A Chime Below the Throne [Interstellar]

As a professional mercenary veteran, Homan decisively went out and turned right for five star coins to apply for a permit.

Even choosing a bodyguard is so flimsy and rookie, it is not difficult to see that he is a guide who has a prominent background and rarely travels in the rivers and lakes.

As it turned out, his speculation was correct.

When Homan walked into the most expensive hotel in Quanhong, the magnificent interior decoration did not fascinate his eyes, but the petite boy sitting on the sofa with his spiritual body surprised him.

Homan had already thought of the fact that the customer is the guide.But, I didn't expect this guide to be someone I knew!

Dandy Harbor!

What is he doing on this fringe planet?

All right.What he came to do has nothing to do with Homan.

Homan frowned, and pressed the nano-simulation mask on his face, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

Compared with the radiant look before, the blond boy looked a little depressed.

Today's Dandy has obviously lost his outgoing and lively personality. I don't know if it's because he is taller, or because he has a bad life. The round lines of his face are straightened, and he looks a little thinner at a glance.People who live by freshness will inevitably appear a little shriveled if they lose their essence.

In fact, although Dandy's calculation last time somewhat made Homan look down on him, if it happened before, he would definitely turn his face and leave.But now, after going through ups and downs, Homan doesn't take him so seriously.

Compared with the disgust in my heart, it is more curious.

What did Lord Harper send Dandy to saffron for?

The servant next to Dandy saw Homan, lowered his head and said something slowly to his master.

Homan immediately denied the previous conclusion.

No, certainly not Marquis Harper's decision.Judging from the situation, it is likely that Dandy ran away from home by himself, right?

Before the mocking movie in Homan's mind finished, the servant next to Dandy said, "Are you the mercenary who took over the mission?"

Homan nodded irresistibly, and turned to look at Dandy.Dandy didn't recognize Homan at all, and he didn't seem to want to talk to him at all. He was drinking tea and hugging his spiritual white flying squirrel, looking a little anxious.

The servant looked at Homan vigilantly, looked him up and down, and looked suspicious: "You can really beat a b-level sentinel? I think your physique is not as good as mine..."

Homan grinned, and put a series of certificates on the table in a majestic manner, showing his white teeth in a serious manner: "Of course. I am the re-election of the wit cup one-on-one singles competition in Shihezi Street, Saffron Star champion."

The servant froze for a moment, obviously frightened by Homan's loud tone.He carefully obtained the certificates and looked at them one by one.

It's so cool, buddy!

Young master Dandy is not a fool on the road, why do you have the same style of painting as him!If there is a master, there must be a servant?

The servant sorted out the certificates very carefully, and nodded in satisfaction: "Okay. It's you. Anyway, I heard that your safari mercenaries are still very good. Since we cooperate, we will employ them without doubt."

Homan: "..." My buddy really believes that he is of a good standard just by looking at these few pieces of paper!Do you think that you were so stupid when you came out of the inner galaxy?

"To tell you the truth, the young master escaped from marriage at home. The bodyguards brought in two days ago were accidentally arrested by the family. We fled the pursuers and ran here. The young master has important matters here. There are things to do, so they will stay in the saffron for months or weeks, and you will be required to protect them as a bodyguard during this period."

Run away?No wonder Dandy was feeling restless.

Homan clicked his tongue, he was really unlucky to be a guide.If he stayed in the inner galaxy, the result must be similar to Dandy.

But judging from Dandy's experience of courting him, doesn't he reject the combination with the sentinel?What kind of marriage do you want to escape?

"Yes, how do we count our money?"

Dandy walked out of the suite at this moment, without even a nod to Homan.

Homan didn't mind, it was better to turn a blind eye than to recognize who he was.

The servant was evasive and didn't even mention that Dandy was a guide.Homan was also happy to pretend not to know, waiting for the servant to explain the conditions.Immediately, he decided to do this job at the risk of being investigated.

The remuneration is very generous, and the employer is quite easy to slaughter!It's simply that the local rich man is here to spread his wealth!

When he was in Silver Rose, Homan didn't remember that the Haber family was so rich.After the prince turned into silk, he picked up a nobleman's golden thigh and wanted to hug it.

Two days later, Homan again praised his wise decision.

This job is so idle that there is nothing to do.Originally, it was just holding the nutrient solution in its mouth, and just staying with the customers.

And the customer Dandy didn't have the original lively personality for some reason, but a bit like the original Homan, who never went out to socialize and stayed at home for two days.

Maybe it is because there are no nobles in the backwaters of Saffron?So lazy to socialize?

So what did he flee to the saffron?

Dandy is a smart man, and the escape route was definitely planned in advance.But for the past few days, Dandy only lives in the hotel suite, which means he has no intention of settling down in Saffron.

I don't plan to stay for a long time, but I stay in the hotel every day, but say that I have something to do in Saffron. Does this seem to be something to do?

Homan, who had lunch, was about to go to the room to continue making sculptures. Before he opened the door, he heard the voice of the servant Aben and Dandy arguing inside.

Suspicion arose for a moment, and Homan shamelessly didn't push the door open, and opened a gap to put his ear on it.

"Master, let's go back! There's nothing wrong with marrying Anthony, and it's not much worse than the third prince..."

Dandy sneered: "Not much difference? It's a galaxy away. The third prince must be the crown prince, and he is the most promising prince to inherit the throne. If I can be his guide, it can be a countess of Capri who can Comparable?!"

Homan's heart was about to jump out of his mouth.

The third prince?What does it have to do with Dandy staying in Safran and the third prince!Isn't that fellow Ludwig in the Central Capital?Fergus from the military said he would not come.

Dandy is really better than blue, and he is much better at studying than the shrewd old Haber.Homan lamented that when he set his goal as himself, he aimed at the back position.Now Dandy probably heard some gossip, so he ran over to get in touch with the third prince.

However, he did not expect that the third prince would stay in the capital because of the emperor's obstruction.

Compared with Dandy's source, Homan obviously believed in Fergus, who was directly under the army.

"Master! How can it be the same? Earl Capri is also an honest and kind person. The appearance of the third prince is not such a tough nut to crack because it is rumored that the Central King has taken away so many guides. Why do you bother..." However, no matter how hard-hearted the loyal servant Aben is, the master Dandy just doesn't appreciate it, and puts on a stinky face of "I've made up my mind".

Ah Ben's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something: "What's more, didn't you hear what the master said! The rebels are not vegetarians, even if they can make the third prince treat them differently, the swords and guns are not long. Eyes! Young master, you are a guide, and you are the object of support wherever you go, so why push yourself to a dead end..."

"What do you know! It's because of this critical juncture that you should come here! The third prince has been troubled by mania for so long, and he will be stimulated to some extent when he fights at the border. With me sending charcoal in the snow, it is a time of crisis! Take advantage of the trend Combination is not a problem!"

Speaking of this, Dandy seemed to realize that he was too emotional, and lowered his voice.No matter how carefully Homan listened, he couldn't hear clearly.

Cursing his own attributes as a guide more than once, Homan gritted his teeth and stood up.

Rebels!

So many troops gathered on Eucalyptus, because there were insiders saying that the rebels were coming?

Fergus didn't tell him.Is it because the army kept silent, or did I not know it at all?

He returned to his room and quickly dialed Fergus's video call with his optical brain.

The voice rang twice, and the other party was connected.

Homan was a little surprised. An elite army with strict discipline like Iris spends most of its time in training.And Fergus was able to answer the phone in broad daylight, obviously it was impossible without a half-job.

When Fergus saw Homan, a smile instantly filled his face, and Samoyed rushed up the video, "Little Sa, come down for me!"

"Horman! Long time no see, may I buy you coffee?" Fergus, who was overly enthusiastic, grinned.

Homan: "I want to confirm one thing with you. You said that the third prince will not come to Saffron, is it confirmed news?"

Fergus became serious when he heard this, looked up and recalled: "It should be true. At least there is no news from above. The commander-in-chief of the Iris team has been appointed, and the entire army is not short of people. According to According to the usual practice, His Royal Highness will not be parachuted down now."

Homan breathed a sigh of relief.I don't know where Dandy got the information for granted, but Fergus is quite reliable.

"What's the matter? Why are you asking this?" Fergus doubted, "There are rumors in the capital that you and His Royal Highness Ludwig..."

"Not really." Homan replied so quickly that even he was taken aback.

Fergus froze for a moment, but was not happy about Homan's denial.A reflexively conditioned answer is more like a cover-up than a truth-seeking one.

A little embarrassed, Homan raised the most important question: "Also. If your army has not banned this question, I would like to ask, why so many troops have been dispatched?"

In fact, this question has been held in Homan's heart from the very beginning, but because of his identity, he has not asked it.

Fergus opened his eyes wide and burst out laughing.Being willing to honestly ask the question in your heart is the first step in trusting him and relying on him: "This is indeed an army secret."

"However, if it's you. I can tell you. Only, you have to buy me a cup of coffee in return."

Homan lowered his eyelashes: "Forget it. Since it's a secret, I won't ask."

"Don't! Let me tell you! It's not a big secret. It's a swarm of insects and beasts once every few hundred years. However, the scale of this season will be relatively small. Central experts have detected that the breakthrough is here. It’s on the sidelines. So we dispatched the nearby army, and the central army will make peace with eucalyptus, saffron and other nearby planets.”

Insect tide?Or rebels?

Both sides insist on their own words.

Homan frowned, confused, and didn't know where to believe.After thinking about it for a while, he faintly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"A small-scale swarm of insects and beasts will mobilize so many troops?"

Fergus laughed and said: "How do I know, the scale is also predicted by the scientific research institute, and they have the final say. This is the first time I participated in the resistance against the swarm of insects and beasts. Before that, it was all small-scale encirclement and suppression."

Homan stopped talking, his expression changed.

Fergus was in a great mood because Homan took the initiative to send a message: "I was still waiting for you to ask me who the conductor is! I didn't expect you to drag the topic here."

Homan raised his eyebrows: "Who?"

"You don't even know me!" Fergus stuck out his tongue playfully, "But I'm the second-in-command! How about it? You don't regret letting me enter Iris through the back door, do you? This will give you confidence!"

"Hey! How do you talk? What do you mean by fighting for me?" Homan stared.
