Chapter 1402: Many Hopes
The empire's research on Tiangou Mi Mansion has never been interrupted, but the threshold for entry is extremely high.
The research is led by the military, and even members of the Divine Literature Society must undergo strict review before they can participate in some research.
In addition to the authorization from the military, there is only one way to enter the Mysterious Mansion, and that is the student trials in major colleges and universities.
When the trials first began, students were not even allowed to bring bodyguards.
It's just that the level of danger in Mi Mansion is a bit higher, and the student casualty rate remains high, so it was only later that such an opening was made.
This time the military invited the Digital Phantom, which was also a very rare gesture of goodwill.
However, in the opinion of the Fourth Master, the military probably saw that the experimental platform had been staying at Tianfeng and was a little confused about its intentions.
As a declining livable star, Tianfeng really has nothing else to offer except Tiangou Mi Mansion.
So this was a show of goodwill, but it should also be a test, but the military couldn't come forward directly, so they asked Buckingham to relay it.
Thinking of this, Si Dangjia said that the main force of the team is currently not in Tianfeng and has no plans to enter Mifu in the short term.
Buckingham heard that the main force was not here, so he had no choice but to leave first.
However, he and Nelson were not in a hurry to leave, but settled near the military area.
More than a month later, Qu Jianlei and others returned. In order to maintain confidentiality, they were originally teleported back to the experimental platform.
After hearing about the military's invitation, they brought the battalion-level ship back.
After Buckingham and Nelson heard the news, they came to see him again.
This time, it was Qu Jianlei who came to receive them.
Regarding the invitation from the military, he said that his interest in Mi Mansion mainly lies in the external structure.
As for the internal situation of Mi Mansion, Qu Jianlei thought it was a bit sensitive and wanted to know what the military's purpose was.
His question was straightforward enough, and Buckingham guessed a little bit of the inside story - after all, the experimental platform had stayed here for too long.
Therefore, he said that he would report it to the military and did not want to get involved in this topic.
Seriously, he felt that the supreme being opposite him felt familiar.
Putting aside the known Duo Gan, Jing Yuexin and a certain female supreme being, this should be the fourth supreme being of the Digital Phantom.
This person's aura is deeper, but Buckingham does feel a little inexplicably familiar.
"My lord, have we met before?"
Qu Jianlei smiled when he heard it, "Why should we meet before? At least we have met each other now."
Seeing that he was speaking vaguely, Buckingham could only ask again, "Lord Jing Yuexin... I haven't seen you for a long time."
"She is in seclusion," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "It's not appropriate to disturb her."
Buckingham didn't dare to ask more questions, but he was inevitably doubtful in his heart: He was already at the highest level, why should he remain in seclusion for a long time?
He has also heard that the Supreme Being will face the world's backlash, but he hasn't heard of Jing Yuexin taking action recently, right?
With this doubt, he and Nelson left the experimental platform.
The two of them returned to their residence and were talking about going to the military area tomorrow to reply to a letter, when someone from above came to the door again.
It was Put who came here, and he was a little curious as to who the Digital Phantom's battalion-level ship was carrying back this time.
Hearing that another unknown male Supreme had appeared, Putt couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.
"This digital phantom...how many undisclosed cards does it have?"
However, the more this happened, the more he worried about the military's arrangements, "What is their attitude towards Tiangou Mi Mansion?"
Only then did Buckingham realize that the invitation to co-author the military was actually at the behest of this person.
So he relayed the other party's attitude, and by the way said that there should be someone in the digital phantom who is in retreat.
As expected, this news also attracted Putt's attention, and he even thought that Dogan seemed to have disappeared for a long time.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Is it possible that the other party has mastered the means to eliminate the backlash?"
It can be seen that deep down in his heart, he still has a high opinion of the Digital Phantom.
Upon hearing this, Buckingham quickly waved his hand, "Sir, I didn't dare to inquire about this news, and I don't want to make any assumptions."
Pute pondered for a moment and then said, "Then I'll have to trouble you and go back tomorrow."
"Tell the Supreme Being that I intend to come to discuss cooperative research on the Mysterious Mansion."
He had already been rejected once, but thinking of Dogan's disappearance, he couldn't help but want to contact her again.
The Digital Phantom team that he knew before did not have a male supremacy, and men and women had different ideas.
So this time, it’s another try, I hope it’s not so difficult for the other party to talk.
After Qu Jianlei heard about this request, he decided to meet him.
After all, this supreme leader has been at Tianfeng for more than a year, and he doesn't know if he is trying his best to guard against his own side.
When Putt boarded the battalion-class ship, he subconsciously released his senses - he was too curious about this team.
When Qu Jianlei saw this, he immediately lost the pressure on him - that's about it. When you come to visit, you have to act like a guest.
A hint of surprise flashed across Put's face - this person's aura felt deeper than his own.
His temper has never been very good, but this time, he calmed down a little.
Putt didn't believe that the opponent could be much stronger than him. If he put all his strength into it, he might be able to lose both sides.
But... why bother? No matter what backlash the other party may experience, he doesn't want to experience it anyway.
Considering that the other party might have a magic weapon, he didn't want to do it.
So he just nodded slightly and explained, "I'm a little too curious, sorry."
Qu Jianlei didn't want to embarrass the other party, but just said calmly, "I can understand."
But not accepting...right? Putt felt that the other party was more arrogant than himself.
However, the other party was really confident, and he didn't want to care about it, so he talked about cooperating with the military to study the Sky Hook Maze.
It must be admitted that the military does have the idea of further developing the maze, and the current research on the maze has also reached a bottleneck.
Putt hopes that the two sides will work together to break the information barrier and share future research results.
To be honest, there are really not many people who are qualified to make this suggestion, and even the boss of the Tianfeng Military Region has no right to make the final decision.
But Qu Jianlei said that his side is really not very interested in the Sky Hook Maze, and it is better to put the cooperation on hold for the time being.
Putt didn't force it after hearing this, especially when the other party said that he had entered the maze before.
He wanted to find out when the other party entered the maze, but Qu Jianlei laughed and didn't respond.
Putt made a second choice. He thought that the current information barrier had seriously affected the development of the awakener system.
——In this regard, the performance of the Federation and the Alliance was stronger than that of the Empire.
And the situation facing the Empire now was not ordinary severe.
So Putt hoped to have a frank talk with Digital Phantom and exchange relevant information resources.
Qu Jianlei was silent about this suggestion. He couldn't think of what information he needed from the military.
After a long time, he shook his head slightly, "Maybe we are a little arrogant, and feel that your suggestion is not equal."
This answer was a bit too arrogant, and Putt didn't even know how to respond to this sentence.
He was silent for a long time before sighing.
"I have no intention of morally blackmailing you, but the strength of the Empire's awakeners is far inferior to that of the Federation and the Alliance."
"Just talking about the Alliance, based on the existing intelligence, it can be preliminarily determined that the number of Supremes they have is close to 10,000!"
Qu Jianlei raised his eyebrows. This is quite rare data. "Is the information accurate?"
Put nodded and answered in a deep voice, "Just to get this number, the Empire lost nearly 100 elite military soldiers."
Qu Jianlei nodded when he heard it, "No wonder the awakeners who infiltrated the Alliance are generally so high in level."
Put answered calmly, "The specific data on the Federation side is ominous, but the probability is similar to that of the Alliance."
"Although the population of the Federation is smaller than that of the Empire, the number of Supremes will far exceed that of the Empire."
"They are still struggling to resist the invasion of the alien space. If this kind of experience falls on the Empire, what will be the consequences?"
Qu Jianlei pursed his lips and spoke after thinking for a while.
"I hope to obtain the most detailed information of the original warriors, as well as the information of the practitioners of the Divine Text System."
If the Empire really has any information that he doesn't know, it's only this.
For him who was born in Blue Star, searching for roots is an obsession, but rationally speaking, this thing cannot effectively improve combat power.
So he suppressed this mentality before, and now that the other party said it so badly, he should bring it up.
Apart from other things, I think Yi He and Qi Ling will be interested in these news, but Xizhao... that may not be the case.
A gleam of brilliance flashed across Put's eyes, and he nodded slowly, "So you don't know much about these?"
"Some guesses," Qu Jianlei spread his hands, "I am not from a famous family, and I don't know much about the core secrets..."
"I can get to this point now, purely by chance, and I hope to learn more dusty secrets."
Put nodded slightly, and did not question his statement, but said.
"These things are indeed kept secret in the empire to avoid unrest..."
"I can help you lobby for the right to know, but there are two problems."
"First, you must keep the relevant information confidential; second, what can we get?"
Qu Jianlei smiled when he heard it, "There is definitely no problem with keeping it confidential. We have been doing a good job. Now I want to ask, what do you hope to get?"
"We hope..." Putt's face was a little tangled.
There are so many good things in Digital Phantom that he doesn't know what conditions he should put forward.
After thinking for five or six seconds, he replied in a deep voice, "Thunderbolt and the means of using magic tools..."
Qu Jianlei couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard it, "You really dare to make an offer!"
