Chapter 2163 Tang Xiao’s Report (Part )

2164. Tang Xiao’s Report (Part )

In fact, Ourega didn't go far. He just didn't want to talk much with Tang Xiao yesterday.

However, when he drove the tattered Revenge-class destroyer over to receive Tang Xiao's gift, Tang Xiao almost laughed out loud at the sight of this extremely miserable Revenge-class destroyer.

He didn't know what had happened to Orega yet, but it was obvious that his journey to this universe did not seem to be so pleasant.

However, Orega was very satisfied with this flagship model of the Providence-class destroyer/aircraft carrier. It was definitely much better than the Vengeance-class destroyer he had grabbed in the Endor system before. At least it didn't have to be shrunk in the cargo hold because of its large size.

Before leaving, Tang Xiao asked Orega again, "Dream Sisters, what is their status on the planet Harunkar?"

"If you don't want to die, you'd better not go there. Even for me, it will be very dangerous to go there before I really return to my peak condition." Olega was in a much better mood after getting a new battleship, and he patiently explained to Tang Xiao: "They have fallen into the planetary will of Harunkar and cannot extricate themselves. It was they who called me to come to you and then find the Son of Harunkar. Only in this way can they be freed. After I find the Son of Harunkar, I will come back."

Tang Xiao nodded and said, "Although our presence near the Yawen galaxy is very weak, it is not to say that we have no presence. I will try my best to help you."

He was wondering in his heart what conditions the Dream Sisters had offered to Orega that made Orega so willing to work for them.

"You are very valuable, yes." Orega still had that arrogant look, not only because of the arrogance that came from the Protoss, but also because of the conceit as the strongest top figure, although he did look very miserable now.

"Give up all your fantasies about the Kal'ai Protoss as soon as possible and join forces with me." Orega said, "You'd better cherish the opportunity to talk to me on an equal footing! When I regain my lost power, you will be nothing in front of me!"

After saying that, his figure disappeared immediately, and he probably went directly to the bridge of the battleship.

Tang Xiao shook his head, his expression extremely solemn.

He naturally knew what Orrega meant by the peak. Orrega, formed by the fusion of seven Dark Templars, possessed power close to that of a god. Even in the later stages of the StarCraft story, when super-powerful beings such as the god-level creature Xel'Naga, Amon the Fallen, and the Xel'Naga version of Kerrigan gathered, even if Orrega was slightly weaker, he still had enough power to compete with them.

If he had a choice, Tang Xiao would never awaken a being like Orega. Not only because of his great power, but also because Orega was an unreasonable lunatic who only wanted revenge on the Kal'ai Protoss. Even in the plot, Zeratul and others persuaded him earnestly, but he did not change his mind at all.

Zerg invasion? World-destroying disaster? In his opinion, none of them were as important as revenge against the Khalai Protoss.

Moreover, the seven-in-one Orega has an unimaginable ability to control the mind. The mind control of the Protoss is different from that of the Grisks. The control of the Protoss is more thorough, almost changing a person's appearance and making him their loyal slave. But the disadvantage is that they can only control one person at a time, and cannot control a planet with a few people like the Grisks.

Therefore, if Orega is allowed to wreak havoc in the Milky Way, he will definitely be able to gather an extremely loyal and powerful army. This is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is that once he starts to act, it is possible that everyone around him will become untrustworthy.

Because even if he was a loyal old minister before, he might be controlled by Orega one day later and become a spy with no bottom line.

However, Tang Xiao could not control Orega's awakening.

He had already learned from the main brain about the "prisoner" level of people. Prisoner level people are all people who are forcibly imprisoned in the mothership's hibernation chamber because they are extremely powerful and difficult to control. There are no more than 50 such people in the entire hibernation chamber, and each of them can be called a galactic disaster.

Unlike the previous levels of ordinary, elite, and master, as long as the conditions set by them before boarding the ship are met, they can be awakened. The legendary level requires some communication and negotiation, but there will be no obstacles.

The legendary level is a little more difficult because you don't know who can be awakened, but as long as the conditions are met, you can be awakened. Tang Xiao judged that setting this rule similar to drawing cards is not for randomness, but a more rigorous screening.

Because you can't see the conditions of those legendary characters, you can't meet them in a targeted manner. Legendary characters are very powerful, and their requirements are naturally more stringent, so if you make targeted preparations, even if you awaken them, maybe your conditions are met, but the overall environment is not what the other party wants, then the result will naturally be a breakup or even a life-and-death struggle, which is not good for anyone in the end.

Therefore, if the conditions for legendary characters are not seen, then those who can meet the awakening conditions are those who can accept the current status of the Principality of Dawn. In other words, Tang Xiao absolutely does not expect some powerful and lawful characters to appear on the awakening list - such as Superman. If the old man wakes up, the first thing he does is to fight with himself, the "dictator of the evil empire".

But the prisoner level… is completely different.

No matter what the previous levels were, at least the most basic point was loyalty to the Fourth Civilization. At the very least, they could identify with it and have a favorable impression of it. As long as they could awaken someone, they could negotiate terms. At least the other party would hope that the Fourth Civilization would become better, and they could also benefit from it.

But the prisoner level has no such limit at all. Every person at this level can become the final boss in any world view. They can't have any recognition or good feelings towards the Fourth Civilization. With their power, everything in front of them is the object of their control, demand, and rule! For someone like Orega, even if Tang Xiao hasn't heard the report from the Dawn Planet, just looking at the battered Revenge-class destroyer, it doesn't look like he walked out of there calmly.

Moreover, for a prisoner-level character, awakening is completely uncontrollable. This awakening, in the words of the main brain, is closer to "resonance", and this resonance is more in Tang Xiao himself.

Olega was awakened not because two dark Jedi Knights merged to become the Dark Archon, but because the Dark Archon recognized Tang Xiao and chose to merge with him in order to save Tang Xiao and resolve the crisis at the time. Tang Xiao, who possessed a part of the power of the Dark Archon, resonated with Olega, so Olega was able to break free from the shackles of the mothership and finally escape.

So, this is the problem we face now.

Orega has appeared, and is undoubtedly out of control. He even wants to control Tang Xiao and the Principality of Dawn. And the request he made is something Tang Xiao will never agree to. Destroy the Kalai Protoss? Tang Xiao is not stupid enough to do that.

Putting aside the fact that the Protoss nowadays are no longer divided into Khalai and Nerazim, it can be simply said that the Protoss nowadays are playing an increasingly important role. Moreover, during this war between the Unknown Star Region and the Grisk Hegemony, the Protoss warriors who are loyal and powerful also left a very deep impression on Tang Xiao.

It was impossible for him to give up the Protoss in exchange for the so-called alliance of the madman Orrega.

But at the same time, he couldn't possibly turn against Orega now. Even if Orega wasn't in his prime right now, it would be extremely difficult for him to kill Orega... Apart from anything else, just looking at his current short-distance warp ability, it was clear that Tang Xiao could beat him now, but it was basically impossible for him to kill him.

The Dream Sisters were also in danger, and they somehow sensed the existence of Orega and asked him for help, which meant that they believed that only Orega and Mace Windu could help them.

While thinking like this, Tang Xiao returned to the planet Dawn.

The return of Grand Duke Dawn excited the entire Principality of Dawn. Especially the Regency Committee headed by Edel Wulan, because until now, the news of Tang Xiao's disappearance was also a strictly kept secret by them, but in this way, almost the entire Principality of Dawn was under pressure from them. And they lacked Tang Xiao's power and prestige, and it was difficult for them to carry out various tasks.

Edel Ulan was caught between Helmut Zemo and Francis Underwood, and was overwhelmed by the open and secret struggles between the two factions.

So when Tang Xiao secretly returned to the planet Dawn, he immediately received the warmest welcome - mountains of decisions and documents.

Tang Xiao had no time to rest. He first convened a summit of the top core leadership of the Principality of Dawn and listened to reports from Helmut Zemo and Francis Underwood, as well as some confidential events, including the awakening of Ulrega and the disaster in which he almost captured the Glory mothership, as well as the Galactic Empire's sudden determination to take action against the Trade Federation, and the two sides were engaged in a brutal tug-of-war.

The next day, Tang Xiao convened the Galaxy Council of the Principality of Dawn. While making a public appearance, he announced to everyone the success of the Principality of Dawn's exploration of unknown star regions, confirmed the formal incorporation of the Chiss Territory into the Principality of Dawn, and announced that the Principality of Dawn had won a decisive victory in the war against Grisk hegemony.

At the same time, he also announced a series of cooperation between the Principality of Dawn and Chiss Territory, including sending officers to the Chiss Territory Military Academy for study, helping Chiss Territory to build a more advanced industrial system, and even allowing Chiss officers to serve in the Navy of the Principality of Dawn. The first batch of Chiss officers had 150 people, including 2 deputy commanders of the squadron, 20 captains of the battleship, 50 captains of the cruiser, and the rest were military staff.

In addition, the Chiss representative Iliz-al-Alani-Chiara issued a joint declaration on behalf of the Chiss and the Principality of Dawn. The declaration stated that the Chiss would advance and retreat together with the Principality of Dawn, share honor and disgrace, fight to the end to build a more prosperous home, and to protect their country from invasion. At the same time, the declaration also pointed out the dangers of the galaxy such as the Grisk hegemony and Mnggal-Mnggal, which must be completely eliminated from the perspective of intelligent civilization.

These collaborations were previously conducted in secret, but now they are openly publicized in a big way, which is also to build momentum and demonstrate to the Galactic Empire, warning them that the Principality of Dawn has pulled itself out of the quagmire of the unknown star region. No one can predict what will happen next.

However, the Principality of Dawn issued another statement regarding the conflict between the Galactic Empire and the Trade Federation. In the statement, the Principality of Dawn expressed its regret for both sides of the conflict and hoped that both sides could find a peaceful solution and sit down for negotiations. At the same time, it also stated that in view of the escalation of the armed conflict, the Principality of Dawn would partially open the border of the planet Rendili to accept war refugees from the core circle of the Milky Way.

The most important information in this statement is that the planet Rendili opened its borders to receive war refugees. This is equivalent to allowing the Trade Alliance to transfer their own industries and wealth to the planet Rendili under the pretext of transferring refugees, and then find a way to transfer them to the new headquarters of the Northern Trade Alliance.

If the Galactic Empire wanted to attack these "refugee ships", it would be morally unacceptable at least. Of course, the Galactic Empire could also say that there were military personnel on these refugee ships, so they deserved to be beaten. This is the contest between the two sides in the battlefield of public opinion.

The series of actions taken by the Principality of Dawn were very proactive and high-profile, and in fact, they were also announcing Tang Xiao's return to the Emperor Palpatine of the Galactic Empire. This might make Palpatine restrain himself in the next military operations because he was concerned about Tang Xiao's actions, and it could help the Trade Union to reduce the pressure on the front battlefield.

At the same time, Tang Xiao was already sitting in the conference room of the Prime Minister's Office of the Principality of Dawn, discussing what had just happened in the Principality of Dawn and what was about to happen.

"First, it's about Grisk Hegemony." Tang Xiao sat on his throne and turned his head to the Chis Territory representative, Admiral Chiara, and said, "Leave this matter to Chis Territory. Go back and tell Governor Sheen Morabito that if there is any military action regarding Grisk Hegemony, it must be handled with the highest priority."

"Yes." Admiral Chiara nodded.

"The Grisk Hegemony has not perished, and I think they are still a very deadly potential threat." Tang Xiao said, "The only thing I can be sure of in this battle with them is that one of their top leaders, Black Star, has been killed, so they should be quiet for a few years. But we must be prepared for their comeback."
