From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 280 Princess Line

Before receiving the news from the Tower of Babel, Amber really didn't expect that the princess of the Star Dragon Empire would take the initiative to send someone to contact Atlas.

To be honest, he had no intention of starting the 'Princess Line' so early.

In other words, he did not expect to start contacting the two giant Buddhas, the regent and the princess of the Star Dragon Empire so soon.

According to his original idea, he must take the route of 'developing secretly and then surprising everyone'.

The cooperation with the Rubian System Autonomous Government was an unexpected blessing, and it also gave Atlas the opportunity to extend its tentacles into the federal territory.

Although it may be a little ahead of schedule, at least it is still within Amber's plan.

However, the regent and the princess's initiative to contact Atlas was outside of Amber's plan. Although it did not disrupt his position, it did disrupt his original plan.

"Master, it seems you didn't expect Princess Agnes to contact you."

Lilith floated around in the air with the help of the holographic projection device in the cabin, and from time to time she gave Amber some 'Absolute Domain' or 'Blue and White Stripes' benefits.

At this moment, Isabel was still awake in other cabins, so this strong artificial intelligence was a little unscrupulous.

Highlight one very well.

“We at Atlas currently do not conduct large-scale operations within the empire, and we have not published our contact information to the outside world.
So 80% of the time it's someone who is 'pulling the strings'. "

Amber pinched her eyebrows. A lot of things had happened recently, and some of them were too exciting.

Although I am still quite tired, I have seen the various acquisitions completed by Atlas Group before, as well as the recent company account flows and the current capital reserves in the account.

"It's okay, it's okay, what did you just say?"

As a veteran "Tun Tun Rat" player, it is a very healing thing to see more and more cash in the company account.

"Master? What are you talking about?"

"Master, you just said that you didn't expect this situation. So how do you think this imperial princess found you?"

"Bringing strings? But we shouldn't have many acquaintances in the empire, right?" Lilith floated in the air in an unsightly posture and asked with her head tilted.

By the way, the Timler family was messed up by Atlas in the 'War of Three Idiots'.

But then, his illegitimate son rebelled just as Amber had judged.

"I really didn't expect it. Although the company has indeed gone through a lot of things recently, I think it hasn't reached the level of attracting the attention of Her Royal Highness the Princess."

But when I think that the money will soon be transferred away, and then converted into various newly purchased industrial production equipment and assembly lines under Atlas, or the expansion of the mining team and fleet, as well as the continuous replenishment of ground troops. After various combat equipment.

When their head of the family, Ryan Timler, returned to the family fiefdom after the battle, he actually still had thoughts of revenge in his heart.

Lilith's question made Amber silent. It was obvious that this question made him think for a while.

Amber tapped her index finger on the table, and each time she tapped, she spoke a name simultaneously.

Therefore, his nerves are always in a state of tension, which means that when he is alone, he can relax a little.

"It's true that we don't have many acquaintances, so they helped us narrow down the scope."

"Isabel's father, Jonathan Irons, her uncle, Imperial Finance Minister Jacques Fanco, and the Timler family who were defeated by us
These are the only three companies that have the ability to pull strings. "

Amber couldn't help but sigh, and then comforted herself: "It doesn't matter, the money is not gone, but it is staying with me in another way."

While other former allies were sitting idly by, Ryan Timler remembered what Amber had said in his ear at that time, so he sent a message to Atlas with the idea of ​​'breaking the can, breaking it'. Went to SOS message.

And he also waited for Atlas's 'Heavenly Soldiers' before the outer defense line of the family manor was completely breached.

After Randall brought the remaining fleet and a group of newly trained Roma soldiers to fight over, and assisted the Timler family to eliminate the rebels like "cutting melons and vegetables", the Imperial Viscount became interested in Atlas and Amber's attitude completely changed.

The effect of providing help in times of need is far better than adding icing on the cake.

Under the operation of other people who stayed at the Tower of Babel, the Timler family also successfully became a hidden 'bridgehead' planted by Atlas in the empire.

It has also become the only three members of the Atlas Group within the Star Dragon Empire that can directly contact the Atlas Group.

"But among these three families, I guess the Irons family is the most likely. After all, until now, they are still officially part of the 'Princess Party'."

"Master, what do you think is the motive for Her Highness Agnes to suddenly seek trouble? Is it because we are very familiar with Miss Isabel and the Irons family behind her?"

"I'm not sure it won't be that simple." Amber shook her head and continued:
"I do have a bold guess, but I probably won't be able to verify it for a while."

"What guess?"

"Judging from the current crazy mutual infiltration between the Regent Party and the Princess Party, it is very likely that Princess Agnes has learned about the contact between the Regent Party and our Atlas.

Under this circumstance, I believe they will soon find out the forces in the empire that are related to Atlas.

When they discover these situations, they will naturally consider contacting us as a 'third party' to prevent the emergence of some information beyond their control due to the deep cooperation between the Prince Regent and us. "

Amber said what she was thinking in one breath, and then added:
"Of course, this is just my personal speculation. The specific reason may only be known after contacting the 'Princess Party'."

"So Master, are you planning to meet with the Princess Party members?"

"If not, I won't meet you for now and let Shikodi and the others get in touch~
Let them wait for a while, and explore their voices to see if you can learn any key information. "

"Understood, Master!"

Lilith floated in the air and saluted, and then planned to send orders in Amber's name.

At this stage, Amber often issues a general order, and then leaves it to Lilith to fine-tune it and formulate a standardized written document for distribution.

If he were to do this job himself, Amber estimated that he would have to spend a lot of time adjusting the writing standards of the document.

But if Lilith were to do this, it would be done in the blink of an eye.

But Amber still stopped Lilith this time.

"Wait, I'll send it later."

"Is there anything else I need to explain, Master~"

"We have recently established an 'automated information collection network' within the Star Dragon Empire. Have we obtained any important information? For example, the movements of Her Royal Highness the Princess."

The 'automated information collection network' Amber refers to refers to a network composed of a large number of communication nodes deployed in the uninhabited sky of various galaxies in the empire based on Lilith's 'clone' and 'quantum communication entanglement' technology.

These unmanned nodes were deployed bit by bit by taking advantage of the Yuge family's cargo fleet sailing around the empire.

They are not only an important part of the quantum entanglement communication network, but also take care of the work of collecting information on the open network of various star systems in the empire.

Sometimes, the 'Lilith clones' deployed inside these unmanned nodes will even conduct 'active' information collection on some targets.

This massive amount of information will be screened and cleaned in the server array of the asteroid base (under construction), and will eventually become highly credible and usable intelligence.

"Yes Master~"

Lilith's avatar spun around in the air, then landed in front of Amber and began to talk about some recent information, and presented pictures or videos through the holographic projection device.

As she narrated, the recent situation within the Star Dragon Empire was displayed before Amber's eyes like a moving picture scroll.

The old emperor, who had been suffering from illness, has now completely disappeared and stayed in the Grand Palace in the capital every day, 'not concerned with worldly affairs'.

Even the outside world spread rumors that "the emperor may have died".

However, such rumors were gradually disproven after the official released some recent photos of the old emperor.

At the same time, those rumor spreaders were also directly sentenced to death after being caught for "spreading seriously false rumors, endangering the normal functioning of society" and "offending the Holy See and being disrespectful".

On the other side, although the 'Bloody Tuesday' incident has been completely suppressed under the guidance of official public opinion in the empire.

However, those T3-level galaxies in border areas already had problems of one kind or another. When the chess pieces laid out by the Prince Regent in advance were 'activated' a little bit, situations similar to those on Vendée began to appear one after another.

Although the scale of the secession crises in these subsequent galaxies is far from the level of Vendée VI, if left unchecked, big things will still happen.

Faced with this situation, Agnes's method of dealing with it was simple - divide these civilians and then execute those who stood out.

According to the intelligence received by Lilith, in those situations where riots occurred, the imperial princess also adopted the method of 'suppressing riots with force' and strictly followed the principle of 'carrots and sticks'.

A set of "combinations" of force to suppress riots, information blockade, and public opinion guidance were first used to stabilize the situation.

Then solve the demands of most people and find ways to restore public opinion.

Finally, a small number of people will be eliminated to complete the cleansing of the separatist forces.

Under such operations, the Star Dragon Empire, which originally seemed to be in chaos, has become more stable during this period.
