"Report, the 'Starship' of the Great World of the Gods is found ahead, and the other party requests to open the communication channel!" The crew reported to President Biddle.
In fact, as early as the "Starship" appeared, the escort fleet had discovered the opponent, but the "Starship" had no weapons at all, and it completely let go of its defenses, allowing the escort fleet to scan its interior, indicating that there was no hostility.
That's why the escort fleet allowed the opponent to get close to the scanning range of the presidential spacecraft before they had the opportunity to apply for contact with the presidential spacecraft.
"It's the 'Starship' from Battle Star!" Secretary Janet explained softly to President Biddle.
Secretary Janet has done some research on Battlestar, and because of the need to communicate with the Star Federation frequently, the 'Starships' in the Battlestar will be equipped with the Starflight Federation's communication system to facilitate communication with the Star Federation.
"Open the communication channel!" President Biddle nodded, and he ordered in a deep voice.
With the opening of the communication channel, a projection appeared in front of him, it was Viscount De Ward.
"I have seen Admiral David!" Viscount De Ward's projection scanned the cabin, and after seeing David, he bowed and saluted, and then saluted President Biddle: "I have seen President Biddle!"
In Viscount De Ward's mind, no one is more important than Admiral David, and he also behaved like this.
He doesn't need to care about President Biddle's opinion at all. Perhaps he sees more clearly the essence of President Biddle's identity, which is currently a symbol and has limited real power.
"Viscount De Ward, what's the matter with you blocking me?" President Biddle asked, not affected by the order of greetings from Viscount De Ward.
If such a problem had arisen before he met Admiral David, President Biddle might still have a grudge.
But since seeing the power of Admiral David with his own eyes, President Biddle no longer wants to compare with Admiral David.
"President Biddle, there is news from the Supreme Council that you have detained Archbishop Choate and his party who met with you. Is there such a thing?" Viscount De Ward asked solemnly.
"It's true, Archbishop Choate and his four entourages are on the spaceship!" President Biddle nodded.
"President Biddle, could you please wait here for a while with your spaceship, Speaker Gould of the Supreme Council is coming, and he will have an interview with you!" Viscount De Ward did not express any excitement, and continued calmly .
"I also hope to meet with Speaker Gould!" President Biddle agreed.
President Biddle glanced at Admiral David beside him, feeling full of confidence in his heart.
Viscount De Ward has no intention of discussing diplomatic matters with President Biddle. He is not equal to President Biddle. He only needs to complete his task, and the rest will be handled by the Supreme Council.
The escort fleet scattered in all directions, protected the presidential spacecraft, and stopped in the outer space of the battle star.
Viscount De Ward's 'Starship' did not leave either, and stopped not far from the presidential spacecraft.
It didn't take long to wait, but two hours later, news came from the escort fleet, and it was discovered that the 'starry space ship' from the great world of the gods was approaching.
When the luxurious 'Starship' approached, a smile appeared on the corner of David's mouth, it was the 'Starship' specially used for the speaker.
The 'starry sky boat' revealed its identity, and then directly docked with the presidential spacecraft. The presidential spacecraft is a telescopic channel, and the speaker's 'starry sky boat' is an energy channel.
After the two passages were connected together, Speaker Gould walked through the passage alone to the presidential spacecraft.
President Biddle stood at the entrance of the presidential spacecraft, welcoming Speaker Gould.
President Biddle is also an old politician. Seeing the expression on Speaker Gould's face, he didn't look angry, and he believed even more in his heart that there was a contradiction between the Temple of War and the Supreme Council that Admiral David said.
"President Biddle and General David both understand the purpose of my visit this time. I want to know why the Interstellar Federation detains Archbishop Choate and his party?" Speaker Gould asked as soon as he took his seat.
"Speaker Gould, in my capacity as the President of the Interstellar Federation, I have submitted a diplomatic note to the Supreme Council of the Divine World, which includes a complete video of the meeting between Archbishop Joate of the Temple of War and us!" President Biddle had already said To prepare, he is also waiting for someone with sufficient status from the God World to come so that he can hand over the diplomatic note in person.
A diplomatic note written in two languages and a video player that could be played directly were placed in front of Speaker Gould by Secretary Janet.
Speaker Gould picked up the diplomatic note and read it carefully, his complexion gradually became ugly.
Before coming, Speaker Gould actually had some guesses.
Because the Temple of War had conflicts with the Supreme Council, it skipped the Supreme Council and directly contacted the Interstellar Federation.
Because the Temple of War has no diplomatic experience, and perhaps the Archbishop who owns the Temple of War is noble, he wants to meet directly with the Federation President.
With the dominance of the Temple of War, once there is a problem with the talks with the Federation President, the Temple of War is very likely to use unconventional means.
It just so happened that President Biddle had just become the President of the Federation. After receiving the application for a meeting with the Archbishop Choate of the Temple of War, he did not have much experience. He only thought that this was a major historic achievement.
Fortunately, several ministers and Marshal Andre were still calm, so they first invited General David to accompany them.
Speaker Gould, who knew what happened, felt extremely ashamed. Although it was not done by the Supreme Council in diplomacy, the Temple of War also represented the great world of the gods.
The Interstellar Federation will not distinguish between the Supreme Council and the Temple of War, it will only think that the god-owned world ignores the most basic rules of diplomacy.
"President Biddle, on behalf of the Divine World, I am deeply sorry for this matter. We will make appropriate concessions on some interests. I hope this incident will not affect the relationship between the Divine World and the Interstellar Federation for ten thousand years." Alliance relationship!" Speaker Gould stood up, bowed deeply to President Biddle and said.
"Speaker Gould, I also understand that the Temple of War is different from the Supreme Council, and I accept the Supreme Council's apology!" President Biddle also stood up and said.
Speaker Gould understood what President Biddle meant. President Biddle could accept the apology from the Supreme Council, but he did not intend to accept the apology from the Temple of War, because Speaker Gould only represented the Supreme Council.
"President Biddle, I will inform the other four temples about the incident, and the four temples will discuss how to deal with the Temple of War, but don't worry, there will never be any foreign affairs involving the Temple of War in the future. !” Speaker Gould assured.
The two sides sat down again, and Speaker Gould could see that President Biddle was willing to solve the problem, and did not want the problem to become too intensified.
This also made Speaker Gould breathe a sigh of relief. He was worried that President Biddle would do something irrational.
The alliance between the Great World of Gods and the Interstellar Federation is related to the interests of Battle Star. If the alliance breaks down, the defense line of the Great World of Gods and the Interstellar Federation against the Zerg World will be wiped out.
In the end, the interests of the Divine World in Battle Star will suffer huge losses, and may even cause the complete collapse of Battle Star.
It must be known that once any of the three parties of the God World, the Interstellar Federation, and the Zerg World cannot benefit from the Battle Star, then that party will not allow the Battle Star to continue to exist and provide a steady stream of resources to the opponent.
The alliance between the Great World of Gods and the Interstellar Federation broke down, and the Great World of Gods needs to invest at least ten times the current combat power in Battle Star in order to barely keep its interests.
And because the Interstellar Federation does not have high-end combat power to fight against, it will lose the interests of the battle star. At that time, the "doomsday defense line" composed of ten artificial planets close to the battle star can destroy the battle star.
"President Biddle, what do you plan to do with Archbishop Choate?" Speaker Gould asked after the atmosphere eased.
This is also the issue that Speaker Gould is most concerned about. In any case, Archbishop Choate is the Archbishop of the Temple of War. He is entrusted by the Four Temples and must do something.
No matter what wrong things Archbishop Choate did, he must be taken back from the hands of the Interstellar Federation, and how to deal with it after returning depends on the decision of the temple.
"You don't need to ask me about this. Archbishop Choate is a prisoner of Admiral David, and everything is up to him!" President Biddle said, not wanting to make decisions on behalf of Admiral David.
This is not an excuse. President Biddle is really not good at making decisions on David's behalf. He needs to consider David's attitude.
He himself was rescued by David, and Archbishop Choate was also captured by David.
Of course, President Biddle heard that Speaker Gould only mentioned Archbishop Choate, so he only answered about Archbishop Choate.
He could tell that Speaker Gould was about to give up the two fifth-level priests and two fifth-level priests accompanied by Archbishop Choate.
Speaker Gould thought exactly this way. If Archbishop Choate's identity wasn't too sensitive, he wouldn't even want Archbishop Choate back.
Isn't it right to apologize with death for making such a major diplomatic mistake
"Admiral David, we are old friends too. I wonder if I can take Archbishop Choate back for my sake?" Speaker Gould turned to David and said with a smile.
Speaker Gould and David have had a lot of contacts in this identity, and have fought side by side on the battlefield together, so Speaker Gould speaks a little more casually.
"Speaker Gould, you still have to give him face. I'll let Archbishop Choate come out, and I'll let him go after I get some loot!" David didn't intend to keep Archbishop Choate forever, he Following the words of Speaker Gould, he replied.
"General David, as long as Archbishop Choate is alive, you can do whatever you want!" Speaker Gould saw that David gave him face in this way, so he naturally handed over his cards.
David nodded, indicating that he understood what Speaker Gould meant. He stood up and walked out of the living room. When he came back after a while, he held Archbishop Choate in his hand.
David casually threw Archbishop Choate on the ground in the middle of the living room, and Archbishop Choate fell limply on the ground, without any demeanor of the Archbishop of the Temple of War.
When Archbishop Choate saw Speaker Gould, he was not at all happy to see the savior, but lowered his head vigorously.
At this time, if there is a hole in the ground, Archbishop Choate would like to stuff his body into the hole.
Speaker Gould was not very happy when he saw the appearance of Archbishop Choate. This is the most prestigious person in the world of God, but now he is curled up on the ground like a dog, which makes him feel sad.
David stretched out his hand, took off the scepter held by Archbishop Choate, and took the space item from Archbishop Choate's body.
He mentally scanned the items in the space, and after seeing the items inside, he couldn't help frowning and was a little dissatisfied with the harvest.
However, considering that Archbishop Choate has just become the Archbishop of the Temple of War, it is estimated that he just wants to get rid of it, and he needs to wait for his status to stabilize before proceeding.
"Give it back to me!" Archbishop Choate didn't care about space items at all. After David took his scepter, he reacted greatly and reached out to grab the scepter back.
David was not polite at all, and kicked him to the ground with one kick.
"Speaker Gould, I will accept these spoils, and Archbishop Choate's people will be handed over to you!" David pointed to the Archbishop Choate on the ground to Speaker Gould.
Speaker Gould's eyes froze. Admiral David's kick just now obviously carried a hidden energy. His strength is not as good as that of Admiral David, and he can't see the effect of that energy, but he doesn't think so. what a good thing.
"Is Archbishop Choate all right?" Speaker Gould asked Archbishop Choate, but his eyes glanced at David.
"Life is absolutely fine!" David said with a faint smile.
Archbishop Choate heard Speaker Gould's inquiry, barely stood up, and told Speaker Gould that he was fine without speaking.
"President Biddle, I will communicate the follow-up of this matter to you through Ambassador Cumming. I will take my leave first!" Speaker Gould stood up and said.
"I am also very concerned about the follow-up of the matter, I hope it won't take too long!" President Biddle also stood up and said.
President Biddle was actually very unwilling, but he also knew that it was impossible for Archbishop Choate to leave it to the Interstellar Federation to deal with.
And the court of the Interstellar Federation could not try Archbishop Choate. The location where the attack occurred was on the border between the Great World of God and Battle Star, and did not belong to the scope of the Interstellar Federation.
Archbishop Choate cannot die unless he fights back on the spot and kills Archbishop Choate.
President Biddle could only remind Speaker Gould of his dissatisfaction with Archbishop Choate by saying that he cared about the follow-up.
"General David, I accept your favor this time!" Speaker Gould did not forget to say to David when he left.
Speaker Gould walked ahead, and Archbishop Choate barely followed.
