Chapter 107: The Great Attack (I)
“.” Jean Joan stood up and turned and walked to the lounge outside the venue. After taking a dozen steps, he turned around and beckoned to Gu Xichen.
Knowingly followed Jean Joan, Gu Xichen walked into the lounge and closed the door. Prince Freret, who didn't know whether it was coincidental or intentional, happened to walk past the door of the lounge, and he glared fiercely at the closed door.
"Give you a minute to convince me why I should support you as the new head of the Secret Service. ”
Jean Joan stood in the window of the break room, overlooking the changing of the guard in the square outside the Federal Headquarters building.
Gu Xichen didn't say a word, he took out a fist-sized green jade bottle from his little Qiankun bag, and carefully placed the bottle on the window frame in front of Jean Joan.
"Is this the right thing? Is it worth handing over the Secret Service to you? Your appetite is too great!"
Jean Joan looked at the small jade bottle mockingly, and shook her head again and again.
"Inside this bottle are nine 'Qingling Rejuvenation Pills', which are my unexpected harvest in the Heavenly Star Stacking Waves Hidden Dragon Pool. Each pill of Rejuvenation Pill can rejuvenate the dead wood of an old man who is about to enter the wood, and restore his body function to the peak state when he was twenty years old. Nine rejuvenation pills are the hope of nine times of rejuvenation. With your strength, you can live at least a thousand years more, and a thousand years of energy and enjoyment. ”
Gu Xichen put his hands behind his back and said lightly: "The current biotechnology of the Federation will allow you to prolong your life to about three hundred years old at most, and you will have to throw away all your glory and wealth. Or you can use the resources at your disposal to transform into a vampire or a zombie, but according to the Escapist Declaration, once you are no longer a pure human, you must give up everything and escape into the darkness!"
'Click', Joan's hands tightened into fists, and he stared at the green jade pill bottle in front of him.
"Something like that...... How many do you have?" said Joan's voice.
"There aren't many finished products. Gu Xichen avoided Jean Qiao'an's question, and he laughed softly: "It's just that I have a prescription in my hand!"
"If you take the nine pills in turn, will the medicinal power not decay?" Qiao An grabbed the jade bottle and turned to stare at Gu Xiechen.
"If you have less than nine pills, the medicinal power will not decay. After taking more than 9 capsules, the effect of each pill will be reduced by 70% because the body cells have become resistant to the drug. Gu Xichen looked at Jean Joan and smiled: "But a thousand years of healthy and natural lifespan, can't you still be impressed? Maybe a thousand years from now, we earth humans will be like those Romans, breaking through the limits of life and having a long lifespan of thousands of years." These nine pills are hope for a big man like you!"
'Hope'! Hope of immortality! What emperor in the world can resist such a temptation? Jean Joan, whose power is a hundred times stronger than any emperor in history, cannot resist this temptation!
Holding the vial with all her might, Joan carefully stuffed it into her hidden pocket. A kind smile appeared on his thin face, and he patted Gu Yichen's shoulder very affectionately: "I am also very good old friends with Mr. Gu Yitong. You, evil dust, are no different from my sons and nephews. In the future, when I have time, I will go to my uncle's house and walk around!"
Gu Xiechen also smiled, his smile was as quiet, warm, pure, and flawless as the sunshine in March, and he smiled gently: "Uncle Qiao Ann is gracious, and Evil Dust should come to visit him a lot." ”
Jean Joan affectionately took Gu Xichen's hand and pulled him towards the door of the lounge. He said with a smile: "However, I am not alone in controlling such a key department as the Secret Service, Prince Frevice of the House of Lords cannot be ignored, and the most important thing is the opinion of His Excellency Couckett, Speaker of the House of Commons, after all, it is ...... procedurally."
The same two green medicine bottles smoothly swiped into Jean Joan's palm, and Gu Xichen smiled gently: "Each bottle contains three Rejuvenation Pills! Prince Frerett is not young, right?"
The medicine bottle magically disappeared from Jean Joan's palm, and he smiled softly, and took Gu Xichen's hand affectionately and walked out of the lounge. He patted Gu Xichen on the shoulder and motioned for him to go back to the venue and wait, and then let Joan walk calmly to the room where Prince Freet and Couckert were resting, and closed the door with his own hands.
Fifteen minutes later, all the top levels of the upper and lower houses of the Federal Assembly passed a resolution at the same time: appointing the federal councillor Gu Xichen as the head of the secret service, and the appointment document was issued on the spot and sent to the federal military department. The Federal Military Department quickly sent back an official letter of feedback, and Gu Xichen's military rank was adjusted to Federal Colonel, and his military relationship was directly transferred to the Federal Assembly.
In terms of military rank, Gu Xichen suffered a little loss, because of the special status of the secret service, the director of the secret service can only be the rank of colonel, but the real power he has obtained is not much greater than before.
Early the next morning, Gu Xichen rushed to the Federal Securities Exchange Center in the north of the Federal Headquarters Building with Gu Hua and Sairen, and traded all the shares of Hardward Company under his name to Zhan Hua and Sairen. According to the Federal Employees Act, in order to eliminate the possibility of abusing power for personal gain, Gu Xichen, as the director of the Secret Service, could not have other positions in society, and the chief of operations of the Hardward Corporation naturally became the joint takeover of Lookhua and Sairen.
Xuan Hua used the power of the Nine Shadows in secular society to inject a huge amount of cash into Gu Xichen's private account as the price for transferring equity.
As soon as the group walked out of the securities trading center, Tartarus drove an open-top sports car in front of everyone, and he nodded to Gu Xichen with a smile: "Congratulations, congratulations." ”
Gu Xichen laughed and got into the sports car, handed over a cigar very friendly, and said with a smile: "Tongxi, Tongxi." Those captured supernatural beings are now all incorporated into the special combat team of the military headquarters, right?"
Tartarospi shook his head again and again without smiling: "What are hundreds of supernatural beings? There are nearly a million agents under the name of the Secret Service, and at least half of them are supernatural beings, and there are many of them, but our military department is looking at the covetous masters! How about it? Do you remember our agreement?"
After pondering for a while, Gu Xichen generously promised to hand over all the Secret Service Adeptus agents to Tartarus, and even the few public Realm Soldiers and secret Realm Soldiers under the name of the Secret Service were all handed over. With such a generous hand, Tartarus, who was lighting a cigar, couldn't help but be taken aback, and he gasped sharply, choking on a puff of smoke into his lungs, choking him so much that he almost coughed and almost lost his breath.
