Galaxy Domination Guide-Chapter 517 - 505 swept away

Zang Murenqing stood at the top of the castle on Ghostwatch Mountain, overlooking the city and the surrounding territories, where his once passionate enthusiasm had now faded into dullness.

This was the place where he had grown up. Over a year ago, he had resolutely left to embark on a quest to find the dragon slayer, the savior. Now, he had found the powerful dragon slayer he sought, become his student, and even led an army back to Ghostwatch Mountain.

Here, he faced no resistance. Several Great Transport Beasts dropped combat Humanoid Beasts from the sky, parachutes blossomed like specks, yet not a single shot or shell was fired before the guards of Ghostwatch Mountain lost their will to fight. The main forces of Ghostwatch Mountain had already joined Gecimi Jiang in a campaign, leaving behind none who possessed significant military strength.

When the guards saw it was the Third Young Master, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Although confused about the situation, everyone knew the universally kind Third Young Master would not harm them.

Zang Murenqing was well aware of the military power each of Bai Zhongqi's students commanded. Not only did each bring a battalion of five hundred soldiers, but their teacher had also equipped them with aerial and ground firepower. There were 12 light War Machine Beasts with them, along with six Cannon Beasts, six Tank Beasts, and six War Chariot Beasts. Though the forces were not large, they far surpassed anything the medieval period Lords could muster.

Zang Murenqing remembered when he first heard his teacher plan to conquer the Northeast Land, most students showed excitement, yet the teacher appeared completely unfazed.

"The teacher's power is so great that he simply does not regard the Northeast Land highly. I suspect he cares just as little for places like Jiangnan Land, Northwest Land, and Mount Ranji Land. He merely needs to dispatch our troops there, and even the mightiest Lords will have to surrender."

Following that, the armies led by Zang Murenqing and other students began to rapidly subdue the Lords of the Northeast Land. Many Lords died at Mount Ranji or were captured there, leaving their territories mostly undefended. Even those with substantial forces crumbled under the pressure of Mount Ranji's firepower and surrendered immediately.

It took less than two weeks for the entire Northeast Land to fall into the hands of Mount Ranji. Bai Zhongqi ordered his students to leave behind a varying number of troops—from several dozen to a hundred—to maintain order and ensure effective control of the newly conquered territories.

As Zang Murenqing had predicted, after conquering the Northeast Land, Bai Zhongqi provided them with even more troops; this time, each leader commanded forces ranging from three thousand to five thousand men. Bai Zhongqi ordered them to begin attacking other regions on the continent; despite these Lords harboring no personal grievances with Bai Zhongqi, he unburdenedly chose to obliterate them.

The planet Yimoduoya only needed one master, not Lords with autonomous statuses.

Meanwhile, Zero was growing stronger. After the battle at Mount Ranji, she had absorbed a vast amount of False Dragon DNA, causing a significant jump in the Swarm's level. As Mount Ranji's army expanded, her Enslaved Beasts brought her more native species DNA. The Swarm Empress, constantly exploring the mysteries of biological origins, continued to grow her power on this basis.

New Insect Nests kept splitting off, which were then airlifted by Great Transport Beasts to "military bases" decided by Bai Zhongqi, producing large numbers of Enslaved Beasts on-site to assist his students in conquering the Lords' territories.

In reality, in this process, Bai Zhongqi did not necessarily need to make his students commanders, as the Enslaved Beasts could well perform the combat tasks. However, being inherently human, he naturally defaulted to granting such powers to humans.

Two commanding officers who had defected, Huo Huocha and Lie Wu, were placed on the battlefield after scrutiny. Both had scarcely grasped the new combat strategy, adhering more to a standard plan developed by Bai Zhongqi, but indeed, they proved to be competent generals and learned quickly.

As for the Dragon Blood person, Avi, he also got an opportunity to command troops. However, relying on his strong individual combat ability, he barely conducted any commanding. At the start of every battle, he would be the first to jump from the plane, then ferociously tear his enemies to shreds, fighting foes directly while the Enslaved Beasts battled theirs.

All was proceeding just as Bai Zhongqi had envisioned. He had drawn up a detailed military strategy plan, which was unlikely to encounter any significant deviations because the Swarm army was too strong and the humans too weak. Bai Zhongqi aimed to fully unify the planet within 120 days.

The planet turned out to be far richer than Bai Zhongqi initially thought, boasting abundant resources, vast undeveloped lands, and environmental conditions that matched or even surpassed Earth. Undoubtedly, this could be deemed a mother planet capable of nurturing a great civilization.

During this process, unlike when he built other territories similar to Mount Ranji, Bai Zhongqi did some things typically done by other revolutionaries and rebels, such as prosecuting former beneficiaries, distributing food to relieve the people, and allocating land to the populace.

Although the means of production on Yimoduoya were abundant, they were disproportionally controlled by the Lords and the Nobility. Together with the sixty years of the Era of the Dragon, this further suppressed the will and necessity for resistance among the populace.

The Mount Ranji's sweeping campaign not only reasserted control over the entire planet but also made the people of Yimoduoya recognize a new mechanism—that the existence of political power was to protect humanity against enemies such as dragon groups and to improve the quality of human life.

Bai Zhongqi did not intend to have the entire planet's population quickly identify with him or the Empire he had established; however, this process was bound to realize.

By extending greater control over the entire planet, Bai Zhongqi began exploring various territories for so-called dragon slayer Ruins. He indeed collected some information about the Ruins and proceeded excitedly to investigate them, only to be disappointed to find that many were not artifacts of an advanced civilization but more primitive Ruins. Some rumored Ruins did not even exist.

After visiting one Ruin after another, Bai Zhongqi became increasingly disillusioned. The Era of the Dragon was gradually approaching, and although the Swarm's strength had significantly increased, Bai Zhongqi was unsure whether it could truly counteract a Lower Civilization, which caused him some restlessness.
