Chapter 88 Extra Chapter Ends - Since Ancient Times, Daze (or Daze)

Lu Qian recalled the many funny videos she had watched on the cloud platform. Well... it just goes to show that people can do anything when they have free time.

"Alright, alright, I won't say anymore. Let's talk about something else... Actually, the strength Mother showed a few days ago was a bit ridiculously strong. When the aliens invaded just now, I thought we were doomed," Liu Xiao said with a smile, as if remembering something. "I sat up in shock on my deathbed and realized that the great powers were actually myself."

"They thought we were easy targets, but they ran into a brick wall. It's hilarious."

Lu Qian nodded, then, following Liu Xiao's lead, considered the matter from a different perspective: "Thinking about it this way, Mother was truly too good to humanity. She could have simply and forcefully merged numerous countries, yet she didn't intervene for so many years..."

“After all, both the old and new Qin people are Qin people. I feel that Mother probably thinks it’s possible but unnecessary, and is just waiting for this opportunity to use her power to threaten the other side. That way, wouldn’t that be…” Liu Xiao didn’t finish speaking when her personal screen beeped, reminding her to check the message.

Lu Qian's screen also rang at the same time. Not only them, but everyone on the street's screen received an important message notification.

The street was silent for two seconds before erupting into deafening cheers.

They have waited for this day for hundreds of years, for the day when open warfare disappeared from this beautiful planet, for the day when peace became a global consensus, and today they have finally received the good news of reunification.

Many Qin people immediately felt that the aliens' deaths were well worth it, and people were even eager to take on the job of cleaning up space debris that had been assigned to them.

****

On April 12, 1111 of the Qin calendar, this planet was renamed Qin Star. The entire planet was unified, and all national-level regional names other than China were eliminated. Provincial, municipal and county institutions were retained, and government staff were disbanded and reorganized.

A month later, the handover was fully completed, and the motherland reappeared before the public, delivering a special speech for this reunification.

Some reporters also asked why the order wasn't given earlier, since even if the national spirits didn't do it, humanity could have done it themselves.

In response, she said, "For the sake of my heart, I would rather you stay at home doing nothing and be safe than go to the battlefield."

A question arises: Motherland is not a person, so does she have a heart?

This issue has caused another uproar on the cloud computing community.

Some people believe there are certain things, while others disagree, and still others are simply moved by how much their motherland loves them.

She said that the predecessors fought wars so that we could live better lives, not so that we could go to the battlefield and die. She urged us not to start wars so easily, and encouraged us to just cry.

To be honest, I think my mother's next words would have been, "Use your brain, don't start wars so easily. Even when you do go to war, you should maximize your own interests."

[Haha, I think so too. That helpless look in his eyes back then was a bit like looking at an impulsive child.]

[It's not that I don't want to, it's just not worth it, lol]

Indeed, war is not something netizens can just casually wage. We must have a sense of awe towards war. We've had peace for so long, and honestly, I don't want war to break out. Peaceful reunification like this is the best outcome. I'm grateful to our alien friends for sending us this "firework," otherwise I can't even imagine Qin Xing turning into a complete mess.

[That can't be, right? Isn't our motherland very strong? She could easily crush them.]

[The person above clearly doesn't read international news. The day Mother Earth defeated the aliens, people abroad were also glowing. What does this prove? It proves that Mother Earth also treats them like her own children. How could she harm her other children? So, we should still thank our alien friends; without them, we don't know when we would have achieved unification.]

[Hilarious! So you're thanking them for their remaining contributions, huh?]

[To the person above, I hope the residual heat you mentioned really is residual heat, lol emoji]

[It's obvious he's talking about aliens turning to ashes; a two-thousand-gun salute—good-sounding cannons are good cannons!]

****

About a year later, an alien who wished to remain anonymous arrived at the edge of the solar system again, this time with only three warships.

One ordinary spaceship and three warships will serve as escorts. Only the ordinary spaceship will actually enter the solar system, while the warships will remain outside the solar system.

Kos came here to atone for his crimes, and with all his men gone, he's now a commander without any troops. The escort ship was sent from the Imperial Capital Star; it's supposed to be for protection, but it's really just for surveillance.

He remembered that he had submitted an application before entering the solar system, and he contacted the government that had rejected him before, using the channel he remembered.

****

Zhu Qing'ai didn't leave for the time being. Since there was nothing else to do on the other side, she stayed here for a few more days.

Now she's a formally employed member of the government, and as a mascot, she can just spend her days in the office watching dramas, reading novels, eating and drinking.

Although the food and drinks were fake, the dramas and novels I watched and read were real.

After that, she completely gave up. She's over 1,500 years old, and it's one thing for her not to retire but to be nominally employed here. Surely no one actually wants her to work hard!

That's incredibly unfilial!

For the next year, no one contacted her. However, her vacation was coming to an end, and she thought that after Kos brought his people to the diplomatic corps, she would leave, leaving her clone here to quietly slack off, occasionally sending her some energy and web dramas and novels.

When Kos submitted his entry application, someone knocked on her office door to ask for instructions. Zhu Qing'ai waved her hand dismissively, her eyes still glued to the screen: "You can decide this yourself. Call me only if you need to kill someone to cover it up."

The staff member who came to ask for instructions: ? ! !

"Okay, Mother, you're busy." She walked out backwards, closing the office door behind her.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing'ai paused in her work. She was indeed busy, but not with work; she was busy watching satirical videos...

She felt inexplicably guilty, what was wrong with her... But she quickly dismissed the feeling. She had worked so hard for so many years, what was wrong with taking a break?

Justified and confident jpg

****

Kos waited a day and finally received the approval to enter the country. He immediately ordered the escort warships behind him to wait there, while he himself, accompanied only by a few diplomats, boarded the ordinary spaceship and arrived in Qin Star.

Guided by the local ships, the Rookians' spaceship found its docking port. As Kos stepped off the ship, he was immediately greeted by the warmth of the local people and became one of the aliens to receive a 'welcome' from the crowd.

However, this enthusiasm only refers to rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs; these days, it's really not easy to find such things.

The diplomats accompanying him were also hit by the object. Fortunately, the government staff who came to pick him up were quite clever; instead of coming themselves, they sent the robot that they operated.

The robot guards won't arrest people without orders; they're just perfunctorily blocking the people on both sides to prevent them from impulsively killing someone.

After Kos died, it was quite troublesome for his soul to drift back to Luke and come back again.

There were also people on both sides protesting with banners. The Luke aliens couldn't understand what was written on the banners, but the universal translator in Kos's ear faithfully translated it for him: [Reject the human traffickers' diplomatic request!]

That's the mildest version; the radicals have already started hurling insults: "[This is the kid who threatened us back then, right? How come he's still alive and well, not turned to ashes?]"

[They were probably kept alive for interrogation, right? The interrogators were incompetent; how come they didn't accidentally kill someone during interrogation?]

Koss: ? ? ?

What does "accidentally" or "by mistake" mean? Is it possible to be that careless or make such a mistake?

This was probably an accidental mishap!

Kos, who had heard on the spaceship that the planet had been renamed Qin Star, shuddered. It was terrifying. They were just interstellar human traffickers, but these Qin Star people were truly deranged killers.

More than ten million have died, isn't that enough? Just thinking about it makes his heart ache, his men, his army...

But he dared not show it. Ever since his near-death experience, he had learned to keep a low profile in front of Qin Xing.

[If I accidentally make this now...]

Shut up, bro! This isn't something you can just say casually. All weapons of mass destruction are strictly prohibited!

While Kos was still wondering what flying fish were and what excrement was, someone threw a large bag at him.

The stench filled the air instantly, and even the crowds who had lined both sides to welcome them retreated. Some people cursed, "Damn it, who threw this poison gas? Trying to take everyone down with them?"

"It stinks! I give up!"

The machine guide dared not delay any longer and quickly dragged the people onto the hovercar, fearing that if they stayed any longer, what would be thrown over would not be canned herring, but dung.

****

Kos was so overwhelmed by the stench that he vomited violently and almost fainted.

He could think of abducting the people here not only because their genes were unpolluted and they didn't suffer from various cosmic genetic diseases, but also because they were similar to the Luke aliens, and he was sure he could sell them for a good price.

So the stench attacks from those people were also effective against him; he was now vomiting uncontrollably because of the smell on his own body.

Once he arrived at his destination and was finally cleaned up, he negotiated with people with a sour expression.

It was, of course, a diplomatic act, and also an apology.

Then they saw the classified high-tech equipment that was still in the experimental stage on the other side.

Koss: ?

The Qin Xing side's diplomats remained calm. This was something their motherland had given them casually before. No matter where it came from, once they had it in their hands, it was theirs.

Kos gave a strained laugh, then suddenly remembered how, when he had finally escaped back to his planet, some of his colleagues were unwilling to give up and said they wanted to invade the place, and then they died on the spot.

They didn't even see a single sign; their bodies were riddled with bloody holes, their souls were crushed before everyone's eyes, and they died so completely that they didn't even have the chance to be resurrected using a spare body.

He was terrified, and his colleague, disbelieving and defiant, made provocative remarks, resulting in another death.

The more Kos looked at the small cubes displayed on the other side, the more familiar they seemed. Wasn't this the technology of the Luke aliens?

But he didn't even dare to raise his voice, and could only give an awkward laugh, taking the initiative to introduce the major forces in the universe to the person opposite him, while stalling for time and hinting to the people behind him to bring some new gifts.

This time, Kos finally saw that the person opposite him was taking notes of what he said. He didn't intend to say anything wrong on purpose; he valued his life quite a bit.

After finally getting through the ordeal, they sent another apology gift, only to hear the other person casually inform them: "The Milky Way has always been Qin territory, so we won't hold it against you for entering the country so casually this time."

Koss looked puzzled, but still awkwardly agreed with a smile; there was nothing he could do about the situation.

Zhu Qing'ai was relieved when she saw the final result. She left her clone there to keep an eye on things while she strolled back to her original world.

Author's Note: Zhu Qing'ai: When poor, put things aside for now; when successful, follow the old ways. Good!
