After a busy trip, Kruze ran back and found Xiao Ran. At this time, Xiao Ran was already preparing to return home and return to the planet Altea. The biggest enemies of this mission have all been eliminated. The only thing left is to complete the promise before completing the mission. It was just an agreement made by the Princess of Altea. Liberating the entire galaxy or completely destroying the Guerra Empire was not a problem at all. There was no need for Xiao Ran to be busy with such a large army.
So Xiao Ran was ready to take his 'wives' back to Altea Star to relax and have a good rest. By the way, he could train with Guang Yanyao and the others to get familiar with the ability link, and relax in the newly built castle.
Xiao Ran was also a little surprised after seeing Cruze running towards him again: "What's wrong?"
Cruze shrugged his shoulders: "Of course I came here only if something happened. I talked to the people from those legions. One of the twenty-five legions was unlucky and was wiped out. The remaining twenty-four In the legion, those twenty small legions all agreed to become our affiliated legions.”
"The only giant legion required a meeting with the boss of the legion before making a decision. The other three large legions were a bit troublesome."
Xiao Ran asked: "What's going on."
Cruze said: "Those three legions did not come with the whole legion. The legion commander is not here and they can't make the decision. Although the size of their legion is not as large as this giant legion, the strength of the upper level is not much worse than this giant legion. , the only difference is that it cannot reach the current giant army in terms of soft power."
Hard power refers to the strength of the legion participants themselves, while soft power refers to the overall strength of the entire legion. Today's Burning Legion is really one of those whose hard power is temporarily insufficient and whose soft power is terrifyingly strong, but These won't exist until the next mission is over.
Xiao Ran frowned slightly. Xiao Ran himself felt a little troublesome when Cruze said this. After thinking about it, Xiao Ran asked: "The people here can't make the decision, so we can only let them go? What about the issue of compensation?" How did we talk about it?"
"The key is that they are willing to pay, but they may not be able to afford it. They lost the legion battle and were all captured. Their legion finally had to pay for the prisoners. This way, their legion will probably be drained."
"That means we don't know whether they can afford to pay compensation, and they can't make the decision to sign a contract and join us if the legion commander is not here?" Xiao Ran chuckled and said, "Then what do they mean?"
Kruse said: "They are willing to join the Burning Legion, but they can't make the decision."
Xiao Ran shook his head: "First set the amount of compensation and redemption amount higher, and then give them a three-day relaxation period after the mission is over, forcing their legions to join. If they don't join, they will be forced to go bankrupt and disintegrate. Then Then bring these people in and sign a contract with them to join the Burning Legion."
Kruse nodded: "Then I will do as you said. When will you meet there?"
"Now without further ado."
Kruse stood up and left in response. Not long after, several people appeared in Xiao Ran's office. In Xiao Ran's office, Zeng Jia, Basak, Dongfang Bubai, and Guang Yanyao were among the three. A bodyguard stayed in the office to ensure Xiao Ran's safety.
There were two people coming from that giant legion. They were the real boss, the black-haired man, and his retainer, the strong man, who was hidden behind the scenes.
After the two people entered Xiao Ran's office, Xiao Ran politely asked them to sit down, and then asked: "I don't know your names yet."
The black-haired man smiled bitterly when he heard Xiao Ran's words. He raised his head and said to Xiao Ran: "Commander of the Jace Empire, Nolen Jace, this is my retainer, Eye Wing Jace."
"Jess Empire, what's the name of your legion?" Xiao Ran asked: "This should also be a real empire, right?"
The black-haired man Nolen said: "Yes, the Jess Empire is the empire located in the second cantilever of the Beemons Galaxy. I am the prince of this country."
Everyone in the entire office, including Xiao Ran, kept a calm look on their faces, but the Laushi Beemons Galaxy was a galaxy that no one had even heard of.
Nolan looked at Xiao Ran's expressionless look and smiled bitterly and said: "It is a galaxy very far away from this galaxy. It is normal not to know. The entire universe is so huge and has trillions of lives and planets. No one knows the difference." What the galaxies are called in different places."
Xiao Ran nodded and said, "Then what is the purpose of you two wanting to meet me."
Nolen said: "I want to see what kind of person the leader of the legion, who is called the Vicious Legion in the super zone, is after he tricked me, but now it seems that the word vicious is obviously applied to you. Inappropriate, I mean the word vicious is far from describing your scheming and acting style."
Xiao Ran was not angry but smiled: "To be honest, you are the first person to say that I am vicious in front of us, which is very fresh."
Nolen asked: "Can you tell me, if we hadn't carelessly jumped the entire fleet into your ambush circle this time, but only sent top combat power and a small number of forces, what would you have done after we left?" What did you arrange for us after that?"
Xiao Ran asked back: "Is this important?"
“It’s important to me,” Nolen said.
"It doesn't matter if I answer you." Xiao Ran smiled and said, "If it's true as you said, we will still use an ambush and send out senior pilots as much as possible to consume your senior combat power. You see that the situation is not good and prepare to leave. , or if you didn’t surrender and leave before, there are indeed arrangements waiting for you behind. I would like to ask you, if your strength is weakened by us and your base camp is destroyed by us, where will you choose to go after leaving."
Nolen said: "We should try to gather the power of the entire Guerra Empire, or form an alliance with them, or control the Guerra Empire, let the force of the Guerra Empire consume you, and launch a decisive battle against you at the right opportunity, and During this process, I will try to hide myself as much as possible, and at the same time, I will tap into the power of the entire universe."
"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded and said: "It's pretty much what I thought. If you don't take the initiative to die if you are rude and face a force more powerful than you, this approach is indeed the safest. And what I will do to you next Action judgment is also similar.”
"In fact, maybe you have placed people in the Guerra Empire, but I have also placed people in the Guerra Empire. Not only have I placed some people within the Guerra Empire, but I have also allowed my people to create a third force in the Guerra Empire, a The Guerra Empire will never allow this force to develop, a theocratic force."
"Whether you are in contact with the Guerra Empire or looking for other forces, this theocratic force will definitely appear in your eyes. This is an additional theocratic power system that is separate from all the current Prometheus mecha systems, so you will definitely Reach out to them and find their cooperation against us.”
"But that's not all. I have also prepared a fourth force, an invader force that will regard the entire universe as an enemy."
"You don't need me to say anything more when you get to this place."
Nolen was silent for a while and nodded slightly: "We did not lose unjustly and surrendered in time. According to what you said, there are indeed more dangerous situations waiting for us. If you calculated it step by step, we might not even have the chance to fight head-on." Even if they don’t give it to us, our alliance of twenty-five legions will be completely disintegrated.”
"I am willing to sign an agreement. After the mission is over, the Jace Empire Legion will become a subordinate legion of the Burning Legion. Finally, can I ask about your strength?"
"It's hard to say based on the super zone classification, but the worst case scenario is that no one can kill me, but I can't kill anyone either."
Nolen asked: "Are the levels of the real zone all that high? Are all the participants there like you?"
Xiao Ran said: "It's hard to say, but the participants in the real zone pay more attention to strategy than bravery. Although I can also understand the saying that strength determines everything, but when the strength is the same, strategy becomes the most important thing. .”
Nolen shook his head: "Plot... This failure has nothing to do with plot. The failure was due to the collection of intelligence, the difference in strength between us, and even more to my mentality, because I never put it into perspective." You regard you as a real opponent, but I only use you as a tool, along with the other twenty-four legions."
"Very unwilling?" Xiao Ran looked at Nolen and asked with a smile: "I can feel the resentment and unwillingness in your heart. Your inner emotions are not as calm and resigned as what appears on your face. Your country Are all the princes so good at disguising their emotions, so good at controlling their expressions?"
Nolen was stunned for a moment, his face didn't change much, he just faced Xiao Ran's sudden words with silence.
"You want to see me just for one reason. You want to resolve the resentment in your heart, and you want to convince yourself, because you know that you have no choice at all next, either die or join the Burning Legion. If you want to live, you can You must follow the Burning Legion, and you have no way to vent your grievances to us, so you can only make yourself free and easy by convincing yourself."
"That's a good idea. You are a smart person who knows how to make the right choice. Now are you happy?"
Nolen closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled: "I'm convinced. I'm convinced."
Xiao Ran raised his hand: "Then sign the contract. From now on, the Jace Empire will become an affiliated legion of the Burning Legion. All permissions will be disclosed to the Burning Legion. At the same time, the Jace Empire Legion will also enjoy the secondary treatment of the corresponding Burning Legion members and shall not Betray the Burning Legion, you must not leak the information of the Burning Legion, you must not betray any members of the Burning Legion, you must not consciously cause harm to all relevant Legion members, and you must not leave the Legion. These are probably the standard templates for you to take a look at for yourself."
Nolen did not look at what popped up in front of his eyes, but directly signed for confirmation, signing the ownership contract in the name of the commander of the Jace Empire Legion.
After the other party signed the contract, Xiao Ran received a reminder. Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Then you are welcome to join the Burning Legion family. In addition, the Legion will have many rules, and there will be dedicated people to teach you. Tuition, don’t ignore these courses, you still have a lot to learn after joining the Burning Legion.”
"We have collected intelligence about you before. Your legion seems to have a camp territory? What kind of world is it?"
Noren Yemi, who has signed a contract and completely became a member of the Burning Legion, said without any concealment: "There is a world with super ancient civilizations and giant robots, but the overall technological level on the planet has not reached the level that can span the universe. To that extent, I also asked people to dig a lot, and indeed I found a lot of technology from super-ancient civilizations.”
Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows: "In that case, how did you get the battleships in your fleet?"
Nolen said: "It developed slowly. I am also a prince of the empire, and as a participant, I also have a wide source of technology, and there are many affiliated legions below that have been providing us with combat points and technology. Buy Some built some, but now after this battle there isn’t much left.”
Xiao Ran nodded lightly, leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "I understand, the territory will be taken over by the Burning Legion next, but if it continues to be in the name of your legion, all permissions must be given to the Burning Legion. All members of the legion will open it, and then I will purchase a portal to link this place with other territories under the legion’s name.”
Nolen, who has completely sold himself to Xiao Ran, will naturally not have any objections. According to normal circumstances, if they do not surrender to the Burning Legion, then this territory will eventually fall into the hands of the Burning Legion. War compensation.
Xiao Ran asked again: "What happened to those three large legions? Why didn't their legion commanders follow them?"
Nolen said: "Those three legions are not our subordinate legions, but we have a close relationship and I need to use them before hiring them. Their overall strength is worse than that of the Jess Empire, so we are working together Central City is dominated by the Jess Empire, and hiring them here this time is also to turn this world into a camp territory."
"And my initial plan was to weaken all those small and medium-sized legions and then take them over. Those legions are not part of the main force at all. When the time is almost up, the ones who will actually fight you in a decisive battle are actually our four legions and their legions. The reason why the leader didn't come was because he had his own mission, and we never thought that this mission would end up like this."
