Chapter 680 The Emperor of the Tanni Empire

The news that the Galaxy Defense fleet had left its home port in large numbers and was heading towards space could not be concealed at all.

In Moranok and Narbor star regions, there are many spies and intelligence personnel from other civilizations.

Not long after the fleet left, the information here was transmitted to the Star Free Alliance through psychics.

Several civilizations here have already known about the situation of the Galactic Defense Group.

In the Tanni Empire.

On the highest mountain on the mother planet, there is a huge black palace complex. This is the location of the imperial palace of the Tani Empire.

This is a palace complex that combines classical and modern technology. The palaces are designed in the style of thousands of years ago, but on the periphery, there are heavy fortress-level void shields for defense.

Inside the palace, outside a huge hall, are palace guards wearing special mechanical weapons.

Entering the hall, there were thousands of high-ranking officials of the Tani tribe, who were holding a ceremony that humans called a court meeting.

Officials reported on their work one by one, and this court meeting lasted for several days.

Finally, when the grand court meeting ended, only a few top leaders who could truly decide the direction of the entire civilization remained in the huge conference room.

The Tanni are also a chordate. They have the ability to walk upright and are about three and a half meters tall.

They have four arms and their heads are like leopards without their hair.

They have well-developed brains and extremely high intelligence. The oxygen content on their home planet is very high, so they are tall and have great physical strength.

The four arms of the Tani people are quite flexible, almost twice as strong as those of humans.

Their social structure is highly complex. Generally speaking, the Tanni are a hermaphroditic race, and their families mostly consist of three to five adult Tanni.

A family will raise their children together until they grow up.

During the period of development of the Tani Empire recorded in historical documents, they had been developing on their home planet for tens of thousands of years before entering space. They developed a dynastic imperial civilization on their home planet, which has continued to this day.

They have been in space for more than four thousand years, and are a mature interstellar civilization.

At the beginning, when there was no psychic jump engine, the development of the Tanni Empire was relatively slow. It was not until more than a thousand years ago that they developed the psychic jump engine and the entire empire entered the fast lane.

They conquered the surrounding civilizations and slaughtered all other civilized races on these planets, or enslaved them.

This is a country that is both barbaric and civilized.

Today, Zangwill, the Emperor of the Tanni Empire, sat high on the throne, wearing the gorgeous robes unique to the Tanni people.

The well-manicured nails were stroking the armrests of the throne. Of the four arms, two were clasped in front of the chest, and the other two were placed on the armrests.

Below the throne, there is a smaller throne, where sits the prince of the Tanni Empire: Boswell.

He and the emperor were members of the same family. They were brothers, sisters, husband and wife, and their relationship was very close.

Boswell is another A-rank psychic from the Tanni Empire.

The emperor and the prince are both A-level psychics and come from the same family. The royal family's ruling power is very stable in the entire Tanni Empire.

Below, there are several high-ranking officials of the Tany tribe, namely the Minister of Administration, the Minister of Starships, the Minister of the Army, as well as the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Intelligence.

The Tanni Empire had many departments, and the long years had made their official system very redundant, but this was not a problem among the highest ruling class.

No matter in which civilization or what form of government, the highest rulers are always only a small group.

These ministers, princes and emperors left this super-large hall and came to a slightly smaller hall.

The Emperor still sat on the throne, with the Prince beside him.

After all the officials were seated, the Minister of Intelligence spoke first, "Your Majesty, Prince, the intelligence personnel we deployed in the Moranok Interstellar Lordship have sent us the latest news."

"The Galactic Defense Corporation's fleet, which conquered the Moranok Star Lord State, has left its home port and its whereabouts are unknown."

"In addition to the fleet here, there is also a fleet from the former Dalhash Hegemony location. It has also sailed out of the starport and its whereabouts are unknown."

The Intelligence Minister's words made the atmosphere in the room tense.

Prince Boswell pondered for a moment and asked, "So, in your opinion, where will their fleet go?"

The Minister of Intelligence said calmly, "Your Highness, please forgive my incompetence. Galaxy Defense Company, this civilization has only been in our sight for a short time, only a few twenty to thirty years. We know very little about this civilization."

"This race is extremely xenophobic. Only humans, the original race of civilization, can board their starships. Other races of conquered civilizations are not allowed to operate starships."

"Therefore, we know very little about their fleet and can only guess at its location at this point."

"According to previous intelligence analysis, their fleets left almost simultaneously. Their target should be our Tany Empire and the entire Star Ocean Freedom Alliance!"

The Intelligence Minister's words made the atmosphere in the entire room solemn.

The prince asked the Starfleet Minister, "With our current strength, do you think we can be a match for the Galaxy Defense?"

The Starfleet Minister did not respond directly to these questions. Instead, he began to speak: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, in the past, our Tanny Empire's only formidable enemy in this surrounding star field was the Moranok Star Lord State."

"Both sides are aware of their opponents' strength. Hundreds of years ago, when we were still using second-generation warships, we engaged in an arms race. Although no war ultimately broke out, I believe you all understand their strength."

"From the intelligence we've learned from some of the nobles and high-ranking lords who escaped from Moranok, we know that the Moranok Star Lord State and its two allies have made the greatest preparations for war and have recruited almost all the crew members and soldiers who can board a starship."

"They have assembled a massive fleet with almost twice the number of ships we currently have."

"But even such a powerful fleet was almost completely destroyed by the attack of the galactic defense."

"Even the entire Moranok civilization and their allies have now been conquered by the Galactic Defense..."
