Resurrection Empire

Chapter 459 The Iron-Blooded Viscount

Perhaps they were shocked by the suddenly exposed ambitions of Ren Zhong, a new giant who emerged as a deserter, or perhaps the thinking of many of the most powerful people has not yet broken free from the previous drastic changes, or perhaps they just couldn't think of it for a while. He could not come up with an appropriate rebuttal, or he was afraid of the power of Ren Zhong, who was still the marshal of the army. After Ren Zhong expressed his stance, no one spoke for a while, and there was a strange silence.

Ren Zhong did not intend to give others the time and space to discuss privately, and continued: "As I said before, this journey back home will become very difficult. Even if the 'net' can help us eliminate misunderstandings with the empire, it cannot It controls the thoughts of the Ascendants, Pilgrims and Psychic Demons. The resources accumulated by a complete colonial base over a thousand years are enough to attract covetous attention."

"The inefficient mechanism of the association's elders is sufficient for managing the internal affairs of Source Star, but now we have to face the unknown deep space of the universe. Although the 'net' that is about to be repaired will provide us with enough information to guide us, But our memories and bodies have not yet known this experience.”

"We are going on a long voyage with a straight-line distance of four light years, and the actual distance is still unclear. After the last radio wave is sent out, our whereabouts are no longer secret, and we may be threatened by the enemies of the empire at any time. In the fleet There will be a total of two billion people, two billion lives. The number of people on each ship is either two hundred thousand or thirty thousand. Not one or two, nor one hundred. Once an accident occurs, deal with it If we don’t do our best, many people will die.”

"So, in the voyage fleet, order must be reestablished, and there is only one choice. Let the most capable person get the greatest power... His orders must be implemented with the highest efficiency and the most thoroughness. He will carry it alone. The two billion people and the success of the entire Pathfinder colonization project are responsible for it. I call it absolute centralization. And I, with heavy responsibility, am the best and only person to do the job."

When Ren Zhong made a full statement, he was actually reviewing his own strategy.

He killed the old popsicles and caused the Tracefinder's final alarm to reveal the existence of the colony to the entire universe.

The content of that message was relatively brief, but it also clearly stated that the colony had reached the final moment of its migration and could be moved at any time.

It looked as if he had made a huge mistake.

But actually thinking about it carefully, he already had no choice.

The information he received from the outside world was constantly being updated.

When he first invaded the Tracker and began to interrogate the old popsicles, he didn't know about the "last wave". He only knew that the Tracker spacecraft would self-destruct.

Later, he changed his mind and learned more information by pretending to be an apostle of the empire.

At this time, he did know about the "last wave".

However, under the circumstances at that time, Ren Zhong judged that his best choice was to use his identity as an apostle to falsely convey the "imperial edict" to avoid the continuous killing and harvesting in the next fifteen years. He achieved his goal and tampered with the old The ideas and established strategies of the popsicles have successfully preserved the population base on the Source Star until now.

However, his apostle status is untenable. If he really relies on this false apostle status to enter the empire, he will not be able to withstand the scrutiny at all. The secret will definitely be exposed. The people on the Source Star will definitely be dealt with by the empire’s cleaning team. In the end He still did useless work.

Therefore, the old popsicle must die, and the old lies must be covered with more lies to form an unbreakable wall of lies.

Ren Zhong once thought about using Li Yang to indirectly control Lao Bingluo and weave lies from another angle.

But later, after Sun Ai was resurrected and the database in the backup system of "Net" was gradually restored, Ren Zhong carefully studied the mysterious race of psychic demons.

Li Yang's ability is indeed very similar to that of the psychic demon. It can even be said that Li Yang is simply a wild psychic demon born by chance.

However, the Machinery Empire has been fighting against the psychic demons for tens of millions of years. Although it is often at a disadvantage, it can even be said to be the weakest and most miserable among the four major human branches. Even the origin planet has been exploited once. I had to pick up the soup and lick it again, but the empire did not perish after all and could still sustain itself. This shows that the empire has a way to deal with the psychic demon descendants.

Since Li Yang's ability is no longer invincible, it is not worth relying on. Ren Zhong was careful and striving for perfection in his work, and naturally he would not bet the lives of the nearly 20 billion people who would stay on the Source Star and the two billion people who would follow him to the empire on Li Yang's ability.

Therefore, things are destined to develop like this.

"Everyone, I'm done. If you have any opinions, you can feel free to speak out."

After finishing speaking, Ren Zhong looked around with a smile.

He focused on observing the expressions of some people from the association's top elders.

Although Ren Zhong has long been in a high position, this is actually his first time dealing with these top-level dignitaries from the Source Star.

He acted deftly, even a little dismissively.

After another moment of silence, one of the elders who looked older coughed lightly and said, "Marshal, I have a different opinion."

This old man is now the rotating chief elder and theoretically enjoys the greatest administrative power.

In the past fifteen years, the previous generation of chief elders chose to retire after reaching the age of forty, and is now sleeping peacefully in a freezer in a core transport ship.

The previous generation's rotating chief elder was Ying Hao. Ying Hao also rarely accepted two re-elections and died of exhaustion, working in this position until the last day of his life.

The chief elder of this generation comes from the Yersun Group. His name is Donald Yersun. He is the previous chairman of the Yersun Group and the father of the current chairman of the Yersun Group. I don't know if it was Li Yang's plan to promote him to the top in the first place or if he just grabbed one at random, but that doesn't matter anymore.

Now, facing the fleet commander Ren Zhong, only Donald Yalson can barely surpass Ren Zhong at the administrative level and has the most say.

Ren Zhong made a gesture of invitation, "Please speak."

"The association elders system created by the nine great ancestors has protected the Source Star for a thousand years, and has completed the colonization task perfectly and even exceeded the quota. Facts have proved that our wisdom is not a display. I am opposed to the implementation of absolute centralization, and we should still maintain it The original system. Because humans may make mistakes, but more people participate in decision-making, which can increase the error tolerance rate. The speed of decision-making will indeed be slower, but I think it is more important to avoid making mistakes."

Ren Zhong heard the words and smiled lightly, "It sounds reasonable. But I reject your objection, and your objection is invalid."

"You...don't you think this is inappropriate?" The chief elder's face suddenly turned red, as if he wanted to point angrily at Ren Zhong, but he vaguely felt a cold light flashing in Ren Zhong's pupils in the picture, and then thought of Ren Zhong. The military power he held at that time quietly put down his fingers.

On the other side, another elder also from the Yersun family stood up and said, "Marshal, we do not deny your military command ability. Although the way you showed your ability was to command our army to attack our ancestors, and you succeeded. But this is indeed a fact. However, don’t forget that the entire Origin Star civilization was created by our ancestors. As their legal heirs, we should enjoy their rights after their unfortunate sacrifice. Now there is no Li Yang, we Our ancestors held imperial titles, and as direct descendants, we naturally have aristocratic status in the empire. In essence, you are just a deserted person who is a descendant of frozen embryos, a pariah in the empire, and maybe even just a human being. Slave. Why are you above us? Do you really think that your Ren Group is so powerful that it has more dominance than the nine major groups combined?"

These words express the true feelings of the Yersen family and some other people.

Although the road ahead is still full of unknowns, they have already set their sights on the rights they may gain after returning to the empire.

Whoever controls the power on the way back will naturally receive the most praise and the most benefits when they arrive in the empire.

This is reasonable, after all, before Li Yang appeared, the nine major groups coexisted in this manner and crushed each other.

Especially now that people from the Yersun Group have taken control of the Supreme Presbyterian Council, the biggest competitor, the Promotion Association, also disappeared with the death of Ying Hao.

The opportunities before Yersun Group are huge and it is inevitable to be tempted.

Ren Zhong did not refute, but quickly glanced at the faces of Ma Xiacheng, Ying Ye, Tang Youyun, the current chairman of Tanggu Group, Gao Ya, the current chairman of Amethyst Mining, and others.

He felt slightly relieved.

Although they had only interacted with each other briefly, and later unfortunately became Li Yang's "friends", their friendship fifteen years ago still gave these people a clearer understanding of his abilities, and they did not show any concern for him on their faces. The proposal from the two men from the Yersen Group showed no sign of approval.

"Why are you asking me?" Ren Zhong began to reply and slowly stood up.

"I'm afraid you don't know that in the normal process, when the nine administrators die and the highest alarm is sent out, the Tracer spacecraft will explode itself? But now it has not exploded. Do you know why? "

After Ren Zhong finished speaking, the middle-aged Ma Xiacheng's eyes suddenly brightened.

He had already learned from Ma Zhongfei that "Net" had entered the recovery process, and now he seemed to be getting the answer.

After saying that, Ren Zhongshu waved his hand, and a simulated projection replaced the content in his own video frame.

It is the simulation diagram of the lattice structure of the "net" that Ma Xiacheng is very familiar with.

The simulated picture is no longer the despairing black and red colors, but has returned to the former green, red and yellow colors that change with each other.

Not only that, the screen continued to zoom out, including most of the Source Star galaxy. One after another, green dots representing successful connections were lighting up on the Source Star, and on various space stations, planetary colonies and ships.

This means that the chips and cores that originally played the main role in the smart devices in these places are re-establishing links with the "network".

"Fortunately among the misfortunes, at the moment when the nine administrators died, our 'Net' fully restored its functions. Now, the Source Star Civilization is about to return to the protection of the 'Net'. At the same time, the 'Net' recognized The same-level authority that the cryonic elders once granted me seamlessly took over the Seeker spacecraft and promptly terminated the self-destruction process. This is the dual authority authentication given to me by the 'Net' and the Seeker Brain. You can take a look. .”

The lattice structure of the "net" in the frame disappeared, replaced by two documents with the genetic signatures of nine administrators.

After these people saw clearly, the screen changed back to Ren Zhong's face, "Now I am the new administrator, and I will not accept refutation. This is also what the nine previous administrators jointly certified after the evolution of the Source Star Colony through natural selection. As a result, this appointment by the Empire is completely legal and compliant."

There was a sudden silence on the scene.

Although Ren Zhong did not complete the authority authentication in the tracer, when Sun Ai activated "Net", it was Ren Zhong who completed the process of entering the "Net" identification code.

In the empire's management rules for trace seeker colonization, there is indeed a relevant supplementary explanation, which is equivalent to if he has been legally recognized by the nine administrators. It no longer mattered whether he was an apostle or not.

As for the process of entering the apostle code into the tracer, it had already been deleted by Sun Ai, who had not yet restored contact with the empire.

This fatal piece of information has long since been lost in the universe, and no one knows about it anymore.

But there's more to Ren Zhong's killer game than just that.

"What I just said is the first point. In short, because I am the only administrator, my temporary title is higher than the baron of all the ancestors here. I am a temporary viscount of the empire. Although my temporary title is not It has not been recognized by the empire and only complies with the emergency temporary bill, but a viscount is a viscount! As for you, when you return, you will only be a baron at most, and you will not even have a title."

"Second, I am now the marshal of the Origin Star Colonial Fleet. The authorization given by Ying Ye and the head of the military department is illegal because it was interfered by the psychic demon. But the previous administrator was not dominated by the psychic demon. Their authorization is legal. Then I am legal. If you want to deprive me of my position as marshal, I must be deposed by the Imperial Military Department. But is this possible?"

"Third, don't forget that there is a good thing on every ship, whether it is a colonial ship or an armed battleship. We can escape from the clutches of the psychic demon because of it. It is a meritorious official. . Now, as the Fleet Admiral, I have been certified by the 'Net', and I have legal and sole control over these meritorious officials."

This is a clear threat to Ren Zhong.

This so-called meritorious minister refers to the three-phase bomb.

Since three-phase bombs can save the world, they can also be used to destroy the world.

If Ren Zhong is really aggressive, choose to detonate all three-phase bombs simply and neatly.

Not to mention how many people will die, the most important thing is that the fleet is completely gone.

It would take at least a hundred years to rebuild a fleet of this size and complete resource collection again.

Especially the huge amount of human brain resources cannot be copied.

Now that the last radio wave has been sent out, there may be two other patrols in the autumn wind at any time, and there may also be psychic demons looking for their compatriots. We must leave as soon as possible. There will not be another hundred years to rebuild the fleet, and we must set off immediately. !

The Iron-Blooded Viscount completed his final kill.
