Chapter 209: You don't have a choice
Thangka would not forget the appearance of the person in front of him, so at that moment, he recognized Xia Lian.
He scrambled to get up from his seat, and Mlander on one side reacted quickly, and he randomly called the guards around him through the communication system.
However, it was found that there was no response in the entire communication channel, and the entire network of the Governor's Mansion was controlled the moment Xia Lian arrived.
After seeing Mlander's flustered expression, Thangka basically understood this.
The emigrant ship arrived at the planet as Charlian had expected.
And once you get here, you're all set.
Xia Lian tried the magic he had deduced in a quantum computer.
An insect is manifested with magic power, and the insect's internal nerves are integrated with micro-nano and carry Xia Lian's consciousness.
Insects have very few nerves, so it's easy to control.
And let the insects carry the quantum into the Governor's Palace, and Xia Lian will be able to come here in an instant through quantum teleportation.
At this moment, after realizing that he has lost control.
Thangka calmed down a bit, he sat back in his seat, then opened the drawer, pulled out a set of tea sets from the drawer, and placed a teacup for himself and Xia Lian.
Then, he lifted the kettle on one side and poured some black tea for him and himself, and the surging aroma of tea filled the small space.
"Speaking of which, this should be the first time the two of us have officially met." Thangka looked at Xia Lian, "Duke Helios. ”
Xia Lian smiled, "I've heard a lot of your name recently. ”
"After all, it's me who is in charge of fighting your empire on this front." Thangka laughed, "But now it looks ..... I seem to have been generalized by you. ”
Xia Lian couldn't deny picking up the black tea in front of him and blowing it, taking a sip, nodding and saying, "It is worthy of the black tea of the Governor's Palace." ”
"Aren't you afraid that it's poisonous inside?" Thangka teased.
"I'm invincible." Xia Lian said.
This is not a lie, the Eye of Horus can make Xia Lian immune to all curses, in layman's terms, immune to all negative states, and toxins are also in negative states, so he is also invulnerable.
However, in Thangka's eyes, it means that the person in front of him has absolute confidence in controlling the situation in front of him.
"Worthy of the Duke of Helios." Thangka laughed, "If you dare to come to the Governor's Palace in person, this courage alone surpasses many people." ”
After a pause, Thangka also picked up the black tea in front of him and took a sip, although the cup looked like an ordinary ceramic cup, it actually had technology.
That is, the hot water poured in will turn into black tea, and the cup will keep the black tea at a warm but not hot temperature, so even if the hot water is just poured in, it will not be very hot.
"Let me guess how you got to us......"
"You have seen through our plan, and you will use your fleet as bait to make us think that you have fallen into our trap.
Then an assault team was sent to infiltrate the evacuation team while the two fleets were engaged, right?

Our cyborg recognition technology is excellent, even in order to prevent the Empire's cyborg from infiltrating the Doge's Palace through camouflage technology.
All alters who evacuate the starship are not allowed to enter the Doge's Palace.
So, I am shocked that you may not even have sent a transhuman assault team, and that you went there in person for such a dangerous mission. ”
"I came in person to show my sincerity." Xia Lian said.
"Oh?" Thangka's eyes showed a little interest, "Sincerity? ”
"Do you want to know the real-time location of the imperial capital?"
Xia Lian didn't talk nonsense, but asked directly to the point.
Thangka's eyes narrowed slightly, "What do you mean..... Your Principality of Helios is officially breaking away from the Empire? ”
"We didn't agree to this war from the beginning." Xia Lian said, "However, we can't resist the Emperor. ”
Xia Lian didn't tell him about all the things that the Grand Duke was imprisoned, and at the negotiation table, the most taboo thing was to expose his purpose and bottom line too early, which would allow the enemy to control the initiative.
"Your ghost fleet never seems to have been dispatched." Xia Lian continued.
He looked at Thangka and smiled, "I don't think this fleet really doesn't exist, right?" ”
"Why did you come to us when you know the real-time location of the palace?
Your Helios, it's not like there's no stealth assault fleet. Thangka asked.
"Burst into the palace and force the emperor to sign the Zen concession order, is it uncomfortable to be the emperor yourself?"
He looked at Xia Lian with interest, "Your behavior of looking for the enemy's help is treason." ”
"Attacking the palace is not treason?" Xia Lian asked rhetorically.
After a pause, he continued, "I don't have that much ambition, and even if I conquered the palace, the Grand Dukes wouldn't necessarily recognize my legitimacy.
That would only make the empire more chaotic, and all I wanted was to end the war.
Enough people have died, haven't they? ”
"I admire your kindness." Thangka lowered his head at Xia Lian and smiled, of course, whether he was sincere or not is hidden and unknown.
"So, what do you want us to do?"
"In your hands, is there a technology from extraterrestrial that transmits information by creating a kind of tachyon, which cannot be intercepted by interception means using existing communication technology?" Xia Lian said.
"I can bring that thing to the Palace, and it will provide your fleet with a real-time location."
"It looks like our new federation has really been infiltrated into a sieve by your intelligence system."
Thangka's eyes flickered.
"You, the new Duke of Helios, are even more terrible than your father.
What's even more terrifying is that we didn't know anything about you during these eighteen years. ”
"After the award, my father's merits are incomparable to me now." Xia Lian said with a smile.
"It does sound very tempting." Thangka nodded, "For the current battle situation, if this plan can be successful, it will have a drastic change for the entire battle situation.
But ....."

Thangka looked up at Xia Lian, "How can we be sure this isn't a trap?" ”
"I can kill you right now.
This would allow the entire starfront to collapse without having to bother going around in a big circle to trap your ghost fleet. Xia Lian said calmly.
Thangka and Mland on one side were silent, although they didn't want to admit it, what the person in front of them said was indeed true.
With the current form of government of the new federation, it will be very difficult to find a suitable leader after his death.
His son was incompetent and even if he inherited his political legacy, he simply could not fight the empire.
That would be a rather chaotic struggle for power.
As Xia Lian said, as soon as he died, it was enough to collapse the whole line.
So on the contrary, he didn't have any reason to bother dealing with the ghost fleet.
"You don't have a choice."
Xia Lian looked at him quietly, and his azure left eye seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, making people feel that in front of his eyes, there was no concealment.
"When your plan fails, unless there is rest of the support, the defeat is assured.
And according to my intelligence, support, won't come so soon, will it?
Many of you want to take this opportunity to become the Emperor of the Soil. ”
Thangka stared at Xia Lian, and after a long time, he sighed deeply.
"My gut tells me that your ambitions are much more than that."
He looked out the window, his eyes deep.
"But it seems, as you say, we don't have a choice.
But it's still a big gamble for us. ”
He rose from his seat and walked up and down the Doge's Palace, lost in thought, looking at his furrowed brow, and almost everyone could see the anxiety in his heart.
Xia Lian smiled, and he got up from his seat, "I originally thought that the Governor of Thangka would be a bold and powerful man, so I personally ventured here.
But it seems that it is nothing more than that. ”
"You don't have to use this shoddy agitation."
Thangka paused in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of this office, looking down condescendingly over the city, with his back to Xia Liandao.
After a pause, he turned to look at Xia Lian, "I had already made a decision before you said this. ”
"Governor!" Mland was a little speechless.
Thangka, on the other hand, raised his hand to stop him from speaking, and he looked at Xia Lian.
"Come with me."
Thangka walked to the elevator of the office, and the elevator door slowly opened when he walked to the door, and Xia Lian walked into the elevator very calmly.
Here is a sightseeing elevator that is transparent on all sides, and as the thangka presses the button, the entire elevator moves rapidly upwards, even out of the floor.
The elevator was powered by its own power, and it continued to move upwards like a small shuttle.
Xia Lian looked at the cities that were getting smaller and smaller on the ground, and then at the clouds that were getting closer and closer.
Soon, after the clouds broke through, a huge air fortress appeared in front of him, covering most of the sky, like a hood covering the entire city.
But the amazing thing is that it is impossible to find this thing at all, whether you look up in the city or from outside the earth.

This is supposed to be a secret artifact used to protect the planet.
"This is something left over from the old Federation, or rather, a product of the age of intelligent machines, and only with artificial intelligence can it show its true grandeur.
Now it can show less than one-tenth of its combat effectiveness at its peak. Thangka explained on one side.
"But you already have, don't you?" Xia Lian said.
Thangka fell silent again, turned his head to look at him, and sighed from the bottom of his heart.
"Helios, the more I know you, the more I think you're terrible......"
Xia Lian shrugged his shoulders, "It's all a mental effect, if you get along with me for a long time, you will find that I am actually a very gentle and kind person." ”
"At least you have a good sense of humor." Thangkadao.
Xia Lian smiled.
At this moment, the elevator also led them into the sky fortress.
The elevator door slowly opened, and Thangka flew towards the interior of the fortress with Xia Lian through the gravity disk.
"After the victory of the war with the Wisdom Machine, the Federation inherited most of the legacy, and before the Wisdom Machine got out of control, mankind was stronger than ever, the national spirit was highly cohesive, and the government decree was unified from top to bottom.
During that time, human beings expanded a lot outward and defeated many alien races, so naturally they also gained a lot of legacies from alien civilizations.
Some of it is digested by us and becomes our technology, while the other part is because it is not necessary to be digested.
But as a sample, some of the samples were kept here. ”
As he spoke, Thangka took Xia Lian to a mechanical door, and the door of the machinery slowly opened...
