Chapter 521: The empire is secretly moving, Loren is coming!
"As expected, it reached 40%..."
Just one day after the announcement was made, Li Yu took a look at the [Outline of Tarkinism] and found that the fourth chapter had been unlocked.
【Affiliation——Guixing
Ruler - Queen Klein
Approval — 41%
Unlocked Chapter 1——……
…
Chapter 4 has been unlocked——
[Nullification Cannon: It works by firing energy blasts, radiating an energy field that can paralyze enemy technological equipment. ]
[Vibration Drum: Produces strong ultrasonic vibrations that become stronger over time, causing massive earthquakes and destruction, and even destabilizing the core of a planet and causing it to break apart.]
[Planet Prison: Pressurizes the planet's upper atmosphere with an ion pulse, turning the entire atmosphere into a giant ion cannon. Any ship that attempts to enter the atmosphere, whether leaving or attempting to land, will be immediately paralyzed.]
】
Li Yu nodded with satisfaction. In this way, he could add a few weapons and strengthen those Transformers that had not been blessed with weapons.
Ordinary citizens have no idea about the truth of this mediation, and only some relatively prominent interstellar organizations have some understanding of the truth.
However, under the intimidation of the Star Empire, there was not much opposition even in the interstellar public opinion.
According to the latest data released by several polling organizations in Guixing , in the past few months since Klein took office, her support rate has basically been on an upward trend.
It's already at 45%, so clearly their polls are not accurate.
But even so, looking at the stages of regime change in Guixing, such situations are extremely rare.
The new ruler may not be able to completely control Guixing within a few months, let alone spend several years to do so.
Some were even more miserable, having to fight insurgents for decades after coming to power.
And Klein did it in just a few months.
Some organizations have made careful analysis based on the nodes at which support rates fluctuate.
The discoveries were the coronation ceremony, the reprimand of the Morton civilization for rebellion, the rapid suppression of the rebellion in the southern territory, and the negotiations with Parliament.
In the eyes of some insiders, all of this is closely related to one person, that is -
Li Yu!
Public opinion is in an uproar. Klein's approval rating has reached a certain level, and it is basically impossible to increase it quickly in the future.
The rest are either old guys with stubborn ideas or people who are indifferent to politics.
"The genetic structure should be almost stable. It's time to use the genetic optimization device to strengthen it."
Li Yu took out the gene optimization device and then lay down in it. He was already familiar with this thing.
As the machine started running, a wave of pain swept over him, but compared to the pain caused by the fusion of the gene chains, this feeling was nothing to Li Yu.
The genetic optimization process was quickly completed, and he could feel a significant increase in strength, but it was far less than he had expected.
"Is this because there are not many defects in the God's gene chain?" Li Yu guessed in a low voice. At the same time, he turned on the gene detection device and found that the development progress had reached about 3%.
"It seems that the difficulty of developing this gene chain is far beyond my expectations." Li Yu shook his head and put away the gene optimization device again.
…
At the same time, in the secret meeting room of the Star Empire, the eight people who controlled the operation of the Star Empire gathered together again.
"The stuff has finally been delivered to the parliament. Although there have been some twists and turns, the result is always good." Talrama smiled. Her beautiful appearance has surpassed the conventional aesthetic category.
"It's hard to say. We are too impatient. This should make the parliament alert." Morgan shook his head. The Star Empire's eagerness to mediate has already caused many forces to have doubts.
Even if they claim that they don't want the "war to expand", it is not enough to dispel their speculation.
"It doesn't matter. That's a replica we made with great effort. They can't see any problems. It fits perfectly with the round table..." Mozambique said softly:
“Even if they can hold it back for now, as time goes by, it will eventually become part of the Round Table.”
"That's right. We didn't use any destructive means. We just designated a master for him in advance." Another old man agreed.
Everyone's faces looked quite relaxed. They could tolerate a delicious cake being placed there for a while, but not forever.
"I just wanted to take this opportunity to exchange those captives of the Loren family, but I didn't expect Guixing to not give me the chance at all." Morgan's tone was inexplicable, as if he was expressing regret, but also as if he was gloating.
Tallama added: "They should have noticed something unusual, but this matter is completely harmless to them. They don't mind cooperating, and we can also gain reputation."
"If you want to take advantage of this incident to gain more benefits, it's obviously wishful thinking."
Loren, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up: "Don't worry, I'm from my family, I will figure it out myself."
"Alright..." The emperor at the top said, "Notify [ ] and mobilize the forces hidden in the parliament. The thirteenth member should appear."
"Understood..." The seven people responded with a stern look on their faces.
Then, the Emperor looked at Morgan and asked, "How is the research on Dark Star going? How did he unleash an attack comparable to that of a super life form?"
When talking about this topic, Morgan's expression was also very interesting: "We have studied him carefully. To be honest, he is just a life form with more ideas."
"We didn't find any strange powers in his body, and about a year ago, he spent a huge amount of money to carve prevention and control measures on his spiritual body, so we can't use mind control methods on him."
"Why?"
"According to him, it was to deal with Li Yu."
"No other theories?"
The emperor said impatiently that he didn't want to hear these stories, he just wanted to know the results.
Morgan thought for a moment and said, "Yes, according to my junior, Anxing once told him that he could only unleash such a powerful force when dealing with Li Yu."
"However, we used the information state detection device and did not detect any entangled information states near his body. There should be no influence from anything at the level of a Titan artifact."
"Continue investigating..." The emperor gave instructions and Mogan nodded.
"How's the investigation of the alien camp going?" he asked.
"Except for things related to Li Yu, there is no other information." Loren responded. He was responsible for matters related to Li Yu and the alien dimension camp.
There wasn't much good news, which made the Emperor unhappy. "Find out, a powerful organization is about to surface, and I need to know everything about it !"
"Especially when the other party might be an enemy!"
"Yes!" Loren nodded.
The Emperor looked around and said in a low voice: "The exploration of the Fourteenth Temple is at a critical moment. I don't want any unexpected situations!"
…
While the Star Empire was discussing the Throne of God, the parliament also welcomed the rare gathering of twelve members.
In the magnificent palace, twelve parliamentarians in various appearances sat in their seats, their eyes fixed on the throne in the center.
"The Thirteenth Throne of God, so this is the reason why you attacked Guixing in secret..." The Forging God Craftsman spoke first, with too much uncertainty in his tone:
"I have never heard of the Thirteenth Throne before."
There was silence in the palace and no one responded to his words.
The Forging Master didn't care and looked around and said:
"The Round Table has responded to it, so the question is, do you guys want to accept it?"
The so-called round table is not a physical table, but an energy field formed by the thrones of twelve gods.
In this energy field, the twelve senators can exert all the power of the Throne of God.
"Accept!" Nightmare Knight uttered two words, and then immediately said: "The Thirteenth Throne of God can expand the power of the Round Table again, and our sphere of influence can also be extended."
"No!" someone refused. It was a deep male voice, like a giant interstellar human with muscular body. From time to time, the sound of fighting on the battlefield could be heard from the killing light behind him.
"We are still unsure of the authenticity of the Thirteenth God's Throne. If we accept it blindly, it may bring bad consequences."
Another councillor agreed, "That's right. You guys are so secretive. You didn't even tell us about the 13th throne. It's impossible for us to accept the 13th throne before we understand it clearly."
Sun remained silent. They didn't want other people to know about this matter, but in the end it became such a big deal.
In addition, the Star Empire deliberately spread the news, causing other congressmen to gradually find out.
Even if they wanted to keep it secret, it would be impossible.
"Destiny, what do you say?" The Forge Master did not comment, but instead looked towards another seat.
There is only a hazy nebula, ever-changing.
"My suggestion is to put it on hold for now..." An ethereal voice came from inside: "The thread of fate has been fluctuating abnormally recently. According to the model analysis, this is a precursor to the start of the war between gods."
"Since everyone cannot reach a consensus, let's wait and see. Perhaps a few people will get down from their seats, and then some different opinions will emerge."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became strange.
The war between gods is a taboo topic in parliament.
Everyone present rose to power through the war of gods, but they also fear the war of gods.
"Everyone, I hope to see you again after this war of gods." The God of War stood up. He didn't seem worried because his duty was war.
The war between gods is not too dangerous for him.
"It's not like there haven't been senators who have held the power over war who have fallen before." Nightmare Knight glanced at him, his tone dark.
"Then let's fight!" The God of War was in high spirits and didn't care at all.
He was the newly ascended god in the last war of gods, and he had a deep understanding of how much benefit the war had brought to him.
"Alas, it's time for the old man to hide again." The master forger shook his head and left with a sigh.
Many congressmen disappeared, and the empty hall became silent again.
Only the thirteenth throne of God stands here quietly.
…
Shortly after the announcement was released, Li Yu welcomed a guest.
"Ambassador, long time no see." Li Yu's attitude was gentle and neither cold nor hot. The person who came to visit him was the ambassador of the Star Empire.
"Your Excellency the Duke..." The ambassador's attitude was much more enthusiastic than Li Yu's, and the smile on his face was not even very formal.
"The main purpose of my visit this time is to discuss the exchange of prisoners."
Li Yu nodded. This purpose was not beyond his expectations.
The ambassador continued: "I would like to ask you why you refuse to exchange prisoners?"
Yes, the Xingyao Empire started the prisoner exchange procedure not long ago , but Guixing encountered trouble with Li Yu because Li Yu refused to exchange prisoners, resulting in the inability to start the negotiation process.
"We can give you a very suitable price..."
"Needless to say, I will not exchange prisoners for the time being." Li Yu directly refused, which made the ambassador restrain his smile, but still patiently asked: "Can you tell me the specific reason?"
Li Yu said casually: "I am particularly curious about the nobles of the Xingyao Empire. Now that I have the experimental subjects, I must study them carefully. When the research is completed, I will send them to you."
This sentence made the ambassador's face darken. Can you just say "study the prisoners" directly?
Of course, this is not the only reason why Li Yu was unwilling to exchange prisoners.
He also wanted to use the two guys from the Loren family to deal with the worst case scenario, that is, the relationship between Moduo and him was discovered and then he was arrested.
Can't two advanced life forms from the Loren family replace one Modo?
It's impossible that the Star Empire couldn't figure out this account, right?
"You should know that this is basically impossible." The ambassador advised: "We can offer a generous price."
"A generous price?" Li Yu looked the ambassador up and down and said, "A Titan artifact?"
The ambassador's face suddenly froze, and he snorted, "Your Excellency the Duke, the genes of the nobles all carry special gene locks, you are just wasting your efforts!"
"Then there's no need to bother, Your Excellency the Ambassador." Li Yu responded lazily.
"Just tell me what you want to exchange." A man walked out from the guards behind the ambassador, took off his helmet, and revealed an indifferent face. Only his eyes were slightly lively.
"oh?"
Li Yu's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the person in front of him curiously. He didn't seem to be anything special, but his mental fluctuations made Li Yu feel a little strange.
"Your Excellency?"
"I used to have a name, but now I don't. You can call me-Loren."
Li Yu's expression changed slightly when he heard this. He is no longer the young and naive guy he used to be.
I also got to know a little about the nobles of the Star Empire.
The controller of the seven noble clans represents the nobility itself.
After becoming the head of the family, their names will be automatically erased and replaced by the names of the nobles.
Loren is the current controller of the Loren family.
Subconsciously, Li Yu wanted to call for help and quickly catch this big fat fish.
However, he then thought that this guy would not be stupid enough to show up in person. He should be using some special ability to remotely control the body of the person in front of him.
