Green Continent, Lan Kingdom's temporary palace.
"Your Majesty, Xi Fei has left."
In front of the throne, Lanster nodded and stood.
"Did you fail?" Joan Malan looked up at the ceiling with a calm tone.
"Failed." Lanster looked gloomy. Qi Fei was an old man in the Storm Mercenary Group. He had joined the group since its founding. After ten years of ups and downs, he had become like a family member.
"Is that person hosting it?" Joan Malan asked again.
"Yes..." Lanster clenched his fists, looking a little annoyed, "If I had known this, I shouldn't have let that guy go!"
"Now do you finally know the danger he is in? I have always told you that he must die, otherwise he will become a stumbling block on our way forward." Joan Malan said.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for your stupidity!" Lanster knelt down, lowered his head, and looked like he was willing to accept the punishment.
"Please get up, my dear friend." Joan Malan stood up and helped Lanster up. "What is in the past is in the past, and regrets will not change anything."
"The key is..." He paused, "What to do in the future."
"What I'm really worried about is that he can promote the union of the North and the South, so..." Joan Malan grabbed the shoulder of his best friend forcefully and said in a deep voice, "He must die!"
Chen Xing was previously reused by the Golden-Eyed Witch to form an expeditionary force. Later, he went to Ice Blue City and gained the favor of Da Bichi.
He settled the demon mother and daughter at the same time, which meant that he had the basis to bring both parties together for negotiations.
"I understand!" Lanster nodded, "I will lobby other countries to send assassins to nip all possible dangers in the cradle."
If Chen Xing can promote the unity of the North and the South, and Aaliyah and Trilis join forces, it will be a nightmare for the whole world. Perhaps by then, not even the Holy Angel Legion of the Holy Light Church will be able to suppress it.
No country is willing to see such a result. As long as the interests are clearly stated, I believe they will be willing to make some efforts to solve this potential danger.
Of course, the probability of this is very slim. With the way the mother and daughter hate each other endlessly, it is difficult to imagine that they would sit down and negotiate because of a man.
However, during the Silver Claw War, Chen Xing's military and political talents have come to the fore. If he is allowed to develop, he will one day become a serious problem for the Lan Kingdom.
As we all know, demon mothers have changeable temperaments and are cruel and unkind. They are not good rulers of the country, but if they have a smart head, they will be killed.
"My dearest friend, the Grand Duke of Lan Kingdom..." Joan Malan looked at the handsome young man in front of him and said with true feelings, "In the days to come, I will become more and more dependent on you, so please pay attention. For my own safety, I still need your company..."
"Is there something wrong with cultivation?" Lanster's face changed and he asked with concern.
Although swallowing demon crystal cores can quickly increase strength, it will lead to serious side effects such as violent temperament and decreased intelligence.
"I always feel inexplicably angry and manic lately, as if there is a fire burning in my heart, wanting to destroy everything and destroy everything."
"My patience is getting worse and worse. Sometimes I can't think about problems at all. Maybe before long, I will become a madman."
The young prince covered his forehead and shook his head slightly, looking a little frustrated.
"My king..." Lanster called softly and stepped forward to put his hand on his best friend's shoulder. "You should stop..." he advised softly, "rest for a while and then think of other ways. The sky is the limit." There is always a solution in the way of human beings.”
Lanster's voice became gentler and gentler, "Just like us before, form the Storm Legion, acquire the land of Green Continent, develop step by step, and become stronger..."
"No, I can't stop!"
As if being stimulated by something, Joan Malan's emotions suddenly burst out, her voice trembling, "This, this is our only choice!"
"Only strength can regain everything lost!"
A layer of red light appeared in his eyes, and his expression became extremely ferocious. Joan Malan scratched her forehead hard, as if she had a splitting headache.
"I am the only one left to protect the thousand-year glory of the Malan royal family!"
Joan Malan shook her head excitedly and roared, "I cannot fail, I must not fail!"
"Calm down!" Lanster raised his voice, "If you continue like this, your life mark will be infected by the devil and eventually replace it!"
"The Joanne Malan of yesteryear will no longer exist!"
The scolding from his best friend made Joan Malan gradually calm down. After being quiet for a long time, he murmured to himself, "I can't care about so much anymore..."
"Your life is not just your own. You also want to marry a beautiful queen who will give birth to an heir for you and continue the family's bloodline."
"You know..." Joan Malan raised her head and stared at the sapphire eyes in front of her, "I will never marry and have children, never..."
"Leave the matter of continuing the bloodline to the Second Emperor Brother." Joan Malan looked up at the dome, his eyes becoming firmer, "My mission is to regain everything I lost, that's all..."
"My king..." Lanster held the hand of the lonely king, his eyes equally firm, "When you fall into the abyss, remember to hold me."
Just when the monarch and his ministers were showing their true feelings and expressing their hearts and souls, the security office of Ice Blue City was in a state of panic.
It took Bai Yeliufang, the most popular new official, to formulate hundreds of assessment requirements in just one night.
The deadline is one month, and everyone from patrol police to supervisors and security directors must take part in the assessment. Once they fail the assessment, they will be kicked out of the security system.
At the same time, she also announced the bombshell news that the Security Department was reorganized into the Ice Blue City Guards, as well as a series of expansions in staff and budget increases.
The security department suddenly exploded.
Everyone knows that this is a huge crisis, but also a huge opportunity.
If you fail the assessment, you will be kicked out; if you pass the assessment, you will be promoted and make a fortune. A heaven, a hell.
"Anyone who passes the assessment will have his salary increased three times, and his original position and military rank will be promoted one level each. Anyone who fails the assessment will be immediately disarmed, his police badge will be withdrawn, and he will go to the Human Resources Department to complete the resignation procedures..."
After reading the red-headed document, the deputy commissioner of the police, who weighed 200 kilograms, silently moved out the dusty treadmill and started running desperately.
In just three days, he lost ten kilograms.
Because everyone knows that the fateful moment has arrived. Whether you will be successful or go away in despair, it all depends on this month.
The Deputy Commissioner of Police collapsed from running and collapsed on the treadmill, foaming at the mouth. His words before falling into coma have become a classic.
"This woman is so good at tormenting people, she is really a female king of hell!"
As a result, the nickname "Female King of Hell" spread among the security system.
Fragrant in the white night, the female king of hell in the Ice Blue City.
That afternoon, Chen Xingxiang was drinking tea and reading information in the office as usual. Things were progressing smoothly, and all plans were going according to plan.
Sixty percent of the infiltration work at Tianqin Castle has been completed, and it will be completely completed in another week and a half.
He will leave in a week, follow the last group of personnel to sneak into Tianqin Castle, and directly command the sneak attack.
The battlefield was changing rapidly. He made a big bet and had to make sure nothing went wrong.
Once the sneak attack fails, the Cuilis camp will be severely damaged and will be unable to fight again for at least a year.
According to Bai Yeliu Fang, the Tian Qin puppet master is an unstable factor because he can suppress powerful men of the same level. And his tactical satellites and long-range capabilities happen to restrain the Puppeteer to a certain extent, so he should be present.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, Dr. B1 of Heque Principality requests to meet."
While thinking, the guard came in to report.
"Invite him in." Chen Xing left his desk and went to the door to greet him.
Although he is the prime minister, he still needs to maintain sufficient courtesy to his loyal supporters.
Dr. b1 is still the same as the last time we met. He is sitting in a wheelchair, wearing a white coat, and has deep wrinkles on his face.
"Welcome!"
Dr. b1 held Chen Xing's extended hand with a smile on his face, "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your reception."
"Would you like some tea or coffee?"
"Black tea, as you get older, consuming too much caffeine will affect your health." Dr. b1 said.
"Xiao Yang, serve tea."
Xiao Yang soon brought tea and refreshments.
"The Prime Minister's office is quite unique."
"you flatter me."
Chen Xing and Dr. B1 sat at the small round table, drinking tea and chatting. Dr. b1 today seemed particularly polite and talkative, and even commented on the ancient oil paintings in Chen Xing's office.
"Doctor took the time to come here today. Is there anything I need to do?" Chen Xing asked proactively. As a man of three generations, he knew that when people who usually don't talk much say kind words, they must be asking for something.
"It's really a little something..."
As Dr. b1 spoke, he took out a roll of drawings from under the wheelchair, asked Xiao Yang to take the tea set and snacks, and spread them out on the small round table.
It was a design drawing for a human being, with many details.
"Sir, this is the preliminary design of the x8-type modified human, which uses bionic joints, ceramic buffering bulletproof armor, and a bioelectrical signal transmission system..."
Dr. b1 introduced each item one by one. Although Chen Xing didn't quite understand, it was clear what the other person wanted to do.
Just here to ask for money!
Chen Xing patiently listened to the introduction for more than half an hour. In fact, it can be summed up in one sentence. The x8 type modified human is more advanced than the x7 type.
"Sir, we need scientific research funds for new projects." After waiting for more than half an hour, Dr. B1 finally revealed the purpose that Chen Xing had already seen through.
"How much does it cost?" Chen Xing asked straight to the point.
"Eighty million gold coins." Dr. B1 said.
"That's it..." Chen Xing groaned.
Normally, he might have agreed. The Heque Principality supported him unconditionally and gave him the main force in one sentence. Who wouldn't like such an obedient subordinate?
But now is a war period, and conducting this kind of experimental research will not have much significance for the subsequent war.
"Doctor, you also know that we are at war and military expenditures are very tight." Chen Xing did not beat around the bush and directly explained the reason. For a science guy like Dr. B1, beating around the bush will only lead to misunderstanding.
"This..." Dr. B1's expression was stiff and he hesitated to speak.
Chen Xing stretched out his hand to indicate that he should finish speaking first.
"I agree to conduct some research, but it is best if it is helpful for the next war, such as this..."
Chen Xing opened the storage space, took out the future version of Scar that he had previously exchanged from the "Mirror of Reality", and handed it to Dr. B1.
Although the main research direction of the Heque Principality is to transform humans, transformed humans also have weapon systems, so Dr. B1 also knows a lot about firearms.
Dr. B1 soon discovered what was special about this gun, and asked with a shocked face, "Sir, this gun, where did this gun come from!"
Because he was too excited, Dr. B1 stuttered a little, "Its production process is completely different from what we know. Look at this gun, the metal texture is completely different from our stamping technology!"
"I picked it up in a world fragment. I can't remember the details." Chen Xing was vague. He didn't intend to reveal the secret of the Mirror of Truth, and then said, "I will allocate 30 million for you." Research funding to achieve mass production.”
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Dr. B1 was polishing the gun body of the future version of SACR, and he was completely obsessed.
Dr. b1 then took apart the gun body and studied it for a while, and told Chen Xing that it would take about three months to complete the research.
Chen Xing is not in a hurry. If it can be commercialized, he will give Bai Yeliufang's garrison equipment a trial.
The future version of Scar is a dual-purpose assault and sniper automatic rifle. Compared with existing assault rifles, it has a longer range and greater power, and can improve a lot of combat effectiveness.
If it doesn't work, 30 million gold coins will be lost, which can be regarded as supporting the economy of the Heque Principality.
"How much money do we have on our account?"
After Dr. b1 left, Chen Xing called Guihu over.
"The original account is 735 million gold coins."
"The budget for new recruits is 20 million, the budget for Operation Trojan is 7 million, the budget for the garrison is 50 million, the budget for the Principality is 30 million, and the budget for miscellaneous expenses..."
"The balance at the end of this month is expected to be 618 million gold coins."
After listening to the report, Chen Xing thought to himself. He spent more than 100 million in just a few months. It seems that the money is not very durable. He must capture the Tianqin Principality as soon as possible and loot it.
