Keha IV, the restaurant of the Doge's Palace.
"You'd better let go of that unrealistic idea."
"It's not just what you approve of is called 'actual'."
"You'll regret it."
"We'll see."
“……”
After two words of persuasion, Actulus suddenly found that this seemed to be the conversation he had with his father before he went to the federal border alone to join the mercenaries despite his father's objections, and the content was completely the same except for some changes in his name.
The old man is too vindictive...... He silently shut his mouth and began to think of words that did not belong to the argument and would convince his father.
"Don't say a word, it's rare for my son to come back, and it's his birthday, what do you have to fight over at the dinner table?" Sitting beside Actuls, dressed in a beige velvet jacket and royal blue dress, with black hair and brown eyes, the gentle lady tapped the table with her knuckles in dissatisfaction, and succeeded in causing the two men to stop their childish stare at each other and pick up their utensils.
Sara Mengsk, Angus's wife, Arcturus and Amir's mother, who, although in her fifties, is well maintained, went out to say that it was Amir's sister...... Probably half of them will believe it.
She and Angus are very rare examples of the first generation of leaders combining with each other, after all, at that time, humanity was facing a brand-new, undeveloped star field, which could become "above ten thousand people", and who wanted to be "under one person".
Arcturus can only guess what kind of love story happened when his parents were piloting the immigrant ship in subspace, but there is no way for the son to ask about this kind of thing, and can only analyze it from the little points revealed when they chat.
What is known is that the parents do not seem to belong to the crew who woke up at the same time, and the father fell in love with his mother's sleeping face at first sight during the time he was on duty, and finally contacted her by leaving a message, and after experiencing some other crises and providing each other with help across time, they finally confirmed each other's hearts, and then, they each secretly submitted an application to the spaceship host to adjust their waking time to the other's waking time, wanting to surprise each other, and the result was perfectly staggered......
Since this application could only be submitted once, and if it weren't for the fact that the ship had left the subspace so soon afterward, Arcturus and Amir would not have had a chance to be born.
Thinking of Amir, Arcturus turned his head to look at her, and sure enough, the naughty and cute sister was munching on rice, no different from when he left home a year ago.
As expected, when she finally eats, she will be stunned for a moment at her own "results", and then mumble two ridiculous statements such as "it's not my fault for eating so much".
"Father, have you ever thought about this," After his thoughts circled around the family and his family for a few times, Actturus thought of a new reason: "This side of the Emma Star Domain is too close to the Federation Capital Star, and many officials and even generals are inextricably linked to that side, what if they turn against each other?" ”
"So it's just a 'draft,'" Angus dismissed: "I've already presented it in a closed-door meeting and observed the reactions of the participants, and those who are adamantly opposed will be redeployed and those who hesitate to take a stand will be marginalized, but in any case, their whereabouts and communications are under my surveillance to make sure that the contents of the plan are not leaked before it begins." ”
"And what about after the announcement? The Federation's fleet only needs two 'jumps' to get here. Arcturus thinks this is blind optimism.
The so-called "jump" is a derivative of the "stargate" technology copied by the Tyranid Federation from the pioneer civilization "Ute", the act of a spaceship or fleet reaching another galaxy through a "stargate" in a galaxy is called "one jump", and important locations in the galaxy are reached through the "acceleration orbit" from the cottage, and finally the "warp engine" technology owned by the spacecraft itself.
Although the "stargate" that cannot change the state can only be used to "jump" between galaxies, the "acceleration orbit", a technology that is a human copycat, can be edited to the destination, and most of the pirates hiding in the Federation use similar means to hide in the place called "dead space", after all, the entire star area is so large that no one can fully explore every space in the universe.
In other words, the Keha system is only two galaxies away from Startera, the capital of the Tyranid Federation, and if it is fast enough, after his father declares independence, Keha IV will be blocked by thousands of Federation warships within a week, and it will be up to others to kill or chop it up.
"Well, it seems that you really don't have much experience in large corps combat," Angus nodded and shook his head: "Do you think that I will put the enemy's fleet in and then play battleship bombardment with them?" ”
“…… So? Arcturus imagined that he couldn't for a moment, so he took a sip of lemon juice: "Theoretically, we should control the throat passage, but we can't affect the stargate at all, can we?" ”
"'Warp Jump Scrambler'," Angus began to cut the lamb chops in front of him, "Although this thing can't affect the stargate, it is enough to turn those stupid Federation fleets that crashed headlong into snails, plus lock jamming and absorb electricity, the Keha fleet can wipe them all out without injury, heh, in terms of how to deal with their own kind, human beings have always been the best." ”
"Hmmmm......" Because he touched on Arcturs's knowledge blind spot, he was unable to make an effective evaluation for a while.
"Don't blame your father, I also agree to this plan to break away from the Federation." Sarah spoke.
"What?" The impression that his mother, who was completely indifferent to politics, would say such a thing came to Arcturs' surprise.
"Clones, you know," Sarah put down the utensils: "At the beginning, in order to pioneer and develop the planet, there was no way to clon a large number of people, but the generals at that time were also cloned from the gene pool, so they didn't use the clone soldiers as tools at all, and many of the famous legions at that time still maintained their formation, but after the second and third generations, they thought they were' Pure-bred human beings', the argument that clones should serve themselves has appeared, maybe they don't dare to do anything to the older generation, the clones with meritorious deeds, but they are not polite to the newly 'born' clones, and the worst thing is that the gene provider clones of themselves, you may not know at the border, there have been several cases of gene providers killing their own clones at will, or brutally oppressing them, and the result is ...... He was acquitted because he killed himself and pressed himself. ”
"This ......" Arcturus was shocked, although he knew that the grassroots soldiers of the Federation were clones, he had never thought about their treatment.
"These idiots," Angus continued, "If they continue like this, the clones with a large population base will inevitably be forced to rebel or revolt, and as a system that has always been kind to clones, I don't want to be involved here, although it is not written in the draft, but when it is announced, I will also declare that all clones in Keha will be civilized, and their relationship with the gene provider will be characterized as paternity rather than object and owner." ”
Father, this is not a galaxy independence, it is completely roasted on the fire of the Federation......
"But, no matter what, Keha is in a position deep into the Emma Domain, and even if the Federation doesn't send a fleet to attack, it's troublesome to just keep sending some assassins to carry out decapitation operations." Arcturus was not so much against it at this point as he was making up for the plan.
"Hah!" Angus smiled heroically: "Then let them see if my saber is good or not!" ”
"Huh? Where is the saber (Saber)? Emile rolled his eyes and looked around.
