Chapter 217 There is no shortage of idiots on Earth 210
As Bai Zhongqi immersed himself in preparing for the future invasion by the Teizen, Earth was far from tranquil. This was to be expected, especially since Bai Zhongqi had launched a campaign to eradicate the Brain Worms, causing major political upheaval in many leading nations. Power structures shifted, and control over societal and national affairs severely waned. Even in a traditionally stable and civilized country like the Lighthouse Country, riots of varying degrees broke out in over forty cities, with some regions suffering significant loss of life and property.
What was even more terrifying was that Earthlings experienced a collective mental breakdown upon receiving news of an impending invasion by a Cannibalistic Civilization. Although Bai Zhongqi released only limited information, the basic details became well known.
A two-year preparation period (or rather, a struggle for survival), a fleet of thousands of interstellar warships, enslavement of countless other civilizations, preying on intelligent beings, vicious and brutal...
Such news was enough to make any rational person collapse. People were living ordinary lives, never imagining significant changes to their lifestyles, but then the Iridium Star people appeared, and Earth's societal landscape began to change dramatically day by day. Suddenly, there were Brain Worms and Lizard People, even facing an existential crisis for the Earth—it was too much for anyone to accept.
After concluding his Fleet preparation plan on Spratly Island, Bai Zhongqi took a blue wave boat to Amsterdam, Netherlands, to attend a meeting.
Most European countries saw near total destruction of their political and business sectors during the extermination campaign. Like the Netherlands, a well-known Western European power, from the national to the local government, almost everything was dissolved. The Dutch military itself lost all combat effectiveness due to purging the Brain Worms and the human officers entangled with them.
In the Netherlands, Bai Zhongqi even had to deploy over ten thousand Bionic Human soldiers from Spratly Islands to maintain stability.
However, this approach caused dissatisfaction among many locals. In truth, after Bai Zhongqi disclosed the situations regarding the Brain Worms and the Teizene to the world, while many people became shockingly aware that their known world was an illusion, those who lost their sense of familiarity with the world of yesterday sometimes reacted hysterically.
When Bai Zhongqi's spacecraft arrived in Amsterdam, he was transported in a vehicle provided by the Dutch side to the conference center. To his surprise, there were massive crowds of protesters along the way.
Sitting opposite him, his assistant Zero blinked her large eyes and said to Bai Zhongqi, "The protesters here come from all over Europe, and the opposition to you is from every facet. Your Majesty, you have almost faced unanimous opposition from left-wing, right-wing, centrist, just about every political spectrum and ideology, which can be considered unprecedented."
However, Zero seemed to enjoy the commotion, saying with a smile, "This person's analysis is actually quite accurate; indeed, without Iridium Star's quantum communication devices, Harass would not have been able to send Earth's coordinates back to Teizene Star."
Bai Zhongqi hadn't disclosed these details, but some people speculated. They thought that before the Iridium Star arrived, no aliens or even alien invasions had been seen, so it must somehow be related to the Iridium Star.
The emotions of the protesters escalated at that point, with someone even shouting, "Iridium Star people, get out of Earth, Earth belongs to Earthlings!"
"Iridium Star people, get out of Earth!"
"The Earth belongs to us!"
Meanwhile, the ideologists were also chanting, "Long live democracy, the dictatorial reign of the Iridium Star will eventually collapse!"
Zero sarcastically laughed and said, "I used to think that Iridium Star people and Earthlings were of the same race and would be quite similar physiologically. But in fact, Earthlings are very different from Iridium Star people; this group of Earthlings is brainless, not analyzing the pros and cons. Suppose we really just quit now, stop the Star Alliance, and leave Earth like this, Iridium Star would not have to take any risks, and no one would die, but Earth would be conquered by the Teizene, and Earthlings would be enslaved by the Teizene, even becoming their food."
Ironically, as soon as Zero finished this sentence, someone outside shouted, "I would rather be eaten as a free person than be a slave under the rule of toxic vegetables!"
Zero was surprised and felt incomprehensible, saying, "Maybe sending these kinds of low-intelligence individuals to be eaten by the Teizene is not a bad choice."
The car had now moved away from the crowded area of protesting crowds, and Bai Zhongqi's surroundings became much quieter. He chuckled and said, "Fortunately, we Iridium Star people would not do such irresponsible things. Regardless of whether these people understand or not, as the Iridium Star Chancellor, as the leader of the Star Alliance, I cannot simply ignore this."
Having said that, he added with a sly expression, "Of course, some excessively excessive individuals should contribute themselves to the Star Alliance on other remote stars. After burning away their own lives, their descendants raised under the glory of the Empire will always remember the glory of the Star Alliance and the responsibilities of being a citizen of the Star Alliance."
