Keha, Augustgrad, Royal Palace.

This magnificent Imperial Palace was the habitat of the Imperial Führer Mengsk, and from the top of the palace you can see most of Augustgrad. When Valerian left Keha to join the Rangers, he also lived in the palace, along with his father, whom he despised.

It's just that in the room on the top floor of the palace, it was not Mengsk sitting on a chair at this time, but the commander of a certain fleet.

He sat at the table full of surveillance screens, shaking his glass of red wine that had bottomed out, and looked thoughtfully at the large and small surveillance screens that filled almost the entire wall.

"It's not easy to see you, Your Excellency." The woman's voice came to his ears from behind him. He didn't hear the sound of a door opening, and the owner of this voice probably broke into his private house in defiance of the Civil Code, but he didn't have the idea of calling the guards immediately.

"I wonder why you didn't attend yesterday's coronation." He turned his back to the lady and continued to gently shake the wine glass in his hand, "I guess I watched the whole ceremony in a VIP seat, right?" ”

"I don't want to take any strange looks, it's much better to look at your empty new 'bridge'." The woman didn't seem to care at all about the slight displeasure in his words, "So...... How does it feel to be on the top? It always feels like you're not very excited. ”

"Honestly, it's hard to say. I can now appreciate the hard years of His Majesty Mengsk's founding of the empire, there are so many things to deal with, even with the help of those girls, they are still too busy......"

"But I see that you are quite idle now, and you still have time to stare at the surveillance screen of the palace non-stop."

"I'm just trying to learn the hobby of the previous emperor, and I feel ...... Okay, at least if the monitor screen were replaced by my favorite streamer's live streamer, I could probably sit here for a year......"

"Poof." The woman couldn't help but smile, "Hasn't you changed this habit yet?" After so many years and so many things, do you still want this kind of life of being old and old? ”

"That's called life, okay? What kind of life did I live before? In order to earn money to eat, I risked my life to run around, and I played all the jobs I could in the entire star sector, just for the commission in the hands of my employer...... Later, I said that I couldn't go on like this, and ran to join the Rangers to fight them all over the world, only to find that the Rangers themselves were almost out of the pot...... I had to run out to be an interstellar pirate again, and after the Agrea incident, I somehow had an extra piece of land of my own, so that I could finally eat, and then there were all kinds of messy things, and I had to run around for this again, and sometimes I thought that it would be good for me to be a travel streamer, 'the first human to set foot in Urnah', 'Shocked!' Nairazim's home planet, Sakulas, turned out to be like this! I can probably make a lot of money ...... that."

"And now inexplicably becoming the Emperor? I'm guessing your next sentence is fate to make people, right? ”

"No, no, no, I don't have that culture to say such advanced sentences." He stretched out his glass and shook it at the woman behind him, "I just want to say that fate is really *****...... Either way, today isn't a day to complain about...... On the contrary, I would love to know, why are you coming to me today...... Normally, I don't even want to see you. ”

The woman did not answer, and the woman was not visible on the surveillance screen, as if she did not exist at all.

In the dead silence, he let out a long sigh, as if to pour out all the dissatisfaction and helplessness in his chest.

“…… You're going to call me back, aren't you? ”

"It's better that there's no point in staying any longer." The woman's voice seemed a little nonchalant, "But, I guess you're probably going to leave for a while, right?" ”

"Uh-huh, I've only been the emperor for a few days, so let me enjoy it...... Besides, I haven't found it yet—"

"You know you can't find it, right?" The woman interrupted him and mercilessly debunked his lies, "Like I said, there's no point in staying any longer, it's better to-"

"Okay, okay, why do you like to urge people like an old mother now. I'm definitely going back, but not today, and not tomorrow...... At least until I rebuild this long-suffering empire, right? ”

The woman didn't say anything more, but stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, then turned and left the room.

"Hmph...... Troublesome fellow......" he snorted softly, muttering to himself.

As silence returned to the room, he turned his attention back to the surveillance screen, gently shaking the glass of red wine in his hand, and continued to think about what others did not know.

“…… When is the head? ”

By the time the soft LED light filled his field of vision, it was already the next day. Yang Yi found that he had woken up from the captain's room in A1.

Although it was another unknown dream, at least this time he slept for a much shorter time. He rubbed his pounding temples, got out of bed with some difficulty, and barely stood up on the bedside table.

"Uh...... Damn it. Every time he fell asleep and woke up, his head would thump, and he would have to slow down for a while to recover, and he didn't know if his head would blow up directly the next time or the next time he fused with the ship.

"Hmm......" Suddenly, he felt a cool feeling from his eyebrows, which rushed into his brain in an instant. Before he could react, he suddenly felt that his headache had been alleviated to a great extent in an instant, and it even seemed as if it didn't exist.

He touched his brow a little dazedly, it was the lightning rune that the system had branded on him, it felt like a certain magician, but it was actually used to replace the Protoss nerve bundle, to connect him to Kara's existence. It's just that he can always feel that the spiritual energy in his body also likes to gather around this rune of his own, so every time he uses the spiritual energy, not only his eyes will glow blue, but the rune in his eyebrows will also flash blue light.

"That's ...... Psionic healing? ”

He didn't know how it worked, but at least it did ease his pain a little and make him more conscious. He looked around and couldn't find any equipment that could contact the bridge, so he could only calm down and contact his ship's mother through the command network.

"A1, are you there?"

"Ahh Commander! Are you awake? ”

"Well, where are you?"

"I'm in the communications center of this deep space station, where our people have made some new discoveries. Your new research ship and I are trying to hack into the database, if you're okay, you can come down and take a look, we've restarted the entire station, you can take a transport ship if you need to. ”

"Discovery? Okay, I'll be right over. ”
