Chapter 78 p3
Ten minutes passed quickly. The people from Country A had probably been briefed in advance, so not a single one chose to withdraw. On the Hua nation side, only a few people were hesitant. Ren Yi went forward and had a separate chat with them. “We will absolutely not force you. It’s up to your personal wishes. Withdrawing is not a bad thing.”
Perhaps because the psychic power had already screened them once, most of these people were of high moral character, decisive, and extremely courageous. These few were only hesitating because they were a little worried about their families. After he chatted with them for a bit, they all chose to stay in the end.
Next, it was Xia Anran’s turn to use the pre-prepared items to help them awaken their psychic power.
After these several thousand people had lined up and awakened one by one, she casually picked two people and shook their hands. Sure enough, the system prompted that her mission was complete.
After awakening, these people still needed some time to rest. Ren Yi and the others took them to the pre-prepared lodgings, just waiting to see how the awakening situation would be the next morning.
Xia Anran impatiently poked the system. “Quick, quick! What’s the reward!”
[What’s the rush? Wait a minute. There are some procedures to go through.]
She waited anxiously for about half an hour before the system finally arrived.
[Congratulations on completing the hidden mission! Reward: Interstellar Channel Opened!]
“?”
“What’s an Interstellar Channel?” she asked, tilting her head. Could they use this channel to directly attack the Yaxun star’s home base? It seemed a little useful, but also not very useful.
As she was thinking this, she also said it out loud. The system was so angry at her disdainful tone that it jumped up and down.
[What are you talking about! This Interstellar Channel connects you and the future interstellar era!]
[This system connects you two! What Yaxun star? I don’t even know them!]
Connects them and the future interstellar era?!
She sucked in a sharp breath. Wait, this seemed to be really useful. “Are there any restrictions on this channel?” she asked. “Can it transport living things? How much can it transport? Is there a time limit?”
[This is a hidden reward. There are no restrictions. You can go over, or they can come over.]
She was stunned for a moment, then was ecstatic. Wasn’t this just giving them a cheat code?! If the United Star System, the Interstellar Empire, and the Beastman race directly sent people over to support them, how could they possibly not win this war! The Yaxun star was just a small fry in front of them. She had thought they were in a desperate situation, but it had been broken so easily.
This mix of great joy and sorrow made her heart beat rapidly. After catching her breath, she said, “For such a good reward, was this mission really completed so easily?” It wasn’t like this stingy system’s style.
[What do you mean, easy?! If it weren’t for the detector, could you have completed the mission so quickly?]
…That was true. Without the detector, it would have taken her forever to find them all over the world.
[That small detector cost five million! If I hadn’t given you a loan, you wouldn’t have even saved up half of it by now!]
[And you’re still saying it was easy! Hmph!]
She scratched her head. For the first time, she felt that what the system said made some sense. If it weren’t for a series of coincidences, she really wouldn’t have been able to complete the mission so easily. The difficulty of this mission was actually not low.
“Alright, alright! I have to tell the Chief this news immediately!”
She flew out like a happy little bird.
Sure enough, when the top leader heard this news, his joy was also overflowing. It was the first time she had seen him so excited. He said “good” several times and paced back and forth in his office.
“Little Xia, we’ll have to trouble you to contact the interstellar side. We may need to have a short meeting,” he said, suppressing his joy after calming down. “We also need to hurry up and come up with a plan. Discuss it with them and see if an hour from now is convenient.”
He muttered to himself for a while and then called the other leaders one by one, telling them to come over quickly. She also received her mission and sent a message to Ye Yuxing.
Ye Yuxing, who received her message, read the few short lines over and over again, afraid that he was seeing things or dreaming. Earth and their interstellar era could be connected? Was it… that magical?
After he reported it, as he had expected, the leaders were also in an uproar. The Beastman race, in particular, nearly jumped up when they received the news. They were going to Earth! They were going now! They couldn’t stand it for another second!
“What are you still waiting for? Hurry up and tell Host Anran that we can go directly to Earth to help them! No matter how many people or weapons they need, our Beastman race will cover it all!”
Jeqi’s eyes were shining with excitement. “Our strongest troops can all be sent to Earth to fight! Xuan Mo is already prepared!”
Having heard about this, he had even specially brought Xuan Mo with him this time. Xuan Mo, on the side, nodded with an expression of certain victory. Fighting on Earth… just thinking about it made him eager to try.
“The same goes for our Interstellar Empire. The army is already ready and can go to Earth at any time,” Phileas also immediately stated.
The Consul General raised his hand. “Everyone, please don’t be anxious. Host Anran has arranged for us to communicate first. The video conference will begin shortly.”
Hearing this, Jeqi calmed down a little. Then let’s see what Host Anran arranges.
Qin Feng had also been urgently recalled to the main planet this time. If the United Star System were to send troops, he would definitely be the commander.
Xuan Mo and Qin Feng were sitting together. Xuan Mo turned to him and said, “Well? Are you looking forward to fighting on Earth?”
Qin Feng’s face was impassive. “That is our mother planet. It is only natural to fight for our mother planet. I advise you not to meddle in our family affairs.”
“Hey, you…”
The Hua nation side was also quickly prepared. The moment Xia Anran’s video invitation came over, the interstellar side immediately connected.
Due to the urgency, the top leader hadn’t had time to inform the other countries of the world. They had just simply decided on the content of the discussion within the Hua nation and had rushed to have a meeting with the interstellar side.
The meeting went much more smoothly than she had imagined. Without them having to ask, the interstellar side had already proactively offered to send people and weapons, guaranteeing there would be no problem. The Beastman race, in particular, was sharpening their knives, wishing they could just launch a missile at the Yaxun star right now.
The top leader first sincerely thanked them for their help and then proposed the request that they attached the most importance to in this meeting. “We hope that the interstellar side can provide some areas for the citizens of Earth to take refuge in.”
Once a war started, there would always be innocent civilian casualties. The best way was to evacuate the citizens in advance. And given the special nature of this war, the leaders had decided to let the ordinary soldiers also go to the interstellar era, leaving only the psychics and the reinforcements from space.
This was not a simple matter. The entire Earth had a population of over eight billion. Just thinking about evacuating all of them showed how difficult it would be. And for the interstellar era, receiving so many ordinary people from Earth would probably also be very troublesome.
Unexpectedly, the first to respond was Phileas. “No problem. The Interstellar Empire has a planet that is about the same size as Earth. Due to some special reasons, it is uninhabited. But please rest assured, the infrastructure and living environment on this planet are all fine. We welcome our friends from Earth to be our guests at any time!”
In the interstellar era, a planet that could accommodate eight billion people, was suitable for human life, and was easy to clean up was probably only this one in the Interstellar Empire. Speaking of which, this planet was his private property. It had been brought over from his mother’s family and had later been left to him. He had originally planned to retire on this planet, so he had been actively developing its infrastructure. The environment was very good.
After listening, the leaders expressed their gratitude to the Interstellar Empire. The United Star System and the Beastman race also stated that they would actively assist the people of Earth in their relocation to the interstellar era and would definitely take good care of them.
In the final period of time, the leaders discussed how to evacuate the people of Earth in batches and at different times. The current plan was to complete this matter within three days. In between, the troops from the interstellar era would also come to Earth through the interstellar channel.
After the general process of the meeting was finalized, Jeqi still couldn’t help but lean forward and say, “I have one more request. Can you also bring the animals?”
Phileas also came over. “When our friends from Earth come, they can also bring more of Earth’s specialty products!”
The top leader agreed to each one. Only then did they reluctantly say goodbye. In the end, Jeqi even clung to the camera and shouted for them to bring more food over. This time, let alone food, they could even bring the chefs over, she thought.
After hanging up the video, she and Ren Yi looked at each other and said weakly, “Chief, you’re not really planning to bring the animals over too, are you?”
The number of animals on Earth was probably even greater than the number of people. And they were not easy to communicate with. How were they going to bring them over?
“Since we’ve promised, we must do it,” the top leader said with a smile. “Don’t worry. We wouldn’t have agreed so easily if we weren’t certain.”
She thought for a moment and had a sudden realization. There were still the Qilin and the other Spirit Beasts who could communicate with the small animals. They could totally ask them for help!
“Alright. The next and most important thing is to evacuate the public. All troops will be responsible for maintaining order in various places. The soldiers and government staff will leave after the final inventory is complete.”
The top leader looked at her. “Little Xia, you just said that this interstellar channel can be carried with you and opened at any time, right?”
“Yes, Chief,” she nodded. “The system said that this channel is, in a sense, bound to me personally. I need to open and close it, but of course, I can do it anytime, anywhere.”
“In that case, it would be best to gather the public in a large area to make it convenient for you to set up the channel,” the second-in-command said after some thought. “And we also have to notify the other countries about this. This is no small matter. Not all countries will necessarily believe us.”
“Do your best and leave the rest to fate. We’ve already tried our best,” the top leader sighed.
“The military parade will end tomorrow morning. I will announce all the government’s arrangements. The people of the whole country should try to move towards the center and will be divided into four large regions. The evacuation will begin at eight in the evening, starting from the north.”
