Xandar is the capital of the Nova Empire. Of course, although it is a Interstellar Empire, the weight of the Nova Empire is still not comparable to the so-called three empires.
And the relationship with these three empires...
In line with most cosmic forces, Nova Empire maintains a trade relationship with the Skrull Empire, a war relationship with the Kree Empire, and has no relationship with the Shi'ar Empire.
Among them, the most troublesome thing for them is the war relationship with the Kree Empire.
As a cosmic empire, Nova Empire's strength should not be underestimated. It has an extremely powerful Nova Corps in its hands. And relying on this army, Nova Empire has blocked Kree Empire's attacks again and again, but this has also created a gap between the two countries.
In every past year, Nova Empire and Kree Empire have been caught in endless wars, but this situation has changed a little this year.
Not long ago, the Supreme Commander Nova Empire and the Supreme Commander Kree Empire signed a peace agreement, agreeing that no war would break out between the two countries.
But Nova Empire restrains its own people very well, but Kree Empire is different.
Even though a peace agreement had been signed, the famous Ronan among the Kree Empire still led his fleet to wreak havoc on the Nova Empire's side, destroying countless Nova bases.
After Nova Prime learned about this incident, he immediately told Commander Kree about it, hoping that he could restrain his subordinates.
But Kree Supreme had an indifferent expression and rejected their proposal, saying that Ronan simply didn't listen to his orders and let them handle it themselves.
Seeing the ball being kicked back, Nova Prime also had a headache. Ronan's military command ability and combat ability are extremely strong. He was originally their number one enemy Nova Empire. It wouldn't be a bad thing if they could really kill him, but they don't have this ability!
Kree Empire has an extremely powerful 'Full-Spectrum Projection Technology'. Relying on this technology, Kree can perform long-distance space jumps without Stargate.
This makes their large ships extremely flexible and can fight the autumn wind everywhere. In comparison, the ships of other forces are much bulkier.
This also leads to the fact that in the war with the Kree Empire, most forces can only be beaten blindly and cannot make an effective counterattack.
The same is true for the Nova Empire. There is no way to destroy Ronan's fleet, and Nova Prime also has a very headache. After arguing with Kree Supreme on a daily basis to no avail, Nova Prime sat back in his position.
"Anything new recently?"
When the assistant on the side saw that the leadership work was over, he immediately came up.
"It's the same thing. Ronan destroyed several outposts not long ago, and there was a little commotion on Xandar. Oh, by the way, last night, Nova Corps received an application. The other party claimed to be the lord of the earth and wanted to communicate with us."
"Earth? Is it the planet under Asgard?"
Nova Prime sat on his chair and asked doubtfully.
"Yes, that's it. We have some information about this person. Not long ago, the person in charge of the caravan who returned from Asgard also learned from Asgard's eldest prince Thor that the other party is a strong man who is not weaker than the god king Odin."
"A man who is not weaker than Odin God King?" Nova Prime was a little concerned now.
Odin's strength is obvious to all. Back then, there was a cosmic empire that was not long-sighted and wanted to have a fight with Odin, but Odin blew up the capital of that empire. From then on, Odin became famous in one battle, and no one dared to ignore him.
In the face of such a record, it is no exaggeration to say that even Kree, whose mind is full of war, would not dare to provoke Odin.
As for this earth lord, the outside world has said that he is so powerful. No matter how you put it, he will not be a simple character, and he must be treated carefully.
"Is this true?"
"Well, this is just what the eldest prince Asgard said when he was drunk. The credibility is not high. But he is the prince of Asgard. We don't dare to underestimate him. According to the highest etiquette, we invited him to stay in our best room."
Listening to the report from his subordinates, Nova Prime nodded, "That's right. Is there anything else to do next? If nothing else, just arrange a meeting for us."
In the room Nova Corps prepared for himself, Lu Qi was enjoying the beautiful scenery of Xandar outside while tasting the delicious fruits prepared by the host.
Just aside, there was a young lady introducing some beautiful scenic spots on Xandar to herself.
After talking for a long time, I found that Lu Qi paid less attention to these scenery, but he ate a few plates of fruits and other things, which made the tour guide a little puzzled.
This kind of behavior does not look like the existence of some kind of god king, but more like a liar who cheats people with food and drink.
But she didn't say it so stupidly. Although the other party was a bit out of place in a shabby spaceship, the other party also physically traveled across the universe and easily flew to her own reception spacecraft.
Just this one move is already an extremely powerful performance.
After receiving the news that Nova Prime agreed to meet Lu Qi, the tour guide breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and left, leaving Lu Qi in charge of several other people.
Under the leadership of these people, Lu Qi also successfully met Nova Prime and Nova's senior executives.
"Lu Qi, Your Excellency, I have long admired your name."
As soon as they met, Nova Prime was the first to say welcome, and the senior management on the side also showed expressions of honor.
"Your Excellency Lu Qi's heroic act of defeating Celestials has been spread throughout the universe for a long time."
"That's right, although we didn't see it with our own eyes, with the testimony of Prince Asgard, it can't be false!"
Listening to these people's compliments, Lu Qi also showed an embarrassed expression and said modestly, "It's not as outrageous as the rumors say. I just defeated a few Celestials's soldiers. You can all do it."
His face looked like this, but deep down he didn't know how he beat Thor again, which made Thor, who was far away in Asgard and was imprisoned by his brother in the same cell where he was originally imprisoned, tremble several times.
Warriors Three, who was also sitting in the cell, looked at Thor like this, as if you must be cold because you drank too little wine. He didn't give Thor a chance to refute, and handed him a few more glasses of wine.
Not to mention the drunk Thor, the meeting with Lu Qi went smoothly. After successfully resolving the misunderstanding (in my own opinion), Nova also had someone move a chair to Lu Qi, and the two slowly started chatting.
"So, Mr. Lu Qi, is your main purpose of coming here to buy some technology from the Nova Empire and go back to cultivate your own planet?"
"Yes, this is the main purpose, but not long ago, I discovered something here that needs to be dealt with."
"What's going on?" Nova Prime heard this and started thinking about it in his heart.
Lu Qi is the first time here. Is there anything you want to tell him?
"Not long ago, one of my subordinates was accidentally dropped on a certain planet in the starry sky. But generally speaking, they have extremely strong abilities, and there is no need to worry about whether they can survive in the universe. But, my subordinate discovered an Earthling in the universe."
"Earthlings?" Nova Prime still didn't understand what this had to do with him, "But according to what you just said, doesn't the Earth not yet have the ability to travel long distances?"
"That's right." Lu Qi showed a heavy expression, "The earth does not have the ability to travel long distances in the starry sky, but the identity of that earthling cannot be faked. Based on the contacts of my subordinates, I also know that the other person was abducted into the universe by a group of aliens more than ten years ago."
"Kidnapping your people!" Nova Prime showed an angry expression, "I didn't expect anyone would dare to kidnap your people. Do we need Nova Corps to take action to wipe out those aliens?"
"That's not the case. According to my information, those Ravagers were entrusted by others and traveled across most of the universe just to kidnap that person. The mastermind behind the scenes originally wanted to do something bad to him. At the critical moment, it was those Ravagers who suddenly woke up and saved the lives of my people."
"Is that so..." Nova Prime was silent for a while, "It's great to know your mistakes and correct them. But, does this matter have anything to do with us?"
You don't have the characteristic of being able to tell stories to anyone, do you?
"Of course it has something to do with you!" Lu Qi said loudly, "I asked my men to bring him here to join me, but not long ago he was captured by you and got into that Kyln Prison."
Nova Prime frowned, Kyln Prison, that is Nova Empire a prison with the highest defense level. To be imprisoned there, what on earth did that earthling do?
Asking Lu Qi to wait here, Nova Prime immediately contacted his subordinates and retrieved Star-Lord's information.
Looking at the other party's crime, Nova Prime showed an expression like an old man's subway cell phone, "Can this crime also lead to a crime?"
Facing the assistant on the side, Nova Prime asked in a low voice, why didn't she know that her own Kyln Prison was so shabby that such a little thief was locked up inside.
The assistant hurriedly went outside to inquire, and came back quickly after a while. "According to reports from relevant personnel, although the other party is just a small thief, his companions have shown a high level of threat and were able to escape from being surrounded by dozens of drones. No trace of the other party has been found yet."
"It is because his companion was too threatening that this person was given an aggravated crime and was sent to Kyln Prison."
Nova Prime nodded, and when he turned around, he saw Lu Qi looking thoughtful.
By the way, the other party is a strong man who is not weak. With such a distance, whatever they said just now must be clearly heard by the other party.
And since that's the case, there's no need for her to think about how to explain it.
"Sir Lu Qi, now do you know why your people were arrested by us?"
Lu Qi nodded, and he just said that in the original plot, a Gamora sneaked in among them, which escalated the fight between them to a higher level, so they were imprisoned in Kyln Prison.
But this time Gamora was watched closely by Thanos and couldn't come over at all. How could they still be sent to Kyln Prison. It turned out to be Shadow Ninjas's fault. I didn't expect that Shadow Ninjas, who simply left the scene, could scare these people so fiercely, and the plot returned to its original point.
In fact, this is not to blame Nova Prime and the others. After all, Shadow Ninjas's ability to leave surrounded by so many drones means that Shadow Ninjas's stealth ability is extremely strong and can easily avoid their exploration methods.
If such a being appears on his own capital star, it's okay if he doesn't directly suspect that Shadow Ninjas will assassinate Nova Prime.
Under the gaze of Nova Prime, Lu Qi pondered for a while and continued, "I believe this earthling has good intentions. Looking at the surveillance video, it is shown that the other party caused trouble for him first, which led to this fight."
Nova Prime agreed with Lu Qi's statement, but reminded, "It also has something to do with the elusive swordsman."
"Oh, um, don't worry about that, my men are here."
"Your men?"
Nova Prime brought up the picture of Shadow Ninjas, "Looking at this person's physical characteristics, he doesn't look like a person from Earth."
"Well, he is indeed not a human, but he is really my subordinate. Let me prove it briefly."
Lu Qi clapped his hands, and countless Shadow Ninjas suddenly appeared in the hall. The sudden appearance shocked the Nova Guardss, and they immediately raised their weapons and pointed them at these ninjas.
Nova Prime also took a step back nervously, but when he saw that Shadow Ninjas did not make any other drastic moves, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, I believe that being is one of your men, but could you please ask them to get out as soon as possible?"
Lu Qi waved his hand, and all Shadow Ninjas disappeared into the shadows of the hall.
What I said was to go out, not let them settle here directly!
Nova Prime was very angry, but she didn't know how many Shadow Ninjas existed in this place at the moment, and she didn't dare to speak directly about it. She could only pinch her neck and look at Lu Qi and what else she wanted to say.
"Don't be nervous. They are not bad people. They are very obedient. If I don't say anything, they will never kill anyone!" Lu Qi comforted Nova Prime, but what he said made her even more nervous.
Then they are really obedient!
Nova Prime no longer thought about what Lu Qi said just now, and forced herself to calm down. She continued to say to Lu Qi, "Okay, we understand the need for kissing. Since the person you kissed was mistakenly arrested, please wait a moment and I will release the person you kissed from Klin immediately~"
Seeing Tangtang Nova Prime being frightened by what he did and turned into a certain treasure customer service, Lu Qi couldn't help laughing. He just thought that he didn't want to talk nonsense to these people. After all, his story was a bit fake and he didn't dare to let them think too much.
At Nova Prime's signal, the assistant on the side quickly contacted the person in charge of Kyln Prison.
But after some exchanges, the assistant's face became a little frightened.
"Supreme, Your Excellency Lu Qi, you just received bad news that Kyln Prison was robbed by Ronan!"
"What? Where are my people?" Lu Qi stood up and asked anxiously.
Seeing Lu Qi so nervous, Nova Prime and all the senior officials became anxious.
Their lives are in Lu Qi's hands. If Lu Qi is not satisfied and kills them directly, wouldn't it be a big loss?
The little assistant who was being watched by everyone couldn't stop trembling and said slowly, "Everyone in Kyln Prison was killed by Ronan!"
""What!" In the eyes of all the senior executives, Lu Qi looked very angry, and a momentum was pressed on all Xandarians in the hall.
"My people had an accident on your territory. If you don't give me an explanation, then don't blame me for killing Xandar!"
"But, Sir Lu Qi, your people were killed by Ronan!"
Nova Prime withstood the pressure and said tremblingly to Lu Qi. Lu Qi looked at him coldly, "But if it weren't for you, I would have taken him away from here now. How about Ronan's role?"
"I originally just asked him to come here and wait for me, but you took him to prison because he was attacked, aggravated his crime, and let him enter your most advanced Kyln Prison. This led to him being involved in your war with Ronan, right?"
"But, does this also have something to do with your men?" If he hadn't acted so scary, they wouldn't have arrested Star-Lord in Klin, and would still be searching the entire capital.
"Oh, the fault was placed on my subordinate again? I asked him to do his best to protect my people, and he did so. Is he at fault? Or is it my fault who gave this order?"
Lu Qi's figure looked taller and taller in the eyes of these Xandarians, and every word he spoke brought great pressure to them.
"What else do you want to say?"
"No, we have nothing to say. It's all our fault and we will make amends!"
Nova Prime finally couldn't withstand the pressure and said in a low voice to Lu Qi.
This is right.
Lu Qi nodded, "Since you are also willing to take responsibility for it, then this matter is not non-negotiable."
The chair behind him was taken away by Shadow Ninjas, Dark Throne appeared behind him, and Lu Qi sat on it, "Now, let's have a good talk."
