"Warrior, one of the Empire's most powerful transformed soldiers."

"Wow, then I really should worry about your frail little body. Well, they are transformed people. Oh, I've never tried the taste of transformed people."

Daphne: ...

It's alright, her aunt didn't delve too deeply into these matters.

Her aunt's attention was clearly on more exciting things.

Half an hour later.

Inside lounge number four, specially set up to receive the Imperial nobles.

Daphne pushed open the door to the lounge, and what she saw was a warmly decorated living room and two rows of clothes racks filled with military uniforms.

She tentatively walked two steps forward and asked softly: "Hanton?"

Click.

The door to the lounge closed by itself, and Yang Ming's voice came from behind the door:

"Beautiful Princess, it seems you have received some news."

Daphne immediately turned around, wearing a strapless tight dress, using her gentle curves and porcelain-like white skin to interpret the beauty and sensuality of the Imperial Nobles.

She mimicked Yang Ming by crossing her arms: "My partner, your reaction is too slow. Your ex-girlfriend is in trouble."

"Is that so?"

Yang Ming slightly curled his lips: "I'm in the military, I have no sources of information, I know nothing about these matters."

Daphne said:

"Of course, it's just suspicion for now. My intelligence source indicates that the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau only captured evidence of Catherine once appearing on the impoverished planet where the rebel leader is hiding. This is not direct evidence. The Supermodified Organization is currently conducting a self-investigation, and the Military Intelligence Bureau will intervene at any time.

"Your loyal partner, Captain Griss, has already led the secret unit of the Heavenly Fury Fortress to search for Catherine.

"However, the most suspicious thing now is that Captain Catherine vanished without a trace six Galaxy Time ago; she has a chip from the Supermodified Organization in her brain, which can display her location in real time. She seems to have realized she has been exposed."

Yang Ming laughed quietly to himself.

Now the Supermodified Organization is full of Bryant people, but the Bryant people are called the black perverted little Ghosts.

Yang Ming frowned tightly: "Catherine, with the rebel leader? Are you sure?"

"Of course," Daphne slightly raised her head, "That's the woman you've always been infatuated with. If I'm not mistaken, you will have some trouble next, needing to cooperate with the investigation. In the Empire, rebellion is the primary crime."

Yang Ming pondered, "Supermodified people need to undergo a thought imprint."

"Thought imprints can be cracked," Daphne said, "For example, thought imprint limitations, their allegiance is to the Empire and the Emperor. They can self-suggest or use strong hypnosis, telling themselves that the Emperor has been overthrown, the Empire is on the wrong path, and only by restoring order can it be saved... Such things have happened before, and now the entire Supermodified Organization is under self-examination."

Yang Ming rubbed his temples, lowering his head in thought.

"I still don't understand..."

"That's none of your concern now, Hanton, look at me."

Daphne moved forward proactively, cupping Yang Ming's cheeks with her hands.

"We are partners, I've invested all my resources onto you, don't let me lose everything, alright?"

Yang Ming chuckled, casually swatting her hands away, and slowly said: "So should I thank you then, Princess?"

Daphne felt a flare of anger rising within her.

She was just about to speak when Yang Ming suddenly reached out, lifting her right hand up, a force pulling her, making her spin face-to-face with the man in front of her, her back pressed against the door of the lounge.

Yang Ming pressed his other hand beside Daphne's cheek, looking down at her.

Daphne suddenly felt nervous.

She looked up at Yang Ming, her breathing became somewhat chaotic, her fair skin trembled slightly, her moist lips parted slightly as Yang Ming approached, her long eyelashes slowly closing.

Suddenly.

"Aren't you into women?"

Yang Ming's voice came from a few meters away.

Daphne opened her eyes to find Yang Ming already sitting on the sofa, with a playful expression.

"You're terribly ungentlemanly!"

Daphne snorted, feeling a slight ache in her wrist, lowering her head, she walked to sit opposite Yang Ming.

Her demeanor still maintained a princess-like elegance.

"Next, I will be by your side. The original plan was for you to work on the noble rectification and take a temporary post at the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau, but now with the issue regarding Captain Catherine, the subsequent arrangements have also become uncertain.

"However, I will try my best to help you mitigate the impact."

"No need to worry," Yang Ming closed his eyes, reclining leisurely on the sofa, "Catherine was just my girlfriend, not my wife. I can explain by saying she approached me previously to try and make me betray the Empire, and I steadfastly stood on the Empire's side."

"You've changed quite a bit," Daphne said softly.

Yang Ming smiled: "Change or no change, I am still me, I just figured out some things. I'll give you a phrase that is my motto."

"What is it?"

"Abandon illusions, prepare for struggle."

Daphne shook her head, unable to comprehend the meaning of this phrase.

...

Meanwhile, on a poverty-stricken planet with a population of two billion somewhere in the Empire, inside an abandoned underground fortress.

Catherine, wearing a combat suit, was currently frowning as she stood in front of several makeshift military solid-state screens, gazing at the data scrolling on them.

She asked softly: "Has everyone been evacuated?"

"Boss, the brothers have all pulled out. How did we get exposed this time?"

"Someone leaked our intelligence, from the organization we previously contacted," Catherine said with a bit of coldness in her expression, "Don't bother with them, I've already sent people to eliminate those so-called revolutionaries colluding with the Empire authorities. They've survived so long, they clearly have their own way of survival."
