Fleeting Time, a month passed in the blink of an eye.
In the Milky Way sector, the Red Alert Empire once again took over many small star systems, expanding its territory to a range of fifteen thousand light-years.
They relied on Hyperspace Teleportation Devices and the spatial technology of the Qiluo Civilization to shorten the vast distances. Otherwise, even ten thousand years would be insufficient for Warships to traverse such immense distances.
Some minor troubles had arisen in the meantime. For instance, various Universe species residing on certain planets expressed their desire to travel to other planets for learning opportunities. As an Empire, this was a standard request.
Such situations were common in the Rota Empire. If the Red Alert Empire couldn’t even accommodate this minor issue, then even with the suppression of the Red Alert Base, it would be impossible to keep a planet eternally obedient. Rebellion would only be a matter of time.
This matter was reported up the chain of command, proving so complex that even the Human Emperor couldn’t decide. In the end, it was brought before Su Chen.
Su Chen glanced at the report and simply replied, “Granted.”
The Red Alert Empire was destined to be a powerful empire possessing at least one Large Galaxy. If they dared not even undertake such trivial matters, what was the point of aspiring to be an Empire? They might as well just be a land-ruling Emperor on their insignificant plot.
Even if these Universe species had been humanity’s enemies, they were now vassal species of the Empire, with certain rights as residents.
After receiving the reply, these Universe species finally were at ease, realizing that the Red Alert Empire didn’t intend to annihilate them completely.
Their actions were a mere probe, and they were satisfied with the response. Thus, Universe species from various planets began interplanetary interactions.
This included the Empire residents on Earth - Earthlings, Lunar people, Mutant Beasts, and Mutants. They left Earth en masse, significantly reducing the planet’s population once again.
With the benefits provided by the Red Alert Empire, Earth’s people were industriously increasing their numbers, knowing the rewards for procreation were generous.
“Yuwei, we’ve almost explored the entirety of Earth. Shall we change the scenery and go somewhere else?” Su Chen asked after finishing his three rounds of games for the day, approaching Leng Yuwei.
Leng Yuwei, engrossed in some documents, lifted her head upon hearing this, her captivating face revealing a smile. “Sounds good, where to?”
“Let’s head to Maple Forest Star. I’ve heard the maple forests there are spectacular, boasting more varieties than on Earth. It’s a planet earmarked for development into a tourist destination.”
Su Chen had a rough understanding of the planets under his control. As an Emperor of an Empire, it would be inappropriate to be ignorant about these matters.
Dividing one's body and consciousness into seven parts, awaiting resurrection—such a technique was even beyond Les.
Les could only preserve his consciousness, then inhabit other bodies, gradually cultivating and restoring his peak condition.
If the Constellation-level Les couldn't achieve this, then what was the level of this woman?
Regardless, Leng Yuwei was now his woman, and no matter the identity of that woman, they were destined to be enemies!
"I've already summoned my subordinates here; we're not the main force this time."
Periodically, Su Chen noticed a rapid increase in the strength of his forces. Naturally, the overall strength of the entire Red Alert Base was also swiftly rising. The combat laboratory would often develop new technologies to enhance the capabilities of the Red Alert Base.
For instance, they had recently developed the Stellar Spacecraft Carrier!
This was an upgraded version of the Aircraft Carrier, capable of traversing the universe, akin to an Aircraft Carrier within the cosmos.
The Stellar Spacecraft Carrier could carry warplanes and Mechas designed for combat in space. These weapons, developed later, were not outcomes of System upgrades!
In other words, in this aspect, the combat laboratory had temporarily surpassed the System.
After all, the System upgraded based on the Base's overall strength, having a limitation. But the results from the combat laboratory could be used directly, which was much more convenient.
Constrained by the Base's overall status, the System couldn't upgrade the Mechas to fight in the universe, but the combat laboratory had achieved it.
Pleased, Su Chen granted a day off to all members of the combat laboratory for them to relax.
Unexpectedly, this order was met with opposition from all the laboratory members. For them, developing new technologies was a reward in itself.
A day without research felt uncomfortable to them.
As Su Chen continued talking with Leng Yuwei, a mournful voice echoed throughout the entire planet: "My disciple, you died so miserably! Rest assured, I will make the inhabitants of this planet accompany you in death! And the murderer who killed you, I will never let him go!" (To be continued)
