Kilsager and Chat Groups

"Your Majesty Valerian, Renault has just brought back some...astounding good news?" Matt Horner rushed to the young emperor, his jaw nearly dropping when he received Renault's message.

"So what earth-shattering thing did our marshal do after abandoning his work, something that would shock the entire city of Koprulu?"

Since joining the chat group, Renault has been like a ghost, disappearing from time to time and leaving a mountain of work for Matt Horner and Valerian to handle.

The two were already used to his irresponsible behavior.

However, Renault's behavior of only caring about his own enjoyment while leaving them with all the heavy workload still infuriated them.

The documents, which were already in a mess but still manageable, were now almost entirely blank and handed to them.

As soon as there's the slightest disturbance in the chat group, he'll just abandon everything and run away, leaving the files intact for them.

“Well, he went to… Earth, and he even conquered a city for us,” Matt Horner said carefully. “He wants to make it part of the Empire.”

"Oh, Earth... What! Earth!"

Valerian had been listening to the report casually, but when he heard the word "Earth," he suddenly stood up, his face filled with shock, and asked, "He's fought his way into the Milky Way?!"

For humans who came to the Koprulu Sector, the word Earth has a special meaning.

Those who were exiled here back then came from Earth.

Three prison ships, carrying hundreds of thousands of criminals, brought them to this dangerous sector.

These criminals and their descendants, after three hundred years and countless battles and conflicts, finally established the human empire we know today.

However, just as the first emperor of the Empire, Arcturus Mengsk, was establishing his nation, Earth sent people.

The UED Seventh Expeditionary Fleet dealt a heavy blow to this emerging empire. Not only that, they also defeated the Zerg and Protoss remnants, who were then in a slump.

This fleet was incredibly powerful for a time, almost pushing the empire to the brink of destruction.

However, the UED launched indiscriminate attacks on other races, an action that led the Protoss, who had just lost their homeworld, and the Zerg, whose Overmind had died, to regard them as enemies.

As it turned out, even the remnants of the Protoss forces, along with a portion of the numerous Zerg swarms, were enough to inflict heavy damage on the UED.

Under Amon's control, the Queen of Blades seized control of all the Zerg through a series of treacherous schemes.

When the number of Zerg became so vast that it completely blotted out space and pressed towards the UED 7th Expeditionary Fleet, this once-powerful fleet was annihilated in this horrific war.

Now, only a few scattered soldiers remain active in the sector, but they don't even have a single warship.

Nevertheless, the UED's strength still far surpasses that of the Terran Empire.

After all, UED represents the interstellar empire of Earth, the origin of humanity, while the Terran Empire is a nation founded by a group of criminal descendants.

The difference in strength between the two is obvious.

“It’s not the capital planet of UED, it’s the home world of one of Reynolds’ group members.” Matt Horner coughed lightly, looking at the distraught Valerian.

Valerian sat back down, his mind filled with a multitude of thoughts.

Although he knew this might not be their true place of origin, Earth was undoubtedly a place of special significance to them.

It is not just a planet, but the mother that nurtured the first humans.

I wonder if those original criminals felt a deep longing for their home planet.

“Earth,” Valerian said softly, rubbing his forehead.

He didn't know why Renault was so confident in successfully colonizing the world, but he knew Renault and knew that he wouldn't make a decision easily; Renault must have his own considerations and plans.

After careful consideration, Valerian finally made his decision: "Let the older generation go. Although they may have forgotten Earth, some of them have probably heard of this place. It will be a difficult journey, but a worthwhile opportunity."

Matt Horner nodded in agreement.

However, he offered a suggestion: “No problem, Your Majesty. But before that, we need to send some armed personnel to Earth to ensure safety. It would be best to send a few battlecruisers to deal with any potential threats.”

Hearing Matt Horner's words, Valerian frowned slightly: "The past?!"

Renault was surprised to find that this Holy Mother was surprisingly easy to get along with; although her political talent was not outstanding, she was undoubtedly a kind-hearted and compassionate leader.

In this world full of hypocrisy and lies, she is like a shining pearl of humanity.

When the city learned that the creatures called "aliens" were actually human, it was filled with commotion and excitement.

People began to speculate: Could it be that the long-lost astronauts have finally found their way home? Or is there an environment similar to Earth on another planet that has given rise to the same intelligent life?

If Renault heard these questions, he would not hesitate to tell them that humans are unique to Earth, but the Earthlings in their land are enemies of the Terran Empire.

However, at this moment, as Renault watched the departing figure of the Holy Emperor, the incomplete silhouette only made her appear more determined and resilient.

Tina stood to the side, silently watching all of this, her heart filled with self-reproach.

At the same time, she secretly rejoiced that she hadn't hit the Holy Emperor on the head, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.

After the matter was resolved, Chen Huijie and Cang Lanxing decided to return to their own worlds.

El boarded the Genesis to study with the Protoss.

Voyles and El agreed to a mecha duel. El was very interested in this big alien. If he could learn his martial arts and apply them to his mecha... El couldn't even imagine how cool that would be.

The portal opened again, and the Genesis returned to Earth with officials and armed forces from the Terran Empire.

Within its ecological ring, several Minotaur-class battlecruisers hover, these black steel behemoths becoming the cornerstone of the Terran Empire's rule over the planet.

Hundreds of transport planes took off from the Genesis and landed on the cleared tarmac.

However, even faster were the airdrop pods full of Marines, streaking across the sky like crimson meteors.

When the people of the Terran Empire set foot on Earth, it signified that these descendants of criminals had returned to the cradle of humanity.
