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

***********

......

"...It's going to be dangerous this time, so I won't be taking the Crown Princess. Crown Princess..." The Crown Prince rambled on about wartime arrangements.

"Wait, what do you mean by not taking me?" Gao Tian had been listening quite well, but when he heard this, he sensed something was wrong and immediately protested.

But the Crown Prince wouldn't listen: "Because it's too dangerous."

"What danger is there for me being by your side? It's more dangerous when I'm not around!"

"Because Zerg females revert to their original form to tear apart ships during combat, once the ship is exposed to a vacuum, you don't have the Zerg's exoskeleton, nor the circulatory system to survive in a vacuum for a short time. In a few seconds, you're gone."

"Can't I wear a spacesuit?"

"What if the spaceship next to us suddenly explodes?" the Crown Prince asked.

Gao Tian fell silent.

Damn, there's no way to refute that. Humanity was far too weak in the war against the advanced Zerg.

The spaceship explodes, scattering debris. Even if a high-level female insect is partially or fully transformed into an insect, she might only feel a little pain from the attack, but it won't break through her defenses.

However, if this fragment were to hit a human, they would likely die instantly. Even the most robust, high-tech spacesuit wouldn't be enough to stop it; the impact would be strong enough to shatter a human's fragile bones and internal organs.

Gao Tian then said, "Alright."

This "okay" doesn't sound good at all.

The Crown Prince confirmed with him, "You're not coming along, are you?"

Gao Tian: "Can't I wait for you at the Crown Prince's Palace?"

"What if the Noble Council's private soldiers attack the Crown Prince's palace while I'm away?" the Crown Prince asked.

Gao Tian asked, "Then why can't they come to Earth?"

"The Third Legion is guarding the wormhole."

Gao Tian fell silent again.

He stood there motionless.

The Crown Prince embraced him, his arms around his waist, his head resting on his shoulder—a very solemn and affectionate hug.

"I will be fine, Crown Princess. I will come back after I kill them all. You are my greatest weakness. Don't take any risks and protect yourself."

Gao Tian was supported by his silver head, and his hands hanging by his sides twitched. He couldn't help but hug him back, still stubbornly saying, "What am I afraid of? Anyway, our lives are linked together. If you die, I'll be buried with you. We'll be buried together anyway."

"Pah! Pah! Pah! Pah! Pah!" The Crown Prince hit him.

Gao Tian was hit on the shoulder several times, but he still stubbornly refused to admit his mistake.

But at least they didn't refute it.

The Crown Prince looked at the Crown Princess, slapped her a few times, then couldn't bear to part with her and kissed her handsome face: "I'll try my best not to let us be buried together."

"Then bury two nests?" Gao Tian said.

"..."

"I think you deserve a beating!" The Crown Prince suddenly attacked him again.

The Crown Princess was beaten today (2/1).

......

Having persuaded the Crown Princess to stay on Earth, the Crown Prince then considered that the human political parties might take action against Takaten, since there was little combat power left behind. However, his most trusted member, Bambo, along with the most loyal Crown Prince's guards and the Crown Princess's guards, stayed on Earth to protect Takaten.

"Bampo, I'm entrusting the Crown Princess's safety to you. You, along with the Crown Prince's and Crown Princess's guards, will remain on Earth. Everything should be settled by the day after tomorrow. While I'm gone, you will lead two squads of guards to protect this villa 24/7, without leaving its side for even a moment. Can you do that?"

Bambo patted his chest and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, I will definitely protect the Crown Princess!"

Although he was a nobody, both of his guard units were elites among elites. Even if all of Orion's men came, they wouldn't be able to defeat them. Besides, Orion had taken his men away, and this place was only for guarding against some humans.

There shouldn't be any problems anymore. Everything that needed to be resolved has been resolved, and everything that needed to be guarded against has been guarded against. Earth has the planetary barrier, and the Crown Princess has Bambo's protection. Lan can finally return with peace of mind to fight the Insect King, the nobles, and the massive Orion power group.

......

The Prince-class destroyer is ready.

The Crown Princess and Bambo escorted the Crown Prince to the starship.

The Crown Prince strode towards the boarding passage leading to the bridge, his combat boots making a crisp, clattering sound on the smooth, hard metal floor.

Very handsome, very cool.

The hem of her short cape fluttered, making her look as if she were about to take flight.

Gao Tian silently followed half a step behind him, watching his flowing silver hair and the hem of his clothes.

I wanted to call out to him, but in the end I didn't say anything.

Baby.

His baby is going to work hard now, and he can't go with him; he can only watch from here.

Humans are still too weak.

Just as he rounded a bend, Baby Bug Cool Guy suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He slapped his forehead hard, making a soft "smack" sound: "Damn, I almost messed things up."

There's one more thing I need to do before I leave, I almost forgot!

Gao Tian stopped in his tracks, puzzled. "What?"

"I forgot to inform the human authorities."

The Crown Prince quickly raised his wrist and tapped a few times on his personal terminal.

A pale blue light screen popped up and hovered above his wrist.

His fingers flew across the virtual keyboard as he entered an extremely complex communication key with special access permissions.

The mainframe connects to the First Military Region Commander's office and initiates encrypted communication.

Waiting ripples appear on the screen.

A few seconds later, the light screen stabilized and the connection was established: "Hello, First Military Region Commander's Office."

"I am Crown Prince of Liernia, and I am looking for your Commander-in-Chief Qi."

The operator responded quickly: "Okay, please wait a moment."

A few seconds later, the call was transferred.

Commander-in-Chief Qi opened the video page, and the screen unfolded.

President Qi appeared on the projection screen: "Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Judging from the background, President Qi should still be in his office.

He was dressed in the uniform of the Human Federation Commander, his face calm and his eyes sharp, sitting in an office chair with the office's floor-to-ceiling windows in the background.

Gao Tian had already hidden to the side when the light screen took shape, and he still didn't know how to face President Qi.

"Commander-in-Chief Qi." The Crown Prince straightened his back, his bright blue eyes filled with solemnity, and greeted Commander Qi respectfully.

Commander-in-Chief Qi felt that something was amiss; the Crown Prince's attire today seemed different from usual.

He usually wears his snow-white prince uniform with a large fur collar, but today he is wearing a black outfit that looks like a combat uniform.

His gaze swept over the background behind Lan.

It was the cold, alloy walls of the starship passageway.

Then the gaze fell upon the Crown Prince's unusually serious face.

"Excuse me, what happened?"

Without any pleasantries, Lan cut to the chase: "Commander-in-Chief Qi, I apologize for the sudden interruption. The situation has changed somewhat urgently. In the next day or two, Liernia may undergo a large-scale internal restructuring, which will bring some unforeseen changes. In view of the current uncertainty and the potential ripple effects, on behalf of the Liernia Royal Family, I formally recommend that the Human Federation suspend all non-essential personnel movement between Liernia and the Human Federation, especially private spaceship tourism routes, effective immediately, until we issue further security notifications."

"At the same time, based on the principle of interstellar security cooperation, we strongly recommend that Earth's planetary defense barrier system be upgraded to its maximum power operation state immediately, based on the existing foundation."

Commander-in-Chief Qi listened to this long string of official jargon.

The Crown Prince's words were not very clear and were rather veiled.

However, considering the impending storm in the struggle for the throne in Lehrnia, and the fact that Crown Prince Lan was dressed in combat gear ready for battle at any moment, with the starship behind him, Commander-in-Chief Qi understood.

He looked at the Crown Prince, without asking any questions or expressing any surprise or doubt, and nodded, accepting the suggestion.

"Understood, Your Highness. The suggestion has been received, and the Human Federation will immediately implement the relevant contingency plan."

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Qi." Lan nodded again.

Then Commander-in-Chief Qi asked, "What are the Crown Princess's plans?"

Will Takaten go with them to Lehrnia? If a coup occurs in Lehrnia, can Takaten's safety be guaranteed?

"The Crown Princess will remain on Earth," the Crown Prince informed Commander-in-Chief Qi. "Could you please clear out the residential area in Yunnan within the next few days?"

The request is reasonable. "No problem, that's fine. Do you need us to send troops to protect the Crown Princess?"

"No need. I will leave two squads of guards to surround the villa in Yunnan. Just give the order to avoid any misunderstandings. Do not let anyone approach the villa to avoid accidental injury."

Commander-in-Chief Qi nodded.

The Zerg's female guards are indeed much more reliable than human guards. It is very difficult for humans to break through the protection of the female Zerg, not to mention the fear of female Zerg infiltrating. The Crown Prince has made strict arrangements.

"OK."

"Thank you," the Crown Prince said.

"You're too kind. I wish you a victorious return." Commander-in-Chief Qi nodded.

"Thanks."

The communication ended there, and the pale blue light screen disappeared along with Commander-in-Chief Qi's calm face.

Gao Tian let out a long breath, and the tense lines of his shoulders visibly relaxed.

The Crown Prince found it amusing: "Are you that afraid of him?"

Gao Tian said helplessly, "It's not that I'm afraid, it's that I don't know how to face him."

Good heavens! President Qi is actually the original owner's father. The moment President Qi sees him, he'll start giving him that look again.

The father's guilty look as he looked at his child.

But he wasn't the original owner of this body, and he couldn't tell him the truth, so he couldn't stand the way President Qi looked at him.

Now he's the only one left to face it, but that look isn't meant for him; the original child is already dead.

Sigh, he really has no other choice now. He can only neither deny nor get close to the child, letting President Qi feel that the child is still alive, but that the time gap is too long and he can't face him.

He has nothing to lack now, so President Qi doesn't need to worry about him not doing well.

The Crown Prince was unaware of Gao Tian's specific thoughts, only that the Crown Princess seemed a bit timid.

He turned around and met Gao Tian's gaze, which had been fixed on him.

"Your Highness, don't be afraid, I've arranged everything." Baby Bug grinned, revealing a slightly smug smile.

The previous seriousness was replaced by a relaxed, youthful spirit.

The Crown Prince is the greatest Crown Prince; he will definitely protect the Crown Princess and humanity. •͈ ₃ •͈

Gao Tian didn't speak, he just nodded.

The Crown Prince is the greatest Crown Prince. He created a planetary barrier for Earth, placing it within a safe energy shell.

"Alright, that's all done. Get out, get out now," the Crown Prince urged him to leave.

Gao Tian said, "I want to stay with you a little longer."

"I'm leaving!"

The Crown Prince had not lied to him; the Crown Prince's ship had already started its fire and was hovering.

Gao Tian was pushed and shoved by the Crown Prince until he saw Gao Tian disembark from the starship and reunite with Bambo, who was accompanied by guards.

The Crown Prince gripped the cabin door: "I will definitely come back soon."

Gao Tian didn't say anything else, just looked at him and said, "Bury a whole nest."

After a moment of silence, the Crown Prince chuckled and said, "Alright, bury them all."

Then he cursed the Crown Princess: "Bah!!! I'm going to live to be a hundred! I haven't even had an heir yet!"

Gao Tian was genuinely heartbroken.

Why are they suffering so much? The Crown Prince was already destined to live to be a hundred if he stayed with him, and now they have to separate and fight for their lives.

The Crown Prince then asked him, "Gao Tian, ​​do you regret it?"

Gao Tian looked at him: "Regret what?"

"You could have lived to be a hundred, but if you stay with me, you might not even live to be thirty." If he loses the fight and dies, Gao Tianzhen will really be buried with him.

Gao Tian said, "What's there to regret? I'm willing."

The crown prince stopped looking at him, so he lowered his head and said softly, "Then I'm willing too."

He never regretted his lifespan being shortened to a hundred years. Every day with the Crown Princess was better than any of the rest of his life without her.

He never felt that the Crown Princess's short life was something she owed him.

He was willing.

......

The hatches of the Prince-class destroyer were closed.

Airspace cleared, ignition, takeoff.

Gao Tian and Bambo watched as the massive Prince Ship rose, eventually becoming a tiny dot on the horizon, and finally disappearing from sight completely.

......

The Prince-class destroyer flew out of the atmosphere.

Lan stopped before leaving Earth's range, taking one last look at the azure planet beneath her feet.

His gaze fell upon the edge of Earth's atmosphere.

An invisible, enormous, pale golden membrane of light began at the Earth's equator and spread upwards and downwards at an astonishing speed, eventually closing in.

The originally thin and almost invisible planetary defense barrier was now infused with a massive amount of energy, instantly becoming solid, thick, and emitting a soft light.

It quickly covered the entire planet, like a giant, translucent golden eggshell, gently enveloping Earth, incredibly resilient, and isolating it from all possible external threats.

The Earth is firmly protected within it.

Lan looked at the thickening planetary barrier and felt relieved.

With this level of planetary barrier activated, even if Earth is attacked by advanced insectoids, it can delay them for half a day, enough time for them to return and provide assistance.

My last bit of worry completely disappeared, and I felt energized!

The Crown Prince's lips curled into a confident smile, brimming with fighting spirit and eagerness to try.

The main engine at the stern of the Prince ship suddenly emitted a dark blue flame, becoming incredibly intense!

The powerful thrust burst forth instantly, like an arrow released from a bow, accelerating towards the depths of space and disappearing into the wormhole between the Human Federation and Liernia.

Insect King, Council, Orion, your father is here!

On the day before New Year's Day for the Zerg, the Crown Prince's ship departed and returned to Lyrnia.
