Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 1423 - 1387: The War You Wanted – End! (2)

"Those people outside are probably being manipulated by the sovereignties!"

Shen Fei is no fool; she can naturally detect some signs.

Without the clandestine support of the Blue Star sovereignties, those shouting outside the venue would have no chance of landing on the island.

Chen Fei sighed and said worriedly, "Honestly, we are already on the verge of sparking a conflict."

From the intelligence gathered by Miyoshi Xuesen's department and The First Sovereign, it was evident that the American Federation, long embroiled in internal strife, the various sovereignties on the affected Europa Continent, and those on the Africa Continent who thrive on chaos, all wish to deflect their internal conflicts. Be it the "Sima Qian Trap" or the Thucydides Trap, Chen Fei's nascent forces perfectly meet the criteria to be everyone's target.

International relations are established through conflict, and neither the international standing of the Blue Star sovereignties nor every inch of their territories came about through "love and peace." Even The First Sovereign had to fight several significant battles against an enemy-ridden world to achieve its status. Therefore, Chen Fei must face these challenges currently.

"Should we fight?"

Shen Fei was taken aback. She was merely assisting Chen Fei in his work and hadn't considered the broader picture from his vantage.

"We definitely need to fight, but not now. Moreover, The First Sovereign will refrain, or it could trigger a new world war."

Chen Fei nodded. Avoiding the challenge entirely was unlikely, but he could delay it long enough to consolidate all his power and resources, then wage a small conflict to assert his voice and earn recognition.

Forgetting about peace and love.

"Fight if you must; the sooner, the better!"

Shen Fei couldn't understand why some people insisted on picking fights.

Having clashed with the "Sagali" civilization on the frontline for so long, Chen Fei wasn't someone to be easily manipulated. Even against the minor sovereignties of Blue Star, his war prowess was nothing to scoff at. Not to mention, he still had the largely intact support of the Cangqiong Star Civilization. The First Sovereign hasn't even interfered yet, probably couldn't catch up.

Chen Fei calmly said, "Let's improvise!"

Holding a press conference was unfamiliar territory for him, but the notorious image he had cultivated couldn't worsen anything even if he spouted nonsense or cursed on the spot.

"Don't worry! Ensure your safety; the time has come, let's start!"

Keeping a close watch on the schedule, Shen Fei nodded to Heseman Brown and others. To protect Chen Fei, even the newly appointed finance officer Theodore was pulled in as a human shield.

As soon as Chen Fei stepped into the venue, the buzz of murmurs silenced instantly, stillness dominated, and even a pin drop could be heard clearly.

"Ahem, everyone, I am Chen Fei, Chen with 'ear' and 'east,' Fei meaning 'non.' I am the current Star Lord, here to formally announce matters concerning Cangqiong Star and the 'Sagali' civilization."

Chen Fei had given himself the title of Star Lord just half an hour earlier, yet the name of the new planet was still under debate.

He had no desire or ability to govern, so declaring ownership was pragmatic.

"You tyrant..."

A member of the media suddenly leaped up and threw a smelly shoe at Chen Fei.

The boomerang of "tyrant" had finally returned, originating from the "Wall of Sighs" operation when Chen Xiao'er became stranded at "Atlantis."

The shoe and the shoe-thrower vanished mid-flight.

"Heh!"

S-Class Space Ability User Heseman Brown sneered. Right under his nose, a mere ordinary person dared to act out?

The shoe thrower, along with his shoe, was thrown to the other side of the bay, and was currently being pressed into the ground by Combat Mechs at the transit station, nearly tossed into the sea or atmosphere out of mere kindness.

Two seconds of silence followed before a tumultuous outburst arose; clearly, nobody expected commotion at a press conference, least of all a shoe throw, though it failed.

With supernatural power users controlling the scene, Chen Fei, dubbed "tyrant," was well-prepared.

Chen Fei acted as if nothing had transpired, scanned the press conference, and said calmly, "Is there anyone else unsatisfied? If so, come fight me!"

Still with that same rascal persona!

Many felt a chill at those words. What kind of Star Lord, if anyone could handle that job.

After all, failing miserably lowers standards, making people feel "even I could do that."

After a silent ten seconds, nobody else stepped forward, leaving only this one slipping through the net.

"Let's continue..."

Chen Fei glanced down at his speech notes, sighed and tossed them aside, noting, "'Sagali' civilization has been wiped out by me, no enslaved race left, I've commandeered all the civilization's technology and resources. Cangqiong Star has become thirty-three floating continents; the Slan Dynasty's early relocation suggests a century before returning. During this time, they'll reside on my controlled planet. As for your submitted pre-questions, the answer is no! There's none! Impossible! Any more questions?"
