Chapter 166 South America (2)
The heavy oak door was opened by a beautiful girl in a maid's suit. A humid air with a slightly plant-like aroma came. Rhode asked hard and found that it was a special spice smell, expensive but tasteful, but he could not hide the identity of the nouveau riche of the owner of the house.
Ruot Jipleil, a guy who doesn't have much historical precipitation, relies on speculation and means to come to power. By now, he has replaced the Azrael family and become the head of the huge system of LOGOS. However, the control power of this new leader is not as powerful as his predecessor, and a large number of veteran families do not listen to him.
So, when Rhodes saw this guy, Jipleil was not as excited as Dali, but instead had a little sad look.
With white curly hair, purple lips, and straight dress, it looked like a gentleman. A black cat was lying on his thigh, and his right hand with a big gem was stroking the black cat's long hair. When Rod came in, Jepley was not cold, but he didn't look like a welcome look. Instead, he looked at the cabinet on one side of the room.
"Thank you, Chairman Jipleil." Rhode smiled faintly, opened the cabinet and took out the most expensive whiskey, poured himself a cup, and then drank it all. He was used to seeing big people, so he would not be restrained.
This "demon wolf" deeply knows that the politeness of a big man does not come from whether his understanding is in place, but from the power behind him. Only when a man has enough power in his hands can he be respected by others.
Sure enough, Rhode's slightly vulgar behavior did not arouse Jiple's plan. Instead, the latter still stroked the black cat on his thighs over and over again, trying to make himself look unfathomable. But for this, Rhode smiled slightly sarcastically and felt that killing Azrael was the right thing to do.
Compared with that truly unfathomable old man, the man in front of him is too immature and really incomparable. Although he is far above ordinary people, he is not enough to control the Silver Wolf, a group of guys who are like wolves and tigers.
So seeing that Jipleil did not speak out, Rhode spoke first: "Your Excellency the Chairman, should the previous contract with LOGOS be fulfilled? To be honest, Silver Wolf's strength is now damaged, and some of the entrustments may not be accepted."
Jepley was not stupid and knew Rhode's intention, so he nodded very readily: "20 105 daggers have been installed at the California assembly plant and will be transported to L4 soon. If you have anything else to do, please give it up."
"1 Agamen Dragon-class space carrier and 2 Nelson-class cruisers." Rhode is not polite.
"Impossible, the Universe Army's own ships are not enough." Jiple also refused very simply, and finally added: "The Drake-class can handle several ships."
As soon as he finished speaking, Rhode opened his mouth wide, smiling and without saying a word, he stared at Jipleil Drake-class? What should he do with a small hull with little potential for transformation? Flying coffin? Mercenaries who walk on the elite military do not have as much human resources as the Earth Army.
Sure enough, Jipleil gradually became more and more despicable as Rhodes watched. He was different from the Azrael family. After taking over, there were too few troops that could be mobilized by him. Many secret troops of Blue Cosmos were not controlled yet. Perhaps he could master a lot of power in a year, but now he still had to rely on the sharp knife of Silver Wolf.
"The two Nelson-class ships are all later models after MS modification."
"Thank you, Silver Wolf's mobile forces can be restored to a considerable extent and can serve some of your commissions." Rhodes did not gain any effort, and he also knew about Jiple's difficulties.
"I'm glad you could stop like this, so..." Jepley still answered in an arrogant voice, opened the drawer, took out two documents and handed it to Rhodes. He paid so much, and naturally there was a reward. This is the principle of business, and it is impossible to ask for anything without asking for anything.
Rhode also felt energetic and seemed to ask keenly. He picked up two documents and read it quickly. He found that it was two commissions. The first one was still an assassination figure that the big guys liked very much. However, the goal was a bit tricky, and he was actually a big boss in LOGOS. This big boss seemed to have contracted the expansion project of the new base of the Moon Fleet. Out of politeness, he naturally wanted to go to the moon to meet the senior officer of the Space Army.
After reading it, Rhodes splashed the paper and replied with a cruel and bloodthirsty smile: "This commission is next for our mercenary group. This priest will die under the stubborn ZAFT gun. Well, you must know that the current universe is not as calm as it appears."
The two of them looked at each other and saw the satisfaction in each other's eyes. The Silver Wolf dared to attack the LOGOS master, which has indirectly stated that at least on the Earth United side, Silver Wolf is standing on the stance of Jiple's position. As for whether the goal is good or bad, there is no need to consider.
After a moment, the laughter paused and Rhode slowly pushed the second document in front of Jipleir.
"Captain Rhodes, what does this mean?" Jipleil narrowed his eyes and his voice was deep.
The second commission was to join the Southern Military Region of the Atlantic Federation to participate in the suppression of the United States of South America, but Rhodes seemed to have no interest, although this guy's first battle began with suppressing the protests of the Balkans.
"There are three reasons." Rhode stretched out three fingers: "First, I don't feel very good about this kind of task." He seemed to have returned to ten years ago, when the young smoke demon wolf was wearing the rank of Eurasian Federation and a silly tank soldier's fur hat. In his observation mirror, there was a black crowd in the distance. Then the young Eurasian Federation officer trembled and executed the orders of his superiors, and the hot cannons shot at the unarmed people.
"Second, my special machine was damaged, just as compensation, I got this." Rhode took a disc out of his waist pocket and handed it to Jipleil.
Without asking the latter, I directly explained: "This is the rough data of the ZAFT Army MS reactor. If you are interested, you can give the physical objects to the LOGOS research institute."
Jepley closed her mouth quietly and did not pay much attention to it. After having the anti-neutron jammer, the components on this MS were not valued by the big guys. They just nodded and replied without Rhode's request: "If it is indeed useful, after mass production, you will get what you want, including data and physical objects."
In a blink of an eye, Jipleil added: "Don't worry about the problem of special machines. The LOGOS factory has enough machines for you to choose from, but they are not very powerful things. Moreover, the new 105 Dagger troops can be placed here for practical training first. I can even give you some command of the Atlantic Federation Army." As soon as he finished speaking, Jipleil leaned on the back of the chair leisurely and asked with a playful smile: "So, what is your third reason?"
The big man had already shown his sincerity, and Rhodes could not disobey anything anymore, so he could only smile bitterly: "Time cannot last too long, it is limited to March." He pointed to the sky and said: "Some people in the universe are not allowed to share."
LOGOS has its own intelligence network, the Tianzhi Pillar, the giant snake tail, and the silver wolf are still clear, or they are happy to see these forces consume each other, Jipleil nodded: "Then it's limited to March."
After the words came, his hand finally left the black cat on his legs and picked up the wine glass: "Please, please."
Rhode nodded slightly, closed his mouth and said nothing. The demon wolf with smoke did not need to make any guarantee like a coward. The next commission would definitely do it. He picked up the file on the table, copied the contents into an encrypted disc, and handed the paper document to Jipleil, who knew what to do.
When Rhode turned and left, the two documents dripping with alcohol turned into flames and fell into the gilded trash can, the black cat jumped aside because of fright, and his pupils reflected the gloomy face of his master.
Jipleil put his hand under the table and took out a specially set holographic video recorder. He had to do some back-up to avoid the Silver Wolf's harm one day, but after pressing the playback button, his face turned as if he was a ghost.
