Chapter 9

【"In our glass bead collection, we have a precious hatching planet."】

On the throne entrenched with cables, the figure said with a light laugh.

【"This is worth distributing three days of consumer goods to the citizens."】

【"Cheers, for our benevolent Angel of Mercy, for our brand-new collectible."】

He raised the wine glass in his hand and toasted with the ministers under the throne to celebrate that the empire had a brand-new collectible.

And the beings of the universe who were watching this scene felt a chill down their spines.

The Solin Protozoa, known as the First Disaster, the hatching planet they used to produce terrifying biological warships,

was actually treated as a glass bead collectible by the Disaster Empire.

They let the swarm slaughter all the starfish on a planet, let the swarm transform the barren planet into a terrifying hatching planet,

just to... add a precious glass bead to the Disaster Empire's collection.

Bronya only felt dizzy, her stomach churning, wanting to vomit.

She stood up staggeringly, grabbing the edge of the table to keep herself from falling.

Solin Protozoa, a terrifying cluster of organisms that could swallow an entire star system,

in front of the Solin Protozoa, Jarilo-VI was probably just a small prey not enough to fill the gaps between teeth.

But it was such a terrifying race that was stored as a collectible by the Disaster Empire.

Bronya staggered to the window, looking at the narrow city covered by wind and snow before her.

For the first time, she felt that her planet, her civilization, was so narrow, so not worth mentioning...

Bronya shuddered; she saw the huge starship suspended in the sky.

In an instant, she mistook that starship for the Colossus hanging high in the sky.

The next moment, it was about to destroy, pest-remove, or make Jarilo-VI into an exquisite glass bead.

Bronya covered her face, suddenly realizing that she had listened to the official's words and let Gepard go to welcome the Emperor of this starship.

If this civilization had similar values to the Disaster Empire...

Bronya shuddered and could not care about anything else, hurriedly rushing out of the door.

(Is there anything else you want to see about the Colossus? Nanite Plague? Divine Retribution? World Cracker? Pacifier beam or Toxic flow (Shimokitazawa's bow)?).

13. 【Let's lay our cards on the table】

"Insane and acting perversely!"

"Actually letting a small garrison officer come to welcome the noble Emperor of the Empire! Bah!"

Xiao Hui pointed at Gepard and scolded sternly, fully displaying the empire's magnanimity:

"I'll give you eight words: No father, no ruler, abandoning the country and the family."

Gepard's face was ashen, and the Silvermane Guards standing behind him also had bad expressions.

But Gepard could understand the anger of this gray-haired woman before him.

When he received the order, he was also stunned.

"I'm going to receive an Emperor of an interstellar civilization? Really or fake?"

Gepard felt it was really rude, but this was the order of Qlipoth Fort, and he had to obey.

"Didn't you learn diplomatic knowledge?"

Zhou Xuan laughed dumbly, looking at Xiao Hui beside him and asking:

"What school of diplomatic language is this that you learned?"

"Don't you think it's very elegant?" Xiao Hui stuck out her tongue and said: "The imperial starship is in the sky; if I don't act tough, won't I lose face for the empire?"

"Besides, they really went too far; that Supreme Guardian is not sick or in disaster, yet she didn't come to welcome us personally."

Saying this, Xiao Hui's eyes were slightly cold:

"If you are really interested in this planet, I will let the Angel of Mercy stroke it later and put it on the collection shelf."

"Daring to speak to the empire like this, is their race wholesale?"

Zhou Xuan smiled lightly, glancing to the side...

"Sorry, Emperor Zhou Xuan, Secretary of State Gray Wind."

A silver-haired woman wearing a military uniform walked quickly toward Zhou Xuan and the others.

"Your Excellency Supreme Guardian!"

Gepard looked at the silver-haired woman and found it was the Supreme Guardian Bronya, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had been saved.

Bronya nodded slightly to Gepard, then crossed him and bowed slightly to Zhou Xuan and Gray Wind:

"I am Bronya, the current Supreme Guardian of Belobog."

"Sorry, Emperor Zhou Xuan, I encountered some obstacles... only now was I able to rush over to welcome you."

"Please forgive my rudeness, please believe that Belobog will welcome you with the highest etiquette next."

Saying this, some sweat flowed down Bronya's hair.

It could be seen that she had rushed over in a hurry.

Bronya was slightly nervous, not daring to fix her gaze on the two people before her, for fear of offending the representatives of these two powerful civilizations.

Zhou Xuan smiled gently: "The empire always punishes rude barbarians, but it is always tolerant of young children."

"Your civilization is still young, and you lost a moment of etiquette in the internal friction of the administrative system, which can be forgiven a little."

Bronya could not help but breathe a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

It seemed that this Emperor Zhou Xuan was truly a tolerant and benevolent monarch.

Not only benevolent, but also wise.

He easily saw that she had lost etiquette because of the officials' containment and the internal friction of the administrative system.

Bronya's respect and affection for Zhou Xuan increased simultaneously.

Presumably, an empire with such a benevolent monarch must also be a harmonious and benevolent country!

It's just...

Bronya felt Zhou Xuan's voice was somewhat familiar, as if she had heard it not long ago.

Bronya could not help but fix her gaze slightly on Zhou Xuan.

Black hair and black eyes, wearing pajamas, draped in a thick coat, wearing three medals on his chest...

A very unique person, but Bronya did not know him.

After hesitating for a moment, Bronya asked politely: "Thank you, Emperor Zhou Xuan, for forgiving our rudeness..."

"... Can I ask a small question? Is Emperor Zhou Xuan..."

Before Bronya could ask the doubt in her heart, the light screen before her suddenly lit up.

On the light screen was the magnificent hall of the Disaster Empire; in the center of the hall was the throne wrapped in cables.

The vague figure sat casually on the throne, listening to the report of the ministers below...

【"Your Majesty, the hatching planet stroked by the Angel of Mercy has been stored in the collection library."】

【"Legendary commander leader 'Baron Victor Sheridan' has also successfully captured a 'Solin Protozoa Queen'."】

【"It has now been transported to the scientific hub; it is expected that within thirty natural days, we will be able to cut off its connection with the swarm and make it obey our orders."】

【"The empire can use this to manufacture its own Solin Protozoa army..."】

【"Your Majesty, the swarm is ours."】

The figure sitting on the cable throne nodded slightly.

His gaze swept across the officials and ministers present, and he said softly:

【"Everyone, it is time for the segment the empire loves most!"】

【"Let's lay our cards on the table with the swarm!"】

Listening to the words of the Emperor of the Disaster Empire in the light screen, listening to this inexplicably familiar voice,

Bronya's cheeks twitched suddenly, and she looked at Zhou Xuan with some confusion.

"What's wrong."

Zhou Xuan wore a gentle and benevolent smile, using the exact same voice as the Emperor of the Disaster Empire in the light screen, and said:

"You look troubled; is there anything I can do?"

"Oh, right... did I mention that I am very interested in your planet."

Bronya only felt her legs go soft.
