Chapter 78

~7 min read 1,285 words

Gray Wind pointed to the habitable planet in the distance and said:

【"Based on the Empire's Colossus, I invented a planet-destroying attack."】

【"Your Majesty, look, the Empire currently has these types of planet-destroying weapons."】

【"World-cracker, both the planet and the people are gone."】

【"Neutron sweep, the people are gone but the planet remains."】

【"Pacifier, the people remain but the planet is gone."】

【"Toxic flow, only a septic tank planet remains."】

Gray Wind blinked and said:

【"And the planet-destroying weapon I newly created can leave both the planet and the people."】

【"Allowing the Empire to completely destroy the enemies on a planet without losing population."】

Listening to Gray Wind's words on the light screen, all living beings across the universe revealed confused expressions.

"The planet and the population are not damaged? Then isn't that like nothing happened?"

"Neither the people nor the planet are destroyed, how can this be called a planet-destroying weapon?"

"Not killing people, not destroying the planet, how to destroy the Calamity Empire's enemies?"

Listening to Gray Wind's words on the light screen, Aventurine, sitting in the Enterprise ship, revealed an interesting expression.

"A planet-destroying weapon that doesn't cause any damage to the planet or the population on the planet?"

"Hahaha, Ratio, if I were your client and commissioned you to design such a weapon, would you beat me up?"

Aventurine looked at Dr. Ratio, who was sitting to the side, and asked with great interest.

"You might as well ask me to manufacture 'colorful black', I could do that."

Dr. Ratio said, resting his face on his hand.

He thought for a moment and said:

"You should know that the power of Harmony can even pull all the people on an entire planet into the Family's harmony."

"That way, you could conquer a planet without spilling blood."

"That's also close to planet-destroying, but... that's something only the Aeon's power can achieve."

Aventurine raised an eyebrow and asked:

"Do you think that Gray Wind on the light screen can achieve something similar?"

"Don't underestimate the Calamity Empire." Dr. Ratio closed his eyes and cast his gaze back to the light screen, ignoring Aventurine.

The scene on the light screen changed abruptly.

It was a planet covered by more than 90% ocean.

Warm, deep blue sea breezes blew, sweeping across the slender buildings built along the coastline.

These buildings were all hung with tiny wind chimes.

When the sea breeze blew, the wind chimes jingled, crisp and pleasant.

In the slender buildings distributed along the coast, starfish shuttled and played.

"It's canned goods... oh no, it's starfish!"

"It feels like a long time since I've seen starfish; seeing these unlucky guys again, I actually feel a bit nostalgic."

"This time the starfish shouldn't be too unlucky, after all, Gray Wind said her planet-destroying weapon wouldn't cause population loss."

All living beings across the universe saw the familiar starfish, and for a moment, they actually felt like they were seeing an acquaintance.

One could see the broadcast continuously ringing out on the ocean planet on the light screen:

【"Children of the starfish, after a long voyage of more than ten years, we have finally escaped from the hands of the Calamity Empire."】

【"But we will not forget the hatred of more than ten years ago; the hateful humans cruelly slaughtered the starfish in order to take Europa 7 from our hands!"】

【"The peace-loving starfish nation had to embark on a diaspora until we found this ocean planet."】

【"This ocean planet is the sanctuary promised to us by our ancestors, the Promised Land flowing with milk and honey."】

【"We eliminated the barbaric fish-men who occupied this planet and were able to be reborn in this Promised Land."】

【"However, one day, we will return to the stars and take revenge on the cruel Calamity Empire!"】

This broadcast rang out in every corner of this ocean planet.

The starfish were chattering, clamoring to take revenge on the humans one day, even the young children.

The living beings across the universe watching this scene couldn't hold back.

【"Damn, I actually felt a little pity for them before, I didn't expect them to be so good at distorting facts."】

【"It was clearly them who snatched the Earth United Nations' Gaia planet Europa 7 and slaughtered the humans on it, and humans counterattacked."】

【"In their mouths, Europa 7 actually became theirs??"】

【"Shameless, they actually slaughtered the original inhabitants of this planet and occupied this planet!"】

For a time, the sound of cursing across the universe rang out continuously.

80. 【The Self is a Prison】

All living beings across the universe were shocked by the shamelessness of the starfish.

They actually dared to distort history like this.

It was clearly them who snatched the Earth United Nations' Gaia planet Europa 7 and slaughtered the humans on it.

The Human Federation, the Earth United Nations, and the Calamity Empire, angered, formed a joint fleet and launched a revenge against the starfish.

The starfish lost their original home and embarked on a wandering journey.

In their mouths, it turned into humans snatching their planet, slaughtering their people, and driving the peace-loving starfish out of their home.

What made the living beings across the universe feel most shameless was that,

these starfish actually cruelly slaughtered the original inhabitants of this ocean planet and occupied this planet.

The reason for doing this was actually just "This planet is the sanctuary promised to us by our ancestors~."

Such absurd and shameless behavior made all living beings across the universe completely throw away any pity they had for the starfish.

"... This seat has seen many shameless Abundance abominations and Abundance-folk."

On the Luofu Xianzhou, in the Divination Commission, Lord Fu Xuan took a deep breath and said:

"But a race as shameless as the starfish on the light screen, this is also the first time this seat has seen one."

"Damn it, the Calamity Empire destroyed their country, it's simply removing a pest for the universe."

Lord Fu Xuan watched the starfish children on the light screen clamoring to take revenge on humans and slaughter all humans,

her eyes immediately revealing disgust and sorrow.

These young starfish were treated as truth after being fabricated, replacing innocence with cruelty, and rationality with hatred.

The world in their eyes was greatly distorted, and good and evil were reversed.

Such a race had actually entered a dead end full of sin.

Lord Fu Xuan understood in an instant why the Calamity Empire hated these so-called aliens.

This race could not be changed just by punishing some culprits.

This race, from top to bottom, from adults to children, all accepted a set of distorted history,

determined that this world owed them,

all their plundering became reasonable, and all resistance against them became a sin.

The Calamity Empire's choice to slaughter them all actually became a reasonable measure.

Thinking of this, some twisted Abundance-folk and some medicine-seekers with twisted values appeared in Lord Fu Xuan's mind.

These civilizations, in order to pursue the path of immortality, also had abnormally twisted values.

It was not impossible for these civilizations to do the things the starfish could do.

Lord Fu Xuan suddenly had an idea...

"Should the Xianzhou also imitate the Calamity Empire and purify these medicine-seekers and Abundance-folk who have failed to obey the Xianzhou's education?"

"To prevent... them from causing greater harm to the stars."

As soon as this thought popped into Lord Fu Xuan's mind, it became somewhat uncontrollable.

In Belobog, Qliphoth Fort, in the Supreme Guardian's office,

Bronya felt a chill run down her spine.

Especially seeing the starfish slaughtering a group of original biological species that hadn't yet stepped into the stars,

Bronya felt like she was going to vomit.
