I am the Emperor of Humanity across the Multiverse

Chapter 183: Chapter 183: "And This Is the Core of Atlas"



As soon as Samuel Young finished speaking, the courtroom erupted into chaos, filled with gasps and exclamations.

The people present clearly hadn't expected Samuel to blatantly expose the unspoken truths in front of national representatives and a global audience on a live broadcast.

But, upon reflection, Samuel certainly had the leverage to do so.

After all, some of the battle footage Atlas had released on its website showcased the Selene-class and Phaedus-class main cannons firing in unison with hydrogen bombs. What could the UK, the USA, or any other nations or organizations hoping to steal Atlas's technology do? Talk their way into getting it?

Some representatives from countries that had long suffered under oppressive regimes nearly burst into laughter, barely able to contain themselves.

Meanwhile, the Secretary-General was completely dumbfounded.

He couldn't figure out whether Samuel already knew about his collusion with the elite remnants of the UK and USA and the plot to assassinate him after the meeting.

On top of that, the sheer physical presence of Samuel, Guilliman, and Sanguinius was terrifying. The Secretary-General, hailing from Uganda, couldn't stop himself from sweating profusely, and even his body trembled involuntarily.

Seeing this, the special representative seated to the Secretary-General's left, whose nameplate read "John Ross / Nationality: USA," barked out:

"Watch your..."

"Watch what? Watch my words?"

Samuel interrupted him directly. "Why should I be polite and civilized in front of a bunch of hypocritical scum?"

As Samuel spoke, the courtroom's holographic projectors automatically activated, displaying a file titled "Aby Island" to everyone in the room, as well as those watching the livestream.

!!!

The moment the file's title appeared, John Ross and other officials who understood its implications immediately tried to signal the Dutch special forces guarding the room to shut down the unauthorized projection.

"Shut up. Sit down."

But as soon as Samuel spoke, a wave of psychic energy, invisible to the naked eye, radiated through the entire courthouse.

Suddenly, everyone fell silent, remaining seated. Despite their panic-stricken gazes, they were no longer in control of their bodies.

Meanwhile, the holographic projection, remotely controlled by Atlas's network division, continued to play:

Project Name: Aby Island.

Project Description:

In 1999, on July 17, American businessman Aby Bryan purchased a private island in the British Virgin Islands, which he named "Aby Island."

After a detailed investigation by our personnel, it was revealed that the true purpose of Bryan's purchase was to provide elite members of society around the world with custom-tailored sexual services.

On September 29, 1999, Bryan hired 166 adult "service providers" and subjected them to strict training.

On November 11 of the same year, the first group of elites arrived on the island.

This group included American elites from 1970 to 1998, along with elites from the UK, Canada, and other nations.

—For a detailed list of members, please refer to the attached document "Guest List."

The first group of elites held a six-day "banquet" on Aby Island.

Through relentless flattery and services, Aby Bryan gained significant political and financial support.

On November 17 of the same year, our investigators first noticed Aby Island.

Due to the involvement of high-level government officials among the island's guests, we decided to launch a covert investigation, maintaining surveillance on all activities related to Aby Island.

In February 2000...

As adult "service providers" could no longer satisfy the increasingly extreme preferences of the elites, Bryan decided to turn to kidnapping, deception, and bribery, targeting underage boys and girls for recruitment.

Realizing the case now involved minors, we decided to send a rapid response team to the island on February 22, 2000. The team successfully seized the island and arrested Aby Bryan and all other related personnel.

—For video evidence, please refer to the attached documents "Rapid Response Team Footage ①, ②, ③."

Now, the holographic screen in the courtroom began playing edited footage from the rapid response team's body cameras.

The video showed a standard covert infiltration, with the Dutch special forces recognizing many of the tactical signals and movements from their own training.

The guards and mercenaries on the island were completely ineffective, unable to put up any meaningful resistance against Atlas's experienced rapid response team, which specialized in infiltration operations. In no time, Atlas had taken control of the three-square-kilometer island.

As the Aby Island files finished playing, the courtroom remained eerily silent. 

Of course, even if someone wanted to speak, Samuel's psychic influence prevented them from doing so.

Seeing the reaction, Samuel turned slightly, aligning his gaze with the cameras that were broadcasting the event live. Facing the millions watching, he spoke with an expression of growing anger:

"Democracy? Democracy, they say! Forcing minors to serve them? Is this what these glamorous but utterly despicable politicians call democracy?

"They say Atlas should share all its technological breakthroughs unconditionally for the betterment of all humanity. They claim that Atlas's private military should be placed under UN control to ensure global stability.

"Spare me!"

As Samuel's words echoed, the holographic and livestream content shifted to images showing a stark contrast between the Middle East, Africa, and other regions before and after Atlas's intervention.

Countries that had previously been ravaged by conflict and invasion were now thriving under Atlas's protection. Some of these nations had advanced so far that their cities, towns, and rural areas now resembled "near-future" utopias.

"Look at these politicians and the elite organizations behind them, bombing cities and people, overthrowing so-called dictators, and planting their victory flags. Is that what they call democracy?!"

Samuel's powerful voice reverberated through the courtroom, but he had no intention of stopping. He continued:

"So tell me, if I handed Atlas's advanced technology to these politicians and the elite powers behind them, what kind of future would the world have?

"Democracy isn't just a staged show where a few journalists argue with the president or the media questions the government's actions.

"Democracy is achieved through action, not empty words!

"People need infrastructure to make their lives easier. They need fair labor to earn proper wages and benefits. They need comprehensive laws and regulations to curb injustice. And they need a powerful military to protect them from both internal and external threats.

"This is what people desire. And this... is the core of Atlas."
