Chapter 270: The Three-Year Period Has Arrived!
Three years later, the Kree Empire.
The capital of the Cree people, "Kerry-la", a majestic castle was recently inaugurated.
The architectural style of the castle is solemn, and the city gate is majestic and grand, like a creeping beast, dark and aggressive.
Nebula, who had just been promoted to the rank of Imperial Consul, hurried into the castle.
With her head held high, she wore a well-cut black imperial uniform, which perfectly accentuated her proud figure.
The gold sickle badge on the collar and cuffs represents her high status in the Empire.
Behind Nebula, a dozen Cleres, dressed as civilians, strode with her up the stairs to the castle's main hall.
On every twelve steps of the staircase, guards with weapons stood on either side of the staircase.
Dressed in black armor and unsquinting, they loyally protect the castle and will be mercilessly slaughtered if they dare to trespass on it.
The red and blue flags fluttered in the slightly dry breeze, and in the center of the banner was a large scythe.
In this situation, Xingyun couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
Three years ago, she and her master arrived on Cree with a few rabble, and in just a few days they took control of the powerful empire.
And officially renamed it - the Cain Empire.
The former leader of the Kree Empire, "Supreme Intelligence", a life computer, was dismantled into parts by its owner, and is being used as a foundation stone, pressing under the castle where she is now.
Now, three years later, the Cain Empire is getting stronger and stronger, and the empire's territory is expanding step by step.
She came here today to inform Her Honored Majesty that the Nova Empire next door had agreed to surrender.
Thinking about it, Nebula and his men stepped to the top of the stairs.
Two soldiers, wrapped tightly and with only two eyes exposed, had been waiting outside the metal gate of the palace for a long time.
There is no sign of carrying weapons on their bodies, and their arms hang down naturally beyond ordinary people, and their seemingly relaxed bodies are already ready to attack, and they can burst out at any time and take people's lives like probing for things.
Nebula knew that these two were not ordinary soldiers, but the master's most powerful subordinates, called Shadow Stream.
"The Almighty Soldier King of the Female President"
They were elusive, decisive in killing, and made great contributions to the empire in three years.
It is the eternal dream demon of all the opponents of the empire and the rebellion.
"Your Excellency, please follow me."
One of them spoke up, his voice flat and cold, not causing any fluctuations in his tone due to Nebula's status.
Because they are only loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, everyone else except him is the same in the eyes of Shadowstream.
The other Shadow Stream looked at Nebula's men with cold eyes.
Nebula was accustomed to their rejection of people from thousands of miles away, and he was not offended.
You know, the master sent a team of shadowstreams to protect her secretly, and she hasn't seen that team yet.
Alone with the shadow stream into the main hall, as for those subordinates, they are not qualified to enter.
The huge throne stood in the empty palace, and countless flags hung beside it, which was a testament to the Empire's military conquest, each representing a planet, a nation, or even a race.
The tall pillars are angular and angular, just like this country, and there is no room for weakness.
However, there was no one on the throne at this time.
The shadow stream on the side saw the confusion on Xingyun's face and explained, "Your Majesty is taking a lunch break, do you need me to help you inform him?" ”
Xingyun looked at the time and shook his head: "No need, Your Majesty should be about to wake up." ”
Then, she walked up to the stairs of the throne and sat down, and said to Shadowstream, "Get me a cup of coffee, and the papers from outside." ”
"Please wait, Your Excellency." After Shadow Stream finished speaking, it turned into a cloud of mist and disappeared.
Nebula pulled her hair and looked at the empty hall in a daze.
It wasn't long before Shadowstream brought what she needed, and she began to drink Earth's specialty coffee and flip through the papers.
After three years of training, Nebula has long since gone from being a dangerous assassin to a qualified Imperial Archon.
If memory serves, the last time she fought someone else seemed to be two years ago, when she got into a fight with her sister Gamora.
After waiting for about half an hour, there was a sound of footsteps in the hall.
Nebula subconsciously looked up, but he didn't see anything, but instead a voice came from the throne behind him.
"When did you come back?"
"Today." She shifted her position slightly, leaning her somewhat aching waist against the leg of the man behind her, continuing to work on the remaining papers.
Lu Wu, who was sitting on the throne, didn't move, just let her lean on like this, yawned and asked, "What's the matter with your hair?" ”
Xingyun, who had his back to the man, flashed a hint of joy on his face: "How is it, is it good-looking?" ”
"It's okay." Lu Wumo rubbed his chin: "It's just a little unaccustomed." ”
Xingyun suddenly sullenly said, "It's a pity it's fake." ”
"They said that my previous temperament was too much like a warrior, and the wig with a top would look softer and more in line with the image of an archon."
"You used to be beautiful too." Lu Wu never hesitates to praise useful people.
The consul smiled and replied, "Thank you for the compliment, my dear Imperial Majesty. ”
After getting along for so long, she has long lost the fear she had when she first met, and sometimes she even makes harmless jokes with this seemingly ruthless emperor.
Then, the hall fell silent, Nebula lowered his head and continued to work on the unfinished papers, while Lu Wu dozed off on his throne.
When Nebula looked up again, a long time had passed, and she stood up and stretched, moaning in comfort.
"I'm finally done."
Then, turn to look at the man behind him.
Lu Wu was now wearing only a loose nightgown, leaning lazily on the throne, one hand supporting his cheek and pretending to sleep, and a large piece of fruit on his sturdy upper body was exposed.
Nebula made no secret of his desire for this man, staring at him with two eyes that seemed to breathe fire.
Unfortunately, the man didn't mean this, and asked with his eyes closed:
"Tell me, come to me for something."
"Can't I come to you if I'm fine?" Nebula stepped up the stairs of the throne step by step: "We haven't seen each other for more than half a year. ”
Lu Wu did not hesitate: "Tell the truth." ”
"You're boring, my majesty." Nebula finally sat on the throne's wide armrest, reaching out to help the man with his slightly messy hair.
"The Nova Empire has surrendered, and they say they are willing to cede the territory of 316 planets."
"These include 87 habitable planets and 137 mining planets."
"Congratulations, you're one step closer to the Emperor of the Universe."
Lu Wuhou leaned back on the female archon's plump body, and replied with a smile, "Wasn't that what I was. ”
"What about Thanos, is there any movement?"
