Chapter 1644: Chapter 528: The Effectiveness of the Insect Swarm Disguise Plan (6k)
A week later, Roes Civilization Mother Star
"Your Excellency, the President, the transformation fleet for the colonization star in the Colorado Star System has already arrived, and the transformation operation has begun."
"Hmm, that’s good. Make sure to urge them to complete it as soon as possible; there must be no issues.
This matter concerns the future of our civilization."
The President’s expression turned solemn, and the pressure conveyed through his eyes instantly straightened the posture of the reporting subordinate.
"I will definitely do so!"
He affirmed righteously, but a trace of concern flashed in the subordinate’s eyes.
"However, those Insect Clan have still been frequently attacking recently, and the scope of their attacks has expanded several times.
They always appear from various corners and launch sudden attacks, but fortunately, there have been no severe casualties, and we’ve never managed to catch them even once..."
"It’s okay, there’s no need to bother with them. After all, since the day we ’defeated’ the Insect Clan, those scattered Insect Clan have landed on many planets.
As long as there’s no damage caused, we shouldn’t mind them.
Moreover, in a certain sense, these Insect Clan serve as a reminder for us to not let our guard down and provide us with training."
The President smiled, half-jokingly, and this eased the subordinate’s worries to some extent.
"I understand."
Seeing the President’s response, the subordinate did not probe further, agreed, and hurriedly left.
Leaving behind the President still with a faint smile, he turned his attention to the window feeling content.
Though still sitting in the President’s position, compared to a week ago, he had undergone significant changes both in mindset and physical condition.
Since accepting the rule of the Red Moon Church, he had become a believer of the Lord of Red Moon and received gifts from the Lord of Red Moon, gaining extraordinary abilities.
Without the burden of an entire civilization on his shoulders and with physical enhancement in a literal sense, he felt much more at ease than before.
Back then, he had to consider the consequences before acting and worry about the various measures of the Carli Civilization. Now, he only needed to follow orders and maintain the Federation’s operations without any concerns.
Without the psychological pressure, things were getting done even better than before.
Moreover, after taking complete control of the mother star that day, the Red Moon Church absolutely adhered to their initial agreement.
First, they immediately solved the issue of the Insect Clan, devising a reasonable scenario to conclude the war with an "opportunistic fleet successful counterattack," maintaining the normal stance against the Insect Clan.
Throughout the process, there were no injuries among the fleet members, nor any harm to the populace within the colonization stars.
And the same went for managing the Federation thereafter.
Besides integrating believers of the Red Moon Church into various parts of the civilization and coordinating the infiltration and transformation of key Federation positions, they did not interfere with the operation of the civilization at all.
They even, according to the initial agreement, provided a lot of assistance to their civilization.
Although due to identity reasons, they did not deliver tangible goods and resources, they did bring a lot of crucial knowledge and the next-generation technology they were researching.
With just a week’s time, the logistics department, also taken over by the Red Moon Church, produced finished products.
What he just sent his subordinate to install was one such product: a powerful radar system capable of surpassing the Carli Empire’s.
Even though this Red Moon Church probably had its own agenda, the fact was that the entire Federation became better in their hands.
If things continued like this, he believed the Roes Civilization might really have a chance to stand on equal footing with the Carli Civilization.
Because of this, after fully accepting the Red Moon Church’s control, he surprisingly found himself not having much resistance, and even harboring a bit of genuine faith towards the Lord of Red Moon.
After all, he’s not sure about other gods, but this Lord of Red Moon actually gets things done!
It even made him feel like, "If the church is working so hard, what excuse do I have to slack off?"
Chuckling and shaking his head to dismiss his strange thoughts, the President turned his attention back to the current civilization transformation process.
According to the bishops of the Red Moon Church, he was still pushing forward with the process of integrating believers into the Federation.
After all, the civilization’s territory was not small, and the distances between colonization stars in the Starry Sky scale still posed challenges.
And their level of civilization lacked the Star Gates of the Three Great Civilizations, resulting in many remote areas.
It’s still a considerable journey to ensure that believer management deeply and covertly infiltrates every colonization star, down to the space star port’s bottom.
But this is merely a matter of time; currently, what troubles him more is how to eliminate the civilization-wide animosity towards the Insect Swarm and believers.
"There is too much information about the Insect Swarm online, too ingrained in people’s minds, with almost everyone having a default image of the Insect Swarm in their minds.
Even when I try to influence others by changing my own attitude, subtly erasing some hostility towards the Insect Swarm among surrounding Federation employees, it still feels like a drop in the bucket...
Luckily, the church understands that the Insect Swarm’s image is too bad and hasn’t given me any time constraints...
Tsk, thinking of improving the image is impossible; even a few attacks, although not causing much harm, will at least take decades to erase this impact.
