Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“What? A s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p from the Galactic Federation has launched an attack on Earth that could destroy the entire planet?!”
The Earth Federation was shocked by the news.
“Yes, it’s not like a nuclear bomb, which merely scratches the surface and could only wipe out humans. It’s the type that could blow up the whole planet…”
Smith was startled and quickly asked, “Is there any way to intercept it?”
“No, this kind of attack is beyond our imagination. Even a million nuclear bombs would be useless!”
“A nuclear explosion, at best, creates a hole a few kilometers wide, but the diameter of Earth is 12,742 kilometers.”
“The attack from the Galactic Federation could blow up the entire Earth. How could our nuclear bombs possibly intercept it?!”
Senator Smith had just stood up, only to sit back down heavily.
“We’re doomed, Earth is doomed…”
“We’re finished…”
The place was filled with cries of despair. Faced with the threat of death, the dignity of the senators was nowhere to be seen. They cried helplessly, like children.
The war between the Galactic Federation and the Pangu civilization was akin to a battle of G.o.ds, naturally drawing global attention.
Many amateur astronomical groups had also observed the situation. Overwhelmed with fear, they released the news to the public.
The whole world was shaken again.
“An attack that could blow up Earth, how is this possible?”
“Do we have any way to intercept it?”
“From what we see now, there’s no way. This attack is too powerful, beyond human comprehension…”
“Can’t be, isn’t our Earth technology quite advanced?”
“Yeah, didn’t this expert thaw a virus from ten thousand years ago? That expert created a mini black hole, or some expert announced they’ve created a four-dimensional s.p.a.ce…”
“Are all these experts just talking nonsense?!”
“Experts love to exaggerate, you know that, right? How else would they secure funding?!”
Netizens had not expected that Eathr, with its touted advanced technology and various s.p.a.ce projects – from solar system modification and Mars colonization to artificial sun creation, would be helpless in a real crisis.
“The gap in technology is just too wide…”
“It’s not that Earth isn’t strong, it’s just that the enemy is too powerful…”
“Yeah, according to scientists, Earth’s technology level is around 0.75, while the technology to blow up Earth must be at least over 2.00…”
“You should know, it’s taken us humans millions of years to barely reach a level of 0.75…”
“And for aliens to reach 2.00, they must have developed at least tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions of years earlier than us…”
“How did we develop for millions of years? Haven’t we only been technologically advanced for 200 years?”
“What about the four great inventions of the Xia Dynasty? Without gunpowder, papermaking, and printing, could you have developed further?!”
“Do you expect scientists to do calculations on bamboo slips?”
“Or load arrows into flintlock rifles?”
“Do you know the phrase ‘erudite scholar’? It was because ancient texts were all carried on bamboo slips, and in ancient times, anyone who had the opportunity to read five chariots of bamboo slips could be called a scholar…”
“Stop this nonsense, let’s think about how we can survive!!”
“Is this something we ordinary people can handle?!”
“Exactly, whether we can survive or not depends not on us, but on whether the military has some secret advanced technology…”
“Secret advanced technology, my foot! Don’t believe those dime novel claims that the military’s technology far surpa.s.ses that of the civilians. If 0.75 is the base level, even if the military is ahead of the civilians, it would be at most 0.85. Can they jump to 1.75?!”
Just when people were desperate, suddenly, someone thought of a possible way to save Earth.
“Wait, don’t we have the Pangu civilization?!”
“The Pangu civilization on the moon shares the same origin as us on Earth, they won’t just let Earth be destroyed, will they?!”
“Remembering the moon now?”
“Weren’t you quite happy when you were criticizing the moon before?!”
“If I were a Pangu person on the moon, I definitely wouldn’t help Earth at this moment…”
“Darn it, are you even from Earth? If Earth is destroyed, you’ll die too!!”
“Don’t panic, I’m a writer. I’ve written a sci-fi novel where aliens are about to destroy Earth. Let me write these aliens to death…”
Some netizens were in surprisingly good spirits, compared to the panic-stricken senators of the Earth Federation.
As the saying goes, the more you have, the more painful it is when you lose it. Ordinary people have already experienced many hards.h.i.+ps and have reasons to survive. They aren’t afraid of living, so why should they fear death?
“Watching them make money through connections is even worse than death for me. We all die together; sounds pretty good…”
“To the author above, don’t save Earth, I’m ready to die…”
“If Earth is destroyed, I might lose a little, but the rich will definitely lose a lot. Worth it…”
“Let it end, I’m tired…”
Of course, the mainstream society still didn’t want to die. As the saying goes, it’s better to cling to life than to have a good death.
“Does anyone know how to contact the moon? Let them come and save us!!”
“Yeah, what is the Earth Federation doing? Contact the moon!”
“Even if we’ve insulted the moon before, we’re still of the same origin, they can’t just watch us die…”
“Yes, we’re also descendants of the Pangu civilization. We were only misled by Senator Smith when we criticized the moon. We ordinary people don’t know who’s good and who’s bad.”
“That’s right, we ordinary people only get our news from the Earth Federation. They can say whatever they want, how can we tell what’s true and what’s not?!”
“I say, let those guys in the Earth Federation be punished, but don’t drag us ordinary people into it…”
“We, the Great Xia, have always supported the Pangu civilization…”
In the face of the crisis, netizens finally remembered the moon, and the Pangu civilization that had recently acknowledged their kins.h.i.+p. They started sending private messages to the Earth Federation, urging them to ask the moon for help.
“Senator Chu, your Great Xia has always had a relations.h.i.+p with the Pangu civilization. Please, ask them for help!!”
Smith was in despair when he suddenly thought of the Aliens on the moon. He jumped up and shouted at the several council members of the Great Xia.
Upon hearing this, everyone started pleading too.
“Senator Chu, you said before that all of us overseas are descendants of your Great Xia. We accept that, please ask the Pangu civilization to save us…”
Senator Chu’s face showed a shocked expression. He didn’t expect these people to change their faces so quickly, and their att.i.tude was so humble, it was unprecedented.
“We can’t bear the responsibility of claiming all overseas people are descendants of the Great Xia…”
Before he could finish, Smith hurriedly interrupted, “Dad, stop dithering! Any later, and Earth will explode. Send a message to our grandfathers on the moon and ask for help!”
What… thick skin!
Senator Chu thought to himself. If someone wants to play the role of a grandchild, he can’t stop them. He nodded and said, “I understand. If Earth explodes, we’ll die too. I’ll message the moon now and see if they can save Earth….”
