Chapter 958 Loyalty
When Simon led the team to attack the planet, he received a reply from the Duke's Mansion.
"Accept the request of Li Yifei and others, and let Count Simon temporarily take over the new galaxy. The new galaxy is named... Loyalty and Faithfulness."
Loyalty and Faithfulness, very interesting.
However, no one else had any objection. The name is always just a code name. If you have the ability, you can change it at will.
Simon did not feel anything wrong. He and Virut had a slightly different concept.
Compared with Virut, he believed in his fists more.
Authoritarianism, Simon is more inclined to authority, while Virut is more inclined to power.
Lister is more balanced.
Simon then announced the good news to others.
In front of him was the captured natives of the original civilization.
So what is the point of talking about peace? There is no need.
Of course, the losses were also heavy.
Even if there were six-winged angels leading the charge, large-scale cleaning and attacking tasks would still cause heavy losses to the knights.
Especially the knights of the Blue Star Federation, most of whom were just getting started, and according to the standards of the Great Xia Empire, they were not suitable for this level of battle.
But no one cares. No matter if you are a genius or not, before you show your value, you are just consumables in the eyes of the upper class.
For example, the knights of the Li family, in Li Yifei's eyes, if they have no other identity, can be quantified with money.
What can be bought with money is no different from dirt.
It is very cost-effective for them to buy a planetary system with money.
If there is such a good thing, they will definitely be willing to donate generously again.
Li Yifei smiled happily at the new news brought by Simon. Although he paid a planetary system, it was worth it to be accepted into the Dark Empire.
For people like them, no matter how expensive the admission ticket is, it doesn't matter, because the top resources never lack followers.
"Count Simon, we are willing to donate another batch of materials to help the Duke open up new territories." Li Yifei said again.
This time, Simon nodded in agreement, and he could make his own decision on such matters.
"Believers are the most valuable resource, far more than any other resource.
First, promote faith on a large scale. If there are those who agree, then gradually clean them up and send them back. The empire needs these flesh and blood slaves."
Simon's order was cold-blooded and ruthless, which made the excited Li Yifei sober up a little.
Although the capitalists of the Blue Star Federation also eat people, the destruction of life is still a small-scale incident.
But the Dark Empire is different. They do not hide their greed for flesh and blood at all.
The living have their uses, and the dead have their uses. The main one will never be wasted.
The more naked bloody rule seems to remind them not to fall into the class.
With the cooperation of the Blue Star Federation Dark Faction, the task of occupying the new planet progressed quickly.
After losing the dominance of space, most of the high-level people of the native civilization surrendered, and the few who were still resisting could not organize a large-scale resistance.
Even if they have a large number of weapons and some productivity, they have no power to resist the knights.
The knights galloping in space entering the planet are completely a dimensionality reduction attack.
Soon, order was restored in the major cities. From a purely ruling perspective, the exploitation of the Dark Empire was not as great as that of their original government.
The tax rate was low, the law was fairer, and the number of officials was smaller. After the production was restored, the natives of these original civilizations were shocked to find that their living standards had actually improved.
All kinds of welfare that their own government had not realized were realized after the invasion of alien civilization, and even the Internet control was relaxed.
If they had not seen the knight mecha flying outside, they would have thought that everything was a dream.
For a while, the natives of the original civilization had mixed emotions.
Resist... or not resist?
Is the resistance to go back to 996?
The only thing that made them uncomfortable was that almost all communities, city squares and public places had erected various statues of gods.
Then there were priests wearing mechas to spread doctrines everywhere, although occasionally extremists would attack these priests, and then a violent priest movie would be staged on the spot.
Although the laws were loose in ruling, the implementation was absolutely strict.
Some people were dissatisfied, but under the carrot and stick situation, everyone remained silent.
Very strangely, the colonization behavior entered the stable transition stage very quickly.
"It should be because of the division of interests. The empire did not wantonly encroach on the original interests of ordinary people, and even broke the original class and gave them some benefits.
Individuals are blind and realistic. Except for some emotional difficulties, it is not that difficult to accept a new ruler." Simon rarely said some profound words.
Li Yifei and others nodded repeatedly. The Blue Star Federal Government has a lot of colonization experience, but it has never been so smooth.
They discovered a new life planet, not to do charity, but to help backward civilizations?
In fact, massacres are the norm.
Therefore, such peaceful distribution is really rare.
"Now the situation is stable, only daily intensive maintenance is needed.
The Duke has already called us and asked us to go back to accept the reward."
Simon announced the latest order from the rear.
This is also very common. Like Li Yifei, he still needs to go back to receive normal knight training and strive to enter the field of knights as soon as possible.
For them, turning to the Dark Empire, extraordinary power is also one of the very important reasons.
Everything was ready, and they began their return journey.
If they did not consider smuggling supplies, the normal flow of people would not be difficult for them.
After all, the Sirius and Pegasus galaxies were still part of the Federation in name, and everyone just had differences over the federal system.
However, this time, they found that the main entrances and exits were guarded by knights from the sacrificial civilization.
Obviously, these were mercenaries hired by the Blue Star Federation.
"Traitor!!" Li Yifei cursed viciously.
Although the loss was only consumables, consumables were also their own property.
Of course, he had no good feelings for the culprit who caused all this.
And in his opinion, turning to the Dark Empire was not a complete betrayal, but borrowing the army of other civilizations was a substantial betrayal.
Under layers of cover, they finally returned to the Sirius galaxy.
This time, the Duke's Mansion finally withdrew from the Sirius Fortress, and a new Duke's Palace was built on a resource star to establish a formal ruling system.
The increasingly regular and stable situation also made Li Yifei and others happy. It seemed that Duke Palmer had already established a firm foothold, which was the best news for them.
While waiting for the meeting, Li Yifei said to his allies: "After the meeting with the Duke, I will go to retreat and train, and strive to gallop in the starry sky as soon as possible."
