Abyss Solo

The Empire and the New Federation actually didn't know what exactly Yang Ming did.

After the exchange meeting among the transformed people, the propaganda organizations of the two countries each had their own statements.

Empire's propaganda department:

The White Ghost ruthlessly humiliated the weak warriors of the New Federation, winning honor for the Empire while also revealing the fragile inner side of the New Federation beneath its false exterior.

'The New Federation is nothing more than a fledgling in the Milky Way, what strength does it have to bark wildly in front of our great Empire.'

New Federation's propaganda department:

The White Ghost and the Federation warriors had a friendly exchange, both sides engaged in a very professional tactical exchange, this exchange showcased the indomitable spirit of the New Federation warriors, even facing such a strong opponent, we can still unite and meet the true dawn and victory in hope.

'Victory will ultimately belong to democracy.'

On the Empire's social network:

The White Ghost stood among the wailing crowd, murmuring to himself.

'Only under the oppressive Emperor's Power of the Empire can true democracy and freedom of thought be born, only the soaring of thought can truly render eternal life to this ancient Empire.'

Triple win.

Upon discovering this widely circulated clip, the Empire's official made an urgent statement, categorizing this clip as a dangerous 'enemy propaganda video,' a 'conspiracy tool' fabricated using synthesis technology, and implemented a permanent ban across the entire network.

But this clip had already spread far and wide.

Pushed by Lyu, it would continue to be active in the corners of the Empire's internal network.

No way around it, the only method of propaganda that Yang Ming could think of was to take advantage of opportunities in the New Federation, he himself could not publicly proclaim 'The Empire is dead, new power shall rise.'

One must eat slowly, one step at a time.

The reaction of the Empire's hundreds of billions of citizens to this matter was the most concerning issue for Yang Ming.

The Empire's issues had long emerged and been suppressed by force for tens of thousands of years, nobody could say when this supernova would explode.

After the exchange meeting, the Imperial Investigation Team held a small celebration party.

Just as Yang Ming had thought, no Empire official paid attention to what he said.—It was thoroughly characterized as maliciously edited propaganda techniques by the New Federation.

Everyone was focused on how the White Ghost distanced himself from the New Federation using this exchange while also promoting the Empire's military might.

The Empire loves the martial, the celebration party was harmonious.

After this little episode, the investigation team's attention returned to the second meeting to be held the following morning.

After the previous missile attack incident, the dozen or so deputy directors of the investigation team were a bit shaken.

They were truly afraid of being blown to pieces by a missile here.

This time, the New Federation sent over the proposal for discussion ahead of time.

The proposal was completely consistent with Lyu's analysis, the New Federation wanted the White Ghost to conduct a patent investigation alone, allowing the White Ghost to achieve this in a manner 'that does not harm New Federation national security,' involving frontier technology related to intelligent machines.

The Imperial Investigation Team carefully discussed this plan and reported back to their respective bigshots.

Clearly, the Empire was also somewhat hesitant.

Letting the investigation team continue to stay in Minter City could delay time, but it had no significant political or propaganda value and could instead increase some risks.

Letting the White Ghost investigate alone, the Empire could make a big fuss internally and externally, serving as a compromise solution.

In the middle of the night, Yang Ming received an order from the Imperial Palace, the Old Emperor, absent for a long time, finally personally issued an instruction to Yang Ming.

'Only visit, do not speak.'

Boss Yang naturally understood the meaning of this order.

The right to explain this investigation was entirely reserved for after the investigation team returned to the Empire for an official announcement.

With everything ready, the second meeting arrived as scheduled.

To Yang Ming's surprise, for some unknown reason, Senator Allison did not appear this time.

Since both sides had established a basic understanding, this negotiation went much more smoothly.

After some serious bargaining, the New Federation proposed this compromise plan, the Imperial Investigation Team 'reluctantly' agreed within half an hour of discussion to allow their team leader, the White Ghost, to independently access the New Federation's National Patent Bureau's database for the investigation.

Once again, the focus of the entire scene gathered on Yang Ming.

Just when Boss Yang thought they were about to switch venues, an unexpected delight suddenly appeared.

The New Federation took out a set of virtual equipment.

"Mr. Ghost, out of respect for you and to safeguard our national security, we can only allow you to conduct this patent tour through virtual access."

Yang Ming immediately frowned, exchanged a few glances with Empire officials, and resumed the discussion.

However, the truth was, deep down, Yang Ming was nearly overjoyed.

What does they mean by wanting to sleep while someone hands them a pillow?

This bunch of New Federation officials really are overly clever, aren't they clearly trying to fulfill his Dark Star mission?

Yang Ming's spying tools had been simulated as his own hair, and what he originally intended was that as long as he had the chance to access the internal network of the New Federation's Patent Bureau, or even as long as he was within a few kilometers of the opponent's machine room, he could 'deploy' a few strands of hair, which would have the ability to reach the opponent's server range.

For example, each server needs power supply, they can add a physical port to these servers by attaching to the power circuit.
