......

Commander-in-Chief Qi pulled up a 3D model of the city's defense system: "There's an energy shield above the First Military Region's air defense zone; it will be retracted before noon. Will your Prince-class destroyer require Earth fleet escort for its near-landing?"

"Thank you," Minister Greta said, "but it's not necessary. The Prince Ship is quite large, and the air vortex it creates during descent might stir up the rotation of nearby objects, causing a collision. The Prince Ship has the most advanced technology in the universe, and there is no danger in the local universe that can threaten it, so there is no need for escort."

What need is there for escorts for the Prince-class destroyer? It would be good enough if it didn't crush other aircraft.

Hilarious! The Zerg Empire's crown prince's flagship is the greatest danger in this universe.

If humans are not clear-headed enough to want to monitor the landing process of the Prince, there is no need for them to do so. If the Prince really wants to harm the Earth, it doesn't need to land before attacking you.

This is why there have been very few instances in the universe where civilizations of vastly different statuses have established diplomatic relations.

The stronger party always arouses the vigilance of the weaker party.

Who wants to come full of enthusiasm only to be met with suspicion? It's like being powerful is a sin.

"Loosening the shield might put the Defense Office on edge for a couple of days," the Alliance Director said with a smile, pulling up the Alliance Office's address book and issuing the de-escalation plan. "However, it's worth making an exception for your royal family's visit."

"Thank you," Minister Greta nodded in acknowledgment.

"Then the landing problem is solved."

Commander-in-Chief Qi of the human race didn't say anything, quickly scrolled through the approval page, and signed to confirm.

"Next is the media arrangement. Human official media have requested to broadcast the entire landing process of your fleet from the start of geosynchronous orbit... Does the Zerg have any requirements for this?"

Minister Greta nodded: "We will also broadcast the entire diplomatic process live after our landing near the ground."

"Understood, both sides will take photos as souvenirs," Commander-in-Chief Qi said.

The special authorization code of the military region commander flashed on the encrypted screen in front of him. Commander-in-Chief Qi pressed his fingerprint to unlock, entered the password on the password page, and clicked confirm.

The energy shield above the First Military Region was deactivated and slowly disappeared.

Against the Zerg warships, this shield is practically useless; leaving it there would only create more tension, so it's better to just turn it off.

"Then the ground viewing area will be set up at the Blue Ocean Aerospace Center, and we will arrange the welcoming ceremony ourselves. Please feel free to let us know if your entourage has any additional needs."

The military region still has many things to discuss with Colonel Gao Tian, ​​but it is not convenient to contact him right now. These issues can be addressed once he is brought to the military.

Minister Greta smiled and said, "Thank you very much."

Although Earth's technological development is still inadequate, the personnel's execution capabilities are impeccable. Once the plan is finalized, the procedures can be carried out very well, so there is no need to worry about reception.

The visit of the Zerg Crown Prince is indeed a big deal, but having already received experience from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there's no need to panic.

—Not only was I not flustered, I even felt quite calm.

"One last confirmation of arrival time." Commander-in-Chief Qi glanced at his watch. "Are you sure it's exactly 14 PM Earth time today?"

Minister Greta read the message the official media representative had sent him again: "Confirmed."

On the star map in the center of the conference table, the corresponding flight path has been drawn based on the coordinates transmitted by the Zerg fleet: "The Air Defense Command has marked your flight path and opened the customs green channel. The estimated travel time is three hours."

The Alliance Director's terminal beeped with a message.

After examining it, he smiled and said, "The Secretary-General of the Alliance has sent a confirmation letter. Earth has prepared a complete reception plan."

"Thank you again." Minister Greta stood up.

Aircraft flew rapidly past the window, and the air defense array began to change formation, clearly rehearsing a welcoming ceremony.

The human officials also stood up.

"I sincerely hope that the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two sides will proceed smoothly, and I look forward to everyone witnessing the friendship between the two sides today."

Minister Greta bowed slightly and greeted Commander-in-Chief Qi and the Alliance Director one by one.

The human side responded with, "Thank you for your blessing."

After the ceremony, the meeting adjourned, and everyone went their separate ways to prepare.

Minister Greta left the conference hall and headed towards the aircraft landing pad.

When he reached an open area, he looked up at the sky.

Beyond the clouds in the Earth's sky, spheres of all sizes are distributed throughout the sky.

Those are the outlines of many human satellite bases.

Humanity has a large population and lacks habitable planets, so many artificial satellites have been developed for habitation.

The Zerg have many unoccupied habitable planets.

The adjutant's voice came through the headset again: "Hmph, the Earthlings have given the Crown Prince's reception plan a code name."

"What's your name?"

"The Magpie Bridge Project".

"The Magpie Bridge Project," Minister Greta repeated the oddly pronounced Chinese phrase.

"The Magpie Bridge, in human legend, is the bridge across the Milky Way where the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet on the Qixi Festival, representing unwavering love," the adjutant said, stating what he had found on the human internet.

"It represents love," Minister Greta repeated.

"Although I find the story a bit strange, the omen is quite nice," the adjutant said.

Minister Greta nodded in agreement.

It's fitting for the occasion.

Hopefully, humanity has genuinely accepted the marriage between their Zerg crown prince and crown princess, and is not just going through the motions.

In reality, it doesn't matter much if humans don't accept it. Humans can no longer influence the crown princess of the Zerg Empire, so it's not a big deal.

But I still hope that humans can be a little smarter so that their crown princess can be a little happier.

If the Crown Princess is happy, then the Crown Prince will be happy.

If their crown prince is happy, he'll have anything he wants.

When humanity enters the universe, it will realize that this is the dark law of the universe: power represents everything.

Given the current disparity in strength, only tangible benefits are real. At this time, there's no need to dwell on excessive pride. When the race is still weak, it's not shameful to rely on one's in-laws for sustenance.

Who made the human people the crown princess of the Zerg Empire? Other races can't even get a piece of the Zerg Empire's pie.

This is an opportunity, not a disgrace.

Let's see if the human authorities can catch them.

Humans and Zerg are so complementary that there's no question of one being at a disadvantage.

Establishing a marriage alliance is mutually beneficial, but if humanity refuses, the Zerg, being the dominant species in the universe, will not beg and plead for it.

And those who are already dating can't just break up like this, right? Don't blame them for cheating on you later.

They wouldn't invade and plunder; the Liernia Empire wouldn't do such trashy things.

However, it is still possible to secretly steal someone away with the lover's consent.

In short, we hope that human leaders will not be stubborn and will not waste this opportunity bestowed upon them by heaven.

The Magpie Bridge Project.

It sounds like humans are quite intentional.

Minister Greta gazed at the human satellite base that was faintly visible in the clouds, and sincerely hoped that this establishment of diplomatic relations could truly be like that ancient legend on Earth, building a bridge of communication and exchange between the stars.

Putting aside grand principles of racial reproduction and development... he still wants to get married in human society!

Surely no one will object to establishing diplomatic relations? Surely no one will cause any trouble?

probably not.

Minister Greta pressed her earpiece: "Ryza, have you contacted His Highness the Crown Prince? Everything is arranged on the human side. His Highness can land directly at the Blue Ocean Space Center."

The adjutant's voice came through the earpiece: "Make contact now."
