The Bahram family has ten flagships that represent the ten incarnations of the god of war.

Naturally, Helios had a similar flagship, and its name is obvious, the Greek god Helios rode in a sun chariot to bring light and heat to the earth from east to west.

And the name of this ship, naturally, is also called the solar ship.

It was a 10,000-meter-long ship, with the rest of the ships carrying antimatter reactors, which contained miniature black holes and six antimatter reactors feeding six engines at the same time.

The design idea of the classic Maozi is a big flying brick.

It was a power monster, with the most powerful Helios field in the galaxy, and it could survive even the indiscriminate bombardment of several fleets.

Inside, there are thousands of fighters guarding the center.

In particular, it can release super-heavy particle black hole bullets, can create a black-like hole out of thin air, not to mention the thousands of all-round hack cannons around it, which integrates destruction, defense, and speed.

It is the palace of Helios.

It was also this ship that they drove to Cangxing at the beginning, but unfortunately it was difficult to beat four hands with two fists, and they didn't have time to go up.

If this ship had Star Trek's quantum teleportation technology, his father might not have died.

Although Fenrir was not around, this ship could also ensure the safety of Xia Lian's navigation, and most pirates would turn around and run away when they saw this kind of ship.

Since it is an invitation from the Imperial side, the starship can jump directly to the capital through the wormhole.

The capital of the empire was called the Joan of Arc Astrolabe, and it was a man-made land warship with a round sky.

With an area of 8 million square kilometers, it is quite a prosperous city.

Due to the continuous expansion of the empire, the capital will sometimes have to be moved, and the mobile capital will also be more secure and will not be raided by the Shalian like the Duchy of Bahram.

It costs roughly as much as the GDP of ten galaxies combined.

Countless merchant ships circulated through it, and as the core of the empire, this small area had a total economic value far greater than that of any other planet.

But the most terrifying thing is the warships docked on the planets around this galaxy, 10,000-meter-long battleships can be seen everywhere, and thousands of meter-long starships have become frigates.

The muzzles that glowed in the sunlight showed their elite.

The Empire has the most powerful army in the known galaxy, which is why it is an Empire.

If the Empire wants to attack either a Star Sea or a new Federation, the other nation will immediately ally itself with that country and choose to work together against the Empire.

Because they all know the truth of cold lips and teeth.

The Solar Ship docked at the VIP harbor of the Joan of Arc Astrolabe, and instead of disembarking, he sat in his office at the top of the starship.

After about a few dozen minutes, a waiter in a tuxedo was brought in by Helios' soldiers.

He bowed respectfully to Xia Lian.

"Dear Duke Helios, I am the Minister of General Affairs of the Empire, clean your teeth.

Welcome to your arrival.

Your room in the palace, we have already packed up, tomorrow evening at half past seven, it is the time for the banquet to officially begin.

Need me to take you to your room first? ”

"Since the banquet will start tomorrow, then my stay here is the same as staying in the palace." Xia Lian said.

"I see, I respect your opinion. ”

"Am I the only one who arrived first?"

"There are a few more Grand Dukes who will stop here in about half an hour."

Xia Lian nodded, "I understand, I don't have any other needs, you go and get busy with yours." ”

"Yes, if you have any needs, you can let us know and we will try to solve it for you."

With that, he left the place.

Xia Lian was silent, he turned his head and looked at the bustling city through the floor-to-ceiling window projected by the virtual projection on one side, and fell into deep thought.

The Great Emperor, who had lived for hundreds of years, had stood the test of time in terms of means and schemes, and he would be unlike any enemy Xia Lian had ever faced.

If he could, Xia Lian would wait for himself to have confidence before facing this emperor.

At least let's get the four Death Shadows in shape.

But everything doesn't always go well in this world, so Xia Lian is very calm now.

Speaking of which, he still has a buff that has not yet been fulfilled, and if that queen is really the "most beautiful person in the world", it is not a bad thing to contact it in advance.

He took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

"Huck." Xia Lian called out a name.

A few minutes later, the captain of the solar ship walked in.

It was a somewhat Middle Eastern Arab-looking man, with a meticulously groomed beard.

"Grand Duke."

"Send someone to investigate the number of starships in the imperial capital, and whether there are any starships rushing here these days."

"Yes."

....

For a day and a night, there seemed to be no obvious change in this imperial capital, and the flow of people, merchant ships, and people still came and went.

The only difference is that with the loss of time, the seventy-eight grand dukes of the entire empire and the more important nobles have also docked in the port on their own exclusive starships.

Xia Lian also saw the Raven that he had seen not long ago, and its hull had obvious signs of repair, and it had been driven out before the painting was ready.

Other than that, everything was calm.

It's just that there are a lot of welcome projection banners on the streets, and for this imperial capital, so many grand dukes are arriving at the same time, which is not a big deal.

At about five o'clock in the evening of the next day, the attendants from the palace entered the solar boat and led Xia Lian into the palace.

Xia Lian only brought two transformers, Mithril and Mercury.

According to common sense, the existence of the transformed person, which is defined as a "combat weapon", is not allowed to enter the palace.

But the banquet allowed to bring female rolls and their families, so Xia Lian brought them in as a female roll.

Of course, they could have stopped it if they wanted to, but they didn't.

It seems that the emperor really just wants to hold a banquet.

It is the highest standard banquet hall in the Empire.

The banquet hall of the Royal Palace is naturally no worse than that of the New Summer Palace.

Whether it is the area comparable to a football field, or the reflective high-end marble floor, and the oversized crystal chandelier hanging overhead, it is magnificent.

Especially the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling doors, which are on the highest floor of the palace, and the floor-to-ceiling doors of the banquet hall go out to some pool platforms reflecting the sky, enough to overlook the entire Joan of Arc astrolabe.

"Invincible Begins with Sacrificing to the Ancestors"

There are already a lot of nobles waiting inside at the moment.

Richly dressed people were familiar with each other, and for them, the distance limited them, and even the nobles of the same country were almost rare to meet.

In order to prevent multiple principalities from forming alliances privately, the wormhole has always been controlled by the empire, and it is very cautious.

Dressed waiters walk through it with drinks in hand, food such as pastries and fruit are placed around, and soothing music plays in the hall.

"Young ~ Isn't this the newly appointed Duke Helios?"

After entering the banquet hall, Xia Lian heard a sharp voice.

Xia Lian followed the voice and saw that it was a young woman who looked to be in her twenties and thirties, with a gorgeous face, heavy makeup, and animal fur on her body, her hair coiled high, noble and proud.

Xia Lian investigated the list and appearance of all the people who came to this banquet yesterday.

The woman's name was Hackri, and she was the wife of the Grand Duke of Panakea, who was close to the Star Sea Republic, but interestingly, she was also the sister of the late Duke Bahram.

So there is no doubt that the comer is not good.

"Hello, Lady Harkley." Xia Lian gave him a gentle smile in return, "You look as beautiful as the rumors. ”

"Huh." Hackley smiled disdainfully, "It's okay with your aesthetics, but I can't say anything like that to you." ”

"You can lie like I did." Xia Lian said with a smile.

Harkley was stunned for a moment, and then, with a look of anger on her face.

"It's Charian Helios."

At Hackley's side, a middle-aged man with a mustache and a military uniform put his arms around the beautiful woman's waist and looked Xia Lian up and down.

"Being able to surprise bomb the Bahram Star, and being able to play the army of the Principality of Bahram like that, does have a wisdom that ordinary people don't have.

I'm sorry, but my wife has always been like this, I have been used to it too much, please forgive me. ”

"You're the Grand Duke of Panakea, aren't you?" Xia Lian smiled, "It's a pleasure to meet you." ”

"I can see it without ordinary people, but I really don't see the wisdom."

A voice came from behind Xia Lian.

He turned around, and there was a group of men and women standing there, and Xia Lian recognized An Lu in them, so the rest of the men should be the rest of the sons of the Duke of Bahram, and the women, their mothers or daughters.

Due to the current transformation technology, these women in their forties and fifties can almost maintain their youth in their twenties and thirties, so Xia Lian can't tell their age at all.

It was one of the women who spoke, and if Charian was not mistaken, it should be the mother of the third prince of Bahram, Lady Dasha.

Her hands were folded over her chest, her face filled with disgust.

"Others just tell the truth, and he will choke back mercilessly, like a vengeful dog, without the slightest aristocratic etiquette.

It's no wonder they do that kind of crazy thing. ”

Xia Lian still had a smile on his face, "Thank you for the compliment, you are also very human." ”

It took a while for Da Sha to react, she looked at Xia Lian, her face was blue and white for a while, but when she was about to have a seizure.

An Lu said on the side.

"Madame Dasha, this is the banquet of the kings, it is in the palace, not the banquet hall of the Principality of Bahram, please pay attention to the occasion."

Dasha came back to her senses and found that most of the people present were watching here.

For these archdukes, they knew who the protagonists of this banquet were.

As soon as they walked in the door, they became the center of everyone's attention.

Instead of speaking, she followed her own son into the crowd and began to talk to the rest of the Grand Duke, as if nothing had happened at all.

This is a rare opportunity to increase political capital, and how could they let it go.

"It's all human spirits." Xia Lian muttered softly.

He looked at the end of the banquet hall, the throne that overlooked the entire hall.

"But that's just the beginning......"

After about a few minutes, a waiter came out of the corridor on one side and shouted to everyone present.

"The Emperor has arrived!

”

As his words fell, the originally noisy hall fell silent instantly.

All of them stared intently at the end of the corridor, and then, two figures slowly appeared in front of people surrounded by waiters...
