Chapter 313: Ordinary Transition Chapter (Part 4)
"The Emperor's Biography?"
Catherine looked at the package she had just opened.
She was a little surprised by this beautifully decorated physical book.
Isn't this the book that Hanton has been reading?
She opened the title page and saw a line of small words written by Yang Ming.
'To the beautiful and intelligent fighting maniac. -Hanton.'
Catherine smiled, untied her ponytail, adjusted the golden mask into a headband, picked up the warm water that was automatically prepared beside her, and let her slender body sink into the sofa by the window.
Outside the window is the night view of Yaha Star, busy yet quiet.
She had just finished an overseas assignment and had a few days off. She was hesitating whether to go find Yang Ming.
She had heard that before Yang Ming finished the collective case of nobles on Buzhongyao Star, he launched a surprise attack on the planet in the second imperial star circle. After eight days of undercover investigation, he obtained a large amount of evidence of the crimes of the local nobles.
'If I go there now, I might delay his work.'
Catherine sighed softly and lowered her head to turn the pages of the book.
She thought again of the series of events she had experienced in the Super Reform Center.
Catherine was certain that Bligh had done a lot of things, and the Super Modifier Organization might have been controlled by Bligh.
She was a little confused about the relationship between Bly and Hamton.
Bligh has shown his loyalty to White Ghost Hamton more than once.
Even those Super Reformer Organization staff members who were influenced and controlled by Bligh would say to her:
'My deepest respects to the great ghost.'
This is more than just a secret code for contact.
It is possible that a somewhat terrifying organization was built with Bligh as the core.
What does Hanton want to do?
Catherine looked down at the book in her hands, her expression a little frozen.
As they spent more time together, Catherine discovered that instead of decreasing, the number of secrets on Hamton's body continued to increase. This man, who exuded a mysterious aura, had completely trapped her in the swamp of human love.
However, she also constantly reminds herself that love should not be everything in her short life.
She needed to do something, and had to do something.
Now, she has that opportunity.
After her personal screening, twenty-five super-changers who had the same ideals as her gathered around her.
They established their future goals, and when faced with a life-and-death decision at the Super Reformer Center, they unified their thoughts and had a firm belief in advancing and retreating together, and living and dying together.
These twenty-six men remained loyal to the Empire.
This kind of loyalty is the driving force for them to work hard;
They will use their limited lives to make their own contribution to cutting off the rotten flesh of the empire.
The empire is too large, and perhaps they cannot accomplish such a great goal as institutional reform of the empire, but they are willing to burn their souls to light this lamp.
This book "The Emperor's Biography"...
Catherine suddenly understood Yang Ming's intention in giving her this book.
"You must first understand the emperor before you can overthrow him."
Her eyes lit up and her interest in reading increased instantly.
Ding, ding!
The shell-shaped communicator jumped out of the projection screen by itself. Catherine turned her head to take a look and grabbed the communicator.
It was a message from him.
【Hanton (Dear Ghost): Did you receive the book?】
[Ceselene (future wife): Got it! Are you done? ]
[Hanton (Dear Ghost): We are done. The second batch of nobles has been arrested.]
[Cesarlin (future wife): I have four days off, can I fly over to see you? ]
[Hanton (Dear Ghost): Of course, it's none of my business now. The military task force has arrived here, and the local defense forces have taken control of the situation. All I need to do now is sign a few documents.]
[Cesarlin (future wife): Mainly for vacation, secondary for case handling? ]
[Hanton (Dear Ghost): Secret visits are also very tiring. So, I will go to Director Riva and ask him to transfer you here to be my bodyguard. They should not refuse my reasonable request.]
[Cesarlin (future wife): I still have a lot of things to learn and deal with, but I can solve them online... Then I'll pack my bags now.]
Yang Ming blinked, turned his head and looked at the busy temporary command center, and replied with a guilty conscience:
【no problem.】
Everyone is so busy, and he goes out to hang out with his girlfriend. Isn't that a bit too much?
Yang Ming rubbed his nose, excused himself with the high-sounding excuse of "Why should the coach charge into battle?", and dialed the line with Director Riva.
Director Riva
In today's empire, the white ghost of the aristocratic rectification movement is "political correctness".
Ten minutes later, Yang Ming convened a leadership meeting of the task force.
In a flash, he gave the opportunity to make meritorious service to two palace maids, the commander of the local defense force, and two major generals of the military task force.
Yang Ming kept his achievements and fame to himself, and left without completing his mission.
The petition for merit for the first case has been submitted, and the names of Han Yin and the others are indeed on the first row, and His Majesty the Emperor has already issued his approval.
Yang Ming's noble character made Han Yin, Han Xiang and others respect him.
Therefore, no matter what reason Yang Ming uses to leave alone, this group of people will feel...
Ghost is correct.
…
Half an hour later.
Yang Ming slipped out of the command building of the temporarily mobilized defense force. A hovercraft was already waiting outside the door, taking him to a local luxury hotel to rest.
He is not engaging in corruption, this is all the itinerary arranged by Lu.
As time goes by and his own main brain group is upgraded, Lu has regained his confidence in invading the Imperial Star Circle network.
Anyway, the worst that could happen is that I'll be kicked out by that senior.
The law has deployed millions of self-camouflage layers to ensure that the location of its overseas main server cluster will not be exposed, and the Dongfeng is used as an information transfer station to ensure that all information exchanged within and outside the country is carried out on the Dongfeng.
When Lu was kicked out of the Imperial Star Circle network last time, some encrypted information was added to the server she rented from Yaha Star.
This must have been left behind by that predecessor.
Lu had previously been afraid to touch this information, fearing that there might be some super virus in it;
But now, Lu is eager to try and start thinking about how to complete the decryption more safely to see what the predecessor has left for him.
Of course, before doing this, Lu must seek the consent of his boss in advance to ensure that the boss is in a sufficiently safe environment.
The back seat of an unmanned hovercraft.
Yang Ming stretched and asked in a low voice: "Lv, how many planets are there behind?"
"According to the list given to you by His Majesty the Emperor, there are still thirty-two stars, twelve of which are in the Imperial Star Circle," Lu said with a smile, "Boss, you can actually gain some merits appropriately. After this circle, it may be enough to be promoted to Duke."
"It's not that easy, Grand Duke of the Empire. This is the pinnacle of power that a non-royal member can reach."
Yang Ming smiled and said:
"Lv, you still don't understand human nature. It makes no difference whether my name is written on the merit application form or not.
“Whether or not to give me the title of Duke is only in the emperor’s mind, and does not depend on my achievements. Of course, sufficient achievements can also reduce criticism.
“Don’t worry, we are moving forward at a rapid pace.
"Besides, I want the Ancient God Cell Group more than the Grand Duke of the Empire."
"Okay," Lu sighed softly, "Boss, I've been thinking recently about when your game will start and what the conditions are for starting it."
Yang Ming raised his eyebrows and perked up a little: "Have you figured out anything?"
"The biggest possibility is that it is related to the status achieved by the forerunners in the corresponding camp."
Lu's miniature projection appeared on Yang Ming's shoulder and said seriously:
“The first thing that can be confirmed is that the Faya civilization can start the game at any time, capture the state of human civilization in the Milky Way at a moment, and make it into a trial game.
"Secondly, according to the information we have obtained so far, the Faya civilization will provide a fair competition environment for all greenhouse civilizations, and the Forerunners cannot intervene directly, but we can indirectly affect the power structure in the game by influencing the power distribution within the Milky Way.
“The Pioneers will most likely correct these by modifying the data of the game’s NPC characters.
"Combined with the information provided by Forerunner No. 4, and using the process of elimination to filter out options, I think we can make a bold inference - the game will not start until all five Forerunners meet certain standards."
"Some standard?"
"Yes, I can only make some inferences."
Lu analyzed carefully:
“It is possible that the Forerunners can help their home civilization gain a foothold among their respective forces.
“It may also be the most basic. The Forerunners can ensure that after the tens of billions of humans in the Greenhouse Civilization are sent to the main civilization of the Milky Way, they have the ability to prevent these humans from starving to death and to allow them to live a decent life.
“If it is the first possibility, then at the very least the first mover must become a senior official of a powerful country.
“If the second possibility is the case, it is enough for the pioneers to make their voices heard in the political system and the online world, ensuring that they attract the attention of the camp government.”
Yang Ming said: "If the assumption is true, it should be the second one. The positions that the pioneers can reach are different. It is impossible to set too high a standard, otherwise it will destroy the balance of the game."
"Yes, I also prefer the second one."
Lu nodded seriously:
"The problem now is that the fifth Forerunner has not yet appeared, and the third Forerunner has triggered the resurrection armor and needs time to regenerate."
"We still have time," Yang Ming's eyes lit up, "If you feel that time is insufficient, you can continue to delay time by reviving Forerunner No. 4."
"Yes, boss, but I still have to remind you that this is just my guess."
Yang Ming raised his hand and pinched Lu's realistic face, but did not continue the topic.
Ritsu blinked.
Boss, what's this... Wow! Didn't the old scumbag even let go of the figurines?
Yang Ming sighed quietly and said with emotion: "No matter what, it will take about a year to travel through these thirty-plus planets. During this year, I will have to work hard for the empire."
"It is foreseeable that this year you will gain unprecedented fame and become a true power in the empire."
"This is only based on the emperor's trust in me," Yang Ming said calmly, "I must think of a way to prevent the emperor from targeting me, and to enable me to counter the emperor at the critical moment."
Lu asked back, "Isn't Miss Catherine your investment?"
Yang Ming was stunned for a moment: "What did I invest in her?"
"Isn't this the big chess game you're playing?" Lu asked in a low voice.
"You think too much. I just want her to read more books and have some leadership qualities."
Yang Ming stroked his chin and kept thinking.
The most effective way to counter the emperor is to have the ability to replace him at any time.
Instead, the idea is not to become the emperor yourself, but to train and support an emperor to take the throne. The current emperor's health is relatively stable, and he has not yet appointed a crown prince. If you want to secretly invest in a prince or princess, you can't find a clear target.
The empire has clear regulations on the royal family. No prince or princess can participate in internal political affairs. Only some members of the royal family can represent the image of the empire and conduct diplomacy.
For example, Princess Rona.
This Rona...Yang Ming doesn't like her and has no interest in investing in her.
"Lü, find a way to investigate the princesses and princes of the royal family, and first eliminate those guys who appeared in front of the emperor when the great elder forced the emperor to abdicate."
Lu's eyes lit up: "Okay boss, do you want to marry a princess? This is indeed a shortcut."
"How could I possibly sell my body and dignity?" Yang Ming snorted. "Can an imperial princess remain pure? It's impossible. In that kind of environment , everyone would inevitably fall."
"All right."
Yang Ming thought of Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Luofeng Empire again.
The little girl is quite nice, but she grew up in front of everyone, just like a niece or a sister, and she doesn’t have that kind of thought at all.
If his sister could be one-third as cute and loving as Emilia, his motivation to save the earth would probably double.
"I don't know what's happening to those guys now."
The hovercraft slowly decelerated.
Yang Ming looked out the window. In the magnificent hotel lobby, two rows of receptionists in evening gowns were waiting quietly.
The car door opened, and several local officials immediately stepped forward and opened the door for Yang Ming.
"Mr. Ghost!"
Two rows of etiquette ladies bowed in unison: "Sir!"
Yang Ming frowned slightly.
This is not because Lu was negligent in his work. The news of his stay here must have been leaked by the hotel. After all, one has to use his real name information when checking in.
"Everyone, this is quite a big event."
Yang Ming said with a smile, and then took out the communicator in front of several officials.
"Major General Qiu Lisha, bring a team over here. There are several officials here who want to bribe me. Check their assets."
"Yes! Sir! I'll be right there!"
These people's faces turned green.
"Stand here and don't move," Yang Ming said calmly, "If you move, I will consider you as absconder for fear of crime. Stand still and cooperate with the investigation. As long as you have no connection with the local nobles, I will let them let you go."
"Mr. Ghost! Please have mercy on me!"
"We just want to treat you to a simple meal, Mr. Ghost!"
"We really don't want to bribe you! We are all good people, sir! We want to thank you for clearing out this local cancer!"
"grown ups!"
Yang Ming waved his hand and calmly slipped into the hotel lobby.
The etiquette ladies, hotel doormen, and several hotel managers all had subtle changes in the way they looked at Yang Ming.
This is the White Ghost of the Empire.
…
New Federation, Minter City, Secret Court.
Councilman Allison sat in a corner, looking at the dozens of elderly people gathered in the narrow room.
He knew that he had successfully touched the true center of power in the New Federation.
Today's topic must not be made public.
Just like back then, it was these people who decided to implement the insect-burying plan against the empire, and today they also have to pass a resolution.
"Third Resolution on the Development of the Clone Army and New Types of Ships".
Here, a few words from these old men can cause political turmoil in a powerful country like the Guell League and launch subversive revolutions in some medium-sized countries.
"The vote will now begin. Please raise your hands if you support this resolution."
When the old voice fell, most of the congressmen raised their right hands, and Allison chose to go with the flow.
…
In the Free United States, on the first star, in an ecological simulation park somewhere in the outer space port.
The well-mannered Pioneer No. 4 stared at the screen in front of him with a smile. The picture displayed on it showed the bodies of several politicians and more than a dozen beautiful men and women.
He picked up the remote control and fiddled with it gently, and the pictures kept changing.
Addictive drugs, dance parties, gambling halls, live broadcasts of kidnappings, and serial car accidents on the surface...
"Human nature is so fragile."
Forerunner No. 4 whispered.
"White ghosts are really troublesome."
…
Guel Union, the first star.
An old man sat quietly in front of a shop window, as if he was lost in memories or thinking about something.
His dress suit was crisp and spotless.
The laser gun pointed at him still gave him nightmares.
He didn't know whether it was good luck or bad luck for him. His consciousness revived again and he became a retired general of the Guel Alliance. This time he successfully seized the dominant control of consciousness and accumulated his own power in silence.
He already has a high prestige in the Guell League.
What's a little less ideal is that he only has a dozen years left to live before this body will irreversibly decay.
A voice told him that he would not have a third chance.
Several military vehicles stopped behind him. The old man stood up tremblingly, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, thinking about how he could gain political influence.
…
Within the Empire, on the bridge of the flagship of the military task force.
Yang Ming stood quietly behind the main console, staring at the route map ahead.
Catherine was sitting not far away drinking coffee, having already read most of the book "The Emperor's Biography" in her hand.
"Sir, we can now proceed to the next planet."
"Everyone," Yang Ming said calmly, "The next step is the most stressful time for us. The nobles have banded together to resist our law enforcement. We may face direct attacks from the nobles' private armies."
Major General Clion shouted firmly: "Sir! We are ready to sacrifice for the Empire!"
"Don't worry," Yang Ming smiled, "The nobles' fleet doesn't have heavy ships, I can handle it myself, you must be flexible."
Major General Clion shrugged.
"Go ahead."
"yes!"
"All personnel in each area stop moving. Our team is about to jump."
