Chapter 679: 286 Collapse Edge_3
“There is an Intelligent Machine production line,” Yang Ming whispered, “aren’t you longing for chanical transformation? I’ll take you to design a few chanical transformation plans.”
“Really?!”
Mimili’s face lit up with joy, then she cunningly sensed a hint of conspiracy.
“Uncle, you want to persuade
to give up on chanical transformation, right? I’m not so easily swayed.”
Yang Ming smiled without answering.
The cabin was filled with a subtle fragrance that brightened his mood considerably.
…
“Sigh.”
On the outskirts of a city on Emperor Star, ho to hundreds of thousands of technicians, in a park.
Captain Catherine, dressed in exoskeletal armor and wearing a tactical helt, jumped down from a hoverboard and sat on a faux-stone bench in front of a fountain, lost in thought.
Away from the estates of the palace nobility, Catherine no longer had to witness the collective degeneration of the Great Nobles.
There were few Imperial citizens on Emperor Star, just over a hundred million, of which ninety million were ‘ordinary citizens’ and ten million were the private-property-like slave-status subjects of the palace nobility.
Slavery within the Empire was uncommon, and most of it was on so semi-resource administrative planets, made up of serious offenders or war prisoners.
—The Empire had annihilated a small nation, demoting about three percent of its population to sub-citizens.
Sin and oppression took place upon these people of slave status.
Catherine had heard of nobles’ persecution of slaves, but when she actually saw it, it still shocked her to the core.
The Empire’s nobles were not as noble as one would expect.
Emperor Star, which was supposed to symbolize the spirit of the Empire and represent civilization, was instead draped in humanity’s ugliness.
Catherine looked down at her communicator. Although she couldn’t contact the outside world, touching that person’s profile picture still provided a bit of comfort.
A faint trembling ca from the ground.
The modules of Emperor Star began to rotate, and the simulated Constant Star in the sky also started to shift position.
The Constant Star System where Emperor Star was located was shrouded in darkness because the central star had been enveloped by a thin energy-absorbing device, providing Emperor Star with an almost endless supply of energy.
Even so, sotis they still had to transport energy from outside the Constant Star System.
Emperor Star seed like a monster that devoured energy.
Catherine raised her hand to the front of her helt, and suddenly, various figures appeared in her mind.
“Catherine, don’t think about these aningless questions, just do your job,” Director Riva’s voice was always so calm.
“Captain Catherine, we fight to the death over and over to protect these scum? We are set to die from the mont we are born, to participate in that deadly human ascension experint, just to pave the way for these scum? I cannot accept this, I cannot!”
“Captain, we are Supermodified people, we should face powerful enemies, not beco watch dogs for the nobles.”
“I can’t stand it here anymore.”
The voices of her teammates gradually beca more agitated.
“I saw with my own eyes, they hung up several young people and beat them to death bit by bit, the corpses were taken away to feed pets!”
Soone sneered in her ear:
“The children born to slaves are still slaves, they are using genetic optimization to select their playthings, humans here are just playthings, do you understand?”
“What’s the big deal? If you can’t stand it, strive to beco one of them.”
“We are Supermodified people, why should we care about all these ssy things, otherwise why call this the Empire instead of the Sherman Federation?”
These figures suddenly disappeared, turning into a girl wearing only underwear, who rushed out from the corner of a garden by the roadside, but was caught by the feet by two chanical Guards and dragged back through the manor’s side gate.
“Save ! Save ! Please save !”
She suddenly rembered the wars she had fought in, the corpses of soldiers and enemies piled up like small hills, and now she was standing at the top of that hill, lost.
“Hmph!”
Captain Catherine suddenly covered her helt with both hands, her body trembling slightly as though enduring imnse pain, and a buzzing echoed continuously in her ears.
Unknown to her, a hidden cara installed in a nearby tree had already focused on her, carefully observing.
