After waiting on the Celebration Planet for a few days, Han Xiao clearly witnessed the increase in the security level of the planet. Regular military troops arrived and took over the responsibility of defending the planet. The line of defense was tighter than anything he had seen. Be safe.
The surrounding half of the star area has entered martial law, and various advanced defense measures have been arranged to prevent various long-range strikes from threatening the celebration planet.
The intelligent plague broke out in the ancient star desert. It stands to reason that the ceremony should be held in the ancient star desert. The three major civilizations said that considering that many Transcendent A Grades are currently staying in Glittering World, they changed the venue and said that there is a symbolic meaning here, representing This is another major exploration result of the interstellar society after many years.
The heads of the three major civilizations attended the commendation ceremony together. This is a rare scene. Due to the sensitive identities of the three, this kind of event is usually held in the central Xinghai, and the venue is rarely set in other star regions, even if there is careful security. Personnel, but life is bound to have accidents. For the leaders of the three major civilizations, it is undoubtedly a risky act to rashly leave the central Xinghai.
Han Xiao assured that some forces and organizations with ulterior motives must be ready to move. Although the three major civilizations already have mature operation systems, even if the leader is assassinated, the government’s operation will not be disturbed much, but short-term chaos is inevitable, maybe because of this being watched by someone.
Of course, it is said that once there is a force that dares to do so, there will be no place to stand in the explored universe, which will lead to revenge to the death, and the relationship will always be "hatred". Besides, there are so many troops and super-a Levels get together, the success rate of assassination is basically negligible.
However, this does not prevent the intentional frame-up plan.
Han Xiao is very suspicious that the three major civilizations have other intentions in this move. Will they direct and act themselves, pretending that some outsiders are assassinating their own heads at the ceremony, and then throw the blame on the target and get an excuse for the crusade...
This direction always feels familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere...
I'm afraid I didn't give them inspiration, right
Han Xiao only experienced a "backstab" not long ago, and his memory is still fresh. At this time, his thoughts couldn't help but tend to this aspect, and he thought about it.
With his understanding of the three major civilizations, he may not be able to do such a thing. The probability of it happening is about 20%, and he can't ask Ulan Riel for confirmation.
During the few days he stayed on the planet, he did not contact the heads of the three major civilizations. He could only live in the officially arranged guest house like everyone else and wait silently.
On the day of the ceremony, a group of guests including Han Xiao took the officially arranged vehicle and were taken to the ceremony site. The venue was a large hall with an imperial style, and you could see that countless invited guests were lining up to enter the venue one after another. , no one was making a loud noise, only the rustling of whispered conversations could be heard, and the atmosphere was quite serious.
Han Xiao’s seat was arranged at the front table, with Kesuye, Kant and other peak Transcendent A Grades at the same table.
After saying hello, Han Xiao sat down next to Kesuye, glanced at the people at the same table, and asked in a low voice, "Is Tool Nation here?"
"Here, it's just a clone." Kesuye pointed to the back.
A steel lump was arranged in the distance, sitting on the edge of the venue, even if it was separated by a layer of iron, Han Xiao could smell the smell of Manison above.
"He won't make trouble at the ceremony?" Han Xiao blinked.
"Manison is not so crazy." Kant interjected on the side.
Today, Kant has become a handsome middle-aged cosmic human, with a high nose, deep eye sockets, sharp facial features, and sitting upright.
Han Xiao glanced at the security guards at the edge of the venue and whispered: "I always feel that it will not be so smooth, maybe someone will be assassinated."
"We have so many Transcendent A Grades sitting below, who is so bold?" The sun hunter snorted.
"Maybe it's self-directed and self-acted..." Han Xiao winked.
The secret master couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Han Xiao, and snorted coldly: "Come on, are you the three major civilizations, you can do such a petty thing."
"What's wrong with being stingy, it's okay if it's easy to use." Han Xiao snorted, "Want to make a bet?"
"You still dare to gamble?" The secret master was shocked.
What luck do you have in your mind
If my luck is a flawless gem, then your luck is like the moldy green dirt on the walls of a stinky gutter. How dare you bet me, a master of luck manipulating, that you are doing charity.
"Okay, what are you going to give me?"
"I made a bet with the sun hunter, and I will give him to you if I lose, how about it?" Han Xiao clamped the head of the villain on the table with two fingers and lifted it up.
"?"
The sun hunter who was lifted and wandered in the air had a black question mark on his face.
It's none of my business, I'll blow you up.
The secret master was speechless, and quickly clapped Han Xiao's hand and asked him to put down the inexplicable sun hunter, apologized, and then whispered to Han Xiao: "How can you bet on others, Although Your Excellency the Sun Hunter is a little smaller, how can you joke about his size."
"It's a good relationship, there's no way."
With a flick of his finger, Han Xiao flicked the Sun Hunter, causing the other party to glare at him, and then he stopped laughing. He has always wanted to do this since his previous life, and finally got what he wanted. With everyone's equal status, this A little joke is harmless, if you change to an ordinary Transcendent A Grade to tease the sun hunter like this, then you can basically prepare to apply for disability insurance.
"Since you don't like this bet, let me change it."
"Replace with what?"
"I know you have an opinion on me, so let's do it, you win, I stand still and let you fight for ten minutes to vent, I win, you stand still and let me fight for ten minutes, it's fair."
The secret master simply closed his mouth and turned his head, too lazy to talk to Han Xiao again.
Pull it down, who doesn't know the fleshiness of your immortal body, it's fair to your uncle, I want to live another hundred years.
A group of people chatted for a while, and suddenly a group of officers strode into the venue, surrounded by their respective leaders, filed in, the venue immediately quieted down, and the atmosphere became solemn.
The head of the empire, Ulan Riel, the glorious president Badr, and the old head of Ethereal Religion, the three of them strutted their heads in the limelight, walked up to the high platform of the venue, and sat on the specially set seats, next to the podium. .
Han Xiao has only seen the real person Ulan Riel with his own eyes, and this is the first time he has had a close encounter with Badr and the Void Spirit leader. Although these two have different temperaments, they have the same aura as Ulan Riel. People subconsciously become serious.
However, the focus of his observation was not the two leaders, but the personal guards around them, all of whom were of the same nature as Dark Emperor Clottey.
There was a male creature next to Balder. His complexion was snow-white, and his body structure was similar to that of a human being, except that there was a single straight horn facing the sky on his forehead, which forced him to keep his medium-haircut. The hair color was golden, and the texture was smooth and supple, like a lion's mane. The hair is as thick, and it is tied into a braid in the mind that hangs down to the waist, and it seems to have a part of the elf blood, and the ears are long. He has deep purple eyes and a properly proportioned mouth, but he has no nose. The part of the nose that should be flat is not ugly under the aesthetics of human beings in the universe, but it is very harmonious.
This person is wearing a smooth and gorgeous robe, embellished with pale gold and ice blue, and the whole person reveals an elegant and noble aura, with a refined and gentle temperament, like the elf king in some civilization and culture legends, this person is the brilliance The president's personal guard of the alliance, the peak Transcendent A Grade, the "Golden Ring" Oulu.
Oulu's ability is to borrow the power of a specific secondary dimension. It sounds similar to the traveler who has been stunned, but the combat power is not the same thing. This guy is on the same level as the Dark Emperor, and can compete with Ke Suye played back and forth.
Han Xiao turned his head and looked to the other side.
Following the Void Spirit leader is a huge guy, not the type of martial arts, but born with a huge body, seems to have a part of the giant blood, this person is the Void Federation Urnos, the "god-chosener" who also serves as the "god-chosen" of the great priests of the temples.
Compared with Oulu's sassy outfit, Urnos' appearance and temperament are very low-key, as if he is just an ordinary middle-aged and elderly person with wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, his expression is meticulous, and he is wearing a silver-gray sacrificial priest's robe. Eye-catching, maybe thrown into the crowd can not be found.
"Oulu and Urnos..." Han Xiao whispered to himself.
Like the Dark Emperor, these two people usually follow the leader and hardly participate in activities other than their duties. This is the first time he has seen a real person with his own eyes.
Kesuye glanced at Han Xiao, leaned over, and said casually: "It should be the first time you have seen the two of them, so let me give you a piece of advice, you and Oulu can joke and play around, but don't Go and provoke Urnos."
"How do you say it?" Han Xiao was curious.
"Oulu, although he is the head guard, his personality is different from Clottey's, he is milder and less indifferent, except for occasionally showing an inexplicable sense of superiority that is annoying, it is not bad. The guy, but Urnos... Oh, in short, don't mess with him."
"I'm even more curious when you say that. You are an ally of Void Spirit, do you know what's going on?"
"Even if I know, it's impossible to tell you. I can only say that he is recognized as the strongest Transcendent A Grade, and naturally has his reasons." Kesuye smiled lightly.
At this time, Ulan Riel stood in front of the podium, looked around the audience, and said loudly:
"Friends and guests, today, in order to recognize all the heroes who have made great contributions to the intelligent plague disaster, we hereby hold a grand award ceremony to award honors to every hero with outstanding merits.
First of all, on behalf of the three major civilizations, I would like to express my warm congratulations to the heroes of the universe who received the Medal of Honor and the honorary title today, and pay my highest respect.
We have gone through ups and downs together, and we have experienced disasters one after another. Now, we are united as one, stepping on a new disaster under our feet again.
Since the official establishment of the interstellar society at the end of the exploration calendar, generations of heroes who have a sense of historical responsibility have sacrificed their small self to take up the great self, dedicated countless efforts to our universe, led us to overcome one difficulty after another, and shaped the cornerstone of today's interstellar society. , although many have passed away, but their splendid deeds are forever passed on from generation to generation with us.
Only by crossing new mountains can we see the wider distance. Over the years, the interstellar society has achieved many achievements under the leadership of the three major civilizations. We have overcome difficulties, constantly explored the unknown universe, and expanded our territory. Today, we are in the Glittering World is a milestone achievement and the fruit of our external exploration.
Such achievements are inseparable from the concerted cooperation of the entire interstellar society. The interstellar society is an inseparable whole, and everyone contributes to it. The bond of order connects us and creates a never-ending pioneering spirit. , let us not be afraid of all difficulties and obstacles, and anyone who tries to destroy this order and unity will be the enemy of the whole universe..."
The news media broadcast Ulan Riel’s speech to the entire universe. When she finished speaking, there was a tsunami of applause in the field, and Han Xiao and other Transcendent A Grades also gave face and clapped their hands a few times.
Han Xiao could hear something in Ulan Riel's words, emphasized the importance of the collective, emphasized the correctness and achievements of the three major civilization leaders, and vaguely stabbed the Transcendent star cluster alliance and Tool Nation. We all know who the so-called "those who destroy the order and unity of the interstellar society" are implied.
Badr and the leader of the virtual spirit also came up to give a brief speech, and then entered the formal award process. One by one, the heroes came to the stage, accepted the awards from the heads of different civilizations, and made a speech. Some people have to answer one or two. The reporter's question, the process is a form.
The atmosphere of this award ceremony is formal and serious with official authority, and there will be no entertainment performances. It is like a large-scale report meeting to promote the results of the work in the whole universe. The entertainment is not considered, and everyone can only sit and wait for the above to call to your own name.
In a daze, time passed quickly, and the award ceremony soon came to an end. Only the last person was left, and everyone's eyes were focused on Han Xiao.
"Black Star, in the intelligent plague, limited the outflow of the virus, and discovered the true face of the virus's core at a critical moment, reversed our wrong strategy, helped us re-plan, changed the fate of the disaster outbreak, and at the same time in actual action, Capture the virus and destroy it, completely eliminate the hidden danger, put an end to the crisis of the second outbreak of the intelligent plague, and save countless lives.
Listening to Ulan Riel's voice, Han Xiao stood up, walked up to the stage, and shook hands with the three leaders. Countless news media reporters under the stage took pictures one after another. became white.
"Black Star has many good qualities. He is determined, flexible, and principled..." Badr said a lot of praise, and finally came to the conclusion: "In view of Black Star's achievements, we decided to jointly award Xinghai. medal."
The words fell, and many reporters and guests in the audience took a breath.
The Xinghai Medal is the highest honor symbol jointly set up since the establishment of the three major civilization structures.
Although many people had expectations in their hearts, when this moment actually happened, they were still shocked. They always felt that although Black Star’s achievements were great, there was still a certain distance from this medal. Now it seems that there are three reasons behind it. The factor that the great civilization deliberately joined.
No matter what you think in your heart, the honor is real, and the audience suddenly burst into applause.
clap clap clap
In the warm applause, Ulan Riel took out a star-like dazzling medal and placed it in the palm of his hand. The other two reached out and held it up, and handed it to Han Xiao together.
The picture seemed to freeze, and the flashlights under the stage flickered for a while, recording this historic scene.
The commotion lasted for a long time, and after dozens of seconds, the movement gradually diminished.
Han Xiao reached out and picked up the medal, pinned it to his chest, shook hands with the three of them again, and then came to the podium, coughed and started talking about the scene.
"Thank you for the love of the Scarlet Empire, Radiance Federation and Ethereal Religion. It is my honor to receive this honor. As a member of the explored universe, I have the responsibility and obligation to maintain the stability and prosperity of the universe..."
After reading a large passage according to the manuscript, Han Xiao looked up at the clock on the wall of the synagogue, and smiled slightly:
"I was the last person to receive the award. Now that the ceremony is about to end, I will stop talking at length. I will talk about the same thing. Everyone is probably tired of listening to it..."
Everyone in the audience gave a kind laughter, whether it was from the heart or smirking for face, anyway, the effect was achieved, and there was no room for mavericks who did not know awe.
Han Xiao nodded with a smile: "Anyway, what kind of person I am can be seen from what I have done so far, I believe that the interstellar society has its own views, I don't need to repeat it here, so let's hurry up Entering the question-and-answer session, don't delay everyone's time to go back and take a nap... Anyone have questions?"
Hearing this, many reporters raised their hands enthusiastically, all hoping to point to themselves.
Han Xiao was about to choose someone. At this time, a reporter in the crowd stood up and said directly:
"Your Excellency Black Star, I heard that Tool Nation Manison has also made great contributions to the intelligent plague. Without him, the three major civilizations could not find the location of the virus core. It can be said that your Star Sea Medal has three points. One or even half of it belongs to Manison... But at this award ceremony, Your Excellency Tool Nation did not receive any honor. You seem to have forgotten this person and deliberately ignored his achievements. You accepted the medal with peace of mind. Excuse me. What's your take on that?"
As soon as the words fell, the originally enthusiastic venue suddenly became quiet as if a basin of cold water had been poured over it.
Everyone moved their eyes subconsciously, looking at Tool Nation Manison, who had been indifferent on the edge of the venue.
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at the reporter who asked the question. He saw a faint sneer on the other side's face, obviously wanting to embarrass himself and the three major civilizations in public.
