After being fed to top-tier orcs, I became the darling of the entire intergalactic world.

Chapter 318: I've killed too many people to remember.
To welcome back their long-absent leader, Drowell, Nick went to great lengths to put on a show and provide ample emotional support.

Unlike the previous banquet for Liang He and Elius, this banquet was held in an auditorium.

Wearing an exquisite mask, Drovell, like an ancient king of the planet Earth, sat on a high platform, with various fine dishes and drinks in front of him, while a performer gave a special show in the center of the hall.

Below him were four army commanders and a black wizard on his left and right sides, respectively, while Liang He and Elius were placed together at the head of the right side, which shows how much Drovell valued them.

"Chief Ellie, Ms. Liang He, it's a pleasure to meet you. Please forgive me if I have failed to provide proper hospitality."

When they were face to face, Droville should have revealed his true voice, but surprisingly, the bow tie he wore seemed to have the function of a voice changer.

This reminded Liang He of a certain anime on Earth.

"Chief Dero, you're too kind. Liang He and I are having a great time here."

Elius took the initiative to handle the social aspects and began a back-and-forth 'confrontation' with Drogher.

Liang He took the opportunity to observe the other two army commanders and the surrounding layout.

"What is Ms. Liang He looking at?"

Seril, who was assigned to sit below Liang He, noticed that she seemed a little bored and took the initiative to strike up a conversation with her.

The reason she sat next to Liang He was intentional; Liang He would be less wary of women.

"I'm just curious, who is who?"

Liang He had previously learned about the rebels' high command from Aysa. Besides the leader, Drowell, the Black Wizard was in charge of the research department, while the other four commanders each had an elite legion of a thousand men, as well as several ordinary legions.

The legion led by Commander Mi Tai, who was previously crushed by Liang He, was not considered elite, but its overall strength was still among the best.

“You know both Nick and me, so it’s just Sanjis and Nigrum left.”

Nigrum symbolizes death and darkness, and is specifically responsible for assassinating high-ranking Confederate officials, while also bearing the important responsibility of protecting the leader.

Sangis, on the other hand, represents a fanaticism for bloodshed. He is usually behind the wars caused by rebels, and he often personally takes to the battlefield.

“The Ace you killed before was one of his subordinates.”

Nick remained at headquarters, acting as the leader and overseeing all matters concerning the rebels. He also worked with the dark wizard to check and balance him, assisting him in his research on ferocious beasts.

As for Cyril, she was in charge of intelligence work, including the branches stationed on various planets, undercover agents, and so on.

“One of my new deputy ministers was promoted ahead of schedule because he caught you.”

At the time, Cyril was quite unhappy with the Nixel people's behavior, but later she learned a lot about Liang He from him, which made Cyril very interested in Liang He.

"I've killed too many people to remember them all."

Liang He's arrogant words made Cyril raise an eyebrow slightly.

This was completely different from the woman he had seen just hours earlier. No wonder Nick said she was arrogant, daring to provoke the rebels while standing on their territory, right in front of them.

"If you are willing to join us, you may become the fifth army commander in the future."

Given the importance that Leader Droville attaches to Liang He, coupled with her astonishing combat prowess, she is certainly qualified for the position of army commander.

However, since she hadn't joined willingly, there would still be necessary precautions and tests. Drovell wouldn't give her real power until she passed the test.

"I'm just an ordinary zookeeper."

Liang He, who considers herself ordinary and unremarkable, is actually the most extraordinary and unusual one.

"Excessive modesty is arrogance, don't you think?"

Cyril chuckled, raised her glass to Liang He, and drank it down without waiting for a response.

"Tonight, the leader must finalize the cooperation with the space pirates, and you, too, need to give a definite answer." The deep-thinking Drovell would not allow them to delay any longer; if the Federation were to discover the headquarters' location, it would be a huge problem.

Leaving aside Elius, who is also at odds with the Federation, if Liang He refuses to join, she will surely become a major threat to the rebels in the future.

"If I don't agree, how are you going to kill me?"

Despite the impending danger, Liang He remained as calm as ever.

She looked at the guards inside the auditorium; it wouldn't be difficult to resolve the situation.

"Your biggest mistake was revealing your abilities prematurely."

While Drowell valued it, he was also very wary of it.

This time, they brought back two thousand elite troops, each equipped with the most advanced firearms. No matter how powerful Liang He is, can he be stronger than weapons or faster than bullets?

"So, two thousand elite troops, just to deal with me alone?"

Liang He suddenly laughed, a very happy laugh.

Selyl frowned, wondering how Liang He could laugh.

"Ms. Liang He, what are you laughing at? Why don't you tell us and make us laugh too?"

Nick, sitting opposite her, was also keeping a close eye on Liang He's movements.

He was curious about what Cyril and Liang He had talked about that made her so happy.

"Oh? I'm curious too, why is Ms. Liang He so happy?"

Nick's question interrupted the pleasantries between Droville and Elius, but also drew everyone's attention to Liang He.

It's understandable that she was one of the targets of this banquet.

“Ceril told me that if I did not agree to join the rebels, two thousand elite troops and tens of thousands of soldiers would put me to death.”

Upon hearing Liang He's words, Elius subconsciously frowned. He turned slightly to the side, looking at Liang He with concern in his eyes. His hand, which was under the table, was covered by a warm touch.

Liang He was trying to reassure him, telling him not to worry or be anxious.

"Ha! Celia, how dare you frighten our distinguished guests?"

Exposed, Droville laughed heartily, but his gaze towards Liang He through the mask held a hint of fierceness.

He was also curious to know what choice Liang He would make given the disparity in strength.

"What the leader says is true. I will personally apologize to Ms. Liang He later."

The reason I said "later" is simply to see what Liang He will choose.

If it were an ally, it would be reasonable for her to apologize, but if it were an enemy—

"However, please forgive me, leader, but I really wish that Ms. Liang He could become one of us. After all... I am indeed a bit lonely on my own."

Cyril deliberately glanced around, implying that everyone else present was male except for herself.

"Hmm, does Celia look down on us men?"

They probably realized that the leader and Seria were putting on an act and wanted to use this opportunity to get Liang He to make a statement.

The other two commanders were sullen and taciturn, and only good at fighting. In the end, Nick had to step in to keep the show going.

"So, what does Ms. Liang He mean?"
