Chapter 516: Logic, start!
After the small meeting, Boss Yang, who held a "family dinner", seemed to have unloaded half of the burden on his shoulders, and his pace became very light.
Of course, the reason why his steps are so light has a lot to do with the fact that the planet has a standard gravitational acceleration of only 0.62.
During the entire family dinner, Bly waited quietly by the side;
It was not until Yang Ming discovered that Bly seemed to want to talk to him alone that he invited Bly to leave the restaurant and stroll on the floating island above the city that looked like a dense rainforest.
Looking into the distance from here, the underground metal city is divided into twelve floors, extending almost infinitely in space.
"Boss... Master."
Bly's projection sighed from the bottom of his heart: "This place is really spectacular."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "The power of mechanical civilization probably lies in this ability to multiply infinitely... Do you want to talk to me about something?"
"Yes, Master."
Bligh chose his words carefully:
"I mainly want to talk to you about your next actions. You seem to have made some decisions that make me feel very uneasy. I am worried about your personal safety."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "You're overthinking it, Bly. I have no fear of Levi Sherman, nor do I have any strong hostility towards him. What I'm most worried about is that the Fayya people will suddenly take me away, because I have seriously affected their game balance."
"Don't the Fayya people strictly follow the rules?"
"The bottom line and principles of any civilization are flexible."
Yang Ming said seriously:
"The fact that the Faya people have reached the level of a 5.5 civilization must be due to their own strengths. When they formulated the rules, they must have anticipated most of the possibilities.
“We have to acknowledge that if the threat is great enough, or the benefits are sufficient, then the Fayats can even change their rules.
"These are things we have to think about when dealing with the Fayyads."
Bly nodded, "Are you sure you want to get rid of Levi?"
"It depends."
Yang Ming leaned on the railing, looking at a group of newly appeared mechanical maids walking by not far away, and was a little curious about where these mechanical maids would be sold next.
Yang Ming said: "If the battle goes badly, I will go after him. If we can defeat the Levi fleet head-on, then I can save my worries."
"It's already difficult enough to defeat the Levi Fleet head-on," Bligh said with a strong sense of powerlessness, "However, the huge mecha of the Imperial Star is the real problem."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "That thing is indeed scary, but the warp-capable star cannon, what Dark Star lacks is actually something that can counteract it."
"What are we going to do if it comes up?" Bligh asked.
Yang Ming hesitated for a moment.
Bligh seemed to have the answer.
The master currently has no way to deal with the Empire's giant mecha.
Bly said apologetically, "Master, I'm sorry for affecting your mood."
"This is not a nuisance, it's just an objective fact."
Yang Ming smiled and said:
"When you reach the mountain, there will always be a way out. Originally, I had hoped to persuade Li to defect, because Li had suffered persecution from Levi.
"But then I saw Li and Levi's daughter, an independent mechanical thinking body, and I suddenly understood."
"What did you learn?"
"At the end of the day, Li will not betray Levi," Yang Ming said, "otherwise this little thinking body would not be born."
"All right."
"Don't worry," Yang Ming said, "The worst that can happen to us is that we can just run away. As long as I have no sense of morality, morality cannot restrain me."
"You are joking."
Bray said softly:
"You are able to restrain the Dark Star in this way, which is an extremely rare personality trait. Not to mention, you have always had great ideals and have been working hard for them."
"Okay, stop flattering me."
Yang Ming squinted and smiled.
Bray said, "There is one more thing I would like to ask for your consent."
"you say."
"I'm a super modifier, you should know that," Bly said softly, "The empire is in chaos right now. The Empire's Dimensional Upgrading Laboratory is likely to conduct a collective experiment on us in advance, and then concentrate resources within the empire. I will definitely rebel against them at that time... I'm afraid this will affect your plan."
Yang Ming looked at Bly: "Is the news reliable?"
"Reliable," Bligh said with a bitter smile, "I have done so much for the Empire, but the Empire is even going to reduce the life span promised to me in the agreement. This makes me feel extremely bad."
Yang Ming said: "Bryan, you can make your own arrangements, including declaring rebellion at any time and rushing to your old captain. I will also let the law keep an eye on you and help you out of trouble at any time."
Bligh asked, "Can I try to control some of the high-ranking officials of the empire?"
"If you can do it," Yang Ming said, "as long as your actions are for self-protection, I can fully understand."
Bray nodded solemnly, "I believe I can offer some resistance to them, Master."
Yang Ming seemed to be hesitant to speak.
He actually wanted Bligh to cooperate with his Terminator. The sudden rebellion of the Super Modifiers and the all-out attack of the Terminator could paralyze the entire upper military and political system of the Sherman Empire.
If Bly's own safety cannot be guaranteed, there is no need to force this cooperation.
"Bray," Yang Ming said, "Only if you survive can you continue to play your role."
Bly seemed somewhat touched and stood there for a while.
Yang Ming continued walking forward with his hands behind his back, admiring this newly built underground city.
Bligh bowed from a distance, and the projection gradually dissipated.
…
Sherman Empire, Imperial Star.
'Falling wind.'
Daphne, who had not slept for two consecutive galactic days, was lying in a three-meter-wide bathtub wearing a loose, water-proof nightgown.
Two maids were kneeling behind her, preparing sleep-aiding food for Daphne.
Daphne closed her eyes and tried to fall asleep, but the information in her mind was too chaotic. An invisible pressure kept turning into anxiety, making it impossible for her to fall asleep.
This feeling of anxiety came from her investigations over the past dozens of galaxies.
She found many strange things about Luo Feng.
The Luofeng Alliance suddenly became so powerful, possessing so many powerful technologies that the Empire's conventional military could not cope with, with a leap-forward drone tactics and a self-propelled planetary cannon that could not be found out where it was built...
Daphne couldn't help but make associations.
That person's ancient technology, and the technical team behind the White Ghost that had never been investigated by the Empire...
Her Hamton's attitude towards the empire suddenly changed, and she strongly stimulated the internal conflicts of the empire, even going so far as to stand against the empire.
If we put these recent major events into a timeline, everything becomes clearer.
The bombing of the White Ghost triggered internal unrest in the empire;
In order to suppress the chaos and divert the conflict, the Empire declared war on the New Federation and prepared to suck the blood of its vassal states;
The rulers of the vassal states arrived at Jinrong Star and the Jinrong Star incident occurred, and the vassal states took the opportunity to declare independence;
The Luofeng Empire declared independence and restructured. The empire was unable to spare too many troops to suppress Luofeng, and the Luofeng Alliance defeated the empire with the new technological power that had been prepared long ago...
Behind this there is a mysterious force that does not belong to the four major powers in the Milky Way. The typical operation of this force is to comprehensively guide public opinion.
How did White Ghost build his fame step by step? The answer is simple: through live streaming that cannot be shut down by the authorities.
Is there really no intrinsic connection here?
Why?
Everything is just right, everything connects so smoothly.
Daphne recalled every detail of her time with Hamton.
Sometimes she could read a lot of information in his clear eyes and feel the heavy pressure he was carrying;
But now, Daphne feels that not all the pressure on Hamton comes from the pioneers.
Maybe there is also Luofeng.
"Your Highness, you can have the medicinal food now."
"Not yet," Daphne said, "You all go out and leave me alone for a while."
"yes."
The two maids stood up slowly and left quickly.
Daphne fished out her internet access terminal from the water , randomly searched for the keywords "falling wind" and "white ghost", slowly flipped through a few pages, and her fingers suddenly froze.
White Ghost once supported Luo Feng in his fight against the New Federation. This is the earliest active record of White Ghost.
The origin of White Ghost comes from the "code name" given by the New Federation CIA. At that time, Luo Feng and the New Federation were in a continuous confrontation.
Daphne pursed her red lips tightly.
No, he is a Forerunner. The Forerunner’s appeal is to join a powerful political system and provide a shelter for the Forerunner’s home planet... The powerful Luofeng Alliance can also accomplish this mission!
The powerful technology of the Falling Wind Alliance;
White Ghost's mysterious technical team;
besides……
Daphne searched for different keyword phrases several times in a row, and bits and pieces of fragmented and illogical information penetrated her eyes and entered her mind.
Daphne stood up suddenly.
She turned around and was about to leave the bath, but she stopped just as she was about to take a step.
Daphne sat back slowly, her eyes somewhat empty . She was stunned for a long while before she took the network access terminal and cleared all the search records.
If that's true, what can we do?
What else can be changed?
Does she have direct evidence to confront him with?
Luo Feng's pursuit of independence is absolutely justified compared to what the empire has done.
Even if he was the one behind the Falling Wind Alliance, that was...
Daphne felt a little dizzy. After two days without rest, her body was already overloaded.
She suddenly wanted to avoid it all, find an empty corner, go to Saka Star, go to his mansion, sit in the garden filled with starlight, quietly wait for him to appear behind the flowers and say to her, "I'm back."
Buzz, buzz——
The sudden vibration of the entire room shattered Daphne's fantasy.
She subconsciously looked up at the ceiling, looking for the source of the vibration.
Earthquake? There will be earthquakes on the Imperial Star?
In the emperor's bedroom.
The old emperor, who was enjoying the massage service of the maid comfortably, was also awakened by the continuous vibrations.
He originally thought that it was the maids who were shaking, and was thinking about how to punish them when he heard anxious cries from the retro speakers not far away.
"Your Majesty! The Imperial Guard System has been activated!"
The old emperor sat up straight away, his eyes full of joy.
"Quick! Go to the Development Divine Religion!"
…
Dark Star Base No. 6.
"Boss! Emergency!"
Boss Yang, who had just finished taking a shower, turned his head to look at the beautiful figure on the water bed, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
What a good time!
Mimili just changed into a cute outfit that is very girly!
Yang Ming could guess what happened without asking.
"Has the logic started?"
“Yes, boss!”
Lu's voice was fast and clear:
"I simultaneously detected Li's awakening in the Imperial network and the activation of the Levi Fleet!
“What’s a little strange is that the huge mecha of Emperor Star showed signs of starting up, but it vibrated for more than 30 seconds and then stopped.
"Li has completely taken over the Imperial Network at this moment, and Labdo has been driven into a narrow corner by Li.
"At this moment, all the warships of the Sherman Empire are under reasonable dispatch!
"From the New Federation's direction, all the Empire's ships have completed synchronization and coordination. They seem to be launching a full-scale offensive against the New Federation, which is just pretending to attack!"
Yang Ming asked hurriedly: "What about outside the Luofeng border?"
"For now, no signs of the Empire increasing its troops to attack Luofeng have been detected."
Lu groaned for a few seconds:
"But... the Levi fleet is gathering in two directions, one is towards the New Federation, and the other is towards us. Twenty percent are heading towards the New Federation, and the rest are gathering towards the Luofeng border."
Yang Ming: …
Li really respects them.
No, there's something unusual here.
Yang Ming dried his body, put on a bathrobe, and thought with his head down at the bathroom door.
Mimili noticed Yang Ming's abnormality, and she hid herself under the thin blanket obediently to avoid distracting her uncle.
Yang Ming said: "Read Labdo's core data to see if there is any high-value information."
"We're already doing it. Logically, we should delete the sensitive data... Boss! Labdo's memory is intact! He actually arrived at the City of Light! So much information!"
"Make a video and send it to me!"
"It will take about twenty minutes. Some of the information needs to be decrypted!"
"Hurry up!"
Yang Ming looked at Mimili, smiled apologetically, and rushed to the closet.
"All Dark Star fleets will start simultaneously, enter the designated area, and prepare to ambush the Levi fleet!"
"yes!"
"Mimili, the Empire is about to launch a general attack. I may have to rush over first..."
"Come on, uncle!"
Mimi smiled gently:
"It would be great if you could let me be your combat assistant."
"No, no, no," Yang Ming said, "In my hometown, protecting your loved ones is the driving force behind a man's struggle."
Mimi Li said helplessly: "I don't need anyone to protect me."
"But here, that's it. I don't want you to go to the front line."
"You have extremely backward patriarchal ideas."
"Indeed, but is there a problem?"
Yang Ming, who was dressed neatly, walked to the bedside, lowered his head and twisted Mimi's smooth face, and said softly:
"Take good care of your father, and protect Emilia when necessary. The Levi Fleet has appeared, and no one knows where the war will go."
"Well, leave these to me."
Yang Ming turned around and tried to leave, but was stopped by Mimili again. They hugged and kissed each other on the bed, but the affectionate moment could only last for a minute or two.
The speed of Levi's fleet is much faster than that of the Sherman Empire's regular fleet. As the commander-in-chief, he must reach the front line as soon as possible.
More than ten minutes later, the heavy battleship that Yang Ming was on set sail again, and all the mechanical thinking bodies on the ship had returned to their positions.
This battleship is connected to the command system of the Falling Wind Alliance.
All military forces of the Luofeng Alliance have been assembled.
In addition to the necessary regional defense forces, a total of eleven self-propelled planetary guns were divided into two echelons: light and dark;
The Dark Star battleship group, which had long been prepared, began to deploy invisible tugboats at the Falling Wind Border;
The supporting forces of the Free United States and the Guell Alliance have been notified that the Sherman Empire is about to launch a general offensive. Their fleets will appear simultaneously near the border of the Falling Wind Alliance in half an hour to face the Sherman Empire together.
This is not only a battle of life and death for the Luofeng Alliance, but also the most promising battle in the past hundred years to defeat the hegemony of the Hillman Empire.
However, there is still an old problem - if the fleets of these two companies suffer too much damage, they will most likely withdraw from the battle directly and will not shed too much blood for Luo Feng.
The only thing you can truly rely on is the strength that you actually possess.
In Lu's four-dimensional space, the number of "working people" clones has increased three times compared to before, which means that Lu has activated his own computing power servers installed in all areas of the pan-galaxy.
The battleship Yang Ming was on had not yet reached the first gravitational balance zone, but Lu had already made a first-person video of the information he had obtained from Labdo and put it into Yang Ming's watch.
Lu also gave it a name.
"Little Labdo's Adventures in the City of Light".
