Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 242: Chapter 170: Mother (7000-word addition)

“`

Not long after finishing the conversation about her stay or departure with Yelisia, the head of the Pei Desi regime sent a message.

In the captain’s quarters of the female captain’s ship, with an interface to the communication device, Gu Hang could directly see the virtual image of the Star Sector leader generated on the device.

The image was unstable, flickering with waves, but being able to communicate in real-time with Flying Wing Star, light-years away, was undeniably high-tech.

This required the use of special Spiritual Energy devices, as well as advanced Thinker Arrays and navigators that were only available on cruisers.

In Gu Hang’s view, he saw a composed middle-aged man with rimless round glasses, hair and a short beard neatly groomed, exuding a scholarly air. His simple suit was unassuming, yet adorned with several medals that denoted his distinguished status.

Even through countless light-years and some static, when he spoke, the warmth, magnetism, and charm in his voice still resonated with those who heard him.

“Good evening, it’s nighttime on Flying Wing Star, what time is it over there? Regardless, I want to congratulate you, for securing another victory for the empire; it’s your glory. Please allow me, on behalf of the Star Sector Government, to express my gratitude.”

The opening remarks from Mr. Leader, combined with his tone of voice, were quite captivating.

Gu Hang nodded slightly: “Thank you, Mr. Leader.”

Yelisia did not speak, instead she stepped aside.

This gesture made it clear that this conversation was for Gu Hang to seek out Pei Desi.

And Pei Desi understood. He faced Gu Hang with a smile and said, “Gu Hang, the last time we met was before you rushed to assume your post. I had great expectations for you, but even so, I never imagined you could do so well.”

That was just a formality.

The so-called doing so well referred to the fact that only one city on the entire planet had been reclaimed, right?

Of course, what kind of person was Pei Desi? He wouldn’t let his words seem like idle talk. He continued, “Although I don’t know to what extent you have rebuilt the order in Rage Owl Star, I can see a planetary force as powerful as the main force of the Star Realm Army; I can see interstellar warriors serving you; I know that the limited land you control on the planet is bursting with boundless vitality.”

“Honestly, when I learned that you had reached the planet’s surface and chose to start from scratch, gradually seizing control of the government, opting to completely reshape the alliance order established by the governor of Rage Owl Star decades ago, I was quite skeptical. But now, it seems that you were right, at least you are on the right track. Perhaps, those past governors lacked your kind of boldness and initiative. You’ve given me hope, the hope to see The Emperor’s glory spreading across the lands of Rage Owl Star.”

“Every governor within a Star Sector should take note of your deeds, I’m not joking. Those with lofty status, ruling over billions of people, have never faced a situation as tough and difficult as yours. If they were in the same position as you, they certainly wouldn’t have done as well.”

After listening to all this, Gu Hang had to admit that Pei Desi, the leader, was indeed an impressive figure.

A Star Sector leader, the supreme commander of the sector’s securities, was addressing him, who thus far could still be considered a ‘minor character’, and was able to humble himself with such enthusiastic praise.

Narratives such as not a single one of the eight governors of Rage Owl Star could compare to you, and all should look up to you; The Emperor’s glory was thanks to you that now once again envelops the lands of Rage Owl Star…

Yet when combined with his resonant voice and his sincere demeanor, somehow it wasn’t off-putting.

Praise was one thing, but key here was the praise with examples, which truly could scratch an itch in one’s heart.

If it weren’t for Gu Hang’s high resistance, he might have been swayed by the flattery.

Still, he showed a slightly self-satisfied but also deeply grateful demeanor toward Pei Desi, saying, “My success today is all thanks to the appreciation of Mr. Leader. This favor I shall never forget in my life. However, our enterprise on Rage Owl Star has reached the point where some crises are emerging. Blackbird Heavy Industries does not comply with the governor’s orders, and they have not actively contacted me since my arrival on the planet, posing a risk of insurrection; a large number of mutated creatures have appeared within the planet, severely troubling the grain-producing region; not to mention, now with the threat of the Green Skin Orcs, the Iron-Tooth Clan having suffered heavy losses, will surely not rest with their profane nature…”

“Numerous risks loom over Rage Owl Star, which urgently needs the power of the Star Realm Army to help me suppress the planet.”

And that wasn’t an exaggeration.

According to Gu Hang’s intelligence, Blackbird Heavy Industries, located in the west of the continent, further west of the Western Desert, indeed ignored him. The enterprise had the Fatches Family’s shadow behind it, and Pei Desi’s enemy, treating them as rebels was not a problem for him.

The mutated creatures were real, and the Green Valley Region was suffering.

The threat of the Green Skins was also legitimate, with twelve cruisers arriving, could that threat be anything but terrifying?
