Chapter 278 This is the cornerstone number
Although the conversation with Li Yu ended in a relaxed atmosphere, Sean couldn't feel relaxed.
Judging from Li Yu's usual style, his performance just now was undoubtedly a loss of composure. He could do things more silently. And the separate conversation with Sean was enough to reveal his irritability.
As the unquestionable leader of the tripartite alliance, Li Yu easily spreads this emotion to others, which leads to a complete collapse of morale, so he asked Sean to talk to him alone.
Sean's psychological quality is indeed better than that of the members of the Silver Knights, but after the conversation, he still inevitably feels the same anxiety about his future.
The situation they have to face next is far less relaxed than Li Yu's performance in front of Nan Wuyou and others. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is internal and external difficulties.
Internally, although Bai Yin is united, Nan Wuyou's position is not stable. The conversation between Li Yu and Nan Wuyou is actually in an almost sensational and deceptive way to make Nan Wuyou firmly resist to the end, and not be led by Nan Yujin.
In addition, although the Hutts helped a lot in their previous escape and had very clear interest demands, it would be too naive to say how credible this slave merchant was. Even if the Hutts turned against each other in the next moment, the Hutts turned against each other and asked the Gamo Guard to encircle and suppress the silver with heavy weapons, Sean would not feel very surprised.
As for the great external pressure, it goes without saying that if Qiankun Security has expected them to go to [Kun] to seek a breakthrough, then even if Baiyin, Nan Wuyou, and Jedi apprentice work together to face the challenge, the result is likely to be annihilated.
Even Sean could not imagine how the Hutts could smuggle everyone to a highly alert capital planet.
No matter how long Qiankun Security has been safe, it is still preparing for war all year round. Front-line troops must not only participate in the actual combat of encirclement and suppression of pirate organizations on a daily basis, but also face the troubles of civil organizations like Baiyin, which can be said to have experienced many battles.
At least with what Sean saw with his own eyes, the elite level of Qiankun Security was also first-class in the entire Republic. So it is hard to imagine that they would make extremely stupid mistakes, allowing the Hutts to send so many important criminals into the capital, let alone Li Yu actually wanted to drive the Silver Crown together!
Even if the Hutts had a godson who served as a director on the board of directors of Qiankun Group, they might not be able to do this. After all, this is the capital of the entire galaxy and the headquarters of the entire group.
If the armed forces smuggled through this easy, the political structure of the Qianxing system could not exist smoothly for thousands of years.
However, if we cannot break through the defense circle of Qiankun Security, there is no way to talk about what we want to do next.
This internal and external difficulties made Sean inevitably fall into a little anxious and had to calm himself down frequently through meditation, but the uneasiness in his heart still brewed with time.
——
While Sean was trying to calm down, Nan Wuyou finally made up his mind.
Perhaps she was really moved by Li Yu's words, or perhaps she could not trust Nan Yujin in the end, but she finally promised to cooperate with Li Yu and continue to go to [Kun].
After the banquet ended, the Hutts stopped showing up and only let their subordinates pass on messages and asked everyone to wait for his news. So everyone from the Silver Number stayed on this strange and pungent cornerstone number and waited for nothing.
The senior crew members could enjoy themselves, as if they could not feel the pressure at all. They had long been accustomed to throwing all the pressure to the omnipotent Knight Commander, and only went through fire and water when Li Yu ordered it.
So Sean watched as the crew gradually got into a gang with the Hutts.
At first, Xu Bo was extremely bored and instigated Anping to fight against the strong man of Gamo. However, Anping did not use the robotic arm to overturn several elite guards of Gamo people, and continued to provoke the guard captain who was one of the same tribe and defeated the already tired Anping.
Later, Lu Nan appeared to complete revenge for Anping, but provoked two passers-by Kratuyin people. They looked quite similar to the red-faced people in [Tianhuang District]. They were obviously the confidant elites of the Hutts, but the muscles on these two people were almost unnatural, and they were obviously fighting factions.
Lu Nan barely tied with one of them and then lost to the next one.
Lu Nan's defeat led to the Lizhiren. Although he always stood alone, his center of gravity seemed to be unstable and he was too heavy to the top, the lower plate was actually incredibly steady. He easily defeated the Kratuyins and threw out several irritable and overestimated Dags with one against five.
After the Dag people entered the field, the struggle spread to the entire Cornerstone ship. The elite soldiers and generals under the Hut people rushed to join in the fun. Based on Kong Zhang's unique aesthetic, although the crew on the Cornerstone is not as capable as Anping and Lu Nan, most of them have burly and strong figures and are not inferior to brute force.
The two sides fought back and forth, and it was difficult to distinguish between the superiority and the atmosphere became more and more popular. Those who had been defeated returned to the battlefield after a short rest, while those standing on the battlefield tried to challenge stronger opponents.
On the outside, some thin crew members who were difficult to participate in the battle started gambling and reselled snacks and drinks.
Seeing this incident caused by an accident, it was about to make a big fuss, and an unexpected factor ended everything.
——
Anping, Lu Nan, stood on the ground tiredly, posing as a loser in a state of sweat.
Several half-naked, panting Gamos fell not far away, and weak spit was squeezed out between their fangs. The Kratuyin tried hard to maintain their standing posture, but their faces looked ugly like dead people. The Dags surrounded them and shouted and scolded them, trying to get them to stand up and fight again, but they were powerless to turn the world back.
Among the losers, Xu Bo, the initiator of the entire farce, raised a slender arm high and announced excitedly.
"I announce: The champion of this Hercules competition is the controller of machinery, the female demon who dominates steel, the master of Thunder and Wind and Rain, Zhuang~~ Yuan Ying!"
The dragon girl who was raised by him looked panic and shy, and her eyes drifted around, as if she was seeking help.
But the only response to her was warm applause and admiring eyes.
After all, no one would have thought that this seemingly timid girl had an amazing power to defeat all the aces in a row. When the aces were defeated one after another, no one in the audience was qualified to challenge her and compete for the championship.
But for Zhuang Yuanying himself, this was a purely unscathing disaster.
She walked out of the Silver, just wanted to ask Li Yu for a core control chip that only he would carry with him to further modify the hull. However, Li Yu did not see it, but instead was caught by the good-looking Xu Bo, and inexplicably participated in a strong man competition and won the championship.
This kind of warm occasion is like torture for an introvert. Zhuang Yuanying tried to break free from Xu Bo's hand several times, but Xu Bo used all his "small power" to hold it firmly.
"Xiaozhuang, just believe me once, just treat it as helping me a lot, and this is also helping you!"
For the sake of being his teammates, Zhuang Yuanying endured the discomfort and completed the simple championship award process. She held a temporary welded heavy alloy trophy handed over by Xu Bo in her arms, and then left uneasy.
As for Xu Bo, after the award ceremony, he let go of the tortured Zhuang Yuanying and ran to continue to brag about the cold-blooded legend of the steel dominator with the crew on the cornerstone.
Sean witnessed the whole process, and felt both funny and strange.
Although Xu Bo is occasionally a little ridiculous and a little noisy, he does not make jokes about Zhuang Yuanying at this time. In fact, this carefree 37-year-old military doctor usually takes care of Zhuang Yuanying the most.
So, is he just bored when he did something like this? Or is there another profound meaning?
And just as Sean was thinking, he suddenly felt a strange and heavy smell lingering at his nose.
The Jedi apprentice keenly caught the smell, feeling her hair shivered. Then he realized that it was not a strange thing in the "smell", but a kind of intuition about danger.
In the direction of intuition, the Jedi apprentice turned his head and saw that in the dark corner in the distance, an orange pair of eyes was staring here coldly.
"Hutt?" Sean murmured to himself in surprise.
After detecting Sean's gaze, Kong Zhang showed his body directly. His huge body staggered out of the mist of fragrance, which quickly attracted everyone's attention.
The Gamos who fell to the ground struggled to stand up and lined up; the noisy Dags calmed down and their arms that supported their bodies were upright; the Kratuin followed Kong Zhang silently.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the supreme on the cornerstone number showed his majesty.
Everyone on the Baiyin also calmed down their relaxed laughter, stood up, and surrounded Li Yu.
Kong Zhang looked down at his human allies and said in a deep voice: "Let your people prepare, after 24 standard hours, they will officially start smuggling."
Li Yu raised his eyebrows: "What a high efficiency, I thought I would have to wait for three or five days."
Kong Zhang said: "The night is long and dreams are too many. I asked my subordinates to speed up the progress and took some radical measures. Then the process of smuggling into [Kun] requires you to feel wronged."
Li Yu said: "No problem, it's natural. Now there is no swagger and comfortable smuggling? It's okay for me to suffer some trouble."
Kong Zhang said: "In addition, you cannot smuggle in the same group. You must separate them. It is difficult for you to pass the entire silver number, including your silver number."
Li Yu said: "The Silver Number can be dismantled to a certain extent. I have asked my experts to transform it."
Kong Zhang asked, "Is it the champion of the Hercules competition? He is indeed a magical girl, no wonder you specially took her under your command."
Li Yu smiled and said, "Don't think of me as utilitarian. My acceptance of people is not based on value."
"But almost all your subordinates are valuable. When I judge a person, I only look at what he has done. Li Yu, if you recruit such subordinates, you have entered an extremely dangerous field early... However, I believe you will not take unnecessary risks. I hope this time you can win what you want in [Kun]."
Li Yu picked up a drink cup and raised it to Kong Zhang: "I'll lend you a good word, and I'll not drink with you."
Kong Zhang stretched out his short and thick hand to the side, and immediately a clever Dag man hugged the bone wine glass and jumped to the hands of the Hutts. A pungent and rich smell of wine immediately came to his face.
Kong Zhang seemed to have no idea, drank the strong and stimulating spirits in one sip and sighed: "I wish you a good journey."
After saying that, the Hutts wriggled their burly bodies and disappeared from the sight of Li Yu and others surrounded by their subordinates.
After Li Yu put down the drink cup, his face darkened slightly.
Chapter completed!
