The welcome dinner for the head of the Galactic Federal Security Agency, Adrien Simon, and other officials was held in the palace of the Red Sun Empire, and the atmosphere of the dinner was very peaceful and harmonious. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In addition to Adrien and other federal officials who attended the banquet, there were also cabinet ministers and ministers related to the Red Sun Empire, of course, Queen Kate and the crown prince, but Lord Qin Xiangtian, the chief minister who was actually in power, was unable to come to the scene because he was entangled in the matter of interstellar pirates. A third of the way through the banquet, after a graceful dance was over, Queen Kate dragged her graceful and luxurious evening dress onto the podium under the gaze of everyone.
Queen Kate's face is painted with gorgeous makeup, coupled with her unique infectious smile, showing the demeanor of the first beauty of the empire vividly. The music died down, and with soft applause, Queen Kate bowed before she spoke, "Today, we have a very distinguished guest. His name has been resounding throughout the Federation decades ago, his deeds have been written in countless books, filmmakers have put it on the big screen countless times, and he has created indelible achievements for the prosperity of the Federation, leaving a strong mark on history. He was Sir Adrien Simon. ”
Queen Kate made a gesture of please with her right hand, and everyone's eyes were taken away from Queen Kate's beautiful face, which was enough to make all men crazy and all women jealous, and fell on Adrien, who was at the front of the banquet. Adrien stood up, turned to face the crowd and bowed, then sat back down. At this point, people's eyes are once again focused on Queen Kate.
Empress Kate and the others stopped applauding, and then said: "As we all know, not long ago, during the thousand-year independence anniversary of the Red Sun Empire, a very terrifying thing happened in the Empire. Justin Bergerow of the 3rd Military Region infiltrated the palace and killed the Emperor. Later, after investigation, it turned out that Justin was controlled by a strange creature in a parallel universe called Knox, which caused this heinous tragedy. After that, the empire formed an advance team to reconnoiter in the universe, and discovered a theoretical spatial rift between Canis Major and the ship's base. The existence of this spatial rift is a danger that cannot be ignored, whether it is for this star field or the entire galaxy universe. Moreover, we know almost nothing about the creatures of Knox, about their universe, about their civilization. In order to ensure the stability of the Galactic Federation, we have decided to escalate the matter to the Federation, and Ser Adrien Simon is here. ”
Queen Kate gestured to Adrien to invite him to the stage, and Adrien slowly stood up, bowed to the people behind him, and then walked up to the podium with Alan Wayne's support. Adrien kissed Queen Kate's hand very politely, and Queen Kate turned and stepped off the stage, leaving the place for Adrien. Adrien walked over to the microphone, and Alan took two steps back. Amid the applause, Adrien said, "Thank you, thank you. The applause then slowly stopped, "First of all, thank you for the praise of Her Majesty the beautiful Queen, which made me, a bad old man, a little embarrassed." The people in the audience laughed at Adrien's words.
Adrien continued: "When I was young, I did do some things that seemed bold, and these things did not have a bad effect on the Federation, but brought unexpected benefits, and now in retrospect, it really gives me a long sigh of relief!" The audience was amused by Adrien's humor again, "There was a country on the earth in ancient times, and they had a proverb that called heroes don't mention the courage of the past. This means that a person who has made a small contribution can't always show off those things so that others will think you're being immodest. So, I never mention what I do," Adrien paused for a moment before he said, "Anyway, someone will help me carry it!"
The audience laughed again, and a round of applause followed. Adrien stood on the stage, always with a well-timed smile on his face, and applause came and went, until Adrien raised his hand to signal, and everyone fell silent. Adrien coughed, took a breath and said, "After all these years, I've done some introspection. Reflecting on what I have done in the past, and then I have also gained a lot of inspiration and even truth from it, otherwise how could I have been mixed up now?" said Adrian, laughing himself, and another round of applause and laughter.
Adrien's mocking speech about his glorious history quickly drew the distance between him and everyone present, and soon left a good image in the hearts of everyone who was approachable, rather than the typical federal official with a stinky face as he had imagined. In just ten minutes of speech, Adrian's humor caused people to burst into laughter, and this joyous atmosphere continued until the end of the banquet.
After Adrien finished his joke, he slowly got to the point. He said: "When the Red Sun Empire received the report about the rift in space, the federal authorities were also very shocked. This is the first time since it was theoretically proven that parallel universes and high-dimensional spaces are real. This is not only a big leap forward in the development of physics, but it is foreseeable to have a profound and unpredictable impact on our civilization. However, as I said earlier, these effects are unpredictable. Unpredictability predicts uncertainty, and I believe that no one will like such words too much. ”
When Adrion mentioned the impact of the discovery of the spatial rift on the Galactic Federation, the atmosphere of the banquet became oppressive by the way, but fortunately, with the warm-up just now, the situation was not as bad as he expected, but there was no obvious worry on everyone's faces. Adrion wasn't sure if this was because he represented some kind of delusion on behalf of the Federation, or if the Red Sun Empire had indeed made full arrangements to minimize the impact of the alternate universe. All in all, neither scenario is what Adrien particularly wants to see. However, he was more inclined to the first possibility, after all, if the Red Sun Empire had developed enough to deal with the Knox parallel universe, it would be a big threat to the entire Federation. After all, the Printys family has unruly blood in their veins, just like Robert Plintys.
"Before I came, the Federal Supreme Academy of Sciences had already reacted to the matter. They decided to form a scientific expedition to make a scientific assessment of the space rift and determine whether there were hidden dangers in the space rift with reliable data. The second step is to try to enter the Knox universe through the spatial rift and make an assessment of that universe and its civilization. This is the latest news I got before I came. As for the federal military, there is no movement yet, and it is not for me, the little section chief of the Security Agency, to know about it. Actually, I'm here just for a simple research, to pave the way for their follow-up, after all, people are old, old people should do the things of old people, make way for those young talents, and the future federation will be a federation of young people, isn't it?"
After Adrien finished speaking, he bowed deeply and walked off the podium to the excited eyes and warm applause of everyone with the help of Alan Wayne. After Adrien came down, the prince walked up to the stage amid applause. The prince is not wearing much brightness today, just a simple black dress, which reflects the whole person solemnly and decently, and it is impossible to see that there is still a ten-year-old child in the dress.
"An interested old man!" the prince's opening remarks immediately sparked laughter from the ministers in the audience, including Adrien, who couldn't help but look at the young prince and the heir of the empire on the stage. "An old man full of philosophy, every word he said was like a hammer, hitting my head, making me suddenly burst open, and I began to think that the world is really interesting, there are so many interesting people, interesting things. ”
As the prince spoke, he couldn't stop nodding his head, "So, life is still very good." A good life brings people a good experience, a good memory, and a good enjoyment. The reason why we have such a good life is, on the one hand, the gift of nature, the gift of our galaxy universe, and the gift of the Creator. On the other hand, of course, we must not be presumptuous, and the efforts of our own hands are indispensable in a good life. It is because of our own wisdom that we have made the already colorful nature more colorful, and the establishment of permanent settlements on a desolate planet that is not suitable for the survival of life has made our horizons instantly expand beyond the originally unattainable scale of light years. All of this is thanks to us, the miracles we have created ourselves. ”
"It's like a piece of bread, a glass of milk. What a beautiful thing, but suddenly a person jumps out and wants to fight for them, this is something that no one can tolerate?" The prince changed his words and said: "We are not belligerent, but it does not mean that we can tolerate being bullied, we yearn for peace and joy, and all we do is to be able to keep our good life now, and a piece of bread and a glass of milk!"
The crown prince coughed, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "For this goal, we will continue to work hard!"
