The Empress is assassinated!

Just as the Mole hid on the back of the asteroid belt meteorite, and the three of them were huddled in the escape pod and fell asleep, the entire New Eden world was in chaos.

Empress Jameel, the most powerful and ruling the strongest empire, has been assassinated! This is not speculation, it was publicly announced by the Imperial Government.

On July 20, 121 AH, the Emperor and the Flower Princess Jin Yulan were kidnapped by their entourage, and the escort tried to capture the man named Edmund Edmund . When Dantès was a Federation clone pilot, he detonated a bomb hidden in the Emperor's Throne in a frenzy, causing a chain explosion in the power core of the super flagship, blowing the entire flagship and the nearby convoy to pieces.

The Imperial Navy has sealed off the system where the incident occurred, and various experts are on the scene to conduct a careful investigation. Based on the scale and intensity of the explosion, it is unlikely that the empress, princess, and kidnappers will survive.

The Imperial Privy Council and the Council of the Faithful are urgently negotiating, and if the emperor is not found within 24 hours, an extraordinary meeting must be convened to elect a successor from among the five electors.

This announcement is not long, but the content has attracted close attention from the Federation, the Republic and the Ministry of Unification, and even a bit like a great enemy, they have announced the closure of the borders, especially the Republic, and sent all three dreadnoughts to the border system.

This is not the first time an emperor has been assassinated, in fact at least 11 emperors have died in the history of the empire. But this time it's a little different, the assassin isn't an internal faction within the Empire, nor a rebellious slave, but a Federation clone pilot.

If someone were to take advantage of this, war would probably come as soon as it was called. If the empire and the federation fought, it was basically impossible for the republic to sit idly by, and the War of the Three Kingdoms would resume.

Faced with such a complicated situation, the top of the Ministry of Integration reached a consensus as quickly as possible: first stop the outbreak of war at all costs, and then investigate the truth, arrest the murderer, and if the kidnappers are still alive.

In fact, the last thing I want is the Union and the Republic, as long as the war is together, no matter whether you win or lose, no one will be comfortable. The Confederations and Republics, which had grown rapidly over the years, suffered more than the lifeless and large empires.

Strange phenomena have happened, almost no one cares why the empress was kidnapped, how the kidnappers got on the emperor's ship, and even the emperor's life and death no one cares, everyone only cares about the movements of the officials of the Ministry of Integration and the attitude of the three governments.

The media of various countries have also received serious warnings from their respective governments, and no one is allowed to write nonsense and intensify the contradictions. The media also know the severity, and they cannot afford to provoke war.

But you can't pretend to be deaf and dumb about this incident, and just talk about the kidnappers. Compared to the governments of various countries, it seems that there is only this Edmund. Dantes can make a fuss casually, and no one cares whether he lives or dies.

As a result, Dantès became the most versatile kidnapper in the history of the New Eden, and some media speculated that he was the one of the Bloodfighters, because the first thing Empress Jameel did when she first took office was to eliminate several Bloodraider bases entrenched on the borders of the Empire, causing them to lose a lot of money. In the nature of madmen, it makes sense to send someone to assassinate the Empress.

Some media speculated that the kidnappers were from the Republic of Uruk, and that Dantès was a deep spy of the Republic. Using the status of the Federation to infiltrate the territory of the empire, he kidnapped the emperor by surprise, and saw that he could not escape, so he was simply burned.

There are also media who feel that they can't just focus on the outside, and the internal empire is not monolithic, and the contradictions and disputes are more acute. Every time the emperor is assassinated, there are almost the shadows of the five electors behind him, and no matter how dangerous he is in the face of power, he can ignore it, and this reason is even more tenable.

As for how an ordinary clone pilot could be a bloodraider and a spy of the Republic, and how he got in touch with the Elector family of the Empire, no one can tell a clear line.

Judging from the information available, Dantès's background is very simple, first served in the Federal Navy for five years, then retired due to disability, and later participated in clone pilot training, and then became a free explorer, wandering the border galaxy all year round, anyway, it is recorded in the information of the Ministry of Unification.

Is there a secret or not, that's a must. Natalia's identity is only the result of reassembling the information that Hong Tao brought back, and those materials are all semi-public, and they are not confidential. Since it is made up, no matter how meticulous it is, it is not true, it is nothing more than a Mengyimeng identity scanning system and a background database.

Usually no one notices it, and no one will try to check it. But when this person becomes the main suspect in the kidnapping of the emperor, let alone careful comparison, no one will be annoyed even if all the data since the establishment of the Unification Department are checked one by one.

This check is all exposed, and it is worth Edmund. Dantes's files are all forged, the technique is very ingenious, except for the name, all the experiences are almost true, and they are all borrowed, one east and one west are pieced together from other people's experiences, the truth and the false are mixed together is very confusing, even the data master of the integration department is also dizzy.

The Ministry of Integration did not protect the shortcomings, happily admitted the mistakes in the work, and at the same time informed the three governments of the results of the investigation. It's not that the Integration Department is really selfless, but it doesn't dare to hide it, for fear of drawing the fire on itself. If this leads to the dissatisfaction of the Empire with the Unification Department, it will be a big problem.

Whether Empress Jameel is alive or dead, whether Dantes is still alive or not, the Unification Department immediately consulted with the representatives of the three governments, and the result is that no one cares.

The representative of the empire forwarded the new emperor of the empire, Younis. Adesarpo meant that the Empire would independently investigate the assassination of the Empress, and the only thing that needed help from outsiders was to suggest that Edmund be killed. Dantès is listed as a Class A wanted criminal by the Ministry of Integration.

The representatives of the republic did not mention the kidnappers Dantès at all, they were concerned about whether there would be a war or not. At present, there are many warships on the border between the two countries, and the slightest misfire will be out of control.

After receiving a written guarantee from the Empire, the small diplomat of the Sebisto tribe left a room full of officials and representatives of various countries and returned to the capital of the Republic to find the Prime Minister to sign it, without a moment's delay.

The representative of the Federation really wants to figure all this out, and wants to provide the necessary assistance to the Empire, after all, one of the protagonists in the whole thing is the citizen of the Federation, and it is really unwilling for the Federal Government not to find out the origin of this person.

Unfortunately, no one supported the proposal of the representative of the Federation, and the representative of the Reich repeatedly stated that the new Emperor and the Privy Council believed that this person had nothing to do with the Federation, and that they did not intend to make any demands on the Federation for this. Therefore, there is no need for federal intervention in the investigation, it is a private matter, unless the federal government has to take the responsibility on its own head.

No matter how nosy the federal government is, it is not willing to bear the suspicion of assassinating the emperor, and since the empire is willing to voluntarily give up the right to pursue it, the federal government is also happy to be idle, and it will not be left alone.

"Your Excellency, according to the Federal Intelligence Service, on the day of the incident, which was also the system where the incident occurred, the four faster-than-light relay stations under the supervision of the Ministry of Integration all failed and have not yet recovered. In addition, the Imperial Navy blocked the system where the incident occurred and closed the stargate without notifying the Ministry of Unification, isn't it a bit inappropriate?"

Watching the tall and thin representative of the empire leave, the representative of the Federation couldn't help but ask the question in his heart. This was not his personal opinion, and the federal government had also convened a secret meeting before he arrived, and the matter was thoroughly analysed before this conclusion was reached.

He said it more politely, according to the speculation of the head of the federal intelligence department, whether there is a person named Dantès or not has to be said separately, whether it is an illusion thrown by the imperial infighting.

With the capabilities of the Imperial Intelligence Service, it is not difficult to create some false identities within the Integration Department. This is true not only of empires, but also of confederations and republics. Therefore, no matter how the non-governmental media speculate, governments have rods and scales in their hearts.

"Mr. Representative, if you insist, I can convene another meeting with the delegates of various countries, relay your comments to the other delegates in person, and ask for answers!" This year's Chairman of the Council of the Ministry of Integration is also a Federarian, but he really has no interest in satisfying such curiosities.
