Walk alone in the abyss

When going back, Yang Ming didn't encounter any resistance.

The empire's fleet didn't do anything to stop it. The nationwide official live broadcast room and tens of billions of online viewers watched Yang Ming's mech enter a 100-meter-long transport ship, and then jumped away.

The Dongfeng Ship was not directly shown, because it was worried that the violent appearance of the Dongfeng Ship would irritate the imperial military.

When Gris was being interviewed, Yang Ming was wearing earphones, listening to a passionate ditty with a clear rhythm, twisting his strong waist, unscrupulously releasing his masculine charm, and walking to his captain's seat.

"The captain arrived... eh?"

Wearing a tight combat uniform, 026 tilted his head and looked at Boss Yang's back, and couldn't help but mutter to the life-sized projection assistant beside him:

"I haven't seen the boss for a few days, why is the boss so coquettish all of a sudden?"

When necessary, 026 will drive the Chigui mecha to support Yang Ming.

Li smiled and said, "He always does this when he's happy."

"Uh," 026 blinked, "Did I miss the live broadcast just now? Why is the boss so happy?"

"In the end, some parts of the boss battle were edited," Li reminded. "The live broadcast also has a set delay. Instead of showing the screen directly, a part is deleted."

"Then why is the boss so happy?"

Lv raised his hand to his forehead, and was a little embarrassed to say it for a while: "Probably because we have made substantial progress with Catherine's captain."

"That's it?" 026 tilted his head and said, "When the boss fell in love, I never saw him so excited."

Law analyzed it carefully: "It's not so much that the boss feels relaxed and happy now because of Captain Catherine, it's better to say that the relationship between the white ghost and the official empire has entered a honeymoon period."

026 didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Law laughed and said:

"Now the Empire officials feel that they have tamed the white ghost named Hanton, which is a glorious victory for the Emperor Star.

"As for the boss, he feels that he has gained part of the trust of the empire, and the pressure from the Valkyrie has been reduced by half. The boss is most worried about the alliance between the Valkyrie and the Empire.

"We set off from Luofeng to look for opportunities within the empire, and it has been smooth sailing until now, and we have encountered several small crises that have been resolved safely.

"Probably now, the imperial officials think that the white ghost is nothing more than that, and the boss thinks that these old things in the empire are a bunch of waste, so on the surface it has entered the honeymoon period of the relationship."

026 was a little afraid to answer: "Is your analysis so...so realistic?"

"Hee hee, the boss can't hear it again!"

"Boss! I want to report!"

"Okay you! I have a simulated touch on the Dongfeng!"

026 put his hands on his chest and hurriedly dodged, holding up two claws of law that trembled like seaweed, and launched an offensive on 026 at Mount Anlu.

Seeing the two of them making a fuss in the corner, Yang Ming was also filled with emotion.

Their relationship is really good.

"Stop making trouble! Hahaha! Don't tickle me! Surrender!"

Lv pinches his waist and laughs: "I can't cure you yet!"

"Okay, let's get down to business." 026 sat down on the sofa and asked in a low voice, "Then when do you think we can go back to the wind? I kind of miss the snack street over there."

"This is hard to say."

Lu sat back beside 026, his feet swaying slightly.

She said slowly: "There are several irreconcilable conflicts between the boss and the empire. When these hidden thunders are triggered, the boss is likely to abandon the empire directly."

026 is unclear, so: "What dark thunder?"

Lu smiled and said: "Luofeng and Dark Star are now a system, the outer shell is the Luofeng Empire, a medium-sized country, and the inner is the Dark Star built by the mechanical thinking body, which is an omnic system that can be easily commanded by the boss alone.

"Luofeng is developing rapidly now, and the three small countries around Luofeng have settled the military and political circles, and they can be annexed by Luofeng in the form of an alliance at any time.

"Although the boss doesn't care whether the Luofeng Empire is a subsidiary of the Sherman Empire, don't forget that the boss's close friend and close partner, Edwan, is wholeheartedly seeking the independent reform of Luofeng.

"Do you think that the empire will allow the largest small tributary country to be substantively independent? This is the first major contradiction."

026 frowned and said, "The national strength of the Sherman Empire is hundreds of times that of Luofeng. There is no chance of winning."

"That's right," Lv Tut tutted with a smile, "Even if the technological level can catch up to the level of God's star circle in a short period of time, the population is still flawed. It will take at least a dozen breeding cycles, that is, hundreds of years, for Luofeng to have more than a hundred years. With a population of 100 million, this is the premise that the social economy has been maintained in a state of neither good nor bad, and Luofeng people can maintain a strong willingness to have children."

"Then how can you be independent?"

"Expand the alliance, find allies, and cooperate with the empire in the name of the alliance," Lu said indifferently, "If you don't rely on war to seek independence, then the relationship between Luofeng and the Sherman Empire will inevitably be abnormal in the future. It will depend on the boss's choice at that time." Bar."

026 analyzed it carefully for a while: "This dark mine, shouldn't be triggered in a short time, right?"

"It can't be said in a short period of time. Probably as long as the boss passes the second assessment, Luofeng will be able to form an alliance with a population of more than 20 billion."

Lv casually clicked on a map of Luofeng's star field, enlarged the map, ignored the vast uninhabited planets in proportion, and marked more than 30 small and medium-sized countries.

Law said softly:

"Dabic's model has been considered the most efficient model for conquering these small regimes.

"Look at this corner of the Milky Way, the thirty-six countries that are relatively close to Luofeng are all the expansion targets of the Luofeng Alliance.

"The reason can be found at will, for example, in order to deal with the pest disaster, so the regional alliance.

"Of course, if Luofeng wants to maintain the status of the leader, it is not enough to control the military and politics of these small countries. Luofeng's technology companies have established advantages in the region and can share some technology patents. Dark Star will continue to improve Luofeng's Technological level, keep the head in the leading position.

"Such an overall combination only needs to be stable for more than fifty years to really establish a large political system."

"However," 026 was a little suspicious, "If you keep using Dabic's model and let the mechanical thinking body replace human beings, it's just a few people, but if there are too many people... the intelligence agencies of powerful countries are not just for nothing, they must clues will be found."

"No solution can be perfect. This is the problem we have to face. We just need to calculate the risks and benefits."

Law sternly said:

"For the boss's goal, it is the best option to pull up a force that can affect the human pattern in the galaxy as soon as possible.

"Of course, the boss has another important goal when he comes to the empire to operate. He also wants to see if he can enter the center of power in the empire.

"But it is too difficult to enter the center of the empire's power, we have no access to the Emperor Star, and we cannot use various means.

"I studied the great nobles who have risen in the empire in the last millennium, and found that this is not a goal that can be achieved through individual efforts, but requires an entire family to move forward one after another. Behind the great nobles are families with intricate relationships.

"Now the honeymoon period between the boss and the empire is just because of the extensive influence created by the white ghost before. This is another hidden mine."

"What?"

Law laughed and said, "When the empire gives orders to the boss that are against the boss's interests, the boss may not necessarily execute them. Even if the orders of the empire make the boss unhappy, the boss may directly spit them in the face a few times."

"I believe this." 026 clicked his tongue, "Our boss is only suitable to be a leader, not an employee."

Law whispered: "I hope the honeymoon period between the boss and the empire can be longer. I just set up ten sets of servers on Yaha recently and spent a lot of money."

026 suddenly said: "I thought of another question... The boss has no choice but to cooperate with the imperial government because of the pressure from the Valkyrie. If the boss uses the empire to kill the Valkyrie, the boss may leave directly."

"The Valkyrie is indeed the boss's heart disease, and I don't know where this guy is hiding."

Lil clicked his tongue, and the projection disappeared after flickering lightly.

"I'll look on the Internet again, maybe I can find some clues... Remember to change into a maid outfit when delivering lunch to the boss!"

"What can I change? The boss is looking for a new wife. In the eyes of the boss, I'm just a piece of wood."

026 complained somewhat depressingly.

...

Why hasn't this damn guy returned to the team.

Catherine crossed her arms, leaning against the corner of the only way to and from the training center, staring at the passing vehicles and people.

The insect extermination battle two days ago made Catherine famous, and the name of the Empire's Golden Goddess of War was very famous on the Internet.

The main purpose of the empire’s live broadcast of this war has indeed been achieved—to show the public that the empire not only has a white ghost, but also has many powerful fighters, but these fighters are usually responsible for protecting the emperor’s star and the emperor’s star circle. Be active.

In order to ensure the quality of the live broadcast, each combat team member brought a tiny camera device.

Although in the final broadcast, that, that scene was edited out;

But this doesn't change the fact that I was taken advantage of by that guy!

Catherine has been getting more and more angry these two days.

Her first kiss was gone!

There is no big bed covered with petals, no psychedelic and romantic aurora, not even the embellishment of morning glow and sunset. I am wearing thick protective armor, and even the ends of my hair are stained with the Queen's Zerg blood!

This bastard, she insisted on it today!

"Waiting for me here?"

Yang Ming's voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Catherine turned her head and was about to throw a fist, but a cluster of carefully decorated flowers made her fist stop in the corner.

Behind the flowers was Yang Ming's smiling face.

Catherine was startled, and frowned, "Are you a face-changing robot? Why did you change your face again?"

The Yang Ming who appeared in front of her at this moment was the face of Captain Hanton.

Yang Ming smiled and said:

"It's easy to move, everyone misunderstood the last time I participated in the battle with the image of Hui Saka.

"I tried to figure it out carefully, and let's just use the original face.

"In this way, Hui Saka's identity can also be active outside the base, and occasionally go to the TV station to catch up on announcements to earn some extra money. The cost of the mechanical body is too expensive."

Yang Ming held flowers in both hands and sent them to Catherine's arms, "For you, isn't it beautiful?"

"It's, it's okay..."

Catherine looked away.

The anger that had accumulated for two days before had cooled down somehow, and this cluster of flowers was taken over somehow.

She lowered her head and sniffed.

Really fragrant.

"Don't you put down the mask a little?" Yang Ming gestured on his face, "Why do you have to be imprisoned by the mask?"

"This is discipline." Catherine raised her hand and nodded on her forehead. The visor suddenly shrank and became the size of a mask. "How about this?"

"Very good," Yang Ming said with a smile, "Let's go, Director Ruiwa should have been waiting for me for a long time, right?"

"how do you know?"

Yang Ming wondered: "You are waiting for me here, isn't it just to give me a tip?"

Catherine snorted coldly: "I wanted to ambush you and teach you a lesson... It was broadcast live nationwide!"

Yang Ming's eyes lit up: "Could it be fine if you don't live broadcast? Huh? I didn't expect you to be so open."

Catherine kicked up in anger, and Yang Ming retreated quickly, relying on the vector thrusters on the soles of his feet, barely dodging Catherine's offensive.

The two chased and fought on the side of the road for a while.

Miraculously, until Yang Ming entered Director Ruiwa's office, the bouquet of flowers that Catherine was holding remained intact.

In the office with multiple barriers opened, Director Rewa's expression was a bit gloomy.

"Handon," Director Rewa said, "First of all, I would like to thank you for your great contribution in this operation. We sorted out all the video materials and found that if it wasn't for you, more than half of the three sharp knife teams would have been lost. "

"Captain Catherine and the others are all excellent," Yang Ming praised, "It's really a waste for the empire to keep super reformers in the emperor star circle."

"Super-reformers are not stable," Rewa said indifferently, "The empire doesn't just have the task of killing insects, there are too many places that need to use super-reformers."

Yang Ming smiled and said, "Including sniping new federal agents, or participating in foreign wars?"

"Yes, you are also a member of the Super Transformers now," Rewa reminded, pushing a metal box in front of Yang Ming, "This is a reward decided by the higher authorities."

Yang Ming opened the lid of the box, saw the medal inside, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Imperial Royal Knight Medal, a rarity of the imperial camp in the game "Abyss", after players obtain this medal, they can enjoy the benefits of some of the lowest nobles in the empire.

Usually, one must make a great contribution to the empire before it is possible to receive the gift of the royal family.

"Royal Knight," Yang Ming said with a smile, "very good."

Director Ruiwa said indifferently: "Next, I want to talk to you about some issues that you may mind."

"No, I know what you want," Yang Ming raised a finger, the finger came off by itself, and the chip inside popped out.

Yang Ming put the chip in front of Director Ruiwa: "This is the design drawing of the Ghost Mecha."

Director Ruiwa suddenly narrowed his eyes and smiled.

Yang Ming smiled and said:

"The empire is actually at the leading level in the galaxy in terms of mech design, but in this battle, I found that the combination of transforming humans and mechas is still somewhat insufficient.

"The hundreds of mechas at that time were used for fire support at the surface landing points, and most of the empire's ship-borne mechas would become slow and clumsy on the surface.

"I must remind you that this mech is designed according to the limit of my physical strength, and it is not suitable for other people. I deleted most of the control structure, allowing the mecha to gain high mobility, sacrificing long-range firepower, Gained more energy cell bits.

"However, some sensors in the design plan may be of great help to you."

Director Ruiwa asked: "You also found this in the ancient ruins?"

Yang Ming rubbed his nose, leaned forward slowly, and pretended to be mysterious and said: "Director, have you ever heard the name of a civilization?"

"Which name?"

"Faya."

Director Ruiwa frowned slightly: "I have heard, but this is an imperial secret, how do you know?"

Yang Ming didn't answer, but said: "About the Ligui mecha, all I can give you is in this chip. The Chigui mecha is an ordinary long-range firepower mecha design. If you improve it, maybe a small part of it is powerful enough. Strong super-modifiers can also be used."

"Thank you anyway."

Director Ruiwa pressed a button on the table, and a secret door opened, and a robot only one meter tall came over holding a tray.

"Because it is special, no public ceremony will be held.

"This is a certificate of nobility, a certificate of imperial honor, from now on, you are a real baron of the empire.

"Of course, this is not a hereditary title, but this is the first time among overhaulers."

Yang Ming sighed lightly.

Then he frowned and said, "If I don't hand over the design drawings of the Ghost, you don't plan to give them to me?"

"How could that be?" Director Rewa laughed, "The baronship of the empire is very valuable. Besides, Hanton, I can give you a week's vacation...you need to meet your parents."

Yang Ming understood.

Director Ruiwa added: "Catherine will accompany you all the way, which is a kind of supervision."

"Understood." Yang Ming nodded, stood up and gave an imperial military salute to Director Ruiwa, "Thank you for reminding Director!"

Director Ruiwa said warmly: "Although the road to become a super-reformer is cruel, the super-reformer is actually a big warm family. Go back and rest, Catherine actually likes some little girls' things, such as hairpins, scarves, etc. A small gift, it would be great if it had crystal elements."

Yang Ming: The big warm family of the perverted killer.

How do you feel, this middle-aged lady is... assisting?
