"Let me see... Dawn Planet's first battleship-class interstellar dock is completed, located in the h78 segment of the industrial star ring... Black Steel Group's first self-developed engineering robot has completed testing... Havin Planet's comprehensive report this month... Material cracking
The test of the cannon has been completed and the shooting range experiment will be carried out..." Tang Xiao sat in front of the office, looking at the title of the official document that was flashing on the screen in front of him, and curled his lips, "It seems that there has been a lot of progress on the Dawn Planet during the time I have been out.
ah."
"Under your rule, Lord Governor, everything in the Fourth Civilization is proceeding in an orderly manner." Standing in front of Tang Xiao was the Prime Minister of the Fourth Civilization, Francis Underwood.
Compared with the time when he was first awakened, Francis didn't seem to have changed much. Although more than ten years had passed, and he was now over sixty years old, he was just under the best care.
Bottom, he still looks like he is in his 50s.
At this moment, he was wearing a crisp suit and the latest universal tool optimized to look like a watch, looking at Tang Xiao with a smile.
Tang Xiao nodded and reviewed these documents one by one.
In fact, there are not many things that require him to make decisions personally, it is more just a report. Of course, if he wants, these projects can be interrupted or changed at any time.
While reading these documents, he said to Francis: "You need to pay attention to Rendili Interstellar Power Company at any time so that we can connect with them at any time."
"Yes, this is also the focus of my work recently." Francis replied respectfully.
"What's going on with the supplies delivered by the Federation of Independent Systems?" Tang Xiao asked.
"The first batch has arrived, but the road was not peaceful. The transport fleet encountered four hyperspace blockers and was raided by the Republic fleet. There were some losses. However, the people in the escort fleet performed well, and they finally succeeded.
The supplies are delivered to the planet Rendili," Francis said.
"Isn't there any good news from Severance Tann yet?"
"Not yet. The Galactic Republic has sent an additional fleet. I think she may be under a lot of pressure... Do I need to send a letter to urge her?"
"You don't understand military matters, and neither do I, so don't do it casually." Tang Xiao said calmly, "She will give us a satisfactory result."
"Yes, my dear Governor."
Tang Xiao waved his hand, and after Francis bowed and saluted, he walked backwards and left the office.
At this time, the mastermind of the mothership sent a message directly to Tang Xiao's mind, [Sir Governor, there is a communication coming through the encrypted channel, do you want to answer it? 】
"Whose?" Tang Xiao asked casually.
【Yuri-Olov.】
"Him?" Tang Xiao frowned, "Take it over."
The holographic projection in front flickered, and the harmless-looking face of Yuri Orlov appeared. However, he looked a little haggard at the moment, but he still forced a smile and said: "Mr. Governor, how have you been lately?"
"Not bad. But it would be even better if you could transport another 5 million blasters and 100,000 rocket launchers to the planet Rendili." Tang Xiao said calmly.
"This is your job, Lord Governor. Don't forget that the Galactic Republic is currently surrounding the Rendili galaxy. Without the power of a fleet, it cannot break through the hyperspace blocker they have set up." Yuri -
Olof smiled.
"If that's the case, then I'm not in a good mood right now." Tang Xiao said.
"Well..." Yuri laughed dryly, a little embarrassed, but he still said: "I came to you because... well, I want to ask you for a favor..."
"Help? Are you sure this word will come out of your mouth and not a deal?" Tang Xiao sneered.
"At least in this matter, I can only ask you for help. If you want to ask me what I can provide, well, I guess I can only let you make a price." Yuri Orlov said.
Tang Xiao became somewhat interested, "Oh? Then tell me, what makes our Santa Claus so worried?"
"Well. It's my brother, Vitaly Orlov. I found him..." Yuri Orlov said.
"Vitaly? Hasn't he been missing for several years?" Tang Xiao frowned.
Yuri smiled bitterly, "That's right. He left after we provoked the civil war on the planet Seria. Later, I heard that he joined an anti-war organization and was active everywhere, but I don't know where he is.
After so many years, I have been unable to find his whereabouts. I even thought he was dead... However, even if he is really dead, at least I will not stop until I find his body.
"
"So you have found him now? Or have you found his body?" Tang Xiao asked.
"I did find him. He is on the planet Mandalore." Yuri Orlov replied.
"Planet Mandalore?!" Tang Xiao's expression was a little strange.
"What? Is there something wrong with this planet?" Yuri Orlov was a little surprised.
"If you know a little bit about the history of the planet Mandalore, you will understand that this planet is not just 'problematic'," Tang Xiao said.
"You know if you ask me to read a book, I can fall asleep within 10 seconds. Except for the structural diagram of the turbolaser cannon." Yuri Orlov said.
"Well...what is he doing on Mandalore?"
"Well, he... at least some time ago, he was the ruler of the planet Mandalore and the advisor to the Grand Duchess Satine Kryze." Yuri Orlov said.
"So his life was pretty good, and he actually hugged the Mandalorian's lap." Tang Xiao said, "In that case, what else do you want to do with him? He doesn't like weapons or war. He doesn't like weapons. He doesn't like war.
You should know one thing better than me. And the current Mandalorians also don’t like weapons or war, so he will live very well there.”
Yuri Orlov's expression darkened, "No...actually, I heard that he died..."
"Dead?" Tang Xiao frowned.
"No! He's not dead! I'm sure! I can feel him! He is my brother!" Yuri Orlov suddenly became excited and he said loudly.
"Tell me what you know." Tang Xiao said.
"Three days ago, yes, three days." Yuri Orlov said, "I suddenly received a communication from Vitali! This is very strange, because he never takes the initiative to contact me, and once I answered
After his comms spoke to him a few words, he deleted that band."
[To be honest, I have been using the Huanyuan app recently to read and catch up on new books. It allows me to switch between sources and read aloud with many sounds. .huanyuanapp is available for Android and Apple.]
Tang Xiao nodded and asked him to continue.
"But in the communication, he seemed very panicked. He told me that someone was going to kill him, and then said a very strange word. Then, there was a chaotic sound outside the screen, and then the whole screen began to shake, and then there was a
Chaos...I heard Vitaly scream, and then...everything was interrupted." Yuri Orlov grabbed his hair in frustration, even though his hairline was already very dangerous.
"Strange word? What word?" Tang Xiao asked.
"I don't know. I was a little panicked at the time and didn't hear clearly. It seems to be...pronounced...'Jéang', ah! No, I really don't know this thing!!" Yuri Orlov photographed
He said with his head on his forehead.
"Is there a video?"
"No! I was talking to my brother, how could I record it!" Yuri Orlov became anxious.
"Reang...Reang..." Tang Xiao repeated this strange word, and then suddenly an idea flashed, "Wait a minute, is it zann??"
"Say it again?" Yuri Orlov stopped for a moment.
"Zann, Zann." Tang Xiao repeated.
"That's right! That's it! That's it! zann! Zane!!" Yuri Olov suddenly jumped up, "Do you know this word? What does it mean??"
"Zane Consortium, a group that will only become active in more than ten or twenty years..." Tang Xiao glanced at him and said calmly.
