Chapter 688 Peace and Survival, There Is a Price

Olaf prepared a grand Western-style dinner for the queen, princess, Eshara and his servants in the court of the Alexandria, and both the process and the specifications were according to the legendary royal dinner process. After all, it was a bit nondescript for him to preside over the state banquet in the East - although he felt that Western food was really not as flavorful as the state banquet at the last celebration.

During the dinner, Olaf did not mention the star map given by Her Majesty the Queen, and even the connected wars were rarely mentioned, he was more of an introduction to the customs and cuisine of the earth to the Queen and her party, and also temporarily acted as a promotion ambassador of the Blue Star, introducing the current development progress of the Blue Star and the progress of the United Academy to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"By the time His Highness arrived, it was estimated that the Wangxiang City would be almost complete, and now several communities had been built, and various facilities had begun to be laid. Your Highness, try this caviar, from my hometown. Olaf gestured eagerly.

Princess Ai Wen greeted with a smile and asked curiously, "Is Your Excellency the Commander from Caspian Sea?" ”

"Yes, I didn't expect His Highness to know so much about the earth."

Ai Wen smiled sweetly: "I have learned a little bit of your geography. ”

"Well, the prosperity of mankind in the last few hundred years has come from the Age of Discovery, and now we are out of the earth and heading towards the stars, which can be regarded as a new voyage." Olaf walked like an elegant scholar and said with a smile: "Has Your Highness understood this history of mankind?" ”

"I just heard the teacher mention it, but I haven't had time to understand it yet." Ai Wen's eyes showed yearning, and there was a slight trace of regret: "The human knowledge system is too huge, I estimate that I can't finish learning until I die." ”

Olaf laughed: "Except for your teacher, no one dares to call him an all-rounder, and even if you are a teacher, he is not involved in the field of humanities and social sciences, for example, he does not know music." ”

Ai Wen smiled when she heard this.

In the communication with the teacher, she sometimes secretly raised the idea of offering treasure and played the harp for the teacher, but no matter how proficient she was in the music, the teacher would only praise her, and it was very sincere rather than perfunctory at first glance - this means that the teacher is indeed a music layman.

"Come, Your Majesty, Your Excellency the Governor, and taste this ham that has traveled thousands of light-years......"

The dinner ended in a relaxed and happy atmosphere, which also meant that the Queen's trip for the day came to an end.

Although she was still unsatisfied, Aiwen had to follow her mother back to the landing capsule and slowly leave the Alexander with a smile and a wave of Olaf's smile.

On the way back, the queen sat next to Ai Wen, looking at the girl who was reluctant to leave, the queen's brows furrowed slightly: "Ai Wen." ”

"Mother." Ai Wen immediately withdrew her gaze from the Alexander and looked at the queen: "We can have such a battleship, right?" ”

As she spoke, Ai Wen looked at Governor Aishara who was one position away: "Aunt Sa, the flagship of the human race is much better than yours...... Aren't you tempted? ”

Aishara glanced at the queen without leaving a trace, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Your Highness, no matter how good the flagship is, it is also used for war." If we really want the comfort of a human flagship, we can build a non-combat ship that is equally comfortable. ”

Ai Wen shook her head and said: "That's different, on a rainy day, there is no umbrella and no umbrella is two concepts." ”

The queen had been staring at Ai Wen, and at this time, seeing that she was getting more and more energetic as she spoke, she finally couldn't help but increase her tone: "Where did you get this theory?" Human? ”

"Uh......" Ai Wen saw that her mother was showing signs of anger, and she immediately bowed her head obediently: "The teacher said that this is a very famous sentence of human beings - I think it is very right." ”

The queen was speechless for a moment, and after a moment she and Azhara looked at each other, and a look of helplessness rose in their eyes.

After a few seconds of silence, the queen said softly, "It does make sense, but Ai Wen, I don't know if you've heard such a sentence." ”

"What?"

The queen looked at Ai Wen, the expression on her face gradually became serious, and her voice became a little more stern: "You already know that in this universe, energy and matter are equivalent. So...... You should be able to understand that any gift of fate has already been marked with a price. ”

Ai Wen looked at her mother a little nervouslyβ€”she vaguely understood the meaning of the latter sentence, but she didn't understand what it had to do with the teacher's conversation with herself. She only knew that her mother's attitude was very strict now, so what she said must be extremely important.

After another silence, the queen continued: "Ai Wen, have you considered how our people and our civilization should survive and continue in this universe in the future? ”

"It's not...... Is there a mother? ”

"I'll return to my home planet one day." The queen looked at the girl and said lightly: "Sooner or later, you will have to take on this responsibility." ”

Ai Wen immediately stopped talkingβ€”though she wanted to say that there was no king in the teacher's country, and there was no ruler in human civilization.

"You go to the academy opened by human beings to understand human society, human thoughts; Learn human knowledge, human technology. Rather than treating humans as objects of imitation. The queen looked at Ai Wen: "Although we have to learn from human beings because of historical reasons, you must not forget that what gave birth to you is a great civilization that has existed in the universe for millions of years and has footprints all over the entire galaxy!" ”

"You should have your own pride and not be blinded by human power. Do you understand? ”

Ai Wen pursed her lips, took a few deep breaths, and nodded heavily.

The queen slowly put away her sternness, and after a moment, she shook her head, and then looked at Eshara beside her, "Essa, do you think humans will conquer all the way to the Executor base?" ”

"I believe that human beings have this desire." Aishara thought for a few seconds and then said softly, "But for now, their strength should not be enoughβ€”they can adopt the tactic of holding the wormhole to annihilate the teleported fleet, and the executor can also use this tactic." ”

Saying that, Aishara paused: "From the moment the human race began its counteroffensive, it was no longer the sanction action of the executors, but the war of the emerging civilization of the human race against a huge empire. Even though human beings have powerful industrial capabilities, powerful AI, and ...... A forbidden technology that will be broken at all costs, but the sacred civilization ......"

Aishara couldn't help but shake her head: "With the strength of their current fleet, there is no problem in holding the Dekka system, but once the executor dispatches the super battleship...... That...... It is also difficult for them to go further. The greatest possibility is that humanity will use the existing resources to fight a war with the executor for hundreds or even more years, until one side emerges with technology that will change the entire situation of the war. ”

The queen closed her eyes and nodded slowly.

- This is their judgment of the future situation.

Needless to say, the power of humanity has far exceeded their imagination, and after passing the assessment, the Silvermoon Kingdom has gained a complete consensus that it may be difficult for humans to defeat the Executor Legion, but there is no problem in holding the existing galaxy.

Then as the Silver Moon Kingdom within the human defense line, there is no longer any suspense about which side it should stand on.

"You'd better be prepared, and if we can get our hands on the human flagship, we'll support them."

Hearing this, Aishara was stunned, and incredulity suddenly rose in her eyes: "Your Majesty...... Are we going to be fully involved? ”

"Do you think the Legion of Executors can really keep the ancient pact?" The queen slowly opened her eyes with a hint of anger and helplessness in her eyes: "They have made a request for us to attack the Tara fleet. ”

Aishara took a deep breath and immediately stopped talking.

"Ai Wen, any gift of fate has already been marked with a price - in this sentence, it also includes peace and survival."

……

……

Ella Star, Executor Base.

A massive warship is preparing to pass through the inducing wormhole – Hall's flagship.

Hale had locked himself in his room since the last meeting.

On the one hand, he needs to submit a report, and on the other hand, he also needs to do a thorough data collation of the entire galaxy 31 - to be precise, the galaxies that humanity currently influences, in order to connect the reasons why such a powerful civilization has developed in an isolated galaxy.

When the report was submitted, as expected, he was immediately questioned by the hearing and said that an inspection team of three hearing members would be sent to the base to inspect it.

Upon receiving this message, Hale immediately replied, saying that he was not at the Executor base, but was inspecting the ship's production line in the Frost System.

Are you kidding...... If those guys were to come to the base, they might be doing some kind of messy investigation in the base - if nothing else, the Kat criminal slave girls that Dika guy did would be enough to make them drink a pot.

- The head of the investigation team is Liana, who, despite being Hall's classmate, is also an out-and-out Sumaya, and is known for protecting the criminal race under the banner of "high-intelligence racial diversity".

Soon, Hall ascended the flagship and traveled to the Frost Galaxy via the Induced Wormhole.

And then...... As soon as he crossed the wormhole, he received a message from Liana.

"Yo, Mr. CEO, have you just arrived, or have you returned to your base to go to the toilet in your busy schedule?"

Hall ripped off his headphones and looked out the porthole.

I saw that in front of the inducing wormhole, a spaceship painted in silver and white was already waiting quietly.

"Damn...... You're coming so fast? ”

"We're all on board when I'm sending you a message, let's go, Space City is waiting for you."

Liana's voice fell, and the silver spaceship, which was originally used for scientific research, was like a light fallen leaf, slowly flying towards the space city that stood quietly above the far-earth orbit of the Frost Star in an elegant manner.

The space city was built on the basis of a spacedock, and started out as a factory, but as it continued to expand, and the Governor of Frost Star got tired of life on the surface - mainly because the gravity on Froststar's surface made it difficult for him to move, so he moved the Governor's Palace.

Frost Star, the habitable parent star of the Frost Galaxy, had a primitive and backward civilization tens of thousands of years ago, and after the "enlightenment" of Sumaya, the civilization of the galaxy successfully entered the space civilization. Later, the Executor Legion was formed, and the civilization happened to be next door to the Executor Base 31, so it was logical that the civilization became a servant civilization of the Divine Civilization.

After all, this civilization has seen the overwhelming array of warships of the Holy Legion.

Now that 10,000 years have passed, the surface civilization of the Frost Star has been highly developed, and even in space, you can see the side of the sun shining brightly.

Hall's flagship slowly sailed into the dock.

When the hatch opened and he stepped onto the icy ground, three Imperials who had maintained their excellent stature appeared in front of him.

"Anna." Hall strode over to the woman standing in the center - she was about 1.8 meters tall, convex and backward, very slender, wearing a neat uniform, wearing a small oval hat with white and blue stripes, and her long dark blonde hair was coiled behind her head, looking heroic.

In comparison, Hall's figure is simply ......

"Slow down." Liana raised her eyebrows and immediately said, "I can't stand you - to introduce you, this is Grena, this is Croze." ”

Hall stopped a meter in front of the trio, put his right hand behind his waist, and saluted the trio.

The three of them saluted at the same time, but there was no expression on their faces.

After all, the three of them are here to investigate the eighth-level incident, not to chat and pull relationships.

"Where's the brandy?" Hall walked with the three of them to the location of the teleportation car, looked around and asked, "Isn't it a bit too much for him, the governor, not to come forward to greet you?" ”

"To the ground, didn't you say you were here to inspect? You come and ask me? ”

"Hey......

"Is there something unsightly in your base?"

"How could there be, no!"

"Well, I'm going to go to the base anyway, and I'll know when the time comes."

While speaking, the four of them got into the car and soon arrived at the center of Space City.

There are already a lot of native engineers from Frost - they are all small, less than 1.6 meters, and they are clearly recognizable by their size.

After meeting the four noble Imperial people, these native engineers prostrated themselves on the ground and paid their most heartfelt respect to the emissaries from the Holy Empire.

Soon, the four of them entered the most noble hotel in Space City.

Under the service of the indigenous waiter, the four of them sat in phase change chairs around an oval desk.

"Tell me, what kind of civilization is that, and what taboo has been touched that requires you to perform an eighth-level event?"

Liana sat in the center, flipping through the pages of a quaint book in her hands, her golden pen jumping happily at her fingertips.

"And, according to the records that have been made, that civilization once sent you a handshake message."

Liana stared at Hall, her expression gradually becoming serious: "The civilization of taking the initiative to shake hands should be carefully implemented, you don't need me to remind you, right?" ”
