Chapter 198
Outside the reception room.
Zhi Ling sent Lu Ze away with a smile.
Judging from the surface, you would think that the two of them have a good relationship.
But as soon as Lu Ze left, the smile on Zhi Ling's face suddenly disappeared. He called his subordinates over, whispered a few words to them, and then sent them down.
Looking at the direction where Lu Ze left, Zhi Ling's face was calm.
This Lu Ze is quite interesting. Even though I had guessed that he was not simple, I still underestimated him.
Recalling the conversation between the two just now, Zhi Ling thought somewhat unwillingly that he had never had the upper hand at any moment in the entire conversation. He was being led by the nose from beginning to end.
But in the end, he reached a cooperation with the other party.
Even if Lu Ze really had some extraordinary background, the Ka Jin Trading House would definitely not be afraid of him.
What's more, this deal only benefits me, so there is no reason to refuse it.
Lu Ze left the Card Gold Trading House with a light golden crystal card between his fingertips, stroking the card back and forth between his fingers.
The crystal card is transparent as a whole and feels very textured when held in the hand. There is a pair of slowly unfolding wings on the front of the crystal card, and a line of interstellar universal language is engraved on the lower right corner.
Translated, it means "Tianjia".
The crystal card looks similar to the bearer crystal card issued by Interstellar Bank, but has an extra layer of anti-counterfeiting.
With this card, he has the status of a high-level VIP.
The card is jointly produced by the trading houses in the black market that are responsible for Tianjia-related trade. It is only valid during the trading month when the Tianjia tribe trades each year. The pattern on the outdated crystal card will shatter and the card will become useless.
During this trading month, anyone holding this card can participate in any auction.
This time, he appeared in front of the Ka Jin Trading House and reached a cooperation with Zhi Ling. Half of the reason was for this card, and the other half was to complete the previous plan.
If time is not so urgent, this card does not have to be obtained from the Spirit. He has other ways to take it from other owners.
After putting the card away, Lu Ze did not return to the hotel he had stayed in before, but chose to change to a more comfortable and high-end hotel that better suited his status.
Previously, living in that cramped and shabby hotel could be said to be to conceal their identities and hide the traces of Tenolais and Fern, but now living here seems to be an attempt to cover up something.
After all, after meeting He Zhiling, the other party would immediately send someone to investigate his origins.
At that time, the identity of "black businessman" will be fully revealed to the public.
It was not Dan Sheng who pretended to be the Flame Scale Civilization, nor was it the Tianjia Clan with a mysterious origin in Aesop's eyes, but an identity that appeared in its true form since Lu Ze appeared in the Western Ring Star Belt.
To this end, he deliberately designed to get to know Tenolais and showed his face in front of the Spirits, so that they would invisibly endorse his identity.
Of course, these are just insignificant parts of his plan, small goals that he achieved along the way.
In the hotel's most expensive suite, the furnishings exuded a luxury that was out of place on the black market. A dress made of high-end fabrics was neatly ironed and hung in front of him.
We have the outfit, but we just need two bodyguards.
No boss comes alone to discuss business. Even if he is very strong, he needs his subordinates to keep up appearances.
Fortunately, he lacks everything now, except subordinates.
There are still four thousand Tianjia Zerg who followed him out of Tianyun Star and are waiting for orders with nothing to do. It is easy to pick a few suitable ones to follow him.
Lu Ze sent a message and changed his clothes expressionlessly, thinking that it was time to test the results of his teaching during this period.
The other side.
At the inner city stop of the West Ring Star Belt, a group of five people were getting off the bus.
These were the members of the Tianjia tribe who had received Lu Ze's message. They were heading towards the nearest black market entrance according to the information given by Lu Ze.
There were a total of five thousand Zerg that followed Lu Ze to the Western Ring Star Belt. They had only been in the Western Ring Star Belt for a week, and even though they had amazing adaptability, they had only just gotten used to it.
But there are always some Zerg with amazing adaptability who can stand out among the many Zergs.
They are the better individuals among the five thousand Zerg, so they naturally came into Lu Ze's sight. When Lu Ze needs useful subordinates and helpers, they are the first choice.
Because of the gender base issue, most of these Zergs are female, with only a few being male.
In addition to physical problems, male insects are more suitable for clerical and logistical work, while female insects are more suitable for doing the work of fighting outside as thugs and charging into battle.
So the five Zergs that Lu Ze called to the black market this time were all female.
——After the female insects arrived at the Western Ring Star Belt, Lu Ze arranged every one of them into the virtual world to learn virtual competitive combat. Lu Ze knew the performance of each insect and the record of every battle.
These five female insects are among the best who have stayed in the virtual arena the longest and have the highest winning rate.
——They are not the five strongest ones, but the five that Lu Ze thinks are most suitable after combining combat power and strategy.
After receiving Lu Ze's message, they bought suitable clothes as ordered, then took public transportation from the edge of the inner city into the inner city, and then went to the black market and found a hotel called "Chun Yu".
At the front desk, the leading female insect asked.
"We are Mr. Lu Ze's subordinates. May I ask which room Mr. Lu Ze lives in?"
The receptionist in charge of registration glanced at them and became more enthusiastic when he heard who they were looking for.
"What are your names?"
"Yi Yun."
After confirming that the name was correct, the receptionist said, "Mr. Lu Ze is in charge of room 304 upstairs. Do you need me to show you the way?"
"No, we'll go by ourselves."
After they turned around and walked upstairs, the receptionist took out a light computer, took a photo of them, and sent it out.
Just a few hours ago, after this guest named Lu Ze checked in, someone found her and paid her to keep an eye on him. Any news and information about Lu Ze could be exchanged for star coins.
Besides, it's just for me to take some photos and keep an eye on the guests, there's no risk in that.
The main reason is that the other party's offer is not low. Only a fool would refuse such an easy-to-earn job.
Upstairs, room 304.
Yi Yun raised his hand and knocked on the door.
Soon, the door opened.
The black-haired young man standing inside the door glanced at them, took a step back, turned around and spoke as he walked.
"Come in, everyone."
Yi Yun and the others had never seen Lord Lu Ze in person, but they had seen photos of him, so they immediately matched the black-haired young man with the photo when they saw him.
Following Lord Lu Ze into the room, several Zergs lined up and saluted him.
"Hello, Mr. Lu Ze."
Interstellar etiquette requires emergency training. When disguising your identity outside, you must do it thoroughly and not let anything slip through the cracks in the details.
Lu Ze changed into the shirt and trousers at this moment. After putting on the formal suit, he looked elegant and easy-going.
"You're getting along pretty well, aren't you?" Lu Ze raised his hand to signal them not to stand, "Sit down, everyone."
The rooms in this kind of hotel are not very clean, and there are always a few extra "eyes", but since Lu Ze dares to stay there, he naturally has a way to solve it.
Once the jammer is released, no one will care about these useless "eyes".
Before Yi Yun and the others received his message today, they had never met each other. It was naturally impossible for thousands of female insects to know each other, but they were not completely unfamiliar with each other.
After they reported their IDs in the virtual arena, they discovered that although the bugs had never met each other, they had fought each other.
It's another kind of familiarity.
Facing Yi Yun and the others, Lu Ze's expression seemed a little gentler.
According to Lu Ze's AI logic, Yi Yun and the others are His Majesty's subjects, so it's normal for them to be closer to him than outsiders.
None of Yi Yun and the others refuted Lu Ze's words, and they all sat down in unison.
The female insects have always lived a submissive life on Tianyun Star. Even though things have changed after Qi Heng's arrival, Qi Heng has not changed this. He has simply directed this slave-like obedience towards the military.
Back then, the Tianjia Zerg were the most powerful army under the Overlord. Now that they have restored their previous training methods, it is surprisingly in line with the habits of the female Zerg.
The 'Gray Mist' is a whole, and all Zergs in it need to obey reasonable orders from their superiors. As the person in charge of these 5,000 Zergs, Lu Ze also has absolute command over them.
Based on this, no Zerg would disobey Lu Ze's orders.
This behavior is a bit rigid, but it works well in these extraordinary times.
After all, they are working under Lu Ze, the AI, so there is no point in thinking too much. AI has always been the most practical.
"We are going to attend an auction tonight. I have sent you the information about the auction. You can take a look at it."
"What to do at night, and the precautions are also listed."
Lu Ze said to them: "I only have one request for you, do what you should do and don't make any mistakes at the critical moment."
Yi Yun and the others lowered their heads to check.
After reading the information on the optical brain line by line, their expressions suddenly changed, which was caused by the emotion called anger.
At this time, you should say something to calm their emotions.
Lu Ze thought about this and said, "There's no need to be angry. We will take them away tonight."
The most important items traded at the auction were a group of young Tianjia Zergs, just like those poor Zerg cubs on Tianyun Star that were also supposed to be trafficked, except that their fate was even more pitiful.
If Lu Ze and the others didn’t show up this time.
When Yi Yun raised his head, he had already controlled his emotions: "Lord Lu Ze, we understand and will not disrupt your plan."
With Lord Lu Ze here, he will definitely be able to rescue these young insect cubs. They should trust Lord Lu Ze, just like they trust the "doctor" who came to Tianyun Star to save them.
"Um."
Lu Ze didn't say much. If there was anything useful, just one more sentence would be enough. There was no point in saying more.
He had examined the personalities of Yi Yun and the others and found that none of them were impulsive, which was why they were chosen.
Otherwise, when he gets there, if his subordinates see the cubs being auctioned at the auction venue and run wild and cause chaos... that scene will really make his CPU crack.
Lu Ze pointed to the cabinet beside him and said, "There are things prepared for you in there, go and take a look."
"If you have any questions, you can ask me."
It was Yi Yun and the others' first official mission. Although they were very restrained, some curiosity still appeared on their faces.
As I walked over, I wondered what would be inside.
As a result, when I opened the cabinet door, I saw several boxes inside.
No more, no less, exactly five.
Yi Yun and the others took out the box and turned around to meet Lord Lu Ze's gaze.
Lu Ze: "Take whatever you want, it's all the same."
The box was opened, revealing the matching standard weapons.
These were weapons that had been used in virtual competitions, and now when they held them in their hands, they had a strange yet familiar feeling.
Yi Yun assembled the weapon somewhat awkwardly. After a careful inspection, he found that this weapon was somewhat different from the one in the virtual competition. It was engraved with an alien cloud pattern.
Lu Ze: “I think everyone can use it.”
"Sure, no problem." Yi Yun tested the feel of it, then tightened his grip and said affirmatively.
Lu Ze noticed his nervousness and said calmly: "Relax, we are going to the auction and may not need them."
That night.
The Southern Cross Trading House welcomed a guest holding a VIP card, and behind the guest were bodyguards with stern and cool expressions that gave off a murderous vibe.
