You became an emperor by letting me AFK.

Over the years, the development of the Daqian Army has been outward-oriented, enabling it to provide timely assistance to various parts of the world. The emergence of aircraft carriers has further strengthened this capability, as the range of aircraft they carry is equivalent to their firing range, allowing them to easily reach relatively inland areas.

"Enough, now is not the time for a large-scale war with the Empire. The Heavenly Dao is coming soon, so let's be quiet and conserve our strength."

The demons ultimately had no choice but to swallow their losses and move on to other star sectors.

"The pollution efficiency to other worlds has decreased considerably. Do you have any clues?"

"Roar!"

"Forget it, it would be stupid of me to rely on you bunch of idiots."

“There’s a problem. The psionicists of the Great Qian are too quiet. They’re not even involved in the battles of the material universe. They must be causing trouble somewhere else.”

"Strengthen the human kingdoms we've infiltrated, otherwise they'll be useless."

"The missionary broadcasts from Daqian are on again."

...However, they soon discovered that this was unusual; the mysterious psychic information contained visual information, which was clearly the appearance of a Heavenly Ritual, and naturally contained mystical symbols.

People who receive this spiritual energy are subdued by the power of the Way of Heaven and deeply admire it.

What kind of scene is this?

Because subspace interferes with the image information to some extent, there is a certain degree of distortion, making it incomplete, but it still gives people a sense of sacredness.

The inner sanctum is testing the effects of transmitting psionic images.

The first demonstration involved Zhuang Qing and Ge Gentana in person, and their performance proved to be excellent. Under the guidance of the priests led by Ruan Yue, the psionic information on the screen was rapidly disseminated.

At the same time, the golden sun above their heads was also rippling.

That counts as verbal proselytizing?

Gedentana clicked her tongue in amazement and exclaimed, "Our current technology can be considered to have developed in tandem with audio and video, but unfortunately, they are not synchronized; basically, each is speaking independently."

"It's already quite good, and I will improve the technique."

They continued to explore this novel form of advertising, as it was indeed quite interesting to use.

Feng Tianyin also felt the continuous increase in the power of faith, and her promotion in the subspace took another step forward. More and more star worlds gradually learned about the concept of the Heavenly Dao Sect and became believers.

enough.

Missionaries can't even reach those far away, so how can you expect them to believe in you? It's unrealistic and impossible. Therefore, the High Priest only asks that the other side first gain awareness, and then fill in the rest gradually. On the other hand, within the world of Terra, faith has actually been further purified.

The impact of the Fenglangjiao incident exceeded expectations.

Several city-states and small kingdoms extended invitations to the temple for cooperation, hoping to engage in military cooperation, trade preferences, and aid in its construction...

The documents flew in like snowflakes.

Some senior permanent clerks felt that the other party was really taking advantage of them, while others believed that as long as they managed things well, it would be a win-win situation, and some even thought it would be better to simply infiltrate and control them directly.

Feng Tianyin did not participate in the discussion, but instead agreed to some of the conditions.

She chose to respond to everyone's enthusiasm, after all, her perspective was that "Terra will be one in the future".

Daqian's expanded cooperation has sparked a new wave of enthusiasm.

The various city-states realized that, in terms of both subjective will and objective conditions, only the Great Qian Empire could truly protect them.

It doesn't matter which country it is from.

As mentioned in the interview at the time, "human supremacy" ultimately leaves everyone with only one identity in the face of warp contamination. Those monsters don't care about the specifics; they treat everyone as food.

Their so-called family heritage, local sentiment, and city-state culture are irrelevant.

To put it extremely, it wouldn't matter if it were incorporated into the empire.

Throughout its development, the Great Qian Empire has annexed other territories, whether actively or passively, without preserving their cultures. It is inclusive and profound, yet the High Priest has never been seen specifically eliminating anyone.

All she needs is for you to believe in the Way of Heaven.

Moreover, with the times changing dramatically and humanity facing the threat of subspace, that kind of persistence no longer exists.

"We should strengthen our cooperation with Daqian, only then will they protect us."

"Would the temple agree to something that would just be a waste of money?"

"Agreeing to a small portion of the cooperation is enough. I think the conditions are generous enough. That high priest is indeed benevolent."

"As long as cooperation is done properly, we can achieve a win-win situation, and the current technological conditions are sufficient."

"Try to be optimistic."

A person cannot stand without integrity. Over the years, the high-ranking officials of the temple, led by Feng Tianyin, have been too reliable. Their consistent style inspires trust, which is why many are seeking cooperation with them. The battle at Fenglangjiao has achieved a propaganda effect, making all parties feel the strength and determination of the Great Qian Army.

This round of the Heavenly Dao Festival is sure to be very lively.

【hint】

The "Fenglang Cape Landing Operation" is escalating.

[Description: The decisive and rapid long-range military projection capabilities of the Daqian Army shocked the world. The rapid offensive and defensive battles surrounding this city-state are worthy of being a model for military textbooks of various countries. The initial application of aircraft carriers, amphibious operations, and combined arms tactics has had a profound impact.]

[Effect: Military Experience +10%, Political Influence +10%]

A pop-up window suddenly appeared!

Their low probability of appearance drew Xia He's attention, as they often brought additional buffs within a round, thus qualifying as independent multipliers.

Based on the tone of the event description, wouldn't it be a very high evaluation to say, "I will resign to study this war"?

How tall is it?

She proactively accessed war information, including but not limited to parameters, visuals, and first-person perspective data, and read through everything. It was indeed a brilliant rapid-response operation.

Even Xia He, a complete novice, was thrilled after watching it.

Who hasn't learned a little about military affairs after surfing the internet for a long time? Clearly, the Daqian's tactical iterations have reached the level of the late World War II era.

"The little robot must have started thinking about nuclear weapons; the technology must have at least been approved as a project."

A quick glance confirmed it.

[Top Secret Imperial Information: Research and development of heavy water and enriched uranium technologies is progressing smoothly]

This project will continue to generate technology points.

As one of the landmark technologies that will go down in history, unlike ordinary technologies that require scientific research capabilities, atomic energy is a special project that is a systems engineering project that coordinates a large amount of data, and is itself an improvement in science and technology.

Yeah.

Having more trump cards means more confidence. Although Feng Tianyin's plan seems to prioritize energy applications over weaponization, it's all the same thing anyway.

After all, the High Priest's output in the material universe is no less powerful than that of a nuclear bomb.

Even after gaining the qualifications to ascend to godhood, Feng Tianyin dared not remain in her complete form in the mortal world. She had to divide her spiritual power into subspace, otherwise her own mass would easily attract extraterrestrial objects.

It wouldn't be enough to turn Terra, which was reinforced by the Heavenly Dao, into a black hole, but it would certainly attract meteorites and cause a mass extinction on the Earth's surface.

She doesn't lack destructive power, but rather the energy from nuclear power plants.

The psionic energy is still a bit too much.

Xia He has refocused her attention on the war itself, and the aftershocks are still unfolding, with media outlets around the world doing their best to report on them.

The Qianlong Emperor's massive investment in newspapers, radio, and television propelled the media age into a frenzy, forcing potential competitors to catch up and refusing to relinquish their dominance in the public sphere. Even so, the reporting was predominantly objective, often lavishing praise.

Operation Wind and Waves reveals a glimpse of future warfare.

A variety of cutting-edge weapons were showcased; let's take stock of the rising stars who made outstanding contributions in this amphibious landing operation.

The war has changed forever.

Humans will have the ability to eradicate their Families throughout the entire world of Terra.

The temple officials stated that they would not make any military security commitments to any partners, nor would they accept any alliance-related proposals, as that would not align with the consistent diplomatic principles of the Great Qian Dynasty.

The High Priest attends an awards ceremony to confer medals upon the heroes…

Very detailed.

The stone stirred up a thousand waves. Everyone was amazed by the swift victory of the Daqian army, marveling at their success. Even Xia He was surprised.

The cumulative effect of long-term national policies has unexpectedly created such a powerful force.

Let's keep it up in the next round.

It seems that not much change is needed; just adjust the focus and add some technology.

Xia He was also satisfied with the temple's leadership's steadfastness. It was right not to blindly accept Feng Tianyin as a vassal. In any case, they had already controlled them economically and culturally, so it didn't matter whether they formed an alliance politically or militarily.

The empire will not allow its decisions to be swayed by its subordinates.

Therefore, many small countries and city-states that hoped to become complete vassals were met with a rebuff. The other party was not tempted at all, and the rational high priest would not change because of a little flattery.

As usual.

As long as globalization continues, they will naturally gravitate towards empires.

The Great Qian Dynasty is like the gravitational pull of a star, destined to draw the surrounding stars toward itself; all it needs to do is maintain order.

As long as order is maintained, they will assimilate themselves.

"Have the countries of the Western Continent not made any statements?"

Xiahe was actually more concerned about the affairs of this land than the reaction of the Daqian mainland, after all, it had the potential to compete with the empire.

Her gaze quickly shifted from an overhead view to a microscopic one.

As expected, he found the perspective of the meeting venue, indicating that there were many believers of the Heavenly Dao Sect among them, making it easy for him to possess them. However, faith does not entirely represent one's own interests, and many people still harbored suspicion towards the Empire.

For example, Holy Roman Empire.

"...Interesting. This person has traces of corruption on them, but they are very subtle. It seems that more than one evil god has used their methods."

Even if the rank of those who are promoted is difficult to discover, there are no secrets in the eyes of Heaven. Of course, there is no need to fight and kill them; let nature take its course first.

Anyway, the little machine must have already decided that it would deal with the other party regardless of whether the other party was considered an evil god's spy.

However, Feng Tianyin focused her attention on the subspace first.

"They must be after us."

The people from the Shinra Empire spoke first, not forgetting to list a series of threats.

"Now that the Daqian Navy has occupied Fenglang Cape, it has also taken control of a waterway, which could threaten our transport routes at any time."
