The lighthouse's pillars of light soared into the sky, raging in a dark subspace storm, guiding lost civilizations trapped in darkness to reembrace their race.

The Tiyun Galaxy immediately sent an emissary, wanting to seek the help of the Human Alliance, and with the help of the Alliance, recover the family's former property, regain the peak of its former glory, and once again become the leading family in the galaxy.

A month after the lighthouse was activated, the Fourth Expeditionary Fleet is still rebuilding the Redakti system, salvaging wreckage, emptying the void, and rebuilding forts, space stations, and other defenses so that the remaining troops can better protect the lighthouse.

At this time, the envoy group led by members of the Liu family took a ship and crossed the raging storm and arrived at the Rydakti system.

They are full of hope, looking forward to the dawn after surviving the dark night and the beautiful life that is about to begin, looking forward to them standing above the galaxy again, becoming the envy of billions of living beings, and becoming the noble human elite.

On the edge of the Rydarkti Galaxy, the ships of the Envoys broke out of subspace and into the real universe with a flash of light. The ship immediately turned on the detection array and scanned the entire galaxy, and they realized that something was wrong.

According to the information fed back by the scan, the void buildings of the entire Rydakti Galaxy have been turned into wreckage and completely destroyed, and according to the analysis of the traces of destruction, it has been destroyed for at least tens of thousands of years, but it is clear that more than a hundred years have passed. The warships hovering in the void of the Rydakti system did not have the emblem of the Human Alliance, but a flame emblem that they did not recognize.

These anomalies caused the members of the delegation to look worried, and they were all a little apprehensive, and it was clear that it was not the Human Alliance that activated the lighthouse, but some unknown force.

From their database, there is no match for any families or warlords who use the Flame Emblem.

"They don't look like human alliance ships, are we going to keep in touch?" The captain of the flagship looked at the representative of the envoy - Liu Qing.

Liu Qing is the great-granddaughter of Liu Changfeng, and she was given the position of envoy by virtue of her beautiful appearance and outstanding talent.

Speaking of this Liu Qing, it is not a simple character, her father and mother are both high-level positions in the Tiyun Galaxy. Grandpa and grandma are in important positions, above tens of thousands of people. And Liu Changfeng, who is his grandfather, is really amazing, holding the position of the ruler of the Tiyun Galaxy.

In addition to these direct elders, even her older brothers and sisters, uncles and uncles, aunts and aunts, cousins, cousins, and distant relatives are all people with heads and faces.

It can be said that her family has a random one, and the status she has is beyond the reach of others, and she can't touch the edge of struggle for a lifetime.

The Liu family is the unshakable mountain of the Tiyun Galaxy, and its power is intertwined, firmly controlling the entire galaxy, but anyone who can have a position in the Tiyun Galaxy has to have something to do with the Liu family

This is the Liu family, a family that is so strong that she can ignore everything, giving her the confidence to deal with everything.

According to the elders, if she can successfully regain the wealth and status of the Liu family in the past, she will be a human being in the entire galaxy, and she will be respected wherever she goes.

Most people in the Tiyun Galaxy have always had a bad opinion of the Liu family, but Liu Qing doesn't care about it, she knows that those people are just hated because of jealousy, and the Liu family's tens of thousands of years of accumulation should naturally be high, why should they lose to those guys.

Seriously, those guys should be trampled under their feet for the rest of their lives.

To have the current status, power, and wealth, that is all the struggle of the Liu family themselves. Who makes the Liu family all capable and talented.

Of course, she also has to work hard to complete this task well, impress her family, and let them know that she Liu Qing has grown up.

"Keep engagement, and no matter what, we're going to find out who they really are." Liu Qing's tone is firm, she has lived in an environment full of confidence since she was a child, she firmly believes that her wisdom is enough to solve all problems, and she is full of confidence in her family's influence. "Our Liu family doesn't cause trouble, and we are not afraid of it, no matter who the other party is, we must show this attitude to the other party."

A standard inquiry message jumped in, and when it was clicked, a man's deep voice came from the speaker.

"You have entered the Empire's warning range, please inform your identity if you come, otherwise we will open fire in accordance with Imperial law."

"We're from the Tiyun system." The captain replied as he sent the information data from his own side to the other party.

The other side was silent for a few minutes before speaking again.

"The Human Alliance fell apart 10,000 years ago, and now it is the Galactic Empire ruled by the God Emperor that rules the galaxy."

This news immediately shocked everyone on the envoy's ship and froze in place.

The human alliance has collapsed, and more than 10,000 years have passed.

"How is that possible??" The captain of the envoy ship said in an incredulous tone, "Obviously, more than a hundred years have passed. ”

"The Eternal Night Crisis has disturbed the structure of time and space, causing the flow of time in various places to be disordered, you have only passed a hundred years, but the time of the galactic background, more than 10,000 years have passed, and now it is the age of empires. You are welcome to rejoin civilization, and according to the rules of the Empire's Lost Colonies, you will legally and reasonably have the status of the Empire, and in the early stage, you will also enjoy the Empire's technological tilts and tax deductions. ”

“.”

After some exchanges, it was decided to have a meeting, and the venue was chosen in the reception room of the Celestial-class battleship Victory.

In order to demonstrate the attitude of the expeditionary force in attaching importance to the lost civilization, Li Xin specially returned to the ship from the surface and held a welcoming ceremony with some senior officers of the expeditionary force.

John and several other legionnaires were also able to attend the welcoming ceremony, standing behind the Ancestral Warriors in neatly lit ceremonial armor. They are about a meter taller than the Ancestral Warriors, and if they stand in front, it is easy to block the other party's view, and they are not beautiful, so they stand in the back.

The generals and staff officers of the expeditionary force, the senior administrative officials, and the representatives of the state religion all changed into neat clothes to welcome these lost compatriots.

When the opposing transport boat entered the tarmac, as the bishop, Dassis immediately let the choir behind him start singing, each member of the choir has been specially trained and genetically fine-tuned, with an intoxicating singing voice, their singing is holy and powerful, is the best medicine to soothe the soldiers.

Dassis looked at the members of the envoys who had come down, and some excitement surged in his heart, this is the meaning of our lord's galactic expedition, so that the lost compatriots in the darkness can return again.

Liu Qing and several aristocratic representatives of the envoy group walked down, while the security soldiers and family bodyguards were on either side.

Witnessing the powerful fleet power of the Human Empire, the members of the envoy group have some fears, the power of this Galactic Empire should not be underestimated, and it also has celestial-class warships, which can dominate the galaxy, but I am afraid that the strength is comparable to the original Human Alliance.

The welcome ceremony was grand and grand, which made Liu Qing and the others smile, and it was a good start to make the Galactic Empire welcome.

The next step is to negotiate the issue of Tiyun joining the Empire, which is not much to talk about, and the Empire will give enough support and then demand the implementation of the Empire's code, which is the case in most of the world.

The galaxy that joins the Galactic Empire will usher in an explosion within a few years, and the production efficiency, talent production rate, and conscription rate will be greatly improved. The flow of wealth gives hope that the superior welfare system will allow them to survive a failure and not live on the streets and starve to death, but still have decent jobs.

The institutions of the empire are very superior, and once basic needs have been met, they will be eager to show their worth.

This is the reason why the empire's economy is so prosperous and scientific research projects are progressing so quickly, because people do those things more out of their love than for survival, which are two different concepts.

As soon as he heard the benefits promised by the Empire, the smile on the face of the representative of the envoy did not stop, and the corners of his mouth continued to rise. Their smiles disappeared until they heard that the empire did not allow inheritance, and that relatives were not allowed to be in the same institution, or something like that.

Especially Liu Qing, his face turned black all of a sudden. If it was really necessary to strictly enforce the other party's rules, it would be a nightmare for the Liu family, and it would also be a blow that was so heavy that it was almost unacceptable.

More than 98 percent of the members were cleared out of administrative, military, and other areas controlled by the empire, and could only go to the private fields such as commerce and industry.

"You can't do that." Liu Qingyi said solemnly, "Private property is sacrosanct, how can it be arbitrarily deprived? And taking away the wealth that those people have worked for all their lives, will those people really work hard?? ”

Seriously, Liu Qing can't understand the Empire's approach and let those people earn wealth easily, so will they still struggle? ? They should be allowed to work all day long, but they can only have food and clothing, so as to ensure production efficiency and maximize their value.

It is also necessary to establish a strict class system to maintain those who shed blood for the empire and are willing to support the god emperor, so that they can get glory, wealth, and power, and only in this way can the empire be stable.

"You don't need to worry, Miss Liu Qing, the Empire's system has been tested, and being able to rise so quickly and regain control of the galaxy is enough to prove that the Empire's system is flawless." As the archbishop, Deasis said with a smile, "Our lord has already thought of everything, and as long as he follows his will, human civilization will prosper forever." ”

Liu Qing tried to convince these people, and soon, she found that that the idea was whimsical, and the other party was not willing to back down on this issue at all, at most, he was only willing to give the Liu family some time to retreat.

Speaking of the back, Liu Qing directly broke the defense, thinking that it would be a difficult negotiation and tugging battle to find the Human Alliance to return the Liu family's previous property and status, and she would make a generous statement for the interests of the family.

But now, she is facing a fanatic, superstitious, and abolish the inheritance system, not only failed to get back the previous wealth of the Liu family, but also posted the Tiyun galaxy upside down.

"The Empire does not allow any form of inheritance, Miss Liu Qing. This was based on the two principles of the flow of wealth in society and the fact that the empire belonged entirely to the god-emperor. ”

Looking at the negotiator who was talking eloquently, hoping that she would accept the status quo and cooperate with the empire to transform the Tiyun galaxy, Liu Qing stood up with a slick.

"With all due respect, your empire is nothing but the dictatorship of tyrants, and the Tiyun system will never accept such conditions, and we will always insist on one thing, which is that private property is sacred and inviolable."

This sentence made the aristocratic representatives next to him directly dumbfounded, this is especially to kill their rhythm.

Li Xin, who had been trying to keep his smile on his face, disappeared when he raised his head to look at the other party.

The smiles of the other imperial officers also disappeared in an instant, and their eyes showed even more anger, and Liu Qing's words had already touched the bottom line.

In the past conversations with lost civilizations, even if there were contradictions and unhappiness, as long as they were not crazy, both sides would basically maintain politeness.

As for why, just look at the battleships suspended in the void. As long as the Empire wants to, destroying a galaxy is as simple as eating and drinking.

Li Xin stood up, walked up to Liu Qing in front of the angry bull, and looked down condescendingly at this woman who dared to blaspheme their highest faith, "The Divine Emperor has kindly taught us to patiently guide those lost compatriots and not to increase the killing. Sincerely apologize to the Emperor and ask for His forgiveness. Then turn the page on this matter, don't do it again next time. ”

The rest of the envoys gave Liu Qing a look, and the aristocratic representative standing next to her tugged at her long sumptuous dress, hoping that she would come down the steps.

But who is Liu Qing, the most favored existence of the Liu family, she was born to stand on the top of the mountain, and it is her privilege to be satisfied with everything. In her mind, this universe exists for people like her.

The reason why her politeness, her approachability, is so good is because in her bones, these are just a gift to those who are not as good as hers.

And now, someone arrogantly asked her to bow her head and apologize.

Sorry, can't do it.

Instead of following Li Xin's words, Liu Qing tried his best to look at the other party, and said word by word, "I'm not wrong, your God Emperor is a tyrant, and the Tiyun Galaxy will never succumb to the rule of a tyrant. ”

With a snap, Li Xin slapped Liu Qing's face, which instantly made her red and swollen.

"This slap is your punishment for disrespecting the God Emperor." Li Xin retracted his strength, otherwise with his strengthened body, half of this guy's face would have to be shattered with a slap.

Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he looked at Li Xin with incredible eyes.

As the daughter of the Liu family, she was once wronged by such a grievance, and she was slapped twice in a row in front of the public.

The reason was just because she scolded the ruler of the empire as a tyrant, and she was treated like this, and she was so angry that her body trembled directly.

Those bodyguards wanted to come up, but Li Xin's look made them so frightened that they didn't dare to move, and the others didn't dare to breathe. They knew how terrible those guys behind Li Xin were, as long as the other party gave an order, none of them would survive.

However, this slap did not sober up this pampered woman who has been happy with everything since she was a child.

Liu Qing's face showed a crazy look, and he roared hysterically, "You dare to talk to me like this, and dare to beat me, what are you?" Do you know who I am? You tyrant's lackey, you. ”

Syllable!!

The crisp slap sounded again, echoing in the reception room.

Li Xin gave her a slap again, and this slap was heavier, half of Liu Qing's face was shattered, and most of her teeth were lost.

"Blaspheming my emperor, you dare to talk to me so hysterically, I don't know whether I am alive or dead." Li Xin looked down at this stupid woman condescendingly, "I don't need to know who you are, your wealth, your family, to me is just an existence that can be erased with a word." Thou shalt be glad that I met me, taunt him in the presence of an imperial general, or none of you will want to leave alive. Even your family will be crushed, and history will not even record your stupidity. ”

"I'm not sitting here because of your stupid family, or because of the stupid magnates you represent, I just care that innocent people don't die because of it. Go back and tell your masters, either raise the banner and resist, or do the edicts of the Empire. If I choose the former, I'll go there myself. Li Xin looked at Liu Qing again and said word by word, "At that time, I won't hit you in the face, but hang your entire head on the tower." ”

Leaving these words, Li Xin turned around and left, leaving only the frightened many representatives, Liu Qing was even more frightened and trembled all over, and she didn't dare to say another word, she knew very well that the other party would definitely honor those words.

The negotiations ended due to Liu Qing's stupidity, and the senior officers of the expeditionary force got up to leave, and the reception room soon became empty.

The expeditionary force did not drive away the members of the legation, but it did not give them a good face again.

When the envoys left the reception room and returned to the boarding deck, every officer and soldier along the way looked at them with murderous intent and hatred in their eyes, if it weren't for the restraint of the higher-ups, they were afraid that Liu Qing would be dismembered.

One of the most taboo points in the empire is blasphemy against the God Emperor, especially in the expeditionary force with the most fanatics, fighting for the God Emperor is already the biggest obsession of the expeditionary force soldiers.

Li Xin's two slaps still saved the envoys to a certain extent, but if they changed their impulses, the members of the envoys were afraid that they would not be able to find all the corpses, and even their ships would have to be killed with one shot.

When leaving, the envoys were given a notice.

The proclamation is simple and straightforward, either do as the Empire asks or die, and when the Empire's army descends on Tiyun, all the magnates and those who resist will be punished.

The envoys brought back to the Tiyun Galaxy with Liu Qing and the proclamation, who had broken half of their faces, and poured a bucket of cold water on the excited magnates. I don't know who leaked the secret, but the content of the negotiation flowed out, and the people at the bottom were all looking forward to it, much more excited than the lighthouse was lit.

Watching the collapse of the many families that are high above makes them feel inexplicably very happy.

No matter what the rulers choose, the end result will be the collapse of the family, and the power and wealth of the past will be wiped out in a very short time.

The ghoul stars of the Milky Way.

After a period of arduous conquest and fighting, the Third Expeditionary Force fleet finally arrived in the Starr system, where the lighthouse is located.

The Vortex Curse of the Salva System is just the beginning of a nightmare on this journey, and the Third Expeditionary Force encounters more and more terrifying things along the way, all kinds of ancient relics or curses from the deepest parts of subspace, and some raging ancient dependents.

To make matters worse, they also encountered several mutinous giant sapients.

These sapient machines escaped the cleansing of the Human Alliance among the ghoul stars, but were completely distorted by the pollution of the subspace, becoming strange monsters made of flesh and machine, roaming the void and devouring world after world.

The Third Expeditionary Force fought a fierce battle with them before they were finally wiped out.

Along the way, the people of the Third Expeditionary Force finally experienced the horror of the ghoul stars.

However, arriving in the Starr system does not mean that the journey is over, and the Third Expeditionary Force has encountered more serious problems.

Time in the Starr galaxy seems to form an eerie closed loop, restarting every other month.

Five thousand six, brothers, ask for a ticket, come again in the evening, activate the fifth lighthouse first.
