Silver Lining

Zhao Yu came to the deserted planet to build a base, create an underground city and hide in it.
Worried about the threat from the unknown civilization, Zhao Yu dug out a small half of the planet and built star destroyer cannons capable of destroying the planet, as well as tens of thousands of fully intelligent mechanical dogs in various forms.
The defensive robotic dog, the Gate God, would disguise itself as a small mountain and fortify around the base.
Detection and gathering robot dog - Tsotan, would disguise as a rolling stone and wander around the planet to collect useful resources.
Combat robot dog - Nezha, would disguise as a crater, scattered around the base, ready to be able to attack the enemies that may come.
Around the base, they were ready to attack the enemies that might come.
On this day, his gathering robot dog - Tsotan, dragged back a spaceship. It captured three alien creatures, claiming to be from Earth.
Zhao Yu was confused. "Didn't I travel to the deep space of the universe? How come I'm on the back of the moon and being treated as an alien by humans?"

People Found Out About The Base I Built On the Moon

There was room for argument. After the Emissary left, Zhao Yu immediately collapsed on the sofa, feeling utterly drained by the situation.

The Milky Way Empire was too strong and Zhao Yu still not capable to defy them now.

"Whether it's the King of War or the Mysterious Merchant, both need to interact with other civilizations to acquire technology points..." he thought.

"Even the reputation system is relevant as well…"

"Now, the Empire have directly restricted me…"

The Empire neither allows civilizations to trade directly with each other, nor starting a war between them. This has completely eliminated Zhao Yu.

With the tax to pay the Empire. Taxes to be paid to the Kingdoms, Dukedom, and Marquisate were added.

If the taxes could be paid with mineral resources, Zhao Yu considered t would be still bearable. The issue was the dark matter, which could only be produced using living people as material.
