"Except for mainstream media, those news agencies that rely on traffic to make a living don't care whether you are a confidential person or not."

"And your information is not considered a special secret among Nidhogg's military."

In a small cubicle in the drug store, Xun Song spoke in a rather casual tone. Qin Lang sat opposite, while Luna was hiding aside, trying to clear the game by herself.

To be honest, if he hadn't scanned it with a scanner, Qin Lang wouldn't have believed that the unreliable-looking man in front of him was the legendary Xun Song.

What about the aura of a master? What about the demeanor of a wise man?

The person sitting in front of me was obviously a reform-through-labor prisoner who had just escaped from prison!

There are so many flaws that I don’t know where to start.

Qin Lang took a deep breath and decided to test first whether the legendary "Master Xunsong" was really as amazing as the players in the previous life said.

"Since you also know my identity, I will ask straight to the point."

"There are only a handful of senior advisors in the entire Nidhogg. What I'm thinking about now is, what kind of situation will the senior advisor face after he completes the research commissioned by Nidhogg?"

"Or to put it more bluntly, what will happen to them?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked the question that he had been thinking about recently.

The original owner of the body he was reborn from was Nidhogg's senior advisor. Such beings, who are rare in the entire Cloud Ring Starfield, are usually high-end scientists with rich research results.

But in the past life, none of these people made Qin Lang remember that he had specifically read the summary of netizens about the development history of the version of the Euclid Galaxy. Apart from Nidhogg's core research, it did not mention it.

The so-called "senior consultant" thing.

To be honest, how could these experts who can develop super weapons be unknown people?

Qin Lang had a guess in his mind, but he was still not sure.

When Xun Song, who was sitting opposite, heard this question, he smiled softly and said four words.

"Death is certain."

!!

This answer can almost be said to be right on target!

"Death is certain?" Qin Lang suppressed his surprise and asked, "So sure?"

"Not sure. For Nidhogg, it should be strange not to do this." He sighed.

"Why?"

Xun Song did not speak, but stretched out his palm.

...Half a minute passed.

"So, what does the palm mean?" Qin Lang scratched his head.

"It represents money!"

"Oh my god."

This is too realistic. Qin Lang thought he was going to show off some knowledge or philosophy.

"The question you asked is too simple. I'll just charge you 50 Galaxy Coins." Xun Song raised his eyebrows as if it was a matter of course.

Qin Lang silently transferred the money to him: "Tell me, why is the senior adviser certain to die?"

"There are three reasons. First, although I don't know the specific content of what the senior consultant is engaged in, it must be a very powerful destructive weapon. This leads to the fact that each senior consultant is responsible for independent and

Highly confidential."

Qin Lang nodded after hearing this.

"Second, because it is highly confidential, very few people know about it. In other words, finding a reason to get rid of the senior consultant is a low-trouble, high-yield thing." Xun Song crossed his fingers and said with a smile,

"This way we can never have the trouble of leaking secrets, and we won't cause any reputational trouble."

A senior adviser is like a "ghost member" in the army. People know his existence, but they don't know his whereabouts or status. Suddenly there are no advisers, and to people it is like the pointer on the dial jumping from 1 to 1.

2 is the same, it is difficult to detect at all.

"The third and most fundamental point." Xun Song paused and then said, "You have to understand that for Nidhogg, political interests outweigh everything else."

This sentence made Qin Lang's heart move, and the whole problem was finally completely clear.

I won’t go into details about politically sensitive issues. One thing Qin Lang finally wanted to understand is that everything that seems to be used as a bargaining chip, whether it’s population or technology, is just nothing to Nidhogg.

It's just a tool to control power.

"Senior consultants have made important contributions to the development of the organization" is not convincing in the face of organizational interests.

"As for the fate that Consultant Qin mentioned... it's actually very clear." Xun Song held out three fingers, "Brainwashing senior consultants or simply controlling them through puppets is the most despicable but most beneficial method for the organization.

But this is probably something only Abyss would do.”

"As for Nidhogg, simply obliterating it is the common sense approach."

"Only people with fair, kind and beautiful minds would think that erasing the memories of these senior consultants and releasing them into old age is a reasonable solution, right?" He sneered, "Such an idea is not viable in an interstellar world where the jungle is strong and the strong eat the weak.

Can’t go down.”

Qin Lang choked at his words.

He originally had the slightest illusion that if Nidhogg could treat these senior advisers better, he might be able to recruit them to his side. But now it seems that it is completely impossible.

He even sympathized with Xu Binghang.

A few days ago, this man stood in Nidhogg's position without hesitation and negotiated with himself.

"Been taught a lesson."

Qin Lang bowed his hands to Xun Song humbly: "It seems that Mr. Xun's knowledge is really incomparable."

"You're welcome, I'll do the work for you." Xun Song smiled disapprovingly.

"When you said that, I was a little hesitant."

Qin Lang rubbed his hands.

"My next question is, I don't even know how much it's worth."

"If you have any questions, just ask." Xun Song waved his hand, "I'm not short of money. Just ask, can I still blackmail you?"

"Then...good!"

Qin Lang took a deep breath and asked what he was most worried about.

"You know me as Nidhogg's advisor. But in fact, I am no longer."

"Now, I am the leader of an organization. In the fifth sector, I own the territory of two star systems."

"Under my territory, there are now more than 100,000 people and an army of more than 30,000 people."

"My organization is now not only declaring war with the Abyss, but is also hostile to Nidhogg. Once the Abyss loses, Nidhogg will target me."

"And if Nidhogg loses, I will be attacked head-on by the abyss."

He took a deep breath, stared at the calm Xun Song in front of him, and asked, "What should I do to get out of this predicament?"

"My goal is not to settle in a small corner of this vast starry sky."

"What I want is not just this star region!"

Xun Song across the table was silent for a while, then pulled out an entire galaxy map on his panel and pushed it in front of Qin Lang. The meaning was obvious, he needed to know the current location of Qin Lang's power.

Therefore, Qin Lang marked the two star systems e99u and e97u on the map.

"If you only want to protect yourself, we don't need to look at this star map." Xun Song said, "There are many ways to protect yourself, and they can be summed up in three types: vassalage, migration or resistance."

"You have already made it clear that you will not consider vassalage and migration. So fighting is the most difficult way, but it is also the way that can most completely satisfy your hopes." Xun Song sighed, "I don't know what you want.

What is the true strength of the organization? But you must understand that if you want to fight, you must be prepared to bear the fate of everyone."

"If you make a mistake on this road, your organization and people will be buried with you."

Qin Lang nodded heavily: "I understand."

At the same time, a new message also popped up on the panel.

"Hidden mission: Xun Song's expectations."

"Mission description: Your frankness and ideals have given Xun Song, who has been confused for many years, hope again. Listen to his opinions and implement the plan step by step, and you will gain Xun Song's loyalty."

Qin Lang glanced at the mission rating, and it turned out to be a race-level mission! The previously triggered Edit hidden mission was just a civilization-level mission, only one level higher than the one in front of him.

Qin Lang took a deep breath.

"I've already decided, Mr. Xun, but it doesn't matter!"

"Okay!"

"An outstanding ruler can never focus only on the territory in front of him. To defend himself by enclosing the territory will inevitably lead to destruction!"

He enlarged the star map of the Cloud Ring Star Territory, and the spheres of influence of Nidhogg and Abyss were clearly displayed in front of the two of them.

"You just said that you are caught between Nidhogg and the Abyss, and you are facing a difficult situation. But in my opinion, this is the best situation!" Xun Song pointed at the star map and said, "Now you,

It is precisely because of being caught between these two forces that there is no
