Behind a hidden meteorite belt outside the lighthouse star, the fast airship carrying Anthony completed the connection with the transport ship bearing the emblem of a second-rate family.
Philip and Director Lando of the Family Affairs Administration stood side by side outside the transparent wall, watching Anthony being taken into the energy cage room and fixed to a safety seat.
"The handover is complete. Now I am yours. Oh, I will leave these seventh-level ability users in the Guard for you. Just let them come back when they are in their place." Philip said to the affairs director Lando who came to take over in person, "I know that the attendants The room must have explained to you, but I still have to convey it again - the master's order is to secretly take this person away from the lighthouse star, but not to hurt his life."
Director Lando nodded slightly: "I understand."
Philip then immediately offered to bid farewell to the annoying bureaucrats in the chamber.
The secretary-general wanted Philip to leave quickly, and of course he would not keep him. As soon as he heard that Philip was leaving, he immediately greeted him. Although the farewell etiquette is grand and warm enough, in reality it is similar to sending off the god of plague, which is to rush him away.
Such an eager attitude disgusted Philip's attendants. As soon as they returned to the airship, they couldn't help but said: "You shouldn't hand over people right away, young master. Lando is rushing you away just to monopolize him." Credit. If he can pry open that man's mouth later and get something, it will be a great achievement for Master David - he will definitely pry open that man's mouth and get something. You shouldn't take this opportunity like this Leave it to him.”
Philip disagreed very much: "I can't commit the crime of taking their credit."
The attendant was speechless. Philip had been his servant since he was a child. He was good at everything, but he was young and energetic, and acted too naively. How can we not take the credit? The space around the master is limited, but the number of people rushing to show their face in front of the master is endless. This is a matter of if you are weak, the other will be strong. Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind. It doesn't seem to matter now. Master Philip's position with Master David is stable enough that no one can shake it yet. But if he always acts like this and doesn't think about performance, he won't get much credit, but instead asks his master to often make plans for him. Then what he has accumulated since childhood will No matter how deep the friendship is, sooner or later it will wear out.
The worried expression of the attendant amused Philip.
"Don't be so sad, Curly Hair." He called himself the nickname of the attendant, and said, "I'm not one of those guys in the attendant's room. There's no need for you to hate me."
"David's chamber is full of bastards like Lando who were born slaves. They climbed to their current position only by trying their best to please David and make themselves more useful. So they want to do something in this matter. I'm not surprised at all. It's just like a dog. The owner only remembers to take a look at the dog when it barks. But I'm not a dog, so I can't bark like a dog. Besides, David didn't tell them to bark, and they behaved like this. If you bark like crazy, you might get a bone if you bark well, but if you don't bark well, you won't get kicked."
The curly-haired servant couldn't help but be stunned: How could he wait for his master's explicit instructions to do everything? It is necessary to understand the superior intention and act according to the master's thoughts first. Of course, if you do something right, you may not have merit, but if you do something wrong, you must have a fault. But if you don’t do it, what’s the use of you to the master?
"All those acolytes who say you are full of intrigues think the problem is simple," Philip was in the excitement of successfully capturing Anthony. He was very chatty and he was his close acolyte, so he couldn't help but say a few more words. : "You don't know David well enough, let alone the earth girl. David's attitude means that he has real feelings for the earth girl, and he can't let go in this life. Even the earth girl is so fierce that she dares to write to David Breakup letter. She will not let it go until today's matter is revealed. Once it is revealed, she will never let it go. There is a big conspiracy behind Anthony, involving Mars and Lord Maximilian of the Earth Temple. Now he is arrested , but he will definitely be released for use in the future. Since he is going to come out, it is impossible to completely cover up the matter. Sooner or later, the earth girl must be informed. It is one thing for the earth girl not to want that person. Losing your temper. Making a big fuss is another thing. In the future, when the earth girl makes a big fuss and settles old scores, she will kill a few people to vent her anger. You said that if I reach out to hang out with Landu and the others now, I am not taking the initiative. Are you going to take the blame and take this scapegoat into your hands? Of course, I don’t believe that David will kill me, but it will be a headache to let the earth girl hold a grudge - I know the character of the earth girl very well, With my identity, she definitely doesn’t hold grudges against others but only toward me, otherwise she wouldn’t be a country girl. It’s up to Lando Hebrew and others to do what they like. Do I have a relationship with them and do I have to take the blame for them?
The curly-haired servant was full of curses and thought to himself: "So you are a young master. Who dares not to take the pot if the owner wants it to be carried? Do you think Mr. Lando doesn't know the danger? Wealth can be gained through danger! Let's do it Isn’t that what it’s all about—forget it, a young man like you will never understand.”
Phillip looked at the boring meteorites floating outside the porthole and yawned a little boredly: "I'm going to take a nap and tell them to hurry up. There's a banquet waiting in the Lighthouse Star Manor. If you leave for too long, you will be easily suspected. - David Today He must be in a bad mood tonight, we will go to the mansion to report to him early tomorrow morning."
So the airship accelerated away from the meteorite belt and returned to the lighthouse star. At the same time, a transport ship bearing the emblem of a second-rate family also set sail at the same time, sailing in the opposite direction away from the Exile Star Territory.
On the transport ship, David Duran's family affairs director faced the people inside the transparent wall, his eyes flashed with the cold light before a wild beast hunts, and then immediately returned to his calm gentlemanly demeanor. Each department reported one after another that everything was normal in the energy cage. Lando straightened his clothes, then raised his hand to open the cell door and walked in.
The layout in the cage is not bad, at least on the surface it looks no different from an ordinary noble lounge. The safety chair in which Anthony was imprisoned was a high-backed chair with a velvet cushion, allowing him to move his limbs freely except when he had to sit on it. There was even wine that suited his taste on the table at hand.
After all, this person has a use, if he is willing to recognize the situation, and they don't want to make things too ugly. But of course it doesn't matter if he doesn't want to recognize faces. From the perspective of Landu's personal style, he doesn't like working in a gloomy and terrifying dark prison. Then while abusing others, it is basically self-abuse. In comparison, he still prefers bright and luxurious places. He prefers to conquer and break those noble people in this kind of aristocratic room, crush their self-esteem, and watch those who were once high and high fall into the dust, and the humble and miserable people writhe and moan at his feet.
Antony evidently refused to recognize the face or to recognize it immediately, and he continued to sit in his high-backed chair like a truly great man, as calmly and casually as he had always done before. There he sat, still the same being who stood above all kingly power before tonight. He turned a blind eye to Lando's arrival and didn't care, even allowing him to take a look at the compass held by Lando. From him, Landu could not see any panic or panic. But Landu didn't care, and even secretly scorned and laughed. He had seen too many ability users who were still calm and energetic when they first entered the energy cage. To try to maintain their composure at this time would only show their stupidity and weakness. In just a few minutes, he can tear off the paint on their faces. Regardless of whether they are capable people, nobles, or other noble people, he will soon make them crawl and beg for mercy like the meanest slaves.
"Does he think he is still the same potential?" Lando thought scornfully.
He sat across from Anthony, put the compass on the table, and smiled at Anthony.
"Nice to meet you, Sir Anthony. I, Lando, am a nobody worth mentioning. I am accompanying you on this trip." He introduced himself like this, and then asked: "Your Excellency, you want to know where we are going." Place?"
Anthony said "Oh", as if he had just seen Lando, and asked calmly: "Where are we going?"
"A slave camp, hundreds of light years away from the Lighthouse Star." Lando smiled, "Don't ask where the slave camp is or which family it belongs to, it's the same."
"Oh?" Anthony looked at Lando and suddenly became interested in the little man in front of him. He could tell that this man was David Duran's senior attendant and should be his family's chief of affairs. He has had so many attendants in his life that he can't even count them. He has also had several family ministers. He can be said to be very familiar with these people, but he has never seen any of them from this perspective. The attendant looked at Samanda from a completely level or even upward angle. They always lowered their eyes and heads in front of him. They would never stand up when they could kneel. Their tone and expression were all humble and obedient. Even when they were objecting, this humility and obedience could penetrate into the smallest tremor of the last voice. . If there is any difference between servants, it is only in humility and devotion. He rarely looked at his attendants before, and often couldn't remember their names, but today he looked at the attendants from a new perspective, even looking up, and he suddenly noticed the expressions on their faces. The expressions are so lively and interesting.
Lando was irritated by Anthony's scrutinizing and probing eyes, and felt quite insulted and provoked, although Anthony actually had no intention of provoking. His tone remained unchanged and he continued: "We think that you currently lack understanding of your identity and need to learn from scratch. I think in that slave camp, you will learn how to be a slave?"
"Learn to be a slave?" Anthony's voice paused, and then he said in a strange welcoming tone, "I am indeed very interested in this. Where should we start? Frankly speaking, I really don't know anything about this. familiar."
Lando's smile widened even more. "There's no need to rush," he said. "We can start now, starting with what you most urgently need to learn."
