Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1065: One Step at a Time (Second Bigger Chapter, Monthly Ticket +)

As soon as Huo Yushen finished speaking, the conference room fell into dead silence.

Because it's too scary, and too unbelievable.

Many people have become accustomed to the peace over the past few hundred years.

Even though there were occasional battles with the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom, the Southern Cross Principality and the Simanelli Federation, they were all minor skirmishes and did not endanger high-ranking government officials like them.

In addition, Huo Yushen almost destroyed the Principality of the Southern Cross six years ago, so these people felt that there was no country in the entire Beichen Galaxy that could pose a security threat to their Beichen Empire.

After that war, the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom, the Southern Cross Principality and the Simanelli Federation did embark on a path of peaceful diplomacy, striving to establish good diplomatic relations with the Beichen Empire and no longer engage in war.

So Huo Yushen suddenly said that one of the countries suddenly suffered a devastating disaster...

Sorry, some of them haven’t even brushed their teeth in the morning!

The two speakers of the Senate had already revealed their contempt without disguising it.

The chief cabinet official looked calm and composed, holding a cup of coffee to refresh himself.

Only the five military chiefs of staff looked at each other and attached great importance to Huo Yushen's speech.

Although they disagreed with him, no one could deny Huo Yushen's military talent.

Chief of Staff Zheng, who was in charge of logistics, frowned and asked, "Inspector Huo, this statement is too serious. May I ask if you have informed His Majesty?"

Huo Yushen said, "I did, but His Majesty did not allow me to get information and asked me to call a meeting to listen to your ideas."

The five chiefs of staff of the military looked at each other, and finally nominated Chief of Staff Zheng, who was in charge of logistics, to speak.

Chief of Staff Zheng hesitated and said, "This situation sounds quite serious. Chief Inspector Huo, if it is convenient for you, could you share the intelligence you saw with us?"

“It’s better to have the original video, so it’s more intuitive.”

Huo Yushen said calmly: "Sorry, there is no video."

"The information was sent back by our people at the risk of their lives. He didn't escape, he just sent it to me in code."

"He had one-way communication with me, and the message he sent back was just a few simple sentences."

The speaker of the lower house of the Senate was so angry that he almost laughed.

"Chief Inspector Huo, so you don't have any evidence at all, but you want us to believe that the entire Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom has been destroyed just by opening your mouth?!"

"It's absolutely ridiculous! How arrogant! How ridiculous!"

The Speaker of the Lower House of the Senate started fighting right away and mocked Huo Yushen.

Huo Yushen doesn't care about these verbal disputes.

He tapped the tabletop with his fingers and said, "What good would it do me to cheat in this situation?"

"The evidence that Speaker Kang wants can only be obtained through the other side. If Speaker Kang sees with his own eyes how our civilians died, wouldn't that be considered factual evidence?"

The Speaker of the Lower House of the Senate is named Kang, and everyone calls him Speaker Kang.

He is usually a man who has the support of everyone in the Senate. Because the nature of his job is to talk nonsense, he is the only one who mocks others, and no one else mocks him.

He couldn't stand Huo Yushen's counterattack, and said coldly: "Chief Inspector Huo, don't think that just because you are directly under the emperor, you can ignore our Senate!"

"You really came up with a brilliant idea this time. You really helped us a lot!"

"I can let you know that our Senate is drafting a law to separate the Special Security Bureau from the direct jurisdiction of His Majesty the Emperor and have it jointly managed by the Parliament, the Cabinet, and the military."

"The Special Security Bureau is a government agency after all. It receives government salaries and cannot be directly under the Emperor."

"The Special Security Bureau must submit performance reports to our Senate, Cabinet, and the military every year."

"All three of us have the power to oversee the Special Security Bureau!"

"Besides, His Majesty the Emperor has his own royal guards, who can fully serve as the special security bureau within the royal family. There is no need for a separate special security bureau."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at everyone with a smug look, and said with a final smile, "What do you think?"

Huo Yushen: "..."

It's true that before a problem is solved, people who are looking for trouble come.

Thinking that the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom was already a hell on earth, and these people were still smugly fighting for power and profit, Huo Yushen felt nauseous.

He couldn't help but think that if Xia Chujian was here, he would have already set up his sniper rifle and started firing...

There were only eight people in the conference room besides him, and none of them needed to change magazines.

Sometimes he felt that Xia Chujian was too murderous, but now that he thought about it, this increasingly corrupt empire really needed a breakthrough...

After thinking about it this way, he felt better.

But he had to deal with these people.

Although he was secretly complaining, Huo Yushen did not show it.

He said calmly: "The Senate can draft various laws. That is your power and freedom. We, the Special Security Bureau, will not interfere."

"But do you really have no ideas about the crisis we are facing now?"

The Cabinet Chief, who had been silent the whole time, then said slowly: "Even if Chief Inspector Huo has evidence and all this is true, I don't think there is anything we can do."

"After all, the other party is dealing with the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom."

"And the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom is not a friendly neighbor to us."

"Does Chief Inspector Huo want our soldiers to shed blood and sacrifice for the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom?"

"I'm sorry, I'm the first one to say no."

The Chief Minister of the Cabinet, Quan Juntai, is the first heir of the Quan family and the father of the Qilin son Quan Yuxun.

His words received a warm response from the five military chiefs of staff.

Chief of Staff Zheng, who was in charge of logistics, immediately said, "I agree with General Commander Quan's opinion!"

"Let's not talk about Chief Inspector Huo having no evidence. Even if there is evidence, what do you want us to do?!"

"We, the military, safeguard the interests of the Beichen Empire!"

"The Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom is not worth our efforts!"

"The Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom cannot afford to take the lives of our Beichen Empire soldiers!"

Huo Yushen said: "I don't mean to use our soldiers to rescue the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom."

"I just want to remind you that, first, we still have a lot of field personnel, as well as expatriates from the Beichen Empire, including civilians, citizens and even nobles, living in the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom."

"Now that the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom is in danger of destruction, are we just going to abandon these people like this?"

"Secondly, there is no need for us to rescue the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom. I will not say that the lips and teeth are cold."

"I just want to ask, once they have dealt with the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom and have freed up their hands, will they deal with our Beichen Empire next?"

"Are you guys not going to make any preparations at all? Are you just waiting for the other side to attack, and then everyone will discuss whether to resist or not?"

His two suggestions really hit the nail on the head.

President Quan's eyes changed slightly, and he looked at the Speaker of the Senate who had been silent. The senators and the Speaker of the Senate were all from aristocratic families.

This term's Speaker of the House of Lords is from the Li family.

He is nearly seventy years old and is a brother of the current old Duke of the Li family.

He usually doesn't talk much. In the Senate, a place where people rely on their talking, he always has the attitude of "a thousand words are not as good as silence".

But when it comes to the final vote or when there is a dispute, he always has the final say.

This time everyone looked over again.

Speaker Li knew he could no longer remain silent.

He looked at Huo Yushen and said, "What will it cost to save those people?"

Huo Yushen said: "...the cost will probably be very high."

"After our Special Security Bureau noticed the changes in the star network over there, we discovered that all the satellites over there had also lost contact."

"Then we sent drones and aircraft piloted by simulated robots to conduct reconnaissance there."

"It's all a matter of time and again."

"This is the last image sent back by the last aircraft piloted by a simulated robot."

He posted the footage of the mirror gallery composed of countless regular hexagons recorded by Meng Guanghui and Kang Shanxing on the virtual display screen he pulled out.

This time, all the talents present were moved.

Speaker Kang of the lower house of the Senate said awkwardly: "Chief Inspector Huo is really good at talking. Isn't there evidence? Why did you say there was no evidence just now?"

Huo Yushen said: "This thing is not evidence in my hands."

"It's just a video. We don't even know where or what it is."

Speaker Kang's face turned red and then pale, but he said nothing more. He just looked at Speaker Li of the Senate, as if he was following his lead.

Speaker Li thought deeply and said, "Is this a corridor of mirrors?"

"Leading to where?"

Fok Yu-shun said: "I don't know. I'm not even sure if this is the Hall of Mirrors."

Although it looks similar, the layers of small regular hexagons stacked one inside the other do look like a corridor of mirrors, but no one knows where it leads to.

Everyone in the conference room watched the video in silence as it was played over and over again until everyone's vision was filled with the constantly rotating hexagonal mirror gallery.

This video finally played an important role.

Everyone decided that it was too late to send troops to rescue, because even so many high-level genetic evolvers in the Special Security Bureau could not break through the opponent's blockade.

What's the point of sending ordinary soldiers?
It would only add to the casualties in vain.

However, we should still strengthen our own precautions.

After all, they don't want to end up like the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom.

Huo Yushen said that the other party would most likely not be satisfied with just the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom, which was a very reasonable strategic judgment.

Even if the other party stopped their attacks after occupying the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom, they could not let their guard down.

Even among humans, there are constant wars and disputes, let alone with this kind of existence from the outside world!
The need to compete for living space is the mainstream at any time and space.

Huo Yushen said to the cabinet's General Commander Quan: "Can you contact the Southern Cross Principality and the Western Manelli Federation through diplomatic channels to see what they think of the Eastern Heavenly Original Kingdom?"

General Quan nodded and said, "I will immediately notify the Minister of Foreign Affairs and ask him to contact the other two countries."

The meeting was adjourned, and the head of the Cabinet, General Quan, did not delay and immediately ordered the Minister of Foreign Affairs to contact the Principality of the Southern Cross and the Western Manelli Federation through diplomatic channels.

As a result, the two countries turned a deaf ear to them and did not respond to their inquiries at all.

This attitude made the top government officials of the Beichen Empire feel terrified.

"Could it be that... the Dongtianyuan Divine Country actually did this on purpose?"

"Secretly, they are colluding with the Principality of the Southern Cross and the Simanelli Federation to attack our Beichen Empire together?!"

“I think we have to be on guard!”

"I agree!"

"Seconded!"

The same conversation continued to circulate and ferment among the top leaders of the cabinet, the Senate and the military.

Three days later, when they finally made the decision to strengthen the Beichen Empire's star field defenses and mobilize the space fortresses above the major habitable planets, all the habitable planets owned by the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom suddenly lost their coordinates in the starry sky.

This is a very strange astronomical phenomenon.

At the beginning, the star that disappeared was the largest star, Da Zang Star.

Then there is another habitable planet second only to Da Zangxing.

This continued day after day, with the darkness encroaching forward like a grain of sand.

After ten days or so, the entire star field where the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom was located disappeared in that space.

It was like there was a brightly lit area on the map, but suddenly the power went out and the entire area became dark.

This was reflected in the starry sky, where the entire star region between the Beichen Empire and the Southern Cross Principality went completely dark.

It was as if all the stars there, whether they were stars, planets, satellites, or meteors and nebula dust, no longer existed.

If you don't use a space radio telescope to observe it, it will only make people feel that there is an extremely huge black hole there.

A black hole that devours all life.

But people who used space radio telescopes to observe knew that it was not a black hole, but an entire star field that seemed to have lost its vitality and died.

Yes, it looks dead.

There used to be several wormhole passages there, but they are now closed.

Huo Yushen and his team tried to send several drones and aircraft driven by simulated robots into the wormhole, but after they had traveled half the distance, they automatically disintegrated in the once stable wormhole.

Huo Yushen watched all this in his Bat Fighter and said coldly: "Seal all the wormhole entrances leading to the star field of the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom."

These wormholes are bidirectional.

At this moment, Huo Yushen was only thankful that when the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom was turned into a dead zone by unknown existence, those guys did not pass through these wormholes in time and come to their Beichen Empire.

He didn't know why, but whatever the reason, they were lucky that they didn't come.

After discovering that all the star regions of the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom were dead silent, Huo Yushen once again jointly reported this important intelligence to His Majesty the Emperor Tan Tai Hongyuan, who was still on vacation on Guiyuan Star, together with the Chief of the Cabinet, the Speakers of the Senate and the five chiefs of staff of the military.

This is no longer a secret and no evidence is needed.

Because anyone who can use a space telescope can observe the huge changes in the star field of the Dongtianyuan Divine Kingdom for themselves.

But His Majesty the Emperor has not responded yet.

This is the second largest chapter, including April monthly tickets worth 2700+.
