"I got it." Xiao Ran chuckled. Although the two men's answers did not explain anything, Xiao Ran could still see the difference between the two men.
Just like what Second Lieutenant Melda, who was still in the Victory Fleet, said, the entire Gamiras Empire was ruled by President Desra. He was wantonly arresting people who opposed him and sending them to remote places to work as coolies. Judging from this, the situation inside Gamiras Empire was also unstable. It was ruled by a dark and violent ruler.
In that case, there should be many people in Gamiras who opposed Desra. Xiao Ran felt that Dormier was upright and magnanimous. He could be considered a true soldier and it was easy for people to have a good impression of him. On the other hand, Misella gave Xiao Ran a gloomy feeling.
Judging from their answers, it could be seen that Misella's brain was actually much better than Dormier's. He immediately understood why Xiao Ran raised this question and gave a vague answer. He didn't directly state who was truly loyal to him and was also influencing Dormier with his words.
But Xiao Ran could tell from Misella's answer that his true loyalty wasn't to the Gamiras Empire itself, but to the ruler of Gamiras, Desra. On the other hand, Dormier was much simpler in this regard. He answered without thinking, which showed that while he was loyal, he didn't think about other things. To him, President Desra was no different from the Gamiras Empire. He was a man who was willing to give up his life for his beliefs, but at the same time, he was also an idiot in politics.
And it was precisely because of this that if Xiao Ran wanted to ask something from Dormier, it would be more difficult than Misella, who was only loyal to Desra. This was because Dormier's beliefs were completely different from Misella's. Dormier cared about the safety and interests of the entire Empire, while Misella only cared about Desra's interests.
"To be honest, your current existence isn't a good thing for our fleet. We can't take you with us, but letting you go will bring us more threats. I can't say how I should treat you, but I don't want to hurt you in this situation where there's no battle. So, I hope you can answer my next question properly. If I'm satisfied, I think I can let you leave." Xiao Ran nodded his head and said, "Don't worry, I don't want to hurt you in this situation where there's no more fighting. I hope you can answer my next question properly.
"I heard you say that Iskandar is occupied by a group of thugs. Do those people have a ship that looks exactly like this one? What's the situation with those people now? Do you know why they want to occupy Iskandar?"
"Second, did another group join Gamiras and become an external legion? I need all the information you know. At the same time, I will also send you a piece of real information as thanks."
Indeed, neither of Xiao Ran's questions had anything to do with Gamiras itself. One of them was related to the Overlord Legion, while the other was related to the Impact Corps. He didn't ask about Gamiras' military deployment or combat strength, nor did he ask about the internal situation of Gamiras.
Hearing Xiao Ran's two questions, Dormier and Misella both breathed a sigh of relief. Dormier didn't have a good impression of the Impact Army and the Overlord Legion that occupied Iskandar. He was even more vigilant and suspicious of the Impact Army, especially after the battle with the Victory Fleet.
Misella was well aware of Desra's thoughts about the Impact Army. He was just using them. He knew that Desra only cared about the empress above Iskandar and didn't care about the Impact Army itself. Perhaps he only cared about the weapons and technology displayed by the Impact Army.
Therefore, the two of them didn't feel that there was anything they couldn't say about Xiao Ran's questions. If they gave the answers to these two questions to Xiao Ran in exchange for the possibility of leaving safely, it would be a good thing for them. They could also hand over all the information they had gathered today to Desra.
At this time, Dormier was hoping to persuade Desra not to make an enemy out of the Victory Fleet. It was not that Dormier was afraid of fighting, but he didn't want a meaningless battle that he couldn't see the future of. He also didn't want the war with the Victory Fleet to affect or destroy Gamiras.
Misella guessed that the Victory Fleet was in cahoots with the thugs on Iskandar, which was the Overlord Legion, so they must be opposing the external army. Based on the strength displayed by the Victory Fleet so far, the external army, which mainly used humanoid mobile weapons, should also have considerable combat strength. They might even be able to use the external army to deal with the Victory Fleet.
Regardless of what the two of them were thinking, after a short consideration, Misella took the lead and said, "How can you guarantee that you will let us go after we answer your questions truthfully?"
Xiao Ran glanced at Misella indifferently and said unhurriedly, "If I say I will, then I will. All you can do is believe me."
"Okay, I hope someone like you won't lie to us." Misella took a deep breath and said, "There is indeed a warship similar to your warship on Iskandar. As for the combat strength of that warship, I don't think I need to say much. That group of people has occupied Iskandar's palace and taken the queen as a hostage for a long time. Because of the queen's safety, she is still safe for the time being."
"They appeared very suddenly and landed on Iskandar without giving us any time to prepare. As for why they occupied Iskandar, we don't know. We only know that they were pursued to Iskandar by the external army that has now joined Gamiras, the Impact Army."
"It's also because after that ship took over Iskandar, we reacted and surrounded the attacking legion that appeared next, forcing them to become our external legion. Right now, they are sandwiched between our fleet and Iskandar."
