Interstellar: Start as a cleaner.

Chapter 1334 Here comes another troublemaker? (5200+ words)

Yang Bo, disguised as John Lee, directly dispatched a Class C warship to escort more than 3,000 Alliance citizens back to the Alliance.

The warships will transfer these Alliance citizens to Alliance warships in the public star system.

Of course, some of these alliance citizens were also involved in criminal activities and submitted related clues to the alliance.

Then Yang Bo started arresting people in Gutra, and he was very grateful for the federal government's damn laws.

Federal laws are not like those of the Union.

According to the laws of the Alliance, no one can be arrested without solid evidence and without a judge's signed arrest warrant.

But the Federation is different; the ruling class of the Federation acts in its own self-interest!

You can be arrested as long as you are a suspect.

Of course, many people tried to resist, but they were met with cold machines and high-voltage electricity.

Yang Bo plans to arrest all former officials, members of parliament, and company shareholders in Gutrak.

Because these people must have some hidden assets.

However, Yangbo will not deal with these people personally; they will be handed over to the newly established Gutra State Parliament and the new government.

Yang Bo was certain that the group of people who came from Karaya would not let these people go!

Of course, Yang Bo also did some cleanup work while doing this, because the houses these people are now living in are likely already mortgaged.

Even the members of the propagandist killer organization that kidnapped Alliance citizens will be handed over to the new government!
Yang Bo looked at the environment of Gutrabang. This planet may not look polluted, but it is actually polluted because many of the prehistoric animals on it are not native to this planet.

Many prehistoric animals from other planets have been genetically modified.

However, relatively speaking, this planet has one of the few planets in the Federation with a relatively good environment, at least it is free from other radiation pollution.

These cities have also adopted high standards of environmental protection measures, mainly to attract tourists from the Alliance and the Empire!

With the matter in Gutram temporarily settled and nothing happening in March Star, Yang Bo took a stroll around Prince Holden's territory!
Then we arrived at Devon!
After arriving in Devon, Yang Bo disguised himself as Bart and went to the Circle Hotel.

The Space Technology Forum is now just waiting for Barthes' signature to conclude successfully.

There are many individuals and organizations participating in the Space Counting Forum.

However, only five technology licensed companies have been approved by the Space Technology Management Committee and the Empire, three of which are from the Empire and two from the Alliance.

All three companies in the Empire are newly established. One of them belongs to Su Ruoxin, one belongs to the official investment of Devonstar, and the other belongs to Allen.

The reason there are two alliances is because of the alliance's anti-monopoly efforts.

The two companies in the alliance are also newly established, and their shareholders are quite complex, consisting of the Liberal Party and the two major financial groups behind the Democratic Party.

The main reason for licensing the rights to the two companies in the alliance is to exploit the alliance's customers.

Otherwise, this technology licensing cannot be implemented within the alliance.

Of course, this technology license only applies to the modification of space mechs.

The real core technology is in the return-to-city device on Devon.

Devonstar's return flight system was jointly funded by five companies, with technical support provided by Bart's Space Technology Laboratory!
Bart's space technology laboratory holds a 60% stake, while the other five companies each hold an 8% stake!
The other five companies do not have actual control, only the right to financial supervision!

The cost of modifying each space mech is one billion credits.

There are two options for subsequent use: pay-per-use or pay-per-year.

Of course, there are a number of free uses per year; after that, you will be charged.

Then there are additional personal equipment options, which are customized services and belong to the category of protective armor, which is a type of armor!
The price ranges from one billion to five billion or even ten billion.

The main difference lies in the armor's attributes and the different application scenarios.

Moreover, the most crucial aspect of this protective armor is that Yang Bo needs to charge it with spatial energy.

This is also one of the most core technologies, and no one can replace it.

In other words, once these armors run out of energy, they need to be recharged at a cost.

Of course, as a suit of armor used by the wealthy, it is essential for saving lives and handling critical moments when energy is being consumed.

"Your Excellency Grand Duke Barth!"

"Your Excellency the Grand Duke!!" Everyone greeted Bart respectfully upon his arrival.

Yang Bo nodded, then picked up the pen and signed.

Everyone applauded upon seeing this, even though the mech teleportation technique still had some shortcomings.

The main drawback of the Mech Return Technique is that you need to summon the mech and then activate the emergency return button when you encounter danger.

This process takes about a few seconds.

The duration of this time depends mainly on whether the space mech is interfered with.

If the space mech experiences strong energy interference while returning to base, the time will be extended!
“Everyone!!”

"I believe in your choice today!"

"I have some good news to share with you all: our laboratory has made another breakthrough in space technology!"

"As for which aspect of the breakthrough it is, it's not convenient to disclose that right now," Yang Bo said, clapping along with everyone else.

Yang Bo will later launch a directional teleportation service, which means that these people can be directionally teleported to a certain spatial coordinate through space mechs or space vehicles.

This is actually quite simple: use equipment to open a spatial channel leading to a certain spatial coordinate, and then throw the vehicle into the spatial channel!

Of course, it sounds simple, but it's actually not very troublesome for Yang Bo.

Because Yang Bo is capable of spatial teleportation, his understanding of spatial energy is far superior to that of his peers.

However, we cannot guarantee the safety of others, because not everyone has Yang Bo's strength and abnormal physique.

Therefore, this technology does not have a significant impact on the security of the three countries, because the number of people delivered at one time is limited.

Of course, for the safety of certain individuals, it poses a great threat, because the other party could be thrown directly into your garden.

Upon hearing Bart's words, the others immediately asked, "What kind of technology are you referring to, Your Excellency Duke Bart?"

"This cannot be disclosed for the time being, as it is still in the experimental stage." Yang Bo certainly wouldn't reveal anything related to this.

"Your Excellency Duke Bart, how long will it take for the return-to-city device to be activated?" someone else asked with concern.

"It will be very soon. We have the technical expertise in this area, so don't worry!"

"However, everyone should still follow the precautions when using the Space Mech Return Technique!" Yang Bo knew that the actual time spent using this technology was very limited.

However, for wealthy people, this kind of life-saving technology may not be necessary, but it is indispensable!

Moreover, the international situation has changed too much; just look at how badly the situation in the Federation has deteriorated.

These wealthy people, thinking about what happened to the people in Guterres, felt that this technology was still very necessary.

The cost of the 1 billion yuan modification is not very high. The key is the later usage and maintenance costs, as well as the customization of personal equipment.

Yang Bo set the price so low mainly to allow more people to get on board.

If the price is too high, many wealthy people will still have to think twice.

In any case, according to Yang Bo's estimate, few people use this technology.

This is why Yang Bo placed the return device on Devonstar.

On one hand, there are secrecy requirements; on the other hand, if the return devices are set up on various planets, these guys might use the technology whenever they want!
Even though this technology has various limitations, such as not being able to be reused in a short period of time.

The current return point is on Devon Star, so these people can't easily attempt it!
Because it would take them a long time to get back to where they live and work from Devon!

Of course, setting up return-to-city devices on various planets would require a huge investment.

Because the other party entered Devon Star using a space mech teleportation technique, the Devon Star Council passed a special law.

That means those who arrive at Devon Star via the mech teleportation technique can complete the relevant procedures later!

The five companies had long ago divided up their territories. The three companies of the Empire and the company officially invested in by Devonstar only had Devonstar in their market scope, mainly accepting customized services from the Federation or other wealthy individuals.

The reason for having a company officially invested in by Devonstar participate is mainly to facilitate supervision and management.

As for Allen and Su Ruoxin, they had already divided up the market.

The two companies in the alliance also divided the market, because the factions on each administrative planet in the alliance were different. The only one without technology licensing was the Federation, mainly because the Federation's current situation was unstable.

Then came the celebration party, the construction of the remaining return-to-town devices, and the modification of the space mechs.

The modification of the space mech mainly involves upgrading the internal facilities and communication systems, and adding some protective devices.

Of course, these wealthy individuals who underwent the modification had to send their space mechs to Devon Star, because each space mech had a different spatial frequency!
Anyway, as a Grand Duke, Bart couldn't possibly risk his own livelihood.

It was precisely because Bart was a Grand Duke that wealthy people believed in this technology; they simply wouldn't have believed it if it were from anyone else.

These wealthy individuals also fear unforeseen human-caused accidents.

After all, every wealthy person has competitors. Bart was not only the Grand Duke, but he also had no competition with others in many fields.

The title of Grand Duke is enough; after all, the nobles of the empire still value prestige.

"Bart, I need to talk to you about something!" Su Ruoxin said as she saw that Bart had finished greeting the others.

"Sorry!" Yang Bo was chatting with Allen when he heard Su Ruoxin's words and apologized.

Then Su Ruoxin took him to the top floor of the Roundabout Hotel, which was where Su Ruoxin lived!
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and Yang Bo naturally understood what Su Ruoxin meant by calling him that.

Even though Su Ruoxin had two helpers, she was still completely subdued by Yang Bo.

"You haven't come to see me for so long!"

"Do you still have me in your heart?!" Su Ruoxin hugged Bart tightly and asked in an annoyed tone.

"Stop fooling around!" Yang Bo patted the other person on the shoulder.

When Su Ruoxin heard Yang Bo's name, she couldn't say anything more.

The two first met at a masquerade ball, and now they're together because of mutual benefit!
We're all adults, and all nobles at that. Feelings are nothing compared to the power of self-interest.

"Hmph!" Su Ruoxin still snorted.

"How is your royal family doing lately?" Yang Bo asked again about the royal family.

"It's still a mess!"

"Another rumor is growing stronger: that Father Emperor is raising another hidden crown prince!"

“The situation within the royal family has stabilized for now, and everyone is investigating this hidden crown prince!” Su Ruoxin said.

Yang Bo had discussed this issue with Su Ruoxin before, and then Yang Bo did some research and found that there was a pharmacist named Yang Tianming who seemed to have some problems.

Yang Bo simply stopped paying attention to the matter after that.

Because the Crown Prince not only needs the Emperor's approval, but also the approval of others.

It requires the approval of the noble council, the royal family, and the people.

Yang Bo guessed that Yang Tianming was likely a backup candidate for emperor, but he didn't expect the crown prince to run into trouble so quickly.

Moreover, the emperor is the most ruthless of all; perhaps the crown prince was merely used to draw attention away from the emperor.

Because any underhanded actions by others are aimed at the former crown prince, and have no impact on this backup candidate for the crown prince.

Yang Bo hadn't yet figured out what methods the emperor would use to gain the approval of the people and the nobles through the crown prince!
"That's hard to analyze!" Yang Bo wasn't sure about the matter, so he didn't share his guess.

And there's something even more crucial: his own interests outweigh everything else when it comes to Su Ruoxin.

It's best not to reveal the identity of this hidden crown prince, as it might have unexpected consequences.

"Can you please not leave today?" Su Ruoxin asked again, her tone pleading.

"I can't stay here with you for too long, but satisfying you one more time is no problem!" Yang Bo chuckled, then rolled over and started moving.

After the party ended, Yang Bo left looking all high and mighty.

As Yang Bo left, he gave Allen a thumbs up, because Allen had only just finished the party after Yang Bo came out of the presidential suite.

The return device for the mech teleportation spell was designed and built by White and others.

Yang Bo doesn't need these things.

As for the clients' space mechs, the first ones that need modification are Allen and Su Ruoxin's space mechs.

After returning to Bart's manor, Yang Bo stayed there for another night.

The next day, Yang Bo arrived at Bart's laboratory and continued building robots.

Yang Bo created the first generation of robots himself, and then used the first generation of robots to create the second generation of robots!
The second-generation robots will then manufacture the third-generation robots, and the main difference between these generations is the level of precision!
The manufacturing process of the warships mainly involved second- and third-generation robots.

The manufacturing of energy engines mainly focuses on second-generation robots.

Then Yang Bo focused on the affairs of Prince Holden's territory in the Second World.

Prince Holden's father found him a wife, a princess from a neighboring country.

Yang Bo had already refused the offer when he impersonated Prince Holden last time.

However, King Holden took it upon himself to not only bring the princess over but also to send her to his territory for the wedding.

Moreover, the princess was escorted not only by knights from a neighboring country, but also by the Royal Knights.

Yang Bo suspected that the king and those nobles had ill intentions.

They probably want to take this opportunity to kill me.

Because the other party has already bribed pirates to target them.

Now Yang Bo is considering a question: should he let the players go out and plunder?

Prince Holden's territory has two pirate warships that have been repaired by the player. The sails have been redesigned and more pulleys have been added to make the warships faster!

Of course, these players didn't go out to plunder ordinary people, but rather nobles.

Because in the Second World, only nobles and nobles existed, and only merchants with powerful backers could own merchant ships!

After thinking it over, Yang Bo decided to let go!

So he had the steward relay the order.

In the last battle against the pirates, Prince Holden bestowed many knighthoods upon the prince.

These knights had titles, but unfortunately, they didn't own any land.

That's enough for Knight's game players to swagger around in real life.

Moreover, many of the knights who were granted fiefdoms by Yang Bo's game players met tragic ends, so the knights in Prince Holden's territory had no intention of going out to work independently.

Yang Bo rarely holds meetings in his capacity as Prince Holden, so it was quite novel for these gamers to attend the territory council meeting convened by Prince Holden, and many of them started live streaming it.

"For the sake of the territory's development, I, the prince, have issued two plundering licenses, but the territory will have to share seventy percent of the plundering revenue!"

"Two raiders are following two warships!" Yang Bo announced the news directly.

Prince Holden is quite mysterious among gamers because he is said to be studying some kind of occultism.

Upon hearing Prince Holden's words, the gamer knights below shouted in unison, "Pick me! Pick me!"

"You knights, only two-thirds of you may board two warships, and the remaining one-third may remain in the territory."

"Once the warships return, the remaining third of the knights can be sent on an expedition, while the returning knights will recuperate and assist in defending the territory." Yang Bo made the arrangements directly, which was to divide these noble players into three groups.

The main concern is that if these gamers go out and break up, they might encounter a storm or something similar and be wiped out.

"Form your own teams and report to the steward for assignments." Yang Bo delegated most of the territory's affairs to the steward!
The main reason is that Yang Bo himself doesn't have time to stay here for an extended period of time.

"I don't care whose things you're taking!"

"But it's best not to give anyone a handle to use against you!" The gamers were overjoyed to hear Prince Holden say this.

Because plundering is often targeted at other countries, and even hostile ones at that!

Prince Holden's statement means that he can even steal from his own country, as long as he doesn't leave any evidence against him.

Those gamers watching the live stream were filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment towards the players in Prince Holden's Domain!
However, it is now more difficult to come to Prince Holden’s territory, because the kingdom no longer sends outsiders to Prince Holden’s territory!

After making the arrangements, Yang Bo rode around on Prince Holden's unicorn for a while, then used the excuse of studying the occult to return to March Star.

Yang Bo discovered that someone was coming to see him—Sophie from the Pierre family. This woman knew Yang Bo's identity as a super hacker, so she planned to come find him secretly and had already set off.

Because Yang Bo released a spiritual seed into Sophie's bodyguard, Shirley, and it seemed that Shirley wanted him to do something!
Yang Bo was a little puzzled. What could the Pierre family have that he couldn't handle?
