Dream World Prelude:
"Indeed, I did not do my best, which led to the sacrifice of many of my compatriots. In the dead of night, sitting by the window, I look out and see familiar faces. I instinctively want to reach out and touch them, but they all drift further and further away from me until they all disappear. I often feel self-blame and pain, a feeling that torments me and keeps me awake at night. Here, I would like to express my apologies to the families of all the Federation personnel who sacrificed their lives in the war. The sins I bear can never be repaid, and I feel that I cannot continue living. Therefore, I intend to resign from all my posts and stay quietly for a while, to comfort their souls in heaven at the Arctic Ocean Park Cemetery. I ask for your consent. The war against the invasion was won, but my survival makes me feel nauseous. The crimes that have been committed against me, I will recount them one by one..."
A video went viral and made headlines on major news websites.
In just three days, it garnered over 10 billion views, with countless people watching it repeatedly.
The popularity has remained high for a long time.
The protagonist of this video is a handsome young man, about the same age as many college freshmen. He has a calm expression, but the bloodshot eyes and dark circles caused by not sleeping for many days make him look very haggard.
Why does a young person have such a high level of popularity? And on what basis does he make such outrageous claims that he has committed a "serious crime"?
Because, a month ago, as the deputy commander of the anti-invasion war, he manipulated the Federation's massive war machine at the Arctic Command Center to hunt down and kill the invading creatures. From that day on, the Death Dimension began to disintegrate, human satellite signals were restored, and the gray fog that had obscured our vision was dispelled.
People's lives returned to normal, the oppressive atmosphere was dispelled, and the survivors in the Federation returned to their hometowns and were awarded a silver-glowing mech medal to represent their service in the Federation.
His name is "Jiang Cheng".
He is the youngest president of the China Energy Technology Institute and the youngest president of the China Medical Technology Institute. He is given the title of "Guardian" by major countries and holds a position second only to the emperor. He also serves as the chief engineer for the global mecha joint research and development.
At the age of 20, he became a god in the eyes of countless people.
Then where does the talk of "sin" come from?
War always brings sacrifices, and the sacrifices in this federal joint anti-invasion effort were even more devastating. Post-war data showed that nearly half of the elite personnel from various countries who had been transferred there were killed or wounded. The then-commander-in-chief, Tali, held a high-ranking position among the major powers, and he too became a ghost in this dimension.
Of all those who entered the dimension of death to wage a second war, only two survived: Jiang Cheng and Gu Qingwan.
The remaining people left not even ashes.
What exactly happened in the dimension of death that day remains unknown, and the major powers no longer wish to explore this secret. All they want is victory, and this is already a satisfactory outcome for them.
How many people died is not important. Although it may sound cold-blooded, what human civilization has in abundance is people. We can just train more, it just costs more money.
This is a drop in the ocean compared to the costs of war.
Jiangcheng released this video to express his apology and announce the victory in the anti-invasion war, thereby dissolving the Federation.
Jiang Cheng's desire to resign is just a pretext. At this point, he can no longer simply walk away; resignation is merely a formality.
Within days, the number of replies to this news exploded. The comments were unanimously against Jiang Cheng's resignation, and instead, they wanted him to take on a higher position and continue to contribute to "national defense," which could no longer be called national defense, but rather to the defense of the Earth.
That year, before he even graduated from university, he had already reached the pinnacle of human achievement in civilization.
But Jiang Cheng knew that he had a more important responsibility on his shoulders.
At the same time, he also possessed a secret that no one else knew about in the development of human civilization to this point.
Outside, the city was abuzz with news of the war victory, which crashed major websites as everyone was discussing it.
Zhao Xuerou, Ke Bing, You Lixuan, who participated in the anti-invasion war... were immediately placed under heavy guard upon returning to their hometown. Their parents, in particular, were not allowed to speak out without any official notification. The entire Federation attempted to disappear without a trace, pretending that they had never existed.
Meanwhile, Jiangcheng was secretly plotting a super plan.
At the heart of the plan, there was only him...

"Boss, you're trying to suppress the highest level of authority over commands. Do you know what that means?"
In the super-hidden underground laboratory, in an empty room, there was only Jiang Cheng.
There was a silver roulette wheel in front of him, and the lights above his head were not turned on, so the entire underground laboratory was dark.
The surrounding area displays various mechanical outlines, including a sophisticated robotic arm tens of meters long, an unactivated controlled nuclear fusion device, a brain-like organism being cultivated, and diagrams of new types of firearms.
However, they were all hidden in the shadows, creating a somewhat eerie atmosphere.
More than a dozen binding bracelets sprouted from the roulette wheel, fastening around a woman. These ring-shaped, silver, magnetic devices bound her hands, feet, and waist.
It looks like a high-tech alloy used to control criminals, but it's actually more sophisticated. This thing can block all external signals emitted by women.
Jiang Cheng sat in a very comfortable chair, a friendly smile on his face, quietly watching Gu Qingwan who was tied up.
Her body was practically naked, with only her vital parts covered, revealing her fair skin and a perfectly toned abdomen without an ounce of fat. Her hair was loose, and her face was slightly lowered, lacking its usual composure, instead flushed slightly, showing a mixture of shyness and annoyance.
