As Long as You're Happy (First Update)

"I never expected it to be like this. Father, you've had a hard time."

Silver Surfer couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, and then asked:

"So what's the situation now, and why is the Kree Empire attacking Zenn-La?"

"Because of the war between the Kree Empire and the Nova Empire!"

Ryder the 20th's face immediately showed anger:

"The war between the Kree Empire and the Nova Empire is now at a fever pitch, and it is impossible to determine a winner in the short term."

Our Zenn-La is located at the boundary between the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Milky Way Galaxy.

So the Kree Empire forced us to join them, send troops to help them attack the Nova Empire, and at the same time use Zenn-La as a temporary resting place for the Kree Empire.

"Are they trying to use our Zenn-La as cannon fodder?"

Silver Surfer immediately realized what was happening.

If this is agreed to, Zenn-La's fleet will suffer heavy casualties. Without a fleet to protect itself, Zenn-La will not only be used as a temporary resting place for the fleet, but will likely become a war slave planet.

"Yes, there were several planets that were also sandwiched between the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Milky Way Galaxy before, but now they are basically dead in name only, with very few people left."

Ryder the 20th was so angry that his mustache stood on end.

The Silver Surfer turned to look at Hawking:

"Hawking, what do you think I should do now to stop the Kree Empire's plot?"

He wanted to destroy the enemy's warships directly, but he was also afraid that, as Hawking said, he would completely offend the Kree Empire and bring even more trouble to Zenn-La.

Hawking thought for a moment, then smiled and said:

"It's actually very simple. You don't need to take action. Just go to their flagship and tell their general that Zenn-La is the Planet Devourer, has taken a liking to, and that they are not allowed to enter."

Once they recognize you, they'll definitely back off on their own and won't cause any more trouble.

The Planet Devourer died on Earth, a fact unknown to anyone in the universe except Earthlings and the Celestials.

Beings of the Celestials' caliber wouldn't have any dealings with the Kree Empire, much less leak information to them.

With the example of Planet Devourer devouring the Skrulls capital, the Kree Empire would naturally dare not take any further action if it knew that Zenn-La had Planet Devourer.

The Kree Empire is currently at war with the Nova Empire. If they were to offend a being of Planet Devourer's caliber at this time, they would likely face the same fate as the Skrull Empire.

Even though Zenn-La is a very good strategic planet, it's definitely not worth it for such a small planet.

As long as there is no war and no deaths, there is no hatred between the two countries. The Supreme Intelligence of the Kree Empire is not stupid; it is the most intelligent life computer and knows how to weigh the pros and cons.

"If they don't believe you, you can show them a little bit of your strength, but it's best not to kill anyone. You can blast some of those meteorites outside to scare them."

"Okay, I understand. Wait for me here, I'll be right back."

Silver Surfer thought Hawking's words made perfect sense, so he rode his skateboard through the main ship and charged toward the Kree Empire's warship.

Seeing the Silver Surfer disappear, a glint flashed in Ryder the 20th's eyes, then he turned to Hawking and smiled:

"What is your name, sir?"

Having been an emperor for over two hundred years, he was no fool. The moment he saw the Silver Surfer, he knew that Zenn-La's powerful backer had arrived, and there was hope for a comeback.

He was naturally unwilling to submit to the invasion of the Kree Empire, so he deliberately put on this show to see if he could force the Kree Empire's fleet to retreat.

Let the Kree Empire understand that even if they can take Zenn-La, it will come at a great cost, thus forcing them to give up.

However, the Kree Empire wasn't stupid. They clearly weren't buying his act and knew he couldn't afford to destroy everything.

That's indeed the case. He couldn't just go down in flames like that, because Zenn-La was definitely no match for the Kree Empire, and in the end, it might not even be as good as those planets with similar strategic locations as Zenn-La.

Therefore, if the Silver Surfer hadn't appeared, he would definitely have bowed his head; at least then, the royal family members could still go to the Kree Empire and live a good life.

But things are different now. He also knows about the Skrull Empire's capital being swallowed up and knows the Silver Surfer's strength. As long as the Silver Surfer is willing to take action, Zera can still remain independent and free.

In fact, the Kree Empire also knew that the Silver Surfer came from Zenn-La, which is why they had not taken action against Zenn-La before.

However, later, Kree Empire spies on Zenn-La obtained information that the Silver Surfer had lost his memories and emotions after being Planet Devourer.

Because after the transformation, the first thing the Silver Surfer said was that Zenn-La met the criteria for being devoured and could be devoured.

With no longer any concerns about the Silver Surfer and Planet Devourer, the Kree Empire finally sent its fleet over.

Now that the Silver Surfer has regained his memories, as long as we can stir up his emotions, he will definitely help us.

So, half of his emotions just now were an act for the Silver Surfer, the old master, and it worked quite well.

However, he is now very curious about the person who is with the ancestor. The fact that this person is with the ancestor and that the ancestor attaches great importance to this person's opinion indicates that this person's identity must be extraordinary.

"Just call me Hawking, I'm Nod's friend."

Hawking's Legilimency Spell was always active, and he was fully aware of Ryder the 20th's ulterior motives, but he didn't mind, so he smiled politely.

To him, Ryder the 20th's idea was normal and there was nothing wrong with it. It would be unreasonable for such an old emperor to be a hot-blooded fool.

But that doesn't matter. Regardless of blood ties, Ryder the 20th needs the Silver Surfer's power to protect the planet, so he will definitely worship them like gods.

"Since he is a friend of our ancestor, how can I address him by his name?"

"Therefore, I shall respectfully address you as Ancestor Huo!"

"Ryder the 20th said respectfully."

He still doesn't know much about Hawking, so he'd rather be respectful than offend Hawking. It's just a matter of address; what's the big deal?

"Whatever makes you happy."

Hawking's lips twitched upon hearing this.

"Your Majesty, the entire Kree Fleet has withdrawn!"

Just then, a delighted report came from the control room, and a virtual image was projected into the control room lobby.

In the footage, Silver Surfer flew out of the Kree Fleet, raised his hand and unleashed a burst of Cosmic Energy, instantly blasting a meteorite larger than the Kree flagship. The Kree Fleet immediately turned around and quickly withdrew completely.

Upon seeing this video, all the Zenn-La present, including Ryder the 20th, erupted in excited cheers.
