BXBX NOVEL Chapter 699 Reaction
The live stream setup was sophisticated, featuring multiple cameras positioned in various locations.
These cameras were capable of focusing on different significant events simultaneously, with the ability to zoom in on objects without any loss of quality, provided the objects weren’t protected by privacy laws.
This meant the empire was employing military-grade surveillance technology for what was essentially a live broadcast. Numerous cameras were placed throughout the star system and above the planet\'s orbit, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
As a result, viewers had the option to watch the live stream from the same camera but see entirely different perspectives based on their preferences. The official broadcast provided a general view, while viewers\' personalized AIs allowed them to request specific zooms and tailored views that catered to their individual interests. This customization ensured that each viewer could focus on the details that mattered most to them, enhancing their overall experience.
As soon as the situation unfolded, most viewers adjusted their interest parameters to focus exclusively on the ongoing events. Since these customized settings could be made public for others to replicate, the most popular configurations quickly became trending on the live stream\'s parameter page. This allowed anyone wanting to catch up on the situation to select the most popular or detailed view, ensuring they could follow the events in the most comprehensive way possible.
This led to a widespread viewership of the situation, as people everywhere were now able to see the full scope of events. Videos detailing the situation were quickly uploaded to every social media platform, allowing those who couldn’t access the live stream in real-time to catch up through these recordings. The result was a global audience thoroughly informed about the unfolding events.

“Yep, that’s it, I’m out,” an awakener said as he stood up from the meeting, where the group had been strategizing on how to use their powers to rally more of their kind and gradually increase their influence for a potential coup d\'état.
The mood in the room had shifted dramatically when they were alerted to watch the live stream, as the emperor had been attacked. The possibility that the emperor might die had given them fleeting hope.
However, when they watched the livestream and witnessed the extent of the emperor’s power, their hopes quickly dissipated. The footage showed him effortlessly fending off over a thousand attacks per second for more than a minute, with none of the attacks even coming close to reaching him. This display of overwhelming strength made it clear to everyone that even if over a million awakeners were to gang up on him, they would surely face certain defeat. The realization that their plans were futile led them and him to reconsider their ambitions.
No one even attempted to stop him from leaving, and some even followed behind him, their hopes and dreams shattered by the overwhelming display of power they had just witnessed. Within minutes, only about five people remained in the meeting room—extremists among extremists—clinging to their delusions despite the clear evidence of their insignificance.
“I think we should look for those who won’t be intimidated by his show of force,” the would-be leader suggested. “It’s most likely just theater designed to deter people like us. Otherwise, why keep the live stream going? The problem is, we won’t be able to convince anyone since they’ll see our efforts as sending them to useless deaths.” His friends nodded in agreement, sharing his resolve despite the odds.
“I agree, but for now, we should lie low and wait until others who think like us reveal themselves,” his friend, the self-proclaimed mastermind, said while adjusting his glasses—purely for show since everyone on Earth currently had perfect vision. “Then, and only then, will we retry what we were attempting to create today.”
Just as flat earthers existed even during the era of space stations, there will always be those who view everything shown to them as part of a conspiracy. They believe it’s all a ploy by the "evil government" to maintain power and keep them subservient.
Similar conversations with varying outcomes were unfolding across the solar system. Many groups either disbanded in the wake of the overwhelming display of power, while others formed fan clubs and support groups, rallying around the newfound respect and admiration for the emperor.

“My expectations of his power were already high, but this—this is beyond even the strongest I imagined him to be,” Youssef, the Minister of the Exterior, remarked as he watched the live stream. His feed had all public limitations and blocks removed, supplemented by additional data from various sensors both on and around the planet that were not available to the general public.
“I’m now wondering why he didn’t interfere during the last world war,” Jeremy, the Minister of the Exterior, mused, extending his thoughts beyond the current situation.
“He never needed to intervene personally. His position ensured that he wielded absolute military power, capable of handling situations from behind the scenes,” John, the Minister of War, replied. He had joined them in watching the live stream, having seen the earlier discussion between the emperor and the tree folks before the situation escalated and the emperor\'s decisive actions took place.
He was the least surprised among them. Whatever challenges the emperor faced, he always believed the emperor would emerge victorious. This conviction was consistently reinforced by the miracles he had witnessed during his service.
“That is true,” Youssef agreed, recalling files he had read from the omniscient perspective. Those records revealed how the emperor always held the necessary cards to resolve any situation but chose to withhold action until he had no other option but to intervene.
“Do you think they will now hand over their people to us, or will they turn into our enemies now that two of their elders have essentially been dealt with?” Jeremy asked. Although he was not yet fully briefed on how the situation had been handled, he moved on to the next step, knowing he would be updated once the entire situation was concluded.
“Based on what we saw during the fight and the Proximians\' reaction to the situation, I think that even if they don\'t join us, they won\'t turn into enemies, at least,” John said. He knew that although the emperor usually pulled his punches, he wouldn\'t have left the situation unresolved. When the emperor acted, he always made sure to finish what he started to prevent any reappearance of the issue.
