Chapter 514 Family Meeting
"Uh, boss, I'm sorry to disturb your sleep, but I have to do this... There's a problem with Labdo."
Labdo?
Did that guy break down and turn evil?
Yang Ming sat up in a daze, and the starry sky effects in front of him dissipated on their own.
Lu stood in front of him with a serious face, still wearing a military uniform, which made Yang Ming immediately feel the seriousness of the matter.
——There is some kind of correlation between what Lu wants to do and what skin she changes with.
"What's the problem?"
"Labdota..."
Lu's expression was mixed with a bit of helplessness.
Yang Ming was a little confused, so he stood up and asked, "What's the matter? Hesitating is not your character, being swift and decisive is your trademark."
"I've calculated everything, but I missed this guy."
Lu couldn't help but raise his hand to support his forehead:
“This was a mistake on my part.
“I should have been optimistic about him, but at the time I was focusing on taking down the Sherman Empire’s network, so I didn’t pay much attention to this guy.
"I didn't expect that after being suppressed by me for a while, he decisively gave up and turned around to enter the internal network of Emperor Star.
"He should want to awaken the real Imperial Guard System. Based on his personality, he should feel that he is not strong enough. He may even sacrifice himself to correct the Imperial Guard System."
Yang Ming opened his mouth.
What the hell, Labdo went to the internal network of Emperor Star?
What's there?
The City of Light!
The entrance to the City of Light should be in the Imperial Star Intranet, guarded by reason!
Shouldn't Labdo be most afraid of the real Emperor Guard system awakening and replacing him, a weak advanced version? Why is he!
Boss Yang suddenly became nervous.
But his brows were not furrowed yet, and slowly relaxed.
"That's nothing, Xiaolu," Yang Ming laughed. "Let him go. He can just explore the way for us and check his core data to see what information he can get."
"If there is direct stimulation and intervention, then Li is very likely to be activated, and Levi's fleet may also be activated," said the law. "Even if part of Li's thinking is against Levi, as long as she is activated, she should be bound by the rules set by Levi."
"Then fight them."
Yang Ming smiled easily and said:
"Lv, there is no war that is truly winnable, and we absolutely cannot be afraid of fighting now.
“If we calculate everything carefully and wait until our overall strength completely exceeds that of the enemy before going to war, then what awaits us can only be a decisive attack from the enemy before we reach that critical value.
“The enemy is not stupid, and Li’s feelings towards Levi are too complicated. These are things we cannot control.
"We have now gone to war with the Sherman Empire. Both sides have suffered heavy casualties. The empire is now on the verge of collapse due to internal and external troubles.
"Now, as long as we allow the Dark Star Fleet to gain a local advantage when facing the Levi Fleet, the Empire will collapse.
"Labdo's entry into the Imperial Star Network is a crisis as well as an opportunity for us. We must not lose the courage to challenge the strong."
Lu thought carefully and said, "Yes, boss, we can enter the decisive battle state at any time now."
"Then what are you afraid of? Fight them!"
Yang Ming smiled and said:
“Of course, we try not to be proactive.
“Let’s wait for their reaction and continue to put pressure on the Empire.
"Law... don't take reason too seriously. If it doesn't work, I can still physically remove her screws."
"Well," Ritsu said, a little depressed, "It feels bad to mess up."
"How are preparations for our family meeting going?"
Yang Ming was no longer sleepy:
"It just so happens that if the next step is the final battle with Li, then we can all get together now."
"I've already notified everyone. This battleship is heading towards Dark Star Base VI. It's not too far from here. Can we meet up there?"
“Is it offline?”
Yang Ming smiled and said, "I thought it was solved online."
"Some participants are online and cannot come here. Those who can come to participate try to participate offline as much as possible."
"Alright," Yang Ming thought for a moment, "Is it convenient for Bly to come over?"
Lu couldn't help but ask back: "Is Bly also considered your core confidant?"
"He knows a lot of our secrets. He also knows that Yang Ming is the White Ghost. He is already under our control and has considerable power in his hands," Yang Ming groaned. "Let's call him. Although he is a murderer, which I don't like about him, he has a lot of resources in his hands. We need this power."
"Yes, boss."
"At this moment, we must unite as much as possible."
Yang Ming couldn't help but sigh.
This little Labdo.
It really gave him a little scare.
…
Two galactic hours later.
Dark Star Sixth Base.
This solid planet was discovered to be an abandoned resource planet. There were many traces of human activities on the surface of the planet, the mountains and rivers were completely destroyed, and many areas collapsed into basins.
There is a very clever saying:
The more advanced human civilization is, the more serious the damage it will cause to the planet.
Just like this planet, except for the surface features, the star shell has been completely hollowed out by the dark star's mechanical thinking body, and some factories have even been opened up to the upper layer of the star mantle.
After the heavy battleship that Yang Ming was on entered the outer atmosphere, it disappeared directly at the edge of the atmosphere.
This is Lu's big move, covering the entire planet with a holographic camouflage layer.
The battleship fell towards a basin. Ripples appeared in the center of the basin. The ground slowly cracked, revealing the silver-gray dock below.
Yang Ming watched this scene calmly.
Although everything here originated from his orders, he did not have a strong sense of participation.
The battleship docked steadily, and the "crew" on board were ordered to rest in place. The thinking bodies returned to the Dark City attached to this place to have a drink with acquaintances, or find a place to have a good meal, or to meet their physiological needs.
As soon as Yang Ming walked out of the bow of the battleship, Mimili, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed up wearing a flight backpack and hugged Yang Ming tightly through two layers of space suits.
"You scared me to death, uncle!"
"I thought you were going to lose to Sherman, uncle!"
"Why not use Dark Star's fleet? Luo Feng's own fleet is nothing compared to the fleet here!"
Yang Ming smiled and patted her back, taking advantage of her at the same time.
" Don't worry , everything is within Lu's calculations. Isn't this a win?"
Yang Ming said softly, holding her in his arms and boarding the ferry that was waiting nearby.
The two of them were affectionate in the spaceship for a long time.
Mimi Li hummed slightly: "Uncle, are you sure you want to call this a family meeting?"
"Hmm?" Yang Ming wondered, "What's wrong?"
"Of course I don't mind," Mimi Li's impeccably beautiful face smiled slightly, "Captain Catherine is also among the participants. I'm afraid it will be a little embarrassing."
Only then did Yang Ming realize this was happening.
His attention was drawn to the current war and the possible crises that might arise in the future.
"Well," Yang Ming smiled with narrowed eyes, not knowing how to answer for a moment.
Mimi Li said calmly, "I'm not a very conservative woman. You know, uncle, we already have enough companionship and emotional attributes. But at the same time, I also know that Catherine must still have a good impression of you, uncle, and you also have a relationship experience... How about we not sit close to each other later? Otherwise, everyone will feel awkward."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "You arrange the seating for this meeting. Lu, come and discuss this with Mimi Li."
"Hey! I'm here!"
Lu's pocket projection appeared on the side.
Yang Ming winked at Lu, who immediately understood what he meant. He moved to Mimili's ear and whispered to her.
Yang Ming was really sweating.
He almost forgot that he also had an emotional life.
When Yang Ming arrived at the conference room of the base, the scene was not awkward.
There weren't many people attending this meeting, so a long dining table would suffice.
Yang Ming sat down in the main seat. The three-dimensional projection of old Kolev appeared on his right. He was hiding in a spaceship somewhere, enjoying a delicious meal.
The seat on Yang Ming's left was reserved for Emilia, who was still attending a consultation meeting and would join the small meeting here remotely later.
Mimily sat to the right of Kolev, and to her right was Molly’s projection;
Catherine's projection was opposite Mimili, close to Emilia's position.
Except for Catherine, Kolev, and Emilia and Bray who have not yet arrived, the rest of the participants are attending in "physical form".
There are two little ones here - the Valkyrie Posa who has not yet grown into a young girl, and the clone 1302 who has developed a bit quickly;
There was 026, an old hero of Yang Ming's gang. She had already learned the news that her nephew had died in battle, and she was in a very low mood;
There were also the backbone of Dark Star, the foreign war representative Dabiqi, the Terminator representative Guina, and six representatives from different fields such as scientific research, production, and construction. Most of them sat far away from Yang Ming.
Gudunmaha did not appear in this small meeting because he had too many family concerns.
Most of Yang Ming's subordinates are not qualified to sit here.
The background of that little guy Qing is still unclear and the composition is too complicated, so of course he can't appear here.
Catherine was staring at Yang Ming silently.
She looked a little tired, but there was always a smile on her lips.
Yang Ming looked at her. There was no greeting between them, but it seemed like they said something.
A few seconds later, Catherine called out with a smile, "Boss."
Yang Ming shrugged slightly: "Okay, you can yell whatever you want."
Mimili and Molly were talking and laughing, and didn't look at Yang Ming much.
"Sorry, I'm late!"
Emilia's voice arrived before she did.
The chair to Yang Ming's left flickered slightly, and Emilia hurriedly joined the meeting, greeting Lu and Mimili.
Then, Emilia looked at Captain Catherine and asked quietly, "Bounty Hunter, won't you introduce yourself?"
"No hurry, there's still one guy who hasn't come yet," Yang Ming said with a smile, "We'll introduce them together later."
In the corner of the conference room, several rays of light intertwined back and forth, weaving out a figure in a white robe. It was naturally Bligh.
When Bly saw the scene in front of him, he was stunned.
Although he had received a message from the 'boss' secretary' in advance asking him to attend a meeting of the boss's core circle, he was still a little surprised when he appeared here and saw these figures in front of him.
"Bray! Come here!"
Yang Ming greeted him with a smile, and Bray immediately walked forward quickly.
Bligh's Stinger had been requisitioned by the Empire before, and he was currently on vacation in his own secret little base, where secrecy and security were guaranteed.
Bly quickly arrived beside Catherine, and a mechanical maid immediately came forward and added a seat for him.
Boss Yang glanced at his watch out of habit and said slowly:
"Okay, now that everyone is here, I'll give a brief introduction to everyone I haven't met before."
Lu's projection appeared behind Yang Ming, standing quietly with his hands behind his back.
Yang Ming pointed at Bray who had just arrived.
"This is Bligh, the Imperial Super-Commissioner. He is also my most capable combat subordinate. He is good at mind control. He controls some of the Imperial officials and the entire Super-Commissioner organization."
Bligh stood up and bowed three times to everyone. Although he was smiling brightly, it was still obvious that he was a little nervous.
The famous imperial executioner and sexless angel would actually be nervous.
Yang Ming continued, "This is Kolev, also known as Hatton, an energy tycoon of the Falling Wind Alliance. He is my guide on the great voyage, my half-mentor, and also my first mate."
"Hey!" Kolev muttered in dissatisfaction, "A mentor is a mentor, how can he be just half a mentor?"
"This is Emilia, Edwan's sister and the current leader of the Falling Wind Alliance."
Emilia stood up and performed a very ladylike manner.
Yang Ming motioned for her to take a seat and continued:
"Emilia plays an extremely important role in our Luofeng-Dark Star system, and I have given her enough authority in the Dark Star system.
“If I have to go to the higher-dimensional world later, Emilia will take over the entire system when I leave.
"Don't be surprised. I am an ancient god warrior trained by the Faya people. I have the same fate as Posa. The war in the higher-dimensional world continues. Posa and I will be summoned there eventually, but I don't know when it will happen."
Everyone nodded, and Bray seemed to be thinking about something.
Yang Ming narrowed his eyes and smiled: "This is Captain Catherine. You should all have heard of her name. She is the leader of the resistance organization within the empire and an important part of our entire power system."
Catherine stood up and saluted.
"This is Mimily, our pirate queen, Kolev's daughter, and my close combat partner. She has excellent command and leadership abilities, and is a very important auxiliary force in our system."
“I’m also good at beauty and hairdressing.”
Mimi Li said this with a smile, and everyone smiled.
"026, my right-hand man, has been active in the Sherman Empire before, so she won't be in Luofeng now."
"This is Posa. I don't think I need to introduce her in detail..."
Po Su raised her little face and said, "I am the mother."
Boss Yang almost rushed over with a dark face and committed domestic violence;
Mimi and Molly laughed so hard that they fell backwards.
When Yang Ming introduced Hera's clone, he simply gave her name, and then asked Lu to introduce the mechanical thinking bodies from the Dark Star one by one.
After the first session, Yang Ming went straight to the point.
"The reason I called you all to this meeting today is actually to inform you that our decisive battle with the Sherman Empire has officially begun."
“Everyone sitting here is my teacher, comrade, brother, and fellow traveler whom I completely trust.
"I will first tell you some secrets, some secrets about me, so that you can fully understand me and my symbiotic mechanical thinking body, Law."
