We are about to pay you a large sum of money. I think that is enough respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand what you mean, but it becomes troublesome if you have attack rights. This planet has billions of humans other than me, and we must consider public opinion.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to explain in more detail, but it was getting dark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that the time for abnormal weather and nighttime dungeons was approaching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Yeongwoo needed to rest as soon as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you want full autonomy, help me conquer this planet as soon as possible.

The cost would be astronomical.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>- So what do we do? Is there anything other than paying money?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Bantubangtong asked this, an emblem of Dogo appeared in the center of Yeongwoo’s vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a computer booting up and showing the OS logo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh...!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then a new type of interface appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「The planetary development process will begin now.」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Ah, is the company officially intervening now?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo blinked rapidly, the next stage proceeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Is the power on the planet unified?」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Unified?
