Chapter 2975 King's Landing Hub
The towering tower of the Shadow Hub seemed to stab the mottled metal sphere as if it was part of it, but now it became a poisonous tumor. The towers and observation domes that once represented science became the mansions of nobles favored by the consuls, or fortresses of defensive forces. The exiles of Comoros imitated the Goblins to build their own iconic spires, and the intricate network of bridges across the top of the entire tower, making it look like a skeleton claw wrapped in a spider web, reaching into the dark sky.
These towers are also the most stable defense of the God Tower, equipped with a large number of weapons that can hit the spaceships in orbit. The largest central tower is also the place where the Dead Garden is located. The garden is filled with the most dangerous and aggressive plants selected from dozens of the worlds, carefully cured into a beautiful and deadly botanical garden. From the platform above the garden, guests of the conspiracy group watched the terrifying plants devour, poisoning or dissolving the horrifying slaves released in this elegant hell.
But almost no one has seen the consul himself here. His palace is located in the middle of the tower of the gods. Only the lucky ones will be invited into the palace, and only the lucky ones will have the opportunity to leave again.
The port area of the Shadow Hub is also divided into two parts. One is the main port area near the Shadow Ridge Pit, which is also the main commercial port area. Most slaves will flow to the city or from the city to other places, and the other is the VIP port area near the God Tower. Only distinguished guests who are allowed by the consul can park here.
Generally speaking, the representatives of various conspiracy groups are welcomed here, either the huntresses of the Witch Spirit Sect, the mercenaries of the Nightmare Temple, or the blood actors with other intentions.
However, since the consul came down not long ago to temporarily block the port area and prohibit all ships from entering and leaving, the place seemed a bit deserted at this time.
But soon, this kind of desolation was broken by a warship. It stabbed out from the flash of the net like a dagger, floating leisurely towards the port area.
“This is the shadow hub…”
In the secret and independent bridge compartment of the Dark Eldar Cruiser, a tall figure whose whole body and face was covered by a black cloak was staring at the miraculous creature outside the bubble cover. Behind him were hundreds of shorter individuals who were also wearing black cloaks and still motionless...
The Galan star body is like a metal ball thrown in a dark corner. Even if you look at it from a distance, you can see the scars on it, especially the huge impact craters, which make people worry about its integrity, and the shadow hub is actually only a part of its surface.
"Caronte..."
Hearing the other party called his name, Charonte, bent over, jogged carefully from the side, holding his hands in front of his chest, as humble as a tavern servant.
"What will do you do, your great Highness?"
"Do you want to be the consul here?"
"ah?"
Charonte didn't react at once, but soon he lowered his head in panic.
"I only want to be your most loyal servant, your Highness, and devote your life to the revival of the great Aida Empire!"
"Then do you want to do it or not?"
"I... humble, no... don't want to."
Soshiyang chuckled.
"But that consul Abrahaq seems to want to get involved in this place. What words did he ask you to bring to me? I hope the royal court will give him the opportunity to make achievements, recognize his ability, and do his part to guide Comoros in the future? Is this threatening the orphan?"
Charonte was already in a cold sweat at this time. He didn't expect that his consul was so greedy. After learning that the royal court had borrowed a boat, he immediately judged that the royal court would take action against the shadow hub, so he asked him to tell the royal court in the same tactful way as possible that Cadiz Abrahaq hoped to become the controller of the shadow hub - to rule here instead of the royal court.
Of course, Charonte could guess the consul's idea, and it was not cost-effective to completely turn to the royal court and Wittke's side. The best way was to ride on both sides and eat at the same time. However, the royal court was weak before, so he was more inclined to the royal court. But seeing that the royal court had gradually grown, he had already begun to consider whether he wanted to give Victor a blow.
This is a game of throne that almost all Comoros nobles will play, but Charonte felt that the consul was playing with fire. After all, the man who sat in the spire of the conspiracy group had never been to the royal court. He had come several times and had personally witnessed the Eternal Court, especially the power of the Phoenix King. No matter what others think, Charonte's eyes, he felt that the one who lost in the end must be Victor!
But how dare he tell the consul? If he really says this, he will lose his life. The consul will think that he has become an undercover agent of the royal court.
But the ones who fight on both sides will always be the middlemen like him. Charonte could only answer with a bitter face:
"Your Highness, the consul may just be worried about you... not for a moment... not a suitable candidate."
"What if I had the right person? Will he tell Victor?"
"Of course not, of course..."
"Charont, do you want to be the consul of your conspiracy group?"
As soon as Soshiyan said this, Charonte quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, and his entire waist was almost bent to ninety degrees, and he whispered:
"Your Highness, I am humble... I dare not have such delusions... nor do I have this ability... I only want to turn from evil to good, embark on the right path, and trace your Majesty and your glory."
Although Charonte's ability is not too strong, he has a characteristic, which is his cleverness and very good eyesight. During the period he was in the royal court, he realized that if the Eternal Royal Court really seized Comoros, then no one of the old nobles and consuls who were daydreaming was good. If Victor is there, they still have a "unified front" value. If Victor is gone...
The safest way to do this storm is not to stand too high, so although Charonte is a person who is determined to climb up, he is very clear when he climbs. The higher he climbs at this time, the worse he will fall. When the storm passes, with his achievements, he will have opportunities and positions in the new empire in the future.
Therefore, his strategy is to show loyalty and keep showing loyalty, even if it makes him appear stupid and submissive.
At least stupid people rarely become priority targets or even temporarily ignored.
"You did not answer my question, would Abrahaq betray the royal court?"
But Soshyan is not a fool, his cold voice made Charonte sweat even more.
