Starting from the Planetary Governor-Chapter 682 - 387: The People of Fatches Are Loyal

The coup that took place on Fatches No.1 had long been plotted by the Alliance.

The delivery of supplies to the Fatches planet served dual purposes, on the one hand, to strengthen the covenant between both parties, instilling in the Fatches people more confidence to take a tough stance against the Star Sector Government. On the other hand, it was to secretly insert certain individuals among them.

Intelligence agents, Demon Hunters, Interstellar Warriors of Phoenix, and the Psykers from the Storm Mage Corps all entered this way.

And now, a hundred Interstellar Warriors had turned the capital planet of Fatches No.1 upside down.

Yet no one came to intervene, or perhaps those who wanted to couldn’t.

The fifty Phoenix warriors within the Era Royal Court were almost done clearing the palace’s defense forces. The clueless automechanical soldiers were nearly wiped out, the automatic turrets had their control center destroyed, and the other human guards, originally numbering at least a thousand and considered elite on the Fatches planet, either died or were trembling so much that they lost all will to fight.

The Phoenixes not only took control of the central palace of the Era Royal Court but also breached the government organizations situated in the forecourt, turning many officials who were at work into captives.

Once the Phoenixes had control here, they began to hold their ground.

But there wasn’t much to hold onto.

The worst-case scenario did not happen; the Capital Guard Army remained silent.

Three tactical squads of Phoenixes helped Bobby Fachess take control of the Capital Guard Army. Although several people both above and at his rank were executed, he still had his loyalists, and he had been preparing for this day for quite some time. However, due to the need for secrecy and the impossibility of making a show of it, it was hard for him to make many moves or win over many people in advance.

However, even if he couldn’t get the Capital Guard Army to follow his command, just having them paralyzed in hesitation, confrontation, and chaos was enough.

When millions in the Capital Guard Army did nothing, that spared the Phoenixes a load of trouble.

Meanwhile, Petes, the number eight man of the Fatches Regime, was rushing over here escorted by twenty Phoenix warriors.

The most ideal scenario would have been to eliminate the seven individuals ahead of Petes Fatches in rank, so that he, as the old number eight, could naturally ascend to the highest position of power through the legal principles set by the Fatches Family—although even then it wouldn’t be possible to end everything immediately, it would have made things considerably easier.

Unfortunately, it was not to be done.

Within the Era Royal Court, they slaughtered the number one Family Head, the number two Young Family Head, the number three Chief Elder, and captured the two high-ranking officials, numbers five and seven. But the number four figure, the Marshal of the Fatches Tristar Defense Army, was an insurmountable hurdle.

Currently, this person was inspecting the military’s defense arrangements at the starport on Fatches No.1. The Alliance also had an undercover agent there, tasked with assassinating him. But up to now, no successful news had come through; this presumably meant the assassination had failed.

But that was no cause for concern, for it was an auxiliary move that was not highly likely to succeed from the start.

Overall, the events unfolding on the Fatches capital were proceeding quite smoothly.

The number eight figure, Petes, had smoothly entered the center of the Fatches Regime. Enjoy new tales from novelbuddy

He approached with a trace of trepidation and unease.

Salihoovich was the first to greet him, and after a brief exchange in private, Petes’s emotions had significantly cooled.

He composed himself and, with a slight quiver, took out a folded piece of paper from the upper pocket of his garment.

Then, under the somewhat despairing gazes of the many Fachess officials, he activated a device.

It was not any strategic weapon, but something even more terrifying than that.

What Petes was about to do would tear apart the entire Fachess Regime.

By now, no one could stop it.

It was a button that could initiate a global broadcast, and when he pressed it, the words he was about to say would be transmitted to the capital’s broadcast tower, which would then forcibly seize the broadcast and television signals of the entire world, allowing the entire planet to hear his next words.

"I am Petes Fachess, Minister of Commerce of the Fatches Tristar United Government. Hereby, on behalf of the United Government, I make this declaration to all citizens of the Tri-Star:"

"Since March, the ten billion people of the Fachess Tri-Star have been living in fear. The Family Head Minnick’s arrogant expulsion of the Imperial Tax officials is a grave crime, and no matter how he tries to justify it, his actions have led to the undeniable fact that the Fachess Tri-Star has been judged ’traitors to the Empire’."

"As things stand now, the Tianma Fleet, bearing the Empire’s wrath, has blockaded our star system; Commanding Officer Gu Hang, a hero of the Empire who has been awarded the Medal of Honor, eradicated countless demons, and saved the Tianma Star Sector, has now brought tens of millions of the Imperial Army into orbit above our planet. The most infuriated among them is the Dragonhawk Legion, which has always guarded the Fachess Tri-Star."

"It is foreseeable that if we continue to be stubborn and follow the Family Head Minnick’s insane decisions, the entire Fachess Tri-Star will be decimated under the Empire’s wrath. All peace and prosperity will turn to ashes amidst the fire of war. The Dragonhawk Legion, which once protected us, will unleash their most disappointed fury upon every Fachess citizen."

"And how innocent are the people of Fachess?"

"What Minnick has done was not the will of the United Government, nor was it the will of the entire populace of Fachess Tri-Star. We have always been subjects of the Empire, paying our taxes on time, supporting the Star Realm Legion, and revering The Emperor."

"The people of Fachess have fulfilled all the duties that Imperial citizens should, and we rightfully deserve the Empire’s protection, the peaceful lives we have created with our own hands, and not to bear the unjust stigma of being traitors or to endure a wrath we do not deserve because of Minnick’s arrogant acts."

"Having been justly tried for betraying the Empire, from the Family Head Minnick down, government officials who have betrayed the Empire and the people of Fachess no longer possess the capability to lead the government. Therefore, I hereby announce, in accordance with the highest law of power succession of the United Government, that I myself am assuming the highest power of the United Government."

"In the name of the United Government, I command all Facess Planetary Defense Forces, as of this day, to hold their positions, maintain public order, and upon the arrival of the Imperial Army, obey all commands of the Imperial officers and, if necessary, assist the Imperial Army in eliminating the traitors."

"I order, all local officials under the Fachess United Government shall prepare to cooperate with the Imperial Army."

"I plead with every Fachess citizen to uphold the duties of an Imperial citizen, stay at home, cooperate with all actions of the Imperial Army, to prove the loyalty of the Fachess people, and I believe Commanding Officer Gu Hang will give the Fachess people a fair outcome."

"The people of Fachess are loyal! For the Emperor!"
