Chapter 379: Emperor Xingyao summoned for conferment
Xiaolong Galaxy
Jiang Hong took a shuttle and boarded the T3 Snowstorm-class light interstellar battlecruiser numbered 030.
"Commander, I'll wait for you in the conference room." A female crew member came to greet Jiang Hong as soon as she got off the shuttle.
"Okay." Jiang Hong nodded and followed the female crew member to the conference room.
This is not the first time she has boarded the T3 Blizzard-class light interstellar battlecruiser, but every time she comes up, she is still surprised by the environment here.
It’s hard to believe that these are really the interstellar battleships that the good-for-nothing baron used to bring out, and there are still dozens of them now.
But now her mood is not about this, there are more important things waiting for her.
Jiang Hong came to the door of the conference room, and the door opened automatically.
Commander Zhao Chen is sitting on the main seat, with several electronic screens in front of him. He is browsing various online channels of the Star Empire.
"Commander." Jiang Hong stood in front of Commander Zhao Chen.
"Sit down." Zhao Chen said.
"yes."
Jiang Hong sat down and looked at the man in front of her.
At this moment, she no longer dared to have any contempt for this man. She could even feel that this man had the pressure of a superior, which made her afraid to look directly at him.
Zhao Chen put away the electronic screen in front of him: "You know the news about the death of the eldest prince, right?"
"If you hadn't told me, my information channel wouldn't have known about this matter." When mentioning this matter, Jiang Hong still had a look of disbelief on her face.
If Commander Zhao Chen hadn't told her, she would probably have thought it was just a rumor.
"After all, the eldest prince is the crown prince and the future emperor of the Xingyao Empire.
Now that he has died inexplicably, if this news spreads, it will definitely cause great chaos to all walks of life in the Xingyao Empire.
It is estimated that the royal family has issued a hush-hush order, and currently only some high-level people know about this matter." Zhao Chen said seriously.
If it weren't for the T3 Silver Rat-class light interstellar stealth reconnaissance ship, he wouldn't have known the news.
"I asked you to try to contact eldest sister, how did you do?" Zhao Chen asked.
Jiang Hong shook her head and said with some worry: "I used all the contact channels that the eldest lady left for me before, including an emergency contact channel, but I still haven't been able to contact the eldest lady."
Jiang Hong looked at Commander Zhao Chen worriedly and asked: "Is this... the eldest lady... something happened?"
Zhao Chen was silent for a moment, shook his head and said: "The eldest sister is following the royal fleet of the little princess.
The last time the little princess's royal fleet appeared was in the Imperial City Galaxy, which is the safest place in the Star Empire.
As for the inability to contact me, there should be other reasons."
Jiang Hong was still worried.
"I will find a way to find out. You continue to use your channels. Once contacted, notify me immediately!" Zhao Chen instructed.
"Yes!" Jiang Hong said.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Hong said: "Commander, there is another thing I want to report to you.
Half a day ago, Governor Beifeng sent a message, saying that he has something to discuss with you in detail.
Let you contact him as soon as possible if you have time."
Governor of the North Wind?
Contact yourself at this time?
Now the Beifeng Star Territory is still sorting out the mess, and the Governor will not come to him for nothing.
"I understand, you go back first." Zhao Chen said.
"yes."
Jiang Hong stepped back and left.
Zhao Chen began to contact Governor Beifeng.
After more than ten minutes, the two parties contacted each other.
A video window appeared in front of Zhao Chen, opposite Governor Beifeng.
It can be seen that Governor Beifeng is quite haggard. It is estimated that the previous wave of interstellar Zerg had a considerable impact on the damage caused to the North Wind Star Territory, which increased Governor Beifeng's workload.
"Your Majesty the Governor." Zhao Chen put his hand on his chest and made a noble salute.
"I came to see you before and heard from your subordinates that you were very busy?" Governor Beifeng asked casually.
"Because we are conducting technical research and development work on interstellar battleships, we rarely have contact with the outside world." Zhao Chen found a reasonable excuse.
Governor Beifeng nodded and said, "I want to tell you something serious.
Regarding your previous deeds in the North Wind Star Territory, I reported it to the Central Star Territory at that time.
I recently received feedback on your heroic performance in the North Wind Star Territory.
Emperor Xingyao will specially summon you and prepare to grant you the Xingyao Empire Warrior Badge in person. And I have received inside information. I may also grant you the title of Marquis and reward you with several star systems as a commendation.
After all, because of the disaster caused by the interstellar Zerg in the North Wind Star Territory, many lords and nobles mishandled it, resulting in serious losses; some lords were also directly killed in battle.
There are a lot of vacancies.”
Zhao Chen said seriously: "Those are what I, as an imperial noble, should do."
“Although modesty is a good thing, don’t refuse what you deserve.www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm
There is another thing. Based on the battle reports you submitted and obtained from other channels, we have compiled statistics on the enemy-annihilation performance of your Xiaolong fleet.
In addition to the above-mentioned awards, we, the North Wind Star Territory and the Central Star Territory, will also reward your fleet for its heroic battles and killing enemies.
You will be rewarded with one billion star coins!
Because we gave you this bonus, the body materials of the interstellar Zerg will be disposed of by us." Governor Beifeng said.
"Thank you, Lord Governor." Zhao Chen thanked him.
Although one hundred thousand star coins is not a lot, it is better than nothing.
"Lord Governor, due to the research on starship battleship technology, a large amount of raw materials are needed.
I don’t know if these one billion star coins can be directly converted into raw materials. I can directly send an interstellar transport ship to take over the transportation." Zhao Chen asked.
Governor Beifeng nodded and said: "This is not a problem. I will make arrangements here. Within three days, raw materials worth one billion star coins can be sent to the Arctic Fox galaxy closest to you.
When the time comes, just send your interstellar transport ship to receive it."
"Thank you, Governor." Zhao Chen thanked him again.
The raw material resources of one billion star coins can be converted into strategic reserves, which somewhat relieves Zhao Chen's urgent need.
He had contacted Li Yaqi before, and Li Yaqi was also scraping together raw material resources, but the quantity would not be too large.
"When are you going to leave for the Central Star Territory to confer the title?
This time cannot be later than the end of September.
For His Majesty's personal reward, it is best to go as early as possible." Governor Beifeng reminded.
"Okay, I'll make some preparations here. We can set off within half a month." Zhao Chen replied.
"Okay, then I would like to congratulate our Lord Xiaolong Marquis in advance." Governor Beifeng smiled and congratulated.
Zhao Chen hesitated for a moment, then he still asked: "Mr. Governor Beifeng, I have one thing to ask you."
"Whatever it is, just tell me directly."
"It's about the death of the eldest prince."
Governor Beifeng's expression suddenly changed, and he asked seriously: "Where did you get this news?"
