Chapter 567: Shadow of war

The entire palace hall fell silent, and in the circular screen in the middle, everyone in the United States of the world fell silent.
Nigel released an image video, which is an ordinary video of going to the hospital for an examination. The people in line seem to be wearing nothing strange in their clothes and clothes.
However, in the next section of name and age login information, "young people" ranging from 20 to 100 years old appeared.
The video was more than 20 minutes long, and it seemed to be shot in a hospital. Some information about the registrant was clearly seen, and everyone was shocked by his age.
"Your Majesty, have you confirmed the authenticity of the video?"
Brown asked, Nigel nodded and said.
"Please rest assured, this is a person who is familiar with Bright City. He sent a lot of information about Bright City."
The video was still playing. At this time, someone saw a person wearing a black uniform with a number 4 and a red cross. They looked like doctors and managers.
At this moment, the uniformed people in the hospital hurriedly lined up. In a short video, it can be known that these people are both managers and doctors, Nigel explained.
"These people belong to the 4th Medical Affairs Department of the Acting Department. They manage everything related to medical care, and the signs on their hats represent the level of official positions."
At this moment, when the video was about to end, a smiling woman came in, followed by a bunch of people, including media reporters and a lot of people from other disciplines. This woman looked young and could only look good. It's pretty, but everyone present felt that something was wrong, because the woman in the video was wearing a 13-division uniform.
And what made many people present feel that something is wrong is that this woman looks so young that she can sit in such a high position. The hat she wears is a silver five-pointed star.
"This woman's name is Le Xiao. I heard Noah, a bright city scientist who often talks to me, said that she is only 26 years old and is a rare genius in Bright City for thousands of years."
Nigel continued to explain that Brown, who was standing in the middle of the platform, became a little suspicious, and then Nigel explained something about the Department of Action, and everyone present understood it.
The Action Section has 13 sections, of which 13 section chiefs and 13 secretaries are in charge of issues large and small in the city. There is also a general affairs section responsible for the connection between the 13 sections and the Congress, as well as handling most of the matters. Above the Congress are the seven gods.
Suddenly, the people on both sides who were still whispering were stunned. At the end of watching the video, the secretary of 13 subjects fell face to face, and a bunch of people rushed over, seeming to be stepping on the water. ended.
"Is it really a genius?"
Hert was a little unbelievable. Seeing that this position was about the same as himself, an important figure in a country slipped to the ground easily and stumbled firmly.
"There are other videos, and we can continue to play them if you like."
Nigel said, smiling lightly, and then said.
"Please don't question the authenticity of the information, as I just said, the person who is familiar with Bright City also mentioned the power of this genius."
Brown smiled and nodded.
"Please continue to play some videos. We have a lot of time today, and we also hope to have a more in-depth conversation with Asgard."
The next video is a short video about the 13 section chiefs and secretaries of the Acting Section. Their ages are clearly reported, some are private videos, and some are interview videos.
Lu la la la la la
At this time, the video showed the secretary of the 13th department, Le Xiao, who was singing in front of the reporters with gestures, and the singing sounded very ordinary, because the reporter asked Le Xiao how to decompress and so on. She demonstrated the lame-looking dance and sang childish rhymes.
Complicated expressions filled everyone's cheeks, and Kagerina smiled slightly.
"Really a young girl full of energy, sitting in such a position so young."
Nigel smiled and nodded.
"President Brown, do you have any other questions? We can answer them one by one."
Brown's face was still suspicious at this time, his hands were always tapping the tabletop, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
"My Majesty, have you talked to Noah, the contact person in Bright City? Regarding life span."
Nigel squinted at Hert beside him, smiled and shook his head.
"We haven't talked about it directly, but we have discussed this question, how long the end of human life can be extended, Mr. Noah completely avoided many of my questions."
Brown nodded.
"Then Her Majesty, what should we talk about today?"
Brown asked, Nigel was just about to speak when Kagerina stood up.
"The question of war!"
All the people present all looked at Kagerina, and Hert stood up.
"We have carried out all aspects of weapon servicing, as well as personnel arrangements and training, and we can launch war at any time."
Hert's back was cold at this time. He didn't expect that Kagerina had really planned to use force. It was obvious that the war was only still in the discussion stage, but it was directly raised at such an important meeting.
Sure enough, the opposing president seemed speechless.
"Your Majesty, it may not be easy to start a war in this era. Our country's situation may not allow it for the time being."
Brown said with embarrassment, Kagerina said with a smile.
"It is not only war that can solve the problem. War is only the only means after the negotiation fails. We only hope that you can make some preparations and cross the ocean to the Bright City."
Brown laughed awkwardly, then shook his head.
"Such a problem is not something that I can decide alone. Your Majesty, our government is different from yours, it is not a dictatorship!"
Brown's words seemed harsh, and Kagerina laughed.
"I can tell you clearly, Your Excellency, Bright City has successfully developed a life-extending drug that can increase the survival time of humans by more than five times."
Kagerina's words caused a commotion on both sides who had been silent, and even Brown showed a shocked expression.
However, the meeting did not have a substantive conclusion. Soon Brown terminated the video conference on the grounds of going on energy issues, and Kagerina sat back on the throne.
Hert and Nigel both returned to their seats, and the discussion in the hall gradually ceased.
"Everyone, there will be a grand banquet in the palace tonight. Please enjoy it, and hope you can prepare for the war."
When the meeting was over, Kagerina did not continue to say anything. After everyone got up and bowed, they waited for Kagerina to leave and went in towards the aisles on the left and right sides. Hert's mood was a bit bad and inexplicable. Feel uneasy.
Nigel winked at him again, and Hull agreed.
Soon people from several departments came to a spacious hall where food was already placed. Most of the food was plant and only a small part of the meat, most of which were produced by biological proliferation technology.
Hult took several commanders and staff officers of his group army to find a place with few people. He did not intend to have too much communication with people in other departments. He had had a lot of problems with people in several departments before. friction.
"General, need to speed up..."
Hert shook his head.
"Just follow the original pace, don't act rashly for now."
Then Hult ordered everyone to disperse and not to gather together. He led Feiya towards the garden next to the banquet hall.
At this moment, behind the council chamber, in the queen’s private room, Kagerina was holding a glass of red wine and quietly gazing at some of the divided screens in front of her. It was the situation in the banquet hall. She took a sip of wine and looked Stared at Hert and his adjutant Feya.
"Call Nigel in."
Kagerina said, and then went to the sofa and sat down, holding the wine glass in her hand, feeling the bright red color of the wine, and she showed a cold smile.
After a while, the door to the room was opened, and Nigel walked in and bowed respectfully.
"Your Majesty, is there anything to do with your subordinates?"
"Sit down Nigel."
Nigel sat down on a chair in front of Kagerina, sitting very formally, looking a little restrained.
"Want to drink?"
Kagerina asked, Nigel smiled and stood up, bowed again and poured a small glass of wine by herself.
"You have a good relationship with Hert, don't you!"
Nigel nodded.
"We had a better relationship when we were children, but we rarely communicate now."
Kagerina laughed.
"Hult is very capable!"
"It is true that the Third Army was the same cumbersome army in our military department ten years ago, but it is different now."
Kagerina motioned to Nigel, who was holding the wine, to drink. Nigel took a sip and smiled and put down the glass.
"Your Majesty, if you have anything, you can tell your subordinates directly, and your subordinates are willing to go through fire and water for your majesty!"
Nigel stood up, bowed ninety degrees, and Kagerina motioned for him to sit down.
"General Hert is loved by his subordinates and the citizens, isn't he?"
Nigel did not nod or shook his head, but smiled awkwardly.
"The people also like you, Your Majesty the Queen! You are the Queen of Asgard!"
"Very correct answer, and very rigid, Nigel, I didn't come to you to hear this compliment."
Nigel grumbled, his heart was a little uneasy about this, the queen in front of him was different from the previous queens and kings, she was more like the first queen, tough and cold-blooded.
At the beginning of the ruling period, please wipe out most of the people. During the decades of ruling, they have cleaned countless times. At least Nigel can remember that Kagerina has been cleaned 6 times. , Three of them are secret.
Although many people are loyal on the surface, they have a lot of complaints about the queen in private, and even do things that go against the will of the queen. The situation in the sky space kingdom has now become very delicate.
As far as Nigel knows, the five armies are all conceived, because behind them are different interest groups, and the other departments are also the same. On the surface, everyone is harmonious, but in fact, privately, there are often some intrigues. .
"Everyone is keen on the fight for power."
Nigel had already begun to seep sweat on his forehead, but he could only continue to endure it. He probably knew what the queen wanted to say, but Nigel knew more clearly that he had to endure it.
"I heard recently that many space stations are not level."
"Please don't believe these rumors. Your Majesty, the space station is operating normally. Although there will be some minor disturbances, the whole country..."
Katerina drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then giggled.
"Hult is more suitable to be the king here, isn't he?"
Nigel's heart was about to jump out, and he immediately laughed awkwardly.
"Your Majesty, please don't make such a joke."
Kagerina laughed loudly.
"Nigel, if you are going to meet someone next time, please help me convey a word, so you can do it yourself!"
Kagerina said, waved her hand, Nigel stood up, bowed, and walked back slowly. At the moment of exiting the gate, the sweat on both sides of Nigel's forehead dripped down and he swallowed. One mouthful, a wave of fear rose from the bottom of my heart.
The banquet lasted until 8 o'clock in the evening. Apart from the founders, people from other departments left the palace one after another.
Hert was a little drunk, Feiya supported him, Feiya's face was very bad, although it was a banquet, but at the banquet, you need to deal with all aspects of things, especially those who do good things, constantly leaning over. , Although Hult has been patient, but he seems to have reached the limit.
"General!"
At this time, on a floating car, a fat man beckoned with a smile.
"Helt, a few days ago, you said that the goods produced by our company would be purchased at a price higher than that of other army groups. The result was not only lower than the previous price, but you still refuse to pay!"
Hult said with an awkward smile.
"Master Yinuo, I'm really sorry, there may be a little problem in the middle link, but I promise I will give you an explanation from Master Yinuo next month."
As Hult spoke, Yinuo snorted.
"Explain? No need, Hert, you should think about which side you are on and where you are. You should think clearly about these things."
Hert could only bow slightly, the car door closed directly, and the car slowly flew out towards the distance.
At this time, Hert winked at Fea, and the two immediately got into a car. At the moment they got into the car, the two quickly opened a hole in the middle of the car and jumped down directly. Below is a drainage pipe. .
Soon the car flew out towards the distance. Hert was going to meet Nigel from the sewer pipe. He had just arrived underground, and the lights flickered in the distance. The two of them touched the wall and left quickly. stand up.
Soon they came to a place covered by a light source. In front of them stood a shrewd and capable young man who was the staff member of the Second Army.
"General Hert, Miss Feia, please come with me."
The Second Army is responsible for the daily maintenance and inspection of the sewers in the City of Creators, so they can easily shuttle through the underground drainage system.
The two followed Hughes through the long and dark sewers, and there was an unpleasant smell in the water, but they could only bear it now.
"Here we are, please come in, please."
At the door of a maintenance room, the two walked in, Hughes closed the door immediately, the unpleasant smell disappeared, Nigel sat on a chair with a smile on his face, and a bottle of good wine was placed on it. , And four wine glasses.
"Is it really okay?"
Hult asked, Nigel nodded.
"It's growing tonight, let's talk about it slowly."
As soon as Nigel finished speaking, Hert walked over, poured a glass of wine in his hand, and drank it in one breath.
"Remembering the old will be avoided, Nigel, what do you mean by what you said during the day?"
"You are planning a rebellion!"
Click
Feiya had already taken out the gun and aimed it at Nigel's head in an instant, and the insurance had been released. This action was very quick, making Hugh and Nigel who were present were a little caught off guard, and they raised their hands obediently.
"Is this really good?"
Nigel said, Feiya's finger holding the trigger was already pressed on the trigger, and Hert's expression became cold at this time.
"Convince me Nigel, otherwise..."
Nigel nodded and said, and then he directly took out a video and placed it directly on a crystal panel that was slowly growing. It was the conversation between Nigel and Queen Kagerina today. In the end, Nigel felt horrified by the queen's self-confidence.
"Your business has been exposed, what should we do with Hert, do you know why the queen has not dealt with your Third Army? Even in the name of the queen, help you purchase some arms."
Feiya stared at Nigel solemnly, Hert pressed Feiya's hand, and after a confrontation, Feiya put down the gun in her hand.
Nigel smiled and poured a glass of wine, then took a sip, Hult figured it out.
"It's because the queen wants to get the life-extension medicine of Bright City."
Nigel smiled and nodded.
"You know, besides me, there are many founders and people from the group army and people from Bright City who have spoken to each other. They call each other an aboriginal. Do you know what this means?"
Hert nodded slightly, he naturally knew that the technological power of the Skyspace Nation was not comparable to the bright city on the ground.
"Country and country can negotiate only on equal positions, and if they are not equal, it will become a dialogue between barbarism and civilization. This is inevitable. The queen's will to go to war has been decided, and she naturally does not want this. At that time, a war broke out within the country, and the Queen praised you several times today, which shows that she still has expectations of you."
Hult laughed dullly.
"Expect? How did she treat my parents, how did she treat our family, now in our family, I am the only one who is intact."
Nigel naturally knew that this was Hert's heart knot. For Hert, Kagerina was not an object of loyalty, but an object of revenge.
In the past, the tragedy that gave birth to the Hert family was caused by the queen alone. People in their family worked hard for the queen and were called as chess pieces, but they were cruelly abandoned.
Hert is able to have today's position. Although the queen pulled it up with one hand, his ability and personality are the reasons why he can stand in this position.
Nigel admits that he does not have the ability of Hert. He only relied on the shadow of the family to reluctantly stand in this position. Now the generals of the Five Army Groups comment that the other four can only serve as Hert's. Foil.
"Don't worry, Hert, your opportunity will come, I can help you."
"What do you mean?"
Hult asked, Nigel smiled and poured a glass of wine.
"Your best time is not now, but after the war, I will go to Bright City with you next year. Then we can discuss some future things. Only at that time will the timing be considered real. Mature."
Hult swallowed, Nigel continued.
"Although you have made enough preparations, the wise men must have lost everything. You think the queen knows a little bit about your plan."
Hult shook his head, Nigel stretched out ten fingers.
"She already knows your 100% plan, and those chess pieces under your hand, don't hesitate when you should give them up. I just want to warn you tonight, even though your subordinates support you, and if problems arise , If the plan fails, they can abandon you at any time. You have to think clearly about the pros and cons to do Hert."
Feiya stared at Nigel fiercely, but she had to admit that what Nigel said was the truth.
Nigel got up after taking a sip and patted Hert on the shoulder again.
"I have a plan. The queen will turn a blind eye to something, and then just push some to the clones. Those who know your identity, I remember it is called Stokoff. Right!"
"Already know this point?"
Hert looked at Nigel in surprise.
"After all, Stokov is your father. Although the clone knows everything about you, it only needs to create some rebellions that are beneficial to all of us at the right time, and then we will solve these problems by ourselves, Queen Naturally, I don’t know anything.
Hert hesitated a little, but finally he nodded.
"What about the plan?"
"Of course there is, we will talk about the future distribution tonight."
Feiya still didn't believe in Nigel, but after seeing nothing in the video, he felt a little relieved.
"Brilliant City, maybe not as we thought, just some aborigines."
Nigel laughed.
"Although I am not too clear, one thing is certain, gods, creatures, really exist in the city."
