Chapter 1851 Visitors to "Hometown"
After entering the venue first and finding a seat among the Earth Federation Army's seats, He Ming saw Cornelia's figure. Next to Cornelia was Audiseus V. Britannia, the 99th new emperor of the Britannian Empire.
Judging from the new emperor's expression, he seemed to exude a sense of awareness and a resolute radiance.
Did Schneizel inform us in advance?
No.
Schneizel will not do that.
Because there is no benefit in telling the truth to Audiseus.
Even if the first prince of the empire, Audiseus, is essentially a useless good-natured person, he would never dare to stand up and take the blame for the former emperor and bear the infamy. So, is it Cornelia?
When He Ming's gaze fell on Cornelia, the other seemed to notice and looked over as well, nodding slightly.
really!
He Ming saw a hint of apology in Cornelia's eyes, an apology for Audiseus's ascension to the throne and the infamy he bore.
That's really touching!
He Ming chuckled to himself, then turned his gaze to the door, ignoring the Britannian Empire delegation.
The fate of the Britannian Empire delegation was already sealed. Their participation in the conference was merely a formality, a way to announce the outcome as losers.
Following the Britannian Empire's delegation was the Muzo delegation led by Artesia.
Of course, apart from Artesia, the accompanying personnel were all temporarily filled by members of the Punishment faction.
Everyone present noticed this, but pretended not to see it and greeted Artesia in an official manner.
Among these people, many councilors secretly cast their gazes toward He Ming, who sat steadily to one side of the Earth Federation Army's seat.
Their intentions were crystal clear, but everyone just kept quiet about it.
After handling all diplomatic affairs with ease, Artesia followed the staff's instructions and sat down in the seats reserved for representatives of third-party forces, opposite the Earth Federation Army seats.
After He Ming and Artesia nodded to each other across the distance, they simultaneously turned their gaze to the entrance of the venue, watching the councilors and representatives from all over the world enter one after another.
A variety of faces appeared one after another, dazzling the eye.
Among them, He Ming inadvertently spotted some very familiar figures.
To say it looks familiar is a bit of an exaggeration.
However, their attire was rather old-fashioned and somewhat incongruous.
Why?
Because, when He Ming was observing the other party, he found that the person leading the other party was very... how to put it.
"That man seemed very effeminate. His face was covered in white powder."
Alice, standing behind He Ming, also seemed quite puzzled by the person leading the group.
"Of course. Because he was a eunuch."
He Ming smiled slightly, because he had figured out who the other person was.
"Eunuchs? What are those...?"
Alice seemed to realize something halfway through her sentence, and a blush crept onto her handsome face, but she quickly suppressed it.
"Why does this kind of thing still exist in this world..."
"Because this world incorporates many worlds that we don't know about! Therefore, anything can happen."
He Ming explained softly. "Yes! I understand."
When Alice saw a number of Earth Federation military officers approaching, she quickly stood up straight and said solemnly.
However, upon discovering that He Ming's face was concealed by a mask, the officers did not come over to greet him, but instead tacitly chose to sit away from him.
Such a clear distinction in their behavior made many of the attendees, who had not previously noticed He Ming's presence, spot him.
"Hehe~"
The eunuch Gao Hai, whose face was covered in white powder and whose first words were a high-pitched, duck-like laugh, raised his hand to cover half of his face while squinting at He Ming.
(Eunuch Gao Hai)
“Starmark. That must be Colonel Ming of the Earth Federation Forces, right? I heard that his Punishment Force has been making a name for itself recently, not only easily defeating the BETA invasion, but also turning the tide and saving many senators and tens of thousands of civilians during the Prague incident.”
The man questioned by the eunuch Gao Hai was none other than Li Xingke, the military officer accompanying the group.
"Yes, Lord Gao. That is Colonel Ming, the commander in charge of punishment."
When Li Xingke, who was known as a prodigy, learned that he would be participating in the Earth Federation Council meeting as an attendant of the official Gao Hai, he constantly sent people to gather intelligence on the Earth Federation Army.
In particular, the Punishment Force, which has recently risen to prominence and carved out a niche for itself in the Earth Sphere, is of paramount importance to him in gathering intelligence.
"Hehe~ It seems we need to make contact with this hero."
After a slight smile, the eunuch Gao Hai turned around and looked at Li Xingke with disdain.
"If it weren't for the weakness and incompetence of you military officers, would we have had to humbly travel across the ocean to beg the Earth Federation for help? The Emperor's dignity has been completely disgraced by you incompetent military officers!"
Upon hearing the eunuch's accusations, Li Xingke felt resentful, but he was unable to refute them.
Because, in their homeland, on that very land, they too suffered from the ravages of the BETA.
However, for some reason, their hometown had been unable to seek help from the outside world until recently when they discovered that the mysterious force that had been besieging their hometown had disappeared without them noticing.
In order to save his homeland and to expel the BETA as soon as possible, the young emperor, after learning about the Earth Federation Forces, specially dispatched an envoy across the ocean to Chabro to seek help.
"Hmph! I bet you wouldn't dare to argue with me."
The eunuch snorted coldly, then turned around and immediately put on a friendly and enthusiastic face, trying to communicate with the participating representatives around him. His quick change of expression was hard for most people to understand.
"Just as I expected."
This scene was also witnessed by He Ming.
"Colonel. That eunuch seems to wield considerable power? The military officer didn't dare to contradict him."
Alice looked around and, seeing that no one had come to sit down, couldn't help but ask again.
"Of course. They are the emperor's close attendants, and they represent the emperor's face and authority."
He Ming nodded and then gave a brief explanation.
"Well, according to East German custom, it should be the president's special envoy, a special envoy with considerable power."
"Yes! I understand."
After receiving the answer, Alice Tina straightened her face and stood up straight again.
To be honest, if it weren't for Alice's occasional displays of curiosity, He Ming would have thought she would be even more... ruthless than the original Alice.
