A is in StarCraft, just disembarked from the Zerg Prince spaceship.

********************

......

Minister Hawke shook hands with the human captain: "I'll need your help to take me back later. I have an appointment with the Earth Military Headquarters, and I have important matters to discuss later."

To help humanity enhance its military strength, many things need to be built from scratch; there's a lot to do.

The captain invited him to sit down: "Of course, of course. Please rest in the viewing area for a while; we'll be heading back to Earth soon!"

......

The spaceship flew back to the space station, and the captain personally drove the spacecraft to escort Secretary Hawke and his entourage to the main gate of the military headquarters.

The relay system ensures that when the Zerg help humans, they are always picked up and dropped off, so they don't have to travel on their own.

They really came to our aid. It's not just about being a driver; if the Zerg brothers were willing to come and help a few more times, the captain could even be their babysitter.

When the aircraft stopped in front of the military headquarters gate, Commander-in-Chief Qi's adjutant was already waiting there.

Minister Hawke politely thanked the captain and took his leave.

The captain waved and said, "Minister Hawke, welcome back next time!"

Minister Hawke: "Definitely, definitely."

The female frigates on the six escort ships, having nothing else to do, will definitely go for a stroll around the recovery space station.

Recycling Earth's space debris is truly a beneficial activity for female soldiers, both physically and mentally. It allows them to train their reaction abilities, observe humans, engage in insect-like activities, and release excess energy.

It is suggested that the human-reclaimed space station be renamed the "Catch Ball Training Ground".

It will definitely become a popular tourist attraction in Liernia in the future.

Both sides were very satisfied, and the captain happily took his leave.

As Commander-in-Chief Qi's adjutant ushered Minister Hawk of the Zerg inside, he said with a smile, "Station Chief Zhang's space station has long suffered from the problem of space debris. Due to technological limitations, the recovery work has not been very smooth. Seeing Station Chief Zhang's happy demeanor today, I'm sure your side has been of great help. Thank you very much."

Minister Hawke waved his hand generously: "We're all family, no need to be so polite!"

The adjutant was taken aback, as if he had heard something extraordinary, and couldn't help but laugh: "You're right, you're right. It's my fault, I was too polite."

I walked to the meeting room door.

The blast doors of the Earth Military Headquarters' main conference room opened to both sides.

The adjutant invited Minister Hawke inside.

The commanders and generals of the Earth Military Command had mostly arrived and were sitting on either side of the table. They all stood up to welcome Minister Hawke as he entered.

Everyone shook hands and introduced themselves, then invited Minister Hawke to sit down across the conference table.

The Crown Prince of Leernia had already given prior notice, requesting that Leernia's Minister of Military Affairs, Hawke, assist Earth with some military defense construction.

The primary task is to help Earth establish a planetary barrier.

A planetary barrier is a defense mechanism that protects a planet. Depending on the planet, it is generally composed of energy shields, force fields, etc.

Planetary barriers are the most effective devices for protecting a planet. In addition to defense, they also have other functions, such as hiding the planet, controlling the climate, preventing the atmosphere from dissipating, filtering harmful radiation, collecting energy, and protecting the ecological balance, among others.

The Liernia side will not station troops on Earth. With the planetary barrier in place, even if the Crown Prince's fleet returns to Liernia, there is no need to worry about Earth being discovered by space pirate groups.

Having a planetary barrier certainly doesn't mean we can rest easy and have everything go smoothly in the future, but it's fine to stall for a few days and wait for rescue when we encounter an insurmountable enemy.

Lyrnia will protect humanity when it is still weak.

Few forces in the universe can rival the Zerg. Unless it's absolutely impossible to save them in time, there shouldn't be any major problems.

The Earth military has learned from Major General Gao Tian's report that the disappearance of a researcher on Star 65 was actually due to being kidnapped by space pirates. It's no exaggeration to say that he was terrified at the time.

Unbeknownst to them, the Human Federation had once come so close to destruction.

Even if humans were still in the primitive stage of planetary civilization, they could imagine the cruelty of encountering space pirates from a more advanced civilization.

Some time ago, humans invaded the territory of the Liernia Empire without their knowledge.

Although the planet was later given to humanity by the Crown Prince as a dowry, thus erasing this disgraceful act, well... seeing the people from the Liernia Empire still makes me feel a bit guilty.

This... was really not my intention... I was just unaware... Ignorance is bliss... Sigh.

Embarrassing, my face turned red.

Even so, the Liernia Empire did not attack humanity, and was even willing to help Earth upgrade. General Gao Tian has truly made a great contribution for posterity.

Because humans entered Liernia's territory, space pirates discovered their presence and, by chance, mistook them for Liernia's army, which was frightened away by the cosmic overlord. In this way, humans were unknowingly saved by the Liernia Empire.

Although the Crown Prince's explanation was that he fought with space pirates, and the space pirates found Star 65 by following the trail of his crashed plane, so he should be held responsible for the incident.

But everyone here is a veteran of the military, and they have many perspectives on the issue; none of them are fools.

—The fact that the plane could crash to Star 65 after being shot down indicates that the space pirates were near Star 65 when the Crown Prince and the space pirates were fighting.

Human activity on planet 65 is quite significant; even without the Crown Prince's plane crash, it would likely have been discovered by space pirates very quickly.

Without the imprint of the Crown Prince's firepower in the foreground, space pirates wouldn't prejudge the human army as the army of the Liernia Empire. Without enough fear, they might take some risks and sneak up on us.

Once they get close, they will easily discover that the human fleet is not the army of Lyrnia, discover the weakness of humanity, discover the value of humanity, and then follow the human fleet's sailing route to reach Earth and wipe out humanity in one fell swoop.

Is this conjecture just sophistry and needless worry?

No.

This perfectly aligns with the direction the events have taken.

Or rather, the crown prince was an accident, and the normal course of events would have been without a crown prince.

Who wouldn't break out in a cold sweat if they thought about this direction of development?

Even General Zhao Chongshan was speechless. Compared to that development direction, the Zerg who established diplomatic relations were as lovely as angels of truth, goodness and beauty.

General Zhao remained silent, only wiping his sweat.

"Hello everyone, I am Hawke, the Minister of Military Security of the Liernia Empire."

Minister Hawke is a Black Stag Beetle, tall and robust in stature, with a deep voice, dark skin, and a somewhat resemblance to Li Kui.

He stood up, his hands on the conference table, his height approaching two meters, exuding an astonishing sense of oppression.

"By order of our Crown Prince, we will increase Earth's military defense capabilities. Most importantly, we will help Earth establish a planetary defense barrier."

The Dark Laws of the Universe are the fundamental rules of the universe, not bound by moral frameworks, and represent the most basic laws governing the development of the universe.

The right to survival is essentially the right to violent inheritance; the strong can plunder the energy of the weak to quickly become stronger.

The development of almost any living being occurs in this way when they are unaware of the concept of morality.

The so-called laws of darkness are nothing more than a reflection in a mirror that the civilization of light is unwilling to acknowledge.

The Liernia Empire adheres to morality and order, and was born in one of the richest super star clusters. It has more resources than it can use, and will not plunder the weak.

But other civilizations may not be so.

Earth doesn't even have a planetary barrier, which is really worrying.

But surely those twisted humans wouldn't think we're here to infringe on Earth's sovereignty?

Minister Hawke added, "Of course, this is entirely voluntary. Liernia's support is for humanitarian reasons; if Earth doesn't want it, it can simply refuse. It's no problem; we respect all of Earth's autonomy."
