Before Riel took Lorraine's insects to the Fire Cloud Galaxy to contact the incoming insects, Paten, who had returned to the Third Legion, had a relatively time-consuming conversation with him at Elvira's strong request.

The conversation is as follows.

"Are you looking for me?"

Paten casually pulled a chair and waved his hand for 008, who had just given up his seat, to sit down.

"What's the matter?"

Patten asked straight to the point: "We'd better not waste our time, sir."

"Tsk, to be honest, I really hate you S-level female insects." Elvira sat casually on the chair with special shackles on his hands.

He was the one who said he wanted to meet Patern, but when he actually met Patern he was not in a hurry anymore.

Coming to see him means that you are valuable to them. In this case, you will naturally have to increase the bargaining chips.

"Where are you going to put me?" Elvira gave a seemingly perfect solution: "I heard that the Yasen Galaxy is a concentration camp for rebels. How about you put me there? I think I will be very popular."

"The route won't pass by there," Paten was too lazy to waste words. He still had a lot of things to do. It was not an easy task to rebuild the Fifth Legion's breached defense line. "Why don't you just tell me your purpose? I don't want to listen to your nonsense."

"Well, you and Admiral Mjolnir... No, now he should be called Reserve Marshal Mjolnir. You and him are really the same type of people."

When Elvira noticed the impatience in Patern's eyes, he changed the subject sharply: "But to be honest, I still prefer dealing with bugs like you."

Smart and cunning enough, but also honest enough that you don't have to worry about being stabbed in the back at any time. To be honest, this is the best choice for doing business.

"You need help, Admiral." Elvira no longer wore the eye patch, and his silver and black pupils were filled with desire and ambition. "And I can help you. I can help you gain the majority of the say on the front line under my brother."

"Harlan Windsor, my noble and learned brother. I suppose you have had some dealings with him, have you not?"

"How do you plan to gain his trust?" Paten asked, "His Highness Harun is not someone who would listen to sweet words, not to mention that you are still..."

He found a more appropriate word: "a guilty conscience."

"No, no, no, Admiral, it seems that you don't know my brother yet." Elvira stared straight at Patern: "In Harun's eyes, what is right and what is wrong is always judged by him alone."

"And it just so happens that in Harun's case," Elvira raised her finger and pointed at herself, smiling ostentatiously and charmingly, "I must be the one who is right."

"..."

Paten's eyes moved. Now this conversation had some meaning. He asked, "When did you decide it was good?"

"what?"

"I asked, when did you figure all this out?"

008 poured hot tea for Paten at the right time, obviously ready for a long talk.

"Let me think, was it that parliament? When you first met Hermann, did you sense the deep alliance between Lorraine and the Third Legion?"

"After that, you have been keeping an eye on Uncle Jonil's movements. Your name was on the banquet list that the Insect King personally attended, but you didn't show up. Did you go to find the location of Uncle Jonil and the others who were 'seriously injured' at the time?"

"Not only did you cut off contact with Stini Leba, you also suppressed all the news about Xiong Bao's death in the Satan Galaxy. Are you preparing to leave the Imperial Star?"

"As it happens, you found a good time."

"Yes, that's right, Admiral, what you said is right," Elvira applauded Patern, "Then Admiral, do you know that I also paid a price to get on the Third Legion's bandwagon?"

He turned his back, lifted his shirt, and showed Paten a scar on his back that ran almost across his entire body from shoulder to waist.

"On full moon nights, when the moon is swallowed, Windsor's power will increase significantly, especially Windsor's male insects. Beelzebub must eat enough food, oh, that is, the king insect, to maintain his false skin."

"No beast will stand with its thorns erect while enjoying a delicious meal. That is the best time to attack Beelzebub."

"It is also the only bargaining chip I can use to trade with you. From the first time I saw that gentleman in the photo on the Star Network, I knew that he would be the one who overturned the chessboard."

"Every wise female insect knows how to stand in line, so Admiral, I wonder if you are satisfied with my sincerity?"

Elvira put down her clothes and faced Patern, waiting for the final result of the negotiation.

He knew Paten well. The more honest he was with them, the more they would let down their guard and the more he would gain.

"You don't seem to think I will refuse?" Paten asked, "Or is everything within your prediction?"

"I don't know what chips give you such confidence, Elvira." He stood up and walked towards the door with a calm tone, as if nothing could cause him any ripples. "But I can tell you that you don't understand the battlefield yet."

"You don't know the Third Legion, and you don't know me either."

"On the battlefield, we are invincible."

Elvira was caught off guard by Patern. This scene was different from what he saw in his dream. For the first time, Elvira felt that things were out of his control.

"You want to fight alone? Do you want to let what happened to the Third Legion three years ago happen again?" he asked.

"……How did you know?"

Paten stopped, turned around and stared at Elvira coldly: "Everything that happened in the Third Legion three years ago has been kept secret. Even Harun would not go against military orders and tell you the truth, let alone Beelzebub."

"So, how did you know?"

008 stood vigilantly beside Elvira, ready to knock him out if he made any unusual movement.

"Hehe, I have my own information channels." Elvira immediately returned to her normal attitude after realizing that she had said the wrong thing.

"Believe it or not, Admiral."

"I can know the secrets of any bug if I want."

"Take me with you, I will be of use to you."
