"Been preparing before," Lyu laughed, "your entry into the Sherman Empire was really a likely event in the long run; now it's just accelerated by the Valkyrie factor."
Yang Ming shrugged, "You can't say it's forced acceleration... If we hadn't gone looking for the Valkyrie this time, the Dreadnought's cannons would probably already be pointing at my forehead by now. This is what you call a balance of strength and luck."
Lyu laughed, hands behind his back, and announced on the bridge, "Captain has arrived on the bridge."
The bridge door opened, and 026 led several maid-looking silver-white robots to bow and greet.
"Hello, boss!"
"Mm, off to work you go."
Yang Ming waved them away, as 026 ran off to the corner lounge to fuss with the tea.
Once Yang Ming sat in the captain's chair, more than ten holographic screens immediately opened before him.
Lyu began reporting on the overall situation within the Luofeng Empire, Sherman Empire, and New Federation.
