Chapter 156 The Star Gate Opens

Inside the Levakis Base.

Towering star gates, shining brilliantly.

The passage connected by the star gate remains open, because the opening of this star gate needs to be maintained for fifteen consecutive days to complete the planned schedule.

At that time, both sides connected by the star gate can travel freely.

At this time, inside the Levakis Base, a large amount of stored and mined resources can be seen being continuously transported to the Star Ring City through the star gate.

At the same time, the Star Ring City is sending a large number of weapons and personnel to the Levakis Base through the star gate.

At this moment, a special message reached everyone's hands.

"In recognition of the heroic participation of various countries, the Star Ring City has decided to make a special exception. The last three days of this star gate opening will be open to the Twelve Civilizations and all countries in the Cradle Zone free of charge. At that time, personnel from various countries can freely pass through the star gate."

......

After this message was delivered, the personnel of various countries were in an uproar.

This is simply like a pie falling from the sky.

......

Star Ring City Center · Administrative Council Building.

Icaroya sat elegantly at her desk, looking at the documents placed on it.

She picked up a pen indifferently and signed the word "Approved" on it.

Looking closely, you can see that a little bit of the titles are all about the application forms for new candidate proposals for the Royal Knights.

At this time, Qing Gui walked in respectfully and saluted Icaroya.

"What is it?"

Icaroya asked indifferently.

"The Third Legion, the Dust Legion, has sent back the latest intelligence that the unknown forces wandering on the outskirts of the Star Ring City have retreated one after another after the star gate opened."

Qing Gui picked up a report and placed it respectfully on the table.

"I see, step back."

Icaroya replied thoughtfully.

"Yes!"

Qing Gui then retreated.

Icaroya looked at the pile of documents on the table, her indifferent expression moved slightly. She casually waved her hand and brought up a virtual control interface, clicking on it a few times.

Before long, Krook, wearing colonial armor, walked in.

"City Lord Icaroya."

Icaroya picked up a document and handed it to Krook.

Krook took it and glanced at it. He saw the name Su Mo written on the document. A hint of surprise appeared on his calm face, but he still respectfully took out a pen and signed his name on the recommender section of the document.

Then he respectfully placed the document on the table and retreated.

Just as Krook was walking thoughtfully in the corridor after exiting, he ran into Goli.

"Krook."

Goli greeted him with a smile.

Krook came back to his senses and quickly responded, "Lord Goli."

"You seem a little absent-minded. Did something happen?"

Goli asked with interest.

"It's like this, Lord Goli, there is something I don't understand. City Lord Icaroya asked me to nominate Su Mo as a candidate for the Royal Knights. If the City Lord really values Su Mo, why doesn't she just appoint him directly?"

Krook didn't quite understand things. In his eyes, this was all a matter of a word from City Lord Icaroya.

Goli smiled and patiently explained to Krook.

"Logod is dead. You should know how many people are eyeing this vacant position. And you should also be very clear about how strict the selection requirements for the Royal Knights are."

"Yes, in my opinion, Su Mo's strength is quite good. Judging from the current information, he is much stronger than Logod."

Krook thought for a moment and replied.

"But you have to know that strength is the most important condition for selecting members of the Royal Knights, but it's not everything. In addition to strength, first, a background check is required to confirm whether they are reliable. Second, they need enough merits. Although you see that Su Mo seems to have made many great contributions, there are actually many people who have made even greater contributions than him. For example, those who helped my sister find the fragments of the Negative God, the God Creation Slate, top-level rare materials, discovered the conspiracy of the Eternal Sleepers, and even pinpointed the Level 6 Planetary-level Nest Fortress of the Eternal Sleepers, the Sleeper, and so on. They also want to compete for the Royal Knights. If my sister waves her hand and directly gives it to Su Mo, how can she convince the people below?"

Goli analyzed for Krook one by one.

"This...."

Krook didn't know what to say for a while.

Goli continued, "There are countless people competing for the position of the Royal Knights. Not to mention anything else, Logod's kingdom, the Milik Kingdom, is sparing no effort to push Logod's younger brother to the position. The Milik Kingdom has done so much for my sister, how can my sister ignore it? So everything can only be done according to the rules, fair competition! Whoever has the ability will be promoted."

"But what if Su Mo doesn't get promoted?"

Krook said with some concern.

"My sister values him, but he also has to show his skills. If he can get promoted, it means he lives up to expectations. If he can't get promoted, then he is of no value."

Goli explained to Krook.

After listening, Krook replied respectfully to Goli, "Thank you, Lord Goli, for clearing my doubts."

"Hmm, it's a small matter."

Goli nodded in response.

......

At this time, in the waiting area outside the office.

Commander Nanqi was sweating profusely, pacing anxiously in place.

At this moment, a non-commissioned officer walked over and said to Commander Nanqi, "Commander Nanqi, you can go in and see City Lord Icaroya now."

"Okay, okay."

Commander Nanqi responded distractedly.

Before long, Commander Nanqi entered the office with a heart full of trepidation.

He stood in front of City Lord Icaroya, and the sweat on his forehead kept flowing down. Back then, when facing thousands of enemies, he had never been so afraid.

"City Lord Icaroya, regarding this mission, it was my mistake..."

Commander Nanqi gritted his teeth and quickly admitted his mistake.

At this time, Icaroya slowly raised her hand, directly interrupting Commander Nanqi's next words, and replied indifferently.

"No need to say anymore."

Commander Nanqi's face turned even paler when he heard Icaroya's words. He quickly took out a special box from his body and handed it up.

"City Lord Icaroya, I have a fragment of the Negative God here..."

As a result, before he could finish speaking, Icaroya once again interrupted Commander Nanqi's words indifferently and replied.

"This doesn't seem to be yours, does it?"

Commander Nanqi's body also shook, and beads of cold sweat kept flowing down from his forehead.

"City Lord Icaroya, isn't this what you need, so I was thinking."

"Do I need to steal other people's things? Don't use your petty cleverness on this."

Icaroya replied coldly.

"Yes, yes, I know what to do."

Nanqi really wanted to die.

"Let's put those things aside for now. I have something for you to do."

Commander Nanqi was slightly taken aback when he heard Icaroya's words, and then said with a look of ecstasy.

"City Lord Icaroya, just give me your orders."
