"We need to find some suitable capital."
After taking the entire mechanical planet into the Shenwei VII space, Wang Han pondered for a moment, took a step, and disappeared into the universe once again.
————————————————
When Wang Han reappeared, he had arrived in a star system 700,000 light-years away. This star system had fifteen satellites orbiting it, and these satellites were all home to highly advanced civilizations and inhabited by octopus-headed aliens. The Ninth Satellite among these satellites was the home star system of the Dapru Empire, and also the location of the Dapru Empire's command center. These planets emitted many powerful energy reactions, and even contained the memories of seven or eight stellar warriors from the aliens' past, including one Betelgeuse warrior. And here, all the information Wang Han needed was also present.
"Let's finish this quickly so we can get back to Earth in this timeline and have a hot meal. I wonder which world this Earth is from; its technology is already quite advanced." Looking at the star system in front of him, Wang Han smiled, then his figure flashed and disappeared again.

Dapulu is the home planet of the Dapulu Empire and also its highest administrative planet.
"Gentlemen, we are holding this emergency meeting today because the fleet that attacked the inhabited planet DQ12 has been completely wiped out. Just like three thousand years ago, before its destruction, no news of encountering a powerful enemy came back. In addition, the inhabited planet DQ12 also suffered heavy losses because of our attack."
In the Imperial Council Hall, the Supreme Councilor of Planet Dapru read aloud the news he had just received to the hundreds of councilors surrounding him. After finishing the reading, the Supreme Councilor looked at the hundreds of councilors seated in the assembly, awaiting their opinions.
"Buzz buzz buzz..." After the highest councilor finished reading the message, the councilors began to buzz and discuss among themselves. These councilors represented more than twenty highly intelligent races of the Dapru Empire. They were all representatives of the major families of the Dapru Empire, and most of them possessed either very strong strength or extremely high intelligence.
However, even with their high intelligence, the limited information they had made it difficult for them to make any judgments. The only thing they could determine from the news of the two fleet annihilations was that the planet they were targeting was protected by a very powerful entity, at least a star-level entity, or even a star system-level entity that they couldn't afford to offend. It could also be some kind of very powerful technological weapon that did not belong to the DQ12 inhabited planet.
However, regardless of the protection from skilled warriors or the advanced technology, they had already sent spies to investigate when their first attacking fleet was destroyed three thousand years ago. And after three thousand years of investigation, they found absolutely nothing. This is what led them to decide to launch a second attack.
“I think we can start by showing goodwill.” After much discussion, just as the highest councilor was about to lose patience, one councilor spoke up. “Right now, we cannot ascertain the enemy’s true intentions, so it is not advisable to use force again to avoid unnecessary losses. We can first show goodwill to avoid war, secretly continue investigating the cause of the fleet’s destruction, and find another safe way to conquer the inhabited planet DQ12.”
Upon hearing this councilor's words, the other councilors nodded in agreement. This was indeed a solution. As for showing goodwill, it was tantamount to admitting defeat. For an empire like the Dapru Empire, which had existed in the universe for a long time, losing face was also a way for the empire to progress and become stronger.
However, while everyone agreed with the senator's proposal, no one voiced their support; instead, they all turned their attention to the top senator.
"Then let's do as you say and send a peace caravan for exchanges." Upon hearing this, the highest councilor nodded in approval. This coincided with his own thoughts.
"I second that..."
"I second that..."
With the top legislator giving the final approval, the other legislators seconded it, thus establishing their positions on the settled outcome.
"I think war is more practical; your plans are too complicated."
Just then, amidst a chorus of seconders, a different voice rang out, its sound overwhelming all the others and clearly reaching the ears of every member of parliament.
"..." As the voices of opposition rang out, the entire council chamber fell silent, and all the members looked up at the suicidal voice.
The top senator's face was grim, and his heart was burning with anger.
When all the council members realized that the voice came from an unfamiliar race, the atmosphere in the council chamber immediately tensed. All the council members stood up, ready to fight at any moment. After all, anyone who could sneak into the council chamber during a meeting of hundreds of powerful council members was no ordinary person. Several council members' expressions changed; clearly, they recognized the race of this uninvited guest.
"Who are you?" The Supreme Councilor's expression shifted as he looked at the suddenly appearing Wang Han. He quickly suppressed his anger and asked calmly, even with a hint of friendliness. He recognized the uninvited guest as belonging to the intelligent race of the DQ12 life-bearing planet. The sudden appearance of this uninvited guest signified considerable danger, forcing him to suppress his rage and handle the situation with composure.
(The universe is teeming with powerful beings and unknowns, and countless bizarre events unfold, their consequences equally uncertain. In this vast cosmos, numerous galactic empires have perished for unknown reasons. Even as the supreme councilor and strongest figure of the mighty Dapru Empire, he must tread carefully, always observing the unknowns of the universe from the perspective of a weakling. Although war is an essential part of cosmic expansion, even attacking a small planet requires extensive investigation. Some planets, though technologically backward, harbor incredibly terrifying life forms.)
