The Human Race was at loggerheads with the Dark Elves.
Due to the loss of the epic motherships, the Human Race was forced to enter a defensive stance.
But the Dark Elves would not care about that; their only goal was to break through the Human Race’s defenses and capture Wang Hao as their male pet.
The post-war recovery period.
The high-level leaders of the Human Race were in urgent discussions about a strategy.
President Han Yang frowned and asked, “Is there still no news of Wang Hao?”
None of the big shots present shook their heads, indicating that their own forces had not received any information regarding Wang Hao.
However, the nobles’ eyes lit up. As long as Wang Hao didn’t show up, they could more easily turn the story of Wang Hao’s betrayal of the Human Race into fact.
That way, they wouldn’t have to worry about the commoners rising up and threatening their status.
“Since there’s no news of Wang Hao, let’s move on to discuss the reconstruction of the epic motherships!” Han Yang sighed, feeling exhausted.
With the current whereabouts of the epic motherships unknown, it seemed there was no other way to avoid being overrun by the Dark Elves than to rebuild.
But this time was different from the last. Previously, they had the collective top-level scientists and technicians of the Human Race, along with an already half-built mothership and ample funds, which allowed them to successfully construct five epic motherships in about a week.
But now, not only did they have to start from scratch, but they also lacked top-level scientists and technicians, and most importantly, there were no abundant funds. No one could say for sure when the construction could be completed.
No sooner had he finished speaking than all the nobles started clamoring.
“We don’t have money this time.”
“That’s right, we have already contributed funds before.”
“And Wang Hao blew up Emperor Star, causing our family’s treasury to go missing; we truly have no money now.”
“Our family’s wealth accumulated over a thousand years has been entirely taken away by Wang Hao.”
“……”
Le Yuanguang, his face cold, said, “The money for the five epic motherships built last time was ninety percent donated by ordinary people; it hardly had anything to do with you nobles. Even though your family treasuries are gone, your family’s properties are still there. This time, if anyone dares not to contribute funds, I’ll eradicate your whole clan.”
As his words fell, the nobles erupted.
“Don’t say we have no money; even if we did, we wouldn’t contribute it.”
“This time we, the nobles, will not yield. If you push us too far, we might as well sever ties.”
“That’s right, whether the Dark Elves break through has nothing to do with us.”
“It never had much to do with us in the first place. We were here on the frontline defending against the Dark Elves for the sake of our own rule, but now our noble status is nearly gone, so who wants to do this thankless task!”
“We nobles will retreat to our homes and live in seclusion, let’s see who will be afraid then.”
“……”
“Enough!” Shui Yao slammed the table angrily and snorted, “Do you nobles really think that after enjoying so many years of glory and wealth, you can just walk away so easily?”
At these words, the faces of the nobles changed dramatically, and fear began to creep into their hearts. Do these old immortals really intend to wipe them out?!
Just then, a voice rang out, “Nobles rise and fall together!”
“Nobles rise and fall together!”
The nobles’ spirits were lifted, and they began to shout along. They didn’t believe these old immortals would dare to kill so many of them at once.
Han Yang, watching the situation that was about to spiral out of control, felt a splitting headache.
He had thought that becoming the President of the entire Human Race was a wonderful thing, but the pressure turned out to be unbearable.
Above him, the Martial Venerables, who were old and refused to be disciplined, acted solely based on their own whims. They would change the rules within the Human Race on a whim, never considering the consequences.
Below him, these nobles thought about nothing but how to slack off and make money. Getting them to do a bit of work would immediately lead to them deflecting responsibility, infuriating him to the point of wanting to kill the bastards.
What gave him the biggest headache was Wang Hao, this little ancestor who caused trouble everywhere. Every incident provoked by him would shock the entire Human Race and destabilize internal affairs.
It could be said that the current uncontrollable situation was entirely caused by Wang Hao. He could definitely pinpoint Wang Hao as the instigator of this disaster.
But what could he do when Wang Hao’s father was Wang Tianyi, the man who had graciously handed over the presidential position to him? He was left with no choice but to turn a blind eye.
Just as the argument reached a fever pitch, a soldier walked in.
Seeing this, everyone in the room tensed up in unison. Had the Dark Elves attacked again?
The soldier reported, “Report, former President of the Interstellar Federation, the Grand Commander, and the Seven Demons have returned.”
“Tsk!”
As soon as the words were uttered, a wave of sighs filled the room. It was those three isolated Martial Saints, making them worrying that the Dark Elves had launched another attack.
They had been defending against the Dark Elves for five days and had just rested for an hour. If the enemy attacked again, they would be utterly spent!
Before long, six figures appeared at the doorway. It was Wang Hao, disguised as Zhan Wudi, alongside Qian Wanyang and Chen Yao, who were impersonating Mu Ye and Lin Yun, as well as the three Martial Saints, Guan Xinxiong, the Seven Demons, and Liao Xuefeng.
Yet the entire room was stunned. They saw that the three Martial Saints, Guan Xinxiong, the Seven Demons, and Liao Xuefeng, were actually following behind the three youths as if they were attendants.
Especially the leading youth, who had a face that exuded an imposing aura, stood out remarkably from the rest.
Seeing this, everyone present pondered who this youth could be and why he could make three Martial Saints show such expressions.
Xia Weiwei’s grandfather, Xia Dongsheng, furrowed his brows. He felt like he had seen this youth somewhere but couldn’t recall where at the moment.
Wang Tianyi’s brows were also tightly knitted; he felt an inexplicable familiarity with the youth leading the group, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
Yet, he was certain he had never met this youth.
At this moment, Guan Xinxiong, the Seven Demons, and Liao Xuefeng swiftly stepped forward, pulled President Han Yang from his seat, and invited Wang Hao to take his place.
“You…” Han Yang was fuming with rage. How could these three individuals disregard him, the President, so blatantly?
Just then, Xia Dongsheng suddenly called out, “You are Zhan Wudi!”
Guan Xinxiong smiled and introduced, “That’s right, this is the top talent from the Sky Yang Star System, Zhan Wudi!”
As he finished speaking, murmurs immediately rose throughout the room.
“What’s the top talent of the Sky Yang Star System doing coming to our neck of the woods?”
“Don’t know, maybe there’s some matter!”
“No wonder Guan Xinxiong and those two other old guys are willing to play follow-the-leader; turns out it’s the number one talent of the Sky Yang Star System.”
“I heard the Zhan family is pretty powerful in the Sky Yang Star System, right?”
“Don’t know, it’s too far away, who cares about that.”
“Besides those old immortals, who’s going to bother with that?”
“True, the High-level Human Race is too far from us; we should focus on the immediate benefits.”
“People shouldn’t aim too high and chase after the impossible; it could cause trouble…”
“……”
What do you think?
