BXBX NOVEL Chapter 540 - You Will be Proud of Being an Earthling
Chapter 540 You Will be Proud of Being an Earthling
It is confirmed that Mu Tiannan has some other plans so the war will not affect the earth theoretically. Lin Luoran is relieved and she begins to arrange everything calmly.
No one is perfect, and any perfect plan may be destroyed because of a small mistake. Lin Luoran decides to prepare herself for both eventualities. It will be the best that the war does not affect the Earth Federation. If the earth is involved, she has to ensure that ordinary people have a way out.
In the afternoon, Pang Xianzhong comes to the villa. Seeing Mu Tiannan is also here, he knows the “misunderstanding” between his savior and Mortal Heart Fairy must have been resolved. He didn’t understand why his savior didn’t contact with Mortal Heart Fairy since they were old friends. At this moment, he feels moved seeing the two sitting under the tree casually.
The first thought in Pang Xianzhong’s mind is kind of crazy—they are the people of the same world.
After some secret talks, Lin Luoran personally contacts several decision-makers except Pang Xianzhong in the Earth Federation for the first time. She also contacts some important officers of the military. They talk by VPN set by Xiaozhi and hold a video conference for four hours.
Officers have some questions. After Mu Tiannan and Lin Luoran explain to them clearly, they realize that Lin Luoran’s proposal is the most helpful to the situation—in this interstellar war, the Earth Federation should not expand its territory by fishing in troubled waters. Instead, guarding what they have is the top priority.
By the dusk, Liu Qingdai has arranged everything. Lin Luoran shows up at Mount Jun as scheduled.
Lin Luoran is well-known at this moment, which is different situation from that on the Miaoyin Spell Conference. Propaganda is not needed. All kinds of cameras quietly appear on Mount Jun Island. They are here just to broadcast everything to more people of the federation.
Lin Luoran gets on the island and talks with the two concubines of Xiaofei and Xiangfei. At eight o’clock, she flies in the air on time. Lin Luoran makes clouds as her seat. Unlike the grand gesture she had when she first appeared, her clothes are very ordinary today.
But when she stands and talks in the clouds, people may have the illusion that golden light is flashing behind her.
“People of the Earth Federation, I am Mortal Heart.”
By holy spell, her voice spreads to every corner of Dongting City. All her believers can hear the soft but determined female voice. It is more like a ringing in their mind which sounds very real. In places where the sound can’t reach, a broadcasting system rebroadcasts this speech. Xiaozhi even prepares to hack the most-watched interstellar station of the Alpha Alliance so that earthlings in any corner of the Alpha Alliance can hear it.
“I know you must be very anxious at this moment, worrying that the war which almost destroyed the earth will reappear again.
More than three hundred years ago, the people of the earth became destitute and homeless because of the Alpha Alliance. Civilians on the earth were slaughtered, and their homes were turned into scorched land. The cause leads to the result. Three hundred years later, the Alpha Alliance has to face the result.
The people of the Federation, I apotheosized myself before the new era to protect the waters of Dongting. However, I did not show up when the earth was in the most difficult situation. For that, I have blamed myself and felt guilty.
But this time, I am in Dongting beside each of you. I am with you.
The earth is still very weak and I cannot make a decision to push any precious life to face the artillery fire. Therefore, what I have said to you today is not to encourage everyone to participate in the war.
Some people may ask if it means we forget our bloody history and act as if nothing has happened, or maybe it means we deceive ourselves not to think and forget our vendetta...
Before we become stronger, I hope you can be safe and worry-free, saving your precious lives to watch the victory of the earth a few years later.
Our victory does not lie in killing life to show our strength.
Our victory does not lie in bullying other weak planets to show our strength.
Our victory is to make our home planet Earth stand upright among all kinds of stars. The earth is not a shameful colonial star, and it will not be enslaved or oppressed by any alliance. Our victory is that one day, every earthling from the Earth Federation can have dignity in the boundless universe. Our victory is that one day, you will all be proud of being an earthing!
For you, for your children, and for your grandchildren to witness the day of victory, I implore you to come back from the interstellar and return to the Dongting City which is somewhat undeveloped and somewhat dilapidated compared to other prosperous stars.
The most united belief is the only way we survive the biggest crisis of the Earth since the New Era. Dongting needs us, and the earth needs us.
I need your faith to build the strongest protective dome in the world.
I hope that everyone who has dedicated his or her faith can take root in this land to be the most indestructible cornerstone. As long as you don’t give up, Mortal Heart will not give up, unless my godhead is broken, my primordial spirit is destroyed, and my body is ruined. I will guard Dongting with everyone.
So... please come back!”
Looked out of small windows, Lin Luoran’s figure is clear in air. Everything she says is not to deceive her believers, but to do her best to expand Dongting City infinitely.
Since there are no gods and Buddhas on the earth, she doesn’t have to care about Taoist field restrictions anymore at critical moments. Those desolate places can be new places for her Taoist field expansion. If she has enough believers, if their beliefs are pious enough, if her Taoist field expands... the invincible “Dragon King Seal” above Dongting City can be extended!
The people can be free of worries. She, Mu Tiannan, and others can also fight with the coming starships without fear of disturbance in the rear.
Without a large number of civilians as hostages, they can fight more flexibly and wisely. For the worst scenario, they still have “monster army” of the Green Mountains. They can both attack and retreat. Naturally, the Earth Federation does not have to worry that they may get involved in this battle—even if these two alliances are very likely to take advantage of the Alpha Alliance and the earth at the same time!
Lin Luoran’s speech is not long. After a short period of silence, she hears depressed crying from Dongting City.
Firstly, it’s very weak, but it quickly becomes a sound wave.
Among them, the panic and anxiety of this period are all vented. The people on earth are not timid, nor lacking in enthusiasm. They just hope that when they are confused, someone can stand out and show them the way forward!
It is said that a hero is nothing but a product of his time. Lin Luoran is the chosen one who stands out at this moment. With the crying, there are countless power of faith.
In the last defense war, Dongting City was intact in the artillery fire of the Alpha Alliance. They trust the power of Mortal Heart Fairy and they begin to regain the belief which earthlings gradually lost with the decline of cultivation civilization.
The halo behind Lin Luoran’s figure suspending in air becomes clear due to the convergence of power of faith. Her whole person is bathed in the light of faith. Although she isn’t dressed up, her whole person looks sacred and inviolable.
After crying, she can feel resilience rising from Dongting and soaring into the sky. That huge wish has merged into somewhere in the void. “Dragon King Seal” of Dongting City has changed from being firm to soft. It seems to be full of malleability?
Lin Luoran is the god of one place, so her speech and Great Wish in her Taoist field will be certified by the heaven. Accordingly, the law will respond. If she breaks her promise in the end, those oaths will naturally be realized on her—her godhead will be broken, her primordial spirit will be destroyed, and her body will be ruined.
Lin Luoran’s speech in the sky above Dongting is supported by the federal government both in terms of public opinion and action.
On the second day after it is broadcast, Xiaozhi and Mu Tiannan work together to ensure that the Alpha Alliance and even other alliances can all see it. After last Dongting Miaoyin Spell Conference, the power of faith Lin Luoran gains soars again.
After the speech is published, the Alpha Alliance angrily announces that it will cancel the qualification of Rank One member star of the earth. It will also expel the citizens of the Earth Federation in other member stars of the alliance.
Those member stars do not act too bellyful. Although they can not violate the order of the alliance, they are still willing to send the earth citizens back as a favor without trouble to themselves. The war is going to be fierce, but a Rank One member star has the nerve to boast. They all know that it has support. Maybe in the future, they have to rely on the Earth Federation. Why do they leave no room for manoeuver?
Most of the Earth Federation citizens are willing to move back to Dongting happily. A small number of people are troubled became of family affairs, so they look pitiful when they are forcibly sent back to the Earth.
Some high-rank member star people sneer at Lin Luoran’s trick of “mystifying things”. They even post some mocking words on interstellar net when showing concerns about the war.
Who will be proud of being a citizen of a Rank One member star rejected by the alliance? That’s totally insane!
These alliance people express how glamorous and noble they are willfully. In the near future, they will be slapped in the face by their own “hands”. At that time, “being earthlings” they ridicule now will become “safe green cards” that is hard to buy.
The Earth Federation has been persuaded by Lin Luoran. It acts very efficiently.
On the second day after Lin Luoran delivers her speech, the Federation begins to organize masters of martial arts and spirit power of Dongting. With starships, it begins to clean up the mutant monsters around Dongting City.
Dongting City has to accommodate the people who have moved back from moonstar and Pluto. There are also people of the gathering places who have always stayed on the earth. The present cities alone can never hold so many people. Expansion is the primary task. The federal government has stayed up all night before coming up with a plan to expand Dongting City. It decides to build ten major cities with Dongting City as the center and arrange the return of citizens in batches.
The alliance restricts trade with the earth, but it can’t block Mu Tiannan’s private network of relationships. Building materials and various supplies are still being sent to the earth continuously.
The expansion plan includes leaving a large amount of idle land among cities and cities. After all, no one knows how long this situation will last. When a large number of people gather together, food is always not enough no matter how much it is stored. After the land is developed, people can achieve basic self-sufficiency.
On the day of cleaning the mutant monsters, Lin Luoran and Mu Tiannan participate in it openly. Even Hu Ji also changes his lazy temperament and works hard without complaining.
As for the siblings of the Ma family, it’s finally the time for their personal ability to be tested after several years of training. Colin also engages in it. Bai Qingxue has extremely low personal ability but she also joins them.
Only Han Weiya is fascinated by the Tao of Bolus. She has no offensive power. With red eyes, she stays up all night to make various medicinal powders useful for handling mutant monsters.
Mu Tiannan’s dream finally comes true as years passed. This time, he can fight together with Lin Luoran instead of hiding in the dark. He spares no efforts.
He can’t count how many high-level mutant monsters he has killed. If the Federation counts the amount of contribution, Mu Tiannan will be better than Lin Luoran on the record.
Young Hu Ji who plays an auxiliary role in the battle is very dissatisfied with this result. He pouts all day long and his lips can almost lift two pounds of mutant pork!
Mortal Heart Fairy appears on the front line with cultivators. Martial arts and spirit power masters fighting with mutant monsters all feel refreshing because of the mysterious and powerful arts of nature.
In the past, they felt that 90% of the earth was occupied by mutant monsters and it’s difficult for humans to win completely. Now they are in a desperate situation, and they must compete with the mutant monsters for survival space. People suddenly discover that the mutant monsters do not reproduce indefinitely. Especially for higher-level mutant monsters, it takes a long time to cultivate one. Killing one means getting rid of one, which is not as hopeless as expected.
Monster meat, various materials, and inner boluses are all taken back by the federal government to record the corresponding contribution of those who participate in the battle. Monster meat can be a food reserve. Inner boluses can be used as energy for city operation and they can also be powerful and effective energy for psionic weapons.
As mutant monsters are gone, the infrastructure staff can carry out their work quickly. The expansion of Dongting City will keep pace with it. Construction machines do not need to sleep. With the cooperation of manpower, the basic construction of the first defense city takes less than one month.
The foundation must be taken into consideration, the infrastructure must be able to meet the needs of the population explosion, and all these must happen quickly... Experts sent by the federal government are worried. Old scholars are so excited when they see tall buildings are built everywhere in the first defense city.
The federal garrison deploys many layers of defense and uses all the techniques learnt secretly. Finally, two months later, Defense City No. 1 announces that the first batch of citizens can move in.
At this moment, the war between the Alpha Alliance and the two alliances has shown fatigue of the stalemate period. The Elok Alliance and the Bape Alliance have paid a huge price, and they are no longer satisfied with only a little reward. The two alliances are obviously more willing to completely defeat the Alpha Alliance and then divide the spoils equally.
Time... time... Lin Luoran now feels that every second is precious! She really wants to make millions of “Lin Luorans”. In this case, she can do everything.
How the federal government arranges the first batch of repatriated citizens is very fair. Each class, the ratio of men to women, and the capacity of young and old are all taken into consideration. The government makes sure that after the first defense city is put into use, it doesn’t have to pay extra efforts. Everyone can play his or her own role to ensure the daily operation of the city.
Liao sees Lin Luoran is so busy that she loses lots of weight. It is too rare for a cultivator and it shows how exhausted she is. This makes Liao feel very guilty. He wonders if he should tell Lin Luoran the truth.
But before he decides to do so, the person in charge of the institution Mu Tiannan mentioned before rushes back from the outside world and appears in front of Lin Luoran.
It is a middle-aged man, and his face is kind of familiar to Lin Luoran.
The middle-aged man’s surname is Rong. He is now the head of a “Li In Advanced Human Body Extreme Limit Research Institute”. Lin Luoran is confused by the long name. However, she sees a familiar ring when the middle-aged man insists on giving her a junior salute.
The light green opal... surname is Rong...
Lin Luoran’s eyes light up, and Mu Tiannan helps her aside, “Li In’s predecessor is actually ‘Lins’ Pharmaceutical Factory’. He is surnamed Rong... haven’t you guessed it yet?”
How can she doesn’t know that honest college student Rong Donglin who invited her and Luodong to eat instant noodles on the train? He was a “modern scholar” who always wanted to spend his entire life on repaying the the Lin family’s little favor.
Why did he stay on the earth? And why his descents took over the former Lins’ Pharmaceutical Factory?
Mu Tiannan said that when he first formed the alliance, a large amount of financial support came from “Li In”. As for why the descendants of the Rong family stayed, it’s another story of Rong Donglin.
It was a business genius named “Tess”, a young girl of the Eskimo tribe. One day, she found the hometown of the fairy who had helped her... that would be another extraordinary story with romance, steadfastness, and wisdom.
