Mungo took a sip of his wine, silently agreeing to this fact. Sheyan pondered for a while, then asked another question.
"Doesn't that mean the Empire can make a new Major General's Blood Armour for me?"
Mungo replied flatly.
"Of course not. Although 90% of your armour is manufactured in the Empire, 10% of the key technology and core components are still provided by the Realm."
Sheyan said coldly.
"That person dared to withhold the armour. Isn't he afraid of the Realm's retaliation?"
Mungo smiled bitterly.
"Actually, it's not really withholding. It's just delaying the delivery time as much as possible. It's almost an open secret now. To be more specific, it's using all kinds of excuses to evade the Realm, such as the department in charge of processing the armour being restructured, or the spaceship sent out for the mission crashing. If you can't drag it out until the end and really like that thing, you might as well accept the punishment and pay a huge price to get that thing. This isn't without precedent. "
"Precedent? There's a precedent? "Sheyan asked curiously.
"Yes." Mungo smiled bitterly. "Back then, the Faceless One of the Big Ben Research Institute paid the price of almost half a galaxy to collect enough fine from the Nightmare Realm. He gritted his teeth and kept a Blood Weapon for himself. Within half a year, he became the shadow president of the Big Ben Research Institute."
"One last question." Sheyan's eyes reflected the light of the cabin's navigation lights. There was a strange glint in his eyes. "Was it Prince Pombaru or the Arnold family who took my Major General's Blood Armour?"
Mungo's body trembled as he said in shock, "What?
"How did you know?"
Sheyan laughed.
"You're now a famous person guarding an important place in the Empire, and you're also in your element between the royal family and the local separatist forces. If anyone wants to touch you, they'll first have to consider the joint reaction of those two forces. So, the chances of the other forces doing this are very slim. It's Prince Pombaru, isn't it?" Sheyan asked. "That's right.
"He's from the Big Ben Research Institute, so he has a very high vision. As far as I know, the institute is also working on the research of cyborgs. In theory, these guys can also exert the unique power of the Blood Armour!"
"No." Mungo's answer was beyond Sheyan's expectations. "The one who confiscated the armour is the Arnold family. Prince Pombaru studies dark powers, so he has no interest in your physical-type armour. Your armor will be sent to the core area of the Milky Way for quenching, and it will pass through the defense area of Andromeda. "
"Then, I asked them to bring it over, and the Arnold family took a liking to it and decided to steal it for themselves." Sheyan smiled and replied, "That's right. I think there are only a few people who would dare to do such a thing. I heard a guy called Monzon Luci has gone missing. So the one who did it is Monchi Colbert?"
"Yes," Mungo replied.
Sheyan sat there with his eyes closed for a while, then took a sip of Mungo's wine. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and revealed a strange smile.
"Looks like you've made up your mind."
As a matter of fact, Mungo was also oblivious to the situation before. After being reminded by Sheyan, he made up his mind. His choice was not difficult to guess. On one side was his old master, who regarded him as a slave, and was now on the verge of completely falling out with him because of the missing girls case. On the other side was a prince with great talent and bold vision, who had the power of the world behind him. Behind him was the shadow of the Big Ben Research Institute. To put it bluntly, even if he was a dog, being able to hang the word 'royal' on his head would be more honorable!
"If that's the case." He felt as if there was a flame spreading from his throat and stomach to his limbs and bones. He turned the bottle upside down and watched the remaining wine drop by drop onto the glass coffee table. Every word he said was like a knife stabbing into Mungo's heart. "You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right.
"If you're going to do it, you have to be ruthless and ruthless! The most taboo thing for betrayers is to be suspected repeatedly. If you make your words final and do things to the extreme, you will completely cut off the possibility of reconciliation with your old master. Then, your new master will naturally be less suspicious of you. "
"What do you mean …?" Mungo asked, perplexed.
Sheyan chuckled and replied.
"It's not convenient for you to do this in person. Even if you do, you probably won't be able to show off under the influence of the Arnold family, so I'll take the loss and help you with this. You may have lost the authority to control the base, but Alps Base 7 is so big that the people Prince Pombaru brought with him definitely won't be enough to control the city. All you have to do is restrain your subordinates and make them selectively blind."
With such a simple condition, Mungo would definitely agree to it without any hesitation! Of course, in exchange, he would also take care of Sheyan's matter.
***
Due to Monzon Luci's disappearance, the entire Arnold family had withdrawn to the warship they came on.
However, the entire Alps Base 7 was now under the control of the royal family, and they had also received permission from the General Staff of the Empire. Under such circumstances, the warships of the Arnold family were forced to shut down their antimatter energy reactors for "safety maintenance". They could only obtain energy from the external interface to maintain their basic activities. With such weak energy reactions, it was impossible for the warships to even take off, let alone use weapons.
Currently, the seven huge steel warships were anchored in the dock, but only the beacon lights were shining evenly. They were no longer as bright as they used to be. They looked like seven huge, cold, frozen snakes. The lead grey colour on their surfaces was very clear and oppressive. The atmosphere on the warships was also very oppressive. No one dared to even breathe loudly.
At that moment, on the steel street in the middle of the night, against the backdrop of the vast starry sky, a man slowly walked over. Although the man's face could not be seen clearly, he exuded a dignified aura from head to toe. Judging from the way he walked over, he looked like a Pacific-class steel beast that had just been activated. Although he might only be moving centimetre by centimetre across the steel dock hundreds of meters high, he was irresistible!
They were in a precarious situation right now, and their warship's energy had been completely restrained, so they could not use their powerful weapons at all. Therefore, the entire Arnold family was on high alert. There was no way they would allow such a strange and mysterious person to get close to their flagship in the middle of the night!
Two elite soldiers stepped forward, but the arrogance of the Arnold family was reflected in their words.
"Get lost! Or die! "
Therefore, the two of them were sent flying in the next second. It looked like they had been hit by a heavy truck that was spewing black smoke at a speed of one to two hundred kilometers and had a container attached to it. They were sent flying for more than twenty meters. The armor on their bodies was scattered and scattered, and they rolled more than ten times on the ground.
Seeing such a scene, the group of people widened their eyes in shock and anger! Amidst the hoarse roars from the communicator, three squads swam over like sharks that had smelled blood. At the same time, the alarm and psychological attack were activated at the same time.
"According to Chapter 134 of the Imperial Constitution, you have committed a serious violation that warrants the death penalty. Put your hands over your head and kneel down facing the wall at once. Otherwise, we will not rule out the possibility of using weapons to attack you …"
The figure ignored them and continued to stride forward, ignoring the warning and the three squads as if they were nothing! All of a sudden, the three teams pulled the trigger, forming a terrifying and dense crossfire net. Sparks flew as the bullets hit the steel wall, and the trajectory of the bullets became even more lethal.
Gunpowder weapons were still active in the army at this time. Why had they not been phased out in the era when energy weapons were flourishing? Firstly, they could still kill anyone. In terms of range, they were not inferior to energy weapons, and they also had an advantage in firing speed. Secondly, the power of energy weapons was still proportional to their size. The power of individual energy weapons did not have a decisive advantage over firearms. Thirdly, and most importantly, they were cheap.
The three squads were made up of veterans who had survived the battlefield. Under such heavy firepower, it was almost impossible for the figure to avoid their combined fire, whether he crawled, rolled, or even jumped.
But the figure suddenly bent down, and the ear-piercing sound of metal tearing could be heard. Without any movement, the figure tore off a large piece of the steel transmission belt with one hand! The steel plate, which was five or six square meters in diameter, easily blocked the bullets. Then … the figure suddenly turned around and threw the huge steel plate in his hand at the squad in front of him as if he was throwing a discus!
The scene was incomparably bloody. Under the crazy impact of the steel plate, at least five people were sent flying. Two people were even cut in half at the waist. In the end, the spinning steel plate smashed into the steel wall next to it, creating a long string of sparks and emitting a teeth-numbing sound of metal scraping against the wall! The heat from the steel plate was so high that even the flesh and blood attached to it evaporated!
Then, his figure flashed and rushed into another battle team. Everyone should have seen the scene of a billiard game before. Sheyan was like a white ball, rushing into the middle of the billiard formation. He stayed in place, while the rest of the billiard balls were all sent flying away!

Of course, what happened here immediately attracted the attention of Prince Pombaru's forces! They were the special guards of the royal family, so they were aware of the slightest disturbance, let alone such a bloody battle on Steel Street. (To be continued.
