Chapter 829: All for your highness

Broken Star Pirate League headquarters.
The original base of the Dark Temple, the religious style at this moment is completely gone, replaced by a mixture of various exotic styles of high-tech buildings and space defense facilities.
At the periphery of the alliance headquarters, a dedicated commercial port has been opened up at this time.
After the establishment of the Pirate Alliance, the chaos in the Broken Star Domain was greatly improved.
From the Broken Star Territory, and even outside the Broken Star Territory, pirates, merchants, and trading fleets gathered here.
The shapes are rough or exquisite, and various styles of pirate ships shuttle back and forth, occasionally mixed with desperate mercenaries of various races.
The gradually improving public security and the almost negligible tax rate made the Broken Star Region quickly become the largest black market in the surrounding star region, which greatly promoted the prosperity of the Broken Star Region.
Here, chaos and order complement each other, and gradually began to have the reputation of "the city of a thousand stars".
"Mr. Antonio!"
"Antonio, long time no see, how come you busy man come here today!"
"Mr. Antonio, I was invested by Heishan Ventures. We are very optimistic about the development prospects of your caravan. Are you interested in accepting capital injection?"
"..."
Antonio walked in the commercial port, and people around him greeted him warmly from time to time, and even sought cooperation. He greeted him with smiles and responded politely one by one.
The release of the "Broken Star Escort Plan" not only brought huge and stable profits to the Pirate Alliance, but also gave birth to a large number of lucky people who made a fortune.
Antonio is undoubtedly the koi among the lucky ones.
Thanks to the first bonus to eat crabs, the "Bassano Interstellar Transport Company" under his name has now grown from a small caravan on the verge of bankruptcy to the top trading company in the surrounding star regions!
Because he had a familiar face in the Pirate League, he even established a branch of the company in the Pirate League to provide the league with some high-quality and inexpensive products.
In this way, as a pure businessman, Antonio was magically mixed in a pirate den.
Now he is familiar with this commercial port like his own back garden.
Soon, under the introduction of a familiar broker, he sold out the goods transported by his caravan this time and made a lot of money.
"Maybe soon, my business will be able to expand to the core circle of the empire..."
No worries about funds, and young and wealthy Antonio is naturally not satisfied with a safe corner, but ambitiously wants to continue to expand and strengthen the industry.
When Antonio was thinking about his business empire, many people around him suddenly looked up at the sky.
"Huh? What is that?"
"Meteor?"
Following everyone's gaze, Antonio found a stream of light piercing the sky, approaching quickly from the distant void.
"Swish!" Almost in the blink of an eye, the streamer disappeared from everyone's vision, leaving only a short light and shadow on the retina.
"Strange, there is an alliance's defense system, how can a flying object approach at this speed?"
Antonio had a wealth of sailing experience, and immediately found that the speed of this thing was a bit surprising.
He looked thoughtfully at the direction where the opponent disappeared.
"That direction... should be the military port of the alliance core area, right?"
…
"My pirate king, you... did you really defeat the second prince's fleet?"
Messiah looked at the "ghost captain" on the main seat with an expression of seeing a ghost.
"Otherwise? Keep them for the New Year?" Nie Yun said casually as if he had done a trivial thing.
The point is to keep it for the New Year?
The point is that your so-called new flagship's combat effectiveness is a bit perverted!
Chilong, Flint and Madman also have the same expression on their faces.
God knew how shocked they were when the news came back like a fairy tale.
Everyone unanimously looked at the behemoth that is said to be "organizing foreign aid" outside the porthole.
The Sea Wolf was quietly anchored in the base spaceport at this time, with its huge body occupying almost a dozen large berths.
In terms of time, the Sea Wolf arrived here even earlier than the time when they rushed back non-stop.
Just like this, you told me that when you took a break, you took the eyes of the outside world and solved the most threatening enemy?
It wasn't until this time that Messiah reacted, why a month ago, the other party asked him to launch all intelligence forces to find out the specific location of the second prince's secretly assembled fleet.
She thought that Nie Yun wanted to guard against each other, but she didn't expect it to directly defeat the other party!
"Is this vector engine so strong?" Chilong swallowed.
"The world's weapons are all invincible, but they are not broken quickly! If this can be mounted on my mech, isn't my Madman invincible?" The Madman looked frenzied.
"No wonder the two princes tried so hard to get it..."
What kind of conspiracy, in the face of this kind of power, is like a child playing house, right?
Compared to the others, while Flint was shocked, he thought more.
Such a terrible thing was actually mastered by a group of pirates like myself...
Can the emperor of the empire have a meal? Can those princes and nobles not be jealous?
For these pirates, is this a blessing or a curse?
Flint had a vague hunch.
The thief ship I’m aboard may only get stronger in the future, but the wind and waves that I need to face... I’m afraid it will also get bigger and bigger...
…
Another place in the starry sky.
An Iron Wall fleet of only 30 is moving towards the interior of the empire, and the flagship of the Viscount Iron Wall is in the center.
After receiving the news, in order to avoid the possible super-high-speed attack of the Seawolf, the Iron Wall Fleet did not even dare to regroup its troops in the Broken Star Domain and directly return to the inland of the empire in a scattered march.
Inside the Iron Wall flagship at the moment...
"My lord, in the information given by the second prince this time, the biggest enemy of this trip should be the Gemini civilization, but in fact, the biggest threat comes from an inconspicuous planet called Earth..."
"The other party belongs to the unity of everything."
"The opponent has more than 10,000 legendary mechas..."
"The opponent's large biological fortress has super-large crystallized shields, fort firepower exceeding Lv15 energy level, and power equipment comparable to high-speed battleships..."
"Now, the other party is even equipped with the ‘vector engine’, the mission’s goal, and has gained unimaginable maneuverability.
Just now, the opponent single-handedly defeated the second prince’s other fleet in just half an hour.
According to my estimation, even if all the black flagship teams are dispatched now, I am afraid that they can't do anything about it.
Even if we can beat, we can't catch each other..."
"I'm afraid it's just the opponent's warship, which is a strategic threat to the empire!"
"I suggest that the empire comprehensively re-evaluate the organization ‘All Things Become One’. The opponent’s strength is by no means under the machine race..."
On the communication light screen opposite the Viscount Tiebi, a middle-aged man in a Chinese suit was standing with his back facing him with his hands.
And the rebellious Viscount Iron Wall in the past is now doing the summary of the mission with low eyebrows.
After listening to Viscount Tiebi’s report, it took a long time before the other party slowly spoke...
"So, your mission... failed?"
Viscount Tiebi's face stiffened.
Is this the point?
"Yes, the subordinates are incompetent!" He lowered his head without refuting.
"Alfonso, you have great potential and are my most promising talent."
Viscount Tiebi heard the words "Alfonso", his eyes fluctuated slightly.
In the empire, generally only the closest person would directly address each other by name.
"Originally, I planned to make your title one step further after this mission. In the future, you will also be the best candidate to lead the Black Flagship Team.
But... you let me down..."
The middle-aged man turned around and his eyes fell on Viscount Tiebi.
He has silver hair that is close to pure white, and his temples are already pale, but his body exudes the majesty of a superior.
Silver hair, which shows that it has a close relationship with the imperial royal family.
In the empire, it is illegal to use genetic means to adjust hair color privately. If it is white, the iconic hair color unique to the royal family, it is even more a felony.
"My Lord Duke..."
Viscount Iron Wall seemed to want to explain something, but Duke Horton interrupted him directly.
"Do you know why I am disappointed in you?"
"Not because the enemy is strong, not because the mission failed, but because...you actually handled the second prince's secret guard without authorization!"
Speaking of later, Duke Horton's eyes suddenly sharpened.
Viscount Tiebi: "..."
"Don't tell me that the battlefield is ruthless and accidentally killed. Neither your Highness nor I are stupid!"
"...Yes! Lord Duke, forgive me!" Viscount Tiebi lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly.
"The other party is too defiant, relying on the second prince to back up, and the subordinates can't see it at the next time, this is..."
"Can't see it? Humph!" Duke Horton snorted coldly. "Do you know this is off his own future?"
"In the eyes of the superior, attitude is more important than ability!
The second prince is your majesty’s first heir. In the future...if you can’t gain his trust, how can you gain a foothold in the imperial military?
Your Royal Highness attaches great importance to this task. I leave it to you. I just want to increase your weight in your Highness's heart and pave the way for your future, but you have wasted this opportunity! "
"Lord Duke..." Viscount Tiebi was in a complicated mood.
Although Duke Horton was stern, but the care of his elders was everywhere in his words.
Thinking that when he was young, Duke Horton did the same, treating himself like a nephew, but Viscount Iron Wall was a bit at a loss for a while.
The Lord Duke is obviously the Lord Duke...
Does this look like being charmed by the second prince?
But soon, this dazedness turned into firmness.
The chain of evidence provided by the black butler is complete, not groundless!
You treat me with all sincerity, and I will repay it with all sincerity!
If Lord Duke is not controlled, then it is a big deal to plead guilty. If Lord Duke is really controlled...
Even if I fight for this life, I will rescue the Duke and expose the conspiracy of the second prince!
Viscount Tiebi took a deep breath. "This time the subordinate was impulsive. When the subordinate goes back, he will ask you and the second prince to apologize in person!"
"Forget it! You seem to be unable to change your temper."
At this time, Duke Horton shook his head, but his tone gradually eased.
"The matter of the unity of all things, His Royal Highness and the rest of the empire will decide by themselves.
As for your disposing of the secret guard without authorization...I will suppress it for you, but it will never happen again! Understand? "
"Yes! Subordinates dare not!"
…
Looking at the slowly dimming communication screen, Duke Horton narrowed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Lord Duke, this matter...His Royal Highness is probably already aware of it."
At this moment, an old man dressed as a housekeeper walked out of the shadow and whispered.
"I know." Duke Horton was expressionless.
"All things will come together and the intelligence of the vector engine will certainly involve your Highness's attention, but with the disposition of the sand in your Highness's eyes, I am afraid that you will not easily spare your Viscount in the future." The old man continued.
"I know."
Duke Horton turned his head and said after a long time, "Everything is done according to His Highness's will."
"But... Your Excellency is yours after all..."
"All for Your Highness!"
"…Yes."
