Chapter 260 253 Return to the Solar System
The massive Warp Bubble dissipated, revealing a majestic and powerful warship. After a journey of more than three months, the Sacred Falcon had finally returned to the Solar System.
Seeing the azure planet again, Bai Zhongqi felt as if he had come home after a tiring day's journey. At the same time, Bai Zhongqi also saw more structures and ships in Earth's orbit than before.
When they set off, there were two ships, but now only the Sacred Falcon had returned. Bai Zhongqi still felt some lingering fear from the unexpected Supernova Explosion, and the loss of the crew members was regrettable. However, Bai Zhongqi's adventure had been very fruitful this time.
Bai Zhongqi brought back the main intelligence from his strategic reconnaissance mission, and he had rescued more than three thousand slaves from the Teizene people, a large portion of whom were transformed into an alliance army to fight against the Teizenes.
Aboard the Sacred Falcon, over four thousand passengers from different galaxies and planets looked at Earth and everything around them with various emotions.
Bell lay against the window, eyes full of curiosity and excitement, "Walnut, Walnut, is that Earth? Our new home."
Walnut held his heart with a serene expression, "Yes, this is the place we will have to protect now."
Bell spoke excitedly, "I heard that this single planet has a population of over seven billion people, how impressive."
Walnut laughed, "The Primate Clan may not be very adept at adapting to the universe environment, but as long as they're given a suitable environment, they can proliferate in large numbers. Earth is a very good habitable planet; it's just that it might be a bit too crowded now."
With a smile on his face, Bai Zhongqi gently waved to the crowd. His Chancellor's uniform was meticulous, as smooth as if drops of water would roll off it without any delay.
Excitement flickered in Xu Lanzhou's bright eyes. At the sight of Bai Zhongqi's figure, she experienced an unprecedented sense of fulfillment that left her slightly baffled and even a little panicked. However, at this moment she dared not show any lapse in composure, and along with Du Peng, Xu Lanzhou performed the chest salute to His Excellency the Chancellor.
Most of the people present were actually from Earth, but after someone performed the chest salute, nearly everyone bowed slightly and placed their hands on their chests in salute. This small piece of Iridium Star etiquette had swiftly become an important ceremony on Earth, second only to the handshake, and had turned into a common practice for many people.
Han Jiaxue, with her arm linked through Bai Zhongqi's, had not expected him to be held in such high esteem. When she couldn't help looking over at Bai Zhongqi, it seemed as if he was radiating a golden light. Han Jiaxue didn't know if it was an illusion or something else, but at that moment Bai Zhongqi seemed to her both imposing and distant.
Ling, walking behind Bai Zhongqi and Han Jiaxue, also seemed to enjoy the attention that came with them.
Bai Zhongqi came to the forefront of the Star Alliance officials and said, "You've all worked hard, I see all your achievements. Our Star Alliance is growing stronger by the day, and with each passing day, we become less afraid of our enemies' invasions."
Du Peng held back a modest smile in front of Bai Zhongqi and said, "Our work is all arranged by Your Excellency. But it's Your Excellency who faced danger in the treacherous star regions, outwitting enemies and different alien forces, ultimately annihilating the enemy's supply fleet and returning triumphant. That's a historic feat worth writing about."
Xu Lanzhou unconsciously nodded her head; she had almost daily read reports sent back by Ling. The Chancellor bravely saved crew members during a supernova explosion, clashed with the Teizenes on Bupinga Star, and conducted a surprise attack on the Teizene supply fleet, disrupting a portion of their military operations. These incidents were as stirring and intricate as the legendary stories she'd read in her youth about the Chancellor and the Twelve Knights of Destiny.
Bai Zhongqi, too, felt that this experience was indeed extraordinary, but he also had a premonition that in the future, he might encounter even more wondrous things in the universe. Continue your saga on My Virtual Library Empire
