After leaving the palace hall, Prince Gehari became a little confused.
Of course Gehali understood what his father meant.
——Since he caused the incident, it is his responsibility to calm it down.
Whether he bombarded the concert or targeted Daphne, it was actually his instructions to the nobles below. He chose not to admit it in front of his father, and it was also after careful consideration.
This was attempted murder after all.
No matter who he faces, it is impossible for him to personally admit such a huge guilt; leaving such a handle will do himself no good but harm him.
Moreover, Prince Gehari believes that his men have already taken care of this matter, so there is no sense of urgency at all now.
In fact, Gehari doesn't quite understand now why everyone cares so much about the opinions of civilians.
The army is in the hands of the imperial power. They have an invincible fleet and an empire-wide defense system that can control all the resources of the empire.
The education he received from an early age was how to be a prince smoothly and happily, and how to be an emperor who might be able to reach the position in the future; respecting and recognizing the contribution of each noble, these are the most basic "Tips of Being an Emperor".
The process of realizing imperial power did not involve the participation of the civilian class;
The common people and slaves were ruled by the imperial power and the nobility.
"They're putting the cart before the horse," Ghali muttered under his breath.
So, after Prince Gehari took a shower and changed clothes, he patiently selected a dozen handsome guards and simply brought more than twenty sets of formal attire for different occasions, as well as some emergency supplies.
With the speed of the empire's most advanced ships, continuous jumps and straight-line sailing, the one-way trip to Sakaar only takes five hours.
However, before Prince Gehari had even left his palace, the escort sent by the military was already waiting in a speedboat near the palace module. The supreme commander of the military stationed in the Emperor Star personally came to the door and begged Gehari to speed up.
speed.
Prince Gehari was almost carried directly into the airship by his guards.
The old general was accompanying him, which prevented the prince from getting angry.
"No hurries?"
Gehari frowned and looked at the old general in front of him, and said slowly:
“My father often taught us that we must have strategic determination and do things in an orderly manner so as not to make mistakes while busy.”
The old general smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, the current situation has reached a very critical moment. The New Federal CIA and the intelligence organizations of various galactic powers are trying their best to discredit us and stir up the emotions of the people of the empire."
"It's just foreign countries causing trouble. We need to stay calm and calm."
The old general said firmly: "They are tearing the empire apart, and now the wounds have appeared. The sooner we stop them, the smaller the wounds will be, the smaller the subsequent impact will be, and the lighter the pain will be!"
"Is there any need to make such a fuss?"
Prince Gehari shook his head and said calmly: "Our army is invincible."
But our soldiers are also civilians.
Of course, the old general did not dare to say this, but whispered:
"Today, three-quarters of the political systems in the galaxy are different forms of democratic electoral systems. We must have a sense of crisis. People's dissatisfaction with imperial power can easily be embodied in specific cases.
"With all due respect, are you prepared to deal with the White Ghost's attack?"
"An attack?" Prince Gehari said with a smile, "Does he still dare to attack me directly?"
The old general's Adam's apple trembled, and he pursed his lips and looked at Gehari.
"Does he dare?" Gehari's smile was a little stiff, "He won't do this, right? I am the second in line to the throne, the second in line to the throne of the Sherman Empire, and my mother is an imperial
Today’s distinguished family.”
The old general showed a wry smile.
Gehari raised his hand and rubbed his brow: "Please answer me directly, he will not attack or hurt me, right?"
"Don't worry about this," the old general said seriously, "I have arranged for Lieutenant General Thomas to wait for you at the front. After you and Lieutenant General Thomas meet up later, please follow Lieutenant General Thomas's arrangements regarding security work. Lieutenant General Thomas
You will be an old friend of White Ghost, they have a good personal relationship, and the military will do its best to ensure your life safety."
"Does he really dare to attack me? I am the prince of the empire and the prince who lives in the palace. Will he offend the great Sherman royal family just because of an intercepted action?"
The old general turned his head and looked out the window, losing interest in continuing to chat with the prince.
He suddenly understood.
I understand why something as stupid as the shelling incident happened, and I understand why the smiles of those grand dukes were so bitter when they found me.
…
When Prince Gehari had just left the Emperor Star and arrived at Saka Star in five hours, the news that was trying to be blocked had already fallen into the hands of the New Federation CIA.
Minte City, underground base of the Presidential Palace, meeting room of CIA temporary headquarters.
Sixteen serving and retired deputy directors, as well as dozens of hired imperial relations experts, gathered together through a projection conference.
Allison also participated in this meeting, representing several political bigwigs behind him.
He listened intently to the slightly excited reports of these intelligence specialists, but couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
What does white ghost mean?
Although the CIA is fueling the current public opinion storm and crisis of trust in imperial power within the empire, the root cause is the White Ghost's insistence on pursuing the concert bombing incident.
From an outsider's perspective, White Ghost seems to want this incident to be a big deal.
Of course, Allison is not an expert in conspiracy theory. After careful analysis, he came to a more reliable and logical conclusion - the White Ghost has been dissatisfied with the imperial aristocracy for a long time since the Emperor Star retired. Now he is looking for
Sense of presence.
This is a common problem for almost every young person.
Not Allison, he clearly knows what he wants and understands the responsibilities on his shoulders.
The discussions among these intelligence experts were very efficient.
After all, now, it is rare for them to gain such a huge advantage when facing the empire, and this advantage is fleeting.
"The emperor sent his prince, which means that the emperor has given up the prince's political influence. According to our understanding of the imperial power system, unless the prince can come up with a perfect way to resolve this conflict cleverly, otherwise
He will no longer have any political value."
"The question now focuses on how White Ghost will respond to this incident."
"White Ghost will most likely compromise. Regardless of whether the prince will be forced to move out of the palace afterwards, he is now the second-in-line successor to the empire, and he represents the imperial power."
"But, the white ghost once called the old emperor a fool..."
"That was an act that occurred under special conditions. The planner of that plan clearly succeeded. He alienated the imperial hero who enjoys a high reputation among the people and the imperial representative of the empire."
"What should we do?"
"Has Gehari's character been analyzed?"
"Based on reliable intelligence sources, as well as an analysis of the prince's growth experience and daily behavior... he is proud, elegant, ambitious, irritable, and will be moody when the male menstrual period comes.
"Based on this, we can conclude that he is a puppet prince who is in line with the choice of the Sherman family elite and can easily be abandoned by the Sherman family. After all, they will catch such idiots all at once."
"The White Ghost will compromise... They will meet in about five galactic hours. If the White Ghost sets off from Saka, the time for their meeting may be shortened to three galactic hours. We only have three galactic hours to come.
response."
"Everyone, we must make a decision."
A group of people fell into silence and thought carefully.
A few seconds later, several deputy directors spoke one after another.
Allison listened quietly. He had no chance to speak and was not prepared to express any opinions on this occasion.
In the field of overthrowing powerful empires, these people in front of them are definitely the most professional beings in the galaxy.
Allison had also heard before that the CIA was still evil and seemed to be preparing another plan against the empire, still related to the space Zerg.
But what does this have to do with him?
The voices of several old people kept circling in Allison's heart.
'Congressman Allison, do you know why we give you so many opportunities? Because you are a forerunner and a population replenishment mechanism given by high-dimensional civilization to powerful galactic powers.'
"We will respect your home planet and give you fair, democratic, and free treatment. We have done similar work before."
'Now, you must use your prophet attributes to strive for higher treatment for your home planet. The current development is all in the plot of the game called "Abyss" that you participated in, right?'
Allison did not hesitate and answered in the affirmative.
'Will the Empire weaken?'
'Yes, in the not-too-distant future,' Allison said, 'the white ghost is the key point.'
He is a liar.
In the plot of "The Abyss" that he experienced, what brought down the empire's national power was the insect-burying plan of the New Federation. Within a few years, a large number of peripheral planets of the empire were plagued by insects. After the insect plague, the selfish and cruel side of the imperial nobles was fully exposed, and large-scale wars broke out everywhere.
Players in the uprising and empire camp are busy with endless daily military tasks every day.
And now... the insect burial plan has been exposed by the White Ghost, the empire has even completed the expedition, and the balance of the galaxy has not yet occurred.
Allison can only take a gamble.
He cannot lose value among the core figures of power in the new federation.
As for whether the White Ghost will really bring down the empire...he can only pray now.
"The resolution has been passed, and the sixth plan will be adopted immediately! Please cheer up, everyone, the Empire's territorial defense system will not give us such an opportunity a second time!"
Allison immediately came to his senses and nodded along with the group of people.
This plan sounds pretty good.
…
At a heavy industrial base in the empire, near the factory that provides semi-automatic mechanical guards to the military, there is a hotel in the corner where the network is being repaired urgently.
Several shielding lights lit up at the same time, and seven super-modifiers, four women, three men, sat facing each other.
"This is a good opportunity, Catherine. We can't hesitate any longer. It's despicable to say this, but we must take advantage of the national mood."
"But we are not ready yet. We do not have enough ships and soldiers, and our secret base has not been fully developed. The planetary transformation system will still take a certain amount of time...According to our plan, we must have a sufficiently secretive hiding place.
land."
"There is no need to rush," Catherine whispered, "Everything should proceed steadily according to our plan. If we make a wrong step, everything will be lost, and this flame and hope will lose its meaning."
"Currently, if the conflict is completely ignited, there will be a more relaxed environment for us."
"The people of the empire have been dissatisfied with the nobles for a long time. You have all seen the situation outside the Emperor Star Circle. Wanting to live a decent life is a problem. Once the empire's economy declines significantly, the Emperor Star Circle will inevitably start from the surrounding areas.
The planet sucks blood, and the aristocratic class of the empire is not just those with titles, but also these regional resource gathering types of oppression.
"On these marginal planets, the people who are unable to leave will be completely reduced to low-level civilians who are no different from slaves.
"Everyone has this sense of crisis, which is why a wave of public opinion on this scale has formed."
"Boss, didn't you ask us to study the history of the empire? We found that whenever there are major conflicts within the empire, two situations usually occur."
Catherine asked: "Which two?"
"One is foreign war, large-scale and continuous war, and plundering resources."
"The other situation is the self-renovation mechanism of the empire. A group of nobles will die, release the resources of the nobles, forcibly complete the redistribution of domestic assets, and then launch wars abroad to absorb new tributary countries."
Several people fell silent at the same time.
One person said: "And we have noticed that according to the confidential information we have access to within the super-modifier organization, both of these situations must be carried out smoothly under the auspices of the empire's national defense system. Otherwise, the empire will not have the overall situation."
In terms of resource mobilization capabilities, the star territory that the empire spans is too vast."
"The Empire's entire territory defense system," Catherine read softly, "In this situation, wouldn't the Empire activate this system?"
"That's not very clear..."
"Anyway, let's wait and see and don't take any drastic actions," Catherine said. "Keep an eye on this factory. This will be the core of our future uprisings."
"Super biochemically modified people go to fight the Omnic Crisis," one person laughed, "This is so exciting."
Everyone chuckled, Catherine shook her head slightly and didn't say much.
"Captain, there is a new piece of news spreading widely. According to our intelligence team's confirmation, it is the news being pushed by the CIA... Prince Gehari is about to go to Sakaar, kneel down and admit his mistake to the White Ghost, and ask the White Ghost to come forward to calm public opinion.
."
"Well, will the prince kneel down to the earl?"
"real or fake?"
"It is said that it is already on the way. The news is everywhere now, and everyone is speculating that the man behind the bombardment of the concert is Prince Gehari. He is worried that Daphne will suddenly emerge and become his new competitor, so
The order to kill Daphne was also given in the attack order."
"It doesn't matter whether this is true or not," one person said with a smile, "He didn't do it, so why would he go to Sakaar? If this dirty water is poured on him, no matter whether he has been wronged or not, he has already been punished.
Confirmed."
"Public opinion never respects objective facts, only respects its own emotions."
"The second heir to the imperial power, this target is exciting enough."
"Captain, can you influence Mr. White Ghost and make him be tougher on this prince? That way, this conflict can tear the empire apart even more."
Catherine frowned slightly: "Don't bring my personal feelings into our business."
"But captain, we have to dedicate everything to this cause, including your feelings."
Several people looked over at the same time. Catherine pursed her lips slightly and whispered:
"Sorry, I broke up with him before. I considered that what we would do later would not be a good thing for him. Moreover, he has helped us a lot, from the last time he rescued us to now.
Our technical support... Everyone, we must adhere to our principles, and our organization must be based on fairness and justice."
"Yes Captain, we are too aggressive."
"Don't pay too much attention to what's going to happen next. Keep your eyes on this area. You can't make any mistakes."
"yes!"
…
The third galactic hour after Prince Gehari set off.
A convoy composed of dozens of warships has escorted the heavy battleship where the prince is located to the star field where Sakaar is located.
Gehari wore a light blue dress and was sitting elegantly by the porthole, frowning at the projection screen in front of him.
Lieutenant General Thomas also had a huge headache at the moment.
Because he has a good personal relationship with White Ghost, he was sent to do this obviously thankless job;
Due to the incompetence of our own military intelligence agency, domestic public opinion is already boiling, but the empire's entire territory defense system has been delayed in coming online.
Thomas clearly felt that he was right next to the crater!
Even before His Royal Highness realized the seriousness of the matter, he was still dreaming about how he could handle this incident perfectly and be appreciated by His Majesty the Emperor.
Being able to go back with dignity is the greatest victory.
Will Hanton spoil this prince?
Obviously not.
'We must have a serious talk with this prince. Even if we offend this prince, there is nothing we can do.'
He has many great military achievements, and it will not be easy for the prince to target him.
Lieutenant General Thomas exhaled slightly: "Your Highness, our top priority now is to solve the current problem..."
Suddenly a young school officer rushed over from the side.
"Lieutenant General!"
"speak."
"White Ghost Live Broadcast Preview! He will have a public consultation with the prince who came to Saka about the noble bombardment incident! The Military Intelligence Bureau has made an attempt to block the White Ghost live broadcast room, but because the global defense system cannot be activated, there are reports from overseas
We have received more than 20 cyber attacks from different star domains, and the Military Intelligence System has been temporarily paralyzed!"
Lieutenant General Thomas closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Two hours," he whispered. "Hanton gave us two hours. He used consultation instead of launching an attack. He wanted the royal family to give an attitude."
