Chapter 487 Unequal Treaty and Admitting Cowardice

"Your Majesty, we can't agree to these demands. Without the army, we can only let them do whatever they want!" An officer stood up and shouted excitedly.

"That's right, Your Majesty! We can't join this galactic alliance! They just want to use the resources we have worked so hard to collect to build their fleet!"

"And they also want to invade us through culture, we will never allow it!" Another official also stood up to support.

"Don't argue, there is another page behind, let's see what it is." The king slammed the table and shouted.

As the invitation letter was turned to the last page, a video appeared on the screen.

"The first experiment of the Touch of Darkness begins, all recording equipment is normal!" A star emitting red light appeared on the screen, and the voice of the narrator came from the speakers.

"3, 2, 1! Touch of Darkness launches!" As the narration countdown ended, a blue light rushed straight to the star from the bottom of the screen.

At this time, the video began to fast forward continuously. According to the time display in the upper right corner, after just a few hours, the entire star suddenly expanded several times in size.

Then, the star suddenly broke apart like a smashed watermelon, and a large amount of stellar matter was ejected to the surroundings, accompanied by dazzling light.

A few minutes later, this dazzling light engulfed several planets in this star system, and these planets were turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.

When the video was about to end, the light had disappeared, and what remained in this star system were countless stellar debris, which were still emitting a dim red light because of the residual heat.

The entire conference room was silent, with only the video narration coming from the speakers:

"The Touch of Darkness experiment is complete, the target star has been destroyed, and as the energy shock wave spreads, nothing will survive within a two-light-year diameter." As the narration disappeared, the video paused on the screen of red stellar debris everywhere.

"I agree to join the Galactic Alliance." At this time, an officer whispered weakly.

"Me too, I agree to join the Galactic Alliance."

"I agree too!" Everyone in the conference room expressed their opinions one after another, completely missing the righteous refusal they had just expressed.

At this time, only the king had not made a decision yet, and everyone's eyes were on the king.

"We, the Hughes Principality, will officially join the Galactic Alliance tomorrow!" The king seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, and his body leaned weakly on the back of the chair.

"Tomorrow I will personally hand over the reply to the fleet of the Sith Empire. See you tomorrow." The king said with difficulty and stood up and left the conference room.

Everyone knew that once they joined the Galactic Alliance, according to these terms, the Hughes Principality would sooner or later be assimilated by the Sith Empire, and the fate of the royal family of the principality could be imagined.

The next day, a team composed of the king of the Hughes Principality and senior officers took a spaceship to the battleship separated from the Imperial Fleet.

This time, it was no longer a soldier who came to greet them, but a man who looked like an officer.

"We, the Hughes Principality, agree to join the Galactic Alliance!" The king gritted his teeth and expressed the final decision of the principality to the Imperial officer.

"Very good, your Hughes Principality is very wise, unlike the civilization we met last time."

"You know, the order we received before we set off was to eradicate all civilizations that were unwilling to join the alliance. You are very smart." The imperial officer patted the shoulder of His Majesty the Emperor of the Hughes Principality.

As the future overlord civilization of these civilizations, the officers of the Sith Empire completely looked down on the leaders of these weak civilizations. In their view, it was just a matter of him leading the fleet to fire a few volleys.

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. After hearing the words of the Sith Empire officer, the officers who came with the king broke out in cold sweat instantly. They were on the verge of death!

"After a while, our Sith Empire's guidance team will come to help you. Please cooperate with their work, otherwise we don't mind you disappearing in this universe." The officer waved his hand to see him off, and turned to walk towards the bridge.

The king and officers of the Hughes Principality sighed and turned to leave the imperial spaceship.

A month later, several large transport ships of the empire arrived in the star field where the Hughes Principality was located.

A wormhole expressway transit station was also built in the space next to the star.

When the wormhole expressway transit station was activated, countless spaceships emerged from it and flew to the mother star of the Hughes Principality not far away.

At this time, the citizens of the Hughes Principality had already known that their country had joined a large alliance across the Milky Way.

Today, the leaders of the Sith Empire will also arrive in their country to guide and supervise their process of joining the Milky Way Alliance.

The first destination of these Sith Empire spaceships is the military base of the Hughes Principality.

Under the supervision of the Sith Empire leaders, all the warships of the Hughes Principality were dismantled of weapons, heavy armor, military radars and thrusters, and completely transformed into civilian ships.

Another place, on the capital star of the Hughes Principality.

All the troops were called together, and today is the day they are officially disbanded. Only a small number of elites will be transferred to police positions, and most of the soldiers will be unemployed and go home.

In the face of possible rebellions and riots, the Empire has specially prepared consciousness-infiltrating game consoles for them.

People who are unemployed at home only need to indulge in the illusory game world every day.

In addition, the biggest change is the high-rise buildings that have sprung up in the city.

The Royal Medical College and the Royal Bank are the most eye-catching. Among them, the Royal Medical College is the industry under the name of the Sith Empire Royal Family, and it is also the one that provides technical support for the lifespan improvement of this civilization.

The Royal Bank is also owned by the Imperial Royal Family, with the purpose of absorbing the funds of these people and secretly controlling the economic lifeline of this civilization.

Two months later

Lespreis is just an ordinary company employee. Two months ago, when he knew that his country had joined the Galactic Alliance and could not even have an army, he was the most opposed group.

However, even if he united a large number of patriots and students to march, he could not change the result of the Hughes Principality joining the Galactic Alliance.

Originally, he thought that becoming a vassal civilization under the rule of the Sith Empire would make them slaves, but he found that he was wrong!

In the past two months, the Principality of Hughes has undergone tremendous changes!
