Chapter 597  Evolving Planet

The arrival of visitors from space ushered in a new era, as merchant associations extended their support to assist with the planet\'s development. The bustling activity of these interstellar traders brought hope and progress to the people of Earth.

One of the most formidable challenges lay in the vast swamps that dotted the planet\'s surface. These marshy lands had long been a hindrance to progress.

But with the combined efforts of advanced technology and skilled outworlders, the wetlands were being transformed into a new part of New Lycania, the flagship country leading the charge towards a brighter future.

However, amidst the excitement of progress, Ricochet couldn\'t help but feel a tinge of concern. He understood that with the increasing influx of intergalactic visitors, Earth would become a prime target for potential threats from outer space.

With his small team of loyal comrades, Ricochet had been shouldering the responsibility of defending Earth, but the task was becoming overwhelming.

Merchant associations had indeed hired a considerable number of mercenaries to bolster Earth\'s defences. Still, Ricochet knew that the sheer cost of maintaining such a force would soon surpass their resources.

With more than ten thousand mercenaries stationed across the planet, the financial strain was mounting, threatening to impede progress and put Earth at risk.

However, Ricochet\'s worries were soon alleviated when Ashton, the ever-vigilant leader, anticipated their needs without even being asked.

Recognising the importance of a robust fighting force, Ashton dispatched thousands of low-level recruits to Earth, ensuring that the lack of manpower would be adequately addressed for the time being.

Little did Ricochet know that Ashton had complete access to whatever was happening on Earth through the \'Base Management\' perk.

But it wasn\'t just bodies on the battlefield that Ashton provided. He also understood the significance of knowledge and technology in levelling the playing field.

Ashton sent a group of seasoned teachers and advanced technology to Earth, empowering the planet\'s inhabitants with the tools and skills necessary to catch up to the interstellar standards.

The arrival of the recruits injected a renewed sense of hope among the people of Earth. The new fighters, though inexperienced, were eager to learn and contribute to the defence of their home planet.

Under the guidance of the seasoned teachers, they began their training, honing their skills and developing a sense of unity and purpose. But some would say they were working hard to join Ashton\'s private crew one day.

Ricochet himself took on the mentor role, guiding the recruits with his wealth of experience. He shared stories of their previous battles, emphasising the importance of discipline, teamwork, and unwavering determination.

The Earthlings listened attentively to their teachers, their eyes filled with admiration and respect for the seasoned warriors from space.

Tarek was one of the people Ashton had sent to Earth to safeguard himself from the watchful eyes of the cult and the empire and to share his knowledge and expertise with the people of Earth.

Having spent years honing his scientific acumen, Tarek possessed a wealth of knowledge that could propel Earth\'s technological advancements to new heights.

Ashton recognised the value of Tarek\'s expertise and saw an opportunity for him to make a meaningful impact on the planet.

Arriving on Earth, Tarek quickly immersed himself in his mission. He sought out eager learners who had a thirst for knowledge and a passion for scientific discovery.

Through his teachings, Tarek introduced them to advanced scientific concepts, unveiling the universe\'s wonders and providing them with a deeper understanding of the laws governing the cosmos. So that none of them felt out of space once they were recruited by the ghosts.

Tarek\'s lessons were not confined to mere theory; he believed in the practical application of knowledge. He led his students through a series of hands-on experiments and encouraged them to think critically, fostering a spirit of innovation and problem-solving.

The Earthlings embraced this opportunity with open minds and hearts, eager to absorb Tarek\'s wisdom. As Tarek guided his students, he also found solace in the journey. Earth\'s beauty and diversity fascinated him.

The knowledge exchange became a two-way street as Tarek learned from the Earthlings\' unique perspectives and incorporated their insights into his teachings.

In turn, Tarek found comfort in his newfound role as a mentor and protector. He watched as his students blossomed into brilliant scientists, their minds ignited with a passion for discovery.

Together, they pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible, embarking on groundbreaking research projects that held the potential to shape the future of Earth.

However, Tarek\'s presence on Earth was not solely focused on scientific endeavours. He also remained vigilant, constantly aware of the lingering threat posed by the cult and the empire.

He knew that he had to keep a low profile, ensuring his safety and those around him. Though he had evaded their grasp thus far, Tarek understood the importance of remaining vigilant and cautious.

With each passing day, the Earthlings grew stronger, their progress evident in how they handled their weapons and executed combat manoeuvres.

The technology provided by Ashton augmented their abilities, enabling them to compete on a level playing field with their interstellar counterparts.

But it wasn\'t just the recruits who benefited from Ashton\'s assistance. The Earthlings, as a whole, saw remarkable advancements in various fields. The influx of advanced technology accelerated the planet\'s development, propelling it forward in leaps and bounds.

Scientific breakthroughs, efficient energy sources, and sustainable practices became the norm, shaping Earth into a beacon of progress and innovation.

Ricochet, standing amidst the bustling city, looked around with a sense of pride and fulfilment. Once on the brink of destruction, Earth was now on the path to becoming a force to be reckoned with.

The unity among its people, fueled by their shared purpose and the guidance of Ashton and his allies, was an unstoppable force.

With a renewed commitment to protect their newfound prosperity, the Earthlings stood ready to face any challenges. Their journey had only just begun, and they were determined to forge their own destiny in the vast expanse of the cosmos.

And so, with their ranks bolstered, their knowledge expanded, and their spirits aflame, the people of Earth embarked on a path of progress, determined to prove themselves to the galaxy and secure their place among the stars.

Unaware that their leader had already found a spot for them in the Orion Empire. A shot that countless worlds would destroy each other to become a part of the Orion Empire.
