647: Lei Ming: Why does he take all the credit?
Yang Dian naturally didn't know that the Queen of Egypt had set her sights on him.
Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
The number of women in China who secretly harbored feelings for him was at least eighty million, if not a hundred million.
It was absolutely true to say that he was the dream lover of hundreds of millions of young women in China.
Who wouldn't admire the young, handsome, and invincible Commander of the Expeditionary Force?
It was only because most couldn't reach him that their admiration remained rooted in fantasy.
Setting aside Aola, who wanted to learn from Cleopatra VII and become the new generation's 'enchantress queen,' after leaving Egypt, Yang Dian searched Poland, India, Norway, and other places.
However, the results were the same as in Egypt.
All the 'lucky ones' who had obtained ancient Legacies had vanished, and the places where they acquired their Legacies were also nowhere to be found.
Returning to Tiannan Star again, Yang Dian looked up at the seemingly eternal spatial node and couldn't help but sigh.
"It seems I can only send the people from other countries to the immigration bases."
"I wonder if a mass migration can force those people out."
After a moment of silent contemplation, Yang Dian instructed Zero to transmit the plan for a mass migration to the Think Tank, asking them to draft a proposal.
As for himself?
He would naturally first secure all the resources available on Tiannan Star, and then shatter the planetary core to obtain energy.
"I wonder how much energy is left in Tiannan Star's planetary core."
Thinking of the Dimension Channel anchored to the Cold Silkworm, Yang Dian subconsciously snapped his fingers:
"I hope it's not too little."
His thoughts tore through the Void Realm barrier.
Just as he was about to head to his next destination, Uncle Lei's communication request arrived unexpectedly.
"The high-ranking officials of the Tiannan Star United Army just contacted me, saying they want to surrender. They said they've ordered their troops to disarm, and we can go and take over anytime."
Yang Dian paused, then found it somewhat amusing.
The United Army's high-ranking officials might not be good at other things, but their ability to adapt to circumstances was definitely top-notch.
How long had Earth, or rather, China, been fighting on Tiannan Star?
At most, a few hours.
Even now, the United Army hadn't fired a single shot or cannon at China's side, yet they had directly surrendered.
It was worth noting that just a few hours ago, Zero had only detected them contemplating surrender.
A few hours later, they had actually put it into action.
"If the United Army, or rather, the Tiannan People, had this kind of execution ability in other matters, then they would indeed be a race with good potential."
Uncle Lei, who caught the sarcasm in Yang Dian's words, chuckled, then spoke again:
"What do you say?"
"If they surrender and help us maintain order, it could save us a lot of time."
"As long as the United Army's high-ranking officials sign the surrender agreement live, our influence will definitely skyrocket."
"Perhaps it won't be long before Tiannan Star becomes our third affiliated Blessed Land."
After pondering for a moment, Yang Dian inquired:
"What's the cost?"
"What do we have to give, and what do they want to gain?"
"They want a certain degree of autonomy."
Hearing Uncle Lei's words, Yang Dian couldn't help but laugh:
"Where do they get such audacity?"
Saying that, Yang Dian snapped his fingers again:
"Ignore them."
"Our influence over the Tiannan People is not enough for us to make Tiannan Star our affiliated planet."
Then, Yang Dian used the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty as an example:
"Do you know that the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty has invaded over a thousand worlds, but only a handful of planets have fully become affiliated Blessed Lands of the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty?"
Uncle Lei wasn't stupid.
Reminded by Yang Dian and recalling information he'd read like novels when bored, he suddenly realized something:
"You mean a world is a world, and a civilization is a civilization."
"A civilization might hold a significant weight in a world, but it still doesn't represent the world or the planet itself?"
"Even if we completely conquer the Tiannan Civilization on Tiannan Star, it's impossible to expand the Dimension Folded Region to the entire planet?"
"Exactly."
Yang Dian snapped his fingers, giving an affirmative answer:
"There is only one way to completely transform Tiannan Star into our Blessed Land."
"Shatter Tiannan Star's planetary core?"
Yang Dian looked at Uncle Lei, who was now eager to answer, and smiled:
"Correct."
"Only by shattering Tiannan Star's planetary core will Tiannan Star completely become our Blessed Land."
"As long as Tiannan Star's planetary core is shattered, whether the Tiannan People or the United Army surrender is irrelevant."
Uncle Lei nodded:
"Then I know what to do."
Saying that, he chuckled again:
"Initially, when I contacted you, I was wondering if I should try to persuade you if you were going to agree to the Tiannan People's conditions."
"After all, according to the collected data, some Tiannan People truly don't deserve to be called human."
"Uncle Lei, don't you know me?" Yang Dian glanced at Uncle Lei:
"I would rather blow up Tiannan Star than compromise."
This time, it was Uncle Lei's turn to glare at Yang Dian:
"You don't know the cost of living until you're in charge."
"Still talking about blowing up Tiannan Star."
"Do you know how many resources are on Tiannan Star? How wasteful it would be to blow it up?"
Looking at Uncle Lei, who was about to launch into a lengthy lecture, Yang Dian blinked and said:
"Uncle Lei, you can directly handle the United Army's side; you don't need my approval."
"If you encounter something you can't solve, like the Corpse City becoming active, or the appearance of certain irresistible natural disasters or monsters, then you can contact me."
"I still have some things to do, so I'll hang up first."
Origin Corpse City military camp, parade ground.
Uncle Lei grumbled, watching Yang Dian hang up the phone.
Then he turned to look at the mechs suspended a thousand meters away, densely packed and filling his entire vision, idly watching him, and couldn't help but rub the goosebumps on his arms.
Although these mechs were civilian, stripped-down versions, and he could destroy a whole group with a flick of his finger, there were simply too many.
Being stared at by countless electronic eyes, he felt somewhat uneasy.
He was starting to feel his trypophobia act up.
Thinking that, he looked at Chen Ci beside him:
"Issue an announcement."
After saying three words, he paused, carefully choosing his words before speaking again:
"We, China, will never compromise with evil forces."
Chen Ci paused, then, while editing the message, narrowed her eyes and said:
"The Commander is awesome too."
"He directly defined the official ruling power of a planet as an evil force."
Uncle Lei immediately bristled and glared:
"What do you mean 'Young Yang is awesome'?"
"Defining the United Army as an evil force, that was clearly my idea!"
"You, a young girl, shouldn't attribute all the credit to Young Yang just because you like him."
Chen Ci blinked, her face impassive:
"I don't like the Commander; I just admire him."
As she spoke, a hint of admiration appeared in her eyes:
"The Commander is so powerful; if someone with a slightly darker mind had his power, he would have already established a harem and become an emperor on Earth."
"Unlike the Commander, who not only maintains his ambition but also abstains from women and isn't greedy for power."
"The word 'perfect' can't even describe the Commander."
