After Luo Tian took Jiu Hai to visit the Ice Palace, he asked Lan Yue to prepare the meal, and then the two went to the war room first.
During this period, Harry and Gao Shan were leading the engineers to build Uranus Nova with great enthusiasm. The prototype of the current Uranus Nova could be seen on the screen in the background.
"Is this the new star you want to build?" Jiuhai asked.
Luo Tian nodded: "Yes, once this new star is built, it will be able to accommodate more than ten times the number of residents of Uranus City in the future. The most important thing is that it can get rid of the control of the Star City Convention, and people here can live freely and happily."
"This new star is also built on the underlying architecture of Kaiyuan. Can it be out of the control of Gongfahui?" Jiuhai was somewhat puzzled.
Luo Tian smiled and said, "Although the Gongfa Association has monopolized the operation and management rights of Kaiyuan, the underlying code was not written by them, so they cannot completely control the deeply embedded code system. Naturally, the new star we built is isolated from the current Kaiyuan."
Jiu Hai exclaimed: "Your technical level has exceeded my cognition. But even if the construction of Tianwang Nova is completed, it is only at the virtual level. At present, Tianwang District is still very weak. How can the safety of residents be guaranteed?"
Jiuhai's words touched Luo Tian's pain. No matter how beautifully the Tianwang Nova was built, once the Tianwang area was occupied, everything would be a waste of time for others.
"I have also thought about this. It's lunch time, let's go eat first." Luo Tian said.
In view of Jiuhai's special status and request, Luo Tian did not invite anyone else to dine together. Only he and Jiuhai came to the restaurant.
Jiu Hai glanced at the food on the table, and his eyes immediately lit up: "You actually know the royal cuisine of the Sea King District. The last time I ate this dish was when my grandmother made it for me when I was very young. Unfortunately, she has passed away a long time ago. I thought this skill would be lost as the older generation of the Sea King District died one after another."
Luo Tian saw the tears in Jiu Hai's eyes and knew that he must be thinking about the tragic fate of his people, so he comforted him: "Now I can empathize with you. Maybe in a while, my people will suffer the same fate as yours, so I want to stop this from happening."
Jiu Hai adjusted his mood, forced a smile on his face and said, "Don't think about the past. I want to enjoy the hometown food you prepared for me today."
Luo Tian poured wine for Jiu Hai, then picked up his own glass and said, "Cheers to our successful first meeting!"
The two men drank the wine in their glasses and laughed heartily.
Jiu Hai ate the food with big mouthfuls, and pointed at one of the cuttlefish dishes and said, "Do you know what this dish is called?"
Luo Tian looked at the dish on the plate and found it was indeed unique. It was a huge cuttlefish with eight colors from head to claws, which was very beautiful.
"Is this a colorful octopus?" Luo Tian guessed.
Jiu Hai laughed: "Your statement is quite appropriate. I told you before that the octopus is the totem of the Sea King, so we call this dish Sea King Eternal Life. The eight colors represent the cycle of life and death, immortality. The most interesting thing is that these eight colors require ingredients of the same color, which is very difficult! The chef who made this dish is not simple."
Luo Tian never cared much about food, but after hearing what Jiuhai said, he became curious. He just told Lan Yue that he would entertain a distinguished guest today and hoped to prepare some special dishes from the Sea King District. However, he did not expect that the chef in his palace was actually an expert in cooking the Sea King District's court dishes.
"Actually, I came to you today for two reasons. First, I wanted to take a look at the Uranus Nova Project, and second, it's for the survival of the Sea Kings. I heard that the Survival Alliance and Saturn City are going to attack Uranus City. If the city is destroyed, our Sea Kings will suffer a catastrophe again in a hundred years. Tell me the truth, what is the probability of this happening?" Jiuhai said worriedly.
"I can't guarantee you that this won't happen. To be honest, I plan to negotiate with the Mars and Jupiter districts. If I can get their support, Uranus City can be saved from destruction." Luo Tian said.
"How confident are you that you can prevent this war from breaking out?" Jiu Hai asked.
"I can't answer you this, but I promise I will do my best." Luo Tian said.
Jiu Hai shook his head: "I can't pin the fate of my people on an uncertain thing. My duty is to ensure the continuation of the race. Since you can't give me a definite answer, I plan to take my people to live somewhere else. I hope you won't stop me."
Luo Tian was very surprised to hear this. He didn't know how many people Jiuhai would take away, but for the Tianwang District, the departure of a large number of residents could easily cause panic.
"I won't stop you. I promised you before that I would give freedom to all of your people. But as the emperor of the Heavenly King District, I still hope that you can stay. After all, there is currently no place suitable for so many of your people to live in." Luo Tian said sincerely.
"Life might be hard in other places, but it's better than being sent here to be a human battery, or even die miserably," Jiuhai said.
Luo Tian still wanted to try his best to keep them, but he knew in his heart that the future of Uranus City was unknown and his own destiny was not necessarily in his own hands. What qualifications did he have to persuade Jiuhai and his people to stay here?
"I really hope you can stay. Of course, I respect your choice. If you must take your people away, I will not stop you. On the contrary, I will wish you a happy life. Tell me when you leave, I will bring the army to protect your safe departure and see you off." Luo Tian picked up the wine jug and filled Jiuhai with wine.
