The meeting has ended.
Lü Yongchang unplugged the electromagnetic adsorption device from his seat, stood silently in place, and watched the people from the Academy of Sciences leave.
As the Speaker of the Legislative Council, Hung Chi-ming is naturally no exception.
After everyone had left, Hong Qiming suddenly spoke up.
"Yongchang".
"You don't need to take these congressmen's words to heart."
“That Councilor Wan was born on Proxima Centauri b. He didn’t experience those hard times before, so it’s normal for him to have such thoughts.”
"you……"
Seeing the worry in Hong Qiming's eyes, Lü Yongchang chuckled.
"rest assured."
"I'm not that petty."
"Moreover, a complete parliament also needs the presence of these people."
Upon hearing this, the worry on Hong Qiming's face quickly disappeared.
He breathed a slight sigh of relief: "It's good that you understand this principle."
"If you hadn't produced that document, I really wouldn't know what the outcome of this meeting would have been."
"After the older generation passed away, most of the newly promoted council members had not experienced the ravages of war and harbored illusions about this universe..."
Lu Yongchang straightened his expression and said softly, "Don't worry."
“Even if the vote turns out in my favor, I will keep those Lators under control.”
"Don't forget, the Academy of Sciences has absolute dominance in this regard."
Hong Qiming was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and burst into laughter.
"That makes sense! That makes sense!!"
"It seems I was worrying too much!"
...
Earth Command Center.
In the holographic projection in front, the bright red countdown has reached its final five minutes.
Watching the numbers fluctuate, Lü Yongchang remained completely unmoved.
"Zero, are you sure you can shut down the life support systems of all enemy warships?"
To ensure the safe implementation of the extermination plan, Lü Yongchang asked again.
"System re-inspection has been completed."
"Life support systems can be shut down at any time."
Lü Yongchang nodded slightly and turned to look at the porthole next to him again.
Outside the porthole.
Hundreds of Golden Crow battleships and countless small drones formed an incredibly dense encirclement.
Within the encirclement, Lator warships of various shapes and styles drifted silently in this dark universe.
Meanwhile, the Earth slowly drifted away from the surrounding net.
Like a great white shark behind a fence, exuding a murderous aura that seeks to devour its prey!
...
Inside the No. 1 secondary flagship.
Captain Sovia, the little grey man, sat slumped in his captain's seat, his body ashen.
It stared blankly at the universe outside the porthole.
No starlight can be seen.
Yes, there are only starships with the same design.
Although there was no flash of plasma projectile light within those massive cannon muzzles, its eyes were still filled with deep fear.
"Why...why haven't these warships left yet?"
Its pale lips trembled slightly, uttering a weak yet sharp question!
There was no response.
Inside the command center, each of the little gray people looked like a defeated rooster, their bodies grayish-white, their weak limbs dangling on their seats.
The large screen in front of us was completely black.
Since the enemy gained supreme control, this warship has become an incredibly secure prison, locking them firmly inside.
Suddenly, a terrible thought flashed through its mind.
Could it be that...
In an instant, its already grayish-white skin turned completely pale!
Under the astonished and numb gazes of the other little greys, it frantically pounded on the communication buttons in front of the control panel.
Almost simultaneously, a familiar line of text appeared on the large, dark screen.
[Captain of Secondary Flagship No. 1, Soviavin, cease your provocative actions!]
Otherwise, you will pay the price!
The text, carrying a strong warning tone, flashed incessantly, stimulating its fragile nerves.
"I need to speak with your leader!" Sovia stopped pounding and screamed in an incredibly shrill voice.
There was no response.
"We have surrendered!"
"They even handed over all authority!"
"Why haven't you responded at all?!" Sovia's emotions grew increasingly agitated. "What exactly do you want?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a hint of hesitation appeared on the faces of the little gray people around him.
Clearly, these little greys were aware of the problem.
Please wait patiently; we are discussing a solution for your situation.
Without any attempt to conceal anything, Zero responded directly.
Sovia's chest heaved violently, clearly angered by such "rude" words.
It let out meaningless roars and pounded on the control panel in front of it.
However, this time, the black screen did not light up again.
...
00:01
00:00
The vibrant red countdown finally reached zero.
[Should the extinction plan be implemented?]
A line of text appeared in the holographic projection directly in front of you.
Lu Yongchang nodded expressionlessly and said in a calm tone, "Confirmed!"
[Command confirmed!]
[Closed-off work is underway...]
...
"Click! Click! Click!"
Familiar sounds came from outside the command center.
Exhausted, Sovia moved her eyes and struggled to lift her large head.
Under its astonished gaze, the open doors of the command center quickly closed and automatically locked.
