Everyone in the live broadcast room was excited. Even if someone didn't know Meng Yi, they would immediately be told what an excellent general Meng Yi was.
The star beasts he led have saved countless planets and galaxies.
Li Shu was actually able to invite General Meng Yi!
This was simply unbelievable to them.
Everyone waited quietly, their eyes fixed on the live broadcast room. Li Shu gestured to the side and slightly shifted his position, giving up the spot facing the camera.
Meng Yi was dressed in formal attire, his brows stern. He looked directly at the camera, and responded to the crowd's voices with a bit of gentleness and solemnity, his eyes complicated.
"Hello everyone, I am Meng Yi, the captain of the Mengla planet. I used to work in the military as General Meng Yi, and I am a subordinate of Marshal Huo Wei."
He did not shy away from his background and was straightforward.
The live broadcast room fell silent for a moment.
Marshal Howie is the most respected person in the galaxy, but also the one who cannot be mentioned the most.
Huo Wei's identity is even more complicated now, but Meng Yi called him out directly, which surprised everyone.
Meng Yi's eyes were firm.
"I agreed to come here, Mr. Li Shu, not only to formally thank him for his outstanding efforts and sacrifices for our planet Mengla, but also to clarify."
"The Empire didn't send troops to help us. On the contrary, in order to compete for credit, they even called me privately during the most critical moment of Mengla Planet. I recorded all of this and everyone can watch it."
Meng Yi pressed the light computer on his wrist and said in a deep voice, "Retrieve the video footage with the Empire."
The video slowly unfolded, and the person opposite was an official of the royal family. He was still wearing special royal clothing and didn't even take off his hat.
There was arrogance in his expression, and he spoke as if giving alms.
"Meng Yi, let me tell you, as long as you agree to our terms, we will immediately transfer you back to the Imperial Star and no longer let you guard a worthless Mengla Star."
"You have to understand that Mengla is a tourist planet on the edge. Every time a swarm of insects hits, Mengla is in danger. Not to mention that Mengla hasn't been profitable in recent years."
Meng Yi frowned, but looked at the official with an unchanged expression.
"What are your conditions?"
"Admit that it was the Emperor Star that helped you! Then you can regain your former glory."
The glory of the past.
There was a hint of disdain in Meng Yi's eyes.
"Admit that it was Emperor Star who helped us? You guys didn't even come here!"
"The Empire didn't send any troops at all! It was Mr. Huo... Mr. Lishu and Mr. Chen Liang who fought the insect swarm for us in Mengla!"
"I won't agree to your conditions!"
Captain Meng Yi, I've already told you that as long as you admit that the troops coming here are from the Empire, you can be transferred back to the Imperial Star."
After hearing this in the live broadcast room, I could no longer understand.
Meng Yi pursed his lips, looked towards the live broadcast room, and said solemnly to everyone in the live broadcast room: "I rejected them. I told them that this is impossible. I will not agree with their approach and I refuse it."
"I don't need anyone to restore my glory. I believe that what I have done is in everyone's hearts!"
"I will never let down the benefactor of our Mengla planet!"
Meng Yi paused, his eyes sharp.
"I don't know how many planets they called, but please don't believe it. Be prepared! At least we in Mengla didn't wait for the imperial army!"
"What we waited for was Mr. Li Shu's army and rescue! It saved us from even greater casualties in Mengla and saved the lives of ordinary people on the planet Mengla!"
The live broadcast room was silent for a moment, and almost half a second later, a barrage of comments surged out, and everyone angrily accused the Empire and supported Meng Yi and Li Shu.
[The Empire has always been like this! So hypocritical, they do nothing but take credit for other people's achievements!]
"I believe Admiral Meng Yi! I've been closely monitoring the Zerg Tide battlefield, and I haven't seen any Imperial troops approach! I can testify to this!"
"Me too. I trust Li Shu. After all, he's the only one who truly gave us something, right? If it were someone else, how much would they charge for these plants?"
- Can we afford it?
Everyone quietly chose their teams, and no one believed in the Empire anymore. But if they didn't believe in the Empire, what should they do now?
Without assistance, can we all just wait to die?
After the anger, the people in the live broadcast room fell into panic.
They didn't know what to do.
"What will we do without the Empire's aid? Our planet is within the range of the Zerg swarm! Are we left to wait for death?"
[I don't want to wait for death! Host, do you have any good ideas?]
Li Shu raised his head and looked at the comments in the live broadcast room. Those comments seemed to be desperate and asked questions to Li Shu.
Li Shu's brows were tightly furrowed, and there was a hint of soothing in his voice.
"The only solution I can think of right now is for everyone to unite. Planets not within the swarm's range have ample time to prepare. I hope everyone can first support nearby planets attacked by the swarm and try to divert the swarm to inanimate planets."
"We will also pursue the Zerg swarm, prevent it from destroying planets with life, and try to protect every planet."
"Please everyone do your job, don't panic, don't make a scene, wait quietly for instructions, and call for help in time."
"The Empire may not arrive, but we will!"
This last sentence spread across the Internet in an instant.
The royal family never expected this to happen, and they never thought that Meng Yi would actually record it!
When Meng Yi's recording put the royal family in a passive position, everyone was trapped in the office and hardly dared to go out.
Because outside there were people surrounding them, demanding an explanation from the royal family.
Whenever they show up, they will be confronted by the media and the public, most of whom have relatives on other planets.
"Come out! Come out right here!"
"Give us an explanation! Why did you lie to us?"
Qiao Lusi's face showed a trace of fear. He raised his head and looked out the window anxiously, saying to the emperor, "Father, what should we do now? What should we say?"
He glared hatefully at the disheveled Leia and snorted heavily.
"Bah! It's all Leah's fault for coming up with such a bad idea! If she hadn't suggested calling Meng Yi, how would we have been exposed by the recording?"
Leah looked at him angrily.
"Qiao Lu Si! Don't be so naive. Didn't you stop me at the time? I'm telling you! Don't slander me in front of the Emperor!"
The emperor's face was as gloomy as water. He glared at Qiao Lusi and Liya fiercely, his eyes carrying a hint of coldness. He said to them, "Shut up! Is this the time to quarrel? Why don't you think of a solution quickly? Do you want to be expelled from the royal family together?"
The emperor was really capable of doing such a thing, and the two of them shut up instantly.
