From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

Therefore, recruiting a group of followers among the local natives and playing a game of Heart of Steel or Europa is a better solution. After all, when you occupy the entire territory, you still need to select agents to manage the world. Isn't it great to kill two birds with one stone?

"Kal'tsit will probably request an internal meeting at Babel Tower later. I'll tell Theresa about it for you...hiss..."

The doctor didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly took a breath.

"You haven't already met with Theresis and discussed assassinating Theresia, have you?"

The doctor showed obvious embarrassment, which made Si Ye, who was familiar with the plot, immediately guess the reason.

"No wonder the front lines between the Tower of Babel and the Military Committee are not a fierce battle but a standoff."

If it weren't for Si Ye, the butterfly flapping its wings, the Doctor would still be carrying out the pre-civilization plan. Theresa's ideals meant that she would never compromise, so the ending would have been doomed.

After that, the Military Committee left Victoria and Babel took over Kazdel, but the Doctor shut down Rhodes Island's shipborne defense system and the Death Guards assassinated Theresa. Before she died, Theresa saw the Doctor's pain of being caught between the previous civilization and the current civilization, and erased the Doctor's memory.

However, now with Si Ye's intervention, the Originium Project no longer needs to spread across the Terra continent, and the Doctor and Theresa no longer have a fundamental conflict, so the assassination seems unnecessary.

"I know, don't say it."

The doctor scratched his head in embarrassment. After no longer having to shoulder the responsibility of the previous civilization, all the suppressed emotions surfaced in his heart, and he was so exhausted that he could almost find a three-bedroom apartment in his shoes.

"Then please help me contact Tracy. Those blade guys under him seem quite useful."

What Tracy sought was undoubtedly the continuation and revival of the Sarkaz race. What the Doctor could give him, Si Ye could also give him. What the Doctor could not give, Si Ye could also give him. It would be a pity to miss out on such an easy-to-recruit force.

Si Ye stretched himself and stood up. This was basically the end of the matter regarding the previous civilization. The general intention had been finalized, and the rest was just a matter of minor revisions.

Chapter 12 Demon King Theresa

Rhode Island, inside the main control room.

"Kelsey, why do you have this expression?"

The pink-haired female Sarkaz walked into the room, exhausted, and looked at Kal'tsit with a puzzled look on her face, whose expression kept changing in front of the conference table.

"And Doctor, did something good happen to you? You seem very happy."

Theresa, one of the six heroes of Sarkaz, is also the current holder of the Black Crown. Legally, she is the Demon King of Sarkaz. Relying on the emotional perception ability brought by the Black Crown, she can passively perceive the current emotional state of others even if she does not actively invade other people's brains.

The Doctor's expression was different from his usual deep expression. His happiness and joy were evident in his words. On the contrary, Kal'tsit had a sad face and her emotions were constantly fluctuating.

"Some good things indeed,"

“That’s great,”

Theresa is such a gentle person, she is really happy that the Doctor is no longer dull.

"Then what happened that made you call me back so urgently? Many wounded soldiers have not been settled yet, and I am still needed at the front line."

"It is indeed a very important matter. If everything goes well, the Sarkaz Civil War will be over, your dream will be achieved, and even the mineral disease can be solved."

The doctor's words brought Kal'tsit back from her depressed and autistic state.

"PhD?"

After Si Ye and the Doctor finished their meeting, Kal'tsit was tortured by Prissius. She became completely withdrawn and had no chance to ask what the Doctor and Si Ye had talked about.

Now that the doctor said this, it attracted the attention of both Kal'tsit and Theresa.

"Are they the Doctor's compatriots? Are they willing to help the Sarkaz?"

Obviously, Theresa is not really a naive person, but she is very sensible. She did not ask about Si Ye's affairs, but was waiting for the doctor to explain.

Theresa, who holds the Black Crown, also has a vague understanding of the previous civilization. The Tower of Babel can now compete with the Military Commission and it is inseparable from the Doctor. If there are a few more people from the previous civilization to help, perhaps it can really be easily defeated Military Commission and end this civil war.

"According to what they said, they are compatriots in a general sense, but they are indeed interested in the Sarkaz."

The doctor said something that confused Theresa. After all, if he really wanted to set the conditions, it would be Si Ye who would do it, so the doctor could only give some hints and explicit instructions in a roundabout way.

"He made a deal with me, the only remaining pre-civilized human. Technically speaking, the pre-civilized are now his subordinates, and he still needs some men, so let me ask for your intentions. If you are willing, you can talk to the other party directly."

If this were said out in the open, the doctor would have been torn to pieces by the angry lords of the Sarkaz court. Letting the Demon King of Sarkaz become someone else's subordinate is no different from directly enslaving the entire Sarkaz.

But Theresa did not show any excessive reaction. She could sense the doctor's emotions when he spoke, and every word he said was serious. In other words, in the doctor's eyes, as long as she became the subordinate of the doctor's mysterious compatriot, the civil war among the Sarkaz and even the oripathy could really be resolved.

But it was this that made Theresa feel like she was dreaming and unreal, making it difficult for her to judge whether it was true or false. If the previous civilization was an unattainable giant for the current civilization, then doesn't it mean that the doctor's compatriot who could take the previous civilization as a worker was an existence far beyond imagination?

"Doctor, is everything you said true? Can your compatriot really solve the Sarkaz's predicament, such as the mineral sickness?"

"I'm just a messenger in this matter. I can't promise you anything on behalf of Si Ye, but as a friend, I can assure you."

The doctor said to Theresa seriously.

"Theresa, all you want is for the Sarkaz to be free from prejudice and discrimination. All ordinary Sarkaz want is a normal life, food, medical care, shelter. Everything you can think of can be fulfilled by them with just a flick of their fingers."

What the doctor said was right. After seeing the scale and population of the Imperial Ideal City, let alone the Sarkaz race, even if the entire Terra continent was added together, it would only take a few gaps to fill it up.

What Theresa pursued and what she promised to her followers were indeed insignificant in the face of an unreasonable ex machina like Night's.

“…Is that so? That’s great.”

Theresa smiled, as if she saw something in the doctor's emotions.

"Wait, Theresa, Doctor, even if he can do this, what is his purpose?"

Seeing that Theresa looked convinced, Kal'tsit quickly pointed out the problem in the doctor's words.

Yes, what is there to ask for? Kazdel is a desolate place, and the Sarkaz are hated by everyone on the Terra continent. If the other party has nothing to ask for, could he really be a great sage?

"The other party does have something they want, and they prefer..."

The doctor's eyes swept across Theresa's perfectly shaped horns and Kal'tsit's furry ears.

"I appreciate the racial characteristics of Terran women."

What the hell?

She was a little confused by the doctor's gaze, but after the doctor's subtle but actually straightforward explanation, Theresa froze while subconsciously stroking the sharp horns on her head.

Theresa had many guesses about the compatriot named Si Ye that the doctor mentioned, a man of great talent and ambition, a wealthy businessman who couldn't bear to see the suffering of the people, but she had never thought of the possibility that the doctor mentioned.

What does it mean to appreciate the racial characteristics of Terran women? You have to know that in the eyes of some races, tails or horns are considered relatively private things, and only close people can look at and touch them. Combined with the doctor's words, isn't this a complete pervert?

"Um, maybe my wording was a little inappropriate..."

The doctor seemed to sense that there was something wrong with the combination of words, but Si Ye's reason was indeed this, and the doctor really couldn't think of a more euphemistic way of expressing it for the time being.

"Where is this guest now? I want to talk to him in detail."

The doctor's mental state cannot be faked. Even the doctor who was depressed all day because of various worries became lively after completing the transaction with the other party. If the problems of the previous civilization can be solved, then the problem of the Sarkaz will be nothing.

Theresa adjusted her mindset and planned to have a face-to-face talk with Si Ye.

"He said he wanted to visit Rhode Island, so I asked ACE to take them there."

The doctor picked up a data panel on the table, and the 2D Precious on the screen made a face at him.

"PRTS shows them in the cafeteria, perhaps eating."

Chapter 13 Reaching Consensus

Rhodes Island during this period was far from having the complete infrastructure that Rhodes Island had after becoming a pharmaceutical company. Rhodes Island, which was rushed into battle to cope with the war, could only be said to be hovering on the edge of being usable. The large number of incomplete functional areas made the entire Rhodes Island lackluster.

Nian and Si Ye got bored of strolling around soon and went to the cafeteria to eat something. Unexpectedly, there were many Babel operators who came back with Theresa to rest.

Kazdel was short of supplies, and the food in the cafeteria was extremely poor in variety and taste, even for the frontline combatants. Thinking that the two of them couldn't argue with each other's separate cooking, Si Ye took out all the food that Huifeng had stuffed into his storage space and shared it with the operators in the cafeteria.

Then things got out of control, and the operators who heard the news also took out their own collections of snacks. Nian, who was in a good mood, even made a huge copper hot pot with his hands on the spot, making it look like lunch had turned into a party.

So when Dr. Theresa and others rushed to the cafeteria, all the operators who were on leave or injured were gathered here. An operator named Scout, under the instigation of ACE, was trying the red oil hot pot base that Nian had brought out, and his face turned red from the spiciness.

The man who provided the food, named Si Ye, was sitting on a bench in the distance, fighting with the dragon girl's tail beside him, which only reinforced the stereotype that the Doctor had told Theresa Kal'tsit and the others, that Si Ye liked the racial characteristics of Terran women.

"Your Majesty," "Your Majesty." "Your Majesty Theresa."

Some operators who were too seriously injured to participate noticed Theresa's arrival. With the repeated calls of "Your Majesty", the originally noisy cafeteria gradually quieted down.

Theresa said gently, "Everyone, continue, but don't forget to take turns, and give one copy to the operators on duty as well."

"Oh, long live His Highness!"

The doctor noticed the cans piled on the table next to him. They had the Pan-Human Community icon on them and looked like supplies that Si Ye had brought out.

On the front of the can is a rather cute looking brachiopod that resembles a cross between a starfish and an octopus.

When he opened the can, a sweet aroma hit him in the face. Inside was yellow-white meat mixed with fat. The doctor, who had been busy all morning, was naturally hungry. He looked around but couldn't find any cutlery, so he tilted his head back and poured the whole can into his mouth.

"Hmm, it tastes good. Kal'tsit, do you want to try it too?"

The meat is delicious, perhaps due to some advanced preservation technology, and has a perfect sweetness overall. This perfect sweetness combined with the fresh and fragrant meat makes it delicious.

Kal'tsit remained unmoved, and looked at the can of meat, which contained something she couldn't identify, with a look of doubt.

"Even if the other party has no ill intentions, consuming food with unknown ingredients is not good for your health, Doctor."

"Don't say that, Miss Kelsey..."

Si Ye also saw the Doctor and the others. Just as he walked over with Nian, he heard Kal'tsit's words. Si Ye rarely stuttered on how to address Kal'tsit.

"This is a specialty of ours, canned starfish. It doesn't have any additives and is absolutely healthy."

There is no need to elaborate on the love-hate relationship between humans and starfish. As the only two aliens allowed to survive in the Star Sea Empire, all of the empire's biological transformation technology was used on starfish, causing canned starfish to go from a work of venting anger to a best-selling product within the empire.

"This is the current Demon King of the Sarkaz, Your Majesty Theresa, right? I am Si Ye."

"Just call me Theresa,"

Theresa shook hands politely with Si Ye. She did give people a warm feeling. In addition, she was a powerful leader who was decisive and ruthless. No wonder she had so many followers. No wonder after Theresa's death, even if Amiya took over as the Demon King, more Sarkaz still chose Theresis. Those people were not following the title of Demon King, but Theresa as a person.

"The doctor said you wanted to talk to me about something."

The idea of ​​taking the Demon King as a younger brother must not be said in public. Kal'tsit pointed at the side door with a frown on her face.

"There's an office over here."

Everyone followed Kal'tsit out of the bustling restaurant. The doctor seemed a little reluctant to leave and even took a few cans of starfish from the table when he left.

The office door blocked out the noise. Apart from the sound of the doctor showing off his cans, the office was silent. To avoid embarrassment, Theresa spoke first.

"I heard you wanted to recruit some men."
