Chapter II: Territories
Qin Feng walked to the console in the control room of the stargate ship, and saw that there were two prominent positions on the console, one was obviously a groove inserted into the control body, the other was a circular depression, and there were two deeper depressions next to it, which were the same shape as those on the outer wall of the ship where Qin Feng entered.
"What do you command?" A sharp mechanical sound sounded abruptly.
"I need some information, I wonder if you can provide it here?" Qin Feng said.
"Space Tunnel 2781 requests confirmation of your clearance?"
"How do I confirm?"
"Please insert/insert a control body with direct control privileges or a higher level of spatial vein."
Qin Feng vaguely felt that this scene was very familiar, as if it had happened somewhere? Why is it so similar to the original authorization on the Xingti?
Control body, this Qin Feng understands, he has also made one on the Xingti before, but what is a spatial dense pattern?
"I don't have a control body, what can I do?"
"Please place your left hand with spatial density on the console identification area."
The reminder of the control system immediately made Qin Feng understand that this was for him to use his own colonization to identify. He was right to think about it, the Void Worm's colonization is also the Protoss armament, which is the best identification code for the Protoss, each Protoss is different, and before Qin Feng, only the Protoss had it, and it also had spatial characteristics, and it was not an exaggeration to be used by the Protoss as a spatial dense pattern.
Qin Feng put his left hand on the identification area, let the bracelet stretch out two tentacles and insert them into the recesses on both sides, and immediately the voice of the control system sounded: "My lord, it has been confirmed that you have the ability to have advanced spatial dense patterns, may I ask what information do you need?" β
"Do you have any technical information on the construction and maintenance of the Stargate here? Or the technical information of the space channel? Qin Feng said.
"I'm sorry, my lord, Space Channel 2781 is a lower-level space transmission channel, and there is no storage of Stargate ship construction materials, nor is there any technical information of space channels, if you need it, you can ask the mothership for it."
"Oh, forget it." Qin Feng was a little disappointed, the risk of connecting to the Protoss mothership was too high, at least not something that Qin Feng could afford now.
"Space Passage 2781 only has the technical information for the maintenance of this group of starships, do you need it?"
"Okay, you copy it to me." The system's words made Qin Feng finally not return empty-handed, "Do you have a nearby star map here?" β
"There is a complete map of Star Sector VII, and a map of the location of star fields near the boundary between Sector VI and Region VIII."
"You will copy the star map to me as well."
"Wait, my lord, I'll make a storage body for my lord."
After a while, a card tray popped up on the console, and there was a white polyprismatic pyramid crystal in it, which was what the system called the storage body, and Qin Feng reached out and grabbed it in his hand.
"For the sake of secrecy and security, please remove all traces of my arrival and send me back." Qin Feng commanded the system.
"Okay, removing traces of your arrival."
"Please follow the instructions." After a while, Qin Feng appeared in the recess of the outer bulkhead of the stargate ship again, and he stepped out of the stargate ship.
The outer wall of the stargate ship slowly returned to its original appearance.
Qin Feng didn't let Xingti invade the stargate ship system during the whole process, because the stargate ship was likely to be connected to the Protoss mothership or the star sector controller, and once intruded, it might cause the vigilance of these systems and lead to exposure.
When Qin Feng returned to Xingti, he handed over his storage body to Xingti for study. He ordered the fleet to set off and continue its march towards Nariq's territory.
Qin Feng came to Narik's cabin, and Narik hurriedly came over and asked, "I wonder what the results of the adults' research on the stargate ship are?" β
"Hey, let alone research, I haven't even found the hatch to enter." Qin Feng said with a sigh.
"Yes, my lord, I organized personnel to study this group of stargate ships after they were bought, but as my lord said, I didn't even find a hatch, and I couldn't get any information at all."
"The technology of the Protoss is really powerful, far exceeding the power of this world." Narik sighed.
"Narik, a question for you?"
"Your Excellency, please speak."
"Why did you take refuge in the Protoss in the first place? After this period of contact, I don't think you are as greedy and ruthless as rumored. β
Narik said helplessly, "My lord doesn't know, the lord seems to be very beautiful, with his own territory, in the original Doros Empire, the imperial court did not prohibit conquest between territories, the friction between lords ensured the blood and vitality of the empire, but for some small territories and powerless lords without heirs, it was extremely cruel." β
"I'm just a small viscount, and my territory is not very large, this is the reward I received with the imperial court when I was young, I have no heirs in my life, and the empire may take back my title and territory after my death."
"I don't want my people to be auctioned off and brutally exploited by another lord, my life's continuous development is to expand, to ensure that the territory is strong, and whoever obtains it will treat it with a better attitude."
Narik sighed deeply.
"On both sides of my territory are two larger territories with deep backgrounds, and the lords are all descendants of the wealthy families of the imperial capital, whether it is the Cold Moon Territory or the Chik Territory."
"The reason why I took refuge in the Protoss is also to keep the territory and not let the Protoss have an excuse to wash the territory in blood. At this point, the Protoss is much stronger than the empire and other nobles. β
"Of course, the fate of the rebellion against the Protoss is also very tragic, the Protoss has almost killed 30% of the population of this world in just over thirty years, which has suppressed the resistance, just to quell the rebellion of the Protoss has destroyed thousands of habitable stars, and even the planets have been blown up."
"It's something I can't compete with in a small territory."
"Then what did the Protoss ask you to do after you took refuge? Is it a need for supplies or what? β
"The Protoss doesn't actually ask for anything from the outside world as rumored to be attached to the races and dependent territories, and they don't need the population or anything, but they only occasionally select some people to mine, and the requirements are higher. As for the materials, they don't want a lot, the Protoss has developed technology, and what they need can be mined by themselves. The only thing is that you can't develop more armed forces. β
Qin Feng is right to think about it, the Protoss is said to have only a few hundred people, and the resources of a river system supply these people, and there will be almost nothing missing, judging from the technology of an ordinary stargate ship, or the Xingti ten years ago, the technology of the Protoss is indeed much ahead of this world.
Isn't it true that the Star Ti was originally mined?
"To this world, the Protoss is certainly an intruder or an invader, but their way of life and form are no different from those of human beings. Although it has had a huge impact on the world or the humans of this river system to a certain extent, it has also brought more advanced technology, which has allowed human beings to stagnate for thousands of years and even tens of thousands of years to develop. β
"At least now there are almost no empires in the core star region of the river system, and they are basically under the rule of the Protoss, which can be regarded as a larger empire."
Everyone may stand from a different angle, but Qin Feng still thinks that this Narik is very capable and knowledgeable, at least in some aspects, he still agrees with Narik's statement, although he still resists the brutality of the Protoss in his heart, but which interstellar ruler is not like this.
But for this universe where the law of the jungle applies, he can't say anything, and he himself just wants to lead his legion to survive.
"Have you ever been in contact with the Protoss?" Qin Feng asked.
"I've only been in contact with the divine envoy of this star region, that is, the master of the god race, Mith, he is quite gentle, and he does not interfere too much in the development of the territory of the star region, although he is a little greedy for money, in fact, those treasures do not mean much to him."
"Oh? How so? β
"For him, the territory can't be directly managed, it's just a formality, or it's ruled by the original lord or successor, and the ordinary materials and property gods don't seem to care."
"And what do they need?"
"As far as I know, they care more about the rarer mineral crystals in this world." Narik said.
Qin Feng knew clearly, the Protoss didn't care, it was needed! Battleships, armaments are needed.
"You don't have an heir, so you should have the heir to your territory, right?" Qin Feng was very curious, "I see that you are in good health, how can you not have an heir?" β
This question made Narik's expression a little resentful, "My lord doesn't know, in the early years, when I was fighting with the imperial court, my wife was favored by a noble child in the imperial capital, which led to her death. Later, after I gained the territory, I did not marry again, where will I have children. β
"The heir to the current realm is my nephew, an unsuccessful fellow."
"I heard you want to marry Elise from the Cold Moon Territory?" Qin Feng's words made Narik a little embarrassed.
"Ahem...... my lord, I was just trying to get the construction technology of Star City, I'm so old, what's the use of marrying me?"

"Narik, you don't look very old, don't you, besides, people in this world have a long lifespan." Qin Feng saw that Narik was embarrassed and changed the subject, "This time you failed to conquer Star City and lost so many warships, will it have any impact on your rule?" β
Qin Feng asked a question that had been giving Narik a headache, and Narik was silent for a long time before he said, "My lord, the situation you said does exist. β
"It's okay to say that the external pressure is all under the management of the masters of the Protoss Star Sector, and the lords of the general territory will not rashly attack my territory, but it is difficult to say internally, which is exactly what I am worried about."
"It's okay on weekdays, but now those little nobles or side families who are about to move will definitely be stabbed in the back."
Seeing that Narik was a little lonely, Qin Feng didn't say anything, it seemed that Narik was not as beautiful as he had imagined before.
The fleet slowly approached the capital star of Narik's territory, and it could be seen from the light screen that the capital star was constantly getting bigger. Qin Feng asked the fleet to slow down so that it could dock at the airport outside the planet, otherwise it would be accelerated by such a massive planet.
