Chapter 2217 The Sun Watches
Standard Terra Calendar 970.M41
Sun Star Domain, Solar System, Pluto, Hersonic Gate
"It's finally here, the solar system, the cradle of mankind, the heart of the empire."
Although he was mentally prepared, when a series of flashing spots appeared in the distance of the observation window, Soshiyang still couldn't stop surging.
Not only him, but all the warriors, and all the other warships, gathered near the observation window, staring seriously and curiously at the gradually enlarged galaxy outline and the pale planet - Pluto and its several moons.
As the latecomer of the Milky Way, it was after countless hardships and hindering the galaxy that it finally became a great clan in the Milky Way that could not be ignored. Although the long nights later almost destroyed human civilization, another great leader who came out of the solar system made human beings glorious again.
The solar system is great because of Terra, and Terra is great because of the emperor, so any devout believer in the state religion, if he has the opportunity and ability, will definitely take a pilgrimage to Terra.
Due to the key position of the imperial capital, the solar system naturally became the stellar system with the highest population density and the busiest routes in the empire. Pluto, as the most edge planet in the solar system, is not only the gateway to the entire stellar system, but also the main subspace jump point. There is a subspace star gate called the Hersonic Gate near it. It is said that it was built in the Dark Age and can be more stable in and out of the solar system and easier to enter and exit the solar system. Therefore, ships heading to the solar system need to jump into the physical universe here, corresponding to it Uranus, which is the main channel to leave the solar system.
Just around the fleet of the Astral Knights, you can see a group of ships that have just left the sub-space jumping nodes moving along the channel. Among them are gorgeous merchant ships, huge pilgrimage ships, or round-shaped transport ships, and warships with a loud muzzle, which fill the entire void channel, which can be said to be a competition of thousands of sails and hundreds of boats competing for the current, and the scene is extremely spectacular.
After the Great Rebellion and the Wild Beast War, the Empire attached great importance to the defense of the solar system, which also made the current solar system and its surrounding defense network the most powerful stellar system ever defended, from the huge orbital fortress group on the moon, to the fortress group among the layers of hydrogen clouds on Jupiter, to the deep-sky star fortress in the halo star belt, in order to protect the sacred solar system, the Empire established hundreds or even more extremely huge defensive fortress groups inside and outside the solar system, and deployed a billion-dollar weapon system to point to the deep space, ready to evaporate any idiot trying to challenge the overlord status of human galaxy at any time.
In addition, there are entire space fleets that constantly cruise and defend between these fortress networks, not letting go of any potential threats that may threaten the solar system, and are ready to support the entire defense system at any time. They are also collectively called the Sun Fleet, and can also be said to be the most powerful fleet in the empire.
It can be said that in most cases, the solar system's defense is almost impeccable.
"Captain of the Battle..."
At this time, the voice of the communication chief suddenly came through the brass horn.
"A signal with advanced naval authority sends a message that they are going to board the ship to check, and it is every ship."
Soshiyang immediately withdrew his gaze and frowned.
"Who?"
"Their label is...Sun Watch."
Soshiyan had never heard of this name, so he immediately summoned Faisal. When the other party heard that it was the sun watching, he quickly explained to Soshiyan:
"This is a battle cluster of the imperial guards."
"Imperial Guards? Shouldn't they all stay in the palace?"
"Captain, you don't know that although the defense system of the solar system is very powerful, it is also composed of mortals after all. Facing cunning and terrifying enemies, there is always a possibility of being broken through. Therefore, the most powerful part of the entire outer defense system of Terra is not these seemingly powerful fortress networks, but the imperial guards from the Sun Watch. This is a large cluster of several shield guard companies. The members of the members all swore to defend the peripheral defense system of the throne world and regard themselves as the first line of defense of the palace to ensure that the enemy cannot get close to the solar system and the sacred Terra as much as possible. For this reason, they will regularly patrol the entire solar system, the surrounding star systems and a large number of deep space facilities, thereby clearing and searching for various dangers and potential dangers. They are also the few imperial guards that outsiders can occasionally see."
But this did not convince Soshiyang.
"But aren't there two imperial guards on the ship? Can't they let them communicate on their own? Astart would not accept the insult of aboarding the ship to search."
Faisal suddenly looked embarrassed. He rubbed his hands and said tactfully:
“Actually that’s the case…”
"Envoy Faisal, this is my bottom line. If I have to search, I would rather not accept any honor and order the fleet to turn around and leave."
"This...No, don't be so over-examination, actually-"
"I'm not overly sensation. Didn't you hear my tone very calm?"
Soshiyan said in a gentle voice the words that made Faisal frightened.
"I just conveyed my decision to you. It was a decision, not a threat, nor a temptation. You and I have been together for a while, and I believe we should be familiar with my style."
Faisal whispered for a moment, and whispered:
"You wait, wait for a moment."
Soshiyang nodded and said nothing. Faisal hurriedly left. Soshiyang guessed that he was probably going to communicate with the two mysterious imperial guards who basically never leave the cabin.
About ten minutes later, Faisal, with a somewhat nervous expression, returned to the bridge.
"Soshyang Battle Commander, the communication has been made there. They will not board the ship for inspection again, but..."
"Please say something if you have something to do."
"The Shield Guard Company Commander wants to board the ship and meet you in person."
Soshiyang blinked, then spread his hands.
"How can I, a commander of the Imperial Guard, refuse the invitation? I immediately ordered the Eternal Loyalty to open the flight deck... But I was curious, why were they using the Navy's signal channel?"
"Sun Watch basically has no ship of its own, and most of the time it is deployed on naval ships or starship trading ships."
Soshiyang nodded thoughtfully.
"I understand, then please ask the Shield Guard Company Commander to come here to talk."
At the same time, the news that the Imperial Guard was about to go to the flagship was spread among the soldiers. Many people ran to the bridge to observe out of curiosity. After all, the Imperial Guard was almost no different from the myth. Even Li Lin dragged and dragged Sabrin and other partners to the Eternal Loyalty.
