Chapter 201 The Demon Who Broke the Fourth Wall
"Old Huang, with your speed, you've got nothing better to do than keep an eye on the small-time players, haven't you?"
"Our main motto is 'We won't let any good thing slip by!'"
Qin Yun read through the mission details on the light screen at a glance.
He silently complained to himself.
The Emperor really does keep a close eye on the players 24/7.
Whenever the players find something good, he will immediately issue a quest, for fear that Qin Yun might miss it.
"Xi Ling."
Qin Yun called out as he turned to look at Xi Ling behind him.
During this time, Xiling stayed by Qin Yun's side in her physical form.
With yet another upgrade to the Imperial Glory,
Xiling's body became lifelike, just like a real human being.
To the naked eye, she is no longer indistinguishable from a normal human.
If a scanning device is used, it can still be seen that she is a moving, high-energy entity.
“Master.” Xiling stepped forward and bowed to Qin Yun.
"Among the loot the players have captured, is there the Scepter of the Wrath of the Stars?" Qin Yun asked.
"Yes, Master."
Xiling nodded and casually opened a projection interface.
He showed Qin Yun what the Scepter of the Wrath of the Stars looked like.
"This scepter uses cutting-edge spatial dimension technology and transformation technology."
"Its end is bound to a star, which serves as its energy source."
"This scepter actually binds a star to serve as an energy source?" Qin Yun looked at the projection of the Scepter of the Wrath of the Star, his tone somewhat surprised.
The Space Necromancers are actually quite something.
It can actually shrink a star and put it inside the scepter to serve as an energy source.
Such skills, if placed in other worldviews, would at least qualify one as a Foundation Establishment expert.
If such advanced technology could be analyzed,
Qin Yun didn't dare to think too deeply about what those small-time players might do.
They were determined to turn the entire galaxy upside down.
However, the reward for this task is "Stellar Energy Conversion Technology Version 1.0".
The introduction states that this technology is a prerequisite for megastructure construction technology.
This made Qin Yun a little curious.
What kind of colossal building would need such a transformation technology?
Qin Yun thought of a Dyson sphere, and then of a starship.
A spaceship that uses an entire star as its power source.
Just thinking about it is amazing, it makes your mouth water.
You know, even among stars, that thing would be considered a supermodel.
If the human empire had a few of these ships, they wouldn't even need to fire a shot; they'd scare the Tau people so badly they'd wet themselves.
Xiling nodded. "Yes, a star is bound to the end of the Scepter of the Star's Wrath. Master, shall we return the scepter to Terra and give it to you?"
Qin Yun shook his head, "No need, just increase its weight."
"There's one more thing: I need to analyze the technology used in this weapon as soon as possible, and use the knowledge I gain to improve humanity's technology tree."
“Understood, Xiling will take care of it immediately,” Xiling said.
After giving the instructions, Qin Yun turned his attention back to the official duties at hand.
Thanks to these efforts, the impact of Terra's reforms has spread throughout the entire solar sector.
The Lighthouse Network is gradually taking shape, connecting many parts of the world and reshaping local communication systems and political structures.
Stimulated by various new laws, productivity has increased significantly, and people's lives have seen a visible improvement.
The solar region, which had been like a slowly decaying corpse, suddenly burst forth with thriving vitality.
As the commercial economy continued to grow, the sharp contradictions between different classes were alleviated.
Unfortunately, even after achieving this, Qin Yun still had many opponents.
After all, this reform has affected the interests of too many people.
The conservative high lords of Terra are merely the tip of the iceberg of the old guard.
A large number of conservatives remain on various planets of the empire, openly and covertly opposing and obstructing reforms.
Of course, some of them are old-fashioned and unwilling to accept new changes, but they still remain loyal.
The rest are simply egoists.
Their thinking was also very simple: it didn't matter whether the empire lived or died, as long as their interests couldn't be harmed.
Their wealth can be stolen by Chaos, by Xenomorphs, but not by the Empire.
When asked, one can be loyal to the empire and die for the emperor, but one cannot sacrifice one's own cow for the empire.
In order to resolve the problems caused by these people and to advance the reforms, Qin Yun had to handle everything personally to prevent those with ulterior motives from using the reforms to cause trouble.
After all, there are other ways to disrupt something than simply resisting or refusing to comply.
To execute superiors' instructions 100%, or even 200%,
This often causes superiors a great deal of trouble.
On the projection screen, a large number of government reports flashed past Qin Yun.
If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be dazzled after just a few glances.
Qin Yun, however, was able to pay attention to every detail of government affairs, no matter how small, and make corresponding comments.
Suddenly, Qin Yun stopped and frowned.
Several reform officials were traveling to a mining planet when...
He was executed on the spot by the miners after a sudden riot broke out while he was inspecting their living conditions.
Imperial troops were mobilized immediately and have killed all the rebellious miners.
The report was of a very low level and was treated as a routine report.
If Qin Yun hadn't been so meticulous in reviewing and approving everything, no matter how small, then...
This report couldn't even get into the Terra Interior Ministry.
Clearly, there is a force trying to suppress this matter.
Thinking about this, Qin Yun clenched his fists.
These damned bastards, do they really think the human empire is America?!
Upon checking the accounts, they staged a suicide attempt by shooting him three times in the back!
Is this person treating me like a fool?
If there were no interest groups involved in this matter,
Qin Yun cut off Magnus's head and sent it to the throne of Khorne.
(I sneezed on Magnus on Wizarding Planet, and now I feel a chill on my neck.)
Qin Yun paced back and forth for a moment,
He couldn't help but recall the words of the ancients and began to examine himself three times a day.
Have I been too accommodating lately?
Has there been no killing during this period?
Was the level of support for these damned privileged elites insufficient?
"If you like playing tricks so much, why don't you just play a match-3 game?"
Qin Yun immediately sent an email to Ers, the representative of the court.
Let him take an imperial fleet to that mining planet and educate the local rulers about the game Candy Crush.
Ers is very efficient.
A few days later, a punitive fleet arrived at the mining planet.
An investigation is underway into the numerous families involved in the murder of reform officials.
Many families were stripped of their positions and identities and imprisoned.
"You dare to lay a hand on the Finney family? Do you even know who's behind the Finney family?"
A woman's hysterical roar.
"Stop what you're doing right now, or none of you will escape unscathed!!"
These words stunned the judges for a few seconds, after which their lips curled up in uncontrollable excitement.
I thought it was just a routine disciplinary action, but I didn't expect there to be an unexpected bonus.
You should know that catching corrupt high-ranking officials nowadays is more rewarding than catching aliens or demons.
After all, the aliens and demons wreaking havoc in the Solar Sector have only killed a few people!
That's not even a fraction of what those corrupt officials do.
Any single decree issued by these bureaucrats could displace tens of millions of people, causing them to die of hunger and cold.
Or they could force the entire planet to become traitors, and then these traitors would be brutally suppressed by the arriving imperial army, resulting in a bloodbath.
Corrupt bureaucrats may not kill people with their own hands, but the number of people they harm is countless.
"What are you going to do?"
The woman turned pale when she saw the stormtroopers surrounding her.
"Don't misunderstand, ma'am. We just want to know who's backing the Finney family. Only then will we know what to do next."
A judge approached, smiling and courteous.
"You'd be terrified if I told you, the Finney family is backed by..."
Seeing the other person's attitude, the woman immediately became smug again.
The Phine family's backer is a powerful figure who can make a name for himself in Terra.
"I see."
The judge's smile grew even brighter, which made the woman uneasy.
The other party doesn't seem afraid of the big shot behind the Finney family.
"Aren't you scared?" the woman asked somewhat uneasily.
"Why should I be afraid of a dead man?" the judge grinned. "The moment that guy got involved in this, he was already dead; it was just a matter of when!"
“He is…” The woman’s face showed fear; she realized that the other person didn’t seem to be lying to her.
The judge interrupted the woman, "In the present empire, who is more noble than the Primarch and the Saints?"
“Obstructing reform is a dead end, whether it’s your family, the Finney family, or the big shot you mentioned.”
"A lot of blood has already been shed for the sake of reform, and no one will mind a little more."
"No!" the woman cried out in despair.
Unfortunately, this time, no one listened to her nonsense.
The stormtrooper stepped forward, restrained her, and dragged her away.
