"I don't need to stress the value of the Evolution Cube. Now this cosmic treasure coveted by countless forces is on Black Star, which is a great risk to the empire, but the cosmic civilization will not force Transcendent A Grade allies to turn in the cosmic treasure. , so acquiesced to Black Star's ownership of the Evolution Cube, but this does not mean that the Empire is at ease."
Heboar snorted lightly, "Indeed, continue."
"The Evolution Cube is in the hands of the empire to eliminate this risk. Although the Battle of Lighthouse Star was won, it also sounded the alarm within the empire. The Wei Tianqi teleporter is always a threat, think about it, what a dangerous situation that Guanghui can gather a group of Transcendent A Grade to raid the Black Star Legion headquarters at any time."
"Guanghui could have done it earlier." Heboar was unmoved.
"Yes, considering various reasons, the Radiance Federation will not take risks rashly, so it took a roundabout way to put pressure on the empire and Black Star... But if all means are ineffective, the possibility of taking risks will increase. Come higher."
Heboar was noncommittal and said lightly: "Even if there is an external threat, Ulan Riel attaches great importance to Black Star, and the empire will not force him. The success rate of your plan is negligible. I advise you to give up as soon as possible."
"Always give it a try." Lofer said slowly: "Black Star is close to the faction of the head of state of the empire and has received a lot of protection, but you also know that there are many factions within the empire. Since the emergence of the evolutionary totem, Black Star turned over to evolve. The voice of the cube is getting louder and louder, and Black Star refuses to take the Evolution Cube to settle on the parent star of the Empire, which also makes more factions firm up their minds."
Heboar frowned, "You seem to know a lot."
Hearing this, Luo Fei smiled mysteriously.
"Because... I'm not just here on behalf of Glory and Ethereal."
"Hahaha" Heboar suddenly laughed, with a playful tone, "You guys have such a big appetite that you even want to eat three, no wonder, I was wondering just now, if Black Star gave the Evolution Cube to the Empire, Guanghui and Voidling Company The last chance for adventure is gone, so that's how..."
Lofer didn't answer with a smile, and secretly sighed Sorokin's courage in his heart.
Sorokin agreed to the transaction between Guanghui and Void Spirit on the surface, and secretly contacted some factions of the empire, and changed the plan to suppress the Black Star Legion, saying that it prompted Black Star to turn in the Evolution Cube, and secretly carried out the first The second transaction made the intention of the Infinite Consortium to suppress the Black Star Legion become in line with the interests of the three.
It is not only to leave a way back, but also to maximize the interests, Sorokin is not a guy who obeys orders, he has his own interests.
The Infinite Consortium has grown to the scale it is today, and it has long stopped making war fortunes. The series of turbulence brought about by the Battle of Lighthouse Star has caused fluctuations in the stock price and market of the Infinite Consortium, and the losses are not small.
In order to prevent such a situation from happening again, Sorokin would rather become a pacifist, completely cut off the possibility of the Evolution Cube provoke a war, let the two lose the possibility of desperately taking risks, and resolve the conflict between the three major cosmic civilizations.
The evolution of the cube into the hands of the empire can eliminate the risk of cosmic turmoil.
On the surface, it promised Glory and Void Spirit, but it was actually a third-party position.
Luo Fei paused and said solemnly: "When the empire has an evolutionary cube, the income of the evolutionary totem is all captured by the empire, and Black Star is kicked out of the game. In this way, the empire has changed from a collaborator to a collaborator. The beneficiaries, enjoying all the benefits, will increase the possibility of opening their purchase rights to the outside world, so that they can meet the goals of Glory and Void Spirit's pressure... They also don't want to take risks. Take a breath."
"Solokin... Hmph, this guy is a bit interesting." Heboar narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "After saying so much, the premise is that Black Star will hand over the Evolution Cube. If not, these are all empty words. What are you going to do?"
Hearing this, Luo Fei was overjoyed. Heboar asked this, which meant that he was tempted.
"It's very simple, put internal and external pressure on Black Star at the same time, and let him see that the benefit of handing over the Evolution Cube is greater than keeping it."
"Tell me."
"In the Battle of the Lighthouse Star, Black Star achieved huge results, which sealed the mouths of the factions that asked to turn in the Evolution Cube, but the casualties of the empire are also real, as long as the empire continues to increase the loss of the evolutionary totem issue. , Black Star will encounter more pressure from within the empire, even the head of Ulan Riel can't fully suppress it... But this is the work of Glory and Void Spirit, I can't disclose it."
"What about external pressure?"
"This is about dealing with the Black Star Legion itself, so we need your help."
"If you let me betray the empire, it's a no-brainer."
Lofer smiled, "Don't worry, this is absolutely beneficial and harmless. Even if you don't target the Black Star Legion, War Realm is still profitable, and there will be no conflict with the empire."
"How to do it?"
"It's very simple, our Infinite Consortium will invest, cooperate with War Realm to expand business, regain those markets robbed by Black Star Legion, suppress Black Star Legion's business, and develop the Glittering World site together. We will use our own influence in the empire. , for you to get a better site.
You are also an ally of the empire, and the two are in legitimate business competition, and the empire will not have any opinion... Your Excellency Tyrant knows the strength of the Infinite Consortium. With our capital injection, whether the plan is successful or not, War Realm will always be in a good position. "
Hearing this, Heboar closed his eyes and pondered. After a few seconds, he opened his eyes again and replied lightly:
"Okay, I promise."
Lofer breathed a sigh of relief, his tense nerves also relaxed, and chuckled: "In this transaction, only Black Star lost, but for the sake of cosmic peace, he can only be wronged."
"Cosmic peace, huh..."
Heboar sneered in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his face, and said slowly: "Glorious Federation, Ethereal Religion, some factions of the Scarlet Empire, plus my War Realm, hum, your Infinite Consortium's actions are really not small, get it. An anti-Black Star alliance came out."
"This is business, not a personal grievance." Luo Fei smiled indifferently, "I hope he is more interesting, anyway, he will not hand in the square for nothing, and the empire will definitely give enough compensation."
Heboar secretly pouted, although he doesn't like Black Star, but in his opinion, the chance of Black Star's compromise is infinitely close to zero, and the hanging man's ability to withstand pressure is terrifying, even if Lofer's words are hysterical, he Still not optimistic about the plan of the Infinite Consortium.
But... The realm of war is not a loss, Heboar is willing to cooperate with the infinite consortium and take the opportunity to develop himself, he is not willing to sit back and watch Han Xiao throw himself farther and farther.
…
The next day, Black Star Legion headquarters.
There are still a few days before the official party, and many guests are walking around with each other, expanding their social circle, which is very lively.
Han Xiao visited Sorokin early in the morning and invited him to visit the legion headquarters, which Sorokin readily agreed.
The two chatted while wandering around in the headquarters. Han Xiao once again made a request to learn from each other, but Sorokin still declined, and Han Xiao was a little helpless.
People just don't fight, they just admit defeat, and they don't have the mentality of a strong man who refuses to accept softness.
When Han Xiao hesitated, Sorokin seemed to suddenly remember something.
"I heard that Aesop is here with you?"
Han Xiao raised his brows, "You know that shit... cough, old guy?"
"When he was an ancient, I met him a few times and invited him to join the Infinite Consortium, but unfortunately he refused." Sorokin shook his head.
This old man, Aesop, is really a socialite. Everywhere he goes, big people know him... Han Xiao's mouth twitched.
"By the way, I seem to have heard that Emersy and you are lovers?"
Han Xiao was stunned, "Where did you hear this?"
"It's rumored in many places, and I heard it by accident." Sorokin sighed, "The combination between Transcendent A Grade is too rare, I don't even remember who the last pair was."
"The head of the dignified infinite consortium actually has the time to pay attention to this kind of gossip news." Han Xiao shook his head helplessly.
"As the leader of the consortium, you need to pay attention to any news, and business opportunities are often hidden in it." Sorokin smiled.
Han Xiao rolled his eyes and suddenly remembered something, "If I remember correctly, you seem to be the successor of the Infinite Consortium, not the founder."
"Yes."
"There is very little information about you in the universe, and I am a little curious about your experience before you became Super A Grade."
"Haha, Your Excellency Black Star cares so much about my childhood?" Sorokin smiled.
In the eyes of many Transcendent A Grades, the life before being promoted to Transcendent A Grade is no different from childhood.
"Just curious." Han Xiao waved his hand.
"That's all in the past, it's nothing more than exercise and battle, nothing to mention." Sorokin shook his head with a smile, and suddenly asked: "I don't know what ambitions of Your Excellency Black Star?"
"Ambition? Does cosmic peace count?" Han Xiao joked.
"So coincidentally, so do I." Sorokin snorted.
While chatting, Han Xiao focused on two things, secretly entered the field of quantum network, contacted Aesop, and quickly hacked into Aesop's communicator.
An old face suddenly appeared in Quantum Network's field of vision, obviously startled.
"Black Star? I'm watching the show, why did you hack my communicator?!"
"Old man, I have something to ask you, do you know Sorokin?"
Aesop was stunned for a moment and asked in doubt: "I know, why did you mention him?"
"He's right next to me. I'm very curious about him. What kind of person was he when you met him before?"
Hearing this, Aesop pondered for a while, and said, "Solokin... tsk, old and cunning guy, you never know what his words are true. You'd better be cautious when dealing with him."
"Well... how is his combat power?"
"I don't know, it's better than me anyway." Aesop spread his hands.
"You're not talking nonsense." Han Xiao was speechless.
"Okay, don't bother me, quickly restore my communicator to normal, I want to continue watching the show."
Helpless to disconnect the communication, Han Xiao withdrew from the Quantum Network field of vision, turned his head and forgot about Sorokin, made up his mind, and threw a punch, the punch was as fast as lightning.
"Um?"
Sorokin responded quickly and raised his arm to block the punch.
Boom! There was not much strength in the fist, but it also made a thud, and a shock wave of air oscillated.
"... Your Excellency Black Star, what do you mean?" Sorokin narrowed his eyes.
"I still don't believe you when you say you are wasting battles, try your reflexes." Han Xiao smiled and did not hide it.
Sorokin frowned, then smiled, shook his head and said: "As a Transcendent A Grade, this responsiveness is still there, if you are a martial artist, I can't stop this punch, Your Excellency Black Star, don't scare me anymore. Now, I'm really not your opponent."
"Okay, I was reckless, I'm sorry." Han Xiao retracted his hand at will, pretending not to care.
Seeing this, Sorokin breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect that Han Xiao would not hesitate to offend him and he would take action. He thought he was forcibly trying to learn from him, but Black Star stopped after only one blow. Accident.
After thinking about it, Sorokin was relieved. Black Star once killed his affiliated forces in seconds, and in his eyes, Gray was resolute. Although he suddenly tried to test, it was unexpected, but it fit the image of Han Xiao in his heart.
However, he didn't know that the battle information triggered by this blow was enough for Han Xiao to see his old bottom.
Han Xiao quietly opened the panel, glanced at the battle prompt, and his eyes suddenly froze.
Sure enough, I guessed right, this is really not easy... The level is a question mark!
"When I was level 280, Madison was a question mark. Now that I am level 300, Sorokin is also a question mark. This guy's combat power is also at the peak super A Grade level?! A-level thinks he is weak... What is he trying to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger?"
Han Xiao's thoughts flew, and his eyes narrowed immediately.
