"Your Excellency Uzumi, we have seen your ideas and your consciousness. Thank you very much for clarifying our doubts." Malu stood up and bowed to Uzmi with Bakirulu and Mu.
These words are indeed thought-provoking for them. Their hearts are still shrouded in the fog of confusion and they cannot see the way forward clearly, but Uzmi’s philosophy is also a beacon for them.
Standing at the fork in the road, they illuminated one of the directions.
…
After the talks were over, the three returned to the Archangel. Following the Archangel to Orb were several battleships and a small number of soldiers. Their military ranks were not as high as Malu's, so Maliu was asked to negotiate as a representative. Now Malu
Lyu and the others are back, and they are eager to know the results.
"Captain Lamias, what's going on? What did Orb say?"
"Will they drive us away?"
"Did you impose excessive conditions? Do you want to force us to join Orb?"
"nothing."
"nothing?"
"Yes, Your Excellency Uzmi has no intention of driving us away, let alone forcing us to join Orb."
Immediately, Malu relayed the conversation between Uzumi and them word for word to the others. After listening, some people could not believe it, because Orb was too good to them, except that they could not run around now.
, there are no restrictions, you are free to join or leave; some people are ashamed because they just judged the heart of a gentleman with a villain's heart.
But what followed were all tangled and complicated expressions.
To be honest, when they came to Orb, they felt an unprecedented peace. There was no war, no orders, no intrigues between officials, and no betrayal by high-level officials.
But... they are all wearing Earth Army uniforms, and some of them have been wearing them for a long time. Even if they are abandoned, it will be difficult to take them off all at once.
"Everyone, we all have time to think about whether to stay or not, but I think you also know that the Atlantic Federation has announced to the outside world that we fought to the last soldier and the entire army was annihilated, which means that in their eyes we are already
Someone is dead, I believe you all understand what this means, so...please consider it carefully." Ma Liu reminded them that Ma Liu had already made a decision in her heart, but this was only her personal decision, and all he could do was remind them.
, and there are expectations.
"Captain Lamias, do you choose to stay in Orb?" one of the captains asked.
"...Yes, but I will not join the Orb army immediately. I want to stay in Orb, use my own eyes to find my future, and witness Orb's ideals."
"……I see."
Everyone understood what Malu did and respected her and everyone on board the Archangel. Not the Archangel, they had already been reduced to coke in Alaska or buried in the sea.
"Everyone, I look forward to your final decision."
After saluting each other and going their separate ways, Malu, Mu and Bucky Lulu returned to the captain's room of the Archangel.
"Have you really decided?" Bucky Lulu asked Malu.
"Yes, after all...he is here too, isn't he?" A gentle smile appeared on Ma Liu's tired face. When she came to Orb and got close to Yang Hui, she felt a lot more relaxed.
"...I will also stay and join the Orb Army." Baji Lulu directly stated his final decision.
"Eh?" Ma Liu and Mu were surprised. In their eyes, Baji Lulu was the one least likely to stay. She was born into a military family. Although her iron-blooded demeanor had been changed a lot by Yang Hui, it had not disappeared.
Moreover, if Baji Lulu wants to join the Orb Army, it means that she will be an enemy of her own family.
"I have disobeyed the military's order. According to military law, I will be imprisoned for life or shot. I don't want to die." Baki Lulu said with a blushing face.
"Uh, haha." Ma Liu and Mu laughed. They could tell that this was an excuse. In fact, Bucky Lulu just wanted to stay with Yang Hui just like Ma Liu, or even more.
"Major Flaka, where are you?" Malu asked Mu again.
"Me?" Mu pointed at himself and laughed to himself, "I don't want to die either, so of course I have to stay."
Hearing this, Malu and Baji Lulu understood that Mu, like Baji Lulu, had disobeyed the order and could not return to the Atlantic Federation alive.
"So, all three of us are staying?" Malu joked.
"Yes."
"I will continue to take care of you from now on, Captain, Vice-Captain."
"Well, please take care of me, Natal, Major Flaca."
"That's too much. She is just the name, and I am the surname plus military rank, which is still an invalid military rank."
"Hahaha." Seeing Mu making trouble, Ma Liu and Baji Lulu covered their mouths and chuckled.
"By the way, what are you going to do about the others?" Mu Caring asked. He had confidence in his companions on the Archangel, but he still had to let them make their own decisions.
"Let everyone take a good rest in a few days, and then ask them what they think. They are free to leave or stay."
"Everyone on the Archangel is an excellent fighter. We cannot let them go... Even though I really want to say this, I am not qualified to say so now."
"Haha, it's true, we are all defectors now, hahaha..."
…
It is not only the Earth Army accepted by Orb who have different thoughts, but also several nobles of Orb.
They were all the ones who chose to hand over Yang Hui without hesitation after receiving the conditions of the Atlantic Federation. Originally, they thought that the weak Uzmi would accept it for the sake of Orb, but who knew that this time Uzmi was uncharacteristically rejected and sternly refused.
Not only Uzmi, but also Yang Hongyu and other three patriarchs of the five major families, and even the old Sahak, who had always been at odds with Uzmi, opposed the handing over of Yang Hui.
This frightened them because they had offended five of Orb's top nobles in an instant.
Of course, if this is the case, they are just worried that they will be in trouble, and they will be able to pass the test by handing over some family interests. But now they are already planning to pack up their belongings and run away, because this move has offended Yang Hui.
Uzumi and others are not scary, they just have more power than them. In terms of family power, they are not ranked as high as the five major families, but they are not far behind. Moreover, Uzumi and others are rule-abiding people and will abide by the rules of the aristocratic circle.
Unspoken rules.
But Yang Hui wouldn't. The choices he and others made were enough for Yang Hui to regard them as enemies, and Yang Hui was like a mad dog to his enemies and would definitely bite them to death.
No, that very night, the heads of the Sailan family, the Matt family, the Takasaki family, and the Hilton family who chose to hand over Yang Hui to the Atlantic Federation were "invited" to Yang Hui's personal residence for tea.
A total of 8 people, led by the Sailan family, were sitting on their own sofas, with trembling legs. The tempting black tea and exquisite desserts were placed aside without daring to move or say a word, because
Behind them, there were two strong men in black suits and sunglasses standing behind them, one on the left and one on the right, with their hands behind their backs.
"Tap tap tap..."
The silence was broken by the approaching footsteps, the door to the room opened, and the young figure who frightened them slowly walked in.
"Yang...Yang Hui...we..."
The head of the Gaoqi family couldn't bear the pressure anymore. He was sweating profusely and was about to stand up to plead with Yang Hui, but as soon as he stood up, he was pushed back to the sofa by the black suit behind him.
Yang Hui nodded towards the head of the Gaoqi family with a smile on his face, looked around at everyone, sat down in his seat, and slowly tasted the black tea and desserts.
"Well, it tastes pretty good. I thought your uncles were not satisfied with the black tea and desserts."
"Yang Hui, I...we..."
"But it's no wonder..." Someone else spoke with a trembling voice, but Yang Hui ignored him and continued on his own, "...all the uncles are the heads of the family. Although the family is not among the top five, it is almost the same.
I have been living in fine clothes and fine food, so it is normal that I am not used to the simple food and food here. Although the Yang family is one of the five major families, for the development of Orb, all the family funds have been emptied. Please forgive me, uncles."
"Understand...understand..."
"The Yang family understands justice well, and we cannot be stingy. I will hand over 40%, no, 50%, of the family property to the Orb state." "I will hand it over too! I will hand over 60%!"
"I also……"
…
Seeing everyone expressing their opinions, Yang Hui nodded with a smile: "Thank you uncles for your understanding. Aub is in crisis now, and it requires a lot of manpower, material and financial resources. With the support of uncles, I believe we will be able to successfully survive this crisis."
It’s a difficult time.”
"Yes Yes Yes."
"It's all...all for Orb..."
"Since...it should be like this..."
"Then let's leave first. We still have..."
Everyone thought that Yang Hui would let them go if he accepted their compensation. One or two of them hurriedly stood up to leave, but were pushed back by black suits.
"Don't worry, everyone, my nephew has one more thing that he needs your help with."
"Please...please say..."
"For Orb, we can all agree..."
"Since it's Xiaohui who speaks, I won't refuse."
…
Having said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid that Yang Hui would not make conditions. As long as Yang Hui made conditions, it would mean that there was room for negotiation and they would not be directly eliminated.
But when Yang Hui said his request, they couldn't sit still.
"You also know that Orb has recently added two new territories, one is a giant floating platform, and the other is Papua New Guinea. These places need people to manage them. All the brothers, brothers, sisters and so on in your family are all
Elite talents, with such a great opportunity, why not show your talents and contribute to Orb?"
"Yang Hui! You..."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Don't go too far!"
…
Property is all external possessions and can be earned back as long as they are alive, and their wealth is amazing. Even if only 10% is left to them, they can live a wealthy life.
But... what Yang Hui wants is their descendants!
This is impossible to agree to, this is digging their roots!
Although they are all nobles, Orb's law also allows polygamy. Each of their families has at least three or four wives. But the strange thing is that each of their families is a single generation. Maybe some families have two or three, but
Not much.
As for the aristocratic custom, only the best among them are selected to be cultivated, while the others are basically raised free-range and have little family ties with the family.
And the person Yang Hui wants must be their chosen heir, not an insignificant person. Once Yang Hui takes the heir away, their family will have no future!
It's not that they can't be regenerated, or that they can't be cultivated by another person, but Yang Hui's attitude is to dig up your roots, one by one, as long as you dare to cultivate new heirs, I dare to take them away!
"Really?" Yang Hui was not angry, he just felt that the group of people in front of him were stupid and did not realize the current situation at all.
"Click~"
The sound of pulling the gun bolt sounded all at once, and everyone's blushing faces turned pale and colorless in an instant. When they turned their heads, they saw the dark muzzle of the gun close at hand.
"Yang Hui...you...what are you going to do!?"
"We are... but the heads of the noble family!"
"You...you don't dare to kill us!"
"Yes! Uzumi...Uzumi will never allow your atrocities!"
…
"Oh? Don't I dare?" Yang Hui smiled, put down the tea cup and stood up. He came to the head of the Sailan family, Unat Sailan, took the gun in the black suit and held it against his
forehead.
"Guess, do I dare?"
Yang Hui still had a gentle smile on his face, but in their eyes it was colder than Jiuyou Hanbing.
"Yang...Yang Hui...I..."
"Bang~!"
"Ah~!!!!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Of course it was not Yang Hui who fired the gun, he just uttered a sound in his mouth, which frightened Uunat Sailan and squatted on the ground with his head in his hands. The other family heads were also weak and limp, and some even had wet crotches and radiated moisture.
With a pungent odor.
"Uncles, don't be afraid. Of course I don't dare to kill you. I am a model of obeying the law." Yang Hui threw the pistol back to the black suit, looked around disdainfully, and returned to his seat to sit down.
"Yang...Yang Hui..."
"But I just don't know, uncles, if according to Orb's law, what kind of crime can these things be punished with?" As he said, Yang Hui gestured to the men in black suits, and they each took out a terminal from their pockets and handed it to them.
The person in front.
Everyone took the terminal with trembling hands. When they opened it, they saw that their already pale faces were even paler. There was no trace of blood, and their eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes.
"Yang Hui! You can't do this!"
"It's over...it's all over..."
"I still have money! I can still give you money! I will give you all my property!"
…
Some people burst into anger in despair, some resigned in despair, and some humbly begged for mercy. There are many ugly postures.
"I only have one condition. If you agree, these secrets will remain secrets. If you don't agree, the people from the Justice Bureau will be next door."
"Promise! I promise!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone agreed. They didn't dare not agree. Each terminal recorded evidence that they used their power to make profits for themselves, knowingly breaking the law and then covering up their crimes. One by one, there was no omission.
, if these are exposed, they will stay in prison for the rest of their lives.
Descendants are important, but their own lives are even more important! So they chose themselves without hesitation, abandoning the family's descendants and future.
"Very good, my nephew has accepted the kindness of all the uncles. Someone will go to your house tomorrow to invite the young ladies to take up their posts. I believe you won't play the trick of changing the civet cat for the prince, right?"
"No, it won't."
"Well, I believe you."
The final result had been determined, and Yang Hui got up and left. Someone would take them home later.
"Yang Hui!" The frustrated Unat Sailan glared at Yang Hui with bloodshot eyes, "Aren't you afraid of causing public outrage by doing this!?"
"Haha." Yang Hui, who was about to walk out of the room, stopped in front of the door, turned his head, and smiled coldly, "Aobu doesn't need people who will cause public outrage? Don't make people laugh."
