Chapter 496: Outline Unlocked, Superweapons!

These few questions had already caused the entire hall to quiet down. Numerous invited guests were Trembling With Fear, while the numerous reporters stared intently at these two peers.

Although this occasion was indeed a good opportunity to become famous in one fell swoop, one also needed to have the life to enjoy this fame.

Potes, Harkon, these two civilizations were not well-known In interstellar space.

They belonged to one of the many inconspicuous civilizations within the Civilization Alliance.

And because their interstellar geographical location was relatively far from Return Star, they hadn't had much contact with Return Star in the past.

Unexpectedly, they asked such bold questions.

The complexions of the numerous Return Star High Echelon varied. Cold light flickered in Vimala's eyes, and her gaze fell on Titus.

Undoubtedly, these two people must have been arranged by Titus. It was nothing more than creating surging undercurrents under a stable overall situation.

Although he resolutely denied the statement that "he himself is the true heir".

However, all this was also within Vimala's expectations. She knew today's ceremony was destined not to be peaceful.

Since Titus had already made a move, they only needed to counter it next.

Titus looked calm as he said to this reporter: "Regarding the battle in No Man's Land, I cannot provide more information, but Duke Li Yu is right here, you can ask him."

Li Yu was somewhat stunned, not expecting Titus to directly guide the person to him.

In unison, numerous reporters shifted their gazes over. This was also a heavyweight big shot, it was just that today was Klein's ascension celebration, so they couldn't have too much contact with Li Yu.

Yet they didn't expect Titus to directly draw this person out.

Vimala's face sank slightly. So Titus was also harboring this idea.

By drawing out heavyweight figures, he continuously weakened Klein's weight in today's ascension celebration.

Under normal circumstances, only Klein should be on the ascension celebration stage.

She was supposed to be the focus of the entire venue, but due to various reasons, it became three people.

It already shared Klein's weight, and now Titus drew Li Yu out again.

The No Man's Land war had just ended, and this person was also a person of the hour On the interstellar stage, once again diverting a lot of the focus away from Klein.

If Li Yu stepped onto the stage again, then there would be four people on stage. Whose ascension ceremony would have three people and the ruler in the same Camera Lens at the same time?

Do not underestimate this small trick. If four people stood on stage, then Klein would not be able to occupy the center position.

This would weaken Klein's prestige. After all, who had ever seen someone beside Digor able to sit as an equal with him?

The silent Political Struggle had already begun from this moment.

Moreover, the person Titus drew out was Li Yu, who was inherently Klein's hardcore supporter, making it difficult for Vimala to act up.

Since the other party had already handed the microphone to his mouth, Li Yu had no choice but to stand up. His eyes flickered, and he lowered his head to take out a not-so-thick book.

In the eyes of outsiders, this book was completely empty, with nothing in it.

But in Li Yu's field of vision, it was not so—[Tarkinism Outline]

He had obtained this book a while ago, but had never opened it because this thing had a prerequisite requirement.

It could only function when the faction he belonged to had a ruler.

Not only that, there was also a minimum requirement for the scale of the affiliated faction: it must be a top-tier interstellar civilization with no less than ten trillion ruled Citizens.

Return Star naturally met the latter condition, but the Return Star of the previous period happened to be in a power vacuum, with no ruler behind it at all.

So, Li Yu had never been able to use this thing. The [Tarkinism Outline] classified him as a person of Return Star, rather than some Other-Dimensional Camp.

After all, the Other-Dimensional Camp was created by Li Yu himself.

And now, with Klein succeeding the throne, the [Tarkinism Outline] didn't disappoint Li Yu and truly unlocked.

[Affiliation -- Return Star

Ruler -- Empress Klein

Approval Rating -- 18%

Unlocked Chapter 1 -- [Silencer - Its firepower can quickly destroy several Main Ships consecutively.]

[Barrage -- Planetary turbo Laser array, used to destroy orbital fleets to prevent orbital bombardment.]

[Gravity Impact Device -- This device uses Gravity waves to affect a planet's Gravity field, thereby generating effects similar to earthquakes and other natural disasters.]

.........]

On the simple panel, approximate information was displayed. Regarding the [Tarkinism Outline], Li Yu had also roughly figured it out.

This thing was essentially to consolidate the ruler's Status. As long as the approval rating continuously increased, more outline chapters could be unlocked to obtain more Superweapon blueprints.

So letting Klein become the Empress was truly a worthwhile deal for him.

Otherwise, even if driven by Superweapon, he wouldn't want to help a grown man rule Return Star.

With Klein ruling Return Star, he...ahem, those who understand will understand.

It was just that what surprised Li Yu was that Klein's approval rating was actually only 18%.

And presumably, a lot of this 18% was due to the Identity bonus, not because of her herself.

The Identity of the ruler probably directly endowed her with about 10% approval rating.

Even after she became Empress, this number was extremely low. It could even be said that using this number to publicly run for Grand President would have no chance of winning at all.

According to the calculations of some Interstellar Sociologists, in a normal interstellar civilization, only about 70% care about who is ruling them.

About 30% of the Citizens completely don't care, as long as the ruler doesn't damage their own interests.

Of course, this number is not completely accurate and has a range of fluctuation.

And right now, out of the approximately 70% of Citizens, only 18% approve of Klein. Truly... outrageous...

And what he didn't know was that if it weren't for her, this number would likely be even lower.

If it were Titus, it would probably head straight for 50%.

Li Yu pondered, while the scene had been silent for nearly a minute.

Numerous reporters looked at the blank book in Li Yu's hands, not knowing what was going on.

"Sorry, there are too many camera lenses, I'm a little shy, let me look at the script first." Li Yu put away the [Tarkinism Outline], his expression as usual.

He didn't step onto the stage, but just stood where he was, his face somewhat confused: "Right... what was the question again?"

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Li Yu nodded to himself: "Oh... remembered."

"You are right, we are going to fight on two fronts, we are going to prove our Strength..." Li Yu's voice suddenly rose by several degrees, making everyone's bodies tremble, and they listened carefully to this Duke's speech.

Cold light burst forth from Li Yu's eyes: "Why were we attacked this time? It's because our fists were not hard enough, not strong enough. If we were like the Star Glory Empire, would anyone still dare to attack us?"

This attitude was too tough!

The numerous civilization Political Leaders present sighed in their hearts subconsciously.

Within a civilization, there were inherently many factions, with Conservative Faction and hardliners.

Someone as tough as Li Yu was still relatively rare.

Then his voice changed, and he added: "His Majesty Digor and I only met once, and that meeting benefited me a lot."

He sighed with emotion, "At that time, Majesty Digor was exterminating a planet. The people of that planet knelt before him and cursed Majesty Digor..."

Speaking of this, Li Yu paused slightly. He seemed to remember that the person at that time cursed that the Central Star System would also be torn apart.

Damn, it seems to have come true now...

"But he didn't care at all, and told me that in this Interstellar Era, only the fist is the hardest truth!"

Uh... Alexei's expression was odd. Is exterminating someone else's planet something that can be spoken about on such an occasion?

"And why did Majesty Digor choose Empress Klein? Because Empress Klein can carry out his philosophy!"

After Li Yu finished speaking, the scene was dead silent. Numerous reporters Look at Each Other in Dismay, as if they inadvertently heard some big news.

But it didn't seem too big either.

In short, Li Yu's speech could roughly represent Klein's governing philosophy, which was to carry out Digor's toughness.

Vimala frowned slightly but then relaxed. Binding Klein and Digor together could to some extent win the support of some Citizens.

"Alright, thank you Your Excellency the Duke for resolving our confusion..." Titus had a smile on his face, but deep in his eyes was a patch of coldness.

Li Yu sat down again and took out the [Tarkinism Outline] once more. Sure enough, Klein's approval rating had already reached 20%.

Clearly, Digor's tough policy was very popular with the people. With such a ruler, one could speak with their chest puffed out when traveling.

However, tough policies also needed to be built on a certain level of Strength, otherwise it was being an Idiot.

Of course, the approval rating was not immutable and might fall later, but Li Yu didn't care; anyway, his second chapter was already unlocked.

[...

[Eye of Palpatine -- A massive, irregularly shaped Super Star Destroyer.]

[Interstellar Ion Cannon -- Its powerful ion beam can evaporate the Atmosphere.]

...]

Is this already involving planetary-level Superweapon just in the second chapter?

Li Yu's expression changed slightly, looking slightly expectant. There were still many chapters later.

The Superweapon blueprints given by the [Tarkinism Outline] were all similar to the Death Star. As long as raw materials were filled in, they could be directly manufactured.

Unfortunately, these were all one-time uses. Mass manufacturing would require reverse-engineering the Technology, which was not a simple project.

However, he now had Empress Klein backing him, with a large number of research teams on standby at all times.

After these few sharp questions, the rest proceeded much more normally.

The ceremony ended smoothly. The only surprising thing was the few questions that Suddenly Appear in the middle and Li Yu's speech.

Although the ceremony had ended, there was still a massive amount of work waiting for Klein next.

She needed to confirm with numerous civilizations whether the treaties previously signed with them would be changed, as well as sign many new treaties.

After these two wars, many civilizations wanted to sign a [Non-Aggression Treaty] and a [Friendly Trade Treaty] with Return Star.

This was just one of the benefits after winning the war, and there were more interests to strive for next.

At the same time, somewhere In interstellar space, the High Echelon of The Reformers were also watching this ascension ceremony.

"Klein has truly become the Empress. Titus can only swallow his anger temporarily, but he won't let it go. According to news, he is already brewing something."

"We might be able to secretly support him to obtain interests in Return Star."

"...I don't recommend it..." Husband shook his head: "Rather than contacting Titus, it's better to cooperate with Klein."

"Don't forget the No Man's Land war..."

Mentioning this topic, several Elder all fell silent.

Originally, their plan was almost on the verge of failure, with heavy losses.

But Li Yu emerged out of nowhere and annihilated the Star Glory Empire's battleships.

This also resulted in their plan failing, but not completely failing.

"But Klein has Li Yu's help, and the Other-Dimensional Camp's backing. To some extent, she is at an advantage." Someone shook their head:

"The interests that can be grabbed from the advantageous side are always limited."

"Don't just focus on the present. Li Yu annihilated the Golden Lion Legion, the Star Glory Empire cannot possibly Sit and Wait for Death. The Council launched an attack on Return Star for some unknown reason, but they obviously didn't succeed either."

Husband's tone was profound: "After this war, the Interstellar Landscape will gradually enter the next stage."

"Overall, the one currently at a disadvantage is Return Star..."

The rest of the Elder all fell silent. They only looked at it from the situation of Return Star's Interior, but Husband had already set his sights on the entire Interstellar space.

"Help Klein?" Someone asked tentatively.

"Tell all the Resistance Organization within Return Star borders that are in contact with us to let them evacuate as soon as possible..." Husband paused suddenly when he said this, and then shook his head again:

"No, let them contact Titus."

"You want these Resistance Organization to become the foundation of Klein's rule!?" Someone asked loudly, keenly noticing Husband's intentions.

"This does not conform to our purpose!"

"What about the No Man's Land war?" Husband countered. The Reformers were long no longer the initial The Reformers.

Seeing that no one answered his words, Husband finally spoke slowly: "Also, the Leader of those few Resistance Organization are still in Li Yu's hands."

"They are the executors of our plan, we must exchange them out, otherwise who will listen to us in the future."

"Do we have any chips to negotiate with Li Yu now?"

"Without chips, we can only create chips..."

Let those Resistance Organization contact Titus and pull some small tricks when Klein had just succeeded to the throne.

Then give the information of these Resistance Organization to Li Yu in exchange for the Leader of those few Resistance Organization.

This set of skilled actions by Husband made everyone feel a chill in their hearts.

But... they couldn't say any words of refutation.

A few small Resistance Organization versus the Leader of organizations like Blade of Kuzan'er, who was more important could be seen at a glance.

"Just... do it this way."

It was only after a long time that someone said in a deep voice.
