Chapter 565: Explosive Weapons
Time passed, and before long, they returned to Guixing and the interstellar network area automatically switched.
Now, everyone in Guixing is praising Klein, believing that this queen has brought them brilliant glory.
This is also related to the crazy additions made by various media organizations.
This trend of public opinion is more directly reflected in the Outline of Tarkinism, with the approval rate exceeding 60%. Although this is surprising, it is still within Li Yu's expectations.
Only one weapon is unlocked, not three. Perhaps 50% of the weapons unlocked in the future will not be three.
But this one is very powerful.
[World Destroyer - A massive super weapon with a powerful tractor beam that can wreak havoc on planets.
The Destroyer's primary mode of use is to land on a planet's surface and use its powerful tractor beam to tear the planet apart beneath it, thus becoming a "planet killer".
The torn planetary matter will be used as fuel for the World Destroyer to produce various war machines. If there are enough resources, it can produce anything. 】
In short, this is an integrated weapons production line, and its destructive power is also star-destroying, which is one of the things that Li Yu lacks now.
For surface combat, he can use a legion of mechanical aliens, but interstellar combat is more troublesome.
The battleship production line is extremely complex and cumbersome. Even using [Reality Gems] to construct it will take a lot of time, and some core materials may not even be materialized.
However, this [World Destroyer] makes up for this shortcoming. All you need to do is invest resources and energy into it.
And if the dimensional engine is completed, there will basically be no shortage of energy.
As for resources, Li Yu now uses [Reality Gems] to make high-precision alloys when he is free, so he is not too short of them.
It not only consumes physical energy but also serves as a form of exercise, killing two birds with one stone.
However, the alloy required by [World Destroyer] is also at the trillion-ton level.
The alloy made by Li Yu himself was not very good enough.
"It seems that I have no choice but to trouble Klein..." Li Yu muttered.
…
After arriving at the Guixing Star, we quickly returned to the central galaxy with the help of the star gate.
He was greeted by his old acquaintances, the two brothers Max and Edwin.
"Boss, I won't be able to greet you soon." Max said bitterly.
"...That's great..." Li Yu smiled and said, "Which fleet does your father decide to send you to?"
"It's not my father, it's the Queen..." Max said with a chuckle, "It's all thanks to you, Boss. The Queen said that she will let both of us become galaxy governors soon."
"As galaxy governors under the age of thirty, we two have made history in returning to our star."
"Oh?" Li Yu was a little surprised: "You? Galaxy Archon? No one objects?"
"Who dares to object? You don't know that the Queen has replaced thirty-six galaxy governors during this period of time." Max whispered:
"The Queen's own direct descendants were not enough, so she thought of us two."
"So cruel?" Li Yu's eyes flickered. He just discussed with Klein and asked Guixing's official media channels to cooperate in promoting the achievements against the Abyss Research Institute.
I didn’t expect Klein to make such a big move afterwards.
"Very cruel... ahem..." Max didn't finish his words. He looked around guiltily and said, "None of those galaxy governors are good people. There are more than 20 of them who keep female slaves."
"There are also those who accept bribes from the Chamber of Commerce and offer preferential tax policies and mineral mining rights. This is no different from selling out the interests of civilization."
Li Yu shook his head and didn't pay much attention to these charges. Since ancient times, there were very few high-ranking officials who were removed from office because of real charges. Basically, they had fallen from grace.
It seems that Klein is really ruthless and has found the right time. The entire Guixing is now praising Klein.
It's normal for galactic archons to take advantage of this momentum to deal with crimes, but there are too many of them.
Edwin added: "There shouldn't be any more. My father said that the number has reached the limit. If we put too much pressure on those people, they might resist."
"Yeah." Li Yu nodded: "Klein should know the answer."
A few people talked and laughed, and passed through layers of transfer procedures and arrived in front of the Nova Palace.
The reconstruction of the entire central system has been completed, and basically only the finishing work of the outer space station remains.
It has basically regained its former prosperity, with anti-gravity flying vehicles shuttling back and forth in the sky, like steel rivers hanging diagonally in the air.
After seeing Li Yu, this decisive queen showed a rare look of fatigue on her delicate face.
She became increasingly majestic, like a queen, and sat opposite Li Yu.
"You look very tired." Li Yu leaned over and asked with concern.
The two hadn't seen each other for a while, and Klein was a little uncomfortable. She subconsciously shrank back, but then straightened her chest. It was obvious that her queen mentality would not allow her to retreat.
"What's wrong? Why are you so awkward?" Li Yu found it so funny that he couldn't help but flick a ball of electric arc, splashing it onto Klein's ear.
The tingling sensation instantly spread throughout his body. Klein's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but say, "Your Excellency the Duke is becoming more and more daring."
"After I've done something great, you still allow me to brag about it?" Li Yu said with a smile.
"Are you showing off? I'm exhausted. I've replaced thirty-six galaxy archons in a row. There's people chattering in my ears all day long. I'm so annoyed..." Klein said unhappily.
"Then I'll help you chop them down."
"Don't make trouble. Guixing has just been peaceful for a short time. I don't want to face the rebels from all over the place."
The two talked for a while, and Klein's unfamiliarity with Li Yu disappeared.
"I need to trouble you with something. Can you give me trillions of tons of military-grade alloy?" Li Yu said.
“Trillion tons?” Klein paused. “You’ve really given me a difficult problem.”
She lightly lifted her fingers, and an invisible force seemed to lift Li Yu's chin, trying to lift it up.
After being the queen for a long time, she inexplicably developed some strange habits.
“Stop it…” Li Yu was speechless, his eyes flickered slightly, and Klein felt an irresistible force pushing him back.
“Heh…” Klein said with a tight mouth: “I understand. I’ll give the order and you can go to the logistics department to make the transfer yourself.”
"Okay." Li Yu turned and left.
“Are you leaving now?” Klein couldn’t help but shout.
The next moment, looking at Li Yu's smiling eyes, he realized that he was framed, and immediately glared at Li Yu fiercely.
"The queen style really doesn't suit you. You're more comfortable this way." Li Yu strode over, picked up Klein, and walked straight into the bedroom.
Half a day later, Li Yu came out of the Xinxing Palace, muttering to himself:
"You can only get resources , alas..."
The soldiers on both sides turned a deaf ear and pretended not to hear or see anything.
However, compared to the last time when I had to work hard to collect alloys, this time was much easier.
Li Yu also knew the location of the Logistics Department, so he went there leisurely.
…
"Your Excellency the Duke, the alloy reserves in the central star system are insufficient right now, but we have issued an order and the reserves from other star systems are being sent over as fast as possible, and they will be available soon."
The head of the logistics department was a fat man, a hybrid of a Returned Star person and an Interstellar human. He was relatively short in stature and spoke to Li Yu with sweat all over his forehead.
He didn't dare to offend this old man. Originally, this part of the alloy was intended to be used for the budget of the interstellar fortress, but Klein directly allocated it to Li Yu.
Li Yu was sitting opposite drinking, the purple-red liquid flowed down his throat and erupted with fire and thunder in his stomach.
This completely different feeling made his eyes light up slightly. Damn, these corrupt elements really know how to enjoy themselves.
Then, he shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, just ask them to do it as soon as possible, give me the storage first, I'll use it first."
"Okay... okay..." The logistics manager stood up and said, "Come with me, I'll take you to the storage warehouse."
Large-scale, assembly-line resources such as military-grade alloys are basically stored in compressed space.
More precious resources will not be stored in compressed space, although compressed space basically does not cause problems nowadays.
But if something goes wrong, the resources will be gone.
The two men walked out of the logistics department and were going downstairs when they heard shouting from the other end.
"Bart, what do you want to do!?"
"It's bad enough that you're blocking my promotion request, but now you're not even giving me resources?"
"In the entire talent support and training department, I have completed the most tasks, but you don't give me anything. What on earth do you want to do!?"
“…”
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. My office and the talent support department are on the same floor. There must be a conflict among the people who received the resources." He said with a smile.
Bart? Could it be that old man?
Li Yu thought for a moment and said, "Let's go and have a look."
Although the logistics manager didn't know what was going on, he didn't refuse and followed immediately.
After turning the corner, a white-haired old man was holding a long metal knife and confronting several staff members with a surging breath.
"Mr. Bart?" Li Yu shouted with his eyes moving slightly.
The figure paused slightly, turned around with a little caution, and after seeing Li Yu's face clearly, his pupils contracted and he couldn't help but said: "Li Yu...Duke!?"
"It's really you. I thought I had made a mistake." Li Yu grinned.
This person is an old acquaintance and a veteran in the talent support and training program.
There had been some friction and fighting with Li Yu before, but the other party was also generous and admitted defeat cleanly and neatly.
Moreover, this old man is loyal to Guixing. The initial friction was because he thought Li Yu was a scoundrel who would not devote his heart and soul .
Later, they carried out an operation together to protect the mermaid princess, and they could be considered comrades-in-arms.
"Your Excellency the Duke!?" It was impossible for the other people not to know Li Yu. They were a little frightened and hurriedly saluted.
"Long time no see...old man." Li Yu ignored them and sighed. He seemed to feel that the old man seemed a little hunched.
Barter pursed his lips, a complex emotion flashed across his old face, and he said slowly, "Long time no see, Your Excellency the Duke."
"Don't be so polite. We are old acquaintances. Just call me Li Yu." Li Yu waved his hand, looked around, and asked in confusion, "Why are you still a B-level life form? I remember that you should have been promoted to A-level soon."
"This matter..." Bart hesitated for a moment and said, "Something unexpected happened."
Li Yu looked at the situation at the scene and knew that something must have happened, but Bart seemed unwilling to say it, so he would not take the initiative to ask.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Let's talk another day. I have something else to do here."
Seeing that Li Yu was about to leave, Bart's slightly cloudy eyes flashed with a hint of determination, and he shouted: "Li Yu..."
"Huh?" Li Yu turned around and looked at Bart in confusion.
"Your Excellency the Duke...can you help me?" Bart seemed to have exhausted all his strength to say this.
The people who competed on the same stage have become famous figures, while he is still wasting his time in Class B. This makes the old man feel somewhat sad.
The rest of the staff looked at each other, and the head of the talent support and training department seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Li Yu's eyes flickered and he asked, "What happened?"
"It's... like this..." Bart took a deep breath and said slowly: "..."
After a moment, Li Yu looked strange and said to himself, "It's actually... like this..."
This matter is actually not complicated. The root cause comes from the fact that Barthes once spoke rudely to Klein, who was still a relatively mentally retarded girl at the time.
He didn't care about some of the things Klein did that damaged Guixing's interests, and this was partly the reason for the friction between him and Li Yu.
Later, when Klein became the empress and her prestige grew, what he had said seemed not so good.
This also resulted in his A-level promotion request being interrupted many times, and he is still only a B-level life form.
It has even gotten worse, and now they are trying to deny him the required resources and not let him collect them.
"I... I just..." Bart hesitated and couldn't speak. He wanted to say that he could apologize.
But why does Klein need his apology now?
"Would Klein be so stingy?" Li Yu thought for a moment and said:
"It should be these people who acted on their own. You are loyal to the Guixing Center. When you were protecting the mermaid princess, you were not afraid of the A-level lifeforms."
"And some of the things Klein did at the time were really not right."
The head of the logistics department next to him changed his expression slightly, and immediately pretended not to hear anything.
As for the person in charge of the Talent Support and Training Association, his face turned pale and he was shaky.
Bart was pale and had a hunched body. When he heard Li Yu's words, his eyes even turned red.
He was not afraid of fighting or death, but he hated the feeling of being powerless in the internal struggle.
He had already accepted this reality, but he didn't expect to meet Li Yu when collecting resources.
"It's not a difficult task. By the way, Klein is in need of people. I'll just recommend you to her." Li Yu thought about it and said half-jokingly and half-seriously:
"It's just that I wasted so much time. You don't have any complaints about Klein, do you?"
"How is it possible? Since Her Majesty ascended the throne, all kinds of chaos have occurred one after another, but she has been able to deal with them calmly. Recently, she even sent you to defeat the Abyss Research Institute. I am so happy!"
Bart said hurriedly, a little excited: "Even if I can't be promoted to an A-level life form in this life, I will not resent the Queen!"
Bart is actually a representative figure of the older generation of returning citizens, and his sense of belonging to civilization is even stronger.
Li Yu could clearly sense the other person's emotions through the Force. After confirming that he was not lying, he smiled and said, "I just said it casually. Why do you take it so seriously?"
Then, he looked at the person in charge and asked, "Who will be promoted to A-level next?"
The other party lowered his head and said carefully: "It's Orsa, he is General Sinel's son..."
"Cut in line?"
"Yes..." He didn't dare to hide it.
"Let him postpone it and let Bart be promoted first. He has been waiting for a long time." Li Yu paused and said, "If anyone is not satisfied, let him come to me."
"Do you understand?"
"I understand, I understand..." He nodded hurriedly.
Tsk tsk... Klein, I recruited another subordinate for you, and just now I asked you to do it for me but you were unwilling. All my efforts were in vain.
Li Yu shook his head secretly.
