Chapter 292: 145 Success and Withdrawal
This was a video that caused a great uproar within the Sherman Empire.
The “White Ghost” quietly sat behind the desk, with the helmet stained by uncleaned insect blood.
It was obvious that he knew how to provoke the Sherman Empire citizens’ sense of pride.
“I never imagined that the descendants of Levi Sherman would fall to such a state.”
“Nor did I ever imagine that the great empire, the number one power of the Milky Way, would allow the Emperor Star to become so defiled.”
The “White Ghost’s” voice paused, as if sneering.
“The New Federation has already shoved the barrel into your mouths, and you can only mumble helplessly, thinking yourselves gracefully awaiting doom.”
“The Space Worm Clan!”
“The eternal foe of the human race!”
“It has already become the New Federation’s biological weapon. The research team led by Professor Pat has now overcome the challenges of artificially breeding the Space Worm Clan.”
“They have enabled Second-Rank queen mother worms to produce queen eggs, placing each first-rank queen in containers filled with anesthetic gas, placed on transport ships, letting these ships leap to the vast, endless borders of the Sherman Empire, to find warm nests to reproduce and multiply.”
“They haven’t just started doing this recently. Ever since they stumbled upon a queen worm egg, they have been researching for over decades!”
The “White Ghost” suddenly became agitated.
“They have already buried the Insect Swarm in every corner of the Sherman Empire!”
“And our officials, our intelligence department, have done nothing! All they do is eat shit, worthless incompetents! A bunch of parasites dependent on the Emperor Star! Their brains filled with indulgent worms corrupted by New Federation capital!”
“I feel ashamed of you! You lazy, good-for-nothing nobles!”
“The great Levi Sherman watches you with eyes of pity!”
The “White Ghost” held the helmet’s edge, took several deep breaths, as if a schizophrenic, in the next moment regained calmness.
“The video I spread across the entire network, you should have seen it.”
“That was on Ram Star, a Free Democratic agricultural planet of the New Federation. I infiltrated the New Federation for several years to obtain this intelligence and these clues.”
“That was their number one base. After it went out of control, they have moved to other backup bases.”
“You want detailed intelligence? Fine. I have sent all the documents to the Sherman Empire Military Intelligence Department Twelve, from the personal email of their chief officer to the official emails of all their departments.”
“You can slowly review, you can search in various places, Space Worm Clan feed on radiation, they are hiding close to Constant Stars on planetary surfaces, in the mantle layers of ordinary rocky planets; using biological detectors, they aren’t hard to find.”
“That’s it.”
The “White Ghost” seemed to want to turn off the recording device.
But just as he moved, he sat back down, contemplating for a few seconds.
“Oh right, what should you do if you don’t believe this? I need to think about how to make you believe this is the truth.”
“The New Federation will surely launch a media war, desperately covering up their actions… I will update the intelligence in three hours, but I cannot do everything for you.”
“Show some effectiveness, can you, you ugly nobles?”
“The White Ghost will remain around the Emperor Star.”
The video abruptly ended.
…
Satisfaction!
Yang Ming drank ice-cold juice, sitting in the corner of the Feinan’s bridge, smiling at the projection screen before him.
Publicly scolding these Sherman nobles, and then having them scurry across the world to find insects, this feeling… is unspeakably delightful.
Lyu and Dabbic were busy, while Yang Ming and 026 were relatively at leisure.
The video had been sent out for two hours, and the second wave of intelligence was already prepared. The Sherman Empire had suffered a large-scale network attack, but this attack didn’t clog the networks; it merely spread this message wildly.
Lyu’s strategic value was perfectly demonstrated at this moment.
By contrast, the Luofeng Empire’s Sixth Fleet beginning to quell the rebellion on the Fifth Administrative Star didn’t cause even a ripple.
Even within the Luofeng Empire’s territory, the top ten trending topics were occupied by the White Ghost, the Insect Race, and other series of keywords, totaling six.
The remaining four were respectively about a hot star’s multi-person party being secretly filmed, the itinerary of the Sherman Empire’s Princess, Edwan Prince’s astrological analysis, and an overview of New Federation Minter City’s night view.
026, not far away, was cutting fruit platters, occasionally glancing at the news channel.
“Boss, the New Federation is starting a media counterattack.”
Lyu’s projection appeared beside him, reporting quickly,
“They are implementing three steps simultaneously.”
“First, blocking the network within the Sherman Empire, and using so-called authoritative experts within the Sherman Empire to refute rumors, attempting to categorize our disseminated news as falsehoods.”
“Second, declaring the White Ghost as a new type of terrorist organization, intending to incite war between the two most powerful countries of the Galaxy.”
“Third, they re-edited our disseminated video…”
Lyu’s expression showed slight change.
That was extreme disdain.
“They claim that this video is just an unreleased… movie trailer.”
“What the hell?”
Yang Ming’s expression was a bit grim.
Lyu reminded him, “Their counterattacks are quite effective. I randomly monitored chat groups across ten thousand planets of the Sherman Empire, and some opinions started shifting towards ‘it’s just a movie trailer’ prank.”
