Chapter 1195: Unpredictable Events (Second Update)

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan stared at Huo Yushen closely and said displeasedly: "...Is this Xia Chu meeting so difficult to kill?!"

"I am a majestic emperor, so I can't kill an ordinary civilian?!"

Huo Yushen did not answer his question directly, but just said: "Your Majesty, didn't you say that you wanted to spare her life to explore the situation behind the 'Gate of God's Descending'?"

These words were extremely cold, as if Dou Tou had poured a basin of ice water on the emperor from an extremely cold place that had been frozen for thousands of years.

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan almost had a cold war visible to the naked eye.

When he came back to his senses, he was surprised that his hatred for Xia Chujian actually exceeded his desire for the "Gate of God's Descending"!

Even if he can't be killed directly, Xia Chujian will be deprived of his second-generation mecha!

He knew that Xia Chujian was not a genetic evolver, and without the second-generation mecha, she might not have been able to survive an hour on the front line!

He had done it on purpose before...

But if Xia Chujian is really killed like this, who else can tell him what kind of world is behind that extremely mysterious "Gate of God's Descendance"? !

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan thought of his intuition again, that uncontrollable malice towards Xia Chujian, and felt a little uneasy.

He doesn't have any prophetic powers, but he also has the intuition that normal people have.

But he didn't understand why he was so afraid of an ordinary person who didn't have the ability to genetically evolve!

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan lowered his head expressionlessly, without looking at Huo Yushen, and said, "That's it, you hand over Xia Chujian to the military..."

"Which star fleet is currently stationed on Shaofu Planet?"

Huo Yushen said: "...The Fourth Star Fleet."

Ye Chenfeng, the commander-in-chief of the interstellar fleet, admired Xia Chujian very much.

Moreover, the temporary military status he granted Xia Chujian was in the Fourth Star Fleet.

If Xia Chujian is allowed to go to the Fourth Star Fleet, even if he is to become an interstellar marine, he will have great potential.

Huo Yushen just breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't expect Emperor Tantai Hongyuan to ponder for a long time and ask: "Where is the Fifth Star Fleet stationed?"

Huo Yushen said: "...Beichen Star."

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan smiled half-heartedly and said, "According to my order, the fifth interstellar fleet is transferred to the front line of Shaofu Star."

"The Fourth Star Fleet returns to defend Beichen Star."

"When I met Xia Chu, I was assigned to the Fifth Star Fleet, starting from the lowest level of Star Marine."

Huo Yushen showed no expression. He nodded in agreement and said, "Your Majesty, please give me your handwriting. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to take Xia Chujian away from the prison at the Special Security Bureau headquarters."

The prison at the Special Security Bureau headquarters, like the sky prison in the palace, is actually under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor.

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan issued an oral edict in front of so many people, so of course he would not be stingy with an imperial edict.

He quickly finished writing the handwriting, stamped it with the royal seal, handed it to Huo Yushen, and said with a half-smile: "Although I sent her to the front line, I don't want her to die right away."

"Will your Special Security Bureau operate to ensure her life safety?"

Huo Yushen said coldly: "Your Majesty, the Starry Sky Marines cannot accept our protection."

"Besides, our people have all gone to the Southern Cross, and we don't have the manpower to go to the Shaofu Star to keep an eye on her."

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan suddenly said: "Yes, you also want to go to the Southern Cross..."

He stared at Huo Yushen, seemingly reluctant to leave, and said hesitantly: "...Do you have to go in person?"

"What will happen to the Special Security Bureau if you leave?"

Huo Yushen was silent for a while and said: "The original intention of the Special Security Bureau is to be responsible for the empire's external intelligence work."

"But now, in the entire Beichen galaxy, apart from the Beichen Empire, there is no other country."

"The focus of our work must also shift."

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan murmured: "Yes...who would have thought..."

"The four countries that split from the Beichen Empire a thousand years ago actually no longer exist."

"It's really a changing world... things in the world are unpredictable..."

Huo Yushen said: "But the danger we are facing now is more urgent."

"Maybe it's not that the four countries are gone, but that even the Beichen Empire is gone."

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan nodded: "I know it well."

"Your Special Security Bureau may as well transform into a wartime foreign intelligence agency."

"Although those four countries no longer exist, new forces have risen again."

"The Zerg...even if we can't defeat the Zerg, we must ensure that we don't lose to them!"

Huo Yushen heard this and was already thinking about dividing the sphere of influence of the Beichen Galaxy with the Zerg?

He looked calm and indifferent and said: "Whatever the specific situation is, I still need to go there in person, otherwise I won't be able to let our country's soldiers go to war."

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan waved his hand: "Yu Shen, don't worry too much about these low-level starry sky marines."

"Compared to you, they are nothing!"

"I would rather have 100 million Star Marines die than have you suffer any damage!"

Huo Yushen lowered his eyes slightly: "Thank you for your attention, Your Majesty, but our Special Security Bureau has our own responsibilities."

"Otherwise we will be terminated."

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan laughed loudly and said: "Yushen, as long as I am here, you will never be dismissed!"

Huo Yushen was noncommittal and still had an indifferent face. He bowed in the direction of Emperor Tantai Hongyuan and said, "If your Majesty has no other instructions, I will leave first."

Emperor Tantai Hongyuan nodded and motioned for him to go down.

Huo Yushen quickly left the imperial study room of Emperor Tantai Hongyuan.

The headquarters of the Special Security Bureau is right next to the palace.

As soon as Huo Yushen left the palace, he displayed the terrifying power of a Ming-level genetic evolver, and returned to his office at the headquarters of the Special Security Bureau in almost the blink of an eye, just like teleporting.

After Huo Yushen left, Emperor Tan Tai Hongyuan also thought clearly about what he wanted to do.

Soon, his orders were naturally conveyed by the eunuchs.

So, as soon as Huo Yushen sat on the chair in his office at the headquarters of the Special Security Bureau, the Fifth Interstellar Fleet received an order to exchange guards with the Fourth Interstellar Fleet.

The Fourth Interstellar Fleet was stationed at the forefront of the battle between the entire Beichen Empire and the Zerg!

Although it has not officially ended yet, it is already visible from afar.

Everyone also knows that it is only a matter of time before they go to the battlefield.

The Fifth Interstellar Fleet was reorganized after its establishment was almost wiped out.

It was also rebuilt after Huo Yushen left the Fifth Interstellar Fleet.

The biggest feature of this interstellar fleet now is that there are many noble senior officers.

This is also a kind of compensation for them.

The battle with the Southern Cross Principality, which Huo Yushen commanded, was extremely brutal.

However, he brought back 5,000 living space marines, and the rest of the noble officers, from top to bottom, died cleanly.

It was also because of this that he was targeted by the entire aristocracy at that time.

Even if the emperor wanted to protect him, he still couldn't compete with the entire aristocracy, so he had to transfer him from the front line to the Special Security Bureau as the chief inspector.

Then the reorganized Fifth Interstellar Fleet was controlled by the nobles. In addition to military merit, the officers in it had to be nobles to be promoted to the rank of colonel or above.

As a result, all the officers at the colonel level and above in the current Fifth Interstellar Fleet are of noble origin.

Less than one percent of the lieutenant officers are genetically evolved from civilians.

The rest of the lieutenant officers are also of noble origin.

Ordinary civilians who are not genetically evolved, no matter how outstanding their military merits are in the Fifth Interstellar Fleet, can only be space marines forever.

The emperor Tan Tai Hongyuan sent Xia Chujian to this interstellar fleet, and his calculations were almost known to everyone.

The beads on the abacus were about to fall on people's faces.

But the officers of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet were unhappy.

Why did the emperor punish Xia Chujian and let the entire fleet go to the front line of Shaofu Star to suffer? !

Of course, they only dared to complain in their hearts.

At this time, they dared not say it out loud.

Within just five minutes, the leave notes of the officers of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet popped up like mushrooms after rain, and soon one-third of the officers asked for leave.

Even the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet, Rong Shengwei, asked for a personal leave from His Majesty the Emperor. It was said that his elderly family member had passed away and he had to go back to attend the funeral. He temporarily recommended his deputy, Qiu Shenju from the Qiu family, to take charge of the entire fleet on his behalf.

Rong Shengwei was born in the main branch of the Earl Rong family, and he was a cousin of the Queen Li Fengen.

When he left, the emperor Tan Tai Hongyuan did not stop him at all, and was happy to see it happen.

But other officers were not so lucky.

Basically, the noble officers who did not have wide connections and strong backgrounds had to follow the rotation to the front line of Shaofu Star without even having their leave slips approved.

So when the entire fleet was preparing for the rotation, the atmosphere was very depressing, and those officers even complained without hesitation.

At the beginning, they only complained in their own group.

Of course, they did not dare to complain about the emperor's decision, but only dared to scold Xia Chujian for "harming others and himself."

Then one time, an officer mistakenly sent a chat to a large group, so the entire fleet, including those star marines, knew that it was because of Xia Chujian that they were transferred from the safest Beichen Star to the most dangerous Shaofu Star.

Star marines are all civilians, and they are all ordinary people.

They are different from those officers, but when the time comes, it is impossible for them to have no thoughts in their hearts.

But no matter how much they think, they will not, and cannot, be like those officers, who can avoid a rotation by just asking for leave slips.

Xia Chujian knew nothing about this.

She was about to spend the night in the prison at the Special Security Bureau headquarters when she saw Meng Guanghui rushing over and saying, "Chujian, come out and follow me to see Huo Shuai."

"By the way, don't worry, you've been acquitted."

Xia Chujian raised her eyebrows: "...Ah? Did...the emperor release me?"

Meng Guanghui nodded: "I don't know the details, but Huo Shuai just came back from the palace, he should have something to tell you."

Xia Chujian curled her lips and said, "I knew it wouldn't be that easy... There must be something that's 'the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime can't be escaped', waiting for me!"

This is the second update! There will be a new update at 5:00 pm!

Before I knew it, it has been four million words.

It's worth celebrating, scatter flowersヽ(°▽°)ノ
