487: Arrival at the Dragonland Galaxy Group

“I ask you, the Chairman is gone, and the Vice Speaker who should have taken office first is also gone. If we select from within, who is most qualified to be Chairman?”

The official continued to guide the other party’s thoughts.

“That goes without saying, it must be the Secretary of the Disciplinary Committee who exposed the illegal Chairman and Vice Speaker… Wait… are you saying…”

The young official suddenly realized, a look of surprise on his face.

“That’s right, that’s the reason. The Secretary has been in our Galaxy for decades. When the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Committee was selected before, he was chosen. Now that he has achieved such great merit, seeing the Chairman’s position vacant, he was then parachuted over. Don’t you think that’s infuriating?”

The official shook his head helplessly, seemingly understanding the Secretary’s feelings.

“Then I understand. If it were me, I’d also feel a bit indignant.”

The young official nodded, showing deep agreement.

“However, these are matters for their higher-ups. It’s best for us minor officials not to get involved. The Longlan Star Cluster is different from other Galaxies. Just do your job diligently and wait for a transfer or a promotion when the time comes.”

At this moment, another older official said earnestly, his eyes revealing a composure that comes from experiencing much in life.

“Understood! A word from you is worth ten years of study!”

The young official looked gratefully at the older official, a look of admiration on his face.

“You flatter me, you flatter me…”

The older official humbly waved his hand. Afterward, everyone dispersed, and the port returned to its usual calm… At this time, in the border garrison of the Longlan Star Cluster, a tense yet expectant atmosphere permeated the air.

The officers and soldiers of the 88th Division of the Imperial Border Security Force, originally stationed here, had been waiting for a long time.

They wore neat military uniforms, stood tall, and their gazes occasionally looked into the vast depths of the universe, as if waiting for some important moment to arrive.

“Has that Nineteenth Division still not arrived?”

A young Military Officer frowned, a hint of impatience in his tone.

He crossed his arms, his eyes revealing some dissatisfaction with the incoming unit.

“Soon, right? The news indicates they’ve already reached the Longlan Star Cluster.”

A slightly older Military Officer next to him said reassuringly, his voice steady and firm, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

“Sigh, I really don’t know why our Homeland Security Force needs to interfere with our Border Security Force’s affairs… Why doesn’t the Imperial Military Department transfer them to the border Galaxy guarded by the Guard Division?”

The young Military Officer couldn’t help but complain, his face showing helplessness and dissatisfaction.

He felt that his unit had always diligently guarded this border, and now to be suddenly replaced by another unit left a bitter taste in his mouth.

“Who knows what the higher-ups are planning? I heard through the grapevine that this is a transfer order issued by the Imperial Military Department. Not to mention our 88th Division, even if our entire army were swapped with their Homeland Security Force, there’s nothing we could do.”

The Military Officer next to him slowly said, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and submission.

In the army, obeying orders is a soldier’s duty. No matter how much dissatisfaction one feels, one must execute orders from superiors.

Just as the Military Officers were exchanging words, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the distant universe.

The light grew brighter and closer, and then, enormous spatial tunnels opened one after another.

A vast fleet, composed of starships, slowly moved through the universe like a giant dragon shimmering with metallic luster.

The starships’ hulls reflected colorful light under the sun, appearing exceptionally magnificent.

Watching the Nineteenth Division’s fleet, the Military Officers of the 88th Division couldn’t help but exclaim.

“Putting everything else aside, this is indeed a unit directly under the Imperial Military Department. These starships, they even have universe class, and more than us.”

A Military Officer’s eyes widened, a look of envy on his face.

universe class starships are the strongest starships in the Empire apart from Imperial-class ones, essentially the core strength of a unit. After all, units equipped with Imperial-class starships are truly rare; even the Imperial Security Force, directly under the Empire, only has them in the Imperial Military Department, not in its subordinate divisions.

“Not just more, did you see that universe class ‘Main God’ Type I starship? That’s the newest model just developed by the Imperial Military Department, and also the first model in the Main God series.”

Another Military Officer excitedly pointed to one of the starships, his voice filled with awe and reverence.

“Damn it, I’m really envious…”

A Military Officer couldn’t help but curse, expressing his inner envy.

Amidst the envious gazes of the 88th Division’s border army, Li Yang’s main starship slowly descended.

With a slight whirring sound, the starship’s hatch slowly opened, and soft light spilled out from within.

Comrade Li Yang, in a crisp military uniform, stood tall and walked steadily and powerfully down the starship.

Not far away, the Division Commander of the 88th Division of the border army had been waiting for a long time.

He stood ramrod straight, his face showing a hint of seriousness and faint displeasure.

Surrounding him were the Military Officers of the 88th Division, their gazes a mix of curiosity and a touch of resistance.

“Comrade Li Yang, since your unit has arrived, let’s begin the handover. My Deputy Division Commander will inform you of the details.”

The Division Commander of the 88th Division of the border army spoke in a flat tone, then turned to leave, his back appearing somewhat resolute, as if he didn’t want to say anything more.

Seeing the Division Commander’s attitude, He Dong and Pal next to him couldn’t help but frown, a flash of displeasure in their eyes.

They were about to say something but were stopped by Li Yang’s outstretched hand.

Comrade Li Yang shook his head slightly, his eyes revealing understanding and tolerance.

“Never mind. After all, on the matter, it was indeed our fault. He Dong, I’m leaving this to you. Since they don’t want to get to know me, then so be it.”

Comrade Li Yang said softly, his voice low and gentle.

He understood in his heart that for the people of the 88th Division, this sudden transfer order was difficult for them to accept.

After all, the 88th Division had been stationed here for so long; they had come to regard this border as their home.

For years, they had stood guard day and night, and every inch of this land bore their sweat and footprints.

Now, to be transferred away just like that, anyone would feel a sense of loss.

Moreover, if it were comrades from the same army being transferred, everyone might have more understanding and closeness. But it was people from another army, and specifically the Homeland Security Force, an army that seemingly had no relation to the border. This would inevitably make the people of the 88th Division feel that their efforts had not received due respect, and naturally, they would harbor dissatisfaction and resistance.
