"Your Highness Loyd, Li Yu wouldn't go back on his word, would he?" Lyman said slowly and leisurely.
"No, I've already reached a deal with him. He will issue a public statent of reconciliation." Loyd swept a glance at his foolish little brother.
"Your Highness certainly has a lot of confidence in him. I'm very curious, when did you establish this kind of friendship?" Lyman asked with a smile.
"Maybe it's mutual appreciation," Loyd explained casually.
He spoke candidly, and the others didn't suspect much. Originally, this Scapegoat Plan was proposed by Loyd.
He had already laid his cards on the table, telling everyone that he and Li Yu had reached a secret agreent.
Li Yu didn't want to Live in constant hiding, and they didn't want to continue wasting ti, so they hit it off instantly.
Lyman was sowhat Speechless. Loyd sure knew how to Embellish himself.
The Emperor spoke up: "Alright, this matter is just a conclusion to the declaration of war, but the investigation into the Other-Dinsional Camp will still continue, just shifting into the dark and becoming a long-term plan."
Bringing in a Scapegoat didn't an the Star Glory Empire really didn't care about this matter, they just wouldn't pursue it with such a high profile anymore.
Moreover, striking at The Forerunners wasn't without gains either. There were conflicts between the two as well.
So this was the reason why the High Echelon didn't reject this Scapegoat Plan.
Fundantally, the Star Glory Empire didn't lose out too much.
"Let's start another topic. The A-Tier Alliance, how should we deal with it?"
Hearing this, everyone frowned. For the past two days they had been paying attention to the ambush battle. The suddenly erged A-Tier Alliance had indeed Caught off guard them.
"The timing chosen by this A-Tier Alliance is really good, as if they pinpointed the exact mont when we temporarily couldn't make a forceful response," Lyman pointedly remarked:
"The action plan was top secret. How did they know the ti of the action?"
"And Dragon Sovereign, he's the Vice President, occupying a high position. He must be a main planner. We haven't fallen into his trap, have we?"
Loyd's expression remained unchanged, as if he didn't hear this sentence, remaining silent.
"Actually, this matter is not hard to deal with," the head of intelligence spoke up, attracting everyone's attention: "This A-Tier Alliance right now is just a loose organization, it will shatter with a single hamr blow."
"They've shaped themselves as positive figures, attempting to use eliminating Terror Lifeforms to gain the Interstellar's favor."
"But what if the very people leading the establishnt of the A-Tier Alliance are not clean themselves?"
"Is there a need for an A-Tier Alliance that everyone wants to beat up to exist?"
"What thoughts do you have?" Loren inquired.
He was full of confidence and said: "Investigate their scandals, or fabricate so scandals, and then use the scandals as an Excuse to pressure the A-Tier Alliance, forcing them to state their position."
"Under the trend of Public Opinion, this so-called A-Tier Alliance will Fall Apart on Its Own."
"However, this matter doesn't just affect the interests of the empire alone. There are other large civilizations as well. We have to pull them in together."
"Scandals aren't enough..." Loren pondered for a mont, and added: "Find the traces of slaughter left by so Terror Lifeform, fabricate evidence, and just say that one of their founding mbers is colluding with the Terror Lifeform."
Lyman's eyes lit up, and he imdiately added: "Why not choose Dragon Sovereign? After he issues the reconciliation statent, use him as the focal point of conflict. While making everyone want to beat him up, maybe we can draw out the Other-Dinsional Camp."
Loyd raised his eyebrows slightly, so thoughts flashing through his mind, and spoke up: "Good idea. I propose making Lyman the main person in charge and liaison for resolving the A-Tier Alliance, to integrate the forces of other civilizations."
As soon as these words ca out, it imdiately caused whispers. The face of the head of the intelligence departnt stiffened even more. He proposed this suggestion just so his Boss could beco the person in charge this ti and wildly snatch a wave of rit.
Who knew Loyd would directly give this opportunity away.
Lyman was also sowhat bewildered. He indeed planned to fight for this opportunity, but he thought his chances were slim.
After all, the battle for the Titan Sanctuary in the Sishank Civilization last ti had completely ruined his reputation.
But he didn't expect Loyd to directly push the opportunity to him. The first thing that popped into his mind was that there was a trap.
But he wasn't sure if it was a trick within a trick. What if Loyd deliberately made him have this thought, and if he directly declined, then he would really lose this opportunity.
"Lyman, what do you an?" The Emperor's gaze was deep, almost no emotion could be seen in it.
Everyone present focused their gazes on Lyman, not leaving him much ti to think.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and then he revealed a confident smile. Who cares if it's a conspiracy! Since this matter was delivered to his own hands, he definitely wouldn't refuse!
"No problem, leave it to ," he nodded.
Clap! Clap!
A faint sound of applause rang out. Loyd smiled and said: "Finally seeing that confident smile on you again, truly makes one nostalgic."
"Thank you for the recomndation, Your Highness," Lyman bowed slightly.
The atmosphere seed sowhat weird. The others secretly exchanged glances, none of them speaking.
.........
"Looks like the response is very good. The number of registered mbers has already reached over eight hundred..." Li Yu glanced at the data on the screen.
"This is only a very small portion. No one knows exactly how many A-Tier Lifeform there are in the entire Interstellar," Husband shook his head.
The several founders were holding a temporary eting, discussing the next direction.
There weren't many smiles on their faces, instead they were quite worried.
"This number is far lower than our estimates, and a large portion of them fundantally won't listen to our dispatch," Japar voiced her concerns:
"That ans, if any problems arise, in the short term we can only rely on our own Strength."
Husband's expression was resolute: "I speculate that there should be a wave of strong backlash soon. Only if we can survive that crisis will we have a chance to catch our breath."
Li Yu ignored them for the ti being, instead secretly using the [Justice League] item. He was actually quite looking forward to this thing.
Although the description said he could only enjoy the Buff after becoming a leader, there was no harm in taking a look in advance.
As the Card disappeared, a prompt that only he could see surfaced.
[Detected that the Host is a founding Vice President of the A-Tier Alliance. Confirm carrier as "A-Tier Alliance"?]
Selecting confirm, a screen unfolded.
[Justice League -- A-Tier Alliance
Host Identity: Founding Vice President, one of the main leaders.
Reputation: Mixed -- The Interstellar holds a wait-and-see attitude towards your ergence, not knowing exactly what kind of impact your ergence will cause.
Number of mbers -- 865
Acquired Buff: [Power of Justice -- You will receive a 1% Strength boost from each mber.]
Please improve your own Status, organizational reputation, and number of mbers to acquire more Buffs.]
A warm current rose in Li Yu's body, presumably the acquired Buff, but currently it wasn't much to look at.
After all, although there were many A-Tier Lifeform, they were basically all low-tier.
Carefully studying the panel, he found he had fallen into a misconception.
It wasn't only the leader of an organization that could be called a leader. With his current Identity, he was inherently a leader, and had also acquired so Buffs.
Of course, this Buff wasn't strong temporarily, but if it developed in the later stages, it would be extrely considerable.
At the sa ti, he sneakily glanced at the others and found that they were still conversing without any pauses or other unexpected situations. It was obvious they hadn't felt this Buff.
But it was also very normal. This item was only targeted at himself.
Status, reputation, and number were the keys to upgrading the Buff, and looking at the description, it seed there was more than just this one Buff.
Li Yu rubbed his chin, thinking carefully.
Suddenly, a screen popped up in front of him. Soone was contacting him.
After thinking for a bit, he imdiately spoke up: "Everyone, I temporarily have so matters to attend to. If there's any action, rember to notify ."
Everyone's expressions varied. Husband nodded: "Alright, no problem."
After Li Yu disappeared, the Stone of Life expressed dissatisfaction: "Good for him, not caring about anything, not asking about anything, just throwing it all to us."
"Who doesn't have urgent matters? There's no need to be so harsh," Japar shook her head.
The Stone of Life sighed, saying: "The situation is urgent right now. We are just Castles in the Air, liable to collapse at any ti. Just feeling a bit irritable in my heart, that's all."
The others expressed understanding, and then continued discussing.
After the Holographic Image disappeared, Li Yu chose to answer the communication. Loyd's big face popped out, seemingly a bit displeased, saying:
"The war is over. We captured the Third Forerunner, and fifty-two A-Tier Lifeform. They will be executed in a few days."
"Next, it's your turn."
Li Yu's eyes widened slightly: "Fifty-two A-Tier Lifeform, you guys are that fierce? You didn't attack The Forerunners' lair, did you?"
Loyd's expression was sowhat awkward, but he didn't expand on this topic, instead saying dissatisfiedly: "I really didn't expect you to take advantage of this opportunity to create the A-Tier Alliance."
Loyd was indeed displeased. The ergence of the A-Tier Alliance was completely beyond his expectations.
"Just an unexpected situation," Li Yu said absentmindedly: "I will issue a statent imdiately, saying I've reached a reconciliation with you guys."
"Finally... can openly appear In interstellar space again."
Before, he had to use a mitic appearance everywhere he went.
It wasn't that he was afraid of the Star Glory Empire, but because the previous situation made it very awkward for both sides.
Once he appeared with his true face, the Star Glory Empire, pressured by their declaration of war, would have to pursue him even if they didn't want to. Otherwise, where would their face be?
Doing it like this made everyone very tired.
And after the incident concluded, whether to investigate and how to investigate, the Star Glory Empire could decide for themselves, without being coerced by the outside world.
"By the way, how are you guys planning to deal with the A-Tier Alliance?" Li Yu then asked.
"I definitely can't tell you the specific details, but this matter is in Lyman's charge," Loyd diverted.
"That Goofball? Not you?" Li Yu was sowhat surprised. According to his speculations, Lyman should lay low for a period of ti after having just suffered a defeat, right?
"I pushed him up."
Li Yu's eyes flickered, sowhat surprised.
Loyd's tone was deep: "This ti it will be a joint action by multiple civilizations, suppressing people with the general trend. The display of individual ability will not be obvious."
"And... I'm almost out of rivals, this is very bad. I need to cultivate an enemy."
Li Yu didn't speak. He always felt Loyd's reason wasn't sufficient enough, but it had nothing to do with him either.
Loyd closed the communication link, his eyes flickering. Actually, there was another extrely important reason, a reason he himself didn't want to admit either.
That was, he always felt this A-Tier Alliance wouldn't be that easy to resolve.
The fundantal reason was because there was a certain person in it.
"Li Yu..."
He muttered softly, unwilling to admit it himself, but this guy was very miraculous. Almost nothing he wanted to do had failed.
Although this ti he appeared to be Live in constant hiding under the pursuit of the Star Glory Empire, essentially he hadn't suffered any losses.
He had even secretly facilitated the A-Tier Alliance. He didn't want to directly confront this guy.
That's why he pushed Lyman up. Even if he resolved the A-Tier Alliance, it wouldn't be that big of a rit.
But if he couldn't resolve it, then it would be fun.
The matter of the A-Tier Alliance caused a massive uproar In interstellar space, however, the developnt of this matter still lacked a general outline.
The Star Glory Empire suddenly released another statent.
They claid that not long ago they engaged in an external war against a certain organization, and captured a main Leader, as well as over fifty A-Tier Lifeform.
They would be publicly executed in a few days, welcoming all friends of the empire to co and watch.
This information caused an uproar. Although the Star Glory Empire didn't claim who that organization was, a na popped into everyone's mind -- Other-Dinsional Camp!
Many organizations and factions that were still preparing to watch a joke were chilled to the bone!
The Star Glory Empire was still the Star Glory Empire.
Captured over fifty A-Tier Lifeform?
Did they wipe out their lair!?
Too badass!
Of course, so people were also very suspicious. They hadn't received any relevant news beforehand.
How did the Star Glory Empire suddenly achieve such battle results?
And Dragon Sovereign imdiately used his personal account to release another statent --
"Due to certain reasons, I had so misunderstandings with the Star Glory Empire, but now this misunderstanding has been resolved...
The Star Glory Empire is an important cornerstone of Interstellar Society. I respect and agree with the Star Glory Empire's principles of conduct."
And the Star Glory Empire's official account also gave a like, expressing their attitude.
The main function of this statent was to corroborate the Star Glory Empire's battle results.
But at the sa ti, it also gave so people a deeper understanding --
Although the Star Glory Empire achieved such significant battle results, they themselves probably also suffered considerable losses, and they didn't completely annihilate the Other-Dinsional Camp.
But overall, the Star Glory Empire should have held the advantage.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be Dragon Sovereign releasing this sowhat weak statent.
These two behemoths seed to have secretly reached a reconciliation.
