Chapter 755 The source of fire
It is very likely that the emperor's physical condition is rapidly deteriorating, and this sudden situation caught both the fourth prince and the eighth prince by surprise.
They all understand that if the emperor dies suddenly at this time, then the chance of the second prince ascending to the throne is as high as [-]%!
I can't wait!
The two princes immediately signed an alliance under the city, agreeing that the two sides would watch over and help each other, and work together to deal with the biggest threat, the second prince.
"Both of us should not hide our secrets, and as soon as possible, secretly assemble a fleet to the vicinity of the Fragmentary Star Field, waiting for an opportunity.
Since you have a news channel in the Broken Star Domain, it is up to you to closely follow the latest developments of the second brother. Once the other party makes a move, we can come to a mantis to catch the cicada! " said the fourth prince.
"it is good!"
The two discussed some other details of the cooperation, focusing on curbing the expansion of the second prince's power and jointly suppressing the opponent's henchmen.
They have exchanged interests that benefit both sides, and shared the resources and power in their hands to a certain extent, so that the new allies can have a certainty about their own strength.
As for whether the two of them have concealed their secrets... Is there a need to ask?
After the second prince is eliminated, the finals still have to be held. No one would naively think that the opponent will reveal all their cards.
My dear brother, the throne should be contested!
After the eighth prince left, the fourth prince sat on the spot, deliberating over the pros and cons of joining forces with the eighth prince.
"Well... this is the best solution at present. The second brother has too much advantage, so we can only unite all the forces that can be united. Well... the ninth brother can also fight for it.
He was already at odds with the second brother, even if he has no strength, it would be good to hear some news about the father from him..."
After a long time, he hesitated for a moment, then took out the communicator.
After being transferred through several relay stations, and after a series of complex encryptions, the signal is finally connected to a distant outside domain.
"Your Highness the Fourth Prince, rare customer! But I remember that it is not our trading time, what's wrong? Could it be that something went wrong with the last batch of goods?"
There is no communication image, and there is only a waveform diagram of the sound wave on the screen. It fluctuates with the other party's tone, but the voice is neutral, and no male or female can be identified.
"My lord duke, it's not about the goods. I'm contacting you this time to confirm whether the agreement between us is still valid."
"Of course! Although our mechanical race has learned lies and deceit from you, that is not the source code of my character." The man called the Duke said so.
"Then you intervene in the internal affairs of the empire and support a group of pirates in the Broken Star Field to secretly develop their power. Should you inform me, an ally?" the fourth prince asked, staring at the opposite side.
"Broken Star Realm? Pirates? Sorry, I don't understand what you're talking about." The tone on the other side was quite puzzled.
"Huh? Could it be that the mechanical aristocrat named Captain Ghost is not yours?" The fourth prince was stunned.
"There are 21 mechanical aristocrats under my command, and 7 of them have traveled to the Wulf Empire, but in their location logs, none of them have ever been to the broken star field you mentioned.
So, what you mean is that a mechanical aristocrat appeared in the Fragmentary Star Field and supported a group of pirate forces? "The Mechanical Duke on the opposite side asked.
"That's right! Since it's not under your command, could it be a force supported by the other two mechanical dukes?"
"According to my calculations, the probability of this kind of thing happening is less than 5%. Yong Ye has an arrogant personality and disdains to use this kind of penetrating roundabout play.
Black Light is a staunch racist, and it is even more impossible for him to support foreign forces.
Unless they modify their underlying core source code, resulting in a temperamental change, otherwise this situation is impossible. "
The fourth prince blinked his mouth.
After talking for a long time...or is it that you, Silver Dawn, are the most suspected?
No wonder the fourth prince thinks so.
Among the three Duke forces, only Silver Dawn has a certain amount of business within the empire, and is willing to conduct exchanges and trade with the empire to a certain extent.
As for the other two mechanical dukes, they basically didn't get into it. They either yelled "organic life forms must die" all day long, or they yelled all day long to avenge the former leader Gaia.
Therefore, apart from the Duke of Dawn, the Woolf Empire and the other two Duke forces basically fought fiercely on the border every now and then, and the relationship was extremely bad.
However, like the Woolf Empire, the three mechanical dukes also have many internal conflicts, and everyone is full of scruples, so the three-party battle is still restrained, and there is no all-out war like a thousand years ago.
The reason why the Grand Duke of Horton is the strongest among the five great dukes of the empire is that his territory is located on the border of the empire, and he needs to face the front of the Grand Duke of Heiguang.
Years of fighting has made the fleet under Duke Horton extremely powerful, equivalent to a group of "Guanning cavalry" who guard the frontier all the year round!
With such a force, it's no wonder that even the emperor was afraid of it.
If he really chooses to die, it is hard to guarantee that Duke Horton will not do the crazy move of Wu Sangui to lure the machine clan to "enter the customs".
"Then who do you think he is?
As far as I know, the opponent's 'intelligence' is not low, even a famous general seed under my second brother's command has been manipulated by the opponent, and he has been defeated repeatedly.
Judging from the title level of your machine clan, the opponent must have at least a Viscount, or even a higher level of 'advanced wisdom'. "The fourth prince said tentatively.
"Higher intelligence above the Viscount... Then, there is a 50% chance that someone is disguising our machine race, and another 50% chance..." At this point, the Duke of Liming stopped suddenly and did not continue.
The fourth prince just wanted to ask the other 50% what is the possibility, but listened to the other party continue.
"I will send a clone to personally go to Broken Star Field to find out the situation. If someone is pretending to be a mechanical nobleman, I will let him know that the majesty of the mechanical clan cannot be violated!"
"Well, if you need any assistance, you can contact me, after all...we are allies." The fourth prince didn't go into it, but just smiled.
"Thanks to His Royal Highness Fourth Prince for the information, the next weapon transaction will definitely satisfy His Highness."
The fourth prince smiled even more.
The two sides ended the call, the Fourth Prince lowered his eyes slightly, and tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table.
"50% possibility, this is someone pretending to be a machine race, and another 50% possibility... isn't the other party from the power of the three dukes..."
In other words, this is likely to be a wild mechanical life, perhaps just giving birth to its own consciousness?
And as far as he knows, in the millennium since Gaia was beheaded by the empire, no new mechanical aristocrats have been born within the power of the three dukes...
Because of the legend, the birth of a mechanical noble must be baptized and blessed by Gaia.
Therefore, Gaia is also honored as...the source of fire among the machine race!
Could it be... a new "fire source" appeared? !
