Chapter 131 - 131: Jade Sun City (1)
“Aren’t we going to Biyang City?”
Senator Sun asked a bit nervously.
“No!”
Colonel Chu, shook his head, saying, “The Moon side responded. They said that millions of years ago, one of their spaceships landed on Earth…”
“We are all descendants of the survivors of that fleet…”
“Is this true?”
“Whether it’s true or not doesn’t matter. What’s important is that the Moon side seems to be willing to accept us…”
Saying this, Colonel Chu paused, then added, “I think there’s a great chance it’s true…”
“Zhao Yu, he was just an ordinary man on Earth, was taken to the Moon for six years and entrusted with important duties…”
“He knows every detail of our communications with the Moon side. This shows that they truly value him…”
“But previously, Chen Xiao and the others sent back a message saying that Zhao Yu was dispirited for a while. What’s that all about?!”
“He must have found out about the arrival of the Moro fleet and feared that Earth would be destroyed…”
“That’s probably why Zhao Yu’s mental state recovered later, because they found out that the Moro fleet isn’t as formidable as they had imagined…”
Senator Zhou nodded, then began, “If that’s the case, we won’t leave. However, there’s a strong demand online, and many rich businessmen are using all their connections to inquire about the quotas. They seem very eager to leave…”
“If we hold them back, it could lead to problems…”
After a moment of thought, Senator Chu said, “Let’s just announce to the public that we, Da Xia, are descendants of the Pangu civilization’s fleet. The United Universe Federation actually identifies the Moro fleet, which is here to destroy Earth. Whether they want to leave or not, let them decide for themselves…”
One day, the Da Xia government released a statement that caused a global shock.
“The Aliens from the Moon responded, saying: ‘Millions of years ago, a fleet from the Pangu civilization crashed on Earth, and the crew members stayed and multiplied, leading to the birth of the Da Xia civilization…\'”
“So, we’re descendants of that Pangu civilization?!”
“No wonder, I thought a genuine extraterrestrial civilization coming to Earth would definitely enslave and dominate us forcefully. How could they act like this, offering us technology and products…”
“I was right not to go to Biyang City. When the city was in chaos, I was worried the Moon aliens would retaliate against Earth…”
“Who would have thought, the Moon alsien didn’t react at all…”
“I was quite puzzled back then, but now I understand. A father seeing his son misbehave would always hesitate to punish him harshly. Even a fierce tiger does not eat its cubs…”
“Damn, you’re a joker, the one above! Even if we are descendants of that fleet from millions of years ago, wouldn’t we be of the same generation as the Moon aliens by now?!”
Online discussions were all over the place, with many people overseas expressing their confusion.
“If you Da Xia people are descendants of the Pangu civilization, then who are we?”
“Undoubtedly, you are descendants of us, the great Da Xia people…”
Not long after, the government released another statement.
“According to the Pangu civilization, the so-called ‘United Universe Federation’, named the Moro fleet, is specifically here to destroy Earth…”
“The Pangu civilization is currently protecting Blue Star!”
Once the news was out, the whole internet was buzzing.
Some believed the news, some didn’t. Opinions were all over the place.
For a while, even the rush for escape tickets from Earth had cooled down.
In Da Xia, with the government fanning the flames, most people were willing to believe that the Moon Aliens were fighting for Earth.
But there were also a few skeptics.
“Impossible. 1 can’t believe that people overseas are descendants of Da Xia. How can that be? Our ancestors must have come from overseas…”
“That’s right. Da Xia isn’t worthy of being the ancestor of those overseas. I don’t care. Even if it costs me everything, 1 will leave Da Xia and go to Biyang City…”
At the headquarters of Qiu Qiu Corporation.
The top executives gathered to discuss the issue of escape tickets.
“You’ve all heard the rumors online, haven’t you?”
“We have!”
“We don’t know the exact situation with the Aliens. It was revealed by Da Xia and the Earth Federation…”
“But one thing is certain, Da Xia and the Earth Federation have taken sides…”
“Going to Biyang City means siding with the Blue Star Federation, and staying in Da Xia means siding with the Moon Aliens. What do you all think?”
“I just want to know one thing. Are Senator Chu going to Biyang City?”
“I’ve checked carefully. None of our Da Xia council members are leaving. They’re all staying in Da Xia…”
“Good, then I’m staying too!”
The crowd was confused and looked at the director with glasses, asking for his reason.
The director with glasses smiled faintly, “We don’t know what’s going on with the extraterrestrials fighting near Mars…”
“Who will win, who will lose, we can’t tell right now, let’s assume a 50-50 chance of winning…”
“No matter which side we choose, it’s a 50% probability…”
“Going to Biyang City means giving up everything we have now. Compared to staying, it’s clearly a worse choice…”
“Right, makes sense!”
However, there were those in the crowd who disagreed and stated they wanted to go to Biyang City.
“Okay, that’s your choice. If you want to go, then go…”
Scenes like this were happening everywhere.
Directors of major financial groups across the country were all facing a choice: to choose overseas or to choose Da Xia.
Three days flew by quickly. Da Xia’s 200,000 escape tickets were all sold. Most were purchased by overseas buyers, and a small portion were purchased domestically, bringing back a large number of high-tech companies.
Especially a chip company on the island, which had moved overseas six years ago, now moved back to Da Xia just to collect enough upper-level escape tickets.
Biyang City became a place bustling with the wealthy, attracting global attention.
“Biyang City is now probably the number one city in the world, right?!”
“Definitely, it’s said that the total net worth of people in Biyang City exceeds 1,000 trillion…”
“Wow, average net worth of 1 billion?”
“Why not? Top-tier billionaires have all bought escape tickets. Some individuals are worth hundreds of billions alone, and that doesn’t even account for the wealth hidden by their families…”
“Damn, will Earth become a slum in the future?!”
“Possibly, the rich might move to Mars, and the poor will stay on Earth…”
“Now, I appoint the 10th Fleet’s Kether as the main force in this battle…”
Moro’s appointment stirred up a lot of discussion, with many feeling he might be biased.
However, Kether of the 10th Fleet was pleased. He lifted his head, his nostrils flaring at the crowd. After a sweeping glance around, he stepped forward to accept his assignment.
“Kether, the task of destroying Earth is now in your hands…”
“Before your breakthrough, 1 will send other fleets to assist and widen the gap as much as possible, destroying enemy ships near the Dark Fire line…”
“Additionally, we will release an electromagnetic wave interference, which will make all wireless communications within a range of 10,000 kilometers near the Dark Fire line fail. Then, it will be up to you…”
“Don’t worry, as long as we can successfully break through, we are sure to win!”
Kether was full of confidence. One fleet was enough to destroy Blue Star.
“Great, we wish you success then!”
