Chapter 889: Declaring War on External Civilizations
"Just imprison her, there's no need to kill her." Lloyd hesitated for a moment, but still pleaded for Ennius.
As one of his few remaining blood relatives, he still didn't want Ennius to die in front of him.
Li Yu had no intention of really killing Ennius. In case Lloyd died accidentally, he would have to find an heir to take his place.
There won't be any problems if we temporarily imprison this woman and let this dimension take care of her.
Lloyd heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and took the opportunity to say, "First of all, thank you for helping me rebuild the Star Empire. It's just... declaring war on the five major civilizations, isn't that a bit too reckless?"
"How about we proceed step by step and slowly accumulate some strength first."
"Your suggestion is good." Li Yu nodded first, and then said: "But now the citizens of the empire need a shot of adrenaline, and our attitude must be strong!"
Lloyd: “…”
The citizens of the Empire need a shot of adrenaline, but I don't?
Aren’t you afraid that I will commit suicide in front of you?
He was almost autistic, it would be better for him to be caught by Shane directly.
The expression on Golden Armor's face was also complicated. He really wanted to rebuild the Star Empire.
But the current situation was a bit too violent, and even his old heart couldn't bear it.
…
Fifty days after Xia En became the head of the Xingyao civilization, the situation in the country had gradually calmed down, and no matter how unwilling the citizens were, they became helpless.
Many civilizations gloated over other people's misfortune. Their level was too low. They had not yet reached the point of direct contact with external civilizations and could not feel any changes in the interstellar space at all.
On the contrary, they were very happy to watch the good show of the Star Empire.
At this moment, a depth charge suddenly exploded, instantly setting off a huge interstellar wave.
This is a video that suddenly appeared on the interstellar network.
There were only two of them, but they were both familiar faces to Star Citizen.
One is the recent celebrity Long Zun.
The other is Lloyd, the first heir of the Star Empire who has disappeared for some time.
"...Fellow citizens of the Empire, I am Lloyd, and I am the new Emperor..."
"…No oppression or injustice can break our backbone…"
The video is quite long, and most of it is nonsense that sounds exciting. Only the last sentence is the key point:
"The Star Empire is not dead yet. I hereby declare to the outside civilizations that I will restore the glory of the Star Empire and make them pay the price they deserve!"
His eyes were firm and powerful, leaving no doubt about his determination.
Li Yu then expressed his attitude: "This is my hometown, and I will never allow outside civilizations to act recklessly here!"
The speed at which this video and the various information materials that came with it spread was beyond imagination.
It revealed the truth about Shane's inheritance and labeled him a traitor to the Star Empire.
Xia En's control over the Xingyao civilization is far from enough, and the speed of banning it is very slow.
Moreover, the other civilizations just wanted to watch the fun and did not take any action, allowing it to flow.
In just a few days, this video spread throughout the galaxy, causing an uproar.
Many citizens of the Empire claimed that Lloyd was their emperor and ruler, and that Shane was just a puppet.
Countless responders!
It also requires Li Yu's reputation to soar in the Star Empire, and people to believe that he is the true "will of the empire."
As for the previous conflicts... they were just misunderstandings, don't take them too seriously.
In addition, Li Yu was essentially born in the Star Empire, so there was no obstacle for him to receive such recognition and respect.
Some middle and lower-level civilizations did not expect to see this kind of fun, and they felt terrified but also expectant.
If it was just Lloyd himself, they might think it was just a farce.
But with the addition of Dragon Lord, Lloyd's journey to "restore the country" has a bit of fantasy.
…
In the Xingyao Civilization, Xia En stared at the screen in front of him with a gloomy face, veins bulging on his hands, revealing his inner unrest.
"It's incomprehensible. Does it make sense?" Alessandro muttered beside him.
He couldn't understand what the meaning of Li Yu's sudden action was .
Rebuilding the Star Empire?
If you really have nothing to do, you can punish evil and eliminate evil. But is there any value in doing so?
To be honest, he couldn't think of it.
He glanced at Shane, who seemed very angry, and said slowly: "Don't worry, it's just a small matter, and the lower-class citizens won't remember it for too long."
"I know..." Xia En's face was tense, and he said, "But if they really want to rebuild the Star Empire, then the first step is to kill me first?"
When Alessandro heard this, he immediately said, "Don't worry, they have now declared war on the entire outside civilization."
"Plus the special nature of Dragon Lord, the outside civilization will not let them go, they are already dead."
Xia En's expression relaxed slightly, and he said as if to comfort himself: "That's right, they overestimated their own capabilities and actually declared war on the outside civilization. They don't know whether they live or die..."
"I don't know whether to live or die!"
"Li Yu, you are courting death, courting death ... You will not survive."
Alessandro looked at Shane's increasingly ferocious expression with an indifferent look.
…
On the other side, the leaders of several major civilizations were having a meeting. The Protoss lifeform glanced at an empty seat and said, "Why is Hanado not here again? What on earth is he doing?"
"I haven't shown up for several regular meetings ."
Barosa said nonchalantly: "Who knows? Maybe Civilization Zero issued him a special order."
"Under normal circumstances, this place should belong to the spoils of Civilization Zero."
"They must know something that we don't."
Upon hearing this, Saphill's eyes flickered over some thoughts, but he did not think deeply about it. He said, "The repair of the rule decoupling device is almost complete. The construction project can start again."
"It's finally fixed. It was too troublesome to fix this thing." Barosa shook his head.
"How dare you say that? If you hadn't lost control of your strength and accidentally damaged the specification decoupling device, the link channel would have been repaired by now." Saphill glared at Barossa.
"Who knew those three guys had some abilities? It was just an accident." Barossa still had that indifferent look on his face.
Saphill frowned, but he knew that this guy would not listen, so it was useless to say more, so he simply said: "During this period of time, I discovered a strange thing in this interstellar space."
"They have an organization called the A-level Alliance, which recruits high-level life forms that have never reached our level."
"And the life forms added to it can actually gain a certain degree of bonus in terms of evolution, thereby improving the efficiency of evolution."
Barosa was a little surprised and asked, "There is such a thing? What kind of technology is used?"
"That's the strange thing. There is no need for any assistance. You just need to fill out an application form. Even our people can join in and enjoy this bonus." said Sapshire.
In fact, he hadn't said anything else. Even he could feel the bonus, it was just very subtle.
"It's just that my own energy is out of my control. There are some flaws or constraints."
"Oh? At least it's at the information state level. Which civilization is behind it?" Barosa pondered.
"The person behind it is... Li Yu, also known as Long Zun." Sapshire said hesitantly.
"This guy again?" Barosa said unhappily, "Just disband it."
"The top leaders are not inclined to do this..." Saphill shook his head. "This phenomenon is very strange. The top leaders want to find the root cause. This is very beneficial for mass production of main combat forces."
"So, the top management asked us not to interfere with this organization, and not to even remove Long Zun from his position as the president."
"Wait until they send someone over to conduct a thorough study."
"Hmph..." Barossa snorted coldly, but didn't say anything.
The so-called high-level decision must also have Droyedal's opinion.
This is normal. After all, what kind of threat can an A-level alliance pose?
The position of the president is just a nominal one. It doesn’t matter that Long Zun doesn’t even dare to show up now.
As they were discussing the next action plan, their smart terminals rang at the same time, receiving reports from their subordinates.
The four of them took a glance and had different expressions. Barosa's reaction was the most intense. He stood up suddenly and shouted coldly:
"Damn it! How dare they declare war on us? I'm so tired of living!"
"I'm going to kill him!"
The others were already immune to this kind of reckless speech. Saphill shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the main force hasn't come in yet. The information shadow irradiation, time reversal device...all kinds of delicate equipment are gone."
"It's impossible to find their trace. Besides, it's just a few declarations. Why take it to heart?"
"Compared to these declarations, I am more curious about his purpose. I don't think your people have figured out any clues."
The others nodded, and only Barosa laughed again: "Anyway, since he did this, it's impossible for him to just make a few declarations. No matter what, there should be corresponding actions. Otherwise, it would be a waste of time."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's faces changed drastically, and a sense of horror rose up through their bodies. They always felt that Dragon Lord would come in the next moment and kill them all.
Only Barossa was not afraid and was even eager to try.
"I don't think so ..." Saphill laughed dryly: "This won't do him any good."
…
[Conditions are being matched, the subject is selected as the Star Empire, the enemy is selected as the outside civilization... The item has been used successfully...]
[External variables are being integrated...both sides are comparing their strengths...]
[Beep! The gap between the enemy and us is too big, a phased task is generated...]
[Phase One - The Revival of the Star Empire: The Emperor's throne was occupied by traitors and the name of the Empire was erased.
Request: Restore the name of the Star Empire and let the emperor return to the position he deserves.
Reward: Depends on the specific actions and impacts. 】
Phased tasks?
Li Yu was a little surprised. He didn't expect such a change to happen.
It seems that the hostility he created caused the system to judge that the gap was "too big".
The reason why he went to such lengths to find Lloyd was just for this [Counterattack] item.
[Special Mission - Counterattack: Launch a counterattack against the enemy forces and obtain rewards based on the final evaluation. The comprehensive evaluation is determined by the degree of damage to the forces before the war, the gap in strength between the enemy and us, the duration of the war, and the results of the battle.]
There are many settlement requirements. In order to do his best, Li Yu can only plan every aspect to the extreme.
He originally wanted to use his own alien-dimensional camp as a prop carrier to declare war on the outside civilization.
But after thinking about it, he realized that he had not suffered any losses in the battle with the outside civilization, and was instead the gainer.
It obviously does not meet one of the conditions - "the degree of damage beforehand". If there was no damage beforehand, it is not a counterattack at all, it can only be called an attack.
So he set his sights on the Star Empire.
They were almost destroyed by outside civilizations, and their names were changed, so they obviously meet the requirements.
In order to allow the Star Empire to be used as a prop carrier, he also asked Lloyd to write a fake appointment letter, making him the "Regent", which complied with the system requirements in terms of process.
At the last moment, he chose "outside civilization" as the target of his declaration of war. After all, they had formed a great cosmic alliance, so they could be regarded as a whole.
The Xingyao Empire, which currently has only four people, is fighting against the entire outside civilization. It is directly judged that "the gap is too large" and even generates a phased task.
"This first step is simple. Just kill Xia En. It should be done with some more effort." Li Yu pondered.
Lloyd, who had been so powerful before, now sat in a corner, wondering what kind of torture he would suffer if he fell into Shane's hands.
…
At the same time, somewhere in a star field, Hanado was carefully pulling black particle streams from the void.
The violent void storms filled the surroundings, but they had little effect on him.
Soon, the black particles gradually condensed into an irregular black fragment in his hand, exuding a glass-like texture.
He still didn't relax at all and carefully dragged it into a light golden metal box.
After everything was completed, he breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "There are still three pieces... The prophet was right. The remaining fragments are indeed all in this interstellar space."
After finishing these tasks, he took a look at his smart terminal. There were many unread messages. After taking a general look, he had no interest in what had happened recently.
Take out an instrument similar to a compass and head in the specified direction.
