July 28, 20 days have passed since the advent of the apocalypse. On this day, leaders of 200 bases, along with their trusted aides, gathered together at the Nanyuan base.
Everyone’s mood was incredibly complex.
In the past twelve hours, they had received numerous messages, with each one being extraordinary in its significance.
Du Gang proposed the effect of a 10,000-ton nuclear explosion!
An alien spaceship appeared on Earth!
The aliens have arrived!
Aliens fought with Du Gang, the aftermath hit to the equivalent of a 3-3 million ton hydrogen bomb explosion!
Another alien spaceship arrived!
The first alien spaceship was driven away!
The Spatial Channels disappeared!
The second alien spaceship gave Du Gang a watch!
A meeting was held in Nanyuan to discuss major national affairs!
Such a sequence of news left them dumbfounded.
The most frustrating part was that these news updates were coming every few minutes, causing their emotions to fluctuate unpredictably.
Fortunately, everything was finally over!
The meeting place was a command center near the top floor, which was only recently established and had already welcomed its first major conference.
The conference room was enormous, providing almost 300 seats.
From the 134 small bases, only one person per base was allowed to enter the conference room.
From the 66 bases plus the Arctic Circle, each was allowed to bring in two people.
In addition to this, Du Gang was allowed to enter and could bring one other person with him. He naturally chose Chu Zixuan to accompany him.
The whole meeting had a total of 268 representatives attending. The hosts were Yao Zhenguo and Li Mingzhi, the two individuals who had previously held the highest official positions.
Before the meeting began, the Nanyuan base had already prepared for each base a dossier concerning the cosmos.
This included information about the Wasteland Star Domain, the Cosmic Civilization Protection Association, and much other information obtained from the watch.
The seats assigned to Du Gang and Chu Zixuan were placed at the very front where practically everyone could see them.
After all the representatives entered, Yao Zhenguo quickly took to the podium.
After a brief introduction, he got straight to the point, “Everyone, have you all read the material that was distributed to you?!”
Once everyone nodded, he continued, “The theme of our meeting today has two points… ”
“First, to unify Earth!”
“Second, to discuss trading with the Cosmic Civilization Protection
Association…’
“Now, let us proceed with the first item on the agenda—about the unification of Earth!”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone said, “We are originally from the same country. Reunification is normal, appropriate, and legitimate…”
This person was one of the military representatives. Regarding reunification, he had no objections.
Before he could finish speaking, someone else could not hold it in any longer.
“That can’t be said. After the apocalypse, the concept of a country no longer exists… My people chose me. They asked me to lead them. In their eyes, the only person they can trust is me…”
“Yes, the situation is the same in our base. All civilians trust only me…”
These people, having seized power, worried that they would be purged after reunification.
Everyone turned to look at one another, and the entire conference room was divided into three parts. One part was the 30 base representatives controlled by the military, totaling 60 people, who leaned toward unification.
The second part was the representatives of the bases who had seized power, numbering around 30.
The third part was representatives from the spontaneously organized bases. They made up the majority, but since they had neither seized power nor declared independence, they did not hastily join any faction but chose to wait and see.
People had not finished speaking when Yao Zhenguo solemnly said, “Unification is imperative!”
Once the room had quietened down, he continued, “What we are facing next is the entire universe, and there is a host of problems waiting for us. If we want Earth civilization to go further, we should unify..
The people in the second part below him paid no heed, insisting that the civilians of their bases only recognized them.
And so, the conference room became noisy again.
People had been arguing for over ten minutes, and Du Gang was growing tired when Chu Zixuan suddenly stood up next to him.
Seeing someone stand up, the voices of the others quickly faded away.
Chu Zixuan slowly took to the stage. After looking around the audience, he finally spoke, “My name is Chu Zixuan, a friend of Du Gang, and a Major in the
Nanyuan Base!”
After he safely returned to Nanyuan Base with Du Gang, Wang Dezhen promoted him to the rank of Major.
“Regarding the unification of Earth, I think, it should not be discussed like this…”
“Now is not the time to lock the doors and quarrel. No matter how fiercely you argue or how many reasons you have, what use will it be when alien civilizations descend upon us?”
“When discussing the unification of Earth, it should start from the outside…”
“First of all, it has been a long time since Earth was exposed. From this disaster, we can see that Earth is fragile, and Earth’s human civilization is also fragile…”
“Before this, we were merely a primitive civilization…”
“But now, because Du Gang’s power is comparable to that of a meteorite level, we have been promoted to a first-grade cosmic civilization…”
“Possessing more possibilities…”
“The struggle between countries, I think you leaders, more than myself, understand the perils and complexities within…”
“The Wasteland Star Region is our first step from Earth to the universe…” “There, there are many civilizations far stronger than Earth…”
“Why was I recognized as a first-grade civilization?”
“It’s Du Gang’s power! His strength, comparable to a meteorite level, is the key to us becoming a first-grade civilization!”
“Without Du Gang, we would still be a primitive civilization!”
“Without Du Gang, even if we died, we wouldn’t know that this disaster was engineered by aliens…”
“And, as you’ve seen, the alien who plotted against us was killed by Du Gang, and the others were driven away…”
“Also, I need to remind you, the watch that the aliens gave, was given to Du
Gang. The only one who can have an equal dialogue with aliens is also Du Gang…”
“In alien’s eyes, Du Gang is the ruler of this planet, and we are all his subjects…”
“So, I propose the establishment of a coexistence body centered around Du Gang! ”
Chu Zixuan’s words stunned everyone.
All the people, including those who had been watching, began to debate among themselves.
They didn’t know whether Chu Zixuan was speaking on behalf of Du Gang or himself.
Honestly, Du Gang’s current strength has reached a terrifying level. If he wanted to establish a kingdom or declare himself emperor, no one here could stop him.
Who dares to?
All of us are gathered here in Nanyuan, what good will nuclear weapons do now?
Not to mention whether it could kill Du Gang, just look at it now, if Du Gang, transformed into a giant, stomps his foot, would you die or not? If people are dead, who cares about the future?
Some of those present, although somewhat reluctant, did not dare to flatly refuse.
“We agree with Chu Zixuan’s proposal to establish a coexistence body centered on Du Gang!”
All the people were stunned, staring at them incredulously.
You should know, they were always against…
At this point, the representatives of the other 134 small bases also stood up and expressed their agreement.
They actually didn’t care, as whoever ruled was irrelevant to them, but now, staying silent might annoy Du Gang. The consequence of which was unknown… but they were afraid of his foot stomping.
The majority agreed, and the remaining thirty or so representatives reluctantly stood up and expressed their agreement. Then, a surprising scene occurred.
Du Gang suddenly stood up.
“Enough, everyone stop trying to make a historical u-turn. I’m not going to play king or emperor. Let’s just establish an Earth Alliance focused on the collective interests of the Earth’s population…”
Having said this, he turned and walked away. The things these people were saying were giving him a headache.
As for being king, he truly had no such intention. If the tadpole had evolved, who would inherit the throne would be a problematic issue.
Everyone watched as Du Gang departed, looking at each other helplessly.
Everyone present was astute and immediately understood Du Gang’s tactic of taking a step back.
“Well, let’s establish an Earth Alliance with the collective interests of Earth’s population in mind. However, following cosmic civilization customs, we need a Planet Guardian… ”
“The only choice, definitely, has to be Du Gang!”
In the end, under Chu Zixuan’s instigation, the Earth Alliance was established. According to those present, they became the first batch of the Alliance’s councilors.
In addition to this, Du Gang also became a Planet Guardian, and concurrently the leader of the Earth Alliance, with Yao Zhenguo taking on the role of vice-leader.
As everyone imagined, the leader was a nominal figure, high above, while the vice-leader was the one who dealt with affairs!
Once the roles were decided, there was pretty much nothing else to dispute about.
Next, with Du Gang absent, everyone discussed and finalized the following matters.
Externally, they called themselves the Hua Clan, while internally, the Earth Alliance handled affairs.
Regarding the borrowing from the Cosmic Civilization Protection Association, everyone reached a consensus and chose the provided infrastructure service.
At the same time, to revive the Hua Clan and rejuvenate the Earth, the Alliance decided to re-plan the national capital.
Utilizing alien technology, a large-scale city facing the universe was built!
Then, global relocation began, with a new layout and rational planning…
Just in time, apart from the Hua Clan, there were no other people left on Earth.
Moreover, there were still surviving dinosaurs and bugs in many places worldwide. Everyone ultimately decided to postpone the complete extermination of the mutant beasts. Instead, they would wait for these beasts to demolish the existing global buildings and then remove them.
Even at Chu Zixuan’s suggestion, people left a large landmass in the farthest west for bugs and dinosaurs to live. Its purpose was to obtain crystals!
Under the Alliance’s plan, training superpowered individuals became national policy. A specialized college was even established for these individuals, specifically for training the new generation.
After all, the cosmic rule dictates that strength commands respect.. Possessing strong individuals means possessing power and having everything!
