Chapter 2484 Scrape off a layer of skin
For a week, Xiao Ran and Saki Maski seemed to have completely disappeared. No one could contact them. However, their disappearance did not cause much disturbance. First of all, Xiao Ran had given instructions to Corgi and before leaving. Selucius, even if Lelouch didn't know about it, after asking Corgi, Selucius and the two people knew this. Based on the confirmation of Corgi and Lelouch, naturally Lelouch would not think that Xiao Ran would never come back.
And the world will not stop functioning just because Xiao Ran is gone for a week. Xiao Ran's influence on the world has not yet reached this level, and the whole world cannot be stagnant without anyone.
Without Xiao Ran, two skilled veterans, Corgi and Selucius, with two Participant Legion, were able to completely suppress European Federation, which had no opponent. Just like what was arranged before, they suppressed in a way that scares the monkeys. All restless elements in European Federation, including those forces that are ready to break away from European Federation and unite independently again when the situation is bad, Crimson Knights and Roaring Lion Legion will descend upon them and completely suppress them with powerful armed forces once signs appear.
On the third day after Xiao Ran left, the seriously mentally ill Ron Legion Leader finally woke up. When Ron opened his eyes, he didn't know where he was at the first time, nor did he know how many days had passed since the last time he was awake. He just felt dizzy and in a trance. He couldn't figure out the current situation for a while, and then he was confused for three consecutive times.
who I am? Where am I? What am I doing?
It wasn't until several minutes passed that his memory slowly recovered, and he recalled who he was and what happened just a moment ago. After being enveloped by the endless beam of light, he should have been teleported back by Ejection Device, but the ceiling in front of him was obviously not the escape place he was bound to, and the question came back, where am I?
"Yo, wake up."
Ron suddenly heard a voice next to him. He turned his head stiffly and saw Corgi with his legs crossed sitting next to a separate chair and small table, drinking tea. For a sudden Ron suddenly felt that his head hurt even more. His brain really hurt. He vaguely understood his situation and felt a chill in his heart. Although he had a headache, he gradually woke up.
While drinking tea, Corgi looked at Ron slowly and said, "It seems that you have figured it out. My Ron Legion Leader, is there anything you want to say now?"
Ron glanced at Corgi and said nothing, then looked at the ceiling and remained silent. His thoughts were very confused now. He was disappointed, unwilling, and regretful. All kinds of emotions filled him. Why did it become like this? What happened in the first place? He didn't understand why. The combined power of the two Participant Legion, coupled with the preparation of the three Time Bomb, would lead to this result in the end. He didn't understand anything, only that he had failed, a complete failure, and everything was lost.
All of a sudden, Ron thought of Jiuchang who resolutely quit. He regretted so much why he had not considered Jiuchang's idea of quitting this mission, but he also hated it. Hate, hate Corgi, hate Selucius, hate the Pendragon that made all his efforts useless, hate Jiuchang, hate Selucius even more, these two traitors who betrayed him.
Corgi laughed when he looked at Ron, and did not hide his mockery of Ron: "Yo yo yo, isn't the famous Ron Legion Leader the benevolent and invincible? Why has it become like this now? Did you think about it when you forced others to finish the mission? To this day, hahaha, are you giving up on yourself and ready to give up your life? Tell me, how are you going to buy your own life? Apart from you, I have also captured a lot of people in your legion. Are you going to let them all die or buy them all back? It's hard for me to understand what you mean if you are so silent. In that case, I will do it according to my own wishes."
"Tsk tsk tsk, the imprisoned benevolent invincible Ron, I think I took a picture of your current appearance so that other people can see what we Ron Legion Leader look like now."
Corgi's tone was gloating and quite sarcastic, and he also felt a little arrogant, as if he had taken control of the overall situation and became the ultimate BOSS. Being a BOSS was not good, but this feeling was extremely wonderful.
Ron slowly tilted his head and looked at Corgi with a still heart, no, a dead heart. "I will become like this today, but maybe you will be the one who becomes like this tomorrow."
"Well." Corgi raised a finger and shook his head gently. "NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, I will not become like you, and I will never become like you. I have heard such a saying, it is important for a person to know himself. I am that special kind As a Self-Awareness person, I know what I can do and what I can do. I dare to bully the weak but never dare to challenge the strong, let alone put myself in the same position as the strong. I will accept others as strong. I can be convinced and willing to stick to them."
"Yes, I just have no backbone. What can backbone be used for? Can it make me stronger and go further? It's useless. They are all vain. Those are useless things. What I want is to be aware of current affairs. What I want is not to have any backbone. If you are shameless, what you need is to be able to observe the situation, regard the bottom line of the strong as your own bottom line, regard the persistence of the strong as your own persistence, regard the needs of the strong as your own needs, ha ha ha, I don't know the strength behind you. I am like this in front of you, but I am like this. There is nothing I cannot admit, but the most important thing is luck. My luck is better than yours. Only shameless people have better luck. So I won this time. To you, I am a stronger person than you, so I am stronger than you. If the situation is stronger than you, you must admit it. If you don't accept it, you will die, and those who are caught by you will also die. Think about it yourself."
"I won't tell you anything else, such as dreams and the future. I don't pay attention to those. Just tell me how much Merit Points you are willing to spend and how much you are willing to give to leave this world. Don't think about giving up the mission. It is useless. Now that you are at war, you have become a prisoner. It is useless to withdraw from the mission under special conditions. Or we will just I'll kill you once and for all, kill all the remaining people, and completely destroy your legion. Even if all the things in your hands can't become ours, it won't matter. Whether you live or die in this mission will not affect us in getting what we want from you, which is more or less a problem. I don't care, hey, but I don't know if you care about your own life."
Ron was so angry, super angry, very angry, so angry that he couldn't refute every word Corgi said. He could only grit his teeth, but when he bit his teeth, he felt his head hurt. Ron For a moment, he really wanted to die, but it was not easy to do that.
Ron knows the situation of the legion now without asking anything. It is basically completely scrapped. It will really take a long time to develop back to its original state. And they have completely become losers in this mission. They are probably more failed than the legions that have withdrawn before. This does not include the loss of personnel and machines, and the resources used in this mission. The loss of the source is just a matter of the evaluation weight because the loss is too great. Because this time the force was suppressed and all the territory was lost, a zero score should not be a big deal. If you want to turn around, you can make a comeback. But because of your own strength and the strength of the remaining personnel, plus the help of the supporters behind you, you can develop again, and he still has reputation, but this loss is too great.
There is still hope for people to live. Although Ron wants to die, he will not take the initiative to die. His eyes are red and his teeth are not daring to bite. He said bitterly, "What do you want!"
Corgi blinked. "It's not what I want, it's what you are willing to give. Besides, I don't even know what you have, so how do I know what you want."
Ron took a deep breath and felt burning pain everywhere. "Twenty million."
"Too little." Corgi shook his head without hesitation. Ron lowered his voice and said angrily, "Twenty million is still less!"
"Of course it's less, twenty million is a lot?" Corgi waved his hands and said indifferently, but in his heart it was completely different from what he said. Twenty million is a lot. Even Crimson Knights doesn't have as many Merit Points as twenty million now. Ron is indeed in stock, so he still wants to scrape some more things off Ron.
The total assets of the Ron legion are not too small, but compared to the Burning Legion, they can only be regarded as poor. The total number of all Merit Points is less than 40 million. Compared with most legions, it is definitely rich. These more than 40 million are saved by Ron frugally, and the big boss behind him will always give him other things. With the help of some technical resources, coupled with the fact that the mission has been quite smooth and the harvest has been quite a lot, the total Merit Points that the entire legion can draw out is almost less than 40 million, which is already a lot. Ron is willing to take out half of it at once, which is a sign of sincerity, and with so many Merit Points, he cannot make the decision alone.
Among them, the assets that really belong to the legion are estimated to be only more than 10 million, and 15 million will be handed over to the big boss after the mission. It is the fryer who sells all the unnecessary things obtained in the mission, including skills, props, machines, etc., so that there will be so many Merit Points, although the big boss will need it again. You won't be stingy when you give them Merit Points support, but the annual tribute and support are two different things. You can't lack any of what you should give. If you enjoy the support, you must give something in return. Otherwise, why should others support you? The remaining part is each participant's own Merit Points part.
Fortunately, you don't have to give back 15 million for every mission. It's a lot to pay 15 million for a round of missions. Sometimes you can't pay that much, and the support and help given by the big guys later are definitely worth the price, which is equivalent to service fees, protection fees, management fees and insurance fees.
But in terms of legion assets, it is estimated to be higher than 40 million Merit Points. However, the loss due to the failure of this mission is so huge. Let's not mention those assets. These are accumulated from countless missions. It is already a stretch to spend 20 million plus so many losses this time.
But 40 million is just too much. If the mission didn't fail, it would be fine. Is it a joke to have a high-level machine worth 1 million? Is the consumption of seed members after each mission a joke? The strength of a legion depends on the number and level of strong men in the legion. Can we be strict in this aspect if we want to develop the legion? Mecha upgrade transformation, resource purchase and supplementation do not require Merit Points consumption? You will make a lot of money after each mission, but you will also consume a lot of money. So many Merit Points must have been saved for a long time.
The legions above are eating their legions, and their legions will also eat other legions. Just like this mission was originally supposed to be a melee between legions that ate the resources of other legions, but they turned out to be the ones being eaten. As the saying goes, you can't walk long by the river without getting your feet wet. This time, their feet were not only wet, but they were bitten hard by a crocodile.
After leaving the mission this time and facing the almost scrapped legion, Merit Points had to increase investment in redevelopment. The legion would be completely wiped out in one fell swoop, and even the protection fees handed over could only be withheld.
Ron I'm so angry. Does Corgi, this idiot, know how much twenty million is? When I see Corgi, I feel so angry. If it weren't for the current situation and I can't help it, Ron really wants to chew Corgi.
"I still have to bear the loss of the mission! You have won this mission, and the rewards you have received are definitely quite a lot. It is definitely more than 10 million in profits. If you add it all up, what else can you be dissatisfied with?"
"It adds up to a lot, and that's not what we deserve." Corgi looked innocent, saying that it had nothing to do with him, and of course it had nothing to do with Ron.
Ron didn't want to talk to Corgi anymore and asked directly, "What do you want!"
"It needs to be something interesting and valuable, such as technology."
Ron closed his eyes and gritted his teeth. "No."
Corgi didn't believe it. "Impossible, the benevolent Ron Legion Leader which mission is not left to the end, how could there be no technology, machine technology, Weapon Technology, battleship technology, special technology, any technology is good, or rare Bloodline Serum, Skill Book, special parts and props, etc., just give me some, then I will agree to your 20 million, otherwise, forget it, I will kill you in the end and it depends on luck. Anyway, it is quite cost-effective for us to choose a trophy in the end, and we choose first anyway."
Ron simply feels that the idiot in front of him is a bastard, a bastard, you have such a negotiation, you just threaten at every turn, what the hell do you want to do!
However, Ron also knew that the other party was determined to defeat him, so he took a deep breath and gave himself the final condition. "Twenty-five million, technology will be weighted according to the score, and the loot will be chosen by you, including Bloodline Serum, special parts and other rare props. However, I have the right to refuse to hand over the items you selected and exchange them for other items of equal value. The last one is that your people withdraw and leave me one-third of the European Federation territory."
Corgi grinned. "Deal."
