[Level 2 Mission, Defend the Solar System, completed. Reward received, upgraded to the t.i.tle of Mysterious Merchant.]

[t.i.tle upgrading]

[Upgrade complete.]

[Mysterious Merchant: Extra technology points can be obtained by trading with alien civilizations..]

The reward for the mission is an upgrade of my previous t.i.tle to t.i.tle to Mysterious Merchant?

Zhao Yu was kind of surprised with no options given after completing this task.

He double checked the benefit give by Mysterious Merchant t.i.tle and realized it was similar as before.

Thats all?!

Was the system playing some tricks on him was Zhaou Yus first thought.

He opened the his diary and reviewed the previous records when he first obtained the Mysterious Merchant t.i.tle.

Soon, he found an obvious difference.

The previous Mysterious Merchant t.i.tle had two restrictions. Firstly, the technology points received will not exceed the maximum technology level of the traded items, and the second restriction was that it only applied to products, not scientific theories or related technical principles.

The upgraded Mysterious Merchant t.i.tle doesnt have these restrictions anymore?!

Wouldnt this mean that he could now endlessly earn technology points with just theory or technical principles?! Zhao Yu was excited to test out his idea.

After feeling joyful for a while, Zhao Yu gradually calmed down.

Could the system really allow him to exploit such a loophole?!

With the combination of Mysterious Merchant and Warlord t.i.tles, wouldnt he be able to easily upgrade to level three, four, or even five?

Could it be related to the Galactic Empire?!

The systems reward mechanism often seemed to adjust to favor his situation.

The rewards given during previous crises, such as defending the Solar System, were all related to the crisis at hand.

Zhao Yu decided not to dwell on it.

Ill find out whats going on when 1 meet the people from the Galactic Empire in three days

Milky Way Empire.

The same group of giants were seated together regarding the establishment of the Empire.

The only thing of value to us is dark matter

Intelligent life is born from dark matter. To obtain it, we need to use these intelligent beings as base materials, extracting dark matter through converters

Direct enslavement might incite rebellion. The best way is to cultivate agents, letting them enslave their own kind

Among the one hundred thousand civilizations, the majority are not suitable for cultivating materials

Lets change their systems to a feudal dynasty structure

Galactic Empire will recognizing the highest rulers of various civilizations as legitimate rulers. Well give the third-level civilizations the t.i.tle of Princely Relative, the second-level will be Dukes and establish duchies, the first-level will be Marquises and establish marquisates, and the zero-level will be Earls, acting as lords

What if they refuses?

Those who refuse will have their entire race capture as material for energy consumption!

After their discussion, they agreed that the feudal dynasty system was the most suitable strategy.

The giants were not wanting to rule the whole universe. What they truly cared about was dark matter.

With the minimal effort to obtaining dark matter, it is wise to conquer the whole galaxy.

Next, lets talk about how we can maximize the acquisition of dark matter?

Although the giants were powerful enough to destroy all the civilizations in the galaxy, obtaining dark matter required some strategy and time.

However, he needed to use some methods to obtain dark matter.

Firstly, we must prevent wars between civilizations

Secondly, we must demand them offering us the corresponding amount of dark matter each year, and encourage them to increase dark matter production on their own

Refining dark matter requires using life force as materials. Ununited civilization is the best way to do this.

The more power given to the va.s.sals to rule internally, the better this separation effect.

As long as the va.s.sals do not consider those who look like them as their kind, dark matter production will continue to grow.

For these va.s.sals, the population will be a resource, and they will naturally protect and expand the population.

Preventing wars between civilizations is easy. Well issue strict orders and use our military strength as a guarantee. No one will dare to defy us

According to the reports, only about 93% of the civilizations in the Milky Way are still in the mother galaxy. The remaining 7% are missing and still follow the Dark Forest Law

Theyre a minority and wont cause significant trouble

Have you found a way to make those va.s.sals actively increase production? The giant leader questioned the rest.

We have some clues

Firstly, these va.s.sals are the highest power within their own civilizations, possessing almost everything. The only things they lack are lifespan and status among other civilizations

Throughout history, rulers have sought immortality. The giants understood clearly that this could apply to the va.s.sals as well.

So, we can start by considering these two aspects

For them to purchase our products to increase lifespan, they must trade with us using dark matter as currency.
