"What?!"
As soon as his subordinate reported the scene he had witnessed on the streets, Lord n, the Sky Alliance ambassador stationed in Thunderhawk City, immediately rose from behind his desk!
After standing up excitedly, the forty-something-year-old n, with his square face, furrowed his brows in thought and then promptly ordered, "Prepare the carriage at once, take me to the Guard Camp!"
Having said this, he left the office directly.
Although the Sky Alliance does not forcibly intervene in the development of its members, it still sends an ambassador to every member in Sky City, ostensibly to facilitate contact andmunication. In reality, there is also an element of surveince involved to prevent certain members from undertaking double-dealing actions. That''s why, once Thunderhawk City officially joined the Alliance, n took up residence there.
n had just turned forty this year. He had been an ambassador abroad for the Alliance for the past ten years, having stayed in three different Sky Cities, which speaks to his immense experience.
Logically speaking, experienced ambassadors like him would typically be assigned torge Sky Cities, as therger and stronger the city, the closer its rtionship with the Alliance, which would mean more issues for the ambassador to handle, coordinate, andmunicate. Thus, the more capable ambassadors would usually be dispatched torger Sky Cities.
But this time, n had been sent to Thunderhawk City. He was well aware of the reason for his assignment; even though Thunderhawk City couldn''tpare torger Sky Cities in aspects such as basic food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, he knew the importance of his stay here—in some ways, much more significant than being in arger Sky City.
Because his presence in Thunderhawk City wasn''t just to handle themunications between the city and the Alliance but also to understand and even monitor the development of new technology!
Though the Sky Alliance repeatedly ims not to forcefully demand members to surrender any technology they develop or discover, this does not apply to Rocky.
Firstly, it was only because of the new technology Rocky had at his disposal that he was even qualified to join the Alliance. So, even if the new technology had not been sessfully developed yet, the Alliance pretty much owned half of it. This meant that while they wouldn''t forcibly intervene, it wouldn''t be considered overstepping to have someone keep an eye on things, right?
Secondly, the Sky Alliance ced considerable value on this new technology. They believed that the new technology being spearheaded by Aniye was highly significant. If this technology was sessfully developed, then Rocky''s fulfillment of the agreement would naturally settle all concerns. However, if he tried to weasel out of it at that time, the Alliance would never allow it. Thus, they also needed someone as experienced as n to monitor and deal with Rocky''s duplicity.
So when n heard, "What? Rocky hase up with a new type of Armor?" and based on the descriptions from his subordinates, it was an Armor design never seen before, he couldn''t sit still.
As an ambassador of the Sky Alliance, he absolutely needed to be informed about such matters, which is why, regardless of whether Rocky wished it or not, he had to visit the Guard Corps to take a look; otherwise, it would be neglect of duty, which could leave him unable to exin himself if the Alliance asked.
Under such circumstances, a carriage was quickly prepared. n promptly headed straight for the Guard Camp, taking less than half an hour to get there.@@novelbin@@
Once he arrived at the Guard Camp, he was initially worried about being obstructed and had even prepared his excuses, but to his surprise, Rocky had already sent someone to wait for him at the gate!
"Lord n."
Stepping down from the carriage, n saw Liliya, who had obviously been waiting for some time, and then heard her say, "Lord n, the City Lord was just about to send me to invite you." Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire
"Miss Liliya, I''ve heard that City Lord Rocky has developed a new type of Armor. Hahaha, such important news—I couldn''t sit still upon hearing it, so I took the liberty ofing uninvited. I hope City Lord Rocky won''t mind."
"There is no offense, my lord, this way please."
With a slight smile towards n, Liliya did not engage in further conversation and led him straight into the Guard Camp.
The Guard Camp, being one of the most critical areas in Thunderhawk City, was off-limits to the general public, and n was naturally visiting it for the first time. However, after spending ten years as an ambassador and having visited military camps inrge Sky Cities, this event didn''t strike him as particrly grand.
But when Liliya led him onto the training field of the camp, n, despite being a seasoned individual, was stunned on the spot.
Clearly, he hadid eyes on the Tank Type 1 Armor!
Just like what Liliya had mentioned earlier, Rocky had been waiting for n''s arrival. Why did he show off the Tank Type 1 Armor on the main streets? Surely not just to boast. In reality, his demonstration was meant for the spies left in the city by various forces to witness.
Rocky was well aware that he was starting to draw attention, and among those watching him, some were just observers, while others had ulterior motives. He believed that a portion of these watchers did not have good intentions, which meant he could no longer afford to keep everything under wraps. It was necessary to demonstrate his power, even if it involved some bluster. Otherwise, those harboring evil thoughts would truly be fearless.
In this regard, he was clear that news of the Tank Type 1 Armor would be spread instantly. He also knew that n, the ambassador sent by the Sky Alliance, would arrive at the first opportunity, so after driving the Tank Type 1 Armor back to the Guard Camp, he simply waited for n toe.
