King of the Stars [Rebirth]

Black Gold Port is the largest free port near Nader Star and the most prosperous black market trading center on the border planet. As long as you land in this port, you can buy anything you want, whether it is legal or illegal.At the same time, this is also the most important arms trading center on the frontier. Due to Francie the "Anteater"'s fanatical hobby for weapon collection, a large number of soldiers and knights flocked here, expecting to obtain prestige or rare equipment here, and some even In order to compete for a place, he gave up his family fortune.Therefore, the annual weapon collection meeting has become a grand event that everyone flocks to.

But this year things are different.The tense situation that lasted for more than half a year finally broke out. The battle between the Lord of the Stars and the King of the Frontier was already very dangerous. Coupled with the intervention of the Federal Army, it became a mess.Now all the subordinate planets around Nader's main star have changed their owners, and there are deep space fleets watching over the periphery. No matter how big-hearted they are, they still have to weigh their own lives.Therefore, this year's weapons collection will be seriously shrunk, and thanks to Heijin Port being a well-known free port, many merchant ships are stranded due to the war, so the passenger flow in the port does not look so shabby.

But even so, there are still some poor soldiers who don’t even want their lives and hired knights who are ready to fish in troubled waters. For these desperadoes, the flames of war are both danger and opportunity. fanatics.

The registrar at the port glanced at the ultra-small cargo ship in front of him, and snorted coldly: "You also came to participate in the collection meeting? Did you prepare that small mech yourself?"

"That's right." The young man in plain aviation suit nodded.

There was no preparation for "hard work" and no deliberately flattering smiling face. The registrar frowned in disgust. This is really a "soldier" demeanor.And he can only make this kind of disgusting thing that imitates the shape, so he probably won't be able to squeeze out any oil or water.

Thinking of this, he curled his lips in disgust: "Fortunately, the parking fee for the spaceship is 5 yuan, and the mechs will be taken away, and the warehouse will wait for the primary election."

The young man's brows were slightly frowned: "Can't check the level of the mecha, can you directly participate in the meeting?"

The registrar sneered and said, "There are hundreds of mechas every year. Are you able to join the meeting if you want? Want to go directly to the meeting? Yes, as long as you can pay the money!"

If you can’t pay the money, just wait obediently in the warehouse, waiting in line, and when there are too many mechas, maybe the exhibition is over, and you can’t pass the inspection smoothly, you can only wait to see if the shit luck will fail On my own head.But now it's wartime, so there are still so many soldiers coming to register, it's just a gimmick to scam money.It is also because the undocumented soldiers have more or less savings, and they are soft persimmons that are easy to pinch, so these registrars wantonly squeezed them out.

Unexpectedly, the young man didn't mean to obediently pay, but asked, "Where is the mech stored? Is it safe?"

"Hey, are you still afraid that someone will steal your treasure? Don't worry, black gold also has rules. The mechs will be stored in the warehouse on the ground floor of the municipal center. After the primary election is over, they can be transported to the central exhibition hall."

Hearing this, the black-haired young man nodded: "Then put it in the warehouse."

Hearing this, the registrar's complexion immediately turned dark, and the crystal screen flicked: "Name! Mecha level!"

"Minar, B-stage minicomputer."

Grade B?The registrar raised his head: "You don't even have a military qualification certificate, and you can still make a B-level machine? Tsk, if you find out that the level does not match, you will be rejected forever."

After the ridicule, he seemed to have lost interest in the poor soldier, and waved his hand: "The spaceship is parked inside, don't get in the way. Next!"

After glancing at the sparse team behind, Yan Beichen returned to the cockpit to start the spaceship, moving towards the depths of the port.

Two full hours later, the tugboat carrying the mecha flew over, and the worker in charge of moving the mecha exaggeratedly clicked his tongue when he saw the small mech: "It's this model again! Damn, you can't be a bit imaginative." ?"

Yan Beichen followed the workers, and asked curiously, "Are there many mechas of this type this year?"

The worker glared at him angrily: "Many? That is, the earth leopards of your remote planets, who can't even keep up with the popularity! At most, it was last year, and at least half of them are small mechs. Hmph, the car of the Lord of the Stars is yours. Is it possible to imitate if you want to? The mecha you made is not easy to open and has low power, and you don’t need to imagine it. Is it because of a broken mecha that they dominate the border?! And you are such a broken thing, you are one of the stars! How can the Lord's car have a 5-meter walk, it can be as cruel as it wants, it's not like your 3-meter-long garbage!"

On the frontier planet, the Lord of the Stars who always drives a mech without showing his true face has long been rumored to be miraculous, and even his car is also in the limelight.However, most people tend to think that he is driving a small mech about 5 or 6 meters long. There are even legends that he combined his body with the mecha to produce that terrifying mechanical prosthetic body. No one would be so stupid It is said that the mysterious king stays on a mecha like a battle armor every day.

Facing the undisguised disdain of the workers, Yan Beichen pressed the corner of his mouth: "Then this one is not popular this year?"

"The ships of the Lord of the Stars have all sailed to Port of Varen. Who knows if the king of terror will set up his fleet and head straight for Nader Star. Let me say, you should hurry up and leave with your mecha, don't be fooled by that A fierce god is blocking the door. The imitation of other people's cars can be done so badly... Tsk tsk, that is a powerful figure who wiped out all the fleets of the king of the border, not everyone can offend..."

"Isn't it the federal army that wiped out Nader's fleet?" Yan Beichen asked rhetorically.

Now the worker was completely speechless, and rolled his eyes: "How many years has the federal army been fighting, has it achieved such a result? All right, hurry up and deliver the goods with me!"

Stop talking nonsense, the tugboat fixed the mecha firmly, and took Yan Beichen to the main city of Heijin Port.

After passing two checkpoints, and checking that the machine had no dangerous devices, the mecha passed the inspection smoothly and entered Heijin Port.This is a small port city transformed by a satellite, with a semi-artificial and semi-natural environment. The streets and buildings are mainly black. I don't know if it is to cater to the meaning of "black market" or "black gold", but the urban planning is quite standard and will not let People feel depressed, but it brings out a seductive mysterious atmosphere.

The Civic Center is located in the northwest corner of the city, next to the private residence of the owner of Black Gold Port.As an authentic weapon lover, Francie would vacate the huge municipal center every time the weapon collection meeting was held to make way for various mechs and new weapons.After hearing the news, crowds flocked to the exhibition, bringing amazing works, or spending a lot of money to get their favorite prey.

However, this year, the crowd was significantly reduced, and there was no waiting in line. The land vehicle drove into the municipal center smoothly, and after the last round of handover outside the warehouse, it drove into the ground with the small mecha.Outsiders were not allowed to visit the important warehouse, and Yan Beichen was thrown outside the door.

Seeing that "Nightmare" disappeared from sight, he wasn't worried at all.The Constellation is still flying covertly now, slowly approaching Heijin Port, and it is estimated that it will not enter the signal receiving area until tomorrow.Before this, no one could detect the hidden problems of "Nightmare", and after all the inspections were completed, the mecha would "wake up" in the empty warehouse, rush out of the cage, and invade the defense of Heijin Port system.At that time, it is time to completely recover Nader Star.

Looking across the heavily guarded municipal center, Yan Beichen picked up the small bag he was carrying and walked towards the reserved hotel.

That hotel is also located in the West End and has always been a favorite of soldiers and knights.The service is considerate, the confidentiality is good, the environment is comfortable but not particular about style, and the armor room and training room are all available. It is most suitable for those "professionals" who have a little spare money but no taste.

However, like the municipal center, there are not many residents in the hotel now, and it seems a bit deserted.Passing through two corridors, Yan Beichen opened the door and walked into his room, and casually threw a gadget on the bed.As if some signal was triggered, there was a buzzing sound from the thing, and the blue light enveloped the room, forming a isolation net.This is an enhanced version of the shielding network modified on a general-purpose shielding device, which can isolate all signal monitoring within a few minutes. It is a commonly used device in those shady transactions.

After confirming that the shielding net was unfolded, Yan Beichen took out a bracelet from his small bag and put it on his wrist.Gently swipe your thumb on it to open the communication connection.It is not a commonly used video mode. After a short wait, a voice came over: "The game is not going well, the old man is still hesitating."

"Are you going to throw the cards?" Yan Beichen asked back.

"Probably not. After finally catching the big ghost, he won't throw it away easily."

"Good. Have you been having fun lately?"

"Tomorrow noon, there will be an open-air dance party at No. 22, Shangzhong District. You can go and see it."

"Okay, waiting for your message." Just a few words, the communication ended.Yan Beichen put away the jammer and smiled.

As early as when Bryce wanted to attack the You Ying, Yan Beichen made Chu Nan disappear on purpose and hid in Heijin Port.It wasn't until the battle started that he quietly dispatched, contacted the "Anteater" Francie through the inside line, and negotiated the Blue Shadow Titanium deal with that greedy black market businessman.However, after several years of operation, how could it be possible for a black market tycoon like Francie not to know who this seemingly lazy middle-aged man is serving?

Therefore, Chu Nan was carefully appeased.Instead of snitching on her protector, Francie, like any cunning rabbit, began flirting with the Lord of the Stars' spokesperson, watching the situation unfold.If Star Nader wins, the broker will be politely sent away as a first-line backer.If the Federation Army wins by chance, this spokesperson will be tied to the flagship of the Deep Space Fleet as a bargaining chip to gain the trust of the nobles.And if the Astrals finally got the upper hand, there was a bare thigh waiting for him to cling to.

Everyone understands this little thought, so Lanying Titanium's negotiation has become a signal.Chu Nan's determination made Francie fearful, and the development of the battle made him even more uncertain.He's not the type to make an early bet before the final call is made.

Yan Beichen is not the kind of person who would hand over the initiative to others.In his layout, Chu Nan's "business" is just a cover, and the internal defense of Heijin Port is what he is most interested in.As long as he got a general topographical map, he could easily control the air defense of Heijin Port. Even if it was only a few minutes, he would deal the most fatal blow to the precarious balance.

However, these things obviously cannot be transmitted through a simple encrypted channel. There are too many tails behind Chu Nan. How to hand over the things to him smoothly is the most important issue.

Open-air dance?Thanks to that guy for being able to figure it out.Yan Beichen took off the bracelet on his wrist, threw it on the desk, and walked towards the balcony.Under his feet, there is a flickering light, like the starry sky at night, emitting a hazy halo.He has not stayed in such a free port for a long, long time. The airtight cabin, hidden ruins, and the vast and silent universe are the areas he is most familiar with.Between all the blinding and fighting to the death, something was missing, something that belonged to ordinary people.

Only when he stepped on such a place would he feel nostalgic.

Maybe, after this battle is over, he should take a breath?Faced with these useless thoughts that suddenly surged up, Yan Beichen shook his head with a broken smile, and walked back into the room.
