On October 8, YC 120, after undergoing a drastic change at the source, the huge giant beast of the Emma Imperial Navy finally revealed one of its five sharpest minions.

Led by the head of the Tashmengon family, one of the five elector families of the empire, Karl Heinrich Tashmongon personally led his direct troops, the Tashmengon Fleet Rapid Reaction Fleet, officially departed from their station, Tashmungon. Completely prepared, they headed to the Domain of the Fountain under the watchful eye of all the forces of New Eden.

In the living room of the Commander-in-Chief of the Fleet's flagship, Karl was having a remote holographic projection meeting with Her Majesty Empress Jamil, the heads of the other four families, the Commander-in-Chief of the Military Department, Admiral Perlim Amyon, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Navy, Admiral Kzdisuendara.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to let the traitors at the source know of my wrath! A star field has fallen, and the star domain governor and the star field garrison fleet commander have all been martyred! What surprised me even more was that the nail planted by the empire actually rebelled! This makes me angrier than the previous two pieces of bad news! How many years! How many years has there been such a large-scale mutiny in the Empire?! Now I have only one request for you: to let everyone know what the fate of a betrayer is! The expression on Empress Jameel's face is a good illustration of what the Emperor's Wrath is.

"But Your Majesty, if you do this, will it cause international criticism? After all, almost everyone's eyes are now staring at the source, staring at the actions of the Karl family master! The most old-fashioned head of the Kadol family, Ulam Kador said with a worried face.

"Master of the Ullam family, isn't the current situation obvious? The face of the empire was now tossed to the ground and trampled on countless feet, and then a lump of slave was thrown on it. Oh! I beg your Majesty's pardon for my rude remarks, but I am very reasonable, am I? Now all eyes are on the Empire's way of dealing with it, and if it is not a warning to slaughter these rebels with a thunderbolt. Then I can tell you for sure that the Mimatar Rebellion of 300 years ago will be repeated again within the Empire. The head of the most belligerent Salam family, Meleme Salaam, shrugged.

"But the head of the Meremes family, if he adopts violent measures this time, it will make the foreign public opinion of the empire extremely unfavorable! Can we adopt methods such as hard labor to avoid passivity in public opinion? Ullam brought out the consequences of doing so.

"Master of the Ullam family, I think you have made a mistake in your interpretation of the canon? The canon doesn't say that we should be tolerant of the traitors! The head of the Coezo family, Atici Coezo, suddenly asked rhetorically.

"Master Atić, I didn't say that! On the contrary, there are countless punishments for traitors in the canon, and I am happy to let them go through them one by one. But Lord Atić, we have to consider the consequences and implications of this. It is not easy for the empire to slightly reverse the image of public opinion outside, and if we deal with those traitors according to the canon this time, we will lose all our efforts! Ulam said worriedly.

"Master of the Ulam family, can I understand your words like that? Because of the betrayal of those traitors, the Governor of the Fountain, the Marquis of Tashmongon, was killed, and the commander-in-chief of the Fountain Fleet, Vice Admiral Ye Suifeng, died in battle. So thinking according to your logic, because of the large number of people and the unfavorable influence of public opinion outside the empire, we can't take some drastic measures against these traitors? The Chief of the War Department, Admiral Perim Amien, asked coldly.

“。。。” Ullam was silent for a moment.

If it really is handled as Admiral Pyrim Amine said, the majesty of the five great families of the empire can be said to be gone. Since even betrayal can be easily forgiven, it cannot be severely punished. So what else is loyalty worth?

"Therefore, these betrayers, whether they are men, women, children, old or young, whether they are the principal and accessory, whether they know it or not, whether they are forced or not, must be treated equally! Let them know that since they have chosen to betray the Empire, the Empire will never be soft on them as rebels! Admiral Pyrim Ami said murderously.

"I agree with Marshal Perimu! At the same time, I feel the need to carry out a purge within the empire and send all those who are closely related to or implicated in the Hedwig family to the gallows! We must not be soft on the betrayers! Admiral Kzdisuendalla said with the same murderous spirit.

Seeing that the two marshals were surprisingly unanimous, the head of the Ulam family had no choice but to seek the help of the head of the Eunice Atezapo family, the family's traditional ally, with a pleading gaze.

"Younis, you know we can't do that. If this continues, the reputation of the empire will be ruined! He said earnestly.

Faced with the plea of his allies, Eunice Atishapo avoided talking about the subject. Instead, he said to Ulam, "Ulam, why don't we listen to Your Majesty and the head of the Karl family?" You know, no matter what decisions we make here, it will be Your Majesty who will be the last to nod. ”

Hearing Younis's words, although everyone present already knew it, they couldn't help but curse in their hearts that they really deserved to be an old fox, and they still spoke so smoothly.

"Karl Qing, would you like to express your opinion? Don't you like to be the first to speak? Empress Jameel looked at Karl, who had been silent.

"Your Majesty, the heads of the family, and the two marshals, I think you can take a look at this before you draw conclusions. This is the intelligence network of our Tashmungon family, gathered in the domain of the fallen Fountainhead. I believe that even you, the head of the Ulam family, will not have any objections to the next measures after reading this information. Carl plugged a chip into the port and said to them as he uploaded it.

"Oh? What's new in the Domain of Springs? Master of the Karl family, your Tashmengon family's intelligence network is really omnipotent! After the outbreak of the rebellion, the Domain of Springs was blocked by the rebels like an iron bucket. The empire can't even get the slightest bit of information from it, and the intelligence network of the Karl family master is really powerful! Ullamkador taunted his nemesis as usual as he opened the uploaded file.

In the next second, a roar resounded throughout the room.

"These damned heretics! Blasphemer! ”
