Chapter 196 Can’t go back
"Kara" is his concubine, so he naturally understands "Kara"'s character.
With "Kara" by "King's" side, no matter how bad the situation is, it won't be too bad.
Thinking of this, Ralph's face straightened.
He clapped his little hand on his shoulder and stood up.
"I have to go. Sandra is not here. Sierra, I leave this place to you."
Sierra smiled slightly and said: "Leave it to me, there will be no problem."
Nodding, Ralph turned around and strode out.
Just as he reached the door, Ralph stopped again.
He turned around and looked at Sera in the room, and warned: "Don't disturb the "King", let "Kara" take care of everything."
Sierra nodded and said, "Yes, I understand."
Without saying anything more, Ralph turned and left.
Looking at the empty doorway, a trace of curiosity flashed in Sera's eyes.
Although she has always heard about the "King" from adults.
But that's just saying, and he knows nothing about the "King" being a living saint.
She couldn't understand what a great gesture that was.
But seeing "King" today, Sera felt a little disappointed.
"King" looks like an ordinary young man.
But when she was disappointed, Sera also felt an unusual temperament from "The King".
It's that feeling of not being able to look straight.
Once your eyes are on his back, even if it's just a peek.
It's as if there is a pair of eyes staring at you, which makes people shudder.
"call……"
A trace of awe flashed in her eyes, and Sera put aside the random thoughts in her heart.
The guest this time is the "King", and his identity is more precious than anyone else.
The adults all sent their beloved concubine "Kara" to the "King".
In the past, this would have been unthinkable.
Because no one can make adults do that.
She must serve carefully.
For the next few days, everything was quiet.
The "Xinjing Shogunate" had no reaction to the "Terran Empire"'s occupation of the S-01909 star system.
No fleet has arrived, and no reconnaissance spacecraft has entered or left the star system.
Star S-01909-01.
In the starry sky on one side of the orbiting asteroid defense fortress, the imperial fleet floated quietly.
In the flagship, on the bridge...
"How's it going on the third ship?"
Standing in front of the window, Ralph had a solemn expression on his face.
Everything seems to be going wrong lately.
It gives people the feeling of being stuck in a quagmire.
The analysis of the data chip has also been delayed.
The explanation given by the Tech-Priest was that the data chip had suffered physical trauma and had become fragile.
Every step of analysis must be done carefully. If you make a wrong step, the data chip will be destroyed.
Ralph never doubted the abilities of the Mechanicus.
Those mechanical lunatics control the empire's technology.
If they can't do it, no one in the empire can do it.
The Astropath on the bridge responded to Ralph.
"Ship No. 3 is sailing in subspace. Everything is normal. The time of arrival at the signal source is unknown..."
As long as everything is normal, if no accidents occur, the No. 3 ship should arrive at the location of the signal source in ten days.
As if he thought of something, Ralph's face looked thoughtful.
Should the fleet be dispersed to explore nearby star systems?
You may find a surprise...
After thinking about it again and again, Ralph gave up the idea.
The fleet in his hands is not large in size, and one ship was paralyzed in the previous battle.
There are only twelve battleships available now.
Once the fleet is dispersed and the enemy attacks, it will easily capsize in the ditch.
Turning around, Ralph strode away from the bridge.
Imperial fleet, flagship.
Captain's living area, in a certain room.
"You have to do things step by step. Don't be too anxious. The more anxious you are, the more likely it is to cause trouble. Sometimes, if you wait patiently, you will get a good result."
Li Meng took the coffee cup from Carla's hand and took a sip.
Well, it tastes good...
After looking at the sofa opposite, Li Meng said to Ralph, who was standing aside, "Sit down and talk."
Ralph's face straightened, he strode forward and sat upright on the sofa.
"But what's the problem with the Tech-Priests?"
Ralph nodded and said, "Yes, the process of analyzing the data chip is not as easy as imagined. It takes time."
Calculating the time, it has been less than three days since the "Terran Empire" occupied the S-01909 star system.
Ralph is really anxious...
Compared to Ralph's urgency, Li Meng was much calmer.
The "Xinjing Shogunate" has been abolished and cannot make any waves.
Not to mention a few days, just a few months, what can the "Xinjing Shogunate" do?
Unless they can create a fleet out of thin air.
Otherwise, it doesn't matter if this final battle is done a little later or a little earlier.
After glancing at Kara, who was standing quietly not far from the "King", Ralph calmly withdrew his gaze.
"It is better to end the battle as soon as possible. The longer the time drags on, the easier it is for variables to occur. When dealing with the enemy, you cannot give them time to breathe."
Li Meng nodded in agreement with Ralph's words.
"It's not wrong to say that. End this matter as soon as possible so that you can focus on more important things."
What is more important, Ralph doesn't know.
But something has happened in the New Empire recently.
Although some things are unknown to them as subordinates.
But some problems can be seen from the military deployment.
"King, Terra... Are we just giving up?"
At present, the New Empire has a lot of work to do and everything is starting over.
How could Ralph not know what a habitable planet represents?
If the New Empire has a habitable planet, the development of the population can be guaranteed.
And the population is the driving force for civilization to move towards the stars.
Without population, how can there be development?
Although the "King" can obtain population from the cube building in the S-01904 star system.
But Ralph remains skeptical about the identities of those people.
Not only him, but all those who woke up from the Far Journey reject those people of unknown origin.
On Ark 1, Governor Odysseus even divided the people who woke up from the Far Journey into an independent area.
This can ensure the pure bloodline of the people of the Empire.
And the Mechanicus is also conducting some research on those people of unknown origin.
So far, from the biological gene level, there is no difference between those people and the people of the Empire.
But this answer is undoubtedly unsatisfactory.
Terra?
Li Meng took a sip of strong and sweet coffee, and his expression was thoughtful.
He looked up at Ralph and said calmly: "Don't call it "Terra" anymore. Since we evacuated the S-01919 star system, Terra no longer belongs to us, and we can't go back."
