Galaxy Domination Guide

Ailuwei was very fortunate to become the first female prisoner in the Star Alliance military prison.

Her drab prison garb contrasted with her exquisite and delicate curves, an uncommon temptation for many. Coupled with her bewitching face and her current tearful appearance, she could probably move any man to pity.

However, Bai Zhongqi's expression was grave, his gaze toward the woman icy.

The Princess Ailuwei, who knew how to use her beauty to her advantage, had taken a particularly submissive stance. With tears dripping down, her voice trembling, she said, "Your Majesty, I know it was wrong to act on my own on the battlefield. I beg Your Majesty to spare me. You promised that by joining your Empire Army, I could avenge myself against the criminals of the Northern Continent Kingdom.

At that moment, I could only think of revenge when facing the despicable wretch who killed my brother. Please understand Ailuwei's rashness; from now on, I will never make the same mistake."

Bai Zhongqi was blind to her pitiful display. He said, "Military orders are absolute; the Empire Army's actions have their own rules. You disobeyed superior orders and acted on your own accord, jeopardizing the mission. You cannot escape the blame."

Ailuwei looked up, her tear-stained eyes blurry and shoulders trembling. She said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me as it's my first offense. For you, I was willing to join the army, to learn to pilot the aircraft, to cast off my glamorous dresses and don a military uniform to become a warrior. Does this not prove my feelings for you?"

Bai Zhongqi felt a pang of irritation. He could see right through Ailuwei's scheme; he simply had no interest in her.

Despite being a woman, she suffered from severe "straight-guy cancer." She was probably spoiled to an extreme, too high on herself, believing her efforts to lower her status and become an armed vessel pilot were such grand gestures that she had to flaunt them before Bai Zhongqi for recognition.

Bai Zhongqi wanted to tell the Princess that even if she were attempting to seduce the Imperial Chancellor, she could at least show some genuine effort. Even if her beauty scored nine out of ten points, with such an act, no man of sound mind would want her.

Bai Zhongqi said sternly, "Military law is military law. You have violated the regulations, and you must pay the price. Since you chose to join my army, you must abide by the laws of the Empire Army. You requested to see me, and I agreed, considering that it was I who arranged your entry into the forces. But even I will not bend the law for you, allowing you to escape a military court's trial."

At this point, Ailuwei seemed to realize the gravity of the situation. She said hastily, "Chancellor, I will leave the military. I am Princess Miryua, your army has already entered Miryua, and I can contact the nobility to pledge their allegiance to you."

Bai Zhongqi stood up and walked away, his parting words cold, "I have no need for the use of a princess from a fallen nation. Those nobles of Miryua, if they do not surrender, they will be destroyed. For me, it would be more convenient if they were all dead."

Struggling, Ailuwei tried to reach out and grab Bai Zhongqi's arm, but before she knew it, Bai Zhongqi's Guard Officer, Sacred Falcon, flashed out, standing between her and the Princess Ailuwei. Ailuwei was startled. The Sacred Falcon, with her wheat-colored skin and athletic figure, was full of strength. Her eyes were cold and merciless. Stay connected via empire

Ailuwei felt that if she made one more unnecessary move, this woman would crush her.

Bai Zhongqi gave one last look back at the scene and said, "Let the prisoner return to where the prisoner belongs."

The Sacred Falcon bowed deeply, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Despair overtook Princess Ailuwei's face; she could not believe she would meet such an end. Before meeting Bai Zhongqi, she was full of confidence, believing he would surely pardon her. She even neglected what the lawyer assigned to her by obligation had said—that she was facing an extremely passive situation.

If the military court found her guilty of defying military orders and endangering military operations, depending on the circumstances, she could be sentenced to the death penalty. Even if she received a lenient sentence, she could be facing imprisonment for over fifteen years.

The enforcement of military law on Iridium Star was especially strict; most of the crimes recorded in the military code could be punished by death.

Bai Zhongqi was indifferent to the fate of the beautiful princess being euthanized—that was what she deserved. In the face of the Empire's authority and law, her beauty held no value.

Ailuwei's originally demure expression turned to one of furious madness. She pointed at Bai Zhongqi and cursed wildly, "You will not succeed! You off-world scum, the lords of the six Mage Towers and the Holy Magus will bury your Empire completely. Don't think you are so powerful—no matter what technology you have, the six Mage Towers and the Holy Magus possess the power to annihilate the world.

You and your Empire will ultimately fall; I curse you!"

Bai Zhongqi's brows furrowed slightly, having no interest in dealing with such a shrew. The Sacred Falcon, though slightly annoyed, refrained from any excessive reaction; as an artificial intelligence, she would take no unwarranted actions. A normal person might have slapped Ailuwei in response, but the Sacred Falcon's intelligence core assessed that Bai Zhongqi had not issued such an order.

A slap would accomplish nothing. An artificial intelligence does not partake in superfluous deeds.

The Sacred Falcon, dragging the struggling princess, handed her over to the military justice personnel.

Bai Zhongqi's mood was slightly soured. By throwing the princess and her people into the Miryua battle camp, he had actually been trying to make use of the manpower from Emerald Sea Star. In Infia, he even ordered the selection of compliant Shangduohan prisoners of war to form a new unit.

It was the same for the tribe people—the majority of the tribes on the green prairies had already submitted to him. With the support of people like Hasan, the tribe people found it easier to join Iridium Star than those from the Northern Continent. Bai Zhongqi even received support from over a dozen tribal Prophets.

For utilizing these people from Emerald Sea Star, Bai Zhongqi had no worries. They were all equipped with various compliance mechanisms, preventing them from attacking allies and immediately ceasing function if they showed insubordination. After the princess's incident, any action that exceeded orders would be automatically vetoed by the equipment system and not executed.

While this suppressed the soldiers' autonomy and could even create certain risks, Bai Zhongqi was more concerned with their compliance.

As for the six Mage Towers and the legendary Holy Magus that the princess railed about, Bai Zhongqi was not particularly worried. So far into the war, the impact of individual Star Warriors on the course of war was insignificant. Bai Zhongqi had already hunted over a hundred Star Warriors. He even considered launching an assault on the Mage Towers to round up all the Star Warriors therein.

It was at this moment that the Mage Tower reached out to the Empire willingly.
