed slightly, and replied very firmly:

"Don't worry, I know that the commander-in-chief of the righteous order will never give up such a good opportunity.

As for the fleets of those civilizations under its banner, then there is even more to worry about.

Now that such a big benefit is in front of us, who can endure enough? ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded, also agreeing with Frederick McGee's statement.

After all, everyone is an adult, and the so-called justice and evil are just excuses for the service of the powerful.

Whether it is the righteous order or the free camp, the two sides are not fighting to the death here for two words: interests!

Without interests, who would really risk their lives to fight in this battlefield like a meat grinder!

Justice?

Evil?

Don't be funny, how much is that worth?

In fact, just after Frederick McGee and others decided to hide the news of the ancient ruins, Michael Black also decided to take a share of the ancient ruins, and also chose to hide it from the top.

Subsequently, Frederick McGee had a private correspondence with Michael Black.

"Old friend, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you're still as ugly as before."

"yes, we haven't seen each other for more than thirty years, and I really hope that the next time we meet in person, we can screw your head off and put it in the exhibition room of my battleship."

"I'm afraid you'll see your own brains then."

β€œ.......”

As soon as the communication between the two was connected, they began to ridicule each other from the first sentence.

After making fun of each other about the war during this time, the two quickly turned the conversation to the point.

Frederick McGee raised his glass and took a sip of it, moistening his hoarse throat.

"The Imperial arsenal has appeared, you should know that, right?"

"Of course, how could I not know such a strong space signal?"

Michael Black also took a sip of wine after speaking, quietly waiting for Frederick McGee's response.

The two old classmates and old opponents who were still preparing for war were in such a quiet stalemate, and no one spoke again.

The minutes and seconds passed.

It wasn't until Frederick McGee finished his glass that he took the last sip of his wine and turned his head to look at Michael Black's holographic projection beside him.

"Temporary truce, no intrusion until this ancient relic is taken."

"As for who can get it, it's up to each person."

Michael Black added with a squint.

"Of course." Frederick McGee turned off the com.

As for why the two sides did not divide the interests in advance, because it was completely unnecessary and meaningless.

Both of them know each other's personalities very well, and in the face of this kind of opportunity comparable to a carp jumping over the dragon gate, it is empty to say anything.

Both sides of this ancient ruin are bound to win, no matter how good it is said now, when it comes to the critical moment, the other party will definitely not hesitate to give themselves a knife, and then swallow this ancient ruin alone.

Any agreement is just a piece of waste paper in the face of insufficient strength!

......

After hanging up the communication, Frederick McGee hesitated and broadcast the communication request.

Then, a slightly exclamatory voice came from it.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, you can still remember my private communication channel."

The face of an old man was also projected in front of Frederick McGee.

Dressed in a neat military uniform and gray hair, who is not old money!

Looking at the old man in front of him, Frederick McGee did not have the-for-tat confrontation with Michael Black just now, but was slightly respectful.

"Teacher, long time no see."

When Frederick McGee and Michael Black were at Imperial University, the old man was their teacher.

At the beginning, as the highest academic institution in the Betales Empire, the people who could enter it to teach were not simple people, but all of them were people with great military exploits in the empire back then.

And Lao Qian was one of the few tenured professors at Imperial University back then!

After all, this is the only one who dares to command the battle while teaching in combination with the situation on the battlefield.

You know, at that time, Lao Qian was engaged in a war related to the national fortunes of the Bertales Empire!

Therefore, Frederick McGee and his students have great respect for this old man, even if they are enemies now, this respect has not diminished.

Facing Frederick McGee's teacher, Old Qian hurriedly waved his hand.

"Don't, you're a famous blood fox, I can't be your teacher."

Frederick McGee, who was known as one of the two walls in the Imperial University at that time, quickly showed his talents after joining the free camp, and relied on his Blood Fox fleet to make a name for himself in the free camp.

Regarding the denial of old money, Frederick McGee still said with a smile:

"You're welcome, almost all of the students' skills are learned from you, how can you not be a teacher?"

The tone is quite like the feeling that a student who has graduated for many years has made some achievements, and after meeting a teacher, he can't help but want to show off his achievements.

In fact, Frederick McGee did have such an idea.

But in response to him, it was Lao Qian's cold words.

"Since you call me a teacher, how can I teach you to betray your motherland, your beliefs, and your comrades-in-arms?"

Faced with the old money's questioning, Frederick McGee fell silent.

Although he was captured on the battlefield at first, and finally joined the free camp under the coercion and lure of his parents, it is undeniable that he has betrayed everything......

After a moment of silence, Frederick McGee could only say to the teacher he respected most in the past: "Teacher, I'm sorry. ”

He didn't want to argue, because it was already a fact.

Lao Qian fixed his eyes on the proud protΓ©gΓ© in front of him, who he admired the most back then.

After a long time, he hung up the communication, leaving only one sentence echoing in Frederick McGee's ears.

"I know why you're here, but remember the first class I taught you?"

Frederick McGee closed his eyes until Old Money's slightly aged voice slowly stopped.

"Teacher, is that your answer?"

He still remembers the first lesson that Lao Qian gave these new commanders back then, and he dares to guarantee that all the students will remember it too!

He could still remember what the flower of the empire, who was still in the prime of life at the time, said in a frivolous tone when arguing with a female teacher in class:

"If you can't get something on the battlefield, don't think you can get it from the negotiating table!"
