Star Iron, Villain Simulator

[21 years old: You spent a year to completely control this large area. ]

[In addition to ordinary resistance soldiers, you also gathered all the orphans whose parents had died and trained them together. ]

[You not only feed and clothe them, but also brainwash them repeatedly.]

[You trained this troop of orphans into a guard.]

【23 years old: You completely control a country. 】

[You used the country's resources to develop many weapons of mass destruction. ]

[25 years old: You have established a vast empire. ]

[While other countries are still relying on human lives to fill the gap, the drones you developed have already beaten the enemy countries to the point of wanting to die. ]

[No one wants to deal with this cheap, high-volume, and dangerous gadget.]

[Your empire continues to expand, and soon becomes a behemoth spanning two continents. ]

【All nations have sensed the threat of the Empire.】

[However, your ability to develop weapons has been maximized with the support of a strong national strength. ]

【Countries after countries knelt before you and surrendered at your feet.】

[30 years old: The last country declared its surrender to the Empire, and since then you have completely unified this planet called Northend V.]

[You were crowned the emperor of the Holy Empire. To commemorate your past life, you named the empire - Rome! ]

[Ruling a planet did not stop you from conquering. Instead, because of the concentration of resources, you quickly built a space fleet. ]

[This space fleet has almost exhausted the few resources of the entire planet. The empire has just been unified, and the remnants of the old era have not been completely wiped out, so they immediately took the opportunity to launch a rebellion.]

[You unceremoniously ordered the newly formed space fleet to launch a commanding attack on the rebels.]

[In just a few hours, the rebels in various places were wiped out. ]

[If you want to avoid being trapped on this planet, you must explore the outside world. Everything before that is a necessary sacrifice.]

[Your tyrannical behavior has caused many people to be disgusted. Seeing that the rebels are too useless, they plan to assassinate them.]

[As a result, every assassination attempt either leaked out in advance or failed on the spot.]

[The most dangerous time was when the assassin had already rushed in front of you and pointed the gun at you. As a result, when he pulled the trigger, the gun in his hand exploded on the spot, killing him directly.]

[It seems that being the best male gunner on the server is not that easy. 】

[After many assassinations, especially this time, you are still unscathed. Countless people began to believe in you fanatically. They think you are the true chosen one.]

[After going through the most difficult period, the space fleet successfully established a base on a nearby planet, and various mineral resources were continuously transported back to the Holy Empire.]

[You have lived up to everyone's expectations and made life better for the entire empire. ]

[The empire's conquest has not stopped. After earning the first pot of gold, you began to build a space fleet and launch attacks on neighboring galaxies.]

[Soon, several nearby star systems were incorporated into the empire's territory.]

[Good news: You have become a powerful interstellar warlord. ]

【Bad news: The Interstellar Peace Corporation has noticed your empire. 】

[Although you are gifted, science cannot deceive people. Due to starting too late, the Empire's warships are far behind the company in terms of advanced level.]

[Once the two sides go to war, the fleet of the Holy Roman Empire will be annihilated in a few hours. ]

[The universe is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak, and the weak have no say. 】

[Now that the company is strong, you can only be forced to agree to some unequal conditions, such as incorporating the empire into the credit point system, or selling mineral resources to the company at a low price and purchasing the company's weapons at a high price.]

[You sneer as you watch the company staff leave with a haughty look on their faces. Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. Today's shame will be repaid double!]

[Then you will turn your attention to the weapons and equipment purchased from the company. It won't be long before you can completely reverse engineer them, and by then there will not be much difference between the Empire and the company in terms of weapons and equipment.]

[Of course, this is not enough. The company's foundation is far beyond the Empire's reach. The other side has two high-end combat forces, as well as elites like the 'Ten Stone Hearts'.]

[The credit point system and the company's branches throughout the universe continuously provide the company with wealth.]

[First, find a way to strengthen our own strength, at least to make the empire equal to the company. ]

[At this moment, a term popped up in your mind - imaginary collapse pulse, a terrifying weapon that is said to be able to destroy half of a galaxy with one shot. Most importantly, this thing can be mass-produced! ]

[Although it is difficult to deal with the envoy, it is perfect for deterring the company. ]

[As a large company with a lot of business, what it fears most is this kind of large-scale attack. ]

[However, it is not easy to obtain the 'imaginary collapse pulse'. ]

[It is definitely impossible to get the core design of this thing. Chadwick is unwilling to hand it over to the company until his death, let alone hand it over to a warmongering person like you. ]

[However, since Chadwick has confirmed the feasibility of the theory, you can completely reproduce the 'imaginary collapse pulse' through the first draft of the theory. ]

[This is equivalent to retracing Chadwick's path through the research process.]

[You should know that the company has been researching for decades, and even though they have perfect research data, they still haven't been able to successfully replicate it. It is expected to take another one or two Amber Ages before there is hope. This shows the difficulty.]

[But just because the company can’t do it doesn’t mean you can’t do it. ]

122

Chapter 122: Toppa comes to your door.

[Although the company has strictly sealed the data and design drawings of the experiment, the theoretical draft is equivalent to the research idea of ​​the project, so it should not be difficult to get it.]

[The difficulty lies in how to successfully complete this project, which is exactly what you are good at.]

[Not long after, the company's representative stationed in the empire also arrived. ]

[The purpose of the company sending representatives is naturally to supervise the introduction of the credit point system in the empire. ]

[When the shuttle door opens, a familiar face appears in your eyes. It is Topa.]

[A hint of surprise flashed in your eyes. The ten people of Shixin are experts in liquidating non-performing assets. Why are they in charge of the Empire's project...]

[Well, the ambitious and aggressive Holy Roman Empire is indeed a non-performing asset. I guess it is only slightly better than Pinocchio in terms of corporate rating.]

[Sending one of the ten powerful Shixin men to station there also counts as Heli. ]

[“Hello, I am the representative of Interstellar Peace Company stationed in your country. My name is Topa, and I am the director of the strategic investment department.” Topa took the initiative to introduce himself after meeting you.]

[You are keenly aware that Topa's attitude towards you is polite yet distant.]

[Thinking of Topa's life experience, she was born on a planet with scarce resources and frequent wars. I'm sure she would be very unimpressed by a warmongering tyrant like you.]

[But it doesn't matter, the meat has been delivered to my mouth, and I will eat you up sooner or later! ]

[After connecting with the Interstellar Peace Corporation, you stopped attacking and began to vigorously develop the interior of the empire. ]

[With your talent, it is easy to reverse engineer the company's weapons and equipment. In less than five years, the Empire began to gradually replace its warships with the same level as the company.]

[However, since Toppa and others were stationed inside the empire, you did not expand your armaments on a large scale, but only opened a large number of military academies and trained a large number of officers for space operations.]

[Then use those new warships as teaching aids for the space army's soldiers to learn and train.]

[Topa really doesn't like you. She won't meet you unless it's work-related. Even if a welcome banquet is held in her name, she won't show up. This behavior makes the nobles, officials, and officers of the empire very dissatisfied, but they dare not do anything to her.]

[It was precisely because Toppa did not run around in the Empire that the information about the Empire's large-scale training of space troops was successfully concealed. ]

[You put all your energy into studying the 'imaginary collapse pulse'. ]

[The most difficult part of scientific research is often asking the right questions, because you are not sure whether the road ahead will lead to a smooth road or a dead end.]

[Chadwick is indeed a member of the genius club. He is the pioneer of the theory of 'imaginary collapse pulse', and you are just a practitioner following in his footsteps. ]

[Chadwick's success shows that the theory is feasible, which is equivalent to knowing the result of the problem. Now you just need to deduce the process. ]

[After three years of dedicated research, you have finally successfully transformed the 'imaginary collapse pulse' from theory into practical application, and successfully produced the 'imaginary collapse pulse bomb'. ]

【At this moment, Topa unexpectedly asked to meet with you. 】

[Your eyes flicker as you try to guess her purpose.]

[After you agreed to her request for a meeting, she was brought to you soon.]

[“What a rare guest, Miss Toppa.” You smiled kindly.]

【“Thank you for approving my meeting request.” Topa was also smiling, but his smile was very cold.】

[“Just tell me what you want to say. I’m busy.” You kept smiling, but your words couldn’t help but carry a hint of arrogance.]

[The successfully developed 'imaginary collapse pulse bomb' is your greatest confidence. ]

[Topa frowned slightly. She noticed your change in attitude. When she thought of the information she just found, her heart sank.]

[But she still asked very firmly: "Your Majesty, we have found that there is a large amount of abnormal capital flow in your country. Could you please explain where these funds go?"]

【You suddenly realize that this is where the problem lies.】

[Developing the 'imaginary collapse pulse bomb' requires a huge amount of money and a huge amount of resources. ]

[As a 'bad asset liquidation expert', Topa is most sensitive to fund flows and immediately discovered the abnormal fund flows.]

[Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Empire's economy is connected to the credit point system. Companies often like to monitor or even secretly manipulate the economic conditions of other forces through credit points.]

[Although you were on guard and did not abolish the original currency of the Empire, you also strictly guarded against the research on the 'imaginary collapse pulse bomb' and used the Empire's currency for all settlements. However, as more people participated, you were eventually exposed.]

You put away your smile.

"The whole world belongs to the king. The entire empire is my property. Do I need to get the company's consent to do anything I want?"

[Topa refused to give in and responded forcefully: "Your Majesty, you signed a contract with the company, which clearly stipulates the upper limit of the total tonnage of space battleships that the Empire can own. The Empire's private expansion of its armaments is a violation of the contract!"]

[You suddenly understood that the company only checked the surface accounts and mistakenly believed that the huge amount of funds flowing into the military was for military expansion. Your preventive measures did play a role after all.]

[You said nonchalantly: "So what if it was violated? Contracts are like toilet paper, they are meant to be torn up~"]

[“You!?” Topa didn’t expect that the king of a country would show such a shameless face. ]

【You suddenly have a flash of inspiration and an idea. 】

[You suddenly stood up and walked towards her under Topa's vigilant gaze.]

[You come to Topa, walk straight past her and out.]

[“Your Majesty, where are you going?!” Topa asked hurriedly. ]

[“You want to know where the money is spent? Then hurry up and follow me.” You motioned for her to follow your pace, then walked out of the palace without looking back.]
