Chapter 219 Female Demon Councilor
Chapter 219 Female Demon Councilor
Putting aside the Federation's attitude towards Li Ang, after witnessing the battle not long ago, the major powers that were watching all added this young man to their databases.
Among them, the Empire and Io Logistics are the most concerned about him.
The former is because Li Ang's current identity is the governor of the Federation planet, and the relationship between the Empire and the Federation is not good.
Minor frictions are commonplace, and war can even break out between the two sides when certain issues are involved.
At this moment, in the cold space.
A starship resembling a palace stood quietly in front of a colossal golden statue, its size comparable to a planet, which was under construction.
Judging from the faint facial details revealed by the statue, it should depict a young man.
Inside the starship, the Imperial high-level professional who had watched the battle with Heinz earlier knelt on one knee, bowing respectfully to the middle-aged man in front of him with his back to him, reporting something: "My lord, are we just going to let that little dragon cub return to the Federation like this?"
The middle-aged man had a meticulously groomed beard, and he was currently carefully combing his hair with a small comb made of an unknown material.
When questioned by his subordinates, the marquis did not respond, but simply stared silently at the golden statue outside the starship with his iron-gray eyes.
After a while, he stopped what he was doing and looked away, saying in an emotionless voice, "Let him go. He's just a fourth-level dragon cub."
"This"
Upon hearing this, the subordinate instinctively raised his head, wanting to explain the danger of the little dragon cub mentioned in the intelligence report.
But as soon as he saw the back of the person in front of him, his neck was pressed down hard by an inexplicable force.
Bang——
As the crisp sound of bones breaking rang out, the subordinate's forehead instantly became covered in cold sweat, and he quickly lowered his head.
Such a minor injury meant nothing to him, but if he were to truly offend the Marquis, then...
Just as he was becoming increasingly uneasy, the Marquis spoke up: "This is a one-time exception, and there will be no next time."
Then, he casually explained, "The Federation and the Empire have an agreement that the upper three energy levels are not allowed to attack those below them under normal circumstances."
Upon hearing this, the subordinate was taken aback at first, but then he understood the key point.
Actually, it's quite normal for such unwritten agreements to exist. After all, although the Federation and the Empire don't get along very well, they haven't reached the point of life and death.
But when is it considered an abnormal situation?
Just as he was thinking this, the Marquis suddenly let out a sneer: "And that old woman Afra is still watching me. Does she really think that little dragon cub is so easy to kill?"
"Am I right?"
As he spoke, he turned his head to look in a certain direction.
Just as his subordinates were beginning to have doubts, a clear voice suddenly rang out in the void.
[You do have some self-awareness, you're just a nobody.]
Upon hearing this voice, the subordinate was startled, realizing who his master was talking to.
Federal Obsidian Starfield Councilor, [Deep Freeze Loop] Afra Haywood.
'This is the seventh level.'
It's important to know that even using a stargate to jump between the Obsidian Starfield and his current starfield would take a considerable amount of time.
But to these monsters of the upper three energy levels, they were as close as if they were within arm's reach.
The Marquis ignored Afra's taunts and simply flicked his finger to block her view.
Having dealt with her for so many years, he was extremely familiar with the old woman Afra's personality. He was afraid that even if His Majesty were to confront her directly, she would be nothing more than a nobody.
'How vulgar.'
Thinking of this, the Marquis curled his lip and then casually ordered, "Upload the intelligence. That little dragon cub will run into the imperial elite sooner or later."
"They will handle it when the time comes."
At present, the world development projects of the Federation and the Empire are in full swing, and basically the geniuses of both sides will compete for supremacy in those worlds.
Based on the strength of that little dragon cub mentioned in the intelligence, it will almost certainly be sent by the Federation to develop the world, and the Empire will naturally handle it when that time comes.
Unfortunately, what the Marquis didn't know was that Li Ang had no intention of getting involved in the Federation's world development.
After all, if his guess is correct, then he can be considered a top partner in this world, and he can start his own business.
Unlike an empire.
At the headquarters of IEO Logistics, on a super-large planet resembling a dragon's head, a heated exchange is taking place at the Tiamat branch.
"It's such a waste that those guys in the logistics department could find such a good prospect."
"I want to fight him. Chew, chew, chew."
"Why hasn't he revealed his dragon form? Could he be a half-dragon?"
"Perhaps it's due to the unique nature of his dragon species? Anyway, our branch already has a huge collection of strangely shaped dragons, so one more dragon without a body won't make much difference."
"Yay! We can fight the Federation again!"
"You lot, don't give His Majesty Aio a headache!"
The scene was chaotic, like a vegetable market, with most of the dragons talking to themselves, completely ignoring what their companions were saying.
Looking at the chaotic scene before him, a giant dragon with scales shimmering with five-colored light rubbed its temples in exasperation.
'Fine, let these guys do whatever they want, I'm not going to care anymore.'
'Immortal Evolution has placed another security order. I'd better check first to see if those lunatics are trying to use the order as an excuse to research mutants again.'
Thinking of this, it flapped its wings and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
……
Li Ang was unaware that he was being targeted by many forces, or rather, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Unless he continues to cower like a tortoise, with his strength, this day will come sooner or later.
With the surge in energy, the speed of the [Earth Devourer] was further enhanced, and Li Ang quickly returned to Morabis.
Looking at the verdant planet before him, he couldn't help but let out a soft sigh: "Finally back."
It must be said that he gained a great deal from this trip, not only acquiring a Chakra Fruit but also creating another pseudo-Servant with considerable strength.
If we also add the rudimentary process of creating Noble Phantasms...
Li Ang felt that being targeted by a powerful force was not entirely unacceptable.
At this moment, the trio who had received the news were waiting in the starport. There had been a lot of things piling up on Morabis during this time, and they still needed to make a decision from the planet's governor, Leon.
As Danica watched the gray-brown starship slowly docking in the starport not far away, a thought involuntarily flashed through her mind.
'Could he already be at level five?'
Based on past experience, this is actually a high-probability event.
Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly noticed that a young girl had appeared beside her.
"?"
Before Danica could speak, Luke instinctively asked, "Little girl, how did you get in here?"
As he spoke, he muttered with some doubt, "Strange, I remember that Starport should have been closed today."
Upon hearing this, the little girl glanced at Luke and then casually said, "Shut up, you trash." A tic-tac-toe mark instantly appeared on Luke's forehead.
This kid's attitude is infuriating!
Before he could say anything, Li Ang had already appeared in front of the trio.
Looking at the young girl who was sizing him up, he frowned slightly: "Are you Lady Afra?"
Faced with the young girl, Li Ang had only one thought in his mind at that moment.
Strong.
The strength was so profound that even his Reincarnation Eyes couldn't discern the opponent's true nature.
However, as the planet's governor, Li Ang had already recognized the other party's identity, which is why he abandoned the [Earth Devourer] and appeared here.
At this moment, the young girl withdrew her scrutinizing gaze and said in a somewhat strange tone, "Your composition is quite complicated."
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the space elevator: "Lead the way, I need to talk to you."
Debate, debate, debate. A councilor?!
Why would someone like that come looking for Li Ang?!
Luke stiffly turned his neck to look at the petite figure not far away.
As the son of the planet's governor, he certainly knew what that title represented.
That's a seventh-level energy level! And he's my dad's boss!
goo-dong-
The young master swallowed hard, about to say something, when he realized that Li Ang had already followed.
Unlike the utterly shocked trio, Li Ang had already roughly guessed the purpose of the important figure behind him.
It should be something related to world development, just like Otavio said.
Should I refuse?
If the Traveler talent doesn't undergo any changes, then Li Ang feels that agreeing to it shouldn't be a problem.
But right now.
While they were pondering, the two had already arrived at the Alchemy Kingdom.
After gesturing to the android maid beside him to prepare tea and snacks, Leon spoke first and asked, "What does Lady Afra need me to do?"
Seeing that Li Ang was so direct, Afra didn't bother to keep her in suspense. She casually froze the tea in front of her into ice crystals and then ate it like a shaved ice: "No wonder Gavin thought so highly of you. You're a bit stronger than the other small fry."
"."
Where did this little female devil come from?
Since this was the first time Li Ang had dealt with this congressman, he wasn't sure if this was his usual attitude.
If so.
It's fortunate she's a seventh-level professional; otherwise, she would probably have been killed long ago.
Unaware of what Li Ang was thinking, Afra asked, "How much do you know about world development?"
"Know some basic information."
Li Ang answered truthfully.
“Very well, it seems I don’t need to waste my breath explaining again.” Afra put down her empty teacup, picked up a napkin and gently wiped her mouth. “The Federation needs you to participate in this mission. If you agree, take my starship to the Central Star Region to report now.”
Upon hearing this, Li Ang raised an eyebrow and tentatively asked, "Judging from Lady Afra's words, may I refuse?"
"Of course, the Federation is short-staffed, but it's not to the point where it can't do without you."
Afra supported herself on the chair with both hands, her small feet dangling slightly in mid-air because they couldn't reach the ground.
She looked at the complex composition of the human dragon in front of her and decided that what it was didn't matter.
After Li Ang asked that question, Afra knew that she would have to return empty-handed today.
However, considering the other party's potential, she was still prepared to say something more: "The Federation will not be stingy with rewards for a talentless nobody like you."
"Moreover, you will also gain a lot of benefits during the development of the world, and the Federation will not pursue these benefits."
At this point, Afra shook her head slightly: "With those resources, you should be able to reach my level in a few hundred years. Wouldn't it be great to come back as a councilor or military leader then?"
If any of Afra's subordinates were present at this moment, they would probably be astonished by what they saw.
Is this really the attitude that this congressman would exhibit?
Seeing that Li Ang did not reply, Afra frowned slightly. Then, without her making any move, an ice crystal that looked like a screen appeared in Li Ang's sight.
In the image displayed by the ice crystal, a handsome man with pale skin is seen bowing his head and dealing with something.
"This is that scumbag vampire from the Secret Blood Corporation. If you're willing to go to the Central Star Region, I can take care of him for you right now. After that, the policies of the Obsidian Star Region will also give the green light to the Plant Alliance."
"This is my personal investment in you."
Upon hearing Afra's words, Li Ang was taken aback at first, then looked at the councilor with some surprise.
so generous?
And if he remembers correctly, that Venerable One was at the sixth level, right?
Are seventh-level professionals really this arrogant?
Unfortunately, even though the offer was very tempting, Li Ang was still prepared to refuse.
He felt more comfortable being his own boss than working for the federal government.
Of course, Li Ang could also have a double life, developing the world he controlled while working for the Federation.
The problem is that he is currently in a remote area like the Obsidian Starfield, which is fine. But what if someone discovers his secret when he gets to the Central Starfield?
Without a doubt, the Federation would not refuse another channel for world development.
As for a win-win situation...
It's better to believe that Li Ang is Qin Shi Huang than to believe in the Federation; at least given his current strength, he wouldn't believe it.
Seemingly sensing something from Li Ang's expression, Afra waved her hand somewhat unhappily: "Tsk, it seems you have your own ideas. What a waste of my breath."
As she finished speaking, the ice crystals in the arena shattered inch by inch, turning into a pile of fragments that fell to the ground.
"Those conditions remain in effect. If you change your mind, you can contact me directly."
With that, Afra jumped off the chair, and after leaving behind her last words, she vanished in the form of shimmering ice shards.
"Don't worry about me targeting you. I don't have time to pay attention to small fry like you."
Upon hearing this, Li Ang fell silent for a moment.
To be fair, despite the fact that this Senator Afra kept calling people "small fish," her first impression on Leon wasn't bad.
Of course, this could be a deliberate act by the other party, and Li Ang couldn't be sure what the real situation was.
The only thing he was certain of was that world development could indeed bring extremely terrifying benefits, otherwise the Federation wouldn't be so generous.
Looking at the countdown timer for the [Traveler] talent on the panel, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
'I still need to improve my strength as soon as possible, otherwise if the Federation or the Empire finds out, I'm afraid I won't have a good ending.'
With this in mind, Li Ang made his decision, stood up, and disappeared from the spot.
When he reappeared, there was an incredibly sophisticated device in front of him.
【Spirit Particle Calculator Trismegistes (Li Ang Special Edition)】.
Hopefully, the intervention will go smoothly.
With this in mind, Li Ang began operating the device.
