Keha Star, the birthplace of the sons of Keha, is also the capital administrative star of the Tyron Empire founded by Emperor Akturos Monsk.
Today, in a large conference room at UNN TV's headquarters, the Empire's Emperor Monsk will hold a special reception for all journalists here, where he regards as a powerful tool for his rule, and Monsk himself will also conduct a live broadcast of the confrontation and answer some of the reporter's questions.
The main content of this reception is to be stated, in addition to praising the achievements made since the empire's rule, the rest is mainly about the newly emerging one, which invaded all TV channels without authorization and issued a declaration of founding of the country, recruited immigrants, and a series of related issues!
"Okay, everyone, if you have any questions, you can ask questions now. I'm very busy! So, you have ten minutes in total. As long as I know, I will definitely answer it!"
Before UNN TV's live camera, Emperor Akturus Monsk first gave a long personal speech, praised his own and the imperial achievements, and once again emphasized the countless achievements he had achieved since ascending the throne, then sat in the conference hall with unfulfilled satisfaction, and the reporters who had already been impatient reached out to signal.
"Hello, His Majesty Monsk, I am UNN's reporter Kate Rockwell. I want to ask you, what do you think about the sudden emergence and occupying Haven Star not long ago and announcing the establishment of a Federation of heroes in an independent and autonomous regime?"
As soon as Monsk finished speaking, UNN's female reporter who specializes in revealing the dark side of the empire could not wait to stand up and say his first question loudly.
This question is also the theme of today's press conference. So, when she saw her start asking questions, the other reporters did not feel much dissatisfied with her pre-speaking. They all cheered up, turned on various news equipment, aimed at Monsk, and looked forward to his next answer.
"Haha... According to the analysis of our Tyron Empire Think Tank, we unanimously agree that the newly emerged Federation of Heroes is actually just a small human force that has not known where to immigrate! I believe you also had some understanding of UED before, right?"
After asking back, Monsk continued with a smile.
"We humans are getting faster and faster in the colonization and expansion of this vast universe... Four years ago, the UED expeditionary force came to our Kopru Star Zone and fought with the humans, the protos and insects here... Now, a group of new forces coming here to colonize. Don't be too surprised by this!"
"That Federation of Heroes, they are nothing more than a group of colonists of more than 100,000 people. Compared with the tens of billions of people in our Tyron Empire, it is simply not worth mentioning!"
"What's even more ridiculous is that their head of state was a little girl who knew nothing? Therefore, we don't really care about their so-called Federation of Heroes. Compared with our huge Tyron Empire, they are just a group of countrymen who have never seen the world!"
"So, we will hold this press conference today to refute the rumors, condemning the other party's illegal means to occupy the TV channel and fight some time ago!"
"I believe that the citizens of the empire will take this matter rationally and not be tempted by the other party's false remarks! The other party is just a small force of more than 100,000 people. The nonsense promise they make is completely a false illusion!"
Thinking about the performance of the little girl's head of state when the other party delivered a serious speech, almost amused Monsk at that time!
At first, he thought it was an entertainment program from a certain TV station.
In order to attract immigrants, housing, vehicles and jobs are also provided for free? Even Tammonsk dared not make such a short invoice casually!
It was not long ago that the Imperial intelligence personnel obtained specific information from Hawenxing, knowing that the so-called Federation of Heroes on the other side was actually just a small force with a basically unarmed colonial ship and five heavy old-style battlecruisers. In addition to the large number of troops and the potentially stronger strength, they were not sure that they were much stronger than the flood of interstellar pirates or mercenary organizations!
So, Monsk really looked down on the other party from the bottom of his heart.
Such a small force would dare to come out to make a declaration casually. If the other party had not been within the territory of his empire, too close to the territory of the Star Spirit, and had not made any ideas specifically targeting his Tyron Empire, he would have sent a fleet to deal with the other party!
"As far as I know, they are UED, that is, the second group of criminals exiled by the former Earth coalition government UPL. They arrived in the Krup Star Zone by chance. They are the same source as our ancestors who came here more than 200 years ago. I wonder what attitude you have towards their arrival?"
Originally, as usual, a reporter could only ask one question, and then someone else would ask the question.
However, Kate Rockwell, a female reporter who likes to pick on the truth, did not care about the dissatisfaction and angry eyes of the people around him, and continued to stand and ask questions on his own.
Unlike the Imperial Military's first investigation of the other party's military intelligence, UNN's reporters also used their own methods and their own channels to obtain more detailed first-hand information from the Federation of Heroes from Hawenxing.
You know, news is timely, so at this time, Kate took it out and took advantage of the opportunity of Emperor Monsk to answer reporters' questions and published it directly!
In this case, I guess that damn Donnie wouldn't have cut off or blocked her speech at will?
"The Krup Zone is very large and there are many livable planets... So, for any new colonized human beings, no matter where they come from, no matter who they were once affiliated with, our Monsk Empire, we welcome them! We welcome them to join our Tyron family and enjoy the protection of our powerful army!"
After a pause, Monsk suddenly increased his tone and stretched out a finger.
"However, there is a prerequisite here: they must announce the abolition of independence, cancel the security forces beyond the necessary scale, and agree to merge into the territory of the empire and pay rated taxes for the Imperial Finance Bureau every year! Only in this way can our empire army protect citizens who abide by the imperial laws!"
To put it bluntly, that is, Monsk can accept the other party, but the other party must disband the excessive army or hand over those heavy military equipment!
Like the remote and barren Haven Star, where even pirates don’t want to visit, five heavy battlecruisers seem too much, even the old model! Monsk will never allow any autonomous planet in his own country to have a heavy fleet of such a size!
If the other party really wants to join his Tyron Empire and gain protection from the Imperial Army, then he must hand over the five battleships and reduce the size of the army, and accept supervision from the Imperial Army!
Since you join the empire and become an autonomous planet, you must look like an autonomous planet. Training a Marine Corps that maintains public order will be careless. A standardized large-scale army is absolutely not allowed! Hemmonsk does not want another force to repeat his old path and then rebel!
"His Majesty Monsk, I'm sorry to interrupt you!"
While Monsk was still unsatisfied and wanted to continue saying something, Kate interrupted the other party with no face.
"Although you keep saying that the army of the empire will protect the citizens of the empire, as far as I know: those refugees on Haven Star who have joined the Federation of Heroes and received protection from the other party were originally residents of the Agria agricultural planet destroyed by the swarm!"
"At that time, because the soldiers of the Empire took the initiative to abandon them and fled first, the helpless Agria had to turn to the interstellar thief Jim Renault. Then, with the help of Jim Renault, they were able to escape from the poisonous mouth of the insects and leave the planet Agria, and evacuate to settle on the more remote Haven Star..."
"His Majesty the Emperor, may I ask, is there any such thing? Are you aware of this? What do you think about the Imperial Military's actions at that time?!"
The female reporter Kate still shook out all the inside story she had obtained regardless of the gradually angry eyes of other reporters and the increasingly impatient expression of Monsk.
Hurry...
At the press conference, there were soon a burst of noise.
Hearing this, the other reporters who were originally very dissatisfied with Kate seemed to smell the fishy sharks. They turned on their various equipment and once again aimed at Monsk on the rostrum and the female reporter standing in the audience seats below to ask questions.
Such explosive news is much more interesting than what they were originally planning to ask!
The planet Aglia was captured by the swarm. They all knew about it, but they only knew the arguments brought out by the military. They always thought that the unlucky planet was the same as the other ones captured by the swarm!
Now, if we can record the new news and Q&A from both sides and get it back, we will surely attract the audience's attention than the original questions that they complained without any illness, right?
In that case, it will be of great help to their major TV stations! So, at this time, they all couldn't stand their dissatisfaction with Kate's breaking the rules, and looked forward to the next answers they would have.
"No! That's a rumor! The soldiers of our empire will never easily abandon any legal citizen! Absolutely not!"
Hearing this, Monsk's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. His expression, which was only a little dissatisfied, immediately became cold.
While staring at the female reporter in anger, he also secretly dissatisfied with the bastards in the military who were not good enough to do anything. Those bastards who are just good at doing stupid things, are useless to be afraid of death, and are also difficult for him to get off the Taiwan market now!
In Monsk's opinion, those cowards, those bastards who earn money and don't work, even those small group of wandering criminals, Jim Renault, could do, they didn't dare to beat them. When they saw the bug, they just ran away?
Their troops on the planet Aglia at that time should have been stronger than that Jim Reno? Is it impossible to resist a little and help the civilians escape?!
Look, the mess they left behind now actually requires the emperor of the empire to wipe their butts?
It's really outrageous!
After he finished his work, he must immediately dismiss the military chief at that time and take it out as a culprit!
"But we now have tangible evidence to show this, and there are related videos to prove it: at that time, the entire Imperial army of the planet Aglia did abandon them immediately, and even the notice of retreat was not issued, and the insects surrounded their colony! In the end, it was the interstellar thief Jim Renault's rangers who passed by helped them and temporarily resisted the swarm. Only those Aglias could retreat in time and avoid the swarm's poison!"
"May I ask, do you know about this? What explanation will you give?"
After seeing Monsk's face getting worse and worse, female reporter Kate Rockwell became more and more excited and his tone became higher and higher.
After saying what she knew and asking two questions, she even took out a device and played the scene of the Imperial Army taking the lead in abandoning the people and running away alone.
“…”
Seeing that the other party was obviously prepared and there were pictures and evidence, Monsk took a breath slowly and stared at the female reporter for a long time before he slowly explained:
"I am here to emphasize again: our empire's army will never easily abandon any imperial citizens!"
"This matter is a military secret after all, and I didn't want to say more! But since this Kate reporter asked, I might as well explain it to the fight: the reason why our empire's army retreated at that time was because the people on the planet Aglia were all mobs!"
"They had an affair with Jim Renault, the thug who had been thug, often provided weapons and other supplies to the other party. Therefore, our army had to retreat in order to avoid being attacked inside and outside and unnecessary losses!"
"And now, I believe you all know that in addition to the interstellar thief Jim Renault, they even hooked up with the Federation of Heroes of unknown origin! This is a naked treason!"
"So, our army was very correct at that time! Here, I will reiterate: our empire's army will only protect those law-abiding imperial citizens!"
After saying that, Monsk's face improved slightly.
He now gave his 8-pointer to his urgency! Although the explanation seemed a bit reluctant, in this way, he finally successfully reversed the image of the imperial army among the people and poured dirty water directly on the mobs. There was no better way to say this!
I believe these reporters will no longer ask any tricky and weird questions?
"I'm sorry, but as far as I know, the empire's army first abandoned the residents of the planet Aglia, and those Aglias sent out a helping signal for help! At that time, many people received signals from each other! At that time, only Jim Renault, who happened to pass by, went to save them! Even their communication records at that time, I have here!"
"This is inconsistent with what you just explained: those people have long been associated with Jim Renault!"
"We seem to be more willing to believe that at that time, the army of our empire first ran away shamefully! Then, the evildoers wanted by the empire and abused by the people did what the military should do. I wonder what you would explain this?!"
This news, the video surveillance and address videos at that time, were all obtained by Kate through special channels. The other party reluctantly gave the information to her for free because Kate was willing to tell the truth.
So, at this moment, she took out all of them at this live broadcast stall!
After seeing Monsk's face that had just improved on the rostrum deteriorated again, Kate knew that her goal today might have been achieved?
Today, she successfully exposed the shameful crime of the Imperial Army - under the threat of the swarm, she actually took the lead in fleeing and abandoning the people of the entire planet!
"Hmph! Military secrets, nothing can be told! Okay, that's all for today's press conference, see you all!"
Monsk waved his hand ruthlessly, turned around and left the rostrum and ended the live press conference early.
When he saw the female reporter named Kate coming, not only with pictures and evidence, but also with videos of the army's escape, the time when the Agria issued a distress signal and the records of the conversation with Jim Renault, Monsk knew that today, it seemed that there was no way to go again?
So, he decided to end this damn live broadcast first! After they thought of a better way and excuse, they would send a radio to clarify!
Anyway, UNN TV, which covers all the Kopru Star Zone, is under the control of Monsk, and the dominance of public opinion is also in his own hands, so he is not worried about any trouble!
At most, he would just pull out the garrison officers of the planet Aglia to shoot the target and serve as scapegoats for the people. Today, he would not suffer much except for being a little bit of facial skin. At most he would not be happy about this.
If the female reporter just now wanted to cause big trouble for herself with these things, then she would be too young!
———
"Ha! I like that female reporter! What's her name? Kelly?"
Jim Renault, who was drinking in the bar Huberian, laughed happily when he saw Monsk leaving on TV with a dark face.
"Sir, she is actually Kate Rockwell! She is a reporter who dares to tell the truth and expose all kinds of evils in the empire."
Matt, who was standing by the side, laughed rare after watching TV.
But he was a little puzzled. Why did this female journalist who often faced the official Tyron Empire still live well until now? According to Monsk's nature, wasn't it long since sent ghost troops to kill the other party secretly, let him evaporate, or simply find a crime to imprison him forever and imprison him in prison?
Why do you still let her wander outside and often talk bad things about the empire? Monsk shouldn't be so generous, right? Could it be that female reporter has a background?
"Ha! No matter what her name is, if we have any exciting news in the future, why not give her one?"
Renault suddenly came up with such a good idea.
"Sir, I don't recommend that you do that, that will only kill her!"
Matt thought about it and immediately rejected Jim's idea.
Although I don’t know why Monsk didn’t let someone attack the female reporter, if I, as a wanted criminal, really went to contact the female reporter secretly, then the other party might be really dead!
At that time, Monsk can even send someone to arrest the other party blatantly, and even Matt can come up with a reason now: contact the wanted criminals of the Empire in private with the intention of rebellion!
Then, waiting for her fate, there will definitely be no better thing than being executed or permanently imprisoned!
"Okay, okay, you're right!"
After thinking about it and feeling that his idea was not so good, Renault sighed in disappointment.
"By the way! Calculate the time. At this time, I'm going to be almost ready to attack Hai Wenxing, right? Do you think he will succeed?"
Except for mentioning this matter with Matt, Jim didn't even mention that old friend of Tekes Finley!
After all, he can be regarded as a secret person once, so the fewer people know, the better!
If the other party escapes from Hawenxing by chance and knows that he has informed him, wouldn’t he be revenge by the other party?!
"It should be almost the same as calculating the time, right? Otherwise, let's send a message to ask?"
Thinking about what his commander did before, Matt secretly regretted the unlucky promise.
Who did he find a good cooperation, but he even hit the Huberian! Wouldn't the other party ask more? The Huberian just helped Hawenxing, and his friendship with the Federation of Legends was not too bad. Why didn't he even do a basic investigation and hurried to come here to find his superiors to cooperate and make a fortune?
Now, his plan was just revealed, and his commander turned around and sold it all out. He also used the information that the other party was preparing to rob Haiwenxing in exchange for the promised 3,000 standard units of high-energy crystals. Even Matt secretly applauded this transaction!
If that group of heroes can be entrusted to kill him directly, that would be even better!
"Ha! Don't be too much! At most, Dr. Hansen will send us a message in one or two days! Now, the colonel of Oulan is almost done deciphering, right? Go and ask quickly! Then urge me?"
Reno, who had another big sip of wine, suddenly mentioned to Matt about deciphering the old Tyron Federal Adjutant robot.
Now their Huberian has been staying outside the Dead Port for more than two days, so we can't continue to waste time here like this, nor dare to stay here for a long time! In that case, if we are not careful, we will be targeted by the Empire's fleet, and then the trouble will be great!
"Okay, sir! I'll go now."
———
Hawenxing, a planet occupied by the Federation of Heroes, did not change much except for building a new city and re-planning the colonial gatherings of those Agris.
Now here is still in a busy construction period. Whether in space or on the surface of the planet, countless projects are under intense construction. There is still a long time before the heroes completely control this place.
At this time, in the basically completed City of Hope, near two ground warehouses, a large group of staff and SCV engineers were secretly installing various hidden anti-stealing instruments here in the name of maintenance equipment to target the upcoming threat of interstellar pirates.
"Hey! Galen, you said, why haven't that group of interstellar pirates come to rob us now? They are all bored lately!"
The head of state, under the roots of a broad-leaved tree native to the Haven Star, little Anne was sitting in a swing tied to the trunk, swaying, a little bored glance at Galen and others who were acting as the head of state guard.
They are now fiddling with some skewers on an electric stove, and guest-starring the chef to prepare today's lunch.
"Uh...if it's boring? Maybe we can continue to hunt and relax?"
When will the interstellar pirates come to rob? Where does Garen know?
Even this information was conveyed through Arriel Hansen. It is said that the other party is still a group of ghosts who can hide? Whether it is true or false remains to be discussed. We will not know until the other party actually comes to rob.
"don't want……"
Recently, the delicious or edible animals on the Hawen Star planet have basically caused great harm, and they almost ate them all. So, recently, Little Annie has not wanted to go out and no longer wants to hunt under the name of collecting animal information.
The main reason is that she is tired of eating those animals...
"Or what if we go fishing after lunch?"
On duty today, Galen, who was on duty and was playing with the guard and accompanying him, quickly gave another suggestion.
"No... the yacht was not repaired... Aunt Doug also transferred all the transport ships..."
The newly built yacht dedicated to the head of state was almost sunk by the other party's decisive yacht, and it was still lying in the repair shop when Little Annie and the others were going to sea for a trip.
When Anne thought of this, she felt a burst of annoyance!
Even she didn't expect that the big guy, who was about the same as a whale, was so strong that he had bone spurs on his body. He suddenly made a big hole in her new yacht, but it was very dangerous that her yacht had its own flight function, and it didn't sink into the sea in the end...
Now, if you drive a transport ship, it is not impossible.
But... the deputy chief Doug, who was guarding against Little Anne like a thief, had already dispatched all the transport ships to transport supplies in this busy period, and even one of them was not left behind!
"Then let's change the gameplay? Use the vengeful spirit fighter to fight that kind of dinosaur-like monster?"
In the sky of this Haven Star, there are often dinosaur-like creatures flying with huge wing membranes to hunt. Their meat is very delicious. After eating Garen once, he has long thought of trying to get one or two more ends to get meat!
However, their number does not seem to be very large. After hunting some of them before, the federal government issued a decree to list them as a rare species and it is strictly forbidden to hunt and kill them at will!
He might not dare to poach himself, but if he fools his little head of state, then no one dares to speak out, right?
The highest officials eat a rare animal. I wish they wouldn't dare to come out and say anything? At most, they will eat it secretly and not let those people find out!
"No! The flying dragon that was smashed by lasers or electromagnetic shells is not delicious at all! You guys can't fly!"
After glanced at Garen who was smiling disdainfully, little Annie snorted coldly and stopped looking away.
This bastard actually wants to deceive himself into catching Feilong!
She also knows that wild flying dragon is delicious, but the other party can fly and it is difficult to catch! If you kill it directly with an air-to-air weapon or a rifle, the blood will solidify into the muscles, seriously affecting the taste!
The last time, she flew out of the armored transport ship by herself, and used magic to capture one of her head alive before she could taste the deliciousness.
Although their meat is delicious, it is very tiring to catch it...
It's troublesome to think about it, so she doesn't want to go!
“Huh?!”
Little Annie, who was swaying on the swing in a princess dress, suddenly felt something, raised her head, blinked, and looked at the sky above her head.
There, she seemed to sense a trace of malice that seemed to be there? The feeling was very weak and there was no threat... But, there should be some bad guys who were trying to make her own ideas?
"What's wrong?"
Seeing the reaction of his head of state, Galen also looked up at the sky.
Then, he felt very puzzled. There was only a blue sky above, and there was no cloud... The weather today was very good. It was a good weather suitable for barbecue and picnics in the courtyard, drinking, chatting and bragging. What's so surprising about this?!
"Well...you go and tell Aunt Ge, and said: Tonight, that guy and bad guy are coming to rob us! Let her be ready soon!"
Finally, the idle little Anne, who found something from her perception, jumped off the swing excitedly and ordered Galen inexplicably.
This is really great!
Just when she was bored, a group of lifeless villains came to her to play with? So, maybe she has fun to watch tonight?
"Really or not?"
After a moment of silence, Galen quickly put down the skewers in his hand and kept looking up.
The sky is still the same sky, Hawenxing is almost the same as the earth, and has a blue sky; the clouds are still those clouds, and he didn't see any difference? How could Little Annie be sure that those bad guys will come tonight? Is the humanoid radar like a magician so powerful?
"Hey? Chief Doug? I'm Garen! This is what happened..."
Although he was puzzled, Galen honestly took out his communication equipment and directly contacted Doug, who was working in the command center of the military base outside the City of Hope.
"Yes, it should be the group of ghost pirates I mentioned before. I'm not sure... Anyway, it was Chief Anne who asked me to notify you... That's right, that's what it should be!"
Chapter completed!
