Sorry, My Interstellar Fleet Only Recruits Women

Dragon Empire - Imperial Military Research Institute

As its name suggests, the Imperial Military Research Institute specializes in military research.

And one of them is the most prestigious research institute among them.

In the only X-Dragon system.

And right next to it is the largest industrial park of JF-17.

It can be said that any idea or military-related plan here can be put into production immediately.

Furthermore, from the Imperial Military Research Institute, one can see the T6 Steel Star City No. 1 in the distance from a position with a porthole.

At that moment, a shuttle quietly entered the hangar of the Imperial Military Research Institute.

Chief Engineer's Office of the Research Institute

Chief Engineer Anne leaned back on the sofa, her feet on the table, sucking on a duck neck, with a glass of iced cola beside her.

The most popular drama of the moment is playing not far away.

"Chief Engineer, this...this latest manufacturing plan." At this moment, the angel assistant walked in.

Seeing Chief Engineer Annie looking relaxed in the office, her expression was incredibly strange.

The current Chief Engineer Anne is completely different from the former Chief Engineer Anne.

All these changes began when His Majesty the Emperor appeared.

Since then.

Chief Engineer Anne never works overtime, and during her breaks, she absolutely refuses to talk about anything, not even work-related matters.

Several times, Chief Engineer Nana grabbed her ear and forced her to handle some work-related matters.

However, it must be said that Chief Engineer Annie has extremely strong technical talent. Even without working overtime, she can still cooperate with other departments to complete the original work tasks on schedule.

However, Chief Engineer Anne seems even more... laid-back right now.

Annie finished eating the duck neck and glanced at the time next to her: "There are still one minute and thirty seconds until I have to go to work."

"Report to me when the time comes."

The angel assistant paused, then could only stand there with a helpless expression.

That minute and a half passed quickly.

The assistant immediately spoke up, "Chief Engineer, this..."

"Wait a moment, I'm going to the restroom."

"I ate too much just now." Annie stretched, clutching her newly acquired empire, and prepared to turn left at the door to go to the nearby restroom for a paid toilet break.

But before he could even leave the house, he was bumped into by a figure.

Annie, who was walking with her head down watching a show, rubbed her head and said with a pained expression, "Who is it...?"

The moment Annie looked up, she froze.

She saw Zhao Chen standing in front of her.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." The angel assistant beside him immediately bowed, his eyes filled with joy.

"Hmm." Zhao Chen nodded slightly at his angel assistant, then looked at Annie in front of him.

He pointed to the time: "It's time to go to work, where are you going?"

"I...I...I'm going to go check on how the various production plans are going?" Annie said somewhat guiltily.

As she spoke, Annie prepared to walk around it.

But Zhao Chen pressed her head down, then lifted her by the neck and turned her around 180 degrees, sending Chief Engineer Annie back to her desk and chair.

“I’ve reviewed those production plans, and there are no problems.”

"Well... that's good." Annie sat down in the chair guiltily. She deliberately changed the subject and immediately looked at Zhao Chen with a fawning smile: "Why did Your Majesty come here in person?"

I heard that the fighting on the front lines just ended, right?

"There must be many things that need to be dealt with by His Majesty."

Zhao Chen sat down on the sofa next to him and said calmly, "I've handed those matters over to my subordinates."

They are more professional than me.

“That’s true. You always say that professional matters should be left to professionals,” Anne immediately agreed.

Then Annie looked at Zhao Chen and asked, "What brings His Majesty to the research institute?"

If there's anything you need to explain, you can say it in the communication.

There's no need for you to make the trip yourself.

"It's alright. This time, I really do need to make the trip myself," Zhao Chen said calmly, looking around.

Annie's heart skipped a beat.

Every time Zhao Chen came to visit, it was never anything good.

Either a new production plan is being formulated, or a new type of interstellar warship is about to enter production.

These things undoubtedly increase her workload.

Perhaps they guessed what Annie was thinking at that moment.

Zhao Chen said calmly, "Don't worry, there is indeed a new type of interstellar warship going into production this time."

However, I will take care of the related matters; Elise can handle the rest.

You don't need to be responsible for this part.

Hearing this, Anne breathed a sigh of relief.

But he still politely said, "Actually, I'd be happy to help."

If there's anything that Sister Elise can't handle, I can help.

"Since you put it that way, then I'll hand over my work to you," Zhao Chen said with a smile to Annie.

Anne froze immediately, then looked away, fiddling with her fingers in front of her, and said softly, "Well... I just remembered, I have a lot of work to do right now."

My assistant just came to talk to me about work.

"Right, Nicole?"

Nicole, the angel's assistant, paused for a moment, then subconsciously said, "Yes, I was just about to discuss some work-related matters with the chief engineer..."

"Alright, alright."

"You don't need to be responsible for these things." Zhao Chen certainly knew what Annie was thinking.

This time, he was indeed not planning to entrust her with the production plan for those new interstellar warships.

“I’ll stay here for a while to discuss and finalize the production plans for those new interstellar warships with your sister Nana and Elise,” Zhao Chen said, standing up.

Should we stay for a while?

Anne seemed to sense something, and she immediately said to her angel assistant Nicole, "Nicole, did you hear that?"

His Majesty will be staying for a while; please arrange an office for him immediately.

If I remember correctly, there's an office on the south side of the research institute...

Nicole, the angel's assistant, looked at Chief Engineer Anne with a strange expression.

Because the place that Chief Engineer Anne mentioned was indeed an office.

However, the distance from Chief Engineer Anne's office was practically the entire world within this Imperial Military Research Institute.

They are located at the farthest ends.

"No.

"I just saw an office next door, we can just go there," Zhao Chen said, pointing to a wall next to him.

Anne's expression froze, and you could clearly see the look of someone who had just eaten a bitter melon on her face.

But she quickly managed a smile: "That's fine too."

Nicole, go and get ready right away.

This time, Zhao Chen did not stop Nicole.

However, he made a request.

"Nicole," Zhao Chen called out.

"Your Majesty," Nicole, the angel assistant, looked respectfully at the Emperor.

Zhao Chen turned around and tapped the wall separating the office in front of him from the office next door.

"Let someone knock down this wall first."

"Make the whole office bigger and more open," Zhao Chen said.

“Yes,” Nicole, the angel's assistant, replied.

Meanwhile, Chief Engineer Anne looked utterly devastated; the wall had been knocked down.

Wouldn't that connect the two offices together?

When that time comes, won't you even have the chance to slack off, take a paid break, or even go to the toilet?

“Your Majesty, um...” Anne still wanted to fight for a glimmer of hope for a better future.

But at this moment, this ray of light seemed to have been extinguished by some powerful force.

"You stay here."

I have something else to discuss with you.

You do not need to participate in the construction plan for the new interstellar warship.

However, I want to independently set up the production of near-T7 or T7-level interstellar warships.

"I need your cooperation." Zhao Chen looked at Annie.

"I...I...I understand." Annie was completely petrified.

The wonderful life I finally got back is now completely gone.

No~~~

Anne felt as if she had collapsed to the ground, reaching out to grasp the infinite beauty of life.

But behind her, Zhao Chen, with his devil horns, was watching all this with a sinister smile, as if a giant were controlling the weak Annie.

It must be said that Nicole, the angel assistant, is very efficient.

It took about ten minutes.

The walls between the two adjacent offices have been completely demolished, and even the areas where they were demolished have been covered with new wall material.

There is no trace of it having been demolished.

Meanwhile, the office next door, which had been unused before, now had all the necessary equipment installed.

It can basically meet all of Zhao Chen's subsequent work needs.

Zhao Chen looked at everything with satisfaction, admiring his angelic assistant Nicole: "Your work efficiency is quite good."

"Your name is Nicole, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

I come from the Holy Angel race, and I was originally a starship engineer within the Holy Angel race.

Later, because the Angel race joined the Dragon Empire, I became very interested in the Dragon-class interstellar warships.

In addition, the Dragon Empire recruited within the Angelic territory, including industrial talent.

I gave it a try, and to my surprise, I was accepted directly.

I was also very fortunate to become Chief Engineer Annie's assistant!

His Majesty the Emperor, and the chief engineers, have always been my idols.

Idol?

Zhao Chen glanced at Annie, who was slumped over the desk like a corpse.

This guy?

Idol?

"You are very good and very talented."

I will be working here for a while.

"You can also serve as my assistant." Zhao Chen naturally had information on this angelic Nicole assistant.

She was not only Chief Engineer Anne's assistant, but also in charge of many construction projects.

If the other chief engineers' assistants are excellent, then Nicole is even more outstanding.

Part of the reason is also because of Anne.

Because Annie often delegates many things to Nicole.

Especially during the period when Zhao Chen returned, Nicole was basically given all the tasks that required going out and personally going to the site to supervise.

Nicole also demonstrated her professionalism, successfully completing all the tasks assigned to her.

It can be seen as a test and improvement of her own skills.

This is why Zhao Chen made Nicole his assistant.

"It is a great honor."

"Please give any instructions, Your Majesty!" Nicole exclaimed, barely able to contain her excitement.

Becoming His Majesty's assistant was something Nicole could never have dreamed of.

As is widely known, the industrial blueprints for all active-duty Xiaolong-series interstellar warships within the Xiaolong Empire were provided by His Majesty the Emperor.

Furthermore, His Majesty's technical expertise in this area has been personally witnessed by several chief engineers, and some engineers who have had contact with him admit that they are not as good as him.

To be able to work alongside such a person is an immense honor.

Zhao Chen quickly got into work mode.

Because of the wall separating them, Annie couldn't openly slack off, since Zhao Chen's desk and hers were facing each other, only a few dozen meters apart.

Even so, Anne still felt like she was being watched all the time.

We dare not be careless in the slightest.

However, as time goes by...

Anne's ulterior motives still surfaced. She feigned surprise, dropping a tool from her hand to the ground.

"Oh no, I dropped something!" Annie exclaimed, then jumped off the chair.

A dozen seconds later, Annie took the item and sat back down in the chair.

A few minutes later, something else fell.

"Why did it fall again?" Annie feigned helplessness and jumped off the chair again.

This cycle continues.

Anne sat contentedly in her chair, dealing with the tasks at hand.

"Hiccup~".

I couldn't help but let out a burp.

I feel a little thirsty.

Annie knocked something to the ground again.

"How did it fall again?" Annie said guiltily, jumping to the ground once more.

Taking advantage of the moment when the table covered her body, she immediately pulled out a large bottle of cola from under the table, held it in both hands, and tilted her head back to gulp it down.

Glug glug glug

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly, a voice came from the side.

This startled Annie so much that she shuddered.

"Cough cough cough..." Annie's drink instantly gushed out of her mouth and into her nose.

Annie coughed uncontrollably because she choked.

Tears welled up in my eyes.

It took a long time for him to recover.

Annie looked up and gazed resentfully at her younger sister Nana standing beside her.

"I just want some water," Annie muttered softly.

"Want some water? And what are these?" Nana unceremoniously pulled out all the snacks from under her desk.

In an instant, it piled up into a small mountain.

This time, Annie was caught red-handed.

"His Majesty works with you, and you're slacking off here!" Nana pointed at Zhao Chen, who was working at a desk in the 'next' office.

I looked at Annie with a heavy heart.

Annie looked up with some shame at Zhao Chen in the next office.

Instantly, her eyes widened.

Because she saw Zhao Chen pull out a spicy snack and put it in his mouth.

"He...he...he's eating too!"

Nana frowned and turned to look at His Majesty. His Majesty was still engrossed in his work, with countless data displayed on several electronic screens in front of him.

"Your Majesty is eating spicy snacks?"

I think you've eaten too many spicy snacks; you see everyone as a spicy snack.

"All your snacks are confiscated!" Nana turned around and looked at Annie.

Anne's eyes widened instantly—her empire!

At that moment, she saw Zhao Chen across from her, took out a bottle of some kind of beverage, and took a sip.

His gaze also drifted towards Annie, a look of schadenfreude on his face.

Annie opened her mouth, unsure of what to say...

The baby is heartbroken...
