Chapter 109 Chapter 26 If a piece of crystal was...
If the previous piece of crystal could just strengthen the mecha.
This bag of crystals can give the mecha a comprehensive upgrade.
Alan was flattered and looked very happy, but he couldn't hide the shock in his heart.
If he hadn't been worried about the army being full of intruders, he would have shown his jaw-dropping shock on his face.
This is the only way to fully express his excitement at this moment, which made him feel like jumping three feet high.
After a brief chat, Akar and Allen separated. Allen continued to watch the game from the stands, while Akar went to prepare for today's match.
The last game was, as you can imagine, extremely exciting.
Many insects came to the auditorium one after another, and the seats were full. There were even many insects from other armies watching.
Of course, Akar noticed such a grand occasion.
Bugs from different armies can come, so the moves that were commonly used before have to be hidden as much as possible.
The main purpose of this competition is to allow the bugs to learn from each other. So, here's a copy of Tara's match record from yesterday.
Of course, Akar also received a copy.
In order to avoid being discovered, Akar studied it carefully after Xu Feng fell asleep. He even gained some insights.
Tara was always frivolous and had a bad mouth. After watching his fighting skills, Akar had to admit that there was a reason why this insect was valued by the emperor.
It just happened to help him fill in the gaps and make up for the lack of speed in his moves.
"The quality of the First Army's games was just different. They were absolutely fantastic, and I learned a lot from them."
"Of course! This is the First Army, and look who's leading it. He's the youngest supreme commander in history."
The female soldier who heard the admiring voice sighed, "It's a pity. During a Zerg invasion, his mental strength collapsed. It took a long time to recover before he finally emerged. Now he can't be a commander and can only stay in the army to do training work."
"Yes," another insect echoed. "It's a shame that he can't be a commander when he's still young. It's a waste of his abilities."
"Let's not talk about that. I think there seems to be a promising young man this time. He's still very young, and the ability he showed on the field may have the potential to replace Admiral Haywhite and become the younger supreme commander."
"That's number 7, right?"
"Yes, it's him. Even a discerning eye can see that he is extraordinary."
Recalling the insect of move number 7, he fell into deep thought: "This insect move seems somewhat familiar to me. But that insect can't appear here."
"What if?"
"How could he possibly return to the army after committing treason?" the thoughtful insect replied after a long pause. "Besides, this insect seems even stronger, with an added speed advantage. Compared to the insect I know, his moves are even more refined."
After hearing the reason given by the insect next to it, the insect that listened to it agreed repeatedly with lingering fear: "That's definitely not the case. It must be other insects. Maybe they learned it from that insect."
…
Such a grand and wonderful game has come to an end.
The First Army Department returned to its original normal state.
Not surprisingly, the champion was Akar.
*
"Have you noticed anything unusual?" a low voice sounded.
The competition is being summarized and awards are being presented on stage.
High White remained calm and appeared beside the person he had sent to monitor the bugs.
A familiar voice sounded, but the supervisor remained calm, showing no subconscious reaction of being frightened.
Apparently, this had happened many times before. He didn't even turn around to look at the insects, hearing the familiar voice. He continued to monitor the area not far away while answering High White's question: "Except for the initial conversation with Allen, Harks hasn't had any contact with any insects since then."
"What did you say to Alan?"
"We chatted briefly about what Alan did to help Hux yesterday."
"Nothing else?"
"I also gave Alan a gift."
"Has Alan left yet?"
"No, the awards ceremony should still be going on now."
"Go back and see what's in the things Hux sent."
"Yes, Your Highness."
After the back-and-forth briefing ceremony ended, Hay White did not stay any longer, nor did he appear on the stage. Instead, he walked out without looking back, as if he had something urgent to do and walked hurriedly.
Snap——
"Be careful!" Alan's voice sounded angry.
His shoulder was under pressure, and the shoulder of the insect coming from the opposite side hit his arm. The bag in his hand was hit violently and slipped instantly, completely knocking over the contents of the bag.
Scattered all over the ground.
Alan's rage was still raging, and all he saw was the mess on the ground. The insect that had harmed him had long since disappeared without a trace.
"What's wrong?" A roar came from behind. Akar turned around subconsciously and found that it was still the familiar bug. He took a big step behind Alan and his worried voice sounded.
Allen suppressed his anger a little, stepped aside to reveal the mess behind him, letting Akar see it, and briefly explained what happened.
"A blind bug bumped into me and scattered everything on the ground."
"And the culprit?"
"I didn't notice it. It should have run away long ago." Alan said sadly, squatting silently and picking up the things.
"What are you going to do?"
Akar helped Allen pick up the last crystal and put it in the bag, then stood up and looked at Allen, who had calmed down.
"I don't have anything to lose, but that bug might be in trouble! Let's just forget about it this time!"
When picking up the things again, Alan deliberately counted the number of crystals.
After discovering that the crystals were not missing, Allen guessed that the bug wasn't a thief. His anger dissipated.
I was thinking that I should hurry back and use these crystals to avoid any more trouble.
Allen thought, forget it, and said the same thing to Akar.
Akar really didn't care about the insects, and he didn't continue to ask about their opinions. After all, it was someone else's business, and it wouldn't be good to interfere too much.
"Okay, then I'll go back first. The thing I gave you isn't here, so make sure you check it carefully when you get back!"
Alan was so angry when the crystal fell to the ground just now, and Akar's words at this time made him think of something.
"Okay, it's definitely all right."
Seeing the deep meaning in his eyes, Akar realized that Allen already knew what he was referring to.
He nodded with relief, stopped pestering her, and left.
Allen, however, was still frightened and walked quickly back. His hand, which was not holding the bag, quietly touched the lining of his clothes.
Slightly above the level of the flat fabric, he realized what it was.
His anxious mood was instantly relieved. Fortunately, the money was still there and he didn't put it directly into his pocket.
Thinking of this, Alan noticed something different.
That bug just now might have done it on purpose.
Thinking about it this way, Alan still felt that it was right not to make a big deal and investigate at the time. Otherwise, if something was involved and he suddenly disappeared one day, he would have no idea what had happened.
What Allen can perceive, Akar can certainly perceive as well.
"Your Highness, they may not have dispelled their doubts yet."
"It's okay. As long as they can't find any evidence and let you leave the army, you'll be safe for now."
Xu Feng accepted this well. After all, once there is a doubt, it is impossible to dispel it so easily.
Instead, it was another matter that made Xu Feng feel uneasy.
He was in a passive position last night, thinking only about how to conceal the truth. Today during the day, with no other chores and plenty of time, Xu Feng thought of his suspicions.
Thinking about the information I found on Starnet again.
Xu Feng's expression darkened, and with some uncertainty in his mind, he expressed his guess.
"Maybe it's not just a simple false accusation. Does Xu Tianze's words yesterday still have any impact?"
"Mutated insects?" Akar thought carefully about the details of yesterday, and gave an answer with some hesitation but certainty.
Xu Feng looked at Akar with satisfaction, a look that seemed to acknowledge his guess. "I also think this isn't right. I also searched for information about mutant insects today."
"The most recent news about the mutant insects seems to have come from when Hai White was fighting off the pirates for the last time."
Xu Feng nodded. This was what he had found. The Zerg people hated the mutants deeply. Ever since the term came out, every time they encountered the mutants, the empire suffered a heavy blow.
Each time, the losses were heavy.
Therefore, the Empire has always attached great importance to such matters and has strict regulations. Since the last battle of High White, the mutant insects have disappeared from the minds of the insect people for a long time.
It has even become so forgotten that the insect people have forgotten their fear of it and still use it in daily jokes from time to time.
"Your Highness, do you think there is something wrong with Xu Tianze?" Seeing Xu Feng nod, Akar continued to guess.
Xu Feng continued to nod in agreement.
But Akar immediately denied it: "But the mutant worms are equivalent to the zombies recorded in ancient history. They have no consciousness. The reason why they pose a huge threat to the empire when they appear is because they are contagious and have strong attack power."
Akar concluded: "Once they show up, they're easily spotted."
This is what Xu Feng found out today, so of course he knew it. But Xu Tianze's abnormality is also worth investigating!
Xu Feng said carefully: "Is it possible that they have evolved? In the past, there would always be an outbreak every year, but it has been a long time since the last outbreak?"
Akar said without hesitation: "Admiral Hai White completely eliminated the mutant insects during his last battle."
"Haywhite?"
As the former supreme commander of the empire, he is a supreme being in the hearts of every insect, and his achievements are remembered by every insect.
Xu Feng, an outsider, had never experienced all this and was able to break away from the inherent thinking of the insect people and pinpoint the key to the problem.
Akar was shocked by the name Xu Feng said, and his mind suddenly started to work.
Yes, the related insect creatures this time also include Hay White.
Just by realizing it, Akar broke out in a cold sweat. He couldn't bear to think about how terrifying it would be if he looked into it in depth.
If it is really related to Hay White, then this matter may be involved, which is a bit wide and serious.
Akar was momentarily shocked, still a little unconvinced, and continued to bring up his initial speculation: "But my matter seems to be only related to His Royal Highness the Third Prince. I rejected him. There shouldn't be any connection between me and Hai White!"
"Obviously, we have never had any connection before, except that he is the female monarch of His Royal Highness the Third Prince."
Akar spoke one sentence after another, as if trying to convince Xu Feng, or himself.
As for Akar's suspicion, Xu Feng, who was familiar with the plot, knew the real reason why Hai White targeted Akar.
It comes from a worm, with the most essential desires, evil thoughts, and jealousy.
