In Ark Simulator, why do I always get a tough start?

Chapter 38 Long live my emperor
You might as well kill me!

Feeling deeply humiliated, the Black Queen struggled to stand up, her eyes blazing with resentment, as if she wanted nothing more than to punch Chen Qi.

However, with the "chains" of control in Chen Qi's hands, she had no power to resist whatsoever.

Chen Qi merely made a casual adjustment, and the Black Queen's legs immediately went weak, her body suddenly drooping again.

Ultimately, the Black Queen, unable to resist this binding force on her soul, could only glare at Chen Qi with a look of humiliation, resentment, and helplessness.

Moreover, it's unclear whether it was just his imagination.

He felt that there seemed to be a hint of mist in the Black Queen's eyes as she glared at him...

"Want to die? It's not that easy."

Suppressing the slight pang of conscience within him, Chen Qi, with the absolute rationality of a monarch, coldly smiled and said to the Black Queen:
"Let me tell you, I never intended for you to die from the very beginning."

“If you die, the nobles and commoners who oppose me will take you as an example and make you a banner to forever resist my rule.”

"But all I need to do is completely sweep away the prestige you've built up over the past decade."

"Then, those remaining forces that oppose me will be completely under my control."

"after all……"

With a devilish smile, Chen Qi deliberately approached the face of the Black Queen, who was trembling with anger but powerless to resist.

For a moment, the distance between the two was so close that you could hear them breathing.

Chen Qi could even clearly feel that when the Black Queen stared into his eyes, her breathing stopped for a moment.

"No nobles or commoners would believe that an empress reduced to slavery could lead them to overthrow my rule, would they?"

"By the way, you'd better not think about suicide either."

“If any of you commit suicide, I will strip the remaining one naked and hang him on a high tower in front of thousands of people, so that you will suffer humiliation and torment.”

"Of course, you can also choose to commit suicide together."

"So, whatever I do with your bodies, you won't be able to see them anyway, will you?"

"You, you—!!"

The Black Queen stared at Chen Qi, who was so close yet whom she could not attack. In extreme humiliation, she could only let out angry roars.

The Black Queen attempts to rebel against this spiritual constraint.

But no matter how hard she tried, her body resisted her will, and she couldn't do anything to harm Chen Qi, who was so close at hand.

This was the first time the Black Queen had felt hatred for being a man-made creation.

She has felt incredibly fortunate to be a creation, for it has given her innate strength.

But now she understands what the price of power is.

When her soul is bound by others, even having a free will becomes a luxury.

"I'll kill you! I'll definitely kill you!"

"Let me go, Qi! Release me from my bonds and let me die!"

"Accept the status quo, Your Majesty... no, my dear slave girl."

But Chen Qi didn't care at all about the Black Queen's hatred—if he was afraid of being hated by others, then he wouldn't have to be the Emperor of Letania.

If he were afraid of death, he wouldn't have chosen such an aggressive method to win.

Ultimately, all of this was just a simulation for him, a different kind of life.

What he wants to do is to steer this country in a better direction.

As long as the flame he ignited can be passed on, his life is nothing more than the most insignificant thing.

As for the Gemini Queens... they are indeed useful to me.

If I really want to tame the Gemini Queens and make them work for me.

Then he would need to completely reshape their self-esteem and personality from the inside out, so that they could rediscover their current identity.

Until they develop a genuine sense of awe for themselves.

Absolute force is only the first step in taming their will.

"Then now..."

"It is time to announce this great victory to the people of Letania."

Seeing that the Gemini Queens posed no threat to him, Chen Qi relaxed his control over them somewhat.

Soon, the twin queens, who had previously been forced to kneel on the ground, felt some of their strength restored.

Although it wasn't much, it was probably just enough to support their freedom of movement.

But it was already a stroke of luck that they were able to get away from kneeling on the ground.

But before the sisters could react, the pull of their souls made them uncontrollably follow Chen Qi.

Their destination was the observation deck at the top of the tower.

……

In Letania, the height of a tower symbolizes the status and power of the nobility.

After the "Golden Melody," with its thousand-year history, covered Letania, the towers became inextricably linked to the survival of Letania.

If Letania were a band, then the towers would represent the instruments that make up that band.

Those nobles of higher status deserve to control taller and more important towers.

[And in Letania, the tallest tower is undoubtedly the Twin Towers where the Twin Queens reside.]

Whoever stands atop this magnificent tower holds supreme power in Letania!

On this day, countless Leitanian civilians, guards, soldiers, and even nobles gathered at the base of the Twin Towers.

They were incredibly excited; they eagerly awaited their arrival.

They awaited the monarch they believed in, hoping he would secure the final victory.

Finally, they met—

[The first figure to emerge from the summit of those twin towers, the one they had all eagerly awaited.]

That is you.

[And soon, the Gemini Queen, whom you were leading, also appeared in the public eye.]

Behind you, Jian, Fremont, and a group of fully armed bodyguards and secret police officers all appeared on this spacious watchtower.

For a moment, the vast crowds gathered beneath the tower, stretching as far as the eye could see, fell into complete silence.

Aside from the silence, the rapid breathing, and the quickened heartbeats of the people, the vast Trilintelme seemed to have been robbed of its sound.

No one dared to utter a sound, no one dared to cheer.

They are waiting, waiting for you atop the tower to issue the declaration of victory.

[After several minutes of silence, you finally raised the Originium megaphone again and, amidst the anticipation of the crowd, uttered the voice that would change the history of Letania.]

"Rejoice, people of Letania!" "We have successfully chosen an emperor for you, one who will lead you to rise and victory—rejoice!"

The sound from the loudspeaker was loud enough for half the population of Triinttelme to hear clearly.

After your voice faded, there was a brief silence, followed by thunderous applause that seemed to spread like wildfire!

"it is good!!"

"It's the new emperor! Lord Qi is the new emperor!"

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

Beneath the tower, commoners, nobles, and soldiers alike chanted "Long live the Emperor!" in unison, wave after wave!

The sound was like thunder, shaking heaven and earth, seemingly moving even the mountains and rivers.

The common people waved their hands, cheering and shouting, as they rallied for their newly elected emperor, their voices rising and falling like a surging tide.

The soldiers, loyal to you, embraced each other excitedly, laughing heartily at the prospect of becoming heroes.

The infected were moved to tears, many even shedding tears of joy at your ascension to the throne, their hearts filled with relief and celebration that good days were finally coming.

At this moment, the entire nation was immersed in boundless joy and anticipation, as if a brand new Letania had already arrived.

The entirety of Triinttelme... no, the entirety of Letania, is trembling for you!

[And by your side, whether it's Mace, Fremont, or the Gemini Queens.]

Everyone was stunned by this magnificent sight, one they had never seen before.

[Most of them had witnessed firsthand the scene of the people's jubilation upon the new emperor's ascension to the throne.]

But, in such a grand scene as today, with millions of citizens genuinely rejoicing at the ascension of a new emperor, it was as if all suffering had finally come to an end.

This is absolutely unprecedented in the history of Letania.

However, what surprised the Gemini Queens even more was...

This scene, enough to ignite the passion of any emperor, is truly a moment to be recorded in history.

In their eyes, your expression remains indifferent, your eyes still so calm and undisturbed.

It's as if all of this is perfectly natural to you.

Under their watchful eyes, facing thousands of cheering citizens, you made only one move.

You raised your hand.

In an instant, it was as if a giant barrier had enveloped Triinttelme, sucking away all the air within.

[The countless people beneath the tower, upon seeing your raised hand, almost immediately ceased all movement, and all sound vanished.]

And what responds to you are countless hands raised high, unwavering in their resolve.

[One hand, a hundred hands, then ten thousand, a hundred thousand...]

The endless sea of ​​people, with countless hands raised high, symbolize their loyalty to you.

[On behalf of millions of Letanians, we are willing to follow you into that hellish place where we fight for our dignity!]

And you, once again, spoke.

"Fellow countrymen of Letania. Today, we stand at the threshold of a new era."

"Our country has experienced countless glories, splendors and triumphs. We once stood proudly on this land, and no one dared to trample on us or offend us."

"But as time goes by, we have to admit that we are declining, we are regressing, and we are being beaten and humiliated."

"But on this day, we finally ushered in the dawn of revival!"

"We are no longer a loose, fragmented aristocratic fiefdom, but an awakened, united, and powerful Leitanian Empire!"

“Our enemies have tried to steal what we deserve and to lead us to decline.”

"They may have succeeded for now, but we, the indomitable people of the Leitanian Empire! We will make them pay the price in blood for their plunder!"

"We will rebuild our country and restore our glory!"

“Every Leitanian will find their place in this great cause.”

"We will eliminate unemployment, revive the economy, and ensure that every family can enjoy dignity."

"We will build a just society, a powerful nation, an invincible Letania!"

"Our road will not be smooth, and our task will not be easy."

"But as long as we are united and steadfast in our beliefs, nothing can stop us from moving forward."

"Leytania's future is in our own hands, and we will create an unprecedented era of glory with our own hands!"

"Fellow countrymen of Letania, let us raise our banners together and march toward our common destiny."

"For Letania, for our descendants, for eternal glory, onward!"

"For victory!"

"—For victory!!!" XN
The raised hands and deafening responses were enough to intimidate even the bravest warriors and chill the most majestic emperors.

But when all of these become your strength, you will experience the overwhelming power that comes with it!

[But only now, witnessing this scene of unity and solidarity unfolding before her, has the Gemini Queen, standing beside you, truly understood one thing.]

Their failure was, in fact, predetermined.

It was at this moment that they truly understood where a nation's greatest strength truly comes from.

"Ugh……"

Queen Liselotte, the White Queen, sighed deeply as she gazed upon this truly shocking scene.

She understood that as long as Chen Qi lived in this world, she would probably never have the chance to see the day he fell from power.

He has completely won over the hearts and minds of the people of Letania.

From this day forward, whatever path he leads Letania down...

He will be the greatest emperor in Leitania, the only one of his kind.

As for Hildegarde, the Black Queen, gazing at this united force that could shatter her will, her initial resentment towards Chen Qi was replaced by a complex mix of emotions in her gaze.

What exactly is it about this man that makes him so charming?
How did he manage to accomplish this feat, which none of the previous emperors of Letania had ever achieved?
But at this moment, whatever deviations the sisters may have in their minds.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, after exchanging glances, they finally descended their bodies, each with their own thoughts, no longer bound by Chen Qi's "soul shackles".

With the twin queens leading the way, Mace, Fremont, the Golden Law Guard, and all the nobles beneath the tower bowed their heads before their king.

"Long live the Emperor!"

[Now you have finally completed your revenge.]

However, in pursuit of your revenge, you have ascended to the pinnacle of power, and now you bear the weight of a nation's destiny and the fate of countless lives.

Where will you take them? What path will you lead them down?

The future awaits your exploration, and your destiny will continue...
