Chapter 771 Following this bitter journey, we will reach the stars

"Shouldn't we do something to stop it?"

Inside the space station, the star field governor Sarans looked at the speeches and videos that kept repeating on the screen.

"What to do, shoot down all those shuttles?" The assistant officer at the side said helplessly.

"They are still citizens of the Federation. If you directly order to open fire and kill these people, the 'Fire Lotus-Brilliant Star' faction may not say anything, but you probably won't be able to succeed in the future, and your future political career will be ruined."

"I mean, why not shoot down the home starship docked outside the starport." The star field governor thought about the possibility.

"I advise you not to do this."

"First of all, their fleet is quite strong. If you want to shoot them down, you may have to mobilize the combat power of the patrol fleet, but if you follow the process, it will definitely take a long time. If the commanders of the patrol fleet are willing, they can directly order the action, then you don't have to wade into this muddy water."

"Secondly, you are the governor of the star field. Our power comes from public opinion and votes. If you forcibly cut off the hopes of these people at this juncture, they are already in a bad situation. It would be fine if they were used to it on weekdays, but now they clearly see hope, but you block it. What do you think will happen next?"

"They will hate you for the rest of their lives, and this hatred will be very strong. There will still be a lot of people who resonate with it and it is organized. I think they will not be at peace for decades to come."

"In addition, don't you think it's a good thing to have fewer people at the bottom who are unhappy with their lives and difficult to appease? The society will be stable, and everyone will get what they want. Those who stay must be people with stable property and perseverance, and it will be much easier to manage in the future."

"Finally, if you are afraid of being held accountable by the 'Fire Lotus-Brilliant Star' faction, then follow the official process, send an inquiry instruction, and then report the situation to the patrol fleet. You are the governor of the star region, an official in charge of internal affairs. This kind of unreasonable matter is not within your scope of responsibility."

After hearing this, the governor of the star region, Sarans, finally sat down, but he still felt something was wrong.

"Are we just going to stand by and watch? This should be a violation of the federal constitution. It would be bad if we act too passively."

"No, acting badly at this time is the best choice." The staff member next to him suggested again.

"You also know who is shouting outside now, that's Luo Fenghua, the most famous singer in the Eastern Star Region."

"You are also aware of the situation in the Eastern Star Region. There is a fierce struggle among the top leaders. Even if you are the governor of the star region, if you participate in such a struggle, not only will you not gain any benefits, but you will also provoke strong hatred from one side."

"It is true that the 'Fire Lotus-Brilliant Star' faction currently has the upper hand in the Eastern Star Region, but the situation among the people is not the same. The Three Songstresses Alliance has been operating in the Eastern Star Region for many years. They are all familiar local singers, and everyone is instinctively friendly to them. If you really offend them, that would not be a good thing. Even if they leave in the future, if their supporters don't follow them, there will be trouble in the future."

"So, the best way right now is to let them go. It's better for everyone if they leave."

"Lord Pulin wants the territory of the Eastern Star Region, Luo Fenghua wants a new country belonging to the Orientals, the unhappy and unstable people want a new start, and the people who currently have a happy life want a more stable environment. Why do you have to stop this from happening?" The staff had to explain the situation and circumstances to the governor again.

After hearing all this, Governor Sarans poured himself a small glass of wine and drank it slowly.

"So, watching the show here is the best choice? I feel like you are a follower of the 'Deep Sea Alliance'."

"How is that possible? I have known you for more than ten years." The staff on the side had to straighten their posture, stop talking loudly, and become humble and respectful.

"Humph, it's good that you know." Sarans drank the wine slowly.

"Forget it, I'll listen to you this time. I'm going to sleep for a while. But to the outside world, you can tell that the governor is urgently discussing countermeasures."

"Maybe we should do something now to satisfy everyone's anxiety."

"Then say it's too late and it's too late."

"Understood, understood." The assistant officer nodded repeatedly, and then escorted the governor out of the office.

A few minutes later, he returned to the office again, looking at the dots that kept falling on the screen, with a complicated expression.

"Are you leaving..." The subtle voice echoed softly in this quiet room with a sigh.

On the street, a number of hovercrafts shuttled randomly and swarmed, and from time to time, the self-discipline units responsible for warnings arrived to adjust the routes and maintain order.

"Please obey the traffic rules, don't shuttle or break through the warning fence at will." The mechanically synthesized voice sounded from the small body, but unfortunately the surroundings were still chaotic and no one cared at all.

"It's already this time, who still cares about traffic rules? I'm not a federal citizen anymore, so you can't arrest me." Someone complained nonchalantly, and then increased the speed to the maximum.

In the trunk of his hovercraft, he put his packed luggage, including his treasured photos, diaries, gifts from his parents in the past, beloved collections, etc. These things were what he would take with him even if he left the federation, and other than that, he had nothing else.

The so-called relatives have all left the world. He has no worries. Life has not brought him much joy, only many separations and sadness. Now there is a brand new opportunity in front of him, as if it is fate that tells him to make this choice.

"Just at this time, just at this stage, I have no worries, and no other choice." He muttered in his mouth, firming his belief, and then drove the hovercraft faster and faster, like a moth that flies towards the light regardless of everything.

There are many people like him, perhaps not to such a serious degree, and not as determined as him, but those who choose to go to the pick-up point are all people who change their old lives. They no longer miss this land, but only want to go to a distant foreign land to start a new future, even if there are great risks and dangers.

In the empty wilderness, a gray-blue shuttle slowly descended with violent airflow, and then the closed belly gate opened, revealing the spacious space inside.

This is the pick-up point for the 'Deep Sea Union' faction. The deep blue wave mark is projected on the ground, and then a white beam of light rises into the sky, like a beacon, guiding those who make the choice.

In the following days, countless federal residents came here. Some of them were nervous, some were anxious, and some were uneasy. They registered here, put on new identity chips, and then walked into the gray-blue belly.

Five days later, the last shuttle took off and took away the personnel at this location. On the periphery of the inhabited planet, the huge home starship had gathered nearly a million people.

Such a magnificent starship took away billions of people during the time when the Fifth Fleet broke into the border area for a decisive battle, and they also left this area before the Fifth Fleet returned.

...

In the home starship dotted with mountains and lakes, Luo Fenghua stood by the fence and looked up. In the starry sea outside the sky, one home starship after another was slowly moving forward like a flying bird with its wings spread. The wind blew her hair and dress, turning them into flowing ribbons dancing.

Facing this scene, she slowly closed her eyes, and countless memories and nostalgia turned into a sigh.

"Over the years, the world will be changed."

Half a month later, many home starships were arranged in an array that blocked the light of the stars. The light sails were like clouds, and they slowly advanced like giant whales, gradually stretching their shadows and entering the distant deep sea.

Their destination is the Andromeda Galaxy 2.45 million light-years away. It is a galaxy that is more magnificent and huge than the Milky Way, and it is also the end of this long journey.

'We will wake up hundreds of years later, and then everything in the past will no longer exist. '

'You will be a brand new person, and we will also establish our country in that distant place. '
