Chapter 680: Eve of the Storm, Vice President!

~13 min read 2,496 words

This was an online meeting. Husband had already set up a shielding option; except for some particularly crucial figures, the Communication Link of everyone else would be intercepted.

But Li Yu was different. The two had deep origins and frequently plotted against each other. More importantly, right now Li Yu was the protagonist of the dispute between the Star Glory Empire and the Other-Dimensional Camp.

Husband had an intuition that the other party contacting him now might involve a very important matter.

He raised his hand, gesturing for everyone to keep quiet, and at the same time showed the name on the Communication Link to everyone for a glance.

The expressions of the vast majority of people changed slightly. After briefly exchanging opinions, they all signaled for Husband to answer.

The scene maintained silence. While Husband answered, he shared the screen, projecting Li Yu's large face into this meeting as well.

"Long time no see, Your Excellency Husband." Li Yu greeted him familiarly, like an old acquaintance.

Husband's old face also squeezed out a smile, saying: "Your Excellency Dragon Sovereign, we indeed haven't contacted each other for a long time. I missed you very much."

"Haha, I originally wanted to chat with you personally..." Li Yu chuckled twice, shaking his head and sighing:

No matter how one listened to this sentence, it had the flavor of a Humblebrag. After all, not just anyone could dodge the Star Glory Empire's search.

The roots of the teeth of many elders of the Reformers itched slightly. They also wanted to hide and not come out, but alas, the Star Glory Empire could find their Stronghold every time.

"I don't know if there is anywhere we can be of help. The Reformers are duty-bound to resist interstellar hegemony." Husband said casually.

Sounds nice...

Li Yu was somewhat Speechless, and didn't make small talk anymore, saying: "I heard you are the ones behind the recent A-Tier Alliance incident adding fuel to the flames?"

Hearing him bring up this matter, the expressions of the many elders of the Reformers all underwent some changes.

"This matter indeed has traces of our operations. This is an important method to break the hegemonic rule of the Star Glory Empire." Husband did not conceal it. Since Li Yu had already contacted him, concealing it would be meaningless.

"Indeed, high and lofty ideals..." Li Yu echoed a couple of sentences, then followed up by saying: "I am also here to do my part to break the hegemonic rule of the Star Glory Empire. You guys need to proceed as quickly as possible."

"According to the news I received, the Star Glory Empire will soon be able to free their hands. If you act then, it will be troublesome."

Husband frowned, quietly looking at the other elders. Their expressions were all very ugly, seemingly communicating secretly but without any sound.

"You guys were found?" Husband pursued.

"That's not it." Li Yu shook his head, his tone relaxed: "You know, this kind of thing is nothing more than finding a way to step down. Continuing is not beneficial to anyone."

"I found a Scapegoat. When the time comes, I'll just apologize to the Star Glory Empire and coax them a bit, and it will be fine."

"There are no insurmountable hurdles."

The corners of Husband's mouth twitched slightly. Many guesses surfaced in his mind, which he suppressed one by one, and continued: "Thank you for the news, Your Excellency Dragon Sovereign."

"I don't know if there is anywhere else we can be of help." He repeated this sentence again. He knew it was impossible for Li Yu to purely come just to deliver news.

"What is your organizational structure for this A-Tier Alliance like?" Li Yu didn't answer this question directly, but instead asked a question.

Husband seemed to have guessed something, and said frankly: "The A-Tier Alliance must take A-Tier Lifeform as members. Members will provide Mutual Aid and Assistance to each other, and at the same time establish a high-level Council of Directors."

"Publicly elect one president, and two vice presidents, as well as three regular chairmen. When encountering extremely large-scale events, it requires a vote by the Council of Directors. The president has two votes."

"Abstention votes are not allowed. The A-Tier Alliance is closely bound up with everyone, and staying out of it is not allowed."

This was a simple organizational structure, and also a structure commonly used by many relatively loose organizations.

"The High Echelon doesn't seem to be many..." Li Yu was somewhat surprised.

"Currently there are only these. If powerful lifeforms come, the seats of chairmen can also be increased," Husband pointedly said.

"Currently..." Li Yu was even more surprised: "You have already won over five people qualified to speak On the interstellar stage?"

"For Your Excellency Dragon Sovereign to be so surprised, are you underestimating us a bit too much?" Husband felt faintly proud.

Li Yu shook his head and laughed despite himself: "I wouldn't dare."

Immediately, he stared into Husband's eyes and said, "I want a Vice President position."

"Vice President?"

The smile on Husband's face gradually disappeared, and the other elders of the Reformers even had expressions of anger surface on their faces.

"What, I don't have this qualification?" Li Yu's expression also gradually restrained, becoming indifferent.

Although he really didn't want to do this, Husband still had to deny this sentence first—

"Your Excellency Dragon Sovereign certainly has this qualification."

"It's just that we have already worked hard on this matter for a long time, and the other positions have already been set. Those Friend have also invested a very large amount of resources."

"Now, for you to directly demand a vice president position, isn't it a bit too much."

Then, he added: "I can give you a chairman position, guaranteeing you can become the vice president in the next term."

Li Yu wasn't angry either, and continued: "You should know my Identity. Me standing on the platform for you should bring a very large benefit."

"But there are equally risks!" Husband shook his head. Li Yu's identity and background were indeed sufficient, but he had also offended many people.

For example, that Forerunner organization originally would certainly be too lazy to care whether the A-Tier Alliance was established or not.

But if Li Yu became a vice president, it was hard to guarantee the other party wouldn't react.

Li Yu continued: "I can provide you with an excellent timing for establishment. At that time, the Star Glory Empire won't have time to pay attention to you."

"This..." Husband frowned, still wanting to refuse.

Even if the establishment of the A-Tier Alliance was fraught with risks, and still required a lot of time to guide it onto the right track.

But if they overcame these difficult obstacles in the early stage, then the A-Tier Alliance would be a behemoth spanning the Interstellar, bringing immense benefits.

The position of vice president was too sensitive. A step further was the president, and one could completely Snatch the spoils directly and take them as their own.

After all, it was impossible for Li Yu to become their puppet.

And above the chairman, there was still the vice president as a buffer. No matter what the situation, they would have reaction time.

"If you guys still disagree, then I can only see who the vice presidents are when the time comes, get rid of a few, to let me take the position." Li Yu started threatening.

Husband was not angry, but instead somewhat puzzled: "Your Excellency Dragon Sovereign thinks so highly of the A-Tier Alliance?"

Those people they won over originally had a good relationship with the Reformers, and even so, it took a lot of time to lobby them.

In the eyes of those people, this was a Gamble with extremely high risk. The return was very high, and the danger was also very great. They didn't know what the final outcome would be.

But Li Yu seemed certain that the A-Tier Alliance would eventually become a behemoth, and wanted to occupy a high position right from the start.

"I believe in you guys." Li Yu's words made Husband Speechless.

He thought for a long time, and Li Yu didn't urge him. The other elders of the Reformers seemed to have finished communicating.

They seemed to have made some kind of decision, focusing their gazes on Husband.

Everyone was waiting for Husband to speak.

"Okay..."

Ultimately, he still nodded. The weak A-Tier Alliance fundamentally had no room for resistance against Li Yu's tyrannical intrusion.

What's more, upon careful consideration, he found that the pros and cons of this matter were still unknown. The reputation of the Dragon Sovereign In interstellar space was generally positive, and his appeal was not small.

He added: "I will add a Vice President seat."

He didn't have Li Yu directly replace a certain vice president, but instead added another seat.

Li Yu nodded in satisfaction. He hadn't thought about being the president.

The first president was obviously a troublesome position and would directly bear the initial violent storms. He didn't want to take on so many troubles.

He was more inclined to directly Snatch the spoils when the timing was ripe.

"Not long from now, the Star Glory Empire will start a foreign war. The scale of the war will be very large. That will be an excellent time to establish it. Just wait for my news," Li Yu exhorted.

"Who is the Scapegoat?"

Husband tentatively asked.

"It has nothing to do with you guys, just wait for my news." Li Yu didn't say much more, but directly hung up the communication.

Husband once again looked around, but this time no sound arose. All the elders silently watched him.

Li Yu brought accurate news that the Star Glory Empire would soon be able to extricate itself from its current troubles, so there was only one path left for them now—establish the A-Tier Alliance as soon as possible!

He also seemed to have understood something, slowly stood up and said: "Everyone, bless me."

............

"The Reformers' level of planning for this matter actually exceeds my expectations." Li Yu rubbed his chin.

Next, the Star Glory Empire's foreign war, the establishment of the A-Tier Alliance... it seemed that the Interstellar would usher in a new shockwave soon.

However, right now his most important matter was still the Fallen Star Cinders before his eyes.

Early the next morning, Maros hurried over here and met Li Yu.

"Since Your Excellency Dragon Sovereign has come, why didn't you inform us in advance so we could separately arrange a viewing spot for you." Maros smiled, but breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He was deeply afraid that Li Yu was here to cause destruction. Heaven knows, when they received the news about Li Yu, the High Echelon even had the emergency war plans ready.

Li Yu invited Maros to sit down. The two sat facing each other, and Li Yu smiled: "Just treat it as me coming for a tour, no need to Demand An Explanation with such a big fuss."

A tour?

Maros didn't believe a single word. Although the Fallen Star Cinders was a rare beautiful scenery in the eyes of ordinary citizens, and its eruption period was even more magnificent,

But in the eyes of top-tier interstellar lifeforms like them, it was just so-so.

Li Yu specially rushing over definitely had a simple purpose.

Although he didn't know why Li Yu suddenly exposed himself and attracted their attention.

Normally speaking, if he really had his own purpose, hiding in the dark would be correct. There was no need to notify them.

But Maros made up his mind that next he must follow Li Yu closely, without leaving a single step.

"Your Excellency Dragon Sovereign really is in a good mood. The Tourist Ship is already prepared. On this planet, one can only see a bit of the eruption's aftermath," Maros invited.

"Then I'll follow your arrangements." Li Yu didn't refuse, but instead looked very happy.

Maros had just wanted to get up when he heard Li Yu suddenly say:

"By the way, that Time Speed Controller..."

Hearing this, Maros thought Li Yu came to Demand An Explanation. After all, they had gouged out the core, which was very unethical.

However, civilizations prioritized benefits. Who told Li Yu not to detect it on the spot?

"It's pretty good, I am very satisfied..." Li Yu smiled with profound meaning.

Maros let out a sigh of relief in his heart and forced two laughs: "As long as you are satisfied."

At the same time, he was somewhat suspicious in his heart. What did Li Yu mean by this?

Did he find out he suffered a hidden loss, but couldn't say it directly, so he came to rub dirt in their eyes?

This perspective was a bit too small, wasn't it?

At that time, you had already confirmed it was correct, and the transaction proceeded normally. If you couldn't spot the problem, you could only blame yourself.

Or... was it for some other reason?

He didn't have time to think much either, as Li Yu was already preparing to depart.

The Tourist Ship prepared by Holivias could absolutely be called top-tier luxury. With a length of nearly five thousand meters, it had every kind of entertainment facility inside.

Moreover, with a Guard Fleet following, they could watch from the closest distance to the Fallen Star Cinders.

With the approach of the eruption period, some citizens with a bit of assets also began renting spaceships to watch from a close distance.

However, in front of their behemoth, all spaceships could only make way.

This caused a heated discussion on the internal broadcasting channels. They didn't know what big shot had come to the scene to watch.

And Li Yu finally observed this Galactic Forbidden Zone famous in the Interstellar from a close distance.

The Fallen Star Cinders was like a crimson river.

Only what flowed inside was all planet fragments, emitting faint light, moving according to specific trajectories, and leaving tassel-like light trails behind.

These fragments, which should have turned dark brown in the interstellar low temperature, somehow still maintained a high temperature, and this had lasted for countless years.

This river had no end in sight, nor could the opposite bank be seen. Its three-dimensional center was a patch of crimson, like a star entering the end of its lifespan.

But in reality, even ten stars couldn't reach that scale.

From time to time, crimson ring-shaped light waves would burst out, wrapping up star fragments and disturbing this "river," forming scenes similar to "ocean waves." The star fragments fluctuated up and down, with dazzling colors, exceptionally magnificent.

As early as thousands of years ago, this place was listed as a "protected area" by Holivias. No one was allowed to enter casually, with the high-sounding name of avoiding casualties.
