"Miss Lina, I'm sorry." Jiang Fei put away the lightsaber in his hand and picked up the rifle.
"Hehe … I didn't expect you to be the consul's spy …" Lina smiled bitterly. No wonder her seduction did not work on Jiang Fei at all!
…
After about half an hour or so, the consul's reinforcements arrived. A large number of military police rushed into the underground building and took control of the situation.
"Major Ralph, please hand over your weapon to us." A Lieutenant Colonel came up to Jiang Fei. Although Jiang Fei was not an enemy, the consul obviously could not allow an unstable factor like him to keep his weapon.
"Alright." Jiang Fei handed the rifle over. However, as he kept the lightsaber with him, it was not discovered.
Although the consul knew that Jiang Fei still had a lightsaber, he had already been escorted to a safe place by the military police. Moreover, the consul would not be distracted by such a small matter. So, naturally, he would not ask the military police to confiscate Jiang Fei's lightsaber.
In this way, although Jiang Fei's various firearms were confiscated, at least the lightsaber was kept.
"Major Ralph, your mission has been completed. Now, please go with him to rest. Colonel Keno will meet you personally later." The Lieutenant Colonel was quite polite to Jiang Fei.
"Alright!" Jiang Fei nodded. He then looked back and saw that Lina had been taken away by the military police. The consul had also been taken to a safe place.
Then, Jiang Fei followed the Second Lieutenant out of the underground building. At this time, the entire consul's residence was under martial law. As for how the battle with the consul was going, Jiang Fei no longer cared.
After Lina's assassination failed, the consul and his clones could only struggle at death's door. After all, they were now hungry and thirsty, and they did not have enough ammunition. It would not be easy to take down the D5 industrial zone.
If they could not take down the D5 industrial zone, the consul and his clone army would not be able to get any supplies. In the absence of supplies, their condition would only worsen. Therefore, Jiang Fei was basically certain that the consul's rebellion could be said to have failed.
After more than half an hour, the Second Lieutenant drove Jiang Fei to a military camp. This was a very formal military camp. At first glance, Jiang Fei could tell that it was not a temporary location. Here, Jiang Fei was placed in a single barracks.
"Major Ralph, you are free to move around in the barracks. However, it is best that you do not attend the meetings in the conference room. Many of the meetings involve military secrets," said the Second Lieutenant.
"Yes! I understand! "Jiang Fei nodded, then said to the Second Lieutenant," Can I leave the barracks? "
"Theoretically, it's possible. Colonel Keno didn't forbid you from leaving the camp, but I suggest you wait for a while. Colonel Keno will come to see you after he's done with the urgent military affairs," the second lieutenant said.
"Alright!" Jiang Fei nodded.
"By the way, Major Ralph, if you need anything, just let me know. Colonel Keno told me to try my best to satisfy all your requests." The second lieutenant said.
"That's pretty good. By the way, what's your name?" Jiang Fei asked.
"My name is Chinoch, Major!" The second lieutenant said.
"Alright, Chinoch. Go ahead. I want to rest for the meeting." Jiang Fei said to Chinoch.
"Alright! Major, if you need anything from me, just press this button. " Chinoch said as he placed a gadget that looked like a remote control on a table in the barracks.
"Alright!" Jiang Fei nodded, then Chinoch went out.
After Chinoch left, Jiang Fei sat on the bed and began to think about what he had just experienced.
At the last moment, Jiang Fei abandoned Lina and chose the Archon. Other than Keno using Natasha as a threat, he had actually considered other things.
First of all, after killing the Archon, would the Sheriff be able to take over? Lina was very confident about this, but Jiang Fei did not think so. He was also someone who was used to power struggles in the three-dimensional world.
The current situation seemed to be a battle between the sheriff and the archon for the dominion of the gamma dimension. But if the archon was assassinated, and the clone army under the sheriff's command was at the end of its tether, what would Keno, who had a large number of troops, choose?
Jiang Fei, who was familiar with history and had experienced many power struggles, believed that Colonel Keno would definitely command the military and police to continue to attack the sheriff. As long as he killed the sheriff, he would immediately change from Colonel Keno to Consul Keno, who was in charge of the military and had a relatively high status.
When power was right in front of him and within his reach, Jiang Fei did not believe that anyone could resist the temptation of power!
If Keno really had the last laugh, what would happen to Jiang Fei? Although Keno would gain the most in the end, as the former Archon's assassin, Jiang Fei would definitely be wanted. When that happened, he would be in the most disadvantageous situation. Although Jiang Fei had multiple time skills and was confident that he could escape from the building below, he did not stay in the Gamma Dimension to survive. He needed to improve his status and come into contact with the secrets of the Gamma Dimension as much as possible. He also needed to find an opportunity to find out the whereabouts of the Snow Beast!
Once he was wanted, Jiang Fei would inevitably be forced to live a life of hiding. If that happened, not only would Natasha's safety not be guaranteed, Jiang Fei would also be unable to complete his mission in the Gamma Dimension.
Therefore, after considering this point, Jiang Fei finally chose to abandon Lina. As long as the Consul did not die, it was almost impossible for Keno to ascend to the throne. Although he had a lot of troops under his command, if he openly rebelled, the military and police might not listen to him. When that time came, the Consul would rise to power and Keno's rebellion would collapse.
Jiang Fei believed that Keno could also think of this. As long as the Archon did not die, he would obediently be his Colonel.
As for the promise made by the Archon and Colonel Keno, Jiang Fei also believed that they would not go back on their word. The reason was very simple. Under normal circumstances, Jiang Fei would not be able to threaten the Archon's rule. A person who was both capable and could not threaten the ruler was the ruler's favorite.
After this assassination, Jiang Fei believed that after the Archon resolved the threat posed by the Sheriff, he would also feel the threat posed by Keno. He also needed to raise a strong subordinate to balance Keno.
The way of balance was a compulsory course for those in power. The Archon could not sit back and watch Colonel Keno rise to power after the Sheriff was removed.
