Chapter 424: Babylon

If Tang Fang knew that "Venus Pharmaceutical" and "Morning Star Casting" were cooperating with the intention of borrowing chickens to lay eggs; he knew that he would not reply on the spot, saying that it would take some time to conduct inspections and research in order to delay time and fight a protracted battle. The craftsmanship of "casting" shared biological battleships; will young people still talk nonsense with the board? Put yourself in the situation and think about it, if it was him, Bilbom, I am afraid that he would have left the hall long ago, and even blow up the entire "Christier" industrial park in anger.
What kind of medicine does that young man sell in the gourd?
...
In fact, Tang Fang didn't know the small abacus of the "Venus Star Pharmaceutical" board of directors. He just faintly felt a little bit.
He never imagined that these profiteering big capitalists would talk to him about honesty, just like humans would never make friends with ants. At this point, whether it is a politician, a businessman, or other people with authority and status, same.
The lights in the corridor stretched all the way to the end of the line of sight. Several light tubes were damaged during the battle five days ago and had not had time to be replaced. They were bright and dark, flashing sometimes dim and sometimes blazing lights.
The staff in the park passing by looked at his back with complicated expressions, their eyes were surprised and puzzled, but they were more panic.
Just as he didn’t care about the strange gazes of others, Tang Fang also didn’t pay attention to the conspiracy of the people like Bilbom. "Morning Star Casting" was just something he used to conceal his eyes. "Venus Pharmaceuticals" was unpredictable, Bilbo Mu Xiaoli hides a knife, is he not a weasel giving a New Year greeting to the rooster.
It was not until near the hangar that Ruskin brought a few high-level park officials to catch up, and the security manager's face was still pale. It should be frightened by those 120 pirate battleships, and the feeling of a knife on the neck, I believe no one will feel better. Even if the handle of the knife is in his hand.
Tang Fang didn't speak until he finally boarded the plane. Only then nodded with him and left the industrial park.
A small square box was drawn from the interlayer between the military uniform and the underwear, and a few white pills were controlled in the palm of the hand, and they were sent into the mouth tremblingly. Ruskin's face finally looked better. is on, facing Charman 5 days ago. The Pirate Fleet was less nervous than today.

"Zhiyuan..."
The tail flame of the shuttle left a string of firefly-like lights in the void outside "Christier", and was finally put into the harbor hangar of the resource supply station.
At noon on the second day. Inside the Headless Horseman glowing with its former glory, Byron looked at the Morningstar on the big screen and was silent. He wanted to go to "Babylon" with Tang Fang, but a word from the captain made him feel uncomfortable. Do not choose to stay, "I am optimistic about'Dillard'." Just five words, but it seems to contain infinite magic and countless information.
If he was allowed to choose between Terry Ferdinand and Tang Fang, he would choose the latter without hesitation. This was not only a reward for gratitude, but also carried his hope. A hope that seems beyond reach.
Stephen Sue stood not far behind him, and also watched unblinkingly as the blue and white flames gushing out of the tail of the Morningstar, turning into an afterimage and disappearing into the space of space.
The poor guy still had a bruise on his face. The panda's eyes are black and shiny, the joints are dull, and the gums are sometimes sore and numb. Before today, Stephen Sue was still swearing and moaning in bed. At first he cursed Aros, cursed Grant, cursed Tang Fang, and finally even the head of the group Byron became his "greeting" object.
Until now, the light of the instrument indicator is reflected on his brown eyes, which are colorful. Ambilight. This is somewhat similar to his swollen face, which is complicated. The mood is similar to his.
The guy named Tang Fang actually repaired more than 120 Pirate ships in 5 days. And without blinking his eyes, he handed over to Byron without leaving any monitors or making any requests.
120 battleships, that's 120 pirate battleships! Hundreds of billions of assets said that they were given away as a gift. How ironic is his relationship with Byron? Stephen Su suddenly felt that he was naive. At the beginning, he stupidly suspected that Tang Fang had a bad heart and had any untold secrets. How is the result? If he really has no plans, would he use 120 warships as bait? This is almost 50% of the strength of Byron's Apollo Pirates.
Steven Sue thought of a word---saving the abdomen of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Obviously, he is that villain, or a villain who is so stalking and asking for trouble.
"Steven, do you still have questions?"
Byron adjusted his blindfold. If there was no such thing, he was called a little white face more than a pirate. In order to make himself look more mighty, fierce, more cunning, and more characteristic, he made such a blindfold on the left. Eyes, over time, also develop a unique action ------ adjust the eye mask, just like the four-eyed boy pushing the frame on the bridge of the nose as natural.
He would only do this in two situations, one is nervous moments, such as when Charman aggressively attacked "Christier"; the other is when he is happy, because the laugh lines will cause the blindfold to shift, making him feel uncomfortable. Comfortable.
Cecilia said that this is obsessive-compulsive disorder.
"Who knows if this is Tang Fang's serial bitter trick."
Stephen Su Wu insisted on himself, but Byron was very keenly aware of something unusual. After a few hours ago, talking about Tang Fang, the king of the hills of the copycat version opened his mouth and said "that kid, that kid". Now It was replaced by "Tang Fang".
"Stephen, if you are a beautiful woman like Claire, you might have a different style if you take a look."
"What do you mean?"
...
The news of Morningstar’s departure was delivered to Bilbom by Sheridan at the first time. This could not help the "Venus Pharmaceutical" board of directors by surprise. That kid did not leave a word and just left? What about negotiations? What about cooperation? He is too obedient.
Bilbom felt that he couldn't see through the kid surnamed Tang more and more. The board of directors said it needed time to investigate. He wouldn't take it seriously, right? With his character, he shouldn't be so upright, but if he guessed that this was just a retreat of the board of directors and wanting to play tricks, then why did he leave at this point, wouldn't he be in a hurry? Such a major event as a cooperative factory. How could he be such a playful thing, this...who is advancing with retreat...
The chairman felt his mouth full of bitterness, and his calm heart as a mirror rippled.
...
Morningstar leaves the "Dillard" star system. When jumping towards "Babylon", somewhere in the Tianchao star area. A giant battleship about 1.5 kilometers long walks silently through the void of the universe. From the appearance, it has a centipede-like huge articulated body, winding all the way, like a shadow hunter walking under the night.
No matter it is the Star Covenant, Phoenix Empire, Silver Eagle Group, or the sovereign state of the Hilumbel region in the Tianchao region, there is no model similar to this giant ship, let alone a different appearance. Even the structure, style, and even the weapon system are very different.
It is black all over, with no radiance on the surface, just like a ghost, a ghost crawling out of hell, giving people fear, cold, and emptiness.
In this huge ship comparable in size to two aircraft carriers, a person wearing a black armor and a mask is handing a chip to another person who is similarly dressed and slightly wider.
"Master's command. Find Tang Fang." The voice was cold, like a smash of Bing Leng falling on the stone.
The speaker seems to be the Black 7 who caught the green-eyed man's card on the Unknown Space Station. Compared to before, he has not changed much, the same dress and the same tone.
The blackness and coldness have been integrated into his bones, and he stood there like an ice peak under the night.
"Yes..." The majestic man had a very hoarse voice, and he could have responded very simply, saying in his mouth. But it seemed that someone was slowly tearing the sandpaper.
"Old 3, you have always been reckless. If it wasn't for Old 5, I would never give this task to you. Remember. Don't be greedy, you just need to find out where the goal is, and the rest, wait for me. We will make plans after arrival."
"Yes..." Black 3's answer was still so hoarse, with no sense of rhythm at all.
"If the mission fails, what will happen to you, I want you to know better than me."
This time, Hei 3 was silent for a while before he replied: "Very clear." While speaking, the chip was pressed to his chest, like a stone sinking in a mire, slowly sucked into the armor.
"Go, be careful." Hei 7 finished speaking and turned and left, about one foot away, a stream of light emerged from the edge of the figure, slowly collapsing in the middle, and his body disappeared inch by inch, as if entering another dimension. .
Black 3 did not move. He stood there for half a minute before turning around and walking towards the hangar. The lights behind him went out as he walked away. He seemed to be walking on the border between light and darkness, like a person who lost his faith. knight.
Black 7 is right. He knows the end of the mission failure better than anyone else, because there is no Black 1 or Black 2 below him. He disagrees with Black 7's reckless description of him. He has never been reckless, but when killing people, he will be excited when he sees blood and wailing, and he is used to killing red eyes.
Weapons are used to kill people! This is his hobby, but also his pursuit.
The door of the hangar opened and Black 3 stepped in. The darkness behind it was like a sudden storm, sweeping the entire passage.
Fifteen minutes later, the fibrous material covering the central joint of the giant ship slowly spread out, like blooming petals of the underworld, a fountain-like air stream sprayed out, and the door opened up and down, and a total of 5 triangular-shaped warships got rid of their fixing devices. , Flew out from the belly of the giant ship.
After leaving the area of ​​influence of the giant ship, the five warships changed for a while. The paint was changed from black to silver, and the stern of the ship was expanded into an airfoil. A set of heavy thunder launchers appeared on both sides of the tip of the bow. Circling, a very metallic wolf head pattern was spliced ​​together. Then, the main thruster was ignited, a dazzling silver light flashed, and the five battleships disappeared.
The huge ship is still wandering in the void, like a black coffin, burying light and vitality.

The "Babylon" star system, a well-known name by the Hieronymus people, is a business sacred place that contains endless business opportunities and hides endless murderous opportunities. There are local businessmen from the Tianchao star area, as well as foreign businessmen from sovereign countries, even dead. Jupiters on the other side of the sea, the "Babylon" free market not only gathers massive commercial resources, it is more like a country, China, a link that connects countries, and has certain political significance.
"Babylon" is located in the center of the Tianchao star area, and is close to the Star Alliance according to the sphere of influence. It can be said to belong to the territory of the Star Alliance, or it can be said that it does not belong to the territory of the Star Alliance.
no doubt. It is very special. This particularity is due to historical problems, as well as deliberate indulgence by the Star Alliance government.
in those days. Many sovereign countries in the Hirombel region provided material and military assistance to the Star Alliance government to resist the attack of the Jupiter Empire. The main battlefield of the two sides is located in the "Babylon" star system and its surrounding airspace. By the end of the war, sovereign countries such as the Monya Empire and the Charles Federation were no longer limited to providing supplies and troops, and even sent large fleets to the "Babylon" battlefield.
Until the Jupiter Empire collapsed, the Star Covenant, the Phoenix Empire, and the Silver Eagle Group stood together. Considering the instability of the domestic and foreign current situation, the Star Alliance requested the sovereign state fleet to temporarily withdraw from the "Babylon" star system to avoid being taken by the Phoenix Empire. In this way, it is in the arms of all sovereign countries. They are eager to lay down their own chess pieces at the junction of the Phoenix Empire, the Star Alliance, and the Silver Eagle Group in the center of the Tianchao star area to monitor the three kingdoms of the Tianchao and obtain first-hand information.
Later, the situation in the Tianchao star area stabilized, and the Star Alliance government made representations with sovereign countries, asking them to withdraw from "Babylon." How did you know that the countries were not moved at all, and used various excuses to push away, occupying here and refused to leave. Strong? The Star Alliance did not dare, but was unwilling to present such a strategically important place to the nations. Although to a certain extent, the garrison of various countries in "Babylon" can effectively restrain the Phoenix Empire, but the fact is not the case.
After the fall of the Jupiter Empire. The expeditionary army was divided into two and turned against each other. In such an environment, how dare the Phoenix Empire provoke the nations?
"Babylon" can be described as a safe island in the sea of ​​storm, without fear of destruction.
Where did the Star League government swallow this breath, but dared to be angry and dare not speak, and later thought of a way to avenge one stone and bring benefits to itself. To enhance the national economy, this is the famous "Babylon Open Plan."
on the one hand. Since the new emperor of the Phoenix Empire came to the throne, the ruling policy formulated by the predecessors has been rejected. The relationship with the Yinying Group and the Star Alliance has eased. Although the three parties have deployed millions of troops on the "Sokanada Line", the thunder has always been low, the raindrops have been small, and the communication between civil organizations has become more frequent.
On the other hand, the "Babylon" star system belongs to the Star Alliance in a strict sense. The powers of various countries here are really unjustified. So, after many high-level consultations in the parliament, they finally voted for a port. The Open Act the "Babylon Open Plan".
The content of the plan is as follows. The "Babylon" star system is opened to the outside world as a free trade port. Any foreign business organization or individual can go to "Babylon" to engage in commerce and trade activities, and will entrust "Latier" and "Alkasi" 2 A planet with zero funds was leased and sold to the Yinying Group and the Phoenix Empire, and a super-large space station was built between the seventh planet "Utopia" and the eighth planet "Tiphon" of the star system, providing a trading place for merchants, named "Sky Garden".
After hundreds of years of war and chaos, the situation in the Tianchao star area finally stabilized. The Three Kingdoms learned from the pain and began to embark on the road of recuperation. At this time, the Star Alliance threw out the olive branch and announced the "Babylon Open Plan", which is difficult for the Phoenix Empire and the Silver Eagle Group The benefits of speech naturally received strong support from the governments of the two countries, and the countries had to choose compromise under pressure.
Today, "Babylon" is more like a mixture of embassies, a free market, and an international commercial city. It stands in the Tianchao star area and is accepted by the world.
...
The "Dillard" star system is nearly 25 light years away from "Babylon". It took 20 days for the Morningstar to finally reach its destination.
Compared with the "Jakartapur" star system, "Babylon" can be described as "vehicle flow" like a weave. Before getting close to the edge of the star system, there are countless cargo and passenger spacecraft passing by, along the void channel or Drive into the internal space of the system, or leave the control zone, start the speed engine, and escape into virtual space and time.
The Morningstar moved forward slowly and headed towards a port passage of the speed interception net~EbookFREE.me~Tang Fang sat in the captain’s seat, looking closer and closer, spraying the Star Alliance, Phoenix Empire, and Silver Eagle. The huge bulletin board of the national emblem of the Three Kingdoms took a long breath, and finally... finally came to the free market. I wonder if the materials for making the dimensional lock will be successfully collected this time, as well as the so-called "Zhiyuan" interstellar trading group. What is the origin?
Although the two planets "Tolatil" and "Alkasi" were leased to the Silver Eagle and the Phoenix Empire, most of the actual control of "Babylon" is still held in the hands of the Star Alliance, just like the customs and music on the periphery. The speed interception net is guarded by the Star Alliance navy. As for the garrison of various countries in "Babylon", after so many years of development, because the power of the Star Alliance is growing and "Babylon" has completely reduced to an international commercial metropolis. There are also the Silver Eagles and the Phoenix Empire. The garrisons of various countries have been cut and cut, and their influence on "Babylon" is shrinking. Of course, there are also reasons for deliberate indulgence by the leaders of the countries. After all, the nature of "Babylon" has been It is finalized that even if the sovereignty returns to the Star Alliance, those in the parliament dare not risk the world to abolish the free market and expel the embassies of various countries.
"Babylon" formed such a situation. To put it bluntly, it was actually the result of mutual compromise between various forces. (To be continued)
