Kevin, but he is a male mother in Xingtie with little Ai Li

When faced with these beings who wanted to be gods, Kevin did not harbor any luck or contempt - so the moment he came into contact with this information, Kevin did not hesitate to conduct a detailed analysis of it.

The "harmony" among intelligent beings is easier to understand: a civilization and society with perfect morality, equal distribution, no crime and not much gap conforms to the concept of "harmony".

If it just sounds like a perfect world, but the nature of human beings and even all intelligent creatures is to strive for progress. If the environment remains completely unchanged from beginning to end, then no matter how fierce the creature is, it will eventually be domesticated and become a plaything, or gradually die in such a society without competition.

Perhaps most people would yearn for such a society, but fundamentally speaking, such a form of civilization is impossible to appear. The best situation is that labor is supreme while ensuring basic living: you get what you pay for, which is reasonable.

However, under the influence of the "Harmony" star god Hippe, a social community called "Family" emerged.

They seem to be in a perfect ideal society - there is no oppression or prejudice, no sin or dispute, as if all people really understand and respect each other as if they are one family.

It is even very common for the strong to help the weak. Because I am stronger than you, I can do it and you can't, so I come to help you... I believe that except for some naturally good people, basically no one else can do this.

If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth - Kevin actually does not reject any behavior driven by profit, as long as it is not based on malicious harm to others.

From a personal perspective, Kevin certainly also hopes that there really is a place like an utopia in the world...but the existence of the "family" makes Kevin feel that it is a distorted product under the forced influence of the Star God.

As for why "order" was assimilated by "harmony", this question is even simpler.

What exactly is order? Of course, it is a group of organisms that have constant rules and act strictly with them as the center - any civilization conforms to this concept, the only difference is the degree to which their order has reached.

But no matter from which perspective, the society created by "Harmony" is obviously an ideal state of perfect order. It has transcended the existence of order since its birth and can naturally assimilate it.

This is what the star core hunter said before, the star god with a broader concept can devour the one with a smaller concept.

It's like the so-called Coleoptera would naturally be classified into the huge concept of "insects".

Like the "Harmony" Kevin saw in the simulated universe not long ago, that was probably what "He" looked like after he had devoured Taiyi. Like countless intelligent creatures, the voice of "Order" was also hidden in "Harmony", as if they were one.

As for His image, what impressed Kevin the most was the joints that were shattered like a puzzle to reveal the starry sky behind Him, and His face that was facing all directions but with only the most harmonious side facing the world.

Xipe...Such a name and the characteristics it exhibited could only make Kevin think of Xipe Totec from Aztec mythology.

Xipe Totik, who is listed as the 'God of Rebirth', usually wears peeled human skin, and the skin at the wrists will inevitably fall off... However, how could the myths on Earth be related to this universe?

Kevin shook his head slightly to get rid of the unnecessary thoughts from his mind. And Topa in front of him naturally understood when he saw his expression -

"It seems that Mr. Kevin does know about this Star God. But you are also right... You just saw Him in the simulated universe. Maybe the information that Ms. Black Tower told you is more complete than what I have here."

As he spoke, Topa raised his body and said simply and swiftly: "So, I won't make a fool of myself in this regard. My request to Mr. Kevin also happens to be related to the "family" that believes in the god of harmony, Hippe."

"You should have heard that I am a member of the company's strategic investment department, and I am one of the 'Ten Stone Hearts'. Not long ago, another member of this group, 'Gold Dust', made a request to me."

"To be honest, I'm not the same type of person as that guy, and I don't like him very much. But... this mission is very important to our Strategic Investment Department."

Chapter 273 "Pinocone"

Although they are all one of the "Ten Stone Hearts" of the "Strategic Investment Department", there are naturally upper and lower positions. This is not a republic, so of course there will be a boss.

As the leader of the 'Stone Heart Ten', that 'Diamond' is not only the director of the 'Strategic Investment Department', he is also the envoy who protects the Star God... Obviously, the latter's identity is much more important than the latter.

After all, anyone can be the head of the Strategic Investment Department, but the Amber King, who has been away from worldly affairs for many years, may not necessarily choose his messengers from the mortal world often.

As long as the 'Diamond' still holds the status of Protector of the Order, the 'Company' that worships the Amber King will never abandon him.

So, as the supervisor and guardian, Diamond is naturally the person who has the final say in the Strategic Investment Department. This is not only because of his status, but more importantly, he was promoted by several important people in the Strategic Investment Department.

Everyone knows that Topal is extremely talented. He is able to hold a high position in the company at a young age, completely breaking the record of the youngest executive in the company's history.

However, no matter how good a horse is, it still needs a mentor to bring out its strengths. Obviously, the "Diamond" is the mentor of Topal, the horse in the company.

Therefore, when faced with such an important task that could affect the entire strategic investment department, even though Topa really disliked the so-called "gold dust", she could not really ignore this task that was very important to the entire department.

After briefly explaining the cause and effect to Kevin, Topa finally said, "The famous Tarafan, a member of the seven-member board of directors, just cast his vote for the Strategic Investment Department under the lobbying of Diamond... Theoretically speaking, Mr. Kevin, you can now be considered a member of the Strategic Investment Department. We are all beneficiaries."

"At this critical moment, our Strategic Investment Department naturally cannot afford to cause any more trouble... But don't worry, my personal thanks will definitely satisfy you, Mr. Kevin."

Topa paused for a moment before speaking in a slightly serious tone, "The reason I want you to come this time is because the destination of this mission - 'Pinoconi' happens to be the territory of the 'family'."

"It was originally just a prison planet for the 'Company' to exile criminals. It was later absorbed by the 'Family' that arrived. Since then, the 'Company' knows very little about the intelligence there... You can't expect the 'Company' to plant spies on the 'Family's' territory, right?"

In a situation where everyone is almost of one mind, outsiders must either be assimilated by them or be unable to move forward.

You know, what the Family loves most is to call other worlds in song, encouraging them to embrace Harmony. Every time a new world accepts the blessing of Hippe, the Family will be overjoyed and sing the goodness of the Star God even more vigorously.

But not all the worlds that were blessed by us successfully became members of the "family" - few people mention those civilizations that perished due to stupidity or arrogance.

After all, before the other party agreed to join the "family", it would be inconvenient for them to show their strength. And when the other party completely rejected the "family's" invitation... the ending was naturally predictable.

No matter how grand and noble the "family" portrays itself, there will always be people who don't buy their story. Of course, Pinocchio, which was once used as a prison planet by the company, is definitely not one of them.

"You mean to say that Pinocchio, who were originally criminal stars of the company, still have a strong aversion to the company?" Kevin asked.

From any perspective, a group of exiled criminals have no need to have any good feelings towards the organization that exiled them. Not to mention, most of them were exiled because of their heinous crimes.

Honestly speaking, Kevin actually had no way of imagining how a group of guys who had always been evil to others could become a big family that helped each other and join the "family"?

Kevin simply couldn't imagine a group of villains valuing equality and helping each other... So, are they really still themselves?

"Still rejecting the company? No, that's not the case. The guys in the 'family' want everyone to join them, so how could they reject any organization or group?"

"Well... at least that's what it says on the surface."

Topa did not dare to speak absolutely, after all, she had never had much dealings with the "family", but their attitude towards the outside world was indeed very regular.

She even found it hard to imagine that if everyone in the "family" was truly equal and helped each other... wouldn't the existence of "transactions" completely lose any meaning? !

There is no fairness in business - otherwise, where do you think the custom of hanging street lamps came from?

"..."

Kevin was silent for a moment before asking, "So, the real difficulty is...?"

Since there was no hostility, the probability of a direct physical conflict was not very high. But Kevin didn't really think that he was there to help negotiate cooperation, after all, he didn't understand that kind of thing at all.

Kevin's way of asking others to cooperate has always been very simple and crude - put the Holy Judge of Heavenly Fire on someone's neck, isn't there only one leeway for him to agree to this?

"Well, how should I put it? After hearing about the state of the 'family', you should be able to understand it, right? The people there are all very strange."

As he spoke, Topar also subconsciously followed Kevin's example and hugged his chest, thinking: "Generally speaking, any group should have the desire to 'trade'. After all, there is no such thing as perfect in this world."

"But the 'family' is completely united. It is precisely because they love to help each other like a family that the internal distribution is so sophisticated that it is like a machine - they never need to worry about most basic things."

"So unless there are any major accidents, it's impossible to make a 'deal' with those mentally challenged guys in the 'family'. So this time, the 'gold dust' guy is going to use some other tricks."

The means of the "company" have never been limited to trading. How can it support a huge organization that spans the interstellar and connects many star seas?

Chapter 274 Black Tower: Please Don’t Leave

Just like what Kevin thought after signing the contract with the company not long ago: After all, there is no judicial institution in this universe that has both credibility and enforcement power, so both parties to a contract are the subjects of the contract.

Only when both parties have the ability to restrain each other can this contract be truly considered fair - as a huge trading organization spanning countless star seas, the Interstellar Peace Company has always been the most binding party.

In countless contracts with different people and organizations, the "Company" has always been willing to communicate with people on an equal footing within the rules it sets... Although there is a reason for this to increase its own credibility, if you don't have the corresponding strength as a foundation, you will never have a chance to reach a similar level.

It's like, cutting down trees and selling them is something that most people can obviously do, but why is it that others can sell them in piles and not you?

Kevin had no doubt whether the Interstellar Peace Company had the ability to take a piece of meat from the "family", but since it was not a "transaction" within the rules, there were too many other unnecessary possibilities.

"It seems like you have understood a little bit, Mr. Kevin?"

Topa considered herself to be a very principled businessman. Even if she occasionally needed to use some business tactics in the transaction process, it had to be completely fair and normal.

But after all, there are more than just the kind of businessmen who follow the rules. There are thieves who kill and rob, and unscrupulous merchants who eat people without leaving any bones... Aren't all these guys considered businessmen?

Naturally, there are many similar guys in the Interstellar Peace Company. As long as you don't put these things out in the open and affect the reputation of the entire company, generally speaking, no one will discipline you.

Although the methods used by the guy named "Gold Dust" are not that bloody, they are definitely not related to the normal trading scope. This is why Toppa said that he and that guy are not the same kind of people at all.

"So, since I'm planning to use means beyond the rules, I have to be prepared for the other party to turn the table over at any time... If you were here, Mr. Kevin, my safety factor would at least be multiplied several times."

Topa had already witnessed Kevin's true strength in the simulated universe, and it was even possible that that was not all he had - after all, who would easily burst out all his strength in such a simulated world for others to analyze?

About 60%... This is probably Topa's judgment of the strength Kevin showed in the simulated universe.

But even with only 60% of the strength, Topa felt that she was no match for the others - she was just an ordinary businessman, how could she possibly have the kind of devastating fighting ability that others had?

Even when she goes to war with others, most of her strength has to be entrusted to her own account.

Thinking of this, Topa's eyes suddenly turned smartly, and he whispered to Kevin: "And who knows, the self-righteous 'Gold Dust' will also suffer a Waterloo, and encounter some troubles that he can't solve himself..."

"I'll be here by then, Mr. Kevin, and you can definitely get a lot of benefits from him... When you've squeezed most of the money out of that guy, you can rescue him. You can get benefits and win favors at the same time, so why not do it?"

From this point, it can be seen that Topa really doesn't have much good feelings towards her colleague - the mission hasn't even started yet, but she has already thought about how to join forces with Kevin to trick that guy.

But then again, Kevin didn't really have much of aversion to this. After all, he didn't know the guy at all, and he was the ultimate beneficiary... He didn't seem to have any reason or angle to hate this kind of thing, right?

Moreover, judging from Topa's description, that 'Gold Dust' was obviously not a serious person.

"Yes, we should do this. This is a perfect decision that kills four birds with one stone." Topal clapped his hands and said with certainty.

In this way, the company completed the desired transaction, Kevin got enough benefits, and she herself gained happiness... He even successfully bought a lesson for "Gold Dust". Isn't this a win-win situation for all?

"After all, we have completed all the tasks that need to be done, and there is no reason for us to stay in the space station for too long. So I am now ready to set off directly to Pinocchio... Even today, interstellar travel is still unpredictable. What if we encounter some trouble on the way?"

Topa nodded slightly as he spoke: "So no matter what aspect, it is always good to prepare for a rainy day."

If she hadn't been fully prepared before every mission, how could she have reached her current position in such an extremely inward-looking company?

No matter what you do, talent and luck alone are not enough. Topa even has an internal roll on top of these two aspects... Just roll as much as you want, who can roll more than you?

So after about a few minutes of conversation, this conversation about cooperation was finally a pleasant one for both parties - Topa was very happy and Kevin was quite satisfied.

Although the price of all this is based on the pain of a certain guy, he still doesn't know anything so far, right?

But since Topa said he was leaving soon, Kevin's next step was to go to Alicia's dormitory and drag her onto the spaceship when she couldn't even stand up.

If possible, Kevin really wanted to let the guy climb onto the ship by himself so that he could learn a painful and profound lesson. However, this would inevitably cause trouble to other people on the space station, so it was temporarily rejected.

Anyway, dragging that guy's legs to the spaceship should have the same effect.

Kevin, who had gradually formed an idea in his mind, was just about to implement his version 2.0 of stick education on the naughty child, but just as he walked into the corridor of the dormitory area, an inexplicable thing hugged his thigh with a snap.

Those are the puppets left by the Black Tower in this corridor. They are everywhere, so Ms. Black Tower's spies are also everywhere.

so......

"Please, don't leave yet."

Volume 5: This is a Duel Contest

Chapter 275: Honest Black Tower: They Added Money

The logic of the story is very simple. At this moment, Heita, who is very interested in Kevin, is like a fanatical fan who wants to stare at her idol all the time, so she captured the scene of Kevin and Topa communicating without any surprise.

In fact, she had no interest in the content of the transaction between the two or the things they talked about. The only thing she was interested in from beginning to end was Kevin's body.

So obviously, what's the difference between this behavior of kidnapping Kevin when she just started her research and her wife being kidnapped when she just took off her pants? !

There is no difference between them! So at this moment, Black Tower not only felt extremely hot inside, but also very angry!

But the research process just now made Heita very clear that she not only had no way to lock Kevin in her own space station, but the consequence of doing so would only be the destruction of the space station, and the verbal agreement made before would be invalid, that's all.

So, this time, Black Tower once again sold out his dignity without hesitation - after all, what the hell was that thing? Could it be eaten?

You have to know that most people in this world are soft-hearted and do not respond to hard tactics. This has nothing to do with status, position or strength. Everyone has their own weaknesses, and Kevin is no exception.

But if you really want to use moral kidnapping to check and balance him, it is better to choose a cemetery and a coffin for yourself first, although you may not need them by then.

But it must be said that Black Tower's behavior is still very useful.

Kevin really wanted to get Heita off his lap, but she was holding him too tightly, so simply using force wouldn't have any effect, and Kevin couldn't do it directly...

"..."

"You know, I can't stay here forever, and I can't agree to something as ridiculous as a physical experiment."

Kevin was not stupid. He certainly knew what points on his body Black Tower was interested in. He also understood that with the other party's abilities, he might be able to figure out something.
