Numerous citizens of the Empire left comments on the post, reveling in the moment.

"Did the Alliance dogs see that? Our Star Destroyer is about to come out. You'll be crying soon enough."

"Haha, the Gaomotos Empire is awesome. This time, the Alliance's treacherous minions won't dare say a word."

"Once the Star Destroyer comes out, we can sweep away all the trash."

"Tremble, trash! It's not too late to surrender now. Otherwise, we'll destroy your planets with a single shot, haha!"

...

In contrast, the citizens of the five allied nations were discussing it on other posts on the Star Ring Forum, filled with worry.

"How could the Gaomotos Empire have a Star Destroyer so soon?"

"That's way too fast."

"How are we supposed to go out in the future?"

"Is the Alliance eating shit? How come they don't have a single Star Destroyer?"

"Weren't we supposed to have peace talks?"

"Peace talks, my ass! Are you stupid? Do you think they look like they want to have proper peace talks with that attitude? They're probably either going to pressure the Alliance into making concessions, or be aggressively overbearing."

"Sigh, I guess the talks won't go well."

...

Although no one had ever owned a Star Destroyer before, that didn't stop everyone from trying to understand them.

Everyone knew how terrifying Star Destroyers were.

A single Star Destroyer could easily sweep away a dozen Level 5 battleships, and even do so without taking damage if commanded well.

The reason was simple: the Star Destroyer's radar overwhelmed Level 5 battleships, and its attack range and firepower far exceeded ordinary Level 5 battleships. Its speed was also super fast, and its energy shields and armor were stronger and tougher.

Most importantly, Star Destroyers had an incredibly terrifying signature ability: they could destroy planets!

Its main gun, when fully charged, could destroy a standard planet.

The difference between the two was qualitative.

"They have some ability, but it's nothing impressive. What they bought is just trash."

Forger - Devourer said coldly.

"They didn't announce the model. How can you be so sure? What if they got a more powerful one? The strength of the Gaomotos Empire is really extraordinary. Not only did they pay off their loans, they also have money to buy one."

Su Mo didn't dare to completely underestimate his opponents.

"Hmph."

Forger - Devourer snorted, without replying to Su Mo.

Su Mo continued to browse the forum, which was flooded with posts about the Gaomotos Empire's Star Destroyer.

It was giving Su Mo a headache. He felt like he was in trouble.

Forget it, I'll stop looking and go to sleep. The sky will fall on the tall ones.

Inside the Federal Building of Star Ring City, Arlais looked grave, hurrying towards the conference room with Hai Yue following closely behind.

"Has everyone arrived?"

Arlais asked, his brow furrowed.

"Speaker Lufat and the others have already arrived at the conference room. The current situation with public opinion is very bad."

Hai Yue explained the current situation.

"I understand."

Arlais then quickened his pace.

Soon, Arlais arrived at the conference room, where he saw Lufat and the others sitting in the conference room with very unhappy expressions.

He walked straight in and said, "Sorry for being late. I was dealing with some things."

"It doesn't matter. Those things don't matter. Speaker Arlais, you should have seen the announcement of the Empire Army on the Star Ring Forum, right?"

Maodo said with some frustration.

"I saw it. The situation is a bit bad. I didn't expect the Gaomotos Empire to make such a move on the eve of the peace talks."

Arlais nodded and said.

Lufat's face was full of worry, and he said, "It's not just bad, it's terrible. That madman is about to have a great weapon."

Amylo sighed and said, "I originally thought of having a good talk with them, to stop for a while, and everyone would develop well. It looks like it's going to be difficult!"

"You don't even need to think about it. They are so publicly promoting their weapons. It's obvious that they want to use force to force us to make concessions during the peace talks and sign some unfair and hegemonic treaties."

Memikas said irritably.

"What are you afraid of? If the demands they make are too excessive, we'll just break up. So what if they have a Star Destroyer? They can't really use a Star Destroyer against our main stars, right? Does he have the guts? Star Ring City will be the first to not let him get away with it."

Lufat said violently.

"He doesn't have the guts to attack our main stars, but he can block our ships from leaving."

Maodo said in a deep voice.

"Everything is going wrong. How did the Gaomotos Empire gain contributions so fast? We are still far behind."

Amylo shook his head and sighed.

Arlais thought for a long time and said, "Everyone, calm down first and don't panic. We really miscalculated this time. I didn't expect the Gaomotos Empire to prepare this move, but everyone don't be too flustered. Although the current situation is very pessimistic, it has not reached an extremely bad point. The Empire Army is flexing its muscles at this time. In a sense, they probably don't want to fight us either. They just want to use this method to seek a favorable position in the negotiations."

"What you said makes sense, but the key is that our current situation is very passive."

Maodo also flickered his eyes, his face full of sorrow.

"That's how things are, and we can only accept the current situation. But we can also do our best to narrow the gap."

Arlais explained steadily.

"What way?"

"We will also go to buy a Star Destroyer tomorrow."

"But our contribution points are not enough at all."

"We have to buy it even if it's not enough, even if we buy it back and put it there like scrap iron."

"That makes sense."

The next morning.

Sun Duoxiang was lying in bed, snoring soundly.

Hoo hoo~~

Dong dong~

A knock on the door woke Sun Duoxiang up. Sun Duoxiang jumped up from the bed with a jolt.

He looked at the alarm clock next to him, and it was only four in the morning. He shouted angrily, "Who is it? What's going on so early in the morning?"

Then Sun Duoxiang cursed and walked towards the door, opening it. When he saw the person standing at the door, his expression froze, and he immediately made a one hundred and eighty degree turn, changing his face.

"Boss, why are you up so early? Did something happen?"

"Stop sleeping, change into your mechanical armor, and bring some people with me."

Su Mo said in a deep voice.

"Okay, okay, I'll change right away."

Sun Duoxiang replied quickly.

Not long after, Sun Duoxiang gathered more than a thousand fierce and elite personnel, fully armed and ready to go, and appeared in front of Su Mo. Then he asked flatteringly.

"Boss, I've called all the people. Is it enough? If not, I'll call some more."

"That's enough, let's go."

Su Mo glanced at it and was quite satisfied.

Although Sun Duoxiang's subordinates looked a bit mixed, they were very good at fighting and ferocity.

"Boss, where are we going?"

Sun Duoxiang asked very curiously.
