Chapter 149 The Current State of Human Government
After the Fenghua Sword was forged, Chu Yi and others waited in the Chongxu Sect for a few days, and then it was time for the Joint Conference of Cosmic Civilizations to officially begin.
According to intelligence from the country, the spacecraft of the three major civilizations in the universe have already arrived at their destination planets and are collectively parked in the universe, waiting for a response from the galactic civilization.
Originally they would not have arrived so quickly. The distance between civilizations is not enough to be measured in light years. For example, if Kil'jaeden's people wanted to rush from their home planet to the home planet of the Quessar Alliance, it would take more than two years.
This is the speed that can only be achieved by making space jumps from time to time along the way. If you choose to reduce the number of space jumps for safety reasons, it will take even longer.
There is nothing that can be done about this; the universe is simply too vast.
Planets that appear very close are actually hundreds of light years apart. It takes several days for an ordinary civilian spacecraft to travel between two planets, not to mention traveling from one civilization to another at the other end of the universe.
Fortunately, the galactic civilization does not want to waste time on meaningless waiting. They need to deal with alliance matters as soon as possible, clarify their rights and prove their status.
In order to achieve the goal, the Galactic Civilization can only find a way to shorten the journey time as much as possible.
The solution they came up with was to let the flower-planting dragon, who acted as a messenger, deliver a physical invitation letter, which came with a teleportation array made by a saint. When the agreed time comes and they open the invitation letter, a space channel will appear directly, and the other side of the channel is the planet where they will have their meeting.
Thanks to the saint's help, otherwise this plan would not have been realized.
Building a space channel that is stable enough to accommodate space battleships and spans a distance of unknown light years is not just talk. Even in the galactic civilization, only saints and gods have such power, and none of the gods below can do it.
Even Saint Xihe’s husband, the quasi-saint Demon Emperor Jun, is no match for him.
After changing into the uniforms that Gu Jiayan had specially prepared for the disciples of the Chongxu Sect, Chu Yi and his party stood majestically behind Long Jun, preparing to set off from the world of cultivation to the conference planet.
In this meeting, the people from the galactic civilization who attended included representatives of various races and only a few representatives of human national governments.
After nearly a hundred years of development and changes, there are only seven human countries left on the blue planet, namely: Flower Country, M Country, Y Country, Yara, F Country, Lusa, and Saint Joris. Apart from these, other countries have been incorporated into the surrounding major powers and become part of them.
Yes, the country of Fuso no longer exists, and now the only thing that exists on the blue planet is the flower-growing Fuso Island.
After all, Fuso is just a small island country, and it is the only country in the surrounding sea area of hundreds of miles. As the number of residents on the island increased and the land could no longer meet their basic living needs, they had to rely on imports for many of their daily necessities.
In addition, monsters were rampant later, and their royal family was never able to completely loosen their control over Onmyoji, resulting in heavy casualties among the lower-class civilians. In the later period, countless cities were deserted, causing the country's economy to collapse completely.
It's not that Fuso hadn't thought about saving itself, but by the time their royal family was willing to put aside their pride and allow more civilians to come into contact with Onmyoji, things had already reached a point where they couldn't recover. The whole country seems to have returned to the period before modern reforms, with deserted cities, backward technology, and a miserable life.
There is no hope for such a country to continue.
Originally, Fuso followed the lead of Country M, but from a geographical point of view, Country M's distant water could not quench their immediate thirst. If they wanted to preserve their remaining citizens, they had no choice but to submit to the flower-growing country next door. Moreover, they are better at growing flowers than the United States. If you submit to them, you can get more benefits.
So in the end, Fuso Kingdom became history on the blue planet. From now on, what will be recorded is Fuso Island, the country of flowers.
Among the remaining seven human countries, only four countries have the right to speak and can send representatives to participate in this joint conference of cosmic civilizations.
The four countries are: Flower Country, Country Y, Yara, and Saint Joris.
Needless to say, they are the undisputed leader of the Blue Planet since the beginning of the world revolution, and it is thanks to them that the galactic civilization stands out in the eyes of the entire universe. Country Y is another country with the most complete heritage of human cultivation civilization. The government is generous in sharing all kinds of knowledge. With the help of ancient survivors, their national strength is naturally becoming stronger and stronger.
Only Yara and Saint Joris are emerging as the new forces.
Yala was once extremely backward. Whether it was economy, people's livelihood, science and technology, military or overall national strength, it was much weaker than other countries. It was a veritable backward country. Even if the world is reshuffled, they will not be the first to rise, and they are not even as good as Fuso.
But they have a star goddess.
Even if she is not a main god, she is a second-level god second only to the main god. What is even more rare is that the Star Goddess's stance is biased towards humans. The main source of her faith was the people of Yara. Under the leadership of the star priestess Sharin Garfield, the weak goddess fully recovered her power in just over 50 years.
Believers and gods benefit from each other, so the Kingdom of Yara and the Goddess Theria naturally have a place.
As for Saint Joris, its story is even more miraculous.
It was originally a religious country, and strictly speaking, it cannot even be considered a country. Because it has no political system, there are only bright churches all over the country, and church priests and bishops who preside over various affairs.
The land area of Saint Joris is very small, and it ranks among the last few in the world's country land area rankings. Just like Fuso, the country's land area directly limits its development.
If it weren't for the countless devout believers who make pilgrimages every year and collect donations for the various churches in St. Joris, they would have disintegrated long ago.
It was a son of the Central Temple who helped Saint Joris escape the crisis of disintegration and successfully rise.
The Holy Son's name is Gal Elvis, a pure Saint Joris, and his family has been multiplying in this country. Gal has been a devout believer since he was a child. When other children were still unable to understand the meaning of faith, he was already able to listen to a whole day of teachings in the church.
The bishops in the church all knew this strange child, and although they were surprised at his differences, they did not express any objection. Even in the selection of the Son of God, which was held every five years, everyone collectively recommended Gala.
After going through rigorous selection, Caleb Elvis became a glorious Son of Light.
Originally, his life should have been like that of every previous Son of God. He would serve as the Son of God for five years, and after the next Son of God was elected, he would abdicate and become the high priest of a temple. Then continue to spread God’s gospel among the world, so that more people can understand the greatness of the God of Light.
But suddenly, the mystery was revived, and the legendary god appeared from the clouds in front of everyone. Human beings also have the opportunity to practice and touch the ideal of immortality.
Caleb Elvis is the luckiest man in Saint Joris.
In the early days of the mysterious revival, when others were still groping in the dark, he had already received gifts from the gods and instantly understood a lot of cultivation knowledge. Coupled with his full affinity for the element of light, after he began his true practice, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the Son of God's progress was rapid.
But he is definitely not as good as the flower-growing monk Chu Yi, whose talent even makes the ancient powerful people marvel.
Today, the galactic civilization has developed to level 4, becoming a veritable intermediate civilization. Saint Yolis, under the leadership of the former Son of God and now the God of Light, Gal Elvis, has become a super power that can influence the situation on Blue Planet.
No one will ignore the voices they make.
These four leaders represent the human forces on Blue Planet. Apart from them, other countries are no longer qualified to participate in the United Conference of Cosmic Civilizations.
As for the countries M, F and Lusa, which once shared the world equally, they are now on the decline and can only barely maintain the stability of their own regimes.
Chu Yi once met the mermaid actor Johnston Taylor and Brian Wilson, the financial tycoon of the same clan as the president, in Country M, and then made deals with the two of them. One awakened his mermaid bloodline and became the current Sea God, and the other obtained technology that was ahead of its time, allowing his family and country to begin to develop rapidly.
Unfortunately, after the aliens awaken, they will no longer recognize their human identity, and the same is true for Johnston. Especially after he inherited the godhood of Atlantis and Poseidon, he would not associate himself with his former country.
Apart from the Poseidon, there is nothing praiseworthy about Country M. They are a country that was established in modern times, with no history at all, and naturally no cultivation culture.
But at least they still have high technology, and with the technical support provided by Chu Yi, the development of mecha in Country M is quite good. The situation of country F next door is much worse. The current situation of this country perfectly fits the idiom of "gardening flowers" - lingering on.
Originally they had their own cultural heritage, and if they had developed it well, it would never have turned out like this.
Country F is considered the birthplace of exorcists. Although exorcists are not as powerful as magicians, they are extremely good at exorcising curses, evil spirits, vampires, etc. Although there is no God of Exorcists in the world, they believe in the God of Light and can be considered a branch of the Light Camp system, so they also have the opportunity to improve their cultivation to a higher level.
The mistake is that vampires were born in Country F.
Of course, this does not mean to blame Chu Yi. She does not need to be responsible for this. No matter which country you choose, it will become like this, and vampires are a race that must appear and it cannot be changed.
So no matter which country suffers, it is a destined fate.
Why do we say that vampires are destined to appear? The answer is simple. Even though there are so many cultivation systems on Blue Star and everyone has countless possibilities, innate talents limit everything. Whether you want to be a cultivator, a magician, or an Onmyoji, these systems all require a major premise, that is, the person involved has talent.
Without talent, the system with the least development prospects will reject people.
There are red fruit, Udumbara flower, and Tianshan snow lotus among the flowers to be grown. There are also various great experts and scholars who specialize in studying this topic. Even ordinary people who have no talent at all can live well in growing flowers.
But what are there in foreign countries?
It's not that their experts haven't studied these aspects, but their main focus is still on studying practitioners. After all, they are not like flower growers, who have so many ancient powers who can answer all kinds of questions in detail.
So in order to balance this problem, Chu Yi could only choose to release the vampire.
Just like the red fruit used to grow flowers, the person concerned does not need to have any special qualities. As long as he takes it, he will have 60 years of internal strength and instantly become a martial arts master. Vampires have the same effect on foreigners.
Maybe after becoming a vampire, you will lose human emotions and become a completely new species, but at least life based on your will still exists in this world, right?
There is an old saying about growing flowers: It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.
Being able to live forever, gaining great strength and eternally youthful appearance, half of the disabled people in the world would like to have such a life. In fact, when the various cultivation civilizations developed to the later stage, the image of vampires on Blue Star regained its former "glory", and it was unknown how many people were following them.
Because people discovered that vampires are not limited to sucking human blood, and sucking a small amount at a time will not directly turn a person into an irrational monster.
Humans once believed that people bitten by vampires would either be assimilated or become irrational, crazy monsters. But later it was discovered that vampires release toxins when they suck human blood. If too much toxin accumulates, it will indeed turn people into irrational monsters who only know how to chase blood.
But there is a prerequisite for this change to occur, that is, the vampire sucks more than 30% of the blood in the human body. Only when the amount of blood loss reaches a lethal level, the toxins injected into the human body during blood sucking will not be filtered, turning the person into a monster like that.
As long as the amount of blood sucked at one time does not exceed the limit, the human body will purify itself, and trace amounts of toxins will not cause too serious consequences.
At most, it will make people addicted to vampires, just like taking drugs, and they will chase vampires madly, just wanting to be sucked blood again.
Under such circumstances, it is normal for the handsome and unparalleled vampires to be sought after by those without abilities.
Chu Yi decided to release the vampire in the first place because he wanted to stimulate the situation at that time and let everyone work hard to move forward under the spur of the enemy. On the other hand, we want to increase the combat power of Blue Star.
She had done divination beforehand and knew that there was no blood in the other universe that could be accepted by vampires, so there was no need to worry about them betraying the human camp. Even if they are a scourge to humans, they are a scourge that can be helpful. In order to protect their own food supply, they are willing to charge forward for the galactic civilization.
As for the idea that aliens can study human blood as a substitute for meals and thus reach cooperation with the vampires, Chu Yi is not dead, and she will not let this happen.
She has wasted so much energy and sacrificed so many innocent lives. She is not here to make wedding dresses for others.
The situation in Lusa is similar to that in Country F.
Witches and werewolves were born from Lusa, but neither is human. They can all transform into human appearance and live in the human world, but their essence is non-human.
Although they don't put humans on the menu like vampires do, witches are still involved with humans. The witch clan consists of only females, no males, but their reproduction is the same as that of humans, requiring union with the opposite sex.
And because witches are a humanoid race, they like to seek help from weak humans the most.
In countless fairy tales in the West, witches are extremely eager for love and would even disguise themselves as ordinary human beauties to seduce the king and make themselves the queen. Of course, in the end they are often exposed by the protagonist and end up dying a miserable death.
Therefore, they will not give up the Kingdom of Lusa, which is their birthplace and has natural advantages. For the sake of convenience, they will try their best to preserve the Kingdom of Lusa.
Countries that can rise in this world have their own unique characteristics, and countries that decline are not without reasons. Perhaps the difference cannot be seen on the Blue Planet. The few remaining human countries live in harmony with each other and usually share what they have. But when the time comes to compete in overall strength, the difference can be seen.
Even though the Galactic Civilization is the initiator of the Cosmic United Conference, it is not strong enough and is not qualified to sit at the same negotiating table with everyone.
Following behind the Dragon King and passing through the low-key space gate, Chu Yi and his group of flower-planting representatives saw again a group of fleets quietly anchored in the depths of the universe.
"Brother Yan, do you think the aliens are very confused now? What on earth do we want to do?" She crossed her arms and looked at the planet below and the ship opposite with interest, her face full of interest. "We set the meeting place on a deserted planet, but when we got there on time, it was still a deserted planet. Do you think they will think we are trying to intimidate them?"
"Don't take it lightly. It was just a show of force."
Looking at the intimidating spaceship in front of him, there was no fear on Gu Jiayan's face, and even the look in his eyes when he glanced at it was extremely calm. The Galactic Civilization has been preparing for this day for a hundred years. They have also been practicing day and night for so long. If they are afraid anymore, it would be a waste of their efforts.
"Perhaps they will be angry out of shame. After all, they have been the overlord of the universe for long enough. Even though they know that our saints are not easy to mess with, being looked down upon like this will definitely make them angry. Maybe they have already listed one, two, three, four countermeasures to deal with us in their minds, and will start implementing them after the meeting is over."
Qin Hang leaned on his flying sword, looking a little uninterested.
As the backbone of the new generation of flower-growing monks, they can see much more information than ordinary people, and they are well aware of all kinds of information that many people do not know. For example, the model, power, and even the weapons equipped by the warship in front of them are no secrets in their eyes.
Although Qin Hang didn't know where the country got the information from, Zhonghua would not harm them in such a matter. Perhaps the conflicts between monks and mortal regimes are increasing year by year, but in the final analysis, they are also part of the flower-growing community and are ultimately human beings.
Only if the monks develop well, flower planting will become more powerful.
"Those who can come to the negotiation site are all very cunning people. They would not be so weak."
Meng Pu, a familiar face of the crowd, adjusted the cuffs of his wide Hanfu, with a kind and gentle smile on his face that had been baptized by time. "Even if I am angry in my heart, I will only show closeness. Just like me, I am a smiling tiger."
At the end, Meng Pu made a small joke, which attracted everyone's laughter.
"Haha, how can you say that about yourself? Teacher Meng is not a smiling tiger. This is called demeanor." Chu Yi blinked mischievously, and his words were full of intimacy.
Meng Pu can be considered an old acquaintance who has been with everyone since the early days. After so many years, the relationship between them is no longer so unfamiliar. During festivals, Chu Yi and Gu Jiayan would go to the Meng family to celebrate together.
Although Mr. Meng's spiritual root is not good, it is only a low-grade water spiritual root, but having a spiritual root is much better than being a simple powerless person, and there is a lot of room for maneuver.
He has worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for his entire life, rising from a small clerk to the current position of Foreign Minister. I don't know how much effort he has put in. His efforts are obvious to all. During his tenure, China has never suffered any diplomatic losses.
Before the new era arrived, Meng Pu had more fans than Chu Yi, the internet celebrity handicraft blogger.
So when Mr. Meng's life was about to come to an end, Chu Yi and the others tried their best to improve the old man's cultivation. This was not only their own wish, but also the request of the country.
Just as fans don't want to see a familiar face pass away, the country doesn't want to waste time searching for and training diplomats with abilities comparable to Meng Pu.
Anyway, they don't grow flowers and nothing else, but they have the most resources.
There is an old saying that goes 'An old person in the family is like a treasure', and these treasure experts are one of the reasons why flower planting can develop rapidly. With the joint efforts of the country and Chu Yi and others, national pillars like Grandpa Meng Pu were preserved as much as possible.
"But I see that everyone who should be here has arrived, and the live broadcast is ready. When is the saint going to appear?"
Jiang Yongyan carefully extended his spiritual sense to scan the area, then turned his head to look at Chu Yi curiously. Chu Yi has a very good relationship with both saints, so it would be right to ask her this question.
When others heard Jiang Yongyan's question, they all turned their attention curiously, wanting to get first-hand information.
"Almost there, half a minute left." Chu Yi did not disappoint everyone and gave an answer accurate to the minute. "Teacher Meng and Teacher Yu, it will be up to you later."
At this meeting, this group of monks only acted as thugs to intimidate others with force. Those who mainly fought for the interests of the country were professionals in this field. However, due to various considerations, only two people were sent this time. One was Foreign Minister Meng Pu, and the other was Yu Cheng, a former diplomat and current head of the Dragon Group’s intelligence team.
"Leave it to us."
"no problem."
The two people who were called by Chu Yi smiled confidently, and looked up at the alien fleet with eyes full of fighting spirit.
The future depends on today's game.
