Chapter 897: Conflict Escalation

Elder Qian sat in the carriage and went to the Alliance Elders' House in a good mood.

There were thirty-two Protoss masters in the front and back of the carriage, who were responsible for accompanying him to protect his safety.

In fact, he felt that it was not necessary, although he had already torn his face with Elder Zhao, and the two were on opposite sides, but at least everyone was a face-saving person, and the battle in the workplace would not rise to the point of using force.

In fact, the two of them have their own priorities in terms of power, Elder Zhao relies on hundreds of thousands of Protoss troops, and he firmly holds the military power in his hands, which is also a magic weapon that he has stood firm for many years.

On the other hand, Elder Qian has always been mainly engaged in managing economic affairs, and his team has also been cultivated in this process, all of whom are shrewd and capable, good at creating public opinion and controlling public opinion, and have won the support of the majority of middle and low-level gods in this regard.

In general, Elder Zhao is stronger, after all, he has big roots and deep roots.

However, Elder Sun, one of the four elders, fell to Elder Qian, causing the strength and prestige of this faction to increase instantly, and it had the momentum to overshadow Elder Zhao's faction.

Elder Qian was happy because of this, originally Elder Sun expressed neutrality, and more than once expressed his loyalty to the Council of Elders in public, rather than to someone, his sudden defection caught Elder Zhao a little off guard.

However, Elder Zhao was not worried, when it came to playing political tricks, he thought that he would not lose to Elder Qian, even if the other party successfully won over Elder Sun to join the gang, he might not be able to defeat him, don't forget that there is another Elder Li who is neutral, as long as he wins him over, his side will still have the advantage.

He firmly believed that Elder Li would not be in the same stream as the surnamed Qian, Elder Li was notoriously upright, and of course he would not like Elder Qian, who was calculating.

Elder Qian lifted the curtain of the carriage and glanced out, the purpose of going to the Alliance Elders' House today, in addition to showing off his might to Elder Zhao's faction, is also a very important point, which is to announce the resumption of trade activities with the Terrans, and he will not take you to play.

He could imagine how the surprised expressions of Hehe and his team would be when he said this.

Because of the trade activities, the economy of the god realm has recovered and developed rapidly, even the ordinary god clan can clearly see this, and the resumption of trade will definitely win the support of the people, as for those surnamed Zhao, let them oppose it, just ignore it.

He relied on the attraction of Terran goods to the Protoss, and since the interruption of trade, the major trading companies have hoarded Juqi, and the prices of goods from the Terran have increased by at least three times, and some luxury goods have soared all the way to tenfold, or even dozens of times.

It can be seen that the Protoss has no immunity to Terran goods, let alone selling them at the original price, even if it is only a little lower than the price on the market, it will trigger a rush to buy.

In this way, it not only earns the hearts of the people, but also makes money, so why not.

Suddenly, there was a whistle in the sky, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Sixty-four guards pressed their hands on the hilts of their swords at the same time, and looked around with fierce eyes, and the coachman struck the reins, and the carriage stopped.

Whoosh!

Crossbow arrows like locusts were fired from all directions, aiming straight at the carriage.

The guards drew their swords and slashed at the crossbow arrows.

The captain shouted: "Elder Qian, be careful, the other party uses an enhanced version of the God Destroying Crossbow, and the arrows are coated with poison! Everyone shrinks their defense, don't give the other party a chance!"

Elder Qian stretched out his hand to grab a crossbow arrow that was shot at his throat, and when he looked down, the sharp arrow had a touch of blue on it, and it was indeed coated with poison.

He said angrily: "Who is so bold as to dare to assassinate the Great Elder in the street, don't you want to die?"

At this time, the enemy commander issued an order: "Everyone, speed up the release of arrows, be sure to shoot all these people to death in a short time, and then retreat according to the established route and accelerate the shooting!"

Burst!

Sou...... Burst!

Several of the guards were shot one after another and fell to the ground and died.

The captain of the guard walked quickly to the carriage and said in a hurried tone: "Elder Qian, the firepower of the other side is very fierce, and we don't have a shield and other defensive weapons, which is really a great loss! ”

Elder Qian gritted his teeth and said, "Hold on a little longer, and the security team will arrive soon." ”

The captain smiled bitterly and said, "Don't you understand, assassinating the Great Elder on the street, is such a thing that ordinary people dare to do? Since the other party dares to make a move, it means that they have made full preparations, and if their subordinates are not mistaken, the security team will not appear in time at all." ”

Elder Qian's face sank, and what the captain said made sense, so he said without thinking: "Withdraw to the mansion immediately, and don't go to the Alliance Elders' House." ”

"Elder Qian is wise, and his subordinates obey orders!"

The guards protected the carriage and fought and retreated, until they reached the corner of the street, when the enemy stopped attacking and quickly withdrew.

After a while, the vigilantes arrived belatedly.

Elder Qian's face was pale, and he thought that he must have been informed of the purpose of his trip by the surnamed Zhao, so he sent people to carry out the assassination, so ruthless, since you are unkind, don't blame me Qian for being unjust.

To be honest, Elder Zhao is really not the mastermind behind this matter, strictly speaking, he is behind the black cauldron, and it doesn't matter who is behind the scenes, the key is that Elder Qian believes that he did it.

Meanwhile, near the Protoss airspace, a deal is underway.

The two parties to the transaction were the Terrans from the Holy Heaven Continent and the Qian family, the largest weapon and equipment manufacturer in the God Realm.

The location was personally chosen by Qian Jing, and it was far away from the Protoss's airspace fleet, making it an excellent place to trade.

Qian Jing stood on a medium-sized shuttle, and no one knew of his existence except for a few important people in the family.

In addition to the three large shuttles serving as transport ships, the Qian family's fleet also has more than a dozen combat-type medium-sized shuttles, which are responsible for escort missions.

Looking at the Terran fleet, there are a total of four large shuttles, plus a special shuttle, and several medium-sized shuttles.

The Terran fleet is larger than the Qian family's fleet, and Qian Jing doesn't think it's any strange, after all, this is a private transaction, the Terran needs to transport the goods back to the Holy Heaven Continent, and there is a high probability of accidents on the way, in order to ensure safety, more escort shuttles are needed.

The Terrans guarantee that the acceptance process will be very fast, no more than an hour and a half at most.

The short time does not mean that the standard of the acceptance form will be lowered, but only because the Terrans have prepared a larger number of acceptance personnel, and their attitude towards substandard products is the same as before - they will never pay for these equipment.

The acceptance work officially began, and Qian Jinggao's heart slowly returned to its original position, after all, this was the first private transaction between the two parties, and it must be false to say that he was not worried.

But from the current situation, the next process should be smooth and there will be no problems.

How did he know that this transaction had long been no secret.

Alliance Elders, Lei Shaoyuan hurriedly broke into Elder Zhao's office, and before the other party could raise his head, he had already spoken: "I just got the news that the Qian family is secretly trading with the human race, and the amount of goods is very large, and it is full of three large shuttles!"

Elder Zhao stood up with a snort, twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Really?"

Lei Shaoyuan nodded, and Zhengse replied: "It's true, in order to ensure safety, they chose to trade outside the airspace of the God Realm, and the Qian family also sent more than a dozen medium-sized shuttles to escort them. ”

"The bold Qian family is really too much!" Elder Zhao was furious and asked again, "What kind of goods are the two sides trading?"

"Armament. Lei Shaoyuan replied, and then explained: "It's the batch that the Qian family pressed in the warehouse, which was originally customized for the human race, I thought that they would honestly carry out the orders of the Council of Elders, but I didn't expect to collude with the human race so soon! The Qian family is indeed very bold, but in the final analysis, it is because of Elder Qian's support on it, otherwise they would not dare." ”

Elder Zhao took a few deep breaths one after another, and said in a deep voice: "This is a blatant violation of the regulations formulated by the Council of Elders, and it must be severely punished, otherwise more people will follow suit in the future! Order the nearest airspace fleet to attack, surround both sides, force them to surrender, and then escort them back for a public trial." ”

Lei Shaoyuan gave a thumbs up and said sincerely: "Elder Zhao is wise! In this way, the evidence of the Qian family's private collusion with the human race will be revealed, and Elder Qian will definitely be discredited, see what else he can do to fight you." ”

Elder Zhao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and said, "The person surnamed Qian wants to fight with me, but he is still a little tender." ”

A quarter of an hour later, the seventh detachment of the Protoss Airspace Fleet received an order, and six special shuttles led twenty large shuttles, as well as an even larger number of medium-sized shuttles, towards the predetermined location, with a fierce momentum.

The two parties to the transaction did not know about this and were moving the equipment.

The Protoss airspace fleet is divided into a total of twenty detachments, each detachment has hundreds of shuttles, and a small planet near the divine realm is selected as a base for stationing, and most of the families of the fleet personnel live in the base.

A member of the Qian family came to the back of Qian Jing and said loudly: "The head of the Qi family, the acceptance work is nearing the end, and the next main task is to carry it. ”

Qian Jing smiled, nodded and said, "Very good, does the other party pay the remaining amount?"

The tribesmen replied, "The payment for this shipment has been made, and when all the equipment is moved, they will pay the deposit for the next shipment." ”

Qian Jing was completely relieved, as long as he got the money, he was not afraid of anything.

Shout!

A gray light flashed through the porthole in front of him, and he frowned and asked, "What is it?"

The captain next to him also frowned, and guessed: "It seems to be a shuttle! But it's not right, we are trading with each other, and the two sides are in a state of zero speed in the air, who dares to run around here, in case of hitting other shuttles, wouldn't it be dead." ”

Woohoo!

More gray light flashed, and the captain's eyes widened and he shouted, "Oh no, it's the Protoss Airspace Fleet, how could they appear here?"

Qian Jing immediately panicked and asked, "Are you sure it's the Protoss fleet?"

The captain pointed to the nearest shuttle and said, "You can't be wrong, that's the emblem of the seventh detachment, how can they be here?"

At this time, the Protoss fleet was all in place, and the two fleets in the transaction were surrounded.

The flagship of the Seventh Fleet turned on the megaphone and said to the panicked two groups of people: "This is the Seventh Detachment of the Protoss Airspace Fleet, you have been surrounded, if you don't want to be shot down, you will honestly choose to surrender and return to the Divine Realm with us for trial." ”

Qian Jing's heart was in his throat, why was he so unlucky, he was caught in the first transaction.
