Aliens on Earth [Interstellar]

Chapter 123: Sands Mercenary Corps 03

　Letting aliens enter the earth is for seeking help, but the accompanying danger has to be carefully considered. This is not something that can be jointly discussed with other countries. Other countries are not parties to the Asmon disaster. Basically, they either stand and talk without back pain, or they want to see you in bad luck.

　　The summit meeting of the Central Committee of the country lasted for three consecutive days, and finally set two basic bottom lines: one is not to allow starships to land on the earth, and the other is to limit the number of people who land on the earth. Three days later, the military in City H initiated a meeting with the Jinsha Mercenary Corps, and the location was the nearest command base where Lu Sishui was.

　　The military representatives were Lu Sishui and Yao Sheng, the Sands mercenaries were attended by Baiwei and Yalis, and Leisende and Ji Lin attended as middlemen.

　　Compared with the negotiation with Resende, the language exchange in this negotiation was much smoother. The Sands Mercenary Group does not need a translator, and Yalis' Lama grass can help interpret the other party's meaning very well. The military's translators are Su Miao and Zhao Yi. With the help of Ji Lin, they learned the language of the Mandel Starfield, and now they are basically capable of translating for the communication between the two sides.

         Although they can't translate some sentences very well, they are professional enough in terms of professionalism, and they will not easily bring their own thoughts like Ji Lin, and they will protest and silence in the middle to protest some of Resende's speeches. With the assistance of Ji Lin and Lei Sende, the translation went smoothly.

　　There was no obstacle in language communication between the two sides, but problems arose from the very beginning of the talks.

　　Lu Sishui and Yao Sheng, as the main persons in charge who first contacted Leisende and others, are no strangers to the people in the Mandel Starfield, and they are also friends with Leisende, so they feel that this meeting is unnecessary Probing and going around in circles, he didn't say any polite words, and he clearly stated the basic bottom line mentioned above as soon as he came up.

　　but--

　　[When did we say that we would help you get rid of Asi Beast? 】Baiwei scratched the top of his head, and made his hair, which was not very docile at first, messy, 【We are a mercenary group, not a charity organization, so what... It's basically a model where you pay us to do things. The task we received was to take Marshal Resende back and clean up the Asbes on this planet, which was not included in the task list. ]

　　Lu Sishui and others on the opposite side were stunned after hearing the translation. The script was completely different from what they expected.

　　Baiwei glanced at Leisende, the chair he was sitting on made a slight noise as he leaned forward, and he showed a big smile to Lu Sishui opposite, [Of course, if Leisende is less Shuai is willing to pay the cost of cleaning up the Asmon task, which is another matter. 】

　　Resende looked sideways at Baiwei.

　　This person looked carefree, and even acted a little messy, such as challenging him as soon as they met. The reckless behavior that could be said made him doubt his identity as the deputy head of the Sands Mercenary Corps. But looking at it now, he really deserved to be Tang En's right-hand man, the deputy head of the Sands Mercenary Corps. With just a few words, he reversed the form of the meeting, turning passive into active. In the end, he proposed to ask him to pay the fee—if he couldn't see through it, it would be a trap to separate him from Lu Sishui and the others;

　　"Raysende has no reason to pay this fee for us." After listening to the translation, Lu Sishui said, "As an ally, Leisende has helped us a lot in dealing with Asimon, but cleaning up the remaining Asimon mainly The beneficiary is us. Moreover, since you are here to take Rezende back, he is about to leave the earth, and he is already an outsider in the matter of targeting the Ashen on the earth. We did not let irrelevant people bear the burden The reason for the cost."

　　[Surprisingly kind. 】 Baiwei smiled and turned the cup in front of him, but he was a little surprised. It seems that this earthling is an honest man, he didn't see through the trap in his words, but he didn't step into the trap either.

　　"It's not a question of kindness, it's a question of principle."

　　Baiwei: [I appreciate people with principles. 】

　　Lu Sishui frowned slightly. Baiwei seemed to be the same type as Lucas, but his behavior was unpredictable, which belonged to his most difficult type.

　　"Mr. Baiwei just said that you are a mercenary group, as long as you pay, you will do things." Seeing that Lu Sishui was detoured into a dead end, Yao Sheng took over the right to talk, "That is to say, if we pay the fee, you will do things." To help deal with the remaining Asi beasts, can I ask you to quote a price?"

　　Baiwei paused slightly while turning the cup, and turned his gaze to Yao Sheng who was beside Lu Sishui. Compared with Lu Sishui's "honesty", this one is much more shrewd. He directly characterizes the mode of doing things for money, and doesn't ask them whether they will accept the task or not, and directly asks the price.

　　Although their team leader meant to help clean up the remaining Asi beasts on the earth, but since the other party asks for a price, let's continue to tease it. Thinking of this, Baiwei raised three fingers at Yao Sheng, [We came to Earth to take on the mission of Marshal Resende, and the Marshal's father paid us three planets with mineral resources...] 

          [I remember that the Sands Mercenary Corps was According to the difficulty of the task, it is decided to charge a fee. 】Not waiting for Su Miao to translate, Lei Sende interjected, 【Still...for the combat power of the Sands Mercenary Group, the difficulty of picking up a few fleeing ordinary Asi beasts is actually the same as that of exploring the outside world of the star map. Is the difficulty of the location star field on par? 】

　　I didn't expect Resende to intervene so soon, and Baiwei's trick plan failed, so I could only shrug my shoulders and say, 【So our request is just to order some local products from this planet. ]

　　After Leisende spoke, the meeting ended successfully in a short time. Except for the limited scope and value of the so-called "earth specialties", the details need to be further discussed later, and everything else was agreed upon. The starships of the Sands Mercenaries will not land on the earth, and the number of people landing on the earth will be limited to 50 people, which can almost be said to be completely in line with the meaning of the earth.

　　After the meeting ended, Ji Lin and Lei Sende walked out of the administrative building where the conference room was located together with the Sands Mercenaries.

　　[I think this meeting is like child's play...] Ji Lin glanced at Baiwei who was walking in front, and said to Resende.

　　[This was originally a child's play. 】Baiwei in the front turned to Ji Lin and said, 【If those earthlings hadn't made it seem like we were here to invade the earth, there would be no need for this meeting at all. We are a mercenary group, not an army, how could we invade a planet. Besides, this planet is still outside the star map. It is too far away from the Mandel star field, and the cost of going back and forth is high. It is extremely troublesome to manage. Unless the ruler is mentally ill, no one will be born to occupy it. The idea of ​​such a distant planet. This negotiation is also mainly because of the attitude of the people on earth, to scare them. ]

　　After Baiwei finished speaking with a smile, he quickly changed the subject and asked Ji Lin about the special products of the earth.

　　What Ji Lin didn't know was that if the head of the Sands Mercenary Group had no interest in the earth, then this meeting would not be a scare. The Sands Mercenary Group has no plan to stay on Earth. Now that they have found Leisende and others, they can leave at any time. What about Asi Beast on Earth really has nothing to do with them. If they don't want to care, they can really do it. Ignore it, as Byvie said in the meeting - they are not a charity.

　　The day after the meeting ended, the frigate of the Sands Mercenary Group secretly landed on the outskirts of City H, bringing with them more than 20 fighters and investigators. Counting the 20 people brought by Baiwei and the others to search for Resende, the number was just controlled at Within 50 people.

　　The Sands Mercenary Corps has portable equipment dedicated to searching for Asi beasts, which is similar to that used by the military in the Mandel Starfield. Because there was a beast king before, Asi beasts were all concentrated in S City, and then fled because the beast king was killed, and the time of escape was not too long, and Asi beasts could not escape too far. The Sands Mercenary Corps, centered on City S, carried out a radial spiral search to the surrounding area, and with the assistance of the Earth's military, within half a month, they cleared out the remaining Asi Beasts.

　　[Theoretically speaking, it is absolutely cleaned up. According to the detection range of the detector, we radiate and search from the center of S. This kind of carpet search cannot be avoided by Asimon. According to the movement speed of Asimon, it can run this far at most, and the scope of our search has exceeded this estimated distance by a lot. ] Baiwei pointed to the map and said to Lu Sishui, 【And we have placed detectors in the places we searched, and it is impossible for Asimon to return to the places that have been searched. 】

　　After Baiwei finished speaking, Zhao Yi helped translate to Lu Sishui.

　　Lu Sishui: "You're talking about the horizontal distance, what about the vertical distance?"

　　" The diving depth is also within the range of our detectors. If it goes deeper, it will drown itself. They are not creatures that can stay underwater for a long time. I think Marshal Resende should have mentioned it to you, right? 】

　　Lu Sishui nodded and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. This long battle brought about by alien monsters is finally coming to an end.

　　[The next period is the observation period, to ensure that there is no Asi beast that slipped through the net. ] Baiwei went on to say.

　　"Thank you." Lu Sishui sincerely thanked Baiwei.

　　【This is just a task for us. Now that the current situation is over, let's go first. ] After Baiwei finished speaking, he took Alis to walk out of Lu Sishui's office, and stopped at the door, [By the way, I forgot to say, our team leader will land on Earth in two days, don't forget to promise to be Souvenir of employment fee. 】
