Looking at the 50 Xyrin warriors standing neatly in front of , as a half-baked Xyrin Emperor, I felt a lot of pressure.
This feeling was kind of like wearing a fake police uniform with a fake police badge all day, scamming people on the street, and then suddenly encountering a team of real, tall and mighty policen. However, my situation was more severe. Not only were they not small-ti cops, but fully ard Xyrin warriors, and I wasn't just wearing fake police attire, I had beco their Emperor and even kidnapped one of their Imperial Generals. God knows how they identify NT-level authority of the Xyrin Emperor. If it was Pandora's recognition system that had a problem, I'm in for so fun...
When I was about to lose my nerve, the leading warrior finally spoke up, "Authorization complete... It is an honor to et you, unfamiliar Emperor. We are the loyal warriors of the great Xyrin Emperor Sandora. I am Carn-3575, a field-defense heavy infantry."
My heart instantly eased.
Regardless of the thod they used to determine my authority, for now, my identity as Emperor could still be recognized within the Xyrin Empire.
Unlike , who knew little about the Xyrin Empire, Pandora imdiately gleaned relevant information from their self-introduction. She quickly pulled out another badge from behind her back (I didn't even bother to wonder where she hid it anymore), which read: "Are you the Revenge Army?"
The big soldier in front of gave another sharp salute and answered loudly, "Yes, sir!"
Watching such a fierce guy salute and address a loli as his superior, why did I find it so funny?
However, instead of the hilarity, I was more intrigued by their army's title. The na "Revenge Army" seed to have so unusual aning, similar to the "Pandora Heavy Equipnt Corps" currently freeloading on Earth, just another army's na?
Pandora saw the confusion on my face and, knowing well, quickly guessed my curiosity. She introduced through spiritual connection, "Emperor Sandora is a well-known belligerent Xyrin Emperor, who once led her army alone to campaign in the Seventh Day Zone. In 12 years, she destroyed twenty sinful civilizations, earning the title 'Battle Song Princess.' The Revenge Army is the main force under Emperor Sandora, famous for its strong field combat ability and Avenger's suicide attacks — the last recorded campaign was an expedition to the Helenda Star System an unknown ti ago. After that, the empire fell into dormancy, and we have since lost track of the army's situation."
I nodded, then turned to the heavy infantryman who called himself Carn-3575 and asked, "How long have you been in this world? It would be best to provide a detailed account of your experiences here."
"After losing contact with the empire around fifty-seven thousand years ago, we were stranded in this world. Most spatial equipnt, including the long-range space jump system, was disrupted by unknown energy. During this ti, we have been at continuous war with so force affected by the Abyss here. Until recently, so of our equipnt resud operation. My soldiers and I were ordered to this area to test whether the Silavis Space Positioning thod could activate the long-range space jump system, but as you saw, we were attacked by a large number of magical beasts."
I nodded with a serious face and said, "Hmm, your report is very valuable." Then turned to Pandora and asked, "What does he an?"
Lin Xue broke out in a cold sweat: "So you didn't understand a thing after all that listening? Why were you acting so serious?"
Even Pandora's usually unperturbed face showed a hint of oddness, then she raised the ever-present, ever-changing badge again: "In simple terms, they were trapped in this world about sixty thousand years ago and have been fighting until recently, when their situation started to change."
Why not say so in the first place? Adding so many technical terms, who can understand that?
A war lasting nearly sixty thousand years, probably only Xyrin Empire warriors could endure that. It's hard to imagine how they got through those years, and more surprising was that, with the Xyrin Empire Army's terrifying destructive power, after sixty thousand years, this planet hadn't been completely destroyed. In fact, its environntal conditions looked pretty good, a situation hard to believe. After thinking about it, I could only attribute this to the author's laziness, unwilling to write more...
At this ti, Carn suddenly spoke: "Honorable Emperor Chen Jun, our emperor has received news of your arrival and invites you to visit our headquarters."
I was taken aback, then realized that the Xyrin Apostles could conduct remote spiritual connections at any ti. Probably while reporting to just now, he had already contacted the Xyrin Emperor nad Sandora.
If I had received an invitation from a Xyrin Emperor before eting Carn, I wouldn't have dared to go — who knows if my inexplicably obtained emperor identity would hold up. But now, having basically confird my identity could pass their authority recognition system, I was quite interested in eting the real Xyrin Emperor.
I nodded and said, "How far is your headquarters from here?"
Carn replied, "About a quarter of this planet's circumference."
I: "..."
Pandora flexed her arms and then turned her gaze to Lin Xue and . Instantly, I felt my muscles shiver all over — if we had to travel as Pandora usually did, the two of us fragile carbon-based lives would definitely not survive!
Fortunately, what we feared didn't happen — Carn's transportation could accommodate the three of us.
********************************************************************************************* Little Star Line *********************************************************************************************
Sitting in the high-class cabin of the Xyrin transport ship, Lin Xue was excitedly wandering around, wishing she could find a screwdriver to dismantle these instrunts for research.
After a while, unable to bear it anymore, I stepped forward, pinned her to her seat and said, "Alright, stop embarrassing Earthlings!"
"It's a spaceship! A real spaceship!" Lin Xue, though pressed into her seat, was still restless, waving her arms and saying, "It's a real alien spaceship! Are we in outer space now?"
"Didn't you hear them say this is just an atmospheric shuttle? Hey — stop fiddling with things, who'll fix it if you break sothing?"
Hearing that, Lin Xue abandoned the thought of pressing all those buttons, then looked at with wonder and asked, "I still can't believe it, are you really... the Emperor of the Xyrin Empire?"
"You've asked that seventeen tis already."
"Are you really human?"
"You've asked that even more..."
"Amazing..."
"Look, you're a senior leader in the Superpower Team, right? Now you are the first human to make official contact with aliens, so can you act more like a big shot?"
"You're lecturing ? Do you have the deanor of a big shot?"
"...Forget I said anything."
If no one told you, could you connect this scene with a historic eting between the Imperial Leader and a human Superpower Team's leader?
Lin Xue was still excited, and I couldn't be bothered to pay her more attention. Instead, I curiously asked Pandora, who was sitting silently on one side, "Pandora, what else do you know about that Xyrin Emperor nad Sandora?"
"Possesses an amazing battlefield command ability." This was written on the card in Pandora's hand.
"What else?" I asked.
An enormous X appeared on the card.
Pandora, could it be you really ignored everything unrelated to warfare?
Looks like it will take quite a long journey to turn Pandora into a normal, doll-loving, and brother-cuddling, cute loli...
At this mont, we suddenly felt a slight tremor.
The cabin door slid open silently, Carn walked in, saluted, and said, "Report! We have arrived at the base!"
