Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 378 Differences (Six in One)

After listening to this, Okens thought about it for a while. He felt that the conditions offered by the seventh brother were very pertinent and not exaggerated. The best way is to keep things steady and sustainable.

He looked at Omid, smiled, picked up the teacup and said.

"Okay, the Seventh Prince is indeed very sincere. I wish us a pleasant cooperation."

"Happy cooperation!"

Omid secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then raised his teacup.

The two drank the tea in the cups and the agreement was officially reached.

Su Ming was very happy when he saw this scene. It was a good thing for him that the Seventh Prince reached an agreement with the Federation.

At this time, Omid put down the teacup and spoke respectfully to Deputy City Lord Okens.

"Lord Oakens, please keep my bargaining chips a secret until I take the position. After all, secrets are the key to success!"

"I understand this principle, don't worry!"

Okens replied in agreement.

"Thank you very much."

Prince Omid picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Okens, thanking him gratefully.

Okens raised his bracelet to check the time, picked up the teacup and drank it all, then stood up and said.

"It's getting late, and we should go back. Just do everything as usual, and we'll take care of the rest."

"Okay, I'll see you off!"

Prince Omid immediately stood up to see him off.

"No, let's just climb over the wall and get out."

Su Ming stood up and declined politely.

The expressions of Okens and Omid froze for a moment, but they both subconsciously agreed and said nothing.

Not long after, Su Ming and Okens returned to the Gemini Hotel and walked towards the room.

Okens was in a very good mood and praised Su Ming.

"You did a great job this time. I will definitely reward you well after everything here is settled."

"Thank you, Lord Oakens."

"Okay, you don't have to see me off. The room is just ahead."

"Yes, my lord."

Seeing this, Su Ming separated from Okens and walked towards his room.

When he turned the corner, he bumped into Su Yuan.

"Su Ming, I'm looking for you!"

Su Yuan said with a very excited look.

"whats the matter?"

"There has been some progress on what Lord Okens told us to do. Shadel said he would tell my father when he got back and ask him to find a chance to introduce us to someone."

"Lord Oakens said we don't need to worry about this matter."

Su Ming said to Su Yuan with a smile.

"Ah? No way, why are you suddenly not using it anymore?"

"Don't worry about this."

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to get involved. By the way, Su Ming, come with me to the concert tonight."

Su Yuan directly took out a stack of tickets and said excitedly.

"Whose concert?"

Su Ming asked in surprise.

"Of course my goddess, Shiris!"

Su Yuan said excitedly.

"Oh, okay, I don't have anything to do anyway."

Su Ming didn't want to spoil Su Yuan's fun, he just went to watch the concert to relax.

"Come on, let me tell you, this is a rare opportunity. If it wasn't for raising funds for the neutral countries affected by the disaster in the Danube Star Sea, Ms. Shiris might not be willing to hold this concert."

Su Yuan pulled Su Ming downstairs quickly, talking excitedly.

Soon the two changed their clothes and came to the lobby on the first floor.

At this time, they saw Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue standing at the front desk, talking to the staff.

Su Yuan then said to Su Ming.

"Hey! Aren't those the two girls who visited you in the ward last time? They must be here to see you. We agreed to accompany me to the concert tonight, so don't stand me up again."

"No, let's go over and say hello."

Su Ming rolled his eyes at Su Yuan and then walked over.

"That's pretty much it."

When Su Yuan heard Su Ming's words, he immediately showed a satisfied expression.

Su Ming walked over with Su Yuan and shouted.

"First rain, like snow!"

After hearing this, Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue turned around and immediately walked over happily.

"Su Ming!"

"Why are you here?"

Su Ming asked with a smile.

"We are off today and don't have to be on duty, so I thought I'd come over to play with you."

Chu Yu explained to Su Ming.

"Okay!"

Su Ming agreed without even thinking about it.

"Ok?"

When Su Yuan heard Su Ming's words, he was stunned and looked at Su Ming in surprise.

At this time An Ruoxue also said happily.

"That's great, let's go to Miss Hillis's concert."

"That's even better, let's go together."

Su Ming said in a better mood when he saw that they were going to see Shilis's concert.

"We only have three tickets, though."

Lin Chuyu said a little embarrassedly.

"It's okay, my friend has the ticket."

Su Ming said with a smile.

"That's great, let's go."

After listening to this, An Ruoxue and Lin Chuyu walked towards the hotel gate.

Su Ming and Su Yuan followed behind.

At this time, Su Yuan also complained with a dark face.

"You've gone too far. You want women instead of brothers."

"Nonsense, of course I want a woman."

Su Ming replied with a smile.

"I despise you!"

Su Yuan was stunned for a moment, and replied with contempt.

Su Ming smiled silently, too lazy to say more to Su Yuan, and walked out of the hotel.

Outside the World Eye Light and Shadow Conference.

Su Ming and three others got off the rental hovercraft and looked over.

A giant hall with a strange shape, like a nebula, came into view. The entire exterior of the hall was made of silver metal, emitting a strange luster, and a holographic image advertisement of Shirley was projected above the main body of the hall.

Nearly 500,000 people gathered outside the entire hall, and it was crowded with people everywhere, making it extremely lively.

“This concert venue looks so classy!”

An Ruoxue looked at the light and shadow venue and said in admiration.

"Of course it is. This concert venue is the most advanced in the entire universe. It is even more advanced than the Starlight Sphere at the Federal Imperial Academy!"

Su Yuan introduced to Su Ming and others.

"That's not bad."

Su Ming replied with a little surprise.

At this time, Lin Chuyu looked at the entrance in the distance and saw a long queue of people waiting.

"There are so many people, let's go and line up quickly, otherwise we will miss it."

"What are you afraid of? My ticket is a VIP front row ticket. I can go directly through the VIP channel."

Su Yuan replied indifferently.

"The problem is that our tickets are not there."

An Ruoxue said helplessly.

"You can throw away those tickets, but here are my piles!"

Su Yuan directly took out a stack of VIP tickets.

"That's great!"

An Ruoxue's eyes suddenly lit up and she said happily.

"Come with me!"

Su Yuan was in a very good mood and took Su Ming and others towards the VIP passage in the distance.

Not long after, Su Ming and his three companions successfully entered the Light and Shadow Hall through the VIP channel.

The entire hall is very large and luxuriously decorated. The dome is embedded with countless dazzling colored lights like stars, and it is also equipped with various lighting equipment. The huge stage in the center is located in a semicircular shape, and rows of auditoriums are arranged in a stepped shape, surrounding the huge stage.

At this time, more than half of the audience seats were filled.

Su Yuan and his three companions walked forward and sat down in the third row.

"This is the first time I've sat in such a good seat to watch a concert. How much does this ticket cost?"

An Ruoxue looked at the stage so close at hand and said with some emotion.

"What money? That's so vulgar! You can't buy this ticket even if you have money. I'm a VIP member of the fan club, so I can get it."

Su Yuan said proudly.

"Of course. No one else can chase stars to the extent that you do."

Su Ming joked with a smile.

"You won't understand, this is love."

Su Yuan said to Su Ming with great emotion.

"Okay, love."

Su Ming smiled and didn't take it seriously.

Just then there was a commotion on the main road next to them, and Su Ming turned his head to look over.

I saw a group of people surrounding a young man who was wearing a luxurious black fur coat, with various exotic gem rings on his hands, a cigar in his mouth and a proud look on his face.

"Get out of the way, don't you have eyes?"

At this time, a thin man with a pointy head and a cunning look arrogantly shouted at the people walking in front.

Everyone moved aside in disgust.

Su Ming looked at Su Yuan and asked curiously.

"Who are those guys?"

"Who else could it be? Prince Soleka's third son, Xikema. The one leading the way is his lackey, and his name seems to be Ximu."

Su Yuan glanced and said.

"I see."

Su Ming responded thoughtfully, but then didn't take it to heart.

Time passed by little by little, and crowds of audiences continued to enter.

The huge concert venue was quickly filled with people and it was very noisy.

When all the people entered, the door of the venue was closed.

Su Ming and others waited patiently for the concert to begin.

There was a sudden snap.

All the lights went out, as if there was a power outage.

The originally noisy scene was suddenly startled and everyone fell silent.

This was a heavenly sound that came out of nowhere.

"Hello everyone!"

"Ms. Shilis!!!"

Instantly the whole audience was boiling with excitement, and everyone shouted with great excitement.

"Thank you all for coming to the appointment. I will take you all to see the summer we agreed to last year as promised!"

Shirley's sweet voice lingered in everyone's ears.

At this moment, the surrounding scenes suddenly changed drastically, and everyone was instantly found in the vast starry sky.

"Wow!"

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

At this time, the vast starry sky changed again, and everyone appeared in a colorful star cluster.

Then the scene changed again, and everyone came to the old galaxy.

Eventually, the old galaxy continued to shrink, and a blue planet came into view.

At this time, Miss Hillis said to everyone.

"Welcome everyone to the Third Planet, the home planet of all of us. Today, let me take you back to our home planet."

Then the scene changed again, and everyone suddenly appeared on the third planet, surrounded by a golden wheat field.

A breeze blew, and the wheat fields undulated like a golden ocean.

"so beautiful!"

Everyone was immediately amazed.

"This is the third planet before the epoch. At that time, there was no pollution, no destruction, and everything was so beautiful."

Shirley explained to everyone.

At this time, the surrounding scene changed again. The white snow was beautiful and the mountains and rivers were covered with silver frost.

Soon after, the snow melted, the earth came back to life, countless new buds broke through the ground, and migratory birds returned to the sky.

Finally the sun rose, the sun shone brightly, and cicadas chirped in the lush trees.

"summer!"

Everyone shouted with joy.

At this time, the scene changed again, and everyone was seen in a huge trapezoidal classroom.

A girl wearing a blue beige striped sailor skirt, with fair skin, bright eyes like shining stars, beautiful face, tall and slender figure, appeared on the podium and spoke to everyone with a smile.

"Welcome, everyone, to the summer podium."

For a time, it also evoked the memories of youth for countless people.

Everyone shouted excitedly.

"Siris!"

At this time, Shilis looked around the entire venue gracefully, waved to everyone and said.

"A song from last summer, dedicated to everyone present here! And to every netizen! Dedicated to our lost youth."

Suddenly, beautiful singing sounded, and a young and beautiful troupe of dancers walked out from the backstage to dance with Miss Hillis.

"How much waiting there is, how much sorrow there is."

“The people in this story are not very interesting. Summer goes and comes back, but the people are no longer there.”

Shirley sang with a voice like heavenly music.

The people at the scene were also listening to this beautiful song very attentively.

Soon the song slowly faded away and the audience burst into warm applause.

"awesome!"

"It sounds great!"

"Thank you for your love, but before the concert officially begins, I hope everyone can listen to me quietly for a few words."

Shirley said to everyone with a smile.

The noisy scene suddenly became quiet.

"Although we all come from different countries, our ancestral star is the third planet. We all come from the same planet and we are all family. Although the interstellar age has arrived and we are scattered all over the universe, why should we embarrass our own family? There is a saying that goes, if you do good, you will get good, and if you do evil, you will get evil. No matter who you are, there will be moments of glory, and there will be inevitable decline! I am here to call for peace and avoid unnecessary wars!"

Shirley said to everyone.

"well said!"

"we support you!"

Countless fans echoed enthusiastically.

Su Ming couldn't help but look at Shirisi. He didn't expect that she would have such a vision.

"Thank you for your support. I am holding this concert for all the suffering people in Danube Star Sea. All the proceeds from this concert will be donated to them free of charge. In addition, I hope everyone can donate enthusiastically. I will have dinner with the first donor."

Shilis said to everyone in the audience.

However, before Hillary could finish her words, there was a sudden banging sound of a microphone.

"Hey Hey hey!"

A harsh voice interrupted Shiris's words.

Shilis was stunned for a moment.

Everyone focused their attention and looked over, only to see Sikma standing up and speaking loudly with the microphone in hand.

"Everyone has heard it. Miss Hillis has spoken. Support it. We must support it. I will donate 10 billion! Everyone, donate enthusiastically."

For a moment, everyone present looked at Xikma with displeasure.

"Isn't that Prince Soleka's third son, Sikma?"

"it's him."

"I didn't expect him to come too."

"Forget it, don't get into a conflict with him. And don't try to be taller than him, this guy is really petty."

"Yes, especially since several of his brothers have died and he is now gaining power."

At this time, Ximu, who was beside Xikma, flattered him.

"As expected of an adult, you are indeed generous, spending 1 billion at once!"

Because Nishiki was so close to the microphone, his voice was also amplified.

After hearing this, everyone looked at him with disdain, but no one stood up to speak out.

Shiris also smiled awkwardly and said to everyone.

“When you donate, please donate according to your ability.”

"Don't worry, Miss Hillis, we know what's appropriate. I'll donate 1000 million!"

"I donate 300 million!"

At this time, many nobles sitting in the front row began to shout.

"Sirisi, thank you all here!"

Shilis bowed slightly to everyone.

"Su Yuan, I know that this Xi Lisi has a strong background, but who exactly is she? Why are so many big guys giving her face?"

Su Ming was also very surprised to see the wealthy and powerful people donating generously!
You have to know that this money is to be donated to the neutral country on the other side of the Danube Sea. Under normal circumstances, these people are very stingy.

"She's from the Star of St. Jox. How can I not give her face? I won't tell you yet. My chance has come!"

Su Yuan immediately stood up and shouted in a very domineering manner.

“I’ll donate 20 billion!”

Swish!
After hearing this, everyone present turned to look at Su Yuan and talked about it in surprise.

"Who is this guy? How dare he surpass Sikma!"

"I do not know."

An Ruoxue and Lin Chuyu looked at Su Yuan in surprise. They didn't expect Su Yuan to pay so much money?
At this time, many reporters at the scene picked up their cameras and took a lot of photos of Su Yuan.

Su Ming silently turned his head away; he didn't want to be on the news.

Xikma also frowned, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and then he shouted again.

"30 million!"

"50 million!"

Su Yuan shouted without even thinking.

At this time, everyone at the scene was in an uproar and started talking.

"Five billion! Is he crazy?"

When Xikma heard that Su Yuan offered 50 billion, he didn't look very good and turned his head to look at Ximu.

Ximu immediately understood and hurried over.

He came to Su Yuan and said with a smile.

"My friend, do you know who is bidding against you? That is Lord Sikma, the son of the Grand Prince of the Shabasque Kingdom. Please give him some respect."

"I'm giving your mother a favor. I'm from the Federation!"

Su Yuan didn't give him any face and started cursing directly.

Ximu was also stunned. He didn't expect that Su Yuan was from the Federation.

Although the Kingdom of Shabasque is extremely wealthy, it would be troublesome if the other party is a federation with stationed troops, so he hurriedly left to report.

When Sikma heard the report from his subordinates, his expression became more gloomy, and then he raised his hand and shouted.

"60 million!"

"70 million!"

Su Yuan shouted unceremoniously.

"80 million!"

Sikma shouted with a slight twitch of his facial muscles.

"100 million!"

Su Yuan shouted, "Go all in!"

At this moment, the entire concert scene was in an uproar, with everyone exclaiming in amazement.

"who is this?"

“That’s amazing, 100 billion!”

Lin Chuyu and the other person were both dumbfounded.

Su Ming touched his forehead with a headache, but he did not speak to stop Su Yuan.

Xikma's expression became more and more ugly. Ten billion or more is not a small amount of money. If he takes it out, it will definitely hurt him a lot.

At this time, the subordinates beside him didn't dare to say a word.

Miss Hillis tried to persuade with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Everyone donate rationally and don't be angry."

When Sikma heard Miss Hillis, his expression changed and finally he shouted fiercely.

"150 million!"

In an instant, everyone at the concert was stunned and started talking about it.

"Did I hear you right? 150 billion?"

"This is too wealthy."

Su Yuan almost vomited blood when he heard the number Xikema called out. He wanted to call higher, but he didn't have enough money.

But Su Yuan was unwilling to give up, so he turned to look at Su Ming and said.

"Brother, lend me 100 billion!"

When Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue heard Su Yuan's words, they looked at Su Ming in confusion.

Su Ming sighed and said to Su Yuan helplessly.

"Su Yuan, it's not that I won't lend you the money. It's fine if I lend you the money, but you have to think it over carefully. If you spend 200 billion and win the competition, I guarantee that you will be on the headlines of the World Journal the next day. I've even thought of the headline for you: The young master of the Su family spent 200 billion to have dinner with Miss Shiris. Your grandfather and great-grandfather will definitely see it by then, and I believe they will definitely skin you alive. Also, I don't need to say more about the impact on the military, right?"

Su Yuan was also very conflicted when he heard Su Ming's words, and he understood the logic.

But he was unwilling to give up.

Su Ming looked at Su Yuan who was so indecisive and unable to make a decision, and then said to him.

"Follow your heart, do whatever you want, and don't regret it."

Su Yuan gritted his teeth and said when he heard this.

"I'll die for Miss Shilis!"

"alright."

Su Ming didn't waste any more time and raised his bracelet to transfer the money to Su Yuan.

Su Yuan raised his hand and shouted without hesitation.

"200 million!"

At this moment, everyone at the scene heard this number and started talking about it with their scalps tingling.

"200 million!"

"My goodness!"

"Are you crazy?"

Xikma's eyes suddenly showed a fierce look and he stood up suddenly!

The subordinates around him all stood up, all with unfriendly expressions.

When Su Ming saw this scene, he stood up, looked at Xikma and others coldly and spoke.

"What? Can't play anymore? Want to act tough?"

"That's right, you really think we are afraid of you!"

When Su Yuan saw that Su Ming supported him, he immediately shouted with full confidence.

"you!"

When Xikema heard Su Ming's words, he was immediately furious.

Shilis was also startled when she saw this scene, and looked at Su Ming in surprise. At this time, Ximu saw that Xikema was embarrassed, so he moved closer and spoke in a low voice.

"Sir, you go first, and leave the rest to me. I will handle it."

"Humph!"

Xikma then flicked his sleeves and left with his men.

The tense atmosphere suddenly subsided.

Miss Hillis immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then bowed slightly in Su Yuan's direction and said with a smile.

"I sincerely thank this gentleman on behalf of the people who have suffered in Danube Star Sea. After the concert, a special staff will lead you to the backstage."

"I won!"

Su Yuan shouted excitedly.

At this time An Ruoxue looked at Su Ming with interest and said.

"Su Ming, 100 billion! I didn't expect you to be so rich. After all this time, you turned out to be a child of a wealthy family. I really misjudged you."

"No way. If I tell you that I'm just lucky and can trace my roots back to my ancestors, would you believe me?"

Su Ming explained awkwardly.

"Do you think I should believe it?"

An Ruoxue replied with a smile.

"What I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can ask Lin Chuyu. We both went to school in District 13. We have small money, but big money is nowhere to be found."

Su Ming said with a wry smile.

An Ruoxue then turned her head and looked at Lin Chuyu.

"Is what he said true?"

"This"

Lin Chuyu didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"I hesitated. See? Men's words are deceiving. We are with you and we are trying to save you some money."

An Ruoxue teased playfully.

"Stop, I was wrong, okay."

Su Ming decisively surrendered.

"Oh Well."

Seeing Su Ming so embarrassed, An Ruoxue smiled happily.

At this time, Shilis said to everyone.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I declare the concert officially open."

As Shirley's voice fell, the concert hall suddenly darkened again.

When the lights in the concert hall came on, everyone was already on a starship sailing in the vast universe, and Shirley had already changed into a heroic captain's uniform.

At the concert, the sea of ​​fans suddenly became excited and everyone shouted excitedly.

"Siris!"

At this time, the stage flashed dazzling lights and beautiful music sounded.

Miss Hillis stepped out of thin air, strolled across the stage like an angel, and her heavenly voice rang out.

For a moment, the entire concert was silent.

Everyone was attracted by the beautiful singing and immersed in it little by little.

A quiet mind calls upon dormant memories.

Distant traveler.

Embrace the bright sunshine with both hands.

Su Ming emptied his mind and listened quietly.

At this moment he felt unprecedentedly relaxed, as if he had been healed.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.

When the concert came to an end, Miss Hillis spoke sincerely to everyone.

"Good times always pass quickly, and it's time to say goodbye again. I believe we will see each other again in the future. Thank you for your company!"

"Siris!"

Countless audiences shouted loudly.

Shiris bowed gracefully to everyone, then turned and left from the right side of the stage.

At this time, all the lights in the concert were turned on, and many fans began to leave reluctantly.

Su Ming turned his head to look at Su Yuan, only to see him take out a very exquisite gift box, check it, and then carefully put it into his pocket.

"It seems that you have been planning to ask Shader for that bracelet for a long time?"

"That's right, I have been waiting for this moment for a long time!"

Su Yuan said with great excitement.

At this time, Su Ming saw a young man wearing a work uniform, a work badge around his neck, and with some freckles on his face walking towards him, and then he said to Su Yuan.

"Okay, Miss Hillis's people are here, let's go!"

"Then I'll go first."

Su Yuan couldn't wait to get up and greet him.

Su Ming looked at Su Yuan following the staff towards the backstage and couldn't help but shook his head.

But at this moment, he suddenly saw several men in black suits with unfriendly faces, silently following Su Yuan and the others towards the backstage.

Su Ming frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

"what happened?"

Lin Chuyu noticed that Su Ming looked a little strange and asked with concern.

"nothing."

Su Ming replied calmly.

Inside the corridor backstage of the concert.

Su Yuan followed the staff inside with a happy smile on his face.

He raised his hand from time to time to adjust his bow tie, fearing that his clothes were not done properly and would leave a bad impression on Miss Hillis.

Just as they turned the corner.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew, and a big man suddenly jumped out and punched me hard.

Su Yuan's face changed slightly, and he reacted very quickly. He raised his hand, caught the opponent's fist with his bare hands, and kicked the big man hard.

boom!
The big man flew out like a kite with a broken string.

At this time, two men with fat faces rushed up at the same time and punched Su Yuan with fierce fists.

Su Yuan dodged swiftly and knocked one down with a backhand punch.

In the blink of an eye, the three people who attacked him were all knocked down.

The young staff member was dumbfounded when he saw this scene. He didn't expect that this rich man was so skilled.

"Bah! A bunch of rubbish want to sneak attack me, go back to your mother's womb and practice some more."

Su Yuan spat in disdain.

Although Su Yuan is a bit of a playboy, he has been practicing ancient martial arts since he was a child.

But before Su Yuan could feel proud, a threatening voice sounded from behind him.

"Don't move!"

Su Yuan's body suddenly stiffened and he turned his head to look over.

I saw a big man with a hideous scar on his face and fierce eyes, holding a beam gun and pointing it at Su Yuan, followed by several subordinates.

"Do you know who I am? I am a major general of the Federation. How dare you touch me?"

Su Yuan said with a dark face.

"I don't care who you are. Even the king of heaven can't stop you!"

The big man said bluntly.

Su Yuan's heart sank immediately. It was obvious that these people were coming for him.

Just as he was thinking about how to deal with it.

call out!
A beam of light shot over accurately and hit the beam gun in the big man's hand.

The big man was also startled and subconsciously turned his head to look over, only to see Lin Chuyu holding a beam gun pointing at him.

At this time, Su Ming and An Ruoxue rushed forward at an extremely fast speed.

Su Ming punched the big man in the abdomen.

boom!
The big man fell down holding his abdomen.

An Ruoxue pointed the beam gun at the others and said.

"Everyone, get down there, if you dare to move, I'll blow your heads off."

The thugs immediately walked to the wall in panic and squatted down.

Su Yuan immediately let out a long sigh and said to Su Ming.

"Why are you here?"

"If I hadn't come, you would have been in trouble, but these people were so brave that they dared to attack you."

Su Ming smiled and said.

"Humph, I'm really tired of living."

Su Yuan angrily kicked the big man lying on the ground, and the big man immediately curled up in pain.

At this time, Su Ming keenly noticed that there was the mark of the Dark Star Empire on the big man's arm, and his brows were also frowned.

But he didn't say anything and just spoke to Su Yuan.

"Okay, stop fighting and hurry up to the appointment. It's not good to be late."

"That makes sense. Can you help me check if my hair is messy?"

Su Yuan reacted immediately and asked Su Ming nervously.

"It's all right, go quickly."

Su Ming said with a smile.

"I'm leaving!"

Su Yuan immediately left in a hurry.

Su Ming said to the terrified staff beside him.

"Why don't you go call the guards?"

"it is good!"

The staff left in panic.

It didn't take long before the guard in charge of security came running over.

After Su Ming handed the fallen person to the guard, he spoke to Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue.

"Let's go too."

"Okay, but shouldn't you treat us to a nice meal, Mr. Rich?"

An Ruoxue said with a smile.

"Good, good, good."

Su Ming replied with a wry smile.

"Oh my, that sounds so forced, let's just forget it."

An Ruoxue teased playfully.

"Okay, I'll treat you, is that ok?"

Su Ming replied with a helpless smile.

Lin Chuyu, who was standing by, watched this scene and also smiled while covering her mouth.

"That's good enough, let's go have a seafood dinner!"

An Ruoxue said happily.

"it is good."

Su Ming and the other two left talking and laughing.

Late night at the Twin Hotel.

Su Ming walked towards the room with a little tiredness. At this moment, he suddenly saw a lot of people gathered at the door of Commander Aleck's room.

General Gabres, General Sigrid, Admiral Taitat, Admiral Sanida and others were all there.

Su Ming walked over and asked doubtfully.

"What are you doing here?"

Admiral Taitat and others saw that it was Su Ming coming and raised their hands to point into the room.

Su Ming turned his head to look at the half-open door, and then heard the quarrel between Lord Oakens and Lord Alecked.

"Are you crazy? Don't you know who that guy is?"

"Of course I know who he is. You don't need to remind me."

Su Ming looked at General Taitat in astonishment and asked.

"What's going on? Why are you arguing?"

"Why else? Lord Oakens and Lord Alecked have a disagreement on who to support. One wants to support the third prince, and the other wants to support the seventh prince. Now neither of them is willing to give in, and they have been arguing for a long time."

General Taitat said in a deep voice.

When Su Ming heard Admiral Taitat's words, his heart sank to the bottom.

He didn't expect that Commander Aleck would be persuaded by the other party.

At this time, the quarrel in the house became more intense, and Oakens said angrily.

"Aleck, I'm not going to waste my time talking to you. You have to listen to me on this matter. Do you want to violate the meeting?"

"Don't give me that! The parliament's order is to take down the Shabask Kingdom. Whoever you push forward will win? You pushed the Seventh Prince, but that's just your personal idea."

"The parliament has given me full authority on this matter. I am the representative of the parliament."

"When a general is away from home, I may not obey the orders of the king. I have my own judgment."

"You rock!"

bang~
There was a loud banging sound on the table.

Su Ming asked with a strange look on his face as he noticed that the quarrel was getting more intense.

"Aren't you going to go in and give them some advice?"

Admiral Taitat and others turned their heads to look at General Gabres and General Sigrid.

As a result, the two of them stood there and said with dark faces.

"Don't look at us, we don't get involved in this kind of political choice."

When Su Ming and the others heard this, they all expressed helplessness.

At this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and Oakens walked out angrily with a furious face.

Su Ming and the others were startled and quickly stood up.

Seeing so many people standing at the door, Okens spoke angrily.

"What are you all standing here for? Why don't you just go away?"

"Yes."

Admiral Taitat and others quickly responded.

"Humph!"

Okens then flicked his sleeves and turned away.

Seeing this, Su Ming hesitated for a few seconds and quickly caught up with Okens.

Soon he followed Okens back into the room, where Okens sat in a chair in great anger.

Su Ming also asked cautiously.

"My Lord, what happened?"

Okens said angrily when he heard Su Ming asking him.

"I don't know what great benefits the Third Prince Merritt promised Alecked, but he actually persuaded Alecked to support him to take the throne. This idiot doesn't even think about who Merritt is!"

"Sir, does the Third Prince have a bad reputation?"

Su Ming asked with a frown on his face.

"More than bad, that guy is a two-faced person, insidious and cunning, and he will do anything to achieve his goals. Today he can sell out the Kingdom of Apocalypse and join us, and he can sell us out another day!"

"Then sir, why don't you make it clear to Commander Aleckde that this kind of person has no integrity at all. Even if he gets promoted, he won't fulfill his promises. He is obviously writing a blank check."

"Su Ming, you don't know this. Aleck is not afraid that the third prince Merritt will not fulfill his promise. Because he has a large number of troops under his command, how dare Merritt not fulfill his promise? Moreover, Merritt will take the initiative to fulfill his promise because he needs Commander Aleck! In fact, it doesn't matter who is promoted to the position for the Federation. On the surface, there is no big difference between the third prince and the seventh prince."

Okens explained to Su Ming.

"Then why are you so strongly opposed to the Third Prince taking the throne?"

Su Ming looked at Okens with interest and asked.

"Su Ming, listen to me. Although we politicians only care about benefits, sometimes we don't care about benefits completely. This Third Prince dared to sell out Apocalypse today, and he will dare to sell us out when the Federation is weak. There is nothing he dare not do! He promised us so many benefits, and he will fulfill them in the early stage, but as time goes by, I don't believe he can bear it! To put it bluntly, this is the difference between having a full meal and having a full meal every time."

Okens said very rationally.

"Sir, I believe Commander Aleck will understand these principles, right?"

"I understand. Of course he understands. The problem is that the guy promised too many benefits. Let me tell you one bargaining chip revealed by Aleck. The third prince is willing to use the people of Apocalypse to fight to the death with the people of the Dark Star Empire. When they are both defeated, we can reap the benefits without any effort. We don't know how much effort we can save, how many deaths we can avoid, and how much military expenditure we can save with this one offer."

"The benefits promised here are really extraordinary! To be honest, I am tempted, but there is a saying that goes, no matter how sweet the poison is, it is still poison after all, and you will eventually suffer the consequences."

Su Ming said with a silent smile.

"That's the truth. The problem is that Commander Aleck doesn't listen to me, and the key is that I can't control him."

"Lord Oakens, without the help of Lord Commander Alecked, how can you support the Seventh Prince to take the throne? After all, all the troops here obey him."

"Oh, I know. That's why I quarreled with him so fiercely. Actually, if you think about it carefully, there is a reason why Aleckde was moved and chose to help the third prince. We can't blame him completely."

After Okens calmed down, he said helplessly.

"what reason?"

Su Ming asked curiously.

"In recent years, the parliament has been very short of funds and has been very stingy in allocating funds. The funds allocated to the Space Army Headquarters are also limited, and they are having a very difficult time here."

Okens said with a sigh.

When Su Ming heard this, he looked at Okens with a strange expression. After all this time, the reason still lay with the parliament.

If the money is not enough, can't Aleck find a way out himself?

As for the fact that the parliament was short of funds, Su Ming would never believe it. He probably thought that they had intercepted all the funds.

When Okens saw Su Ming looking at him strangely, he immediately said with a dark face.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Are you suspecting that we intercepted you?"

"No."

Su Ming replied awkwardly.

"No, I'm not kidding you. We really didn't withhold money from the military. It's just that the parliament's money went somewhere unknown."

Okens looked very wronged. If you didn't know better, you would think that they had embezzled the money and were standing on the moral high ground to accuse Commander Aleck.

"My Lord, I believe it."

Su Ming replied against his will. To be honest, he didn't quite believe what Okens said, what did he mean by not knowing where the money had gone? However, his EQ was not that low.

Seeing that Su Ming believed what he said, Okens' expression relaxed a lot and he stood up from his chair.

"what happened?"

Su Ming looked at Okens who had stood up in confusion.

Okens said calmly.

"No, I can't let Aleck make a mistake. I was impulsive just now and didn't explain it to him properly. I'll go talk to him again."

"what?"

Su Ming was also stunned when he heard this.

Okens then left the room and Su Ming quickly followed him.

Soon, Deputy Lord Oakens entered Commander Aleck's room again.

Su Ming stretched out his hand to close the door ajar, then leaned against the wall beside the door and listened to the movement inside.

Before long, a quarrel broke out in the house again. No one knew what Aleck said that irritated Okens and made him angry.

"Did your brain get chewed by a dog? I've explained to you so many times that guy is an ungrateful wolf who can never be fed!"

"My brain has been chewed by a dog. I think you are blind. You don't want to take the easy way, but choose the way to heaven."

Hearing this, Su Ming sighed helplessly.

"Ugh!"

He suddenly felt a little tired and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Su Ming suddenly saw Su Yuan, dejected, walking past him with a gift box in his hand.

Su Ming hurriedly walked up and asked curiously.

"Why did you come back so early? Why didn't you give away the gift in your hand?"

"Don't mention it. It's over."

Su Yuan replied very sadly.

"What's the matter? What did she say?"

Su Ming asked with concern.

"She said I was a good person."

Su Yuan said with a very painful expression.

"You are awesome. You got 200 billion for a nice guy card."

When Su Ming heard Su Yuan's words, his expression suddenly became very exciting and he couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

"Brother, please don't talk about me. I feel very uncomfortable now."

Su Yuan said in great pain.

"Okay, I won't talk about you anymore. Go to sleep."

Su Ming sighed helplessly and replied.

After listening to this, Su Yuan left dejectedly.

Su Ming looked at his back, shook his head, turned and walked towards his room.

The next morning.

Su Ming was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly when suddenly his bracelet vibrated.

He immediately opened his eyes and raised his bracelet to take a look.

"Dear Major General Su Ming, please gather at the conference hall on the 12th floor of the Gemini Hotel immediately."

After seeing this, Su Ming quickly got up, changed his clothes, washed up, and then hurriedly left the room.

When he arrived at the conference hall on the 12th floor, he saw General Gabres and other generals lined up in a neat row, all with tense expressions.

Commander Aleckde and Deputy City Lord Okens stood in front of many generals, glaring at each other.

The atmosphere at the scene was very solemn, like a powder keg.

Su Ming quickly walked over and stood beside Su Yuan.

At this time, Okens saw that everyone was present and said to Commander Aleck in a bad mood.

"You speak, or I speak."

"You're being stupid, you say."

Alec replied unhappily.

"You are stupid. I have told you many times that the Third Prince is not trustworthy at all."

"I know his situation better than you do. Even if he has ten guts, he wouldn't dare to jump in front of me."

"Okay, there's no point in talking any more! Now that all the generals are here, let's make it clear in front of everyone. Listen to me, Commander Aleckde and I have different opinions and we can't come to an agreement! So for this Xingzang event, we're going to send out two ships, with half of the 100 places for each person!"

Okens said angrily.

When Su Ming and the others heard this, they were all dumbfounded. 100 people were not enough to sail a ship.

Now, we have to split into two groups, and there is internal fighting.

However, since Oakens and Alecked were both in a state of rage, Su Ming and the others were very tactful and kept their mouths shut, and no one expressed any objection.

Then Okens said to Aleckde.

"Aleckde, let me remind you again, we have agreed that whoever wins this Xingzang competition will have to obey the other party unconditionally. Don't cheat when the time comes, everyone is watching."

"I keep my word, but you have to win first. Everyone is here now, you can choose who is willing to go with you!"

Alec replied bluntly.

"You! Hello! Su Ming, Su Yuan, Zhou Mu, Ke Ku, and Hartel, step out!"

When Okens heard what Aleck said, he was so angry that his lungs almost exploded, but he suppressed his anger and directly called out the name.

Su Ming and the other four immediately walked out of the line and stood next to Okens.

If you look closely, you can find that the five people that Oakens selected are all generals who are studying for this training. And they are all from the noble faction, that is to say, the generals of the orthodox faction, and Oakens can't select them at all.

In fact, when Admiral Taitak saw that his students were called, he also wanted to step forward to help Su Ming and the others.

But he couldn't do that, even though Commander Aleck would not stop them. But it was obvious that this was a conflict between the commander and the deputy city lord, and standing up would offend the commander.

On the other hand, Su Ming and his group were going to leave the headquarters after all.

Besides, they have a very good relationship with the commander, and it would be unjustifiable and unreasonable to stab the commander in the back at this time.

Okens glanced at the other generals present. He was not sure he could motivate them, so he put his hands behind his back and said.

"let's go!"

Su Ming and his four companions then followed Deputy City Lord Okens and left.

Not long after, Su Ming and his companions arrived at the room of Deputy City Lord Okens.

"Let's discuss this Xingzang competition."

Okens suppressed his anger and spoke as calmly as possible.

Su Ming asked worriedly when he heard this.

"Commander, are there only five of us?"

"How can there be only five people? Blacks also has ten experts."

"Who will drive the boat and give the command?"

"Don't worry about driving the boat or directing things. I will find ten people from the Imperial Court Academy to help."

Okens said in a deep voice.

"That's not even enough for fifty, right? And is our team okay? I don't know what's going on with Lord Blacks, but so far, we don't even have a pseudo-V-generation mecha. On the other hand, Commander Alec has two genuine V-generation mechas!"

Su Ming reminded with some concern.
