Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ladies and gentlemen, its March 16, 2029, Summer City time. We have some great news. The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p from the United Federation of the Universe has broken through the alien blockade on the moon

According to our scanners, the United Federations s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p is heading towards our Earth. They heard our call for help and are coming to our aid The news broke, and cheers erupted worldwide.

People dressed in festive colors took to the streets, singing and dancing, welcoming the arrival of the Federations s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.

To celebrate the breakthrough by the United Federations s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, all games under Qiuqiu are offering a recharge bonuswhatever you recharge, you get the same amount for free

To wish the United Federation a swift victory, Famalette is offering car purchase discounts. Buy any Famalette car model and get a $10,000 voucher Major businesses seized this opportunity to launch significant promotional deals.

The Earth Federation also stepped up to the plate.

Xiadu City announced that there would be no restrictions on fireworks for seven days throughout the region. People could freely light firecrackers and fireworks.

Overseas, the celebration was even wilder, launching 88 rockets in celebration.

Whoosh!

A rocket burst through the clouds, releasing colorful fireworks.

Looking at the bustling scene outside the window, Colonel Chus brows furrowed tightly.

Is the United Federation truly here to save the Earth?!

Ever since the message from the Universe Federation of the Universe arrived, the Earth Federation seemed bewitched, taking sides with the Universe Federation overwhelmingly.

Everyone believed that aligning with a universe federation that held 77 great civilizations would promise a brighter future than the unknown moon aliens. n.o.body seemed willing to probe whether the Universe Federation truly exists, or whether they genuinely respect all original civilizations and treat them equally as they claim.

Something feels off

Colonel Chu could understand the jubilation and extremism of the Earth Federation. The stress came from the moon, a power that could destroy the Earth at any time.

Facing powerful aliens, there was little the Earth could do. Their remaining sanity was marked by a fear of death.

No one could predict whether the Earth would be destroyed tomorrow or the day after.

The moon aliens were like a deity hanging over their heads.

Until the Universe Federation appeared, offering a counterbalance to this G.o.d. Even if this new G.o.d might be more terrifying than the old one, under the tyranny of the old G.o.d, people placed their hopes in the new G.o.d, especially since it expressed plenty of goodwill.

After some thought, Colonel Chu stood up, summoning several other members for an impromptu meeting.

Chu, why so serious on this day of celebration?

Senator Sun had neatly combed his hair, looking quite spirited.

Colonel Chu glanced at the smiling faces around him. He shook his head and asked, Are you certain that the Universe Federation is here to save the Earth? What if their arrival accelerates the destruction of the Earth?

The smiles faded. Everyone exchanged glances.

Senator Zhou stepped forward and sighed, I know what youre thinking. We know extreme adoration isnt good

But can it get any worse?!

He wore a bitter expression, The moon aliens possess the power to end the world, and were like ants, trying carefully to figure out their intentions Up to this point, we still dont know what they truly look like or even their appearance

Senator Sun also stepped forward and said solemnly, If the Universe Federations message is genuine, then we can still maintain certain human rights

If its false, we are merely changing the name of the G.o.d hanging over our heads

Councilman Zhou nodded, The damage to the moon aliens mothers.h.i.+p is just our speculation, deduced from their behavior

But who really knows the actual situation

Maybe, theyre keeping us for other unknown reasons that only we possess

Such as our souls?

Colonel Chu fell silent. He thought he was the only sober one among drunks, but it turned out everyone was just trying to drown their sorrows in alcohol. After a while, he raised his head, The outcome isnt determined yet. The Universe Federation has only broken through with one s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p. Betting too early is risky

We cant reverse what weve done these past few days, but we should take some remedial actions

What actions?

An action that can save part of the Earths population if the Universe Federation is defeated

Senator Zhou frowned and instinctively looked at the sky, murmuring, You mean, make them take the fall?

No, just hedging our bets. Didnt the clans and families in ancient chaotic times always leave a way out, especially when we represent the entire Earth? He pointed to the Three Kingdoms era when everyone knew Zhuge Liang served as Liu Bels advisor and the Prime Minister of Shu, but not many knew that his brother Zhuge Jin had joined East Wu early on, becoming Sun Quans general.

This way, no matter who ultimately won, the Zhuge family could maintain their n.o.bility and lineage.

How do we maneuver with such an ugly situation?

Theres always a way

Overseas backs the United Federation, and our Great Summer backs the moon aliens

This is a gamble with the lives of all our people in the Xiadu

Some sacrifices are necessary to keep the fire of the Earth alive

The underground city plan wasnt mentioned again. Given the aliens demonstrated power, if they wanted to find it, hiding underground wouldnt save anyone.

Senator Sun hesitated, Why should our Great Summer back the moon? Why not another region

Intuition!

Colonel Chu shook his head, I just feel the moon aliens are more mysterious The Mars Defense Line, as we know, didnt exist before the Earth was sealed off

In less than three months, theyve established such a ma.s.sive defense line. And according to our detection, there are 12 large military bases and over 200,000 wars.h.i.+ps inside the line!

These were clearly built in just these few months

The moon sides ability to rapidly militarize is terrifying to the point of causing fear!

The members discussed quietly and finally accepted Colonel Chus suggestion, In that case, youll be in charge of this matter

Yes, next, we need to slightly control the public opinion of the Xiadu and try to maintain a low profile in major events. Didnt Smith propose appointing a chairman for the Earth Federation to communicate with the Universe Federation?

If he wants to take the lead, let him

Colonel Chu nodded and asked, How much resources have we acc.u.mulated? 1.5 billion Blue Moon coins worth of resources. What are you planning? We cant back the moon side empty-handed.
