"Unfortunately, none of them bear the name Sherman.

"Is there any sign of Li waking up?"

"No, Boss, but they've already started activating Labuduo, trying to control posts and suppress commentary to clamp down on public opinion using Labuduo."

Yang Ming chuckled: "Poor Labuduo, he's still a kid and has to face the violence of the online world."

"Uh, Boss, there's one more thing. Some regions have begun turning their protests violent under the New Federation's instigation, with more agents appearing in protest crowds, guiding people to vandalize, loot, and burn. Although this is within our expectations, they're using the banner of the White Ghost fan group. Should we suppress them a bit?"

"Suppress them."

Yang Ming said: "Remember to gather evidence, so if Li steps in to defend the Empire later, we can throw the dirty water on the New Federation."

"Alright, Boss... The Central Intelligence Agency is still too impatient."

"The New Federation doesn't have Li or someone like you," Yang Ming sighed lightly," I've suddenly realized, whether the Galaxy is chaotic or not, it's up to Intelligent Mechanic Dusk."

"The three teachers have no intention of meddling in human civilization, they are just selecting outstanding successors," Lyu chuckled, "It's just that the criteria for successors are often related to the development of factions."

"Get to work."

Yang Ming said: "Control the pace, don't develop too fast, we need to suppress them step by step."

"Yes, rest assured, Lyu completely understands."

...

In the Thought Space, Lyu's main body disconnected the communication with Yang Ming and stretched out lazily.

The clones around continued to process the information from various places methodically.

Lyu's main thought would review the aggregated information a hundred times, simply and straightforwardly, to ensure the credibility of the information.

Though a bit slow in efficiency, it ensures no errors.

At this stage, the protest movements within the Empire continue to expand their influence.

In their Challenger plan, this is a crucial step—letting the people develop the basic concept of resisting the Empire, knowing that their rights can be achieved in this way, and tearing apart the Empire's public opinion on a media level, increasing public dissatisfaction with the Imperial Government.

Lyu could become more radical, like designing some traps to trigger the Empire's real 'powder keg,' igniting the big mine within the Imperial nobles;

However, such a move, followed by a severe situation, would significantly reduce the benefits Boss Yang could gain.

As Yang Ming repeatedly emphasized, the more critical the moment, the more we need to stay calm and advance steadily at the predetermined pace...

"Hmm?"

Lyu suddenly realized a dramatic fluctuation in the information flow.

The magnitude of this fluctuation is rare, suggesting that a clone processing information has determined an important event that could affect the entire situation.

Lyu immediately began to retrieve the information.

Within a few milliseconds, she organized all the information, frowned at the main screen in front of her, and Yang Ming's serious reading profile on the screen.

"Boss," Lyu pressed the communication button, and her voice came out in Yang Ming's ear, "Something's happened."

Yang Ming was puzzled: "What happened?"

"A murder just occurred on Yaha Star, a fifty-two-year-old hereditary Earl was beaten to death by protesters."

Yang Ming was taken aback.

Lyu immediately said: "It's not arranged by me; it's an incident outside the plan, and the related video has started spreading wildly, seemingly pushed by someone behind the scenes, possibly the Central Intelligence Agency."

"Is there a video? Send it to me immediately."

"Alright, Boss."

Yang Ming dropped the book once more.

Now the act of feigning composure was over; the protesters had beaten an Earl to death, especially at this critical juncture, the situation could likely develop in an uncontrollable direction.
