The communication not long ago seemed to have stimulated Pei Zhao'an.

Not only has the public opinion on Starnet not been diluted by time, it has even intensified.

The crowd of protesters near Cangrui Star showed no signs of dispersing. The originally empty channel was crowded with starships, and the dazzling artificial lights were shining there day and night.

The planet is so far away from the stars in its host system that the sun is not strong even at noon.

After living here for more than a year, Lu Yunwan has gradually adapted to this weak light.

But today is different.

The crimson light penetrated the clouds and shone on the Cangrui star, and everything here turned blood red.

The originally peaceful and gentle planet is as terrifying as falling into hell.

The Yanwei Legion sent messages to Lu Yunwan several times, asking whether to evacuate the starships on the channel, but Lu Yunwan refused.

——He dares to do it, and of course he dares to be said.

In the past few days, the entire interstellar star network media has concentrated around Cangrui star.

The "grand occasion" outside this planet was recorded by them and spread to every corner of the interstellar world.

Of course Chu Xuanzhou who was on the capital star also saw it.

There is no lighting in the study at the bottom of the deep sea, only Cang Rui Xing, which is artificially illuminated and turned blood-red in the holographic projection, hangs alone in the center of the room.

Chu Xuanzhou walked to the edge of the planet step by step.

He wanted to go to Lu Yunwan, but he couldn't leave Capital Star now.

With Lu Yunwan's deliberate help, the young Chu Xuanzhou has abilities far surpassing his own age in the original book.

But the difference from the book is that he wanted too much power and wanted to keep Lu Yun by his side, so he stood in the highest position before consolidating his power.

After assuming the throne, the young ruler of the empire must suppress the group of restless nobles with iron and blood as quickly as possible.

He seemed to be understanding the former Lu Yunwan little by little.

Chu Xuanzhou used the channels of the royal family to try to suppress public opinion, but unfortunately, the royal family's wealth had already been wiped out when Chu Zhang was the emperor.

All of this made Chu Xuanzhou want to have more power like crazy.

It's late at night on GST, and in a few hours it's time for a press conference.

Chu Xuanzhou hesitated for a while, but in the end he chose not to disturb Lu Yunwan this night.

-

Ever since Lu Yunwan became the regent, the troubles on Cangrui planet have attracted much attention.

Under the influence of this unprecedented frenzy of public opinion, more than an hour before the live broadcast of the press conference, the number of viewers on Xingwang reached hundreds of millions.

Not only the protesters and civilians, but everyone in the empire is paying attention to this matter.

Located in Capital Star's manor, Pei Zhao'an, dressed in dark blue robes, was sitting on a black sofa.

He held a glass in his hand, which was filled with a black liquid—this was one of the drugs that had become popular among the upper echelons of the empire recently.

The human being somewhat similar to Lu Yunwan was lying on his side on the sofa, gently resting on Pei Zhaoan's lap.

The mermaid patted his shoulder lightly, and said to the human in a low voice with some helplessness: "Look at you, you have been beautiful for a lifetime, and you will end up in embarrassment in the end?"

The man pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

He knew that Pei Zhao'an was not talking to himself, but to that high-ranking regent.

While speaking, Pei Zhao'an's hand slowly moved towards the back of the man's neck, and after gently stroking it a few times, he suddenly held the human's fragile and warm neck tightly in his hands.

It's something he's been doing a lot lately.

"what!!"

The human who exhaled just now was defenseless, his lungs convulsed, clamoring for air, and his usually quiet and obedient body also began to struggle violently.

"help me……"

"Cough, cough, Mr. Pei... I, breathe—"

Human eyes were full of pleading, but even at this point, he still didn't dare to hit Pei Zhao'an's wrist hard, trying to make him let go due to the pain.

As the merfolk often say, humans are indeed very fragile animals.

But in just half a minute, the man's forehead hair was soaked with sweat, and it was all stuck to his forehead.

His cheeks were abnormally red, and his eyes were filled with tears.

But Pei Zhao'an didn't seem to see it.

He drank the contents of the cup in one gulp, and suddenly turned around and landed on the human body.

"The eyes are wrong."

The mermaid stared viciously at the person in front of him with his dark green eyes: "He will never look at me with begging eyes..."

After finishing speaking, Pei Zhao'an repeated in a slightly regretful and disappointed tone: "Never..."

At this moment, Pei Zhao'an suddenly remembered the first time he met Lu Yunwan.

He once publicly said that the two met for the first time after Lu Yunwan joined the military, but this was actually not true.

Earlier, Pei Zhao'an had seen Lu Yunwan from a distance once.

This time, even Lu Yunwan himself didn't know.

The Imperial Military Academy is the cradle of high-ranking military officials. The empire and even the great nobles in the interstellar world like to use funding to find a sense of presence and seek benefits for themselves.

That time Pei Zhao'an came to the Imperial Military Academy as a representative of the Pei family, and after completing all the ceremonies, he returned to the starship dock accompanied by the school's senior management.

Pei Zhao'an has no title and has always kept a low profile. He did not park the starship in the most conspicuous position like those blustering mermaid nobles, but randomly placed it in a corner of the Imperial Military Academy.

In addition to starships, mechs are also parked here.

Just as Pei Zhao'an boarded the starship and was about to leave here, a huge mecha fell from the sky.

Then, the students in black training suits left the mecha and walked onto the docking platform.

"Is that a human?" Pei Zhao'an suddenly asked the entourage.

The head student is obviously much thinner than the others, and his dark black eyes are also very conspicuous among the mermaids who generally have shallow pupils.

"Yes," the teacher at the Imperial Military Academy guessed who he was talking about without even looking at him, "Mr. Pei, his name is Lu Yunwan."

After finishing speaking, the teacher suddenly became nervous.

Although he is a mermaid, the military academy always speaks with strength.

It didn't take long for Lu Yunwan to enter the military academy, and the little grudge and suspicion towards human beings in his heart turned into appreciation.

... I don't know if Pei Zhao'an will embarrass this student.

"The one with full mental strength?" Pei Zhao'an vaguely remembered the legend about "Lu Yunwan".

"Yes, it's him."

Pei Zhao'an nodded and stopped talking. He rested his forehead on the porthole lightly and looked out with great interest.

At this time, Lu Yunwan and his party also noticed the starship.

"Wow! This is a new luxury starship. I don't know which nobleman came to our school."

"I really want to take a closer look..."

"Forget it, they definitely don't want to be disturbed."

Hearing the people around him talking, Lu Yunwan's gaze also fell towards the starship not far away.

And inadvertently collided with Pei Zhaoan who was sitting in the one-way reflective porthole.

Pei Zhao'an saw that the group of students walking beside Lu Yunwan were all looking at his starship with admiration and longing.

Only Lu Yunwan, the humblest human being, had an unruly expression that he had never seen before.

The most important thing is that Lu Yunwan only glanced casually, and then looked away.

He didn't seem to be interested in this rare luxury starship at all.

Pei Zhaoan raised his eyebrows.

Born with monstrous power, he could see that Lu Yunwan's disdain was not a pretense of aloofness, but that he really had no interest at all.

Lu Yunwan just glanced at it unintentionally, but his eyes were like sparks, which instantly ignited Pei Zhaoan's heart.

"Is it Lu Yunwan?" The mermaid's voice suddenly became hoarse.

"Yes, yes."

"Okay, I see." After finishing speaking, Pei Zhao'an stopped talking.

The teacher of the Imperial Military Academy left the starship, and a few seconds later the huge hull rose into the sky and headed towards the deep space.

Pei Zhao'an turned on the optical brain at this time, he paused for a while, and entered Lu Yunwan's name here for the first time.

In the next second, the holographic projection of Lu Yunwan participating in the mech competition half a year ago appeared in front of Pei Zhaoan.

The man saw that the appearance of Lu Yunwan and the black mecha made the whole venue boil.

Countless people shouted his name, and some humans even fell into a faint because of his appearance.

Lu Yunwan seems to be born with the ability to attract people crazy.

But the human beings in black clothes in the mechs have no perception of all this.

Lu Yunwan's gaze was calm, and there was nothing but the galaxy in the distance.

He and the mecha are like a shooting star, shuttling freely among the stars in the sky.

... Pei Zhaoan sighed in the pitch-black mecha, he laughed, and drank the liquid in one glass in one gulp.

The cold body of the mermaid was set on fire by Lu Yunwan at that moment.

That was the first time Pei Zhaoan became interested in male humans.

And at the moment when the mech passed through the planetary ring and landed steadily in the holographic projection, another strong premonition arose in Pei Zhao'an's heart——

The boy in front of him is destined to become his enemy.

"what--"

Pei Zhao'an's thoughts were brought back to reality by human screams.

The person lying on his lap closed his eyes feebly, and he no longer had the strength to struggle.

Seeing this, Pei Zhaoan finally let go of his fingers regretfully.

The human breathed heavily.

Pei Zhao'an saw: there was a deep blue-purple strangle mark on the neck of the person in front of him, and his eyes became desperate.

The human beings who walked around outside the gate of hell felt a strong sense of fear and sadness in their hearts.

Pei Zhao'an's methods are usually very cruel, but this is the first time that human being has the feeling of saving his life...

"Thank you, thank you Mr. Pei..." But even at this time, he still didn't dare to blame Pei Zhao'an.

The humans who were talking didn't know that the evil fire in Pei Zhao'an's heart was getting stronger because of his own words.

Everything in front of him, as well as the unruly eyes in his memory remind Pei Zhao'an all the time: he has never really got Lu Yunwan, and he will never get it.

The star network live broadcast started at this time, and the bright red poppy totem appeared in front of Pei Zhaoan.

"Hahaha..." He suddenly laughed out loud.

So what if you can't get him?

How could I destroy him with my own hands...

-

Lu Yunwan had never attended a press conference in person before, but this time it was different.

The spiritual power-guided healing experiment is the most important thing for Lu Yunwan during this period of time. He personally takes care of every step of the project.

Even without the recent storm of public opinion, Lu Yunwan would still attend the meeting in person.

His plan obviously didn't change at all, but all of this fell into the eyes of others, and it all became a manifestation of Lu Yunwan's guilty conscience.

On Capital Star, Chu Xuanzhou was also watching this live broadcast.

He turned on the projection, and with the disappearance of the huge poppy totem, a familiar figure appeared in front of Chu Xuanzhou.

Lu Yunwan, who came to the press conference, was wearing a black formal suit. The collar was tightly fastened by black jade buttons, and the exquisitely tailored suit lined the slender waist of a human being as if it could be crushed with a little force.

Lu Yunwan walked in from outside the hall with a red light on his back, imprinting an elegant silhouette in the hearts of many people who were watching the live broadcast.

He wore a rare tie and a bright red poppy brooch on his chest.

Lu Yunwan is a very beautiful person.

So beautiful that when he first entered the Imperial Military Academy, he was famous for half of the stars because of this face before he had achieved any results.

It was not until a long time later that Lu Yunwan's illustrious military achievements and notoriety finally suppressed the legend about this face.

But this scene awakened countless people's initial memories about Lu Yunwan.

Chu Xuanzhou, who blocked the comments and focused on Lu Yunwan, didn't see it. The moment he appeared, the comments column appeared for a long time with bad guesses about the powerful regent:

"What else did Lu Yunwan do other than attaching himself to the mermaid nobles and proposing bills to curry favor with them? I really doubt how he got into the military in the first place."

"Isn't the answer simple? Look up at the projection, what else could it be other than that face?"

"Hey, do you think he was with those mermaids..."

"definitely is."

"There have been rumors before, and it must not be groundless—"

Unlike Chu Xuanzhou, at this time Pei Zhao'an was looking at the aloof King Regent with great interest, while admiring those nasty and dirty comments.

Seeing his expression full of mockery and anticipation, the humans around him couldn't help shivering.

On Cangrui Star, Lu Yunwan walked onto the high platform alone.

Everyone who was watching the live broadcast thought that Lu Yunwan would definitely explain the "Heming Agreement" first to deal with the recent turmoil, but contrary to expectations, after standing still, Lu Yunwan chatted with everyone about his spiritual power, and even his There are also related popular science materials projected by holograms.

"From this model, it can be seen that the mermaid's mental power is more aggressive, while the human's mental power is more gentle."

Lu Yunwan didn't seem to care about the recent turmoil at all.

He even had a smile on his face and didn't feel nervous at all.

At this time, Lu Yunwan was calm, but Xingwang completely exploded because he was too calm.

"??"

"What is Lu Yunwan doing? Doesn't he know what happened recently?"

"How is it possible, who was the person who was stuck outside Cang Rui last time and almost couldn't go back."

"Since it's not that you don't know, then you are deliberately ignoring it."

"Hahaha, the regent is aloof, and lives more chicly than a mermaid, and even His Majesty has a close relationship with him. Does a big man like him care about the life and death of low-level humans like us?"

"When Lu Yunwan became the first human major general before, everyone called him "the hope of mankind" and expected him to change our lives.But what happened later?You all know what happened.A person like him is just purely selfish.If you really want to treat him as a fellow, you are stupid. "

"Didn't you say that the Yanwei Legion is all human?! No one dared to kill him? It's really bloodless!"

"He's a traitor."

Lu Yunwan's calmness and inherent arrogance completely angered all the humans who were watching the press conference.

The other half, who originally expected Lu Yunwan to apologize to them and overthrow the "Heming Agreement", became angry because of Lu Yunwan's behavior.

Standing on the high platform, Lu Yunwan certainly knew what everyone was thinking. On the surface, he introduced the spiritual power without distraction, but he couldn't help but silently think that the regent would not do what he had done for him at this time. things apologies.

Most importantly, the "Heming Agreement" was not a decision made by the original owner.

Lu Yunwan sighed helplessly in his heart.

This vast empire has grown unevenly for hundreds of years, and almost everything humans have has been plundered.

At the last moment, the greedy empire set its sights on the only light of mankind.

The wheel of history has turned here, and even if it wasn't the original owner who signed the "Heming Agreement", it would be someone else.

What can end all of this is not the regent's apology, but the demise of him and the old order he represents...

More than a year has passed, and Lu Yunwan, who has integrated into this world and identity, often empathizes with the original owner.

Thinking of this, Lu Yunwan, who was explaining the spiritual power, suddenly paused for a few seconds.

He sighed imperceptibly.

Lu Yunwan found out: Except for Chu Xuanzhou, almost everyone in this world is looking forward to his death.

including myself.

The angry humans didn't see it, neither did Pei Zhao'an, who was addicted to desire.

Only Chu Xuanzhou noticed this flash of sadness.

Lu Yunwan on the high platform was not wearing a cape as usual, and his figure looked extraordinarily thin.

Lu Yunwan in the holographic projection in front of Chu Xuanzhou was pale and perfect like AI, he looked lonely and helpless.

Obviously he is someone whom he sees almost every day, but Lu Yunwan in the projection is extremely far away.

Looking at Lu Yunwan from this perspective, Chu Xuanzhou felt that he had become no different from the hundreds of millions of ordinary people in the interstellar world...

He doesn't like this feeling.

After that sigh, Lu Yunwan continued to introduce information about spiritual power.

Except for the angry majority, a small number of people who are familiar with spiritual power feel that something is wrong the more they listen to his words... They have long understood the basic concept of what Lu Yunwan said just now, but they have never heard of what he said now. things!

A huge holographic digital model appeared in front of the Regent.

Lu Yun looked at the model with a smile and said: "Everyone already knows the importance of mental power in the field of warfare and attack, but beyond that, we found that gentle mental power can also have the opposite effect. It is mental power to assist in healing."

"We can even try to use spiritual power to guide mermaids so that they are no longer enslaved by desire."

Lu Yunwan said everything because he was about to die.

What he said just now is not wrong - mermaids, especially mermaids at the bottom, are enslaved by desire all their lives.

They indulge in lust, or take large quantities of poor-quality drugs, and end up dying prematurely from overdose or violently.

For a lifetime, he was muddled, like a wandering spirit.

It's not in the same world as the capital star who is drunk and dreaming.

But all this is not because they don't want to be sober, but because they never got the chance to be sober.

Mermaids born at the bottom have embarked on an unchosen path of degeneration and death since the day they were born...they themselves are not willing to do so, and pray for change.

But Lu Yunwan shouldn't have told the truth so bluntly in front of hundreds of billions of mermaids.

His words hurt the mermaid's self-esteem severely.

And before today's press conference was held, Xingwang had already predicted that he would "clean up" himself and pretend to protect the interests of mankind.

So it is very ironic that after hearing what Lu Yunwan said just now, no human being thought about whether he would really change everything from the direction of spiritual power.

Except for the insiders of the experiment, only the group of mermaid nobles who were tricked by Lu Yunwan to fund the experiment believed that he had really created something.

-

Capital Star, at the same time as the press conference was held, several levitators landed in the manor in the deep sea.

The mermaid in fancy clothes hurried in and huddled together in front of the sofa.

"Kill him, must kill him!"

"Mr. Pei, Lu Yunwan's experiments like that will definitely affect the interests of our mermaids! We must kill him now, when human beings are excited, and destroy all the data of the experiment!!"

"Yes, you must do it before humans believe that the experiment exists and the results of the experiment are used."

"That's right!"

They absolutely do not allow humans to see hope and believe that they have the power to rival the mermaids.

The appearance of Lu Yunwan has already ruined the empire, and the nobles can hardly imagine what kind of ghosts StarCraft will become if there are more "Lu Yunwans" appearing.

Pei Zhao'an took a sip of wine slowly, and asked as if he didn't understand the words behind the group of mermaids: "Why are you so anxious? Just so sure that he can really complete that experiment?"

Seeing Pei Zhao'an's laziness and reluctance to make a move, the mermaid noble standing in the front immediately became anxious.

"Why not!" the mermaid gritted her teeth excitedly and said, "He is Lu Yunwan, if he can say these words, he must be sure."

Pei Zhao'an put down the wine glass in his hand and laughed loudly.

Perhaps Lu Yunwan himself did not expect that at this point, the people who believed in him the most turned out to be this group of useless nobles.

But that's right, they had the most contact with Lu Yunwan, and they were the people who knew and understood him the most.

"Okay, okay," Pei Zhao'an gently patted the cheeks of the humans around him, and Senlu's eyes were filled with cold killing intent, "Everyone, the next grand event of the empire is coming soon."

The nobles didn't understand what he meant, and they all froze here.

Pei Zhao'an stood up, smiled and swept across the many nobles.

He gently dropped the wine glass in his hand, and said softly with the crisp sound of the wine glass falling to the ground: "Get ready to attend the funeral of the regent."
