Five days later.

Commander, the enemy has retreated to the vicinity of Jupiter

Uncle Da seemed a little relieved. Our strategists are still quite useful. Our offensive has not only driven back the enemy but also patched up the gap in our first line of defense

Zhao Yu nodded and smiled, saying, Given the current situation, they should run out of fuel in a few days

According to Colonel Chus a.n.a.lysis, the enemy would have two possible responses in this situation.

First, they might risk everything and launch a final counterattack. Second, they might choose to withdraw from the solar system.

Yes, it wont be long before were safe

Uncle Da thought for a moment, then relayed recent changes on Earth.

Commander, there have been some movements on Earth as well

Whats happening there?

The currencies in all regions of Earth have now been issued in

high-denomination bills

Moreover, all major banks have started to flood the market with money, providing large-scale subsidies to the public, and directly handing out cash

What does this mean?!

Zhao Yu was taken aback. Realizing that Uncle Da didnt have an answer, he decided to leave the base and head to the command center to ask Colonel Chu what these movements on Earth meant.

Earth currently has over two hundred types of currencies, which complicates transactions. They plan to induce inflation, sc.r.a.p all existing currencies, and introduce a new one

Colonel Chu paused, then added, The idea of Da Xia is to unify the global currency, language, measurements, and so on

Earth is now suffering from serious internal friction. The majority of peoples jobs are meaningless and merely exist to maintain stability

This is not beneficial for the development of civilization

Last week, the biotech technology you traded with Earth led to a tenfold increase in food production

Now, they have a foundation for a harmonious society

So, theyre aiming to use this opportunity to initiate a transformation, eliminating meaningless jobs, expanding welfare systems, and guiding all of humanity to work towards advancing civilization

Zhao Yu nodded slightly. Thats good news. They can borrow the one million robots from Blue Moon if needed

Thank you, Commander. With the aid of a million robots, the reforms would be much easier to implement

Colonel Chu, greatly pleased, thanked him promptly.

While these words seemed simple, the process was proving to be quite challenging on Earth.

The main obstacle was the entrenched interest groups. Their greatest wealth was the poor, and social change threatened to cut off their means to wield power.

Especially, Earth intended to eliminate the wealth gap through inflation.

Consider this: Zhang San has 1 billion, and Li Si has 100,000.

If everyone gets 100 million, Zhang Sans wealth increases by a tenth, whereas Li Sis wealth increases a thousand times.

Zhang Sans total wealth would be 1.1 billion, while Li Sis wealth would become 100 million. The wealth gap, initially 10,000 times, would shrink to 10 times.

Finally, when the time was right, they would replace the existing currency with a new one under a new system.

Captain, Leader Seths fleet has retreated to the vicinity of Jupiter

Captain, Leader Seth has sent a message. It seems that the enemys s.h.i.+ps are controlled by robots. Hes requesting to use the robot source code

Aboard the mothers.h.i.+p, Seth constantly examined the star map, his eyebrows tightly knitted.

The robot source code, according to Audas plan, should be held back until the final a.s.sault.

If it was used now, it could alert the enemy, leading them to take some countermeasures.

However, without using the robot source code, they couldnt proceed to the second step of their plan.

To blow up the Jupiter, they needed to drop support troops as they pa.s.sed by the planet. Furthermore, they needed to install large electromagnetic interference devices in the asteroid belt.

There was also the fourth-generation star destroyer cannon, which also had to be installed in the asteroid belt. Besides, Seths fleet was getting farther and farther from the planned location and actual attack point in the plan.

If this continued, let alone the matter of revealing the robot source code or not, Audas plan would not be achievable at all.

Moro was somewhat helpless. The battlefield was always changing. Audas plans had seemed flawless when he was around.

But now, Moro had no choice but to expose the robot source code as a means of attack.

Shaking his head, Moro decided not to dwell on it and said, Give the order, use the Renegade robot source code. Lets kick these robots out

The Glenn civilization had experienced a robot rebellion. They had various types of robot source codes, one of which was the Renegade prototype that led a group of robots to escape from human civilization and head towards the desolate cosmos. Unfortunately, their technology wasnt advanced enough at the time of their rebellion to develop wormholes, so they had to escape to the neighboring galaxy by flight.

Eventually, using wormhole jumps, the Glenn civilization laid an early ambush. When the Renegade robots, who had been flying for over 500 years, arrived in the neighboring galaxy, they were caught.

When will this ever end?!

Seths face showed extreme fatigue. These days, under the pursuit of tens of thousands of wars.h.i.+ps, their fleet was always on the move, constantly dodging.

Every crew member only had three hours of rest each day. Seth himself barely slept, relying on injections to keep himself awake.

Seeing no one responding, Seth looked around the room.

He found everyone looking downhearted, staring blankly at their workstations, with no desire to respond.

Ah!

Seth sighed deeply. In the battlefield, fleeing was always demoralizing. They had been on the run for almost ten days, and as fuel became increasingly scarce, the crews morale had hit rock bottom.

Beep beep!

Just as Seth was feeling dejected, a message finally came from the mothers.h.i.+p.

He hurriedly opened and read it.

This is Captain Moro. Im authorizing the use of the Renegade source code to the Vanguard Fleet for an attack on the enemys wars.h.i.+ps

Seth was overjoyed and promptly announced the good news. Guys, the captain has allowed us to use the source code!!!

However, everyone was unmoved, their minds not functioning well due to chronic sleep deprivation.

Seth quickly added, Were about to win, soon we wont have to run anymore, and everyone will be able to sleep!

Only then did everyone slowly come to their senses, but there were still no smiles on their faces.

Lack of sleep over a long time severely affects ones spirit, emotional control, and judgment.

Seth didnt say much else, and directly ordered the other fleets to use the Renegade source code against the enemy wars.h.i.+ps pursuing them.

Outside Jupiter, tens of thousands of wars.h.i.+ps swarmed back and forth, chasing and blocking Seths fleeing fleet.

Sizzle !

At that moment, an electromagnetic signal suddenly burst from Seths fleet, shooting directly towards the pursuing fleet behind.

In just an instant, over a thousand wars.h.i.+ps that were close and received the signal slowed down and stopped in the middle of the universe.

As time pa.s.sed, more and more wars.h.i.+ps came to a halt. After 30 seconds, all 50,000 pursuing wars.h.i.+ps had stopped.

Another minute pa.s.sed, and the more than 50,000 wars.h.i.+ps seemed to have snapped out of it. This time, they didnt chase after Seths fleet but instead headed towards Neptune.

At this moment, Neptune, Pluto, and Mars formed a triangle. Heading towards Neptune meant not wanting to be involved in the war.

The awakened Renegade robots seemed to want to stay at Neptune, or maybe they intended to escape the solar system from Neptune, fleeing into the universe..
