Resurrection Empire

Although his heart began to feel sad, Ren Zhong remained calm on his face. He only lamented that it was a pity that he was not born five hundred thousand years earlier, that he was not able to follow Lord Zhenjiang in the battlefield, and that he was not able to see Zhenjiang. The demeanor of the Marquis of Xinjiang is really a pity.

Marvell immediately hit the snake on the stick and laughed loudly and said: "Brother Ren Zhong, you don't have to regret it. The Marquis often said that the future is long. There are still opportunities."

Ren Zhong responded, "That's right. I hope this day comes early."

In fact, Marvel has already completed the task ahead of schedule. He also didn't expect that he would test out Ren Zhong's intention to seek refuge with the Marquis of Zhenjiang as soon as he arrived, and he was immediately in a good mood.

The two chatted briefly and unknowingly entered the core cabin of the voyage ship.

This is a conference hall with a very simple decoration. Next to the conference hall is Marvell's living room. Ren Zhong's eyes passed through the open door and saw the layout of the living room. It is really simple, with only an ordinary picture. An alloy bed, a bedside table, a small desk, and an extremely simple bookshelf with some paper books on it and no other decorations. This layout looks completely unworthy of a count from the center of the empire. His rank reveals that the life style of the Zhenjiang Hou family is really not like the traditional aristocrats of the empire.

Although Ren Zhong was polite to the other party for a long time, his recognition of Zhenjiang Marquis increased significantly because of this room. If Marvell knew what Ren Zhong was thinking, he would be a little proud.

As Ren Zhong guessed, the ancestors of Zhenjiang Marquis himself and his direct subordinates all came from the enemy-occupied areas that are still controlled by the Ascendants. With longing for their homeland and strong reluctance, the wandering family headed by Zhenjiang Hou himself had no intention of enjoying life before realizing their ambitions.

In the conference room, Marvell Louis first briefly talked with Ren Zhong about the process of the canonization ceremony, and also discussed the details of his military merit evaluation with Ren Zhong in detail.

Although after arriving at the Nanxiang Star Cluster, the Chifeng Fleet also fought many big and small battles and was considered successful in suppressing the bandits. However, there were not many military exploits for suppressing the bandits. The position of Earl of Responsible Earl was mainly achieved through the fourth rank. The queen's megablast cells.

The "god-level demon" that Ren Zhong killed while on the Source Star seemed to have done a lot of credit. However, because he could not obtain conclusive evidence and the incident also occurred in the Tracer Colony area, his weight was lowered. Not as important as megablast cells.

According to Marvell Louis, as time went by, the role of the megablast cells originally provided to the empire by Ren Zhongzhong did not decrease, but became more and more important.

In the past hundred years, the Royal Academy of Sciences has figured out many of the recent biotechnological achievements of the Ascendants through in-depth analysis of megablast cells. Now the empire is quietly making preparations. Its huge productivity is secretly activated at full speed, transforming the results at an extremely fast speed, and using these results to create a large number of targeted equipment. Although the Machinery Empire is relatively weak among the four countries, it is only relative, and it is somewhat capable of fighting back.

There is no doubt that the empire is planning a war that will change the situation.

The Marquis of Zhenjiang was not clearly notified, and the matter is still confidential. This is a conclusion drawn by Marvell Louis based on his observation of the flow of resources within the empire. So what Marvel told Ren Zhong was not considered a leak.

After listening to Marvel's analysis, Ren Zhong appropriately showed an excited and bellicose attitude, and said categorically: "According to imperial military regulations, if there really is a war, the Nanxiang Star Group fleet will also be incorporated into the group army under the command of Zhenjiang Marquis. I will ask Brother Marvel to apply to the Marquis for me when the time comes. I don’t want to be trapped under Liu An and have to guard against him stabbing me in the back. Why not transfer my Chifeng Army to the headquarters directly under the Marquis? Be a pioneer.”

Ren Zhong's statement seems a bit brainless.

Marvel also felt a little strange.

The conflict between your Uncle Chifeng and Uncle Nanxiang is well known to the world. This is true.

But this is actually the first time you and I have met. Why do you trust us so much? Aren’t you afraid that we will be even more fooled then? With your wisdom and experience, shouldn’t you be a little wary of us?

You, Uncle Chi Feng, don't look like such a simple person.

Could it be because I performed so well today that people really felt like old friends at first sight?

Thinking of this, Marvell blushed a little, feeling that Ren Zhong was so frank, but that he was too frivolous.

"Then I will first thank Brother Ren Zhong for your trust on behalf of the Marquis."

Ren Zhong hummed, but immediately said: "Considering that I have a good chance of fighting alongside the Marquis in the future, Brother Marvel, can you take me to visit this long-distance ship first, so that I can get used to the high-level imperial ship in advance? performance and features?”

"Brother Ren Zhong, is this your real purpose, right?" Marvell Louis suddenly smiled in relief, looked directly at Ren Zhong, and asked straightforwardly.

Ren Zhong did not hide it, and said frankly: "You have seen through it. But if a large-scale war really breaks out again, it will definitely be much better to directly take orders from Lord Marquis than to be manipulated by Liu An. Although I really don't know Lord Marquis, I at least Understand Liu An. Liu An is already the worst choice, so why not try new possibilities. At least it won't be worse than Liu An, right?"

Marvell Louis was silent for a few seconds, and then said with a smile: "You have seen clearly, and the Marquis will prove to you with facts that this will definitely be the right choice. Let's go, I will take you to the inspection room, there is You have not yet been canonized for the complete design drawing of this long-distance voyage ship. With my authority, I can only show you so much for the time being."

"Thank you."

Another seven or eight hours passed, and the Stargate hub told Marvel that the energy storage preparations before the voyage had been completed and they were ready to set off at any time.

Ren Zhong finally reluctantly turned off the projection in front of him, and was sent back to the dock by Marvel.

Next, Ren Zhong will return to his own smart warship, and then follow the guidance of Marvel's voyage ship, enter the star gate, and go to the core area of ​​the Far Frontier Star Territory.

As Ren Zhong guessed, both the Marquis of Zhenjiang and the Far Frontier Star Territory Branch of the Royal Academy of Sciences were very interested in his warship.

Even if he has a heavy responsibility, he doesn't care about himself and is willing to give the battleship to others for research.

Anyway, the Royal Academy of Sciences was able to deduce the genetic combination of the space sandworm through the megablast cells of the fourth-class mother queen, and initially obtained the jump technology. The reason why the Royal Academy of Sciences failed to apply the warp technology to warships like him to form a reliable combat force is that the problem lies in the inability to accurately and quickly calculate the cosmic coordinate system. Their short-range warp Jumping is always a matter of luck.

Here at Ren Zhong, he relies on his ability to predict subtle changes in the coordinate system of the universe, which comes from the lowest level of the quantum entanglement laws of brain thinking. It cannot be copied and cannot be learned by others, so he can study it openly and without fear.

Of course, Ren Zhong knew that there must be a biomedical institution waiting for him in the Far Frontier Star Territory, and he would study him thoroughly like a guinea pig.

But so what?

He is still fearless.

Anyway, he already knew that he could survive safely.

After receiving the information from Marvel that the war was imminent, he saw a more accurate picture in his precognition.

In short, it is the empire that needs his abilities now, not his specimen.

Besides, with the technology mastered by the Machine Empire, if you want to study him thoroughly, you don't need to take his life.

"Brother Ren Zhong, I really regret meeting you late."

Before leaving, Marvel said with emotion.

Ren Zhongye said: "Me too. Frankly speaking, Liu An had a great impact on me. I once thought that the high-ranking nobles in the empire were all that virtuous. Now it seems that I am the frog in the well."

Marvel shrugged, "There is an old saying in the empire that there are hundreds of people in all kinds of shapes. You are still young, have not experienced enough, and have not seen enough. You will gradually get used to this. Oh, by the way, there is something in my heart that I don't know. Say it right or wrong.”

"Speaking."

Marvel's expression was calm and seemed a little serious, "I would like to suggest that you dissolve your marriage to your two wives."

Ren Zhong frowned, "Why? Is it because they are stateless colonists? I remember that even nobles can form a marital relationship with stateless people as long as they are willing, right?"

Marvell hummed, "Indeed, you can. But that basically only happens to low-level nobles of viscount and below. You are a count after all. Even if you look at the entire empire, your situation is rare."

Ren Zhong asked, "What's the problem with this? Will it affect my title advancement?"

"Not really. It seems that you are reluctant to let go of Brother Ren Zhong?" Marvel became more and more confused as he talked.

Ren Zhong nodded without hesitation, "I can't say I'm reluctant, but in my opinion, marriage is probably one of the most sacred contractual relationships. They never left me when I was poor and weak. During my growth, they They helped me so much. Now that they haven’t done anything sorry to me, how can they get divorced out of nowhere?”

Ren Zhong continued to look at Marvel with doubtful eyes.

Now Marvell Louis was a little confused.

He knew that Ren Zhong still had no descendants so far.

In his opinion, Ren Zhong clearly did this on purpose and it was a utilitarian calculation.

Ren Zhong did not leave any offspring with the two lower-class colonial wives, in order to gain a springboard through marriage when the time was right in the future.

This only makes sense.

In the Machinery Empire, although a marriage relationship is not the most reliable alliance, it is still very meaningful and is very popular among high-ranking nobles.

Marvel has waited until now to test, also to complete his second mission on this trip.

Unexpectedly, when he asked, he realized that things were not as expected.

So Marvel felt a little embarrassed and even had to scratch his head to cover it up.

Immediately he asked tentatively: "What about reducing Ju Qingmeng and Ma Xiaoling from legal wives to concubines?"

Ren Zhong shook his head decisively again, "No, I'm not that kind of person."

"Uh...this..." Marvell was completely embarrassed.

At this moment, Marvell's watch communicated directly with his brain waves, and an electronic synthesized sound sounded.

"There is no need to talk to him about this matter anymore. Your first task this time is to study Ren Zhong's character through face-to-face communication, which has been basically completed. I think it is more in line with my expectations that he is so affectionate and righteous. Maybe there is no need to implement it at all. This plan will achieve the goal. Everything will continue as usual."

"Okay." Marvel replied in his heart, then subconsciously turned his head to look at the crew cabin of the voyage ship, then quickly looked away, and then smiled at Ren Zhong: "It seems that I was abrupt, I'm sorry. This It’s really not something I should ask about.”

Ren Zhong said indifferently: "It's okay, these are insignificant details. Besides, even on the same planet, people in different regions will form different living habits and cognitions. You and I have different opinions on these things. It is completely normal to have different opinions. Instead, I would like to thank you, Brother Marvel, for your understanding."

"Haha, that's right. Please."

"Okay, see you later." After saying hello again, Ren Zhong jumped on the single-person spaceship, watched Marvel leave the closed cabin of the docking station, waited until the outside was almost vacuumed, and then drove the spaceship back to his battleship. .

"Things are not good." Ren Zhong muttered to himself subconsciously while inputting the navigation parameters provided by the pilot of Marvel's voyage ship into his own battleship.

He used to act a bit silly in front of others, but when he was really alone, he felt a little headache.

He suspected that Marquis Zhenjiang planned to marry his daughter or his great-granddaughter.

This is a bit bloody.

Although he knew that the Mechanical Empire was very large and it was normal to encounter any strange humanistic environment, he himself had no intention of changing his outlook on life to adapt to others.

Then he might not have conflicts with some big shots in the future because of this matter.

Ren Zhong thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of a solution for a while, so he simply threw it behind him and began to seize the time to sort out the large amount of ship knowledge he had gained in the voyage ship.

Three hours later, in a strong flash of white light, the intelligent battleship Ren Zhong disappeared deep into the star gate.

Five minutes before the smart battleship disappeared, Ren Zhong sent out the technical report in time.

He hadn't used cryo-sleep for a long time, but the moment he entered the ultra-long-distance star gate, his physical sensation was somewhat similar to when he used cryo-sleep.

The person was still lying on the driver's seat. One second he was still thinking clearly, but the next second he suddenly felt his body drifting and lost consciousness. Then he seemed to have entered a hazy state, and colorful thoughts appeared in his brain. hallucination.

The time he was immersed in the hallucination was not long, and it seemed that it was less than five minutes. But when he woke up again, Ren Zhong immediately looked at the standard and spacecraft coordinate systems.

In terms of time, three months have passed.

In terms of distance, it actually spanned more than 500 light years, and officially arrived at the hub area of ​​the Far Frontier Star Territory - the Zhenjiang Star Cluster.

Ren Zhong subconsciously turned back to look at the direction of the Nanxiang star cluster, feeling a mixture of emotions in his heart.

Three months of absolute time, five minutes of somatosensory time, spanned more than 500 light years, how incredible.

It was his first exposure to technology that was completely beyond his own scientific imagination built in the twenty-first century.

This sense of far distance actually gave him a vague illusion that he could never go back, and an indescribable feeling of loneliness.

Of course, Ren Zhong knew very well that this was just an "illusion."

He took a deep breath and said it silently in his heart.

It doesn't matter, a man should travel far away and come back still young.

It's just a long trip, no need to make a fuss.

Next, the voyage ship and the smart battleship continued to sail forward. Within two days, they entered the warp subspace channel again. They will arrive at the main administrative star of the Far Frontier Star Region and the origin planet of Zhenjiang Hou in ten days. —Wangjiangxing.
