Shepard is perfectly fine with the situation when conflicts arise and the result is a sit down and talk.
However, this was due to Xie Yuan's face, and the other was due to the terrifying strength of the two brothers Curze and Angron - as soon as Curze showed his hand, Shepard found that he was not even able to parry, and even Jack and Angron were unable to resist.
Grunt can be killed by him in an instant!
The rumors are true. The fighting abilities of Curze and Angron can really be shocking - so what is the relationship between Xie Yuan and these two?
Shepard felt this, but could not find out the truth.
But fortunately, it seemed that because of Xie Yuan's presence, both brothers behaved extremely restrained and polite, otherwise Shepard might have had to be humiliated before he could sit down and talk.
After thinking about it, Shepard thought that this might be the time that Coze chose because he didn't want to go to war over these two things -
—If they are really Xie Yuan's nephews and nephews, and they know the relationship between Xie Yuan and themselves.
However, Shepard is still willing to work hard to reduce the possibility of conflict - once hostility begins, it will not be a good thing for himself, Xie Yuan, or even the harmony of human power.
Xie Yuan finally got an overview of the matter from conversations between several parties.
The cause of the matter came from the Illusive Man of Cerberus - he made a very detailed list of candidates for Shepard's new crew, which included many elites with different backgrounds, different forces and races, and possessing special skills.
Among the people recently selected, there is a very vicious criminal, Jack - this is a superpower user with outstanding talents among humans, who can use powerful shock waves that are beyond the normal superpowers. This man is imprisoned.
In Purgatory - a private prison contracted by Qingyang's regional governor Curiel, the prison is housed in a huge, space station-like spacecraft - which was originally an "ark" used to raise agricultural animals.
The prison itself is basically not equipped with spaceships for outgoing guests except for guest spaceships, so it is impossible for prisoners to get out after entering this place.
From the beginning, Cerberus had already negotiated a price with Curiel, the local Turian commander of the Inferno, and released Jack to serve him.
But after Shepard and others arrived at the Purgatory, the prison warden immediately changed his mind - and then Ada told Xie Yuan the real situation through a hidden earphone: before Xie Yuan and Ada attacked the Shadow Broker's ship
, the previous Shadow Broker had already bribed the prison warden Curiel.
The prison warden planned to detain Shepard directly and then auction it to interested parties, letting the highest bidder get it - but he underestimated Shepard's ability and determination to resist at all costs.
Not only did she quickly fight off the elites of the Qingyang security force, she also unlocked the entire security console and brought out Jack who was trapped in the cryopod.
After waking up from anesthesia, Jack was able to overload the confinement device with her powers even when she was pressed on the power suppressor - and then she was freed, which directly caused great turmoil.
Taking advantage of this situation, Shepard immediately got rid of the surveillance of the people around him, and then led a three-person team to immediately launch a counterattack based on the turmoil, and then released all the prisoners detained along the way, thus causing even greater turmoil.
In the end, prison warden Curiel died unexpectedly, and Jack, who had no choice but to look at the ship with the Cerberus logo, was full of resentment, but for the sake of freedom, he still obediently joined the team in the end.
After listening to Shepard's narration, the two brothers exchanged glances and then asked about Grunt.
Things are even simpler for the super krogan, because according to the Illusive Man's roster, they are ready to invite the former krogan warlord Aurore to join the team-this is also a powerful warrior.
But when they entered Qingyang's training planet, they found that Aurore had already made war with Qingyang's people. It turned out that Qingyang's people had also discovered Aurore's tendency to walk alone and were preparing to kill him in advance.
Then, not to be outdone, Aurore released some failed Krogan test subjects used for genetic experiments to deal with it.
The final result was that after the battle, the Qingyang mercenaries were repulsed and Aurore was poisoned to death. The only thing left was this one that had been carefully protected.
There are mutant krogan in the cultivation chamber.
Originally, Cerberus proposed to send this specially genetically modified krogan to their experimental facility - of course, he would never come back or survive.
However, as the captain of the Normandy, Shepard still awakened the mutant Krogan out of humanitarian considerations. After some "communication", the mutant Krogan was finally named "Grunt"
”, joined the Normandy.
"Well, the first thing is about the Purgatory issue. I can promise to end it here. Curiel cheated and broke his word, but he doesn't have the ability to bear the consequences of breaking his promise. He deserves to die."
Coates turned the page on the matter nonchalantly: "Jack, since you have already negotiated it before, it is yours—that's the end of it."
"However," Curze raised a smile, "I have some objections to Aurore's descendants."
"Grunt is an independent personality." Shepard disagreed a little, "He is not an accessory of one person, and I cannot make decisions for him."
"Then you only need to tell him one thing," Curze stood up and regained his huge figure. "This is a notice rather than a choice: after he completes his coming of age ceremony as a krogan, once he decides to go out,
Either he works under you or he works for the tribe, but if he wants to enter the industry, he can only work in Qingyang - if he dares to disobey me, I will remove his headgear!"
"This is unreasonable!" Shepard stood up, "Grunt is a free man, he has the right to make his own choices." "The cost of his cultivation and the venue all belong to Qingyang - except for his consciousness, his body also belongs to Qingyang.
It belongs to Qingyang, and I am the Lord of Qingyang.”
After saying that, Coze ignored Shepard and waved goodbye to Xie Yuan with Angron, and the two left the reception room directly.
"They regard you as their elder?" Shepard turned to look at Xie Yuan angrily, "Is this how you taught them? Using the big to bully the small?"
"Hey! Qingyang just took advantage of the two of them. Otherwise, if you did it to them twice, they wouldn't even dare to fart."
Xie Yuan felt that Shepard was making a bit of a fuss: "And what did they negotiate? Isn't it just that the last incident ends here, and Grunt can only find a job when he grows up! For my sake, they are all like this
You’ve restrained yourself, what else do you want?”
Shepard also knew that when this matter came up, as a leader of a force, this was quite a concession. They respected Shepard's position and the relationship behind it, and they respected the face of their elders.
When it came to force, Shepard estimated that he would be killed in three seconds.
She thought about it and guessed that the reason that made her so unhappy was that she suddenly found that she had no power to defend herself against these two little giants.
"You are their elder, why don't you let them go to a regular place to receive formal training?" Angrily, Shepard finally spread his anger on Xie Yuan.
Xie Yuan, who was scolded, was shocked and suddenly became happy: "Do you think there is someone in the world who can crush you all at once, making you feel unbalanced?"
Shepard was a little speechless and could only turn his head to answer.
"Actually, regardless of Kurtz, Angron is very powerful now," Xie Yuan's smile quickly turned into melancholy, "But in a sense, they are the same type of people as Grunt."
"Super-enhanced man? Dait, why haven't I heard any information at all?" After being enlightened, Shepard was also extremely puzzled.
"Before you discovered Grunt, had you heard any clues about this kind of thing?" Xie Yuan asked back.
"No." Shepard shook his head honestly, but soon began to argue, "But this is a human being..." "Can you really know everything about human beings?" Xie Yuan smiled back.
"Huh...that's right. If I could know everything, then I would be great." Shepard admitted this point with resignation.
But now that the two brothers' visit to seek advice is over, Shepard has to leave. Before leaving, she asked half-jokingly: "Where are you going after we leave? If it's too secretive, forget it." "That's right.
Nothing to hide
Hidden, we are not a platform for covert operations, the traces are semi-public." Xie Yuan didn't care much about this, "A human fringe colony in the World God Galaxy, it seems to be called Horizon or something, Ashley William
Ms. is there, and I'm going to pick her up—she's a member of this ship, too."
"Ashley didn't take the initiative to come to the Citadel to report to you?!" Shepard also gained experience, "Is she planning to disobey?"
If this is the case, Shepard would like to bring Ashley into her team...
"It would be great if that were the case." Xie Yuan glanced at Shepard and signaled not to think too much, "But in fact, Anderson sent her there just to install ground-based air defense equipment for the colony - and sent the Restoration to pick her up.
, and also has the idea of pacifying people's hearts."
"Okay!" Shepard didn't want to undermine her old boss's approach, and she also thought it was a way to kill two birds with one stone. "I wish you a safe journey."
"Hey!" Xie Yuan complained angrily, "There are a lot of places to go!"
