Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 376: Crown of Silence (Six in One)

At this time, the fleets from all directions flew towards four different space stations outside the Eye of the World.

Since there is no interstellar airport inside the ring-shaped Eye of the World, all ships can only dock at external space stations.

The construction of these external space stations is also very unique, like a spider web, scattered in space.

At this time, the Star Destroyer Lei Ji drove over and got directly stuck on it.

Upon seeing this, Commander Aleck turned around and spoke to everyone.

"Let's go to the hangar!"

"Yes!"

Admiral Taitat and others replied in unison.

Everyone followed Commander Aleck and headed towards the hangar.

A moment later, the metal door of the mobile platform of Hangar No. 1 slowly opened.

Commander Aleckde led everyone out, and immediately a huge, endless hangar came into view.

There were four generation mechas, Shadow Killer, Thunder Guard and Blazing Flame, neatly arranged on the left.

In the right area there are many hideous and ferocious fourth-generation biological mechas, among which you can see Hong Lin, Lan Yan, etc.

These biological mechas are all of the same type, and all are equipped with flight modules.

Commander Aleckde led Su Ming and others forward.

The officers waiting for orders under the numerous mechas raised their hands and saluted solemnly.

When Su Ming and his companions walked forward for a distance, they saw a number of high-end customized mechas parked in the area on the left, with his own Killing Blade parked in front.

The right area is home to high-end customized fourth-generation biological mechas such as the Tyrannical Apostle and the Red Ghost.

Commander Aleck continued to lead his troops forward.

At this time, a forty-five-meter-tall machine with a black-gold luster all over its body, two pairs of vector auxiliary devices embedded on both sides of the waist, three pairs of black-gold light wings and a pair of black-gold metal claws embedded on the back, two black-gold plasma light knives hanging on the legs, and three red moons, five black moons, nine red stars, and eleven black stars painted on the shoulders, an advanced pseudo-V generation mecha, the Black Disaster Apostle, came into view.

This pseudo V-generation mecha is exactly Admiral Taitat's mecha, and on the right side of the mecha, there is a humanoid mecha.

The entire bio-mecha is fifty meters high, with an ugly monster head wrapped in dark red metal armor, two hideous and dim eyeballs tightly closed, a grinning mouth revealing rows of sharp teeth, and hanging hands like devil claws. A plasma lightsaber is embedded in the waist, and three pairs of dark red light wings are embedded in the back. There are four red moons, three black moons, ten red stars, and twelve black stars painted on the shoulders. It is a pseudo-V generation bio-mecha Exile.

This pseudo-V-generation biological mecha is Admiral Sanida's exclusive mecha.

As they continued to move forward, they saw two mechas emitting a terrifying aura of death.

On the left is a fifty-meter-tall, ferocious metal Tyrannosaurus head. The entire body is made of dark gold armor with special mysterious patterns on it, dark red metal dragon claws, two black blades covered with twisted patterns hanging on its waist, four pairs of dark gold wings embedded on its back, and two red suns, one black sun, ten red moons, twenty black moons, and numerous stars painted on its shoulders. It is a V-generation pure mechanical mecha, Dragon Slayer.

On the right is a fifty-meter-tall machine with two scarlet eyes embedded in its head. Its entire body is made of blood-red metal armor covered with special circular patterns, its claws are like those of a devil, two dark particle light blades are hung on its waist, and four pairs of blood-red light wings are embedded on its back. On its shoulders are sprayed a red sun, a black sun, eleven red moons, eighteen black moons, and numerous stars. It is a V-generation pure mechanical mecha, the Apostle of Hell.

"V-Generation Mecha!"

Su Yuan and others took a deep breath.

This was also the first time that Su Ming saw Generation V, and he was immediately deeply shocked.

Soon everyone walked in front of the two V-generation mechas, and Commander Aleck turned and spoke to Taitat and others.

"Let's all get on the plane!"

"Yes!"

Taitate and others responded solemnly.

Then everyone dispersed and ran towards their respective mechas.

At this time, Commander Aleck said to Deputy City Lord Okens with a smile.

"Deputy City Lord Okens, please excuse me. We will each take a V-generation mecha and go down."

"It's a small matter. I just happened to have never ridden a V-generation mecha before. Thanks to the official business, I can experience it this time."

Deputy City Lord Okens replied cheerfully.

"please!"

Commander Aleck made a gesture of invitation to Lord Okens.

On the other side, Su Ming quickly ran to the Killing Blade, then activated the suspension device under his feet, and floated towards the cockpit.

Soon Su Ming entered the cab and quickly started the mecha.

At this time, the V-generation pure mechanical mecha Dragon Slayer and the V-generation pure mechanical mecha Hell Apostle flew towards Exits 1 and 2 at high speed.

Admiral Taitat and Admiral Sanida also controlled the mechas to follow.

Seeing this, Su Ming and others also controlled the mechas and followed behind in an orderly manner.

Swish!

One after another, mechas flew out from the star destroyer Lei Ji and came to the vast starry sky.

At this time, a prompt popped up in Su Ming's cab.

"Received public communication information, do you accept it?"

"Yes!"

Su Ming immediately chose to accept it.

"Dear federal envoy, welcome to the Kingdom of Shabask and attend the once-in-a-century ceremony. Since the Eye of the World does not have an interstellar airport, please follow the virtual instructions and land at the Royal Palace Parking Area of ​​the Kingdom of Shabask."

A pleasant voice sounded, and at the same time, a virtual navigation arrow appeared on the virtual operating interface.

However, Su Ming simply ignored it because he only needed to fly with the team.

At this time, the mecha formation was divided into two teams, flying at high speed towards the ring-shaped Eye of the World and passing over the outer city.

Su Ming looked down and saw the bustling streets decorated with lights and colorful lights everywhere. Crowds of people gathered in the squares, streets and other places. It was very lively.

At this time, the people of the Shabasque Kingdom heard the roar and looked up at the sky.

When they saw the Federation's mecha formation flying over, they all exclaimed excitedly.

"Look, there are advanced mechas in the sky!"

"Wow, what generation are these mechas from? They look so cool!"

"Look at the sign above. It's the Federation's envoys."

"Hi!"

Some young men and women excitedly waved at the mecha formation flying past.

Su Ming looked at this scene with mixed feelings. Everyone was immersed in the joy of the celebration, but no one knew that they were already sitting on a powder keg.

"Ugh!"

Su Ming sighed slightly and controlled the mecha to follow the formation.

Not long after, Su Ming and others flew to the inner ring and arrived at the royal city area.

From a distance, a majestic palace is located in the center of the royal city. The walls of the entire palace are made of huge white flower rocks, and each stone carries a heavy history and is full of a sense of time. There are pavilions and towers in the interior, and the roads are winding and tortuous, with various exotic green plants planted.

At this time, Su Ming and his mecha formation landed towards the huge parking space on the right side of the palace.

Bang!
The mechas landed neatly at their designated positions.

Commander Aleckde and others immediately got off the mecha.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing luxurious robes, who was a little fat, had a round face and looked very wealthy, walked up with a smile on his face.

"Welcome! Welcome! Distinguished guests from the Federation who have come from afar."

"Prime Minister Banat, long time no see."

Commander Aleck replied with a smile.

"It's been a while since we last met. I've been too busy. I should have visited you."

Banat said with a smile.

"It's okay. We are here. Let me introduce you. This is Lord Okens, the deputy mayor of Starlight City and the representative of the Federal Parliament this time!"

Commander Aleck introduced solemnly.

"Hey, hello, Lord Oakens."

Banat shook hands with Okens warmly.

At this time, Su Ming, who was standing in the back row, quietly watched them exchanging hypocritical greetings.

Suddenly there was a roar from the sky.

Su Ming raised his head and looked over, only to see groups of advanced mechas falling from the sky and landing at parking positions not far away.

Leading the group was a sixty-meter-tall mecha made entirely of rare black metal that shone brightly. A skull mark was branded on its chest, and its monster-like metal claws held two super-particle light blades. Its back was embedded with four pairs of black light wings, and it was a V-generation mecha, the Death Judge, that exuded an oppressive feeling like the god of death.

At this time, the cockpit of the V-generation mecha Death Judgement opened, and an old man wearing a black dragon-patterned robe embroidered with a four-clawed black dragon, with wrinkled skin, and a noble and majestic demeanor, and a man wearing black colonial armor, with a stern face, eyes as deep as the night sea, and a dangerous aura like a ferocious beast floated down.

"Sigh~"

At this moment, Su Yuan, who was beside Su Ming, suddenly took a breath.

Su Ming looked at Su Yuan and found that this guy was also looking at the Dark Star Empire's envoys, so he lowered his voice and asked.

"Do you know them?"

"How can I not recognize him? That old man is Prince Theobert of the Dark Star Empire. He holds a very high position in the Dark Star Empire. The man following him is called Actron, the deputy commander of the Royal Knights!"

Su Yuan introduced to Su Ming in a low voice.

"Big shot!"

After listening to Su Yuan's words, Su Ming said thoughtfully.

"And the people following behind them are not good people either. They are all very famous generals of the Dark Star Empire."

Su Yuan said to Su Ming.

At this time, Su Ming suddenly discovered that many generals in the Dark Star Empire's envoy group were looking at this side with unfriendly eyes.

It really is true that enemies become jealous of each other when they meet.

At this time, another group of mechas fell from the sky. These mechas were almost all white, and each one was very exquisite, like a white work of art.

Leading among them was a humanoid robot, covered in pure white armor with dense golden lines on it, a golden ring branded on its chest, four pairs of white light wings embedded behind the mecha, and a white spear held in its sharp claws, a V-generation mecha Shen'en that exuded a holy glow.

At this time, the cockpit of the V-generation mecha Shen'en mecha was opened, and an old man wearing a white cassock, with a slightly hunched body, a thin face, skin like aged parchment, criss-crossed wrinkles, deep eye sockets, and sharp eyes, and a woman wearing white colonial armor, tall, with long ice-blue hair draped over her shoulders, skin as white as snow, dark blue eyes, and a beautiful face floated down.

Su Ming looked towards the Kingdom of Apocalypse and asked Su Yuan in a low voice.

"Do you know the person coming down over there?"

"I know him. The old man is Archbishop Desir of the Kingdom of Apocalypse. The beautiful lady is Limi, the deputy leader of the Knights Templar of the Kingdom of Apocalypse."

Su Yuan also stared at Limi and introduced her to Su Ming.

Just as Su Yuan was introducing Su Ming, another group of mechas fell from the sky. However, the models of these mechas were very mixed, and the one leading the group was also a blue V-generation mecha.

At this time, the cockpit of the V-generation mecha opened, and an old man wearing a blue brocade robe, a small round hat, a wrinkled face, and a silver beard, and a big man wearing black colonial armor, with hideous scars on his face and eyes like a beast, fell down.

Su Yuan was also stunned when he saw it, and said in surprise.

"Damn, isn't that the head of the Generis family, the family behind the Heinte Interstellar Group? He's willing to leave the Star of Saint Jox."

"Haint Interstellar Group, isn't that the company that monopolizes water resources?"

Su Ming said with some surprise.

"Yes, it's him. Let me tell you, although the three major forces all collect water resources, there will always be a gap. After all, there are too many places that need water, not only for drinking, but also for planting, industrial cooling, etc. Whoever sees him must give this guy some face! When I accompanied Grandpa Zeng back to the Holy Land before, I also paid him a special visit. After all, our family's industrial production requires the consumption of a huge amount of water resources, and it is not cost-effective to mine it ourselves."

Su Yuan explained to Su Ming.

"Well, I see."

Su Ming nodded and replied.

At this time, other heavyweight diplomats from the Sabasque Kingdom came forward to greet the leaders of various forces and greeted them warmly.

Not long after, Prime Minister Banat spoke to Lord Okens and others.

"Let's not talk here anymore. I'll lead you to the banquet hall."

"it is good!"

Lord Oakens replied with a smile.

"this way please!"

Prime Minister Banat smiled and led Okens and others towards the palace.

Su Ming and others followed.

Soon they reached the main gate. The gate of the palace was made of ebony and bronze, and was inlaid with brilliant colored glaze, forming a gorgeous royal emblem. Standing at the palace gate were guards wearing gorgeous armor and holding spears. They saluted Su Ming and the others with their spears raised.

When Su Ming and his companions passed through the main gate, they came to a huge courtyard. There were colorful flowers and rare green plants everywhere. From time to time, they could see strange stone sculptures, attics, pavilions, and artificial lakes.

Looking at this scene, Su Ming couldn't help but sigh. It really proved the saying that the richer the people, the more retro the place they live in.

There are hardly any technological products to be seen in the entire palace.

After a long time, Prime Minister Banat led Su Ming and others to a magnificent palace.

The entire palace is built of huge green stones, with a top that soars into the clouds and various mythical beasts carved on the walls.

In front of the palace, there is a square stone platform.

On the platform stands a huge ancient white bell, engraved with intricate patterns.

Banat led Okens and others into the palace and came to the spacious and luxurious hall.

The entire hall was decorated with a new look, with huge pillars on both sides wrapped with gold foil and silk.

The floor is covered with exquisite carpets, the walls are hung with priceless oil paintings, and crystal chandeliers are hung from the ceiling, the bright lights as dazzling as stars.

There were long tables in the main hall area, covered with white lace tablecloths and filled with luxurious fruits, cakes and fine wines.

At this time, many guests had already gathered in the hall. Everyone was holding wine glasses and chatting and laughing.

Banat said to Okens and others.

"Lord Oakens, I still have many guests to entertain. Please make yourselves at ease. If you need anything, just tell the servants here."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy."

Okens responded with a smile.

"Excuse me first."

Banat then turned and left.

At this time, envoys from the Dark Star Empire, the Kingdom of Apocalypse, and the Star of Saint Jox were also led in.

Okens looked at them, but neither of them showed any intention of saying hello, and they both treated each other as air.

Commander Aleckde then spoke.

"Let's go over there and stay away from them!"

"it is good!"

Okens nodded in response.

Commander Aleck then led the team to the right corner of the hall.

As for the Dark Star Empire, they also found a place to gather separately. When the other guests in the hall saw this scene, they didn't dare to come up and greet them.

They are afraid of being targeted by other forces if they greet one force.

Su Ming lowered his voice and asked Su Yuan.

"When does the banquet start?"

Su Yuan raised his bracelet, looked at the time and said.

"It's only half past nine, it's still early. According to the tradition of the Shabasque Kingdom, the king will appear before noon and ring the bell at the door to announce the official start of the celebration."

"Ah."

After listening to this, Su Ming nodded slightly and replied.

There was a commotion at the banquet at this time. Su Ming and others looked over and saw the eldest prince Soleka and the third prince Merritt walking in side by side.

Many guests at the scene came forward to greet and congratulate.

The two of them chatted with the guests with a smile, and then walked towards the Dark Star Empire and the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom envoys respectively.

Deputy City Lord Okens looked at this scene and whispered to Commander Aleckde.

"Dark Star and Apocalypse are really dishonest. They used to pretend, but now they are too lazy to pretend. It seems that the old king is in a bad situation."

"I don't know the old king's situation either. In recent years, I have visited him many times in the name of the Federation, but was always rejected."

Commander Aleck said solemnly.

"The most urgent thing now is to find out his physical condition."

Okens said thornily.

"That's probably difficult. I guess only his sons know something about it."

Commander Aleck replied in a deep voice.

"By the way, where is the seventh prince Omid? Why can't I see him?"

Okens turned his head and looked around and said.

"Don't even mention it. That guy is invisible. He hides like a turtle all day and hardly sees strangers. Maybe he won't even show up at this grand ceremony."

Commander Aleck replied in a deep voice.

"This is troublesome."

Okens was also very troubled and felt that everything was going wrong.

At this time, Su Ming and Su Yuan stood at the side of the team and did not walk around. Although in theory they could move freely, they did not dare to do so.

At this moment, Su Ming suddenly felt as if someone was looking at him.

He immediately turned his head and saw a familiar figure among the envoys of the Star of Saint Jox in the distance.

That figure was none other than Miss Orisa from Vox Biological Group.

Su Ming was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that she would come to attend the ceremony.

At this time, Shader, wearing a luxurious robe, walked in from the main entrance. He saw Su Ming and Su Yuan at a glance, and an expression of great joy appeared on his face.

He immediately walked towards the two of them and shouted excitedly.

"Su Yuan, Su Ming!"

Su Ming and Su Yuan heard someone calling them and turned their heads to look over.

When they saw it was Shader, their expressions suddenly darkened.

"Su Ming, it's Shadel!"

Su Yuan said at a loss.

"Don't look at him, turn your head away and pretend you didn't hear it."

Su Ming immediately turned his head away.

Commander Aleckde and Deputy City Lord Okens, who were talking at this time, heard someone calling Su Ming and Su Yuan, and turned their heads to look over.

Okens said after a slight pause.

"This person looks so familiar."

"His name is Shader, and he is the only son of the Seventh Prince Omid."

Commander Alec introduced in a low voice.

When Okens heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

At this time, Shader also walked up to Su Ming and Su Yuan and patted them on the shoulders.

"Why don't you two get back to me?"

When Su Yuan saw him coming over, he quickly shook his head and said.

"Ah, is there any?"

"No? I've called you so many times, but you two didn't answer me. When did you come to the ceremony? You didn't even tell me. I'll take you around."

Shadel said enthusiastically.

Su Ming and the other man shook their heads like rattles. They were as surprised as if they had seen a ghost when they saw Shadel.

At this time, Okens came over with a smile on his face and asked with a smile.

"Su Ming, Su Yuan, is this your friend?"

Su Ming and Su Yuan were also startled. How did Deputy City Lord Okens come here?

Without waiting for Su Ming and the others to answer, Shader spoke immediately.

"Of course, we are sworn brothers, a friendship worth life."

Upon hearing this, Deputy City Lord Okens smiled brightly and said.

"Since your friends are here, why don't you go shopping with him!"

"Lord Oakens, this is not good."

Su Ming replied with a slight twitch of his mouth.

"What's wrong? Hurry up and go."

Okens said this in an unquestionable tone, and at the same time hinted at the two with his eyes, asking them to gather some information.

"Ok."

Su Ming and Su Yuan responded helplessly upon seeing this.

"Walk."

Shader happily pulled Su Ming and the other person and walked towards the right door inside the hall.

Soon they left the hall and entered a long corridor, where they saw sets of vintage armor and some exquisite porcelain placed on the side of the corridor.

Su Ming took a glance and said with some surprise.

"These are all antiques. Are they just placed here like this?"

"My grandpa likes vintage stuff, so I just put it there. It's not worth much anyway."

Shadel replied with a carefree heart.

"It's worthless. This set of armor is probably worth tens of millions of federal coins."

Su Yuan is very connoisseur of goods.

"It's really not that great. If you are interested, I can take you to see the real good stuff."

Shader said to Su Ming and the others in a very good mood.

"Fine!"

Su Ming and the other man also became interested.

Shader then led them around in circles, and the soldiers guarding along the way saw him and made way for him.

Although Shader has no power, he is a genuine royal member and this is his home.

Not long after, Shader brought Su Ming and the others to the door of a closed collection room.

Shadel took out a jeweled key from his pocket, inserted it into the keyhole of the door, and turned it to open the door.

When they entered the collection room, they saw exhibition columns covered with special glass covers, inside which were many exhibits.

"These are the good stuff, all collected by my grandfather."

Shadel said proudly to Su Ming and the others.

Su Ming and Su Yuan walked to the nearest exhibition column and their eyes suddenly widened.

On top of this exhibition column is a very beautiful piece of natural red coral art. This kind of thing basically has been passed down from before the Christian era and is now almost extinct.

They took a deep breath and continued walking forward, coming to the second display column, on which was placed a porcelain vase that was as white as snow, as soft as jade, and extremely exquisitely crafted.

"This is a white jade bottle, it has a history of more than 5,000 years."

"nice one."

Su Ming and Su Yuan nodded in response.

"Let's look at the next one."

Shader took Su Ming and the other man to the third display pillar.

Inside the transparent glass cover, there was an ancient, solemn, and sacred crown. The main body of the crown was elegant and perfect, inlaid with many exotic gems, and emitting a faint halo.

The moment Su Ming saw the crown, he froze in place, staring at the crown intently.

The scene around him darkened in an instant. Su Ming was in a trance and saw a servant kneeling in front of him, holding a tray with the sacred crown in his hands.

At this time Shader introduced Su Ming and the other two.

"This is the crown of the last emperor before the establishment of the Federation, the Crown of Silence. This emperor was a famous tyrant!"

When Su Ming heard Shadel's words, his expression changed slightly.

Su Yuan also asked with interest.

"tyrant?"

"That's right. In order to achieve great unification, this emperor issued many extreme policies and worked hard to optimize his rule. But he overlooked a very important thing. The situation at the bottom was uneven and could not keep up with the policies he formulated! As a result, the middle-level ruling class madly squeezed the people below in order to complete their tasks, causing everyone to complain and the people to live in misery!"

"I see!"

"Do you know what the biggest pie this guy is?"

Shadel said with a smile.

"what?"

Su Yuan asked curiously.

"The biggest pie he painted was that after completing the great unification, all the people would live a happy and healthy life. Ironically, on the night he completed the great unification, countless uprisings broke out around the world, and his great unification collapsed overnight."

"So what happened to this guy?"

"I don't know. He disappeared the night of the collapse. He must be dead."

Shadel thought for a moment and said.

"Good death, this tyrant deserves death."

After listening to this, Su Yuan began to speak.

At this time, Su Ming, who was standing by, heard Su Yuan's words and turned his head to look at him coldly.

Su Yuan was also startled. He felt uneasy when Su Ming looked at him. He felt a chill on his back. He swallowed and asked, "Su Ming, why are you looking at me? Did I say something wrong?"

"No, you're right, damn it indeed."

Su Ming was silent for a few seconds and replied coldly.

"I'll take you to see the others."

Shadel then walked forward.

Su Yuan followed immediately, while Su Ming stood where he was, looking at the Crown of Silence in front of him with a complicated look in his eyes.

At this time, Shader and Su Yuan found that Su Ming did not catch up, so they stopped and turned to look back.

"Su Ming, what are you doing standing there?"

Su Yuan shouted at Su Ming.

Su Ming walked over and spoke to Shadel in a deep voice.

"Shadel, can you give me the Crown of Silence?"

"Ah? I'm afraid that won't work. These exhibits all belong to my grandfather, and the Crown of Silence is his favorite."

Shadel said very apologetically.

"Hey, what do you want that old crown for? What's the use of it?"

Su Yuan looked at Su Ming in great confusion.

"It's okay, just asking."

Su Ming gave a brief explanation and did not force it.

At this moment, Su Yuan suddenly thought of something and said to Shader.

"Shadel, didn't you say last time that if I helped you get the blood of the Star Spirit, you would give me the Emerald Ring?"

“Well, this is a bit.”

Shadel looked a little embarrassed for a moment.

"You are so mean. You swore to me that it was okay at the beginning, but now you are hesitating. This is so mean. We are still brothers."

Su Yuan complained to Shadel.

"Okay, you two wait here for me for a while."

Shadel's cheeks turned red, and then he spoke without hesitation.

"That's interesting!"

Su Yuan said with great joy.

Shadel then turned and left the exhibition room.

At this time Su Ming looked at Su Yuan puzzledly and asked.

"Su Yuan, what do you want that Emerald Ring for? I remember it looked like a gem bracelet."

"Of course it's for the goddess in my mind."

Su Yuan said with a smile.

"Goddess? The one you like?"

"Correct!"

"Who?"

"Of course it's Super Diva Hillis!"

"Haha, if it were any other celebrity, with the Su family's background and your current status and position, they would all come over to you. But Shiris, you'd better just forget about it, you have no chance at all."

Su Ming poured a basin of cold water on Su Yuan's head without any hesitation.

The smile on Su Yuan's face suddenly froze, and he said with some resentment.

"Brother, do you think so little of me?"

“Act within your ability.”

Su Ming patted Su Yuan's shoulder earnestly.

"No, I won't give up, no matter how slim the hope is."

Su Yuan took a deep breath and said firmly.

"Okay, then I won't advise you."

Su Ming didn't say much.

At this time, Shader hurried over, picked up an exquisite box and handed it to Su Yuan.

"for you!"

Su Yuan took it and opened it, only to see a sparkling emerald green bracelet inside, embedded with crystal clear green gems.

He immediately laughed so hard that he couldn't stop.

"Haha, that's it! As long as you give this to her, she will definitely be very happy."

Su Ming shook his head helplessly.

At this time, Shader also took out a box and handed it to Su Ming.

"Su Ming, this is for you."

"I have it too?"

Su Ming looked at Shadel with some surprise.

"Of course, we are friends."

Shadel patted his chest and said generously.

After listening to Shadel's words, Su Ming couldn't help but change his opinion of this guy. Although he was cowardly, he seemed to be quite loyal.

"alright."

Su Ming reached out to take it, opened the box and took a look.

Inside the box lay an extremely luxurious, noble and elegant necklace, embedded with a teardrop-shaped blue star stone and surrounded by a circle of gradient gemstones.

Place a profile card next to the necklace.

Tears of Star
Meaning: Star love is eternal.

Su Ming closed the box and looked at Shadel and said.

"Too expensive."

"It's okay, it's just a little token of my appreciation. Please don't be polite to me."

Shadel waved his hand quickly and said.

"No, this is not a question of politeness, it's just too precious."

Su Ming could tell at a glance that this necklace was no ordinary item.

"Still not brothers?"

Shadler's face suddenly turned stern.

"Ah, yes!"

Seeing this, Su Ming replied helplessly.

"Then take it."

Shader stuffed the box directly into Su Ming's hand.

"All right!"

Seeing that Shadel had said this, Su Ming did not say anything more.

"I'll take you to the Observatory. The scenery there is great."

Shadel said with a smile.

"it is good!"

Su Ming and Su Yuan followed Shader out.

At this time Su Ming thought about it and asked.

"Shader, how is your grandfather's health? Does the blood of the star spirit work?"

Shader was also startled when he heard Su Ming's words, then he turned his head nervously and looked around. Seeing that there was no one nearby, he lowered his voice and spoke to Su Ming.

"I'm telling you, my father won't let me tell anyone about my grandfather."

"We are not outsiders, why should we hide it?"

Su Yuan said to Shadel.

"I know, but I really don't know my grandfather's current condition, but the blood of the star spirit should have been delivered."

Shadel explained quietly.

"Ah."

When Su Ming heard this, his eyes moved slightly. It seemed that the situation of the King of Shatak was indeed not optimistic. He didn't know how much effect the blood of the star spirit could have.

"Let's not talk about that. Let's go now while we still have some time."

Shadel said excitedly.

"it is good!"

At the banquet in the main hall.

Commander Aleckde and Okens kept looking up at their bracelets to check the time. It was already 11:10 in the morning.

"Lord Shatak, why haven't you come yet?"

Commander Aleck said with a frown.

"There are still 12 minutes until 50 o'clock, wait a little longer."

Okens said very calmly.

At this time, many guests at the banquet began to discuss in a low voice.

"That's strange. Why hasn't the king come out yet? I remember he showed up very early during the last centennial celebration."

"Yeah, nothing should happen."

"Don't talk nonsense, wait a little longer."

Just when everyone was talking about it.

Su Ming and Su Yuan returned to the hall and walked towards Okens and others.

When Okens saw Su Ming and the other man coming back, he quickly stepped forward and asked.

"How is it? Did you get any news?"

"Lord Okens, Shadel doesn't know the king's condition either, but from what he said, I can sense that King Shatak is not in a good condition."

Su Ming said to Okens.

After hearing Su Ming's words, Okens' expression became even more gloomy. He pondered for a while and said.

"I know, thank you for your hard work."

"this is what we are supposed to do."

Su Ming and Su Yuan replied respectfully and then walked to the side.

At this time, Xiao Hui crawled out of Su Ming's pocket, looked at the grapes on the table next to him, and squeaked excitedly.

Seeing this, Su Ming walked over, picked a few grapes and handed them to Xiao Hui.

Xiao Hui ate happily.

Su Yuan saw Su Ming feeding the pet, so he lowered his voice and spoke to him.

"I'm going over there to eat some cakes to fill my stomach."

"Go."

Su Ming nodded in response and continued to feed Xiao Hui.

Just then a figure appeared in front of Su Ming, and Su Ming subconsciously raised his head to look over.

He saw a woman wearing a blue lace dress, with picturesque eyebrows, ghostly eyes, and eyes like stars standing in front of him. This woman was none other than Miss Orisa.

"Master Su Ming, we meet again."

Orisa greeted with a smile.

"What a coincidence, Miss Orisa."

Su Ming replied politely.

Orisa looked at Su Ming's military uniform and said with a smile.

"Master Su Ming, I didn't expect that in just a few months, you have been promoted from major to major general. It's amazing."

"Just luck."

"Master Su Ming, you are really too modest. If I am not mistaken, you should be the youngest general in the history of the Federation."

"Maybe."

Su Ming replied coldly.

He had a good impression of Orisa, but he was not impressed by the Vox Biotech company behind her.

Orisa also saw that Su Ming didn't want to talk to her any more, but she didn't mind and said with a smile.

"Master Su Ming, last time I invited you to dinner, you refused. It's a rare opportunity for us to meet again. Would you please do me the honor this time?"

"Sorry, I'm busy with military duties!"

Su Ming declined with a headache.

"It's okay, I can wait until you're free. Here's my business card with my contact information."

Orisa took out an exquisite business card and handed it to Su Ming with a smile.

"Ok."

Su Ming hesitated for a moment, but finally reached out and took it.

"Then I'll take my leave first."

Orisa turned and left gracefully.

Su Ming looked at Orisa's back and fell into deep thought.

Time passes little by little,
Soon it was 11:50, and there were only 12 minutes left until 10 o'clock, but no one saw the figure of King Shatak.

At this moment, all the guests in the hall looked uneasy.

"It's 10 o'clock in 12 minutes and the king hasn't come out yet. Who will ring the bell then?"

"Will the King not come out?"

"Impossible. How can the ceremony begin without ringing the bell?"

Everyone talked one after another.

At this time, in the Dark Star Empire's envoy group, the eldest prince Soleka had a tense expression and spoke to Prince Theobert in a low voice.

"It's 12 o'clock in ten minutes. If my father doesn't come out by then, it means he is dying! I will then take his place and ring the bell, declaring that I will temporarily assume the administrative power of the Kingdom of Shabakkus! You must support me."

"No problem, but I don't think the Third Prince will agree."

Prince Theobert reminded.

"I know. If he doesn't know what's good for him, don't blame me for being rude."

Soleka raised his head and looked towards the envoys from the Kingdom of Apocalypse.

At this time, the third prince Merritt also looked at Soleka with tacit understanding. The two looked at each other, and there was a strong smell of gunpowder.

On the federal envoy's side, Okens kept looking at his bracelet and became more and more irritated.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, there were only 12 minutes left until 3 o'clock.

"No, there's no time! I think Lord Shatak is really dying. We have to prepare for the worst!"

Commander Aleck took a deep breath and said solemnly.

Generals Taitat and others were so nervous at this moment.

The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly solemn and the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger.

Just when everyone thought that the king would not come out, Prime Minister Banat suddenly shouted loudly.

"His Majesty is here!"

In an instant, everyone in the hall was shocked and turned their heads to look over.

I saw an old man wearing a luxurious star-studded robe, with white hair, a thin body, and skin with criss-crossing grooves on his face. His eyes were like deep cold pools, cold and sharp, and his demeanor revealed majesty. He walked out in high spirits.

"Haha, I'm sorry, dear guests. I'm late and I'm sorry for not hosting you well enough!"

"My Lord, you are welcome."

Everyone responded excitedly.

When Okens and others saw this scene, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the Dark Star Empire, the Apocalypse Kingdom, the eldest prince and the third prince all looked unhappy.

They had no idea what was going on. It was clear that Shatak was not dying, so why was he suddenly so energetic?

"Everyone, the auspicious time is approaching. Let me ring the bell first."

The Shatak King said calmly, and then walked out step by step.

Everyone followed.

The King of Shatak walked out of the hall and came to the four platforms on all four sides.

He walked up the stairs step by step and finally came to the ancient bell.

The King of Shatak looked at the time on his bracelet, and when it reached 12 o'clock, he pushed the collision pillar hard.

boom!
The dull bell sounded through the bottom device and instantly resounded throughout the Eye of the World.

At this moment, inside the Eye of the World, all the waiting people burst into warm cheers, and countless fireworks rose into the sky and exploded in the air.

After ringing the bell, King Shatak turned around, walked down the stone platform, came in front of everyone and said with a smile.

"please!"

After hearing this, everyone headed towards the main hall.

Soon everyone returned to the hall, and King Shatak walked straight to the innermost part of the hall and sat on the luxurious throne.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the King of Shatak.

"Haha, today is the centennial celebration of my Shabasque Kingdom, and it is also the day when the Black Fluorescent Agreement expires and is renewed. Those who can come to participate in the ceremony today are all friends, so please be a witness."

The Shatak King spoke directly to the point.

At this time, many guests present spoke up.

"No problem, it's our pleasure."

King Shatak then looked at Deputy Lord of Okens, Archbishop Deshil, Prince Theobert, and Generis.

"Then we will start renewing the Black Fluorescence Agreement now. Do you have any objections?"

Okens, Archbishop Desir, Prince Theobert, and Generis all had changing expressions. They didn't expect that King Shatak would go straight to the point. This was very abnormal.

But they couldn't care less about that now. Their purpose of coming here was to reach an agreement, so they all spoke up.

"No objection! But how do we continue this agreement?"

"It's very simple. The agreement remains the same. The trade tax of the Eye of the World and the profit of Galactus will go to the Federation at 20%, Dark Star at 10%, Apocalypse at 10%, and St. Jox Star at 10%!"

The Lord of Shatak said with a smile.

As soon as these words were spoken, Okens' tense nerves relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.

However, Prince Theobert and Archbishop Dehill both looked very unhappy.

At this time, Prince Theobert said in a cold voice.

"Lord Shatak, it's been a hundred years, and a lot has changed in this world. Shouldn't the profit-sharing agreement also be changed? Why has the Federation always been the biggest shareholder?"

"Yes."

Archbishop Deshier also spoke up.

When King Shatak heard this, the smile on his face instantly disappeared, his eyes became very sharp, and he spoke majestically.

"Are you dissatisfied with my proposal?"

Everyone present was shocked instantly.

Prince Theobert and Archbishop Dehill's faces suddenly darkened, and they did not dare to refute for a while.

Su Ming looked at the Lord of Shatak and showed a trace of surprise. This Lord of Shatak was indeed not a pushover, he actually dared to speak to Dark Star and Apocalypse in this way.

At this time, Lord Shatak said indifferently.

"I have always been fair. The pie is only this big. If you are dissatisfied, you can protest to the Federation. I believe the Federation should be happy to prove itself."

At this time, Commander Aleck stood up and spoke with a smile.

"We the Federation will take 20% of the market share. Do you have any objections?"

"You have such a big appetite. Don't you care if you can eat it?"

Prince Theobert snorted.

"Then you can give it a try. Whether you want a one-on-one fight or a group fight, we are always here to fight with you. And you'd better not treat us like those new recruits at home, thinking that you can show off your power by just sending some troops over. You are not qualified!"

Commander Aleck said sarcastically.

"Lord Aleck, are you too conceited? Don't forget that it's not just the Dark Star Empire that is dissatisfied."

Archbishop Deshier spoke slowly.

"So what if you guys are added?"

Alec replied bluntly.

Upon hearing this, Archbishop Deshier looked at Patriarch Jinris.

As a result, Chief Jinris remained silent.

Archbishop De Hill's expression became more and more gloomy. Although the three parties were not in harmony, they had discussed it before coming and agreed to boycott the Federation together.

As a result, at the critical moment, this guy pretended to be dead.

At this time, Prince Theobert said angrily.

"Do you really think we dare not?"

"Then give it a try!"

Aleck's eyes suddenly became very fierce and he replied coldly.

For a moment, the atmosphere became tense.

When the guests around saw this scene, they dared not breathe for fear of getting into trouble.

Just when the situation was about to get out of control, Lord Shatak suddenly spoke.

"Okay, everyone, stop arguing and listen to me."

The Prince of Theobert and others turned their heads and stared at the Lord of Shatak.

Lord Shatak spoke hoarsely.

"Whether it's the Federation, Dark Star, Apocalypse, or Saint Jox Star, they are all honored guests of our country of Sabasque. We should all be harmonious and there's no need to cause unpleasantness! Of course, I'm not a petty person. Let's put it this way! Three days from now will be the climax of our country's celebration, and the Star Hidden Competition will be held at that time. I'm here to invite everyone to participate in this event. Each side has 100 places. Of course, it's a competition? There must be a prize."

"What kind of lottery?"

Prince Theobert and others looked towards Lord Shatak.

"I will give up 10% of my share of trade tax, and I will also give 10% of the profits of Planet Crusher as a reward for this competition. Whoever wins among the four of you will get this reward!"

"Really?"

Okens, Prince Theobert and others all spoke with great excitement.

"Of course it's true. Besides, it's not just you who are participating in the competition. Solka, Merrit, and all members of the royal family who are of age must participate."

The Shatak King's eyes flickered and he spoke hoarsely.

"Father?"

Soleka and the others were stunned. They were going to participate too? Although this activity was a tradition in their country, it was usually attended by people below them.

Shatak said with a smile.

"Why, do you have objections to my decision?"

"Don't dare!"

Soleka and others replied in a low voice.

"That would be best. Of course, as I said, everyone will receive a reward. If anyone among you wins, I will give him this jade token."

The old hand of the Shatak king picked up an ancient jade plate, which was engraved with complicated patterns and designs.

When Soleka and the others saw the jade token, they immediately showed fanatical expressions. Because the jade token represented the crown prince and power, which meant that whoever won among the royal family members would be the crown prince.

"Father, we will do our best and will never let you down!"

"Great, is everyone satisfied now?"

Shatak looked around at everyone present with his cloudy eyes.

"satisfy!"

Prince Theobert spoke one after another.

"Since you are satisfied, I hope everyone can give me some face during this period of time and let me have a good celebration."

Shatak spoke meaningfully to everyone.

Prince Theobert and the others were startled and began to speak in reply.

"it is good!"
