Zerg's Golden House Insect

"I want to bloodbath the Federation and kill all those bastards!"

Xia En glanced at the insects with a serious expression and vowed.

"Little guy, you still have a little ambition."

Juvayer grinned, "But to be honest, little Sean, just relying on your B-level sleep?" Joyye paused, and emphasized the pronunciation of the B word:

"In the legion, it's not that you just say a few nice words and act coquettishly, and everything will be fine. Still want revenge? You can't even tame a small team. Professional things are left to professional worms. I promise you, I will take care of El Law, let him agree to send troops to conquer the Federation."

"Joyeur, if the promise comes too casually, it will lack credibility." Alpha's voice cooled down:

"In the last accident, the legion suffered heavy losses, and many worms were immersed in grief. Not to mention that some worms of the First Fleet were detained in Red Hart. They rushed out in such a hurry without knowing anything. As cannon fodder?"

"Elfa, that's how you cowered and looked forward and backward. That's why those land turtle lords in your star field climbed on your head and ran wild. It wasn't their cousins ​​who died. Of course they were happy to retreat. Hide behind other legions of the empire , making a fortune in silence, but what they are best at.”

"I agree." Nino, who had been silent all this time, nodded:

"Other families in the empire are waiting for us to express our position. Only a strong demonstration can dispel those bugs that are about to move. Moreover, the latest polls show that an all-out war with the Federation is already the mainstream public opinion trend. Retreating at this time will be very bad for us in the future. .”

That's what Sean had been waiting for.

He acted in his true colors, and threw some bait to the insects in front of him, and they bit them unsuspectingly.Although the three worms who came today seem to have temporarily unified their positions, they still have huge differences when it comes to specific interests.

Bear the brunt of the advance and retreat of the Looster Legion.

Before Yuri's accident, the main fleet of the Legion was fighting at the forefront of the local war with the Federation.This is a Looster tradition.They are the sharpest swords in the empire, and they are invincible wherever they point.The most difficult and tricky things are undoubtedly their exclusive.

It's just that this tradition has gradually been questioned by some members of the family in the past hundred years.

It is also a rich and noble family that rose in the early days of the empire. Some families with similar backgrounds to Looster have spread their tentacles to politics, business and other fields for thousands of years. The Philo family has many industries.

However, Looster has always adhered to his own ancient principles, never getting involved in the political arena, and concentrating most of his resources on cultivating powerful female and male insects.In the war years, great strength is everything, so Looster has always stood tall, and this approach is also generally recognized and respected.

But the empire has been at peace for nearly 300 years. Even though there have been some gaps with the Federation after the Battle of Lautning, everyone is used to it, whether it has been big or small intermittently these years.

Neither the Federation nor the Empire can afford the huge cost of launching an all-out war.

Against this background, Franz and Uri's non-interference in politics, which they have always adhered to, seems very old-fashioned.

Only by becoming a member of the core interest group can you get the cream on the top of the cake.Among the younger generation of the family, Joyer and Nino have always declared clearly and vigorously that they want reform and progress, and they have gathered a lot of power around them over the years.

Is Alpha...

Xia En glanced at him. His cousin has been in a slump since he failed the second step-up. He doesn't care about domestic politics at all. He is addicted to alcohol all day long. He is good at eating, drinking and having fun. Every time he gathers, he will teach him a bunch of rules of thumb .

It's just that as a "playful male", Alpha is not as powerless as Xia En. Relying on the foundation laid by his male father, his eloquent mouth and the wit in his bones, he is still in the inner circle of the family. occupied a place.

"Don't say anything."

Robert, who was the oldest present, said, "I think the young master is not in good spirits, and I'm afraid he hasn't recovered yet. Let's talk when Chris and the others come over tomorrow."

On the second day, when Lloyd was still in a coma, the remaining four elders from Looster also rushed over.

Elder is a common name, but in fact, he is the ruler of the relatively well-developed family of the Looster family in the thousands of years of history.The purpose of their coming is clear at a glance, and naturally it is the joint meeting mentioned by Alpha.

Xia En asked Curt yesterday to get a general understanding of this thing.

To put it simply, the highest decision-making power of the family is evenly distributed from the hands of one worm to the hands of seven worms.This is an emergency plan in consideration of the consistently high battle damage rate of Looster.The last time it was actually used was in the all-out war more than 300 years ago, when the Looster family was completely destroyed, and only a young male that had just broken its shell survived.

For a noble like Looster, the struggle for power within the family has never been less than that of the royal family.After the little male grew up, it took many years and countless bloody storms to take back the power that the Grand Duke of Looster should have one after another from the collateral.Because he was fed up with the difficulties of being shackled by his in-laws, this generation of grand dukes only married one worm in his life.Under this family style, the subsequent descendants all adhered to the same principle, and only a female monarch was established for several generations, successfully creating the family label of the Grand Duke Looster of "affectionate and dedicated" and "clean and self-disciplined" in the empire.

True affection or false affection... Xia En can't be sure, but when he was growing up, the males around him abided by the rules left by their ancestors, and they didn't mess around and show mercy like other families.The most recent example is his elder brother Yuri Looster, who is close to the age of the second advancement, and he has hardly been seen to have any scandals or ambiguous objects.The second example is his male father, Franz Looster, who only married his female father.

Of course, the "male bug" here does not include Young Master Xia En.

Getting back to the topic, the proposal of this joint meeting was also mentioned by these elders 12 years ago, but Yuri was already an adult at that time, so this proposal that was too obvious within the family only took the lead and disappeared without a trace no trace.

And now...

Xia En adjusted the tie on his chest, sneered, and pushed open the door of the meeting room.

Inside the door is a luxuriously decorated conference room.In a row of chairs against the wall in the conference room, there are other bugs who are not qualified to sit on the table, most of them are young.

In the middle are two long, wide, long and large tables facing each other and placed separately.At this time, the tables are full, so the high-backed chairs placed separately and empty in front of the two tables are particularly conspicuous.

Shane didn't explain his lateness.He walked forward without turning his eyes, turning a blind eye to those lingering eyes, and then sat down on the chair representing the highest status of Looster.

Chris—a gray-haired, oldest surviving male in the family—frowned and his face darkened.

He is old-fashioned and serious by nature, and he really hates the weak males who are the mainstream of the empire today.As for Xia En, the famous trash snack, he has always looked down on him.Not to mention that on such an important occasion today, Xiao Xiongzi was not only late, but also acted so arrogantly.

Robert patted him on the shoulder and gave him a calm look. Chris snorted softly and turned his head away.

The chair is very wide and heavy, and it is an antique that is hundreds of years old.Xia En has a slender figure, sitting on it seems like a playful child occupying the adult's position, especially when he is lazily nestled inside, his sitting posture is loose and his manners are lost, without any solemnity that should be expected in this occasion.

Seeing this scene, many worms showed expressions of "as expected", and only because they were afraid of the strict discipline of the family, they did not whisper to each other.

This started 10 minutes ago and is currently just an ordinary family meeting.

In the past ten years, Xia En has also bumped into these elders coming to his house for meetings.

When important matters need to be decided, the Looster Grand Council invites the seven elders and other important members of the family to discuss together.The other worms have the right to make suggestions, and they can express their positions as much as they like, but the final decision is only in the hands of the worm, Grand Duke Looster.

Of course, because such a major event generally requires the cooperation of other elder family resources and affiliated families, this plan is bound to take into account the interests of all branches as much as possible.

As for the time when both can't be taken care of, it depends on the means of Grand Duke Looster.

Powerful, such as Sean's grandfather and Franz.One is extremely powerful and has a tough wrist, which frightens the other elders to obediently obey; the other, like Franz, has a flexible mind and a high emotional intelligence, and can mediate and mediate the needs of all parties.

The closest thing is his elder brother. In the early years, all the worms watched him coldly, waiting to see his jokes. Later, with the support of Lloyd's force, he managed to gain a firm foothold and let these big brothers be honest. The degree of cooperation is not mentioned. It is not easy not to insert knives secretly and confront openly.

"As for making such a big battle?"

With a grunt, Xia En unbuttoned his suit jacket and threw it on the table with a snap. Then he turned on the light screen in front of him and quickly browsed the pre-stored documents and materials inside.

"Young master, this is the agreement we talked about yesterday. You can sign after reading it."

Alpha sent the document to him, then waved his hand, and the attendant waiting in the corner stepped forward, opened a leather folder, and presented the paper agreement and signature pen inside to Sean.

With the development of science and technology, paper certificates are still the most important and credible when it comes to important materials.

Xia En glanced at the agreement.

Like all such documents, most of them are obscure nonsense, with the core hidden in inadvertent little corners.If you lose patience and sign casually, you will fall into the trap set by the other party.

In his previous life, Xia En was tricked several times because of his youth and ignorance. Therefore, he would throw such documents to a team of professional lawyers for review a hundred and eighty times, and only after confirming that they were correct would he sign them.

Now?He put down the paper and found that everyone was satisfied with his reading speed.

"I still don't get it."

Xia En said, "Uri authorized Lloyd, and he also holds my custody. Logically, even if I sign this agreement, it won't have much legal effect, right?"

"Laws are made by worms, so there will naturally be loopholes." Nino smiled slightly - he won a seat on the long table by virtue of his worm veins:

"Not to mention, Clive doesn't have the documents for your transfer of custody. He is talking to himself from the beginning to the end. I have asked to verify the authenticity of the documents, but he has been avoiding them all the time."

Xia En has different views on Nino's remarks.

From the fact that Lloyd had access to his personal worm data, he wasn't lying about it.It is very difficult to obtain this kind of private data that is assigned under the jurisdiction of the central intelligent mastermind. Only real and legal channels can obtain his sleep, consumption, etc. records in a short period of time.

But he will not tell the other party this.So Sean just nodded:

"Then do I still have to go to Red Hart? The invitations to the ball have already been sent out. If it is temporarily withdrawn, uh, I can't explain to His Majesty Zongdi."

"Of course you have to go to the ball." Joyeux said, "Loost has never been a softie. After all, you are the Duke of Loost, and you have been nesting in Bruskay. It's too shameful." gone."

"No, what do you mean, I signed the agreement and I still want to be the Duke?" Xiao Xiongzi widened his eyes, pretending to be surprised.

Robert coughed softly.

Chris frowned.

Johnny - who was sitting at the end of the table - slapped the table happily. "Hey, guys, what did you say to the young master? That's it?"

"Little Xia En, if half a month ago, you had formally stated that you wanted to give up your inheritance rights, of course you could have left without worrying about these troubles."

Alpha gave Johnny a white look, and then patiently explained.

"But it's a pity that you didn't at that time. So it doesn't work now. Lloyd has denied those rumors in your name and submitted the application according to the procedure."

"The ball that you went to the imperial capital this time was held by Zongdi for the 'Duke of Looster', and it was a sign of your official appearance on the social stage. To the public, you are the Grand Duke of Looster. Within a short period of time, the family cannot change the fact."
