Galaxy Domination Guide

Various engineering equipment started to build the first city of Iridium Star on Emerald Sea Star, named Su'ao, by the river that had been named Pan Shui. Bai Zhongqi created this name by stringing together meaningful characters on a whim (sweat of waterfalls).

"Su" refers to a famous city in Jiangnan, known for its wealth and thus having representative significance, while "ao" means a curved place by the sea where ships can dock. Even though Pan Shui is not a sea, it indeed is a bend in the river that resembles a lake in width.

Bai Zhongqi did not need to worry about the specifics of the construction process as there were naturally various unmanned devices to handle it. After the Sacred Falcon landed in Su'ao, Bai Zhongqi, accompanied by a group of people, boarded his current exclusive ride, the Aquamarine Boat, along with two military landing crafts, each carrying a group of soldiers.

The Aquamarine Boat flew eastward from Su'ao, towards the Legendary Continent. Inside Bai Zhongqi's private cabin, only he and Han Jiaxue were present, with Nan Ma, Xiao Yu, and other accompanying personnel in the outer cabins. As for Xu Lanzhou, he naturally stayed with the Sacred Falcon, overseeing the ship's affairs and the construction of Su'ao.

Bai Zhongqi still found it somewhat unbelievable. He had thought that the Iridium Star people would be very nervous about him personally leading a mission to Emerald Sea Star. Moreover, he had decided to personally visit the northern coastal city of the Southern Continent to inquire about the Mage, expecting possible opposition.

However, even Xu Lanzhou, his general who was usually particularly concerned about his safety, did not reject his proposal, at most expressing regret that he could not accompany him due to the need to command the Sacred Falcon.

It seemed that the people of Iridium Star took it for granted that the Chancellor should personally do certain things. Bai Zhongqi reflected on this for a moment and felt there might be many reasons. First, the image of the Imperial Chancellor being all-powerful and leading soldiers into battle may have taken root in the hearts of the people of Iridium Star.

Second, on many occasions, the commanders of exploration fleets would personally visit planets to understand firsthand situations, enabling better command of the fleet and arrangement of affairs. Lastly, no one seemed to think there was anything on Emerald Sea Star that could pose a threat to the Chancellor. Furthermore, the master Star Warrior Nan Ma was close at hand.

Han Jiaxue, on the other hand, seemed much calmer than Bai Zhongqi had imagined. She asked him curiously, with a hint of teasing, "Your Excellency the Chancellor, what do you plan to do?"

Bai Zhongqi did not hide his intentions, as he had already explained the situation to Han Jiaxue beforehand, proving her to be a trustworthy person.

"The Mage we are looking for is very likely in the city called Infia. For now, I have no plans to attack the city. If possible, it's better to blend in."

Han Jiaxue was, after all, a girl with a rather strong sense of compassion and said, "It would be better if we could avoid using force and keep things peaceful."

But Bai Zhongqi shook his head and said, "Believe me, the only truly civilized people on this planet are probably us from Iridium Star and those from Earth. The developmental stage of the people of Emerald Sea Star restricts them, so violence and plunder are the norm.

This city of Infia, we're unclear about how long it's been established, but without a doubt, it is a colonial city built on blood and tears. The people of Shangduohan crossed the Hot Wind Sea to come to the Southern Continent, usurping the land of the indigenous people and enslaving them to work in the plantations established by the Shangduohan people.

This land has buried countless bones of the natives."

Han Jiaxue couldn't help but let out a gasp upon hearing this and said, "That sounds really terrible."

Bai Zhongqi continued, "Therefore, it would be better for Iridium Star to put an end to the slaughter and plunder here, allowing the people of Emerald Sea Star, whether from the Southern Continent or the Northern Continent, to live in harmony and enjoy a more prosperous life."

Han Jiaxue hummed softly in response and did not speak further. She clearly did not want to interfere in such matters with Bai Zhongqi and also felt that these were not the things she wished to face.

Bai Zhongqi sighed inwardly, knowing that Han Jiaxue was very smart and his own defensive reasons were actually quite weak. The people of Shangduohan on the Northern Continent coveted the land and resources of the Southern Continent's tribal people, so what was the difference between him, as the Iridium Star Chancellor, and the Shangduohan people?

If the people of Emerald Sea Star could accept the rule of Iridium Star, then Bai Zhongqi certainly wouldn't be stingy in fulfilling his promises, by spreading more advanced civilization there and helping the locals live better lives with more opportunities.

But if the people of Emerald Sea Star chose to resist, then Bai Zhongqi would definitely not be lenient and could only express his regret before annihilating them.

The mercy of the powerful is a luxury, not a necessity.

As for Earth, Bai Zhongqi naturally felt more like an Earthling than an Iridium Star resident. That was his homeland and birthplace, so he would act cautiously, afraid of breaking things. But the same privilege did not extend to Emerald Sea Star; although he cared about the two billion inhabitants there, he did not regard them as highly as he did Earthlings.

Perhaps what he truly cared about were those mages who might be Star Warriors.

When the wave-rider ship arrived near the city of Infia, it was already local midnight. Naturally, the spaceship didn't make a grand entrance into the city; Bai Zhongqi chose to land discreetly in the outskirts, still a distance away from Infia city.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

As he and Han Jiaxue stepped out of the invisibility-mode-activated ship, Han Jiaxue covered her mouth in astonishment and said, "Isn't it supposed to be night now? Why is the biggest moon so bright?"

Bai Zhongqi wasn't surprised by this and explained to his girlfriend, "This galaxy is part of a three-body system; Bilin Star is too far away so its brightness is more like that of a star. The moon we see now is actually the sun, which is Centauri Alpha's A-star, located more than twenty astronomical units away from Emerald Sea Star.

A-star and B-star rotate around each other, and Emerald Sea Star orbits B-star, creating Emerald Sea Star's extremely complex day-night phenomenon.

During different years, different seasons, since the perceived size and distance of A-star from Emerald Sea Star vary, the brightness of night on Emerald Sea Star also varies. What we see now only happens when Emerald Sea Star is closest to A-star—the brightness of A-star is 6,300 times brighter than the moon on Earth, almost like an overcast day on Earth, and it doesn't feel like night at all.

Moreover, Emerald Sea Star itself has three smaller moons, which are the real moons. These satellites, along with the two stars and Emerald Sea Star itself, are constantly changing positions, resulting in frequent eclipses.

Due to the curvature of Emerald Sea Star itself, sometimes, at night, they see A-star as if it were incomplete, like our moon, which is what you are seeing right now. The inhabitants of Emerald Sea Star haven't realized the difference between A-star and the other moons, calling it the primary moon and the others, secondary moons, suggesting the smaller moons should obey the larger moon.

If B-star is between Emerald Sea Star and A-star, then for those few years, at night, they can only see the real moons and not A-star, which they refer to as 'dark nights.' And if Emerald Sea Star's orbit takes it between A-star and B-star, then for many years, there will be 'bright nights,' much like daylight, during the night right now.

It's because of the complexity of this astronomical system that the calendar of the people of Emerald Sea Star is still full of errors. They use bright nights and dark nights as calendrical tools, but since A-star and B-star rotate around each other, this calculation is inaccurate.

It is also because of the inaccuracy of the calendar that Emerald Sea Star has a poor concept of time, and its agricultural technology is relatively primitive, leading to slow development."

Han Jiaxue exclaimed, "It's really complicated. Earth is better with only one sun and one moon. If students here had to learn geography and astronomy, it would almost drive them to despair."
