Chapter 174: Refuge
Those envoys of the temple didn't dare to make a move, they had already been stupid by Chu Hongye, and they had no reason to provoke the female demon king before the large number of reinforcements from the temple arrived. After a few days of unwillingness to be dispatched by the emissaries of the temple, Musar joined forces with the other leaders, and then abruptly withdrew his troops and returned to his base, citing the fact that "the army is too strong to continue the struggle." In fact, he was just temporarily backing down without the certainty of victory.
And the other leaders were already dazed, and they didn't notice Musea's withdrawal at all, anyway, their army was almost always attacked by two or three people at the same time, and they were also attacking several people at the same time, where could they still see the situation on the battlefield clearly?
And a small fire incident made the three leaders of the 'Silver Snake' and the 'Witch' fight each other again, and then it became even more lively, and the battle group was inexplicably intertwined together, and the fight was even more lively and hot. A large number of soldiers and munitions were consumed in completely meaningless positional battles, and the soldiers' energy was already insufficient.
The forces of the other twenty-five gangs of the committee have joined forces to clean up the strength of the 'Silver Snake' and 'Witch' of other star systems, and the strength of the army has been reorganized, and they have all reinforced, and the strength of the twenty-five gang alliance has increased greatly, and it has vaguely occupied an overwhelming advantage.
Yi Chen keenly grasped this situation, and learned from several descendants of Skye that the current strength ranking is the 'Phantom Star'. This gang's army is now ranked seventh among the twenty-five gangs, and he has ambitions to get a higher position and gain greater benefits afterwards, but his strength is not good, and he is not willing to act as a commissioner like the weaker gangs below.
Yi Chen smiled, and he analyzed Kane: "We now have 200,000 heavily armed soldiers on hand, although the combat effectiveness is a little worse, but the arms are the best goods. We have a large arsenal of heavy combat machinery, powerful enough to reduce fifty areas to ashes in an hour, and that's our leverage. It is a bargaining chip between us and the 'Phantom Star', and it is also a bargaining chip for the 'Phantom Star' and the committee afterwards. The Fallen Star is the core of the entire Great Triangular Nebula, and many unsightly things are here, and they will never dare to let this place be destroyed by us. β
Kane nodded heavily, then sighed, "It's a pity, if I were given a year, I could turn them into real soldiers." β
Yi Chen laughed: "It's not bad now, what else do we need? Do we really rely on them to fight the world here? We don't want to be the emperor of the world, everything is just messing with the people of the temple, we don't need to take it too seriously...... I wonder who the agent they're looking for in the Fallen Star is. β
After another three days, the committee was reorganized, and then in the middle of the night, when the men on all sides were exhausted from fighting and fell asleep, a large number of the committee's troops rushed into the place of the conflict, and began a massacre in a frenzy. Not only for the soldiers of the 'Silver Serpent' and the 'Witch', but also for all the civilians in the conflict zone. Because they can't be allowed to reveal who killed these people.
Countless bombs rained down on the heads of the soldiers of the 'Silver Snake' and 'Witch' gangs, one after another tanks caught fire and exploded, countless armored vehicles were torn to pieces, and the soldiers resting on the streets were simply engulfed in the raging flames in their sleep. The warplanes of the two gangs hovering in the air also fell one after another, and they collided indiscriminately on the ground, and large clouds of flames exploded in all directions, and thick smoke billowed everywhere, and one building after another suffered an unwarranted disaster.
After three hours, Kkesharu and they all surrendered, and they were immediately shot dead by the Commission's Warlord for violating the Council's peace order, killing hundreds of enemy soldiers and tearing them to pieces by heavy tank fire.
Only Musea, his army had withdrawn to the base, and with the cover of the base, he was frantically resisting. He had figured out one thing, and that was that the other twenty-five gangs were going to work together to eat their Silver Serpent and Witch powers. In the absence of a positive answer from the people of the temple, he had to resist for the sake of his own life. The committee was also in a dilemma for a while, and there was no way to kill Musea quickly without using large weapons, but if he used a destructive weapon, no one could stand it if Musea fought back on the verge of death, so the war was stalemate in Musea's stronghold.
Yi Chen, dressed in a black suit, drove towards the stronghold of the 'Phantom Star' with Phil and Gore in high spirits. Like the headquarters of the Witch, the base of the Phantom Star is built on an island in the middle of the lake. However, there are no bridges between the small island of the 'Phantom Star' and the six places, several large ferries are floating on the lake, and there are a group of small speedboats loaded with countless loaded men galloping back and forth on them, and there are hundreds of helicopter gunships circling around the island. After all, it was an extraordinary time, and the leader of the 'Phantasmary Star' was very careful about his own safety.
Phil carefully parked the car on the dock, and the three speedboats rushed over quickly, and more than a dozen soldiers in silver-blue uniforms rushed to the dock, shouting: "Get out of here, this is the private territory of the 'Phantom Star', and no outsiders are allowed to stay." β
Yi Chen smiled and bowed slightly, nodded and said, "Everyone, I came to visit Mr. StΓ©kars. β
A small leader looked at Yi Chen with a big grin and sneered, "It's up to you, you also want to see our boss, no, get out of the way, otherwise we have the right to kill you." The Governing Council has given us the power to take out all the people who are in the way of the eyes in these extraordinary times. β
Phil slowly put his hand on the railing of the dock, and then pressed it down lightly as if he didn't care, and there was a strange 'crunch', and the solid bowl mouth of the thick alloy railing was completely crushed, and a slap mark appeared clearly on the railing. No matter how you look at it, this hand can only be done by a high-strength alloy robot, and a human can't do it anyway.
Yi Chen let out a grin, and the little leader was already smiling: "Dear sir, you see, we can't let unknown people enter, otherwise we will lose our jobs." You don't seem like a big guy who can't be embarrassed by us little people, right? Maybe you have a letter of introduction or something? Hmm? We need a little bit of evidence to let you know. β
Yi Chen smiled and looked at Philfield's swarthy face, with a hint of a mocking smile on his swarthy face, looking at these soldiers with all their muzzles drooping with disdain. Yi Chen pretended to say, "Oh yes, yes, yes, there are four letters of introduction." One is for Miss Lintel, the First Honorary Sir of the Oster Empire, one for Lord Kolsnan, the Royal Secret Service of the Silver Star Empire, one for Mr. Faya, a great merchant whose name you should have heard, and the last one for Mr. Harvey, the Special Undersecretary of the Senk Federal Police, who, as far as I know, was once entertained alone by Mr. Stechalls. β
Yi Chen took out four letters of introduction written on gold, silver, bright red (the color of banknotes), and pink letterhead from his pocket, and stuffed them to the little leader, and stuffed a stack of banknotes into his hand. The little leader carefully examined the four letters, and could not help but be in awe, and then secretly looked at the denomination of the banknote in his bosom, his respect had been transformed into love and adoration.
He said eagerly, "Dear sir, please wait a little while and inform you of the ship, and you will be back at once." With that, he smiled and jumped into a speedboat and got into the cabin. Actually, the communicator on his wrist could convey the news, but he had to put the money in a safe place first, didn't he?
Three minutes later, Stexals's order came: "Please come in, respected Mr. Yi Chen." β
A helicopter sped up from the top of the island's buildings to the top of the dusty ones, and then slowly descended. Yi Chen, Phil, and Gore got into the engine room, and the helicopter flew back to the headquarters of the Phantom Star again.
With a fierce face, he looked no more than fifty years old, and the stout and sturdy Stekars with hundreds of subordinates actually stood on the roof of the building in person. Behind him were five old men in pale cyan robes, their eyes glittering between opening and closing, and it seemed that there were many monks in the Fallen Star who were willing to be used by these gang leaders.
Stekars didn't shake hands with Yi Chen, but stared at Phil behind Yi Chen with his eyes tightly before nodding and saying, "Black race?
Yi Chen laughed, "It's irrelevant, isn't it?, dear Mr. Stekars, I have something to talk about with you." Yi Chen naturally retracted his hand, without any embarrassment, although he wanted to draw his sword directly and cut off Stexals's head.
Steckars shook his head slightly: "No, I never want to waste time, dear Mr. Yi Chen, please tell me here what exactly you want to do." Wasting time is a very unethical thing. I see that on the face of those four letters of introduction, I made an exception to receive you, a person who has no status or fame in the Fallen Star, but that doesn't mean that I have to sit down and talk with you for an afternoon. β
Yi Chen clipped his cane under his armpit and applauded heavily: "Wonderful time is indeed precious, and your argument is very exciting." Of course, maybe it's because you're afraid that you don't have enough time to waste, right?"
The seven men behind Stekalls, who looked like senior leaders, stepped forward and were about to make a move. Stekals waved his hand to stop them, seemed to feel a little interesting, squeezed out a smile and said: "Of course, as human beings, we don't have enough time to waste, I have to think about a lot of things, I have to deal with a lot of things, I am not an idle person, although I enjoy it, but time is always not enough." β
Yi Chen shrugged his shoulders: "Yes, you have to think about how to make the 'Phantom Star' grow, don't you? It's a pity that you can't seize the opportunity this time." β
Sterkars's face twitched: "Oh?
Yi Chenyin looked at him with a smile and whispered, "You can't seize the opportunity to reshuffle the cards after the forces of the 'Silver Snake' and the 'Witch' are annihilated this time. The army you've gathered in the Fallen Star is only in seventh place, isn't it?, you'd love to improve your status, but you don't have the strength to do it all right. Oh my God, the new Chair and Vice-Chair will definitely not have your place. β
Stekalls was silent for a while, stretched out his hand to Yi Chen, and said, "Then welcome to the 'Phantom Star', maybe we should have a good talk, I hope you don't just talk about empty words." β
Yi Chen easily shook his hand and nodded, "Very correct, this is what a polite leader should do, the necessary etiquette is needed, even in the face of a street hooligan, I am very happy to shake his hand, because maybe he has information that we can't know." β
Ignoring the sarcasm in Yi Chen's words, Stekars led the way down a large elevator to the ground. After sinking about fifty meters underground, the upgrade and descent stopped. A corridor glowing blue appeared in the doorway. It is a passage that is half in direct contact with the lake and is cut off by heavy glass, so you can see the beautiful scenery of the bottom of the lake. There are about 200 frogmen with guns swimming back and forth in the water, mingling with the fish, which looks eerie and beautiful.
Yi Chen approved: "Good place...... Well, if the 'Phantom Star' suddenly has an extra 200,000 troops on the Fallen Star now, and then there is more support from the people of more than 20 districts, I don't know what the situation is, especially when the big leaders of some gangs suddenly die?"
Stekhals, who had just stepped on the passage, trembled all over, turned around a little hesitantly, and asked in a low voice, "Two hundred thousand troops?"
Yi Chen nodded silently and said with a smile: "200,000 fully armed, with an army equipped with trap heavy attack divisions, and there are more than 500 million residents in twenty-seven regions to support you, aha, this is a relatively large bargaining chip, isn't it? β
Stekhals silently leaned against the glass wall, bowing his head in deep thought. Yi Chen was not in a hurry, and slowly walked out of the door of the elevator and began to watch the swimming fish outside the glass wall.
Phil said in his naturally low and magnetic voice as Yi Chen instructed: "The reason why the Great Triangular Nebula can maintain its independence is not because of how strong their military strength is, but because the surrounding forces contain each other, isn't it? β
Gore said in a deep voice: "When your army is fighting the forces of the 'Silver Serpent' and 'Witch' with all its might, and to prevent the soldiers who have laid down their arms from mutiny, do they dare to take the risk of turning against a leader who has suddenly received reinforcements? β
Yi Chen looked at the fish outside with a smile and said, "Ah, big fish eat small fish, a group of small fish must unite to eat a big fish before they dare to eat a big fish." When the big fish is not dead, a small fish suddenly grows a little bigger, and then he says that he is going to become a more important leader, and who will oppose him?"
StΓ©kars remained silent. None of his subordinates and bodyguards in the elevator dared to speak.
"How is your full strength?" and "how can you cooperate with me?" and what conditions do you have?"
Yi Chen smiled: "Two hundred thousand heavily armed soldiers, about twenty times the number of ordinary gang members, control twenty-seven areas, including the more prosperous O19, O2O, O21 and several other areas. 2,000 heavy assault tanks, 5,000 troop transports, and armored vehicles, aren't they all good goods, and how about a few good friends? Of course, I can take care of taking out two or three more gang leaders on your head, and they'll mess up. β
"As for how to fight those leaders for power positions afterwards, that's your business, right?, I can provide a large amount of money, so that you can buy the remnants of the 'Silver Snake' and 'Witch' without touching the interests of the 'Phantom Star', so that our strength has increased a lot. β
Stekars said in a deep voice: "Your arms were provided to you by that guy from Faya, right? Except for him in the Fallen Star, few arms dealers have such a large inventory, hehe, this guy actually played with us. β
Yi Chen said lightly: "This is his investment, if he wins, I promise to charge him 8o% less in the future." β
Sterkars looked at Yi Chen seriously and asked him, "What is your request?"
Yi Chen rubbed his chin with the head of his cane, nodded and said, "Then I'm not welcome, among those leaders under you, I want to be the highest-ranking one, my 'Celestial Star' is merged into your 'Phantom Star', but I have the power to do what I like." Of course, I will not harm the interests of Phantom Star. β
Stekars laughed, "Do you think my subordinates are stupid?
Yi Chen nodded seriously: "If they are really powerful, why can't they dominate these areas and still have me, an outsider, do it?"
Stekars was silent for a while: "One of the rules of the committee is that the major gangs belonging to the committee are strictly forbidden to deal with those small local gangs. β
Yi Chen said fiercely: "Those who dare not break the rules will never be able to succeed." I'm not a member of the Great Triangular Nebula, but I dare to come to the Fallen Star to make trouble, and what about you? As the leader of a gang as big as the 'Phantom Star', wouldn't you dare to cross the thunder pool without realizing it? If I were you, the 'Phantom Star' would have been the No. 1 gang in the committee. β
Stekalls was stunned for a moment and snorted heavily: "Do you think I don't dare?"
Yi Chen's cane danced a circle of light: "Then you go for it, I fully support you, but you must get at least one vice chairman's seat, otherwise won't my investment be in vain?"
Stekhals suddenly smiled strangely: "Of course, but you said that you still have to kill a few gang leaders who are ranked ahead of me, can you do it? Maybe you don't know how strong the defenses around us are?"
Yi Chen lazily pointed at the five old men behind him and said indifferently: "Oh, isn't it just some monks? Well, the strength of the few around you is not weak, one of the three Yuan Infant condensed can change the Xuangong, and there is also one...... Well, you're about to face the last catastrophe, aren't you?It's so pitiful, if you can't dodge, you're going to be gone, and even if you dodge, you're going to leave this world of flowers...... I hope you haven't killed too many people in the past, otherwise you won't live long if the heavens are wrathed. β
The expressions of the five old men changed wildly, and they couldn't help but tremble. What do they think of Yi Chen, the three of them are not like people with any cultivation, how can they say their cultivation level so clearly? Especially the old guy who is about to face the catastrophe trembles in his heart, and he doesn't know how to say it, remembering his master's admonition, and then thinking about his actions in the last thousand years, he is covered in cold sweat and flowing wildly.
Yi Chenyin smiled and said: "So, Mr. Stekars, you should believe that I have enough ability to clean up those people, well, maybe my strength is not very strong, but I have strong enough masters under me, I firmly believe that they can ensure that our interests and our will are completely safeguarded." β
Stekars was silent again for a while, nodded silently, stretched out his hand, and said, "So who are we now?"
Yi Chen laughed: "How about a temporary ally? If things work out, I'm happy to be a small leader under your subordinates." β
Stekars took a long breath: "If you can take out them, then you should be able to kill me, why cooperate with me?"
Yi Chen thought for a moment and nodded lightly and said, "Of course, but I have other things to do, if I really unify the Great Triangle Nebula, what good will it do to me? Yi Chen gently shook Sturkars' hand.
The two shook it heavily, and Sterkars said solemnly: "A word?"
Yi Chen said simply: "Of course." The hands of the two of them quickly let go, and both of them smiled at the same time.
Yi Chen said in a loud voice: "Then the first target is ......"
Sterkars said gloomily: "I have not been used to seeing the leader of the 'evil scorpion' for a long time...... Can you promise me, let him die as miserably as possible. β
Yi Chen nodded silently, revealing a grim smile, which made Stekars and the five old men tremble slightly......
(New Year's greetings to all my friends who like my books, I wish you all a happy new year, good luck, good health, and Ryoma spirit)
