Chapter 530: The Prometheus Race (Part 2)

The Engineer was relatively tall, about half a head taller than Ye Nan. In front of him, Ye Nan looked like a dwarf. However, the height did not affect Ye Nan's momentum. In terms of momentum, the Engineer, who looked relatively kind, was actually suppressed by Ye Nan.

Ye Nan's every move naturally carried a hint of composure and a hint of oppression, while the taller Engineer, because of his personality, changed color slightly under Ye Nan's oppression.

"Although you are the Emperor now, you won't be for long." Feeling Ye Nan's momentum, the Engineer felt uncomfortable, like a rebellious child overpowering an adult, making him feel a hint of displeasure in his heart.

In the Engineer's eyes, humans were his children, and he was the father of humans. He cherished humans and protected humans. Similarly, humans must also respect him and treat him as a father. This was the premise.

A child overpowering a father in momentum made the Engineer feel very uncomfortable. However, reason told him that the humans here were not the humans he had created.

"Indeed." Ye Nan smiled slightly.

The Space-Time Empire merging into the Human Federation naturally prioritized the Human Federation in terms of social system, so he, the Emperor, would naturally step down. However, the upper echelons of the Human Federation had already been controlled by officials of the Space-Time Empire, so he could restore his rule at any time.

If he weren't afraid that the way he ate would be too ugly, he could have restored his rule the moment the Space-Time Empire integrated into the Human Federation. It was just that doing so would be equivalent to slapping the Pan-Galactic Alliance in the face, thoroughly exploiting the loopholes in the rules, and it would be the kind that was open and honest, showing off everywhere.

People who put unspoken rules on the table never had a good ending.

"Aren't you going to take me to see the supreme ruler of this civilization?" The Engineer said. He was no longer willing to be with Ye Nan; the pressure Ye Nan gave him was simply too great.

He didn't know Ye Nan's true strength, but in his feeling, Ye Nan was dangerous, very dangerous, dangerous to the point where he couldn't resist at all. This feeling made him uncomfortable and gave him an urge to provoke, but he was rational. He knew that this behavior would bring him trouble or even death, so he suppressed his impulse. However, even so, this impulse still affected him.

Getting into a hover car, he flew to the Golden Angel Building in a flash. Councilor Kairisi had already been waiting there for the envoy of the Pan-Galactic Alliance for a long time.

"This is the supreme leader of the Human Federation, Councilor Kairisi." Ye Nan introduced both sides, "This is the Engineer from the 'Heaven' planet of the Pan-Galactic Alliance. He came to investigate whether there was any coercion or control of the supreme leader during the merger of the two civilizations, that is, whether the merger of the two civilizations was illegal."

Ye Nan bit down particularly hard on the three words "illegal."

"Hello, I am the Engineer." The Engineer extended his glowing right hand and shook hands with Councilor Kairisi. After shaking for a full minute, the Engineer then said, "Very good, your genes show no signs of forgery. There are also no obvious viruses in your body that can control the brain and nerves."

Hearing this, Councilor Kairisi's mouth twitched a few times. He was indeed himself, and he hadn't taken any poison. But he was truly being coerced.

"For the sake of the continuation of the Human Federation's civilization, I will not surrender just like this." Councilor Kairisi roared frantically in his heart. He made up his mind that even if he died, he could not be a sinner of the Federation.

"May I ask, do you agree to the Space-Time Empire joining the Federation?" The Engineer's expression became serious, and he began to inquire.

"I do not agree. They coerced me. Our government officials are all people from the Space-Time Empire. They have already controlled the Human Federation. They also..."

A series of words poured out of Councilor Kairisi's mouth at a rapid speed. This speed was three to six times the speed of an ordinary person speaking, yet every word was very clear.

"It looks like he has already rehearsed many times." Ye Nan thought to himself. Being able to speak so clearly at this speed, if Councilor Kairisi hadn't rehearsed, he wouldn't believe it even if he were beaten to death.

As for the words unfavorable to him in his mouth, before making arrangements, Ye Nan might have panicked, but now, he looked at Councilor Kairisi as if looking at a clown.

"In short, his goal is to annex our Human Federation." Councilor Kairisi finished speaking at a rapid speed. After speaking, he glared fiercely at Ye Nan, the hatred in his eyes undisguised.

He was full of ambition and played with means, but there was one point: he would not betray the Federation. He was resolutely hostile to anyone who had the ambition to annex the Federation.

"Is there such a thing?" The Engineer turned his head, hoping Ye Nan would give him an explanation.

"I don't know anything about what he said." Ye Nan shrugged, expressing his helplessness, "In fact, it was I who requested to integrate the Space-Time Empire into the Human Federation. It is the Human Federation that benefits, and it is the Space-Time Empire that suffers losses."

It was like a person handing over their money to someone else before they died. If that person accepted it, it was appropriate; if they refused, it was a foolish act, an act that didn't conform to logic.

"What kind of Space-Time Empire suffering losses? You are just playing the trick of replacing a civet cat with a prince. Who doesn't know that the government high-ups have all been controlled by you? All the grassroots officials, as well as the mid-level and high-level ones, are your people." Councilor Kairisi sneered at Ye Nan's words. Thinking he had found a backer, he no longer hid himself. He wanted to take Ye Nan to court and let the fair Galactic Court judge him. He believed that the Galactic Court would definitely give him a fair verdict.

"Is that so?" The Engineer asked Ye Nan.

"So what if it is, so what if it isn't? Could it be that you, Engineer, still want to interfere in the internal affairs of the Human Federation?" Ye Nan looked at the Engineer with a smile that was not a smile, without a hint of fear in his eyes.

The Pan-Galactic Alliance had a rule that no civilization was allowed to attack another civilization, nor was it allowed to interfere in another civilization. However, the merger of two civilizations was not included in this.

This rule was originally intended for the civilizations that formulated the rules to exploit loopholes, but now it was taken by Ye Nan to devour the Human Federation.

Admittedly, his letting officials of the Space-Time Empire manage the people of the Human Federation was interfering in the internal affairs of the Human Federation and offending the Human Federation, but these all had a condition: that the Human Federation and the Space-Time Empire were two civilizations.

But in reality, when Councilor Kairisi declared the merger of the two civilizations, the Space-Time Empire had already become one with the Human Federation. Officials of the Space-Time Empire managing the people of the Human Federation was actually a very normal transfer. No civilization had the right to use this to say he was interfering in another civilization.

"Internal affairs?" The Engineer was stunned, then understood, and couldn't help but feel a bit uncomfortable.

He came to verify whether the merger of the two civilizations involved illegal acts, and the transfer of officials within the civilization was not within his scope of verification. Even if it were him, he had no right to interfere in the changes within the Human Federation.

At the same time, he also understood that this was Ye Nan playing a positive plot, exploiting loopholes in the rules. But you know it's like this, yet you have no way to stop it.

Councilor Kairisi, who didn't understand this point, clamored at Ye Nan: "You dare to despise the Pan-Galactic Alliance?"

"I wouldn't dare." Ye Nan sneered. As long as he didn't abuse and control Councilor Kairisi, then no one could find any handle on the merger of the Space-Time Empire and the Human Federation. Even if everyone knew in their hearts that this was just a small trick Ye Nan played, it was useless.

However, at this time, Ye Nan wouldn't make any insulting or beating actions toward Councilor Kairisi's provocation, because once he did so, it would be equivalent to handing the handle to the Engineer, causing his merger to fail in the Pan-Galactic Alliance.

"Since you wouldn't dare, why are you so arrogant when you speak?" Seeing Ye Nan wither, Councilor Kairisi became more and more excited. The resentment and grievances of the past few days were all swept away, leaving only the pleasure produced by pride and revenge.

"Where was I arrogant when I spoke?" Ye Nan asked back.

"You just said, 'So what if it is, so what if it isn't? Could it be that you, Engineer, still want to interfere in the internal affairs of the Human Federation?' Doesn't this sentence prove your arrogance?" Councilor Kairisi said sternly, trying to destroy Ye Nan.

He would never forget how this villain in front of him deceived him and used him to create a robot army.

He would also never forget the insidious schemes this villain in front of him played, wanting to annex the entire Human Federation.

But now, he could finally take revenge. He was no longer a sinner through the ages, but a hero who saved the entire Human Federation. At the same time, he would also be the supreme leader of the Human Federation, the truly supreme leader, no longer the powerless councilor from before.

"I still have to thank you, thank you for clearing away all obstacles. Now, I just need to come out and pick the peaches." Councilor Kairisi narrowed his eyes and laughed loudly in his heart. Although he had fantasized about this scene many times, when it really came, he still felt ecstatic.

He understood the power of the Pan-Galactic Alliance better than anyone. It was precisely because of this that he believed Ye Nan would not be stupid enough to oppose the orders of the Pan-Galactic Alliance. And having obtained the support of the Pan-Galactic Alliance, it was equivalent to holding an imperial decree in his hand. Any mortal had to kneel and listen to the decree.

"You seem to be happy too early, my dear Councilor Kairisi." Ye Nan's voice was like the gloomy wind from under the Nine Netherworlds, blowing into the depths of Councilor Kairisi's heart.

"After Heaven, it is Hell. Councilor, are you ready to go to Hell?" (To be continued.) ===== CHAPTER 531 =====
