Chapter 224 President Lucas's Request
President Lucas's personal visit to the Tianyao Star Nature Reserve was mainly at someone's request, as he needed a favor from someone.

"I don't know if you remember the young man named Gorin, the deputy district chief of Skalan Star, who sat next to you during the meeting."

Göring?

If President Lucas only mentions the name, Liang He might not remember it.

But when he mentioned the person sitting next to her, Liang He remembered.

It seems that the deputy district head played a part in her rare public death scene.

“I remember he asked me before if I wanted to switch jobs.”

Change job?

Hoan's radar went off instantly.

Good, good, not only is Chairman Lucas targeting his employees, but there are also potential rivals he doesn't know about. They really don't care about his life or death!
The Tianyao Star Reserve clearly has the most evolved beastmen; it's the place that needs Liang He the most!
"Ahem, President Lucas, you can speak frankly. As Liang He's superior, I will consider it accordingly."

Huo An was subtly reminding President Lucas that he was not allowed to have any more designs on Liang He, and even more so, he was not allowed to help others to have designs on her!
This is no way to undermine someone's foundation!

"Okay, then I'll just tell you."

President Lucas wasn't used to stammering or hiding things.

Before coming here, I specifically went to learn about Earth's culture, intending to first get on their good side and then gradually make my move.

"This is what happened..."

With President Lucas's explanation, Huo An and Liang He finally understood the reason behind the matter.

As an ocean planet, Skalan is mostly covered by sea, and the protected areas are home to marine animals. Liang He still remembers the mermaids that Golin mentioned.

However, the once peaceful planet Skalan has recently experienced unusual phenomena in a certain area of ​​the sea.

The maritime escort team responsible for routine patrols suddenly disappeared while patrolling this area, and the maritime law enforcement team that followed also lost contact when they arrived in this area, even special signals were useless.

"After realizing that there was a problem in this sea area, the Federation also tried to send federal troops to carry out search and rescue operations, but unfortunately they found nothing and almost lost another group of people."

Goring was desperate and had no other choice but to turn to President Lucas, hoping he could ask Liang He to go to Skaran Star.

The reason for asking Chairman Lucas to step in was that when he was paying attention to Liang He being smeared by the rebel army's online trolls, Chairman Lucas spoke up for her, which clearly shows that the two have a good relationship in private.

"Don't worry! Goering didn't send Liang He to find someone."

Seeing that Hoan seemed hesitant and not entirely agreeable, President Lucas quickly explained.

“If Liang He were really in danger, I wouldn’t be making things difficult for you; I would have rejected his request from the start.”

President Lucas genuinely values ​​Liang He, a junior colleague. Whether out of a desire to cherish talent or out of a senior's care, he is unwilling to let Liang He take any risks.

"What Goering means is that Liang He can communicate with animals, right? If we can get new clues through marine animals, or even have them guide us to the missing people, that would be wonderful!"

After hearing all this, Liang He finally understood Goering's intention.

He hoped to use his ability to communicate seamlessly with animals to figure out the problem in that sea area, and even if he couldn't solve the problem, it would be good if he could save the people.

"It seems that this is indeed a tricky matter."

If it were anything else, Huo An would have a reason to help Liang He refuse, but now lives are at stake, and even the Federation Army is helpless and almost got caught, so it's no wonder that Goring thought of Liang He.

“Liang He, I respect your opinion on this matter. If you are unwilling, I will personally contact Deputy District Chief Golin and refuse him in the name of the protected area.”

Huo An was never a saint who would generously use other people's money, so he respected Liang He's wishes completely, whether she agreed or not.

“If you want to go, I will accompany you to Skalan Star.” Unlike the last business trip to Green Field Star, this time there will obviously be danger, so Huo An naturally cannot let Liang He go alone.

The reason he wanted to follow was naturally because his beast form was a Kunpeng, which could fly and dive into the water. He could protect Liang He when she was in danger, and even help in the search for missing persons.

"Brother Huo, I want to go."

After careful consideration, and under the expectant gaze of President Lucas, Liang He decided to go to Skalan Star.

The reason is simple: for life.

Whether human or animal.

Having just experienced iron poisoning, she values ​​life even more now.

"Moreover, based on the chairman's description just now, I think there might be something the rebels are involved in."

The sea area, which had always been peaceful, suddenly became a strange place. Liang He did not believe it was a natural disaster.

Her intuition told her that the rebels might be behind it all.

"Rebels?"

Liang He's words made Chairman Lucas and Hoan frown. They really hadn't expected the rebels to be involved.

"Could I be overthinking it?"

What are the rebels doing causing trouble on this ocean planet?
Will they turn marine animals into ferocious beasts?

But at most, ocean planets like Skalan would suffer. Planets with more land should be less affected, right?

“Some animals are amphibious, and I’ve heard Deputy District Chief Goring mention that mermaids exist on Skalan. Maybe we can make use of them?”

For example, using the mermaid's song to confuse the Federation army... Isn't that what fairy tales say?

Liang He didn't know that mermaids were also beastmen, so it's normal for her to make this connection.

However, Huo An and Chairman Lucas believed that Liang He's concerns were not unfounded, as the rebels' actions were always unpredictable and no one could say for sure.

“I understand. I will communicate with Goring about this and inform him that you have agreed to go to Skalan Star so that he can make preparations in advance.”

Regardless, President Lucas was very grateful to Liang He for giving him the face to make a trip to Skalan Star. No matter the outcome, he would remember this favor.

"Can I take them with me?"

Although she was there to help, Liang He was still very worried about the furry creatures.

Moreover, it hadn't been long since she returned from her business trip to Green Star, and she was already having to part ways with them again. Liang He was reluctant and unaccustomed to it.

"A full rollout is unlikely."

Huo An raised an eyebrow as he looked at Mo Jin Wang Hu and Cang Lan Lie Ying, who were openly eavesdropping with their ears perked up.

"Xuan Jiao's body has not fully recovered and he needs to continue to rest."

The journey to Skalan is long and arduous, and given the Iron-Eating Beast's current physical condition, it is unlikely to withstand the arduous journey.

“Cyril’s adoptive parent, Eureka, is coming to visit him soon, so it’s inconvenient for him to come along.”

The water poisoning incident became common knowledge, and naturally, it couldn't be kept secret from the emperor and queen of the empire.

Although she knew her beloved son was unaffected, she couldn't help but worry, so she wanted to take some time during her political visit to visit Cyril.
