From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 501 Someone is going to fight a desperate battle
Amber didn't say all this casually.

He naturally knew the plans of those old nobles. When he was doing the quest line on the Star Dragon Empire side in the game, he often came into contact with these "Old Saint Saunière Star Dragon Flag" guys in the side quests.

Contact of all kinds, friendly, unfriendly, verbal, physical
Therefore, Amber knew very well what kind of character these old noble groups had, and he had to admit that there were indeed some truly "good nobles" among them.

They were loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and usually focused on managing their own territories. There were not so many exorbitant taxes, but they vigorously developed various characteristic industries. The people in their territories lived a worry-free life under their rule, and they also loved them very much.

When the royal family needed their help, these people would not hesitate to bring their family's private soldiers and travel thousands of miles to Saint-Saunière to "serve the king".

But apart from this small group of people who can truly bear the title of "nobles", the other veteran nobles of the Star Dragon Empire are more "humanized" than each other.

All the 'bad deeds of the nobility' that you can imagine and cannot imagine can be easily found in these people, and most of them have committed multiple 'bad deeds' at the same time.

According to Amber, Dong Zhuo, Bloody Mary, and Elizabeth Bathory would have to pay tribute to the old nobles of the Star Dragon Empire in an orderly manner.

The only ones who could sit at the same table with them were the governors of the planets in the Federation or the top officials of the autonomous governments who were far away from home.

If we must use Amber to describe the moral level or crimes of these people, it is that if you put these people together, you can shoot with your eyes closed without worrying about killing an innocent person.

Although Lilith didn't know why Amber knew all the "deeds" of these old nobles of the Star Dragon Empire, since Amber said so, she would choose to believe it without hesitation.

However, she was still a little curious and asked, "If what the Master said is true, then isn't Norton II's current situation very dangerous? Not to mention whether he can achieve his 'wish in his heart', if Her Highness Agnes officially inherits the throne, he may not be able to keep the title of 'Regent'."

"You are right. The current situation for Norton II is very dangerous. It can be said that he has gone from being in a great position to being in a great position overnight."

Amber nodded and continued:
"In the original 'Regent Party', which was such a large force, not everyone was on the same page with him. Many of them were opportunists who changed their minds according to the situation. When it really came to the time to wield swords and guns, the only people that Norton II could rely on, apart from the troops under his control, were the Duke and William.

But in this situation, he still has the strength to fight and can even be said to have the upper hand. This is why Norton II has always appeared confident and not anxious at all, because the fleet and celestial fortress in his hands are his biggest trump cards.

But now, one of his most important military assistants has been lost. The chain reaction and the resulting power gap are much greater than we imagined, especially the morale and confidence of the 'Regent Party'. It can be said that the blow is huge."

Lilith: "So those old nobles don't plan to continue to fight him to death?"

"No," Amber shook her head.

"It should be said that those old nobles never thought of risking their lives from the beginning to the end. Even before the Regent and the royal family officially went to war, these old foxes were most likely waving flags and shouting to boost morale, and then waiting to distribute the fruits of victory. But now, these old foxes may not even want to wave flags and shout, because they have begun to worry that Norton II will eventually fail, and they are likely to be implicated and liquidated by Agnes."

Amber closed his eyes and thought. He carefully connected the mission plots related to the Star Dragon Empire in his previous life. After becoming a psychic, it was very convenient to read these memories. Even if they were quickly glanced at and "classified" as "unimportant information" by the brain, they could be recalled quickly.

After a moment, he opened his mouth and instructed Lilith:

"Lilith, please pay more attention to the movements of the old nobles recently. I guess the voices within the 'Regent Party' hoping for reconciliation with the royal family may become louder and louder with their instigation."

"Okay, Master. I will focus on collecting information in this regard." Lilith nodded. "If this happens, Master, how do you think the Regent will respond?"

"How to deal with it. Good question."

Amber sketched out a character portrait of Norton II in her mind. According to many plot parties, Norton II has always been a very contradictory character.

Born into a high-ranking noble family, he is willing to betray his class for his "ideals" and attempts to destroy the current bloated and corrupt political system of the Star Dragon Empire in the form of an "aristocratic revolution." While seeking equal rights for all citizens of the empire, he attempts to restore the glory of the empire.

But from another perspective, in order to achieve his ultimate goal, Norton II used all means possible, including rebellion, assassination, coercion, and inducement. As long as he could achieve his goal, there was no means that would not be used.

In the 'armed coup' that players in the previous life were familiar with, he could send his fleet to 'die' without hesitation, just to buy more time for the main fleet.

But at the same time, he paid extremely high pensions to the families of the fallen soldiers and ordered the nobles in the territories where these soldiers were located to take good care of the families of the fallen soldiers.

Therefore, in the eyes of the imperial high-ranking officials and nobles, Norton II was a tyrant, an ambitious man, and a conspirator.

But in the eyes of most grassroots soldiers and civilians, he is a good man who "loves his soldiers like his own sons" and a "honest official" who brings them hope.

It can be said that Norton II's reputation has long been in a dual state of "holy lord and tyrant".
As for the title of "revolutionary", Amber felt that it could not be easily used on Norton II, because no one knew what would happen if the regent succeeded.

Will the future of the Star Dragon Empire get better, or will it slide straight into the abyss?
No one knows, not even Amber knows. Maybe the chief writer of "Starry Sky OL" knows, but Amber can't ask now.

In the previous life, the Star Dragon Empire's massive civil war that swept across the entire territory ended abruptly after Princess Agnes and the old Emperor Frederico both disappeared and the Regent was assassinated by an unknown person, which also led to the final division of the Star Dragon Empire.
After thinking for a moment, Amber looked up at Lilith and said:
"The regent has now reached a point of desperate struggle. He may turn evil and take on a military adventure."
