Survival of the Stars: Rise of the Fourth Scourge

It will take some time before they can be put on the battlefield.

In the next few days, as usual, Li Meng didn't go anywhere.

As the days go by, the day of departure finally arrives.

Another new day.

In the orbit above the North Pole of Qi Wuxing, a fleet has already assembled and is on standby.

The fleet consists of 32 giant ships.

16 Cobra destroyers, 12 Firestorm-class frigates, and 4 Lunar-class cruisers.

32 giant ships, divided into four squadrons.

Each squadron consists of a Lunar-class cruiser, three Firestorm-class escorts, and four Cobra destroyers.

At the same time, Yuanxing, in the hall outside the master bedroom.

By the sink, Marianne was on her knees, her head bowed.

She heard footsteps, and the "Wang" was walking towards this side.

After a while, she lowered her head and saw a pair of feet.

Is it the "king"'s feet?
Standing in front of Marian, Li Meng stretched out his right hand and pinched Marian's chin, making her look up at him.

Looking at Marianne's beautiful face, Li Meng smiled and said, "It seems that you are really a beauty when you are young."

Marianne didn't know how to respond to the words of "King", so she could only remain silent.

Without continuing to tease Marianne, Li Meng withdrew his hand.

"Get up!"

Marianne was moved by the sound and stood up.

"It's okay for you to come here today. After returning, let the nuns enrich their knowledge. Although fighting skills are very important, I hope that you can be more versatile. In the future, you will be deeply responsible and will become a stable leader." The most important part of the imperial system."

Marianne lowered her head slightly and replied, "Yes!"

"Go, after the construction of the Sanctuary is completed, you will have a better "home"."

After saluting the eagle to Li Meng, Marian took two steps back, then turned and left.

Looking at Marianne's back, Li Meng looked pensive.

These days, when he is idle, he is also thinking about the future of the empire.

It is to inherit the imperial regime system of the old era and get out the Supreme Lord Council.

Or innovation, everything from scratch.

If starting from scratch, how should the system of the new regime be designed?

The disadvantages of the regime in the old empire are very obvious, and it seems unreasonable to follow the old path.

He is a "king" and even a "living saint".

He wants to innovate, but it is just a matter of thought, and no one dares to disobey him.

The Mechanicus didn't dare, and those awakened nobles didn't even dare.

But what kind of regime is the most perfect, so that the empire can go on forever?

This is a question with no answer.

There is no perfect political system, because people's hearts cannot be controlled.

No matter how perfect the political system is, as long as it is controlled by humans, problems will arise over time.

Li Meng also thought about handing over the top of the pyramid of power to AI supervision.

The people below just need to execute according to the constitution.

Law enforcement requires a sword, and a Battle Sister is the perfect person to do so.

But the hidden dangers of AI are also obvious. Once it crosses the border, it will cause serious disasters.

If AI is restricted, it cannot learn and evolve by itself, and its ability cannot be guaranteed.

"Do you still have to wait..."

Looking away from Marian's back, Li Meng shook his head.

Alternatives to artificial intelligence already exist, and it depends on Donald's strength.

"Xiaoqing, Xiaobai, it's time to go..."

After the words fell, the golden pool water was rippling, and two black shadows, one black and one white, jumped out of the water and wrapped around Li Meng's wrist.

It's Xiaoqing and Xiaobai, they seem to like playing in the bathroom very much.

Irina, who was at the side, saw Xiaoqing and Xiaobai, and couldn't help taking a step back.

At first she thought that "Wang" had bought a pair of black and white bracelets from somewhere.

But one day, the two bracelets suddenly came alive and turned into two snakes.

It gave her a big jump at the time.

It was finally learned that Xiaoqing and Xiaobai were pets adopted by "Wang".

Although I know that Xiaoqing and Xiaobai will not hurt people, humans have a natural fear of snakes.

Irina is naturally no exception.

Seeing Irina facing Xiaoqing, Xiaobai was still a little uncomfortable.

Li Meng smiled, stepped forward, grabbed Irina's waist, and pulled her into his arms.

"Irina, I'm not here, I will hand over the entire Terra Empire to you, do it well."

Li Meng is quite clear about the situation of Draven's family.

Not that Irina herself had told him.

Instead, I learned from the mouths of two little girls, Ai Li and Ai Lin.

Today, the Terra Empire does not have a sound political system, and the government affairs of the empire are basically handed over to the Draven family.

Like the Mechanicus and the Imperial Navy, they all do their own thing, and it is unrealistic for them to manage government affairs.

With a slight smile, Irina nodded and said, "Well, Wang, leave it to me, I won't let you down."

Smiling, Li Meng pinched Irina's face.

"That's it, I'm leaving!"

With that said, Li Meng let go of Irina's waist and took a step back.

In Irina's eyes, Li Meng turned into a white light and disappeared.

Irina has long been familiar with this miraculous scene.

"Wang" is a living saint with unpredictable power, nothing surprising.

On the other side, in the bridge of the flagship of the Terra Empire.

A white light emerged from the void, and Li Meng appeared beside the astropath.

"king?"

Seeing the sudden appearance of "King", everyone on the bridge hurriedly half-kneeled on the ground and performed the eagle salute.

The bridge space of Lunar-class cruisers is much larger than that of escort ships and destroyers, and it is also more luxurious.

"Get up!"

Everyone stood up in unison.

Ralph greeted him even more.

"Wang, where are we going to gather with such great fanfare?"

On the large captain's chair, Li Meng sat down.

Click on the gauntlet, and the star map suddenly appeared on the bridge window.

"Trouble with the pirates."

Destroy the pirates?

Why bother with pirates?

Ralph only had puzzlement in his eyes.

At this time, shouldn't they keep a low profile and try not to attract the attention of alien civilizations?

"Well, Wang, can I ask why?"

He didn't hide it, Li Meng explained: "There are some things that we don't like to come forward, but pirates don't have such problems."

Hearing this, Ralph showed understanding.

It seems that the "king" wants to control the pirates to do something.

"Let's go, let's go to Giant Sword Star..."

Following Li Meng's order, outside, the fleet on orbit moved.

The engines at the stern of each ship spewed out dazzling white tail flames.

The huge thrust pushed the ships to move, and flew deep into the starry sky.

And this scene was watched by some people.

Pan-Galaxy United States, temporary capital space station.

In a certain office, Wood, who was working, was disturbed.

"President, the Terra Empire has assembled a huge fleet that is leaving the Qiwu Star Gravity Well, and there are signs of a long voyage. May we contact the Terra Empire and ask them the purpose of this fleet assembly?"
