Chapter 352 Assassination in a Dark Room!

Even if Atreides suppressed the original Galactic Empire royal family, they could not ascend the throne and become emperor in a short time.

After all, there is a coalition government in the Milky Way that is countless times more powerful than them. It is weird for them to call themselves the emperor of the Galaxy. It may also anger the coalition government and cause unnecessary trouble.

Duke Leto did not have too many ambitions. In his opinion, it is enough to let Atreides exist safely.

"Your Excellency is wise." Duffy flattered sincerely.

Their understanding of the coalition government is limited to the few diplomats sent by the coalition government to carry out missions. They don't know what kind of civilization the coalition government is.

However, if they can think of supporting agents to plunder resources, such a civilization must not be "silly and sweet".

With Atreides' thin arms and legs now, they must do their best to avoid causing dissatisfaction with the coalition government, otherwise no matter how glorious today, it may become a sunset flower tomorrow.

"Since the coalition government is here, let's return to Caladan and hand over Arrakis to the coalition government." Duke Leto smiled. He had wanted to return to Caladan for a long time.

Caladan has abundant grass and pleasant climate, while Arrakis has only sand.

If Arrakis did not produce spices, no one in the galaxy would pay attention to this place. Now that the United Government has come to take over Arrakis, they should naturally return to Caladan.

Caladan is the base camp of the Atreides, and they will be safer there and avoid being assassinated by the Sisterhood.

The holy fire that cleanses everything will rise from Caladan and burn across the entire galaxy, burning the Corino Royal Family and Emperor Padishah to ashes, allowing the Atreides' battle flag to be reborn from the ashes.

Duke Leto was very excited when he thought of this.

In the past, the ancestors of the Atreides family shed their blood on the battlefield and finally exchanged for Caladan, a beautiful natural planet. Now he, Leto, seized the opportunity to sweep across the world and make Atreides the king!

"I will arrange the return to Caladan." Duffy looked solemn. He knew that when Duke Leto stepped on Caladan again, the sun of Atreides would begin to rise.

Duke Leto nodded slightly: "Our time is coming."

The United Government leased 36 super battleships to the Atreides family, each of which could suppress a planet alone.

Except for the one that guarded Caladan, the remaining 35 could hunt down the Corino royal family around the clock.

In this case, the Corino Empire had no choice but to collapse.

With the strength of the Atreides family and their reputation in the galaxy, they only needed to raise their arms and everyone would support them. Even if they did not officially ascend the throne, they could become the uncrowned king of the galaxy.

Duke Leto already had a plan for the future in his mind.

When they defeated the Corino royal family, he would set up a Galactic Council and let the patriarchs of the major families become members of the Galactic Council, and everyone would discuss the future of the galaxy together.

The Atreides family will be the speaker of the Galactic Senate and enjoy privileges in the Senate. Although they are not emperors in name, they are emperors in reality.

"By the way, ask the diplomats of the Union Government for me, when they take Arrakis away, can they leave the Fremen to me?" Duke Leto showed a thoughtful look, clenched his fists, and said with a little trepidation, "The Fremen grew up in a harsh natural environment, and they have the same origin as the Sadokas, so their combat effectiveness should be similar."

"The Union Government only lent us 36 warships. After they take them back, we need a strong army to defend our authority."

The reason why the Corino royal family was able to maintain its rule for thousands of years and wantonly provoke disputes between various families during this period, while they themselves were safe and sound, was because they had the invincible Sadokas Legion.

Although Duke Leto did not intend to oppress many families in the galaxy like the Corino royal family, he also had to prevent others from challenging the authority of the Atreides.

The loser of the battle for the throne is very miserable.

Not to mention the psychological gap that makes people depressed, just a physical destruction is too much to bear.

"I will contact the diplomats of the United Government and try to get them to keep the Fremen!" Duffy also understood Duke Leto's concerns, and he said firmly, "I will never let you down!"

Although the Fremen have been in constant conflict with the Galactic Governor who rules Arrakis in the past few decades, and small and medium-scale wars often occur, the basic need of the Fremen is just a planet with a pleasant climate.

Atreides can fully provide this condition for the Fremen.

Besides, Paul is still the savior in their prophecy. As long as they do a little bit of work on this matter, it will not be a problem to subdue the Fremen.

The key is to let the United Government keep the Fremen.

Duffy thinks this should not be difficult. After all, the United Government's technological level is far superior to theirs, and it is a civilization that develops computers and artificial intelligence. The Fremen have no value to the United Government.

In addition, the diplomats of the United Government have always been easy to talk to, which means that the United Government has a relatively mild attitude towards the Atreides family.

As long as the transfer of the Fremen does not cause trouble for the Union Government, the Union Government should agree.

He was not worried that the Union Government would use the Fremen to make any harsh demands on them. After all, their position as Galactic Emperor was supported by the Union Government.

"Go ahead." Duke Leto nodded heavily.

In the dim room, a thin woman with dark yellow skin crouched quietly behind the door.

This is an assassin of the Sisterhood.

After the Virgin Helen and Padishah reconciled, the Sisterhood immediately launched an assassination operation against the Atreides leaders.

As time passed and the situation changed, the Atreides' defensive psychology would become stronger and stronger, and Leto and other Atreides family leaders might also hate the environment of Arrakis and return to Caladan where the water and soil are pleasant.

The Sisterhood only had Jessica on Caladan. Now Jessica betrayed them. If Leto and other Atreides family leaders returned to Caladan, they would have no chance to assassinate.

"Minister Qian, I'll leave the Fremen's affairs to you."

There was a voice outside the door.

The woman's eyes flickered, and she recognized that the speaker was Mentat of the Atreides family - the legendary tactician Duffy Hawat.

If she could kill Dufe, the Atreides family's galactic strategy would be greatly affected.

However, who was Dufe talking to?

Atreides was only one step away from the Golden Lion Throne, and Dufe, as a core member of the Atreides family, naturally had a higher status.

Why did he use the word "please" which implies a request when talking to this person?
