Chapter 22: The Calivan Merchant Rogue Family

"What about people?"

"My lord, they're dead."

"Of course I know they're dead, what I want to know is, who killed them?"

"The prophecy says that it is a black monster, a black monster with thunder and lightning all over his body, and he is in this starport......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Get lost! ”

"Okay!"

Looking at the departing figure of the company's priest, the acting company commander of the first company, Sirui, directly gave an order, "I'm fed up with the excuses of you idiots, all the people move for me, find this murderer, find the body back, I will use his skin to write the preface of my lord......"

Before he finished his words, his subordinates interrupted him directly.

"Acting Company Commander of Reis, our team is not available now, and my people are now all in the core area to clean up the remnants of the Caleven family, this simple errand, or let the other teams go, I don't want this credit."

"We're also not available, the ship needs repairs, and we can't leave at all."

"We need to meditate, we don't have time for anything else, but we should be able to help you when it's over."

……

Listening to the more and more outrageous prevarications, Ryth's head began to rise bruises, he waved his hand, let all these idiots in front of him get out, turned to his subordinates and said, "Let's do it ourselves, Byron, you are responsible for searching the outer ring, Jack, you go ......." ”

"My lord, there's no need to be so entangled, Tom and Jerry are their own people, they don't care about life or death, what are we all talking about?"

"Yes, my lord, we also suffered heavy casualties in the battle with the Calivan family, we were squeezed to the front, seven or eight brothers died, there is no need to contribute to the life and death of these shrunken turtles."

Reith looked coldly at some of the subordinates who objected, and the knuckles of his fingers creaked, but in the end he didn't say anything, just turned around silently and sighed, "Let the mortals chase it, and the others will be disbanded!" ”

(Some will say that where would an ordinary Astarte dare to disobey the orders of the company commander, even if it was the acting company commander.)

It is true that this kind of thing would never happen to any of the other Astarte Legions, but this does not include the Bearers, especially in the Bearers Company. οΌ‰

-------------------------------------

Chen Guo cautiously curled up into the depths of the ventilation duct, he was going to hide here to avoid the limelight first, but what he didn't know was that there were no Astartes to chase him at all, only some mortal auxiliaries were chasing him.

Curled up in the corner of the pipe, Chen Guo began to heal his wounds.

Fortunately, with the blessing of Thunder Henglian, the injuries suffered this time can only be regarded as flesh injuries, and the injuries are not too serious, and even Huanglong Dan can recover without need.

While exercising to heal his wounds, Chen Guo was also summing up the process of today's battle.

Although today's battle was full of dangers, the harvest was also abundant, not only did the cash point successfully pull up to 8,000, but also obtained two heavily armed Astarte corpses.

What's more, Chen Guo has also developed a unique way of fighting, that is, using the storage and release function of the magic bag, and using dozens of tons and tons of objects as throwables...... This ability will definitely have an unexpected effect in the future battles.

But to sum up, although today's battle seemed to have Chen Guo's overall upper hand, he actually took a trick.

If these two Astartes hadn't despised Chen Guo, they would have been able to kill themselves directly from a distance of a kilometer with their blaster guns.

The reason why the second Astarte couldn't shoot accurately was entirely because he had been electronumized, and if he was intact and unscathed, he would never have appeared at a distance of ten meters and didn't even shoot a single shot at a dozen shots.

And as long as one hits Chen Guo, then the final outcome will be completely different.

"With the blessed physical strength of the Thunder Spirit Root and the Thunder Horizontal Refining, my current hand-to-hand combat ability has reached the same level as the ordinary Astartes, and even surpassed them in some aspects, but the long-range means are still very lacking, and I can only run around like a mouse.

It's okay when a normal human soldier holds a gun at him, and with their reaction speed, it's easy to dodge lasers and bullets.

But when the Astartes were pointed at guns by these Astartes, who had similar reaction speeds, the situation was completely different, especially since the weapons they used were still explosive rifles armed with rocket bullets......"

Chen Guo silently put his gaze back on the fantasy embodiment data sheet, and after glancing around, Chen Guo finally put his eyes on the Flying Flower and Falling Leaves Hidden Weapon Technique and the puppet technique of the mentally ill person's broad thinking?

In addition to these two, it seems that only the defective product of compound 5 remains, which is an exchange item that may carry long-range attack capabilities.

But unless this thing comes to the most critical moment, Chen Guo will never exchange and use it.

In addition, even at the most critical moment, this kind of lottery-like thing is definitely not as reliable as the death song...... It would be better if the price could be specified as some unimportant organs, such as the flattened brain body and appendix.

Touching the frame of his right eye, which was temporarily covered, Chen Guo no longer hesitated, and exchanged the flying flowers and fallen leaves.

Because the secret weapon technique of Flying Flowers and Falling Leaves was a simple indoctrination version, Chen Guo only obtained the mental memory, physical memory, and acupuncture point diagram of the human body about thousands of hidden weapons and techniques in just an instant...... On the spot, he went from a hidden weapon Xiaobai who could only use brute force to a secret weapon master.

Taking out a metal ingot from the magic bag, Chen Guo weighed it and wanted to find a target to try, but when he saw that there were all metal pipes around him, he was forced to give up this idea with a sigh and continue to close his eyes and heal his wounds.

But as soon as he closed his eyes this time, the sparse creeping sound and the extremely subtle collision sound came from the depths of the ventilation duct......

"Master, be careful, I'll explore the way first."

"I'm fine."

Madeleine Callivan is one of the current shipowners of the Califin Rogue Merchant family.

Despite the fact that she is only 27 years old now, and has only been a family member for 7 years, she has already successfully led many interstellar trades, and the total amount of trade accounts for the forefront of the entire Callivan family.

If everyone has their own talents, then Madeleine Callivan's talent is to be a ronin trader.

However, in addition to being a wealthy merchant ronin, she is also an avid fan of the emperor.

The Emperor's fanatical fans are not small in the entire galaxy, and after the birth of the future state religion, such fans are called believers, and they are the absolute backbone of the empire.

But now before the birth of the state religion, there are not many fanatical fans who can fight for a long time with an Astarte Dalian, and Madeleine Callivan is one of them.

In order to resist these traitors, she personally commanded her favorite cruiser to crash into the main engine of Starport, and personally led her subordinates in a fierce battle against the Astartes.

For this reason, the retainers and family wealth she had worked hard to accumulate over the past few years were almost wiped out, and only a few hundred people remained by her side.

You know, before the rebellion began, there were nearly 1670,000 people under her command, a cruiser, seven frigates and three transport ships were helping her, but in just a few days, less than one thousandth of them were slaughtered by Astarte, and there were only two frigates left in the entire fleet.

Originally, Madeleine Calivan was ready to fight and die for the emperor, but she still accepted the plan to escape under the death advice of her retainers, and the retainers who left behind the death requisitions resisted desperately, and she herself escaped through the ventilation duct with a few subordinates, just to spread the news of the rebellion of the Speakers.

"Damned Waiver, I must bring your plot to light."

Madeleine Callivan suddenly hit her head on the body of the retainer in front of her, she was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted and pulled out the pistol on her waist, "What's wrong, Qing." ”

"Head of the house, there's someone in front!"

"Huh?" Madeleine Callivan slowly raised her head and looked forward through the gap between her retainer's body and the pipe, and immediately saw a naked man sitting at the end of the pipe, holding a copper-yellow metal ingot, looking at them with a cautious face.

Seeing that it was not the auxiliary army of the Bearers, let alone the pursuers of Astarte, Madeleine Callivan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and she patted the retainers in front of her: "Go first." ”

"Yes, Master!"

Looking at these people who were crawling towards him with gray faces, Chen Guo's eyes were full of vigilance, but judging from the clothes on these guys, they should have nothing to do with the Speaker, but they looked very much like the people of the Ronin family...... It can't be the Callivan family.

Seeing that these people climbed to a place two meters away from him and stopped, Chen Guo asked in a low Gothic voice, "Who are you?" ”

Madeleine Callivan was also stunned when she heard the Gothic language, she stuck her head out from behind the retainer, and replied in Gothic: "We are the Calivan Ronin Trader, who are you?" ”

"Aren't you trapped in the main control area?" Chen Guo didn't expect that his guess was correct, this Calivan family really had some ability, and they were able to run here from under the noses of the Huai Yan.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Can you let it go? We're going to get over. Madeleine Calivan did not answer Chen Guo's question, but made a request to borrow it.

Chen Guo glanced at the narrow passage beside him, and then at his naked body and the team of people in the pipe with no end in sight: "I suggest you wait here for a while before going out, I just killed two Astartes, and now there may be some chaos outside."

"Puff~"

"Haha~"

A very mocking laugh came from the ranks in the depths of the pipe, and Madeleine Callivan also looked at the man in front of her who seemed to be not very mentally normal.

"Kill two Astartes? It's up to you? Acquaintances get out of here, or I'll kill you! "The retainers who opened the way for Madeleine Callivan raised their weapons in bad words.

Chen Guo's eyes narrowed, he was thinking about whether to kill only this leader, or kill them all, and what kind of means should be used to kill them so as not to make too much noise.

"Qing!"

Madeleine Callivan scolded, years of experience as a runner told her that the man in front of her might not be lying.

But how is this possible?

Her retainers are no worse than the Imperial Guard, but when facing Astarte, they still almost hit a casualty rate of four thousand to one, how could the man in front of him kill two Astartes with the power of one person?

"Please give way, or you can come with us, we have a ship to leave here that can give you a ride." Although Madeleine Callivan was very reluctant to believe what Chen Guo said, she politely offered the invitation.

"You have a spaceship?" Chen Guo was overjoyed in his heart, but then he shook his head, now that the entire starport has been occupied by the Bearer Warband, and the people of this Callivan family have all escaped from the core area, even if they have a spaceship in the starport, how can they know that the spaceship has not been occupied or destroyed?

"Yes, there was a frigate that temporarily left the starport at the beginning of the battle, and we have already made contact with the captain, who will make an emergency landing when we reach the outer ring deck and pick us up and leave ......"

"Master of the house, there's no need to explain so much to him, I'll kill him, let's move on!" The man who led the team raised the firearm in his hand with some impatience and pulled the trigger on Chen Guo.

"Qing!" Madeleine Callivan wanted to stop it, but she was still a step too late, and watched as a dazzling yellow laser shot out and headed straight for Chen Guo's body.

"Poof~"

But something unexpected happened to her, after the yellow laser sank into Chen Guo's chest, it only burned a small piece of skin and disappeared directly.

Looking down at the burnt skin, Chen Guo grinned, and the whole person fell in front of Qing like a ghost, reached out and pinched his neck, pressed his cheek hard against the ventilation duct and rubbed it, and snatched the laser gun in his hand, pressed the hot muzzle against his head and squeezed it hard until a diamond-shaped burn was squeezed out: "Say, how do you want to die?" ”

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, but please be merciful." Madeleine Calivan hastened to apologize, not only her retainer but also her fiancΓ© and her most important assistant, "Please spare his life, and in exchange, we will send you away!" ”

Chen Guo looked at this woman, saw that her eyes were clear and he didn't mean to deceive himself, he pinched the entire laser gun into a ball of scrap iron with his hand, and threw it to her, "Okay, then I'll spare his life and take off his clothes!" ”

"Huh?"

"I didn't let you take it off, I'll let him take it off!"

After changing into Qing's clothes, Chen Guo finally stopped being naked, and began to take the lead along the pipe to climb forward.

"I just heard him call you the head of the house, you are the head of the Calivan Merchant Rogue family? So young? ”

"Yes, our Callivan family is different from other merchant ronin families, and we implement a multi-lord system, and the master is divided but not separated.

The ancestral motto of the family required that the direct blood relatives must follow them to run the merchant at the age of ten, and I took over at the age of twenty too late, my father had his own merchant fleet when he was fifteen years old, and at the age of seventeen he had already created his own branch family, and I only took over part of his burden. ”

"Oh, multiple masters, this person's heart is scattered, and it's easy to manage?"

"The family has an elder patriarch and an elders' council, and when some difficult problems are encountered, the patriarch and the elder council will come forward to solve and coordinate, so even if there are conflicts between different branches, they will be resolved quickly."

"That's it......" Chen Guo stopped, he looked at the pipe connection that marked 156 not far away, "The outer ring deck, it's here!" ”
