Chapter 299 Upheaval
Three days later, a small airship landed on the tarmac of Ugal Castle. The hawk-type frigate was painted with the fog and fire logo, but it was Koba who arrived with the mercenaries hired by Allen.
Allen was notified in advance and waited on the apron with his core team early in the morning. Regis and Lucy stood on both sides of Allen, and behind him were Willick and Bloy who returned from the surface. Today will be the day when the old and new members gather. Bloy is expressionless, while Willick is looking forward to it, and even wants to compete with the newcomers.
The spaceship is parked and the deck is lowered. Koba got out of the hatch first, and he laughed loudly: "Master Allen, I kept you waiting. It's really hard to find a vacation place for these guys, and they almost smashed their own signboards. "
Koba jumped off the deck and shouted inside: "Get off, boys. Be good to me, don't lose face to our trade union."
"I heard that, your voice is really loud, every time it makes your ears hurt." A man got out from inside. He was wearing a long trench coat and carrying a silver suitcase. Wearing sunglasses, a golden skull stud on the ear canal reflects the morning sun. He raised his glasses and tied his bangs on his forehead like a hair band. It was Belmode who was agile and good at assassination and spying.
Keba snorted, "When you arrive in Outland, you will miss Lao Tzu's wonderful voice. Because such a voice can only be heard on Earth."
Belmode tilted his head and said, "Come on, it's not like I haven't been to Outland, don't make me look like a bumpkin... Hey..."
He staggered suddenly and almost fell off the deck. Belmode turned sideways and shouted: "Damn Roy, why are you hitting me from behind? Are you trying to make me look ugly?"
He yelled, but jumped to the ground, obviously Belmode didn't want to be hit again. A tower-like figure emerged from behind him, with short, strong hair pointing to the sky like steel thorns, and the light gray eyes on Fang Zheng's serious face looked at his companion intentionally or unintentionally. The man with the black hammer in one hand said without sincerity: "I'm sorry, but you shouldn't stand in front of me."
"Won't you make a detour!" Belmode protested.
Roy walked down and said, "Detour? What is that?"
"One barbarian!" Belmode gritted his teeth.
Bloy, who was standing behind Allen, suddenly smiled, and Willick frowned and said, "Big man, why are you smiling so weirdly?"
Bloy's eyes fell on Roy's warhammer, and he said, "Look, he uses the same weapon as me. He really wants to compete with me."
"Don't get excited all of a sudden,
Keep calm, we are seniors! said Willick, patting his chest.
The last ones to get off the spaceship were a pair of twin brothers.
Tang Ji and Tang Mo, Orientals, they look almost exactly the same. The slight difference is that there is a mole that is almost invisible under the corner of Tang Ji's eye. Both of them are dressed in black clothes, and the airships are lined up side by side, with their hands behind their backs. The standing posture is sturdy, and people dare not ignore it. Their combat strength is only level 15, but according to the information provided by Koba, the two brothers, because of their spiritual connection, joined forces to fight against the enemy, no matter if the opponent was one or more. The two are proficient in the art of joint attack, even if it is Roy or Belmode, they are not willing to face these two brothers alone unless necessary.
After the mercenaries disembarked from the spaceship, Koba stepped forward and handed a printed contract to Alan, and the handover was completed. Koba said: "Then, these guys will be handed over to you, Master Allen."
Allen nodded and stepped forward. He swept across the four of them, and said with his hands behind his back: "You should all know my identity, but let me introduce myself."
"I'm Alan, and I'm your employer from today. After the planet is coded, our hunting group will go to Outland. The contract period is three years. After three years, you can leave according to your own judgment, or renew the contract." .Although it is an employment relationship, I hope that you can be integrated into the hunting group. If you perform well, you will be the backbone talents I need. Bethkind has always been generous with talents. Then you will find , stay by my side, and earn more than mercenaries."
"My hunting group doesn't have too many rules, there is only one insurmountable. That is betrayal!" Alan's chest straightened up a little, and his whole body immediately gave birth to a cold breath. The surrounding air seemed to have become a little drier. Belmode licked his lips subconsciously, and the Tang brothers had a few beads of sweat on their foreheads. Only Roy's expression remained the same. Alan saw it in his eyes, and had a better understanding of the strength of the few people. He said lightly: "Once you choose to betray, then pray. Pray that you will not be hit by me. By then, you will find that death is the best thing to do." fate."
Allen held back his breath and put on a gentle smile: "As long as you are my companions, no matter what the situation is, I will not give up on you. Otherwise, you can use all means to take revenge on me."
Belmode put down his suitcase, applauded and said: "Master Allen, it seems that you will be a good boss. It is a great honor to serve you, and I will try my best to be the companion you agree with."
He stretched out his hand to Allen, but a cold dagger suddenly rested on his neck. Belmode's smile froze, while Alan said with a smile: "I heard Mr. Koba say it, Belmode. It's a pity that I'm not used to carrying my wallet with me. And if there is a next time, I will will chop off your claws."
Belmode's other hand had reached Alan's waist at some point, but at this moment he had to withdraw awkwardly, and he whistled: "Boss, you are really alert."
"Of course, because I don't have much money." Allen took back the devil's praise, and said, "Come with me, before I leave, I arranged a few rooms for you in the castle."
In the castle study, Horn looked back. Next to him, Mr. Haixin brought him a cup of black tea: "Master Alan has recruited some good companions."
"Well, the Wuhuo union's work is of some quality, and they didn't prevaricate anyone casually, so they know how to do it." Horn said with a smile.
"I heard that the mercenary agent named Koba is a friend of Master Leon. Last time Master Leon went to war, he also selected a few people from him."
"Leon, it turned out to be that kid." Horn laughed: "This kid did a good job. He deliberately created a situation that was not conducive to him, but he brought out many guys who had hidden deep enough. There is a trick .”
"Speaking of scheming, Master Alan is not far behind in this regard." Hai Xin said.
Horn nodded in agreement: "But Allen took another way, you can tell by looking at his knife. When it comes to scheming, let alone Leon, he is worse than the goblin of the Mosen family. But Ai Lun's domineering and direct will eventually open up another world for him. I think this is more or less influenced by that little woman in Windsor Bello."
"That's right, that marshal always likes to act recklessly." Butler Hai Xin chuckled a few times.
Horn put away the smile on his face: "Compared to this, it seems that something big is going to happen tomorrow."
"Yes, my lord, it has been confirmed. Tomorrow, the Gate of Liberty will hold a peace talk with President Morbit in Babylon."
Horn looked out the window and sighed: "I have a hunch that this meeting will not go so smoothly. After all, there is no news from Alstair yet."
Early the next morning, the Statue of Liberty Harbor was overcrowded. In order to welcome the head of Freedom Gate and create a friendly atmosphere, the Federation organized a grand welcoming ceremony. A welcome group composed of more than ten thousand residents of Babylon arrived at the port early. Everyone held flowers and smiled, making sure to achieve the best publicity effect.
After several consecutive meetings, the Federal Cabinet voted to adopt a proposal to deal with the Freedom Gate incident peacefully. Among them, in addition to the majority of officials from the Peace Faction, it is also because the interstellar defense line has not had a moment of peace in the past two years. Under various pressures, President Morbit, who has always been vigorous and decisive, also adopted this relatively moderate policy.
It's just that everyone who understands knows that it is impossible to solve the problem of floating islands and the surface through one meeting. But at least it's off to a good start.
Today is a fine day, and the sky over Babylon is a clear blue. Everyone waited eagerly, and finally a mana airship marked with the Gate of Liberty and two rows of frigates with the federal army in charge of security measures arrived.
This airship fleet appeared from the distant sky, quickly expanded in people's eyes, and headed towards the direction of the Statue of Liberty. When they were about to reach the sky over the port, people had already started cheering, and some even threw bouquets into the sky. The bouquet spread out, and the delicate flowers drifted down with the wind.
But at this moment, a row of conspicuous fire belts suddenly appeared in the sky. When he saw this row of fire belts, Morbit, who was standing at the port with a smile on his face, suddenly changed his expression. The drastic change happened suddenly, and several frigates on the right side of the fleet were hit straight, exploded in the air, and turned into several fireballs. Metal fragments from the explosion flew in all directions with flames, and the crowd on the port froze for a moment, then screamed in shock.
In an instant, the port was in chaos.
Seeing that something was wrong, the spaceship at the Gate of Freedom turned around and left. At this moment, one of the airships acting as the escort suddenly left the team. The high-energy cannon on the airship flashed several times, and several blue electric fires pierced through the air, hitting the tail engine of the Gate of Liberty airship.
Amidst the bang, the airship exploded. In the slowly rising fireball, huge spaceship parts were constantly entangled in flames and fell downward. The flames even illuminated the faces of the people in the port, and even made Mobit's face uncertain. The officials next to him were all pale, as long as they were not stupid, they would know what this meant.
No matter who the attacker was, the airship of the Gate of Liberty was blown up, and ten of the people inside died and nine survived. There is no room for maneuver between the Federation and them, and the rest can only be an all-out war!
