Andre turned on the terminal, rummaged through the address book to find a communication number that he had never dialed before, and initiated a communication request.
The communication rang for a while before it was picked up.
"Hello?" A cold and gloomy male voice came from the communicator. The background sound was very lively, and it sounded like there were many people there.
"Victor." Andre called out the opponent's name in a flat tone.
The other party was silent for a while before slowly opening his mouth to ask, "Who?"
"it's me."
The other end suddenly fell silent, and Andre knew very well that Victor was restraining the urge to hang up the communication, after all, the relationship between them has never been very harmonious.
Then, the noisy background sound gradually disappeared, leaving only the trampling of boots on the hard ground.
"Hmph, are you still alive?" Victor's voice contained a hint of sarcasm, and there was some echo. It seems that he changed to a closed space to talk to him.
"Huh? Has the main star started to spread the news of my death?" Andre's expression relaxed a little, and he heard the real meaning of Victor's seemingly mocking words.
"That's not true, but I'm not blind. The royal family suddenly made such a big move. If you are still alive, I'm afraid it would be impossible."
"Royal family? Is there any change in His Majesty's body...?"
"Yes, His Majesty's condition suddenly deteriorated, and he passed away last night."
"Oh." Andre sneered, no wonder the main star who was able to contact yesterday lost contact today, it seems that someone couldn't wait, "How is Randall?"
Victor raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why don't you suspect that Randall did it?"
"Oh." There was another sneer in response.
Victor snorted and compromised, "Okay, it's Brad, he's already discussing with the parliament about the succession ceremony."
Come to think of it, Victor was participating in a parliamentary discussion just now.
"I don't care about him, I just want to know how Randall is doing?"
"I don't know about this. When I came here, I got the news that His Royal Highness Randall was overly sad and recuperating. His Royal Highness Brad will be in charge of the succession ceremony. If you don't move faster, I'm afraid your Randall Your Highness, it won't last long."
Andre's brows were tightly frowned, he knew that Victor's words were not alarmist, and Brad's ambition had been clearly revealed. He was chased by the Star Thief, and His Majesty's sudden death should be Brad's handwriting. After all, it would be a pity to let such a great opportunity pass.
"What about my fleet?"
"Your fleet, how do I know?"
"Huh?" Andre's voice rose slightly.
"I really don't know! But your bodyguards didn't move, so they must have been controlled by Brad, right? After all, there are quite a few people who are willing to see your misfortune..." Victor sneered.
Andre didn't care about Victor's ridicule at him. After all, they were not friends at all. If it weren't for the special situation, he wouldn't call him at all.
"I'm on Aux Star, and Brad should send someone to kill the weeds. I need a starship and a batch of energy emeralds."
"Oh, what you said is light, why should I help you?"
"Are you willing to let Brad take over? Then your good days are probably coming to an end." Andre asked lightly.
Victor clicked his tongue impatiently, "I'll go ask!"
Andre looked at the hung up communication with a faint smile on his face. He believed that Victor would make the right choice.
Victor is a marquis and a well-known figure among the lords. He has never dealt with Andre very much, and the two have little friendship in private. Andre is too powerful, he can be said to be specially supported by the emperor to fight against Andre, but he will always stand up and oppose anything that Andre supports.
In the eyes of ordinary people, if something really happens to Andre, then Victor will probably be the happiest one, and Brad will definitely try his best to win him over in order to be in the top position, and there will not be too many restrictions on him. On the contrary, he became the person most likely to help him.
Victor is different from the kind of little lord who is easily attracted by immediate interests. Victor is a smart man. He has the courage to fight with Andre on the bright side, but in fact he has never stepped on Andre's bottom line. He is very clear that his value is based on the fact that Andre is still there, so he knows how to grasp it. sense of proportion.
Brad is ruthless, bold and dark-hearted. He has always wanted to restore the monopoly of imperial power, and he has never done anything less about the Lord. As the saying goes, if Andre is really dismissed by Bradella, then Victor is likely to become the next Andre. Therefore, whether it is public or private, Victor will not stand on Brad's side.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Victor to send a message.
"I contacted a trader, he is not too far from the Oaks star, he will use the starship to pick you up, there is a batch of clear materials on his starship, you can buy it, but you have to pay for it yourself !"
"No problem." Andre never entangled too much in money matters.
"By the way, I just heard that Brad received a sum of money from the treasury. Where do you think he will spend the money?" Victor said gloatingly.
Andre narrowed his eyes slightly, "Let your trader move faster, and besides, protect Randall."
"Hmph, what do you need to say?" After Victor finished speaking, he ended the communication.
Where else could Brad's money be spent? It must be spent on those star thieves, let them finish the unfinished things...
"The notice goes on, everyone is ready to fight at any time, and an enemy attack may occur at any time." Andre said to his subordinates.
"Yes, sir."
***********
Sure enough, within a few hours, three starships and a large number of mechs appeared on the camp's radar.
Andre and his subordinates were ready for the battle, and Andre specially went to inform Lin Luo and Xing Mo, telling them to hide in the camp and not to go out, so as not to be accidentally injured.
Surprisingly, this time only three people including Andre played.
Andre directly gnawed on the three to four kilograms of hibiscus full of green jadeite and the piece of red jadeite that Lin Luo gambled before. The abundant wood and fire energy made his skin color very strange . His two subordinates also ate emeralds of two different colors.
"Andre, what is the attribute of your abilities?" Seeing that Andre and his subordinates were able to absorb elemental energies of two different attributes, Lin Luo couldn't help asking curiously.
"I'm non-attribute." Andre didn't hide Lin Luo's plan.
Andre's race is very special. Their body is like an energy converter, which can convert the absorbed natural elemental energy of different attributes into a power that they can control.
And Andre is the most special one in their group. His so-called no attribute is actually all attributes. He can absorb the energy of any attribute. As long as there is a steady stream of emeralds, he can exert unlimited combat power , it's just that they need to be equipped with mechas to maximize their combat effectiveness.
His subordinates don't have such abilities as him, usually they can only control single or dual attribute elemental energy. Just like Raymond, he has a single fire attribute. This time, the two subordinates who are going to fight with Andre are the only ones here who can control dual attributes.
In the previous confrontation with the star thieves, if there were only two mechas on their starship, Andre alone would have been able to beat those star thieves and escape.
An ability like Andre's, although powerful in attack and equivalent to infinite combat power, consumes too much emerald, which is simply burning money. Once the emerald is consumed, there will be no combat power.
No wonder Andre is so rich, and he is still expanding trade channels around. When he was in the empire, Andre always liked to buy emerald materials. It turned out to be the reason...
Compared with Andre's abilities, Lin Luo felt that his and Xing Mo's abilities were more sustainable.
The battle was on the verge of breaking out, and the three of them entered the mechs and rushed towards the attacking star thief group.
The Star Thieves probably didn't expect Andre and the others to rely on only three mechas to fight them against their huge force. They didn't think of attacking until Andre and the others rushed in front of them, but it was already too late...
Andre and the others have a clear goal, to attack the Star Thief's starship first. After all, the heavy weapons that can be loaded on the starship are more lethal.
Andre used a burst of supernatural fire to destroy the engine of a starship. The other two also launched attacks on the other two starships. Although these starships have energy shields as protection, they are vulnerable to powerful natural elemental attacks.
"Damn it! Hit me! If you kill one, you will get one million credits!" Nelson also led the team to fight this time. He sat in the black mecha with red eyes and angry eyes. This is the worst deal he has ever done. It's a big loss, in order to kill this man named Andre, he didn't know how many starships and mechs were damaged, almost emptied his family! If it weren't for the fact that the employer gave him a lot of money and he promised to give him a resource star after the job was completed, he really didn't want to fight this person again!
The author has something to say: [Crazy Little Theater on Moshang]
Xing Mo: According to the formula, we need to help Andre to quell the civil strife, appease the people and take power, and then we will have a younger brother, no, an ally.
Lin Xiaoluo: A bunch of fake aristocrats whose teeth are so good that eating emeralds is like eating squashy crisps are really fighting madmen? You don't cherish money, but I feel sorry for such a beautiful emerald.
Xing Xiaomo: Daughter-in-law, your adjectives are so boring, but it's also quite scary when you think about it. Senior! Please protect!
Yin Ye: Oh, now you know mine.
Lin Xiaoluo: I feel like I have entered a cult →_→
Yin Ye: Little cutie, come and hug her, see if she is fat.
Lin Xiaoluo: Well, no~ No, this is also a cult!
(Theatre: What am I doing? Sleepy? Stimulated? No, I’m just crazy (ー`・ー))
