Chapter 787: Chapter 434, Assassination_3

The Planetary Governor was, of course, appointed by the Empire to exercise imperial power on the planet. However, the more important role of the Planetary Governor was to represent the rights and interests of the planet’s local populace; without resolving these, the re title of ‘Governor’ was insufficient.

But for the head of the Star Sector, the title alone was enough.

In normal circumstances, if the head of the Star Sector died, the Star Domain Governnt would just appoint soone new to fill the position. Although individuals differ in capability and the networks they’ve built, in the end, the function they perford was consistent.

But now, with communications cut off, a new head of the Star Sector couldn’t be replaced.

And with the existence of the head of the Star Sector, which had unified the Purple Horse Sector, things started to fall apart without him.

They found it very difficult to produce a new leader from within their midst in a short ti period.

And even more events unfolded within Baishuo Star.

The governnt of Baishuo Star was, of course, controlled by the Governor of Baishuo. Although he listened to Zelos quite a bit, he wasn’t dead, and the governntal structure of Baishuo Star hadn’t collapsed; it wouldn’t just crumble because of Zelos’s death.

However, assassinating Zelos was evidently just the beginning.

Soon, soone from within the rioting populace stepped forward to take responsibility for Zelos’s death.

It was an organization that called itself ‘The Party of Salvation.’ They took the slogans from the previous protests as their manifesto, clearly defined their organizational structure, and claid credit for the assassination of Zelos.

They went a step further and demanded that the current governnt step down; they would take its place.

The capital’s riots were never fully suppressed, and even ca close to the governnt offices at one point.

The police were beaten down and disheveled by the mobs.

But all this began to gradually improve after the initial military intervention.

In this matter, Arno had questioned Martin.

But he could not be contacted anymore.

The fact that the Defense Army, previously suppressed and inert, was now starting to mobilize, led both Arno and Amanda to conjecture that sothing had likely happened to ‘Martin,’ signaling a probable failure of the Bureau of Military Affairs’ operation.

The police and a few guards remained steadfast in defending the city, preventing the rioters from breaking in for the ti being; the Defense Army was about to enter the city from outside.

The situation was becoming quite dire.

At this point, both Arno and Amanda were almost ready to decide to abandon the mission.

In fact, with the assassination of Zelos completed, they had already fulfilled the foundational part of the mission assigned by headquarters.

The further challenge of overthrowing the current governnt and establishing a local administration friendly to the Alliance could wait if it couldn’t be accomplished imdiately.

After all, with the Purple Horse Sector scattered and disorganized following the death of Zelos, it would be easy to manipulate later on; there were plenty of tactics still available.

Yet Arno was still sowhat unwilling to let go.

He hoped that his first significant mission could be completed as perfectly as possible.

But he was also very rational.

Seeking perfection in everything could end up causing undesirable outcos.

Now, the most sensible course of action was to move the hard-earned forces developed on the ho planet underground, halt the riots, continue to accumulate strength, and await further instructions.

However, just as he and Amanda had decided to do this, there was a major turn in the situation:

On the third night of the riots, they saw brilliant flashes of light in the sky.

It was in the direction of the Baishuo Starport.

The starport of Baishuo Star was situated in orbit right above the capital, Shuoguo City.

In the early hours of the morning, they received a ssage: Continue to lead the riots, and support will co.
