Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 897: Chapter 486, Only You, My Friend_3 Chapter 897: Chapter 486, Only You, My Friend_3 Riding inside, deep beneath the Imperial Palace, the track twisted and turned through many complex intersections before arriving at a certain location.

After leaving the railcar, Gu Hang was led into a dimly lit meeting hall.

Several people were already seated there.

Some of them had attended the banquet just before, some had not. Galaraldo enthusiastically pulled Gu Hang along to introduce him to everyone:

“This is our new member! Gu Hang from the Eastern Cosmos Domain, Dragonhawk Star Domain. The Alliance he controls is a true local faction.”

Everyone’s gazes turned towards Gu Hang, filled with scrutiny.

No one spoke, but Gu Hang could see some doubt in the eyes of a few individuals.

A local power faction? Just half a Star Sector.

Do you become a local power faction simply by owning a few Battleships?

Gu Hang didn’t say anything; he simply sat down with a smile.

Galaraldo, on the other hand, began to speak: “Ladies and gentlemen, please pay attention. Sitting before you is a man who, twenty years ago, entered an abandoned world with just a single follower and started from scratch. In twenty years, he now wields influence over 182 worlds.”

“He eradicated the Rebels on the planets, destroyed the Plague Demons about to obliterate a Nest Capital World, and won a war against the Beastmen with casualties in the hundreds of billions.”

“The Star Sector he controls now possesses a Fleet with a Battleship as its flagship, supported by more than a dozen Lunar-Class Cruisers; he has a Starfighter Battle Group that has regained its former glory fighting alongside him; his Land Forces are even stronger than the Star Realm Army.”

“Perhaps, you who often dwell in the Central Government may not be aware of the local situations. But I assure you, with the integrity I’ve maintained in my decades of travel throughout the Empire, that Gu Hang and his Alliance are absolutely reliable, true powerhouses. He already has a force that no one can ignore, and under his wise leadership, his power is bound to grow rapidly.”

“And we are the best helpers and investors for him. Gu Hang undoubtedly qualifies to be one of us, and our current investments will assuredly bring us a hefty return in the future.”

“Don’t you envy the ease with which the Prime Minister can mobilize the ‘Otaubis’ Regiment? Don’t you envy the close ties each family has with local powers? I know we all have our connections, but who would complain about having an extra ace up their sleeve?”

Galaraldo was an eloquent speaker.

After his speech, the crowd’s view of Gu Hang had changed significantly.

And just at that moment, two more individuals walked through another entrance of the meeting hall.

The one in the lead, clapping his hands with a smile, said: “Bochoya is right, we warmly welcome you, Mr. Gu, the Governor. With you joining us, our future will certainly become brighter!”

As he spoke, everyone in the room stood up.

Gu Hang stood up as well.

Among the two, one was familiar to him. The person following the leader was none other than the most prominent figure at the previous banquet, the Deputy Premier of the Department of Taxation, Tang Mili.

And the leader himself, although Gu Hang had never seen him in person, he was a figure often seen elsewhere.

He was one of the thirteen High Lords of the Imperial Council, the Minister of Justice of the Empire: Ou Juren.

Thank you to the Alliance Hierarch [Hu Yifan] for the generous reward!!!

Extremely grateful!

But now… my backlog of additional updates has skyrocketed from 50k to 70k, the more I repay, the more I owe… T0T

The lord even mentioned that there will be a Silver Alliance when the book is finished; I haven’t ever had a Silver Alliance in my life.

But… doesn’t that mean an extra 200k???

I’m afraid I’ll never be able to fully repay the lord’s kindness even after I finish writing this book…

I will definitely add an update tomorrow! I’ll try to reduce the current debt as much as possible!

Visit and read more novel to help us update chapter quickly. Thank you so much!
