Meteor Fall Master in the 'Starry Abyss'

Chapter 984 - 33: Congratulations, Congratulations, Congratulations to You

"Losses include 168 cities, with the economic hub Weidler City destroyed, and the financial system has basically collapsed. However, the most important grain-producing region, the Grante Republic, remains undamaged. The property losses are incalculable."

"Losses of high-ranking generals: Frost Plated Country’s Head of State, President David Lyn, Marshal Dexter, Major General Sallyan—all generals who walked together from the republic era have already passed away."

"Sky Ring Republic: 494 million deaths, Red Army 1.2 million, only 27 remain. The national defense system has been obliterated. All others are civilians."

"Losses include 402 cities, the entire bureaucrats of the Phantom Palace joined in battle, Prime Minister Gretto Yegg, President, and Red Army Leader Narrow Space Mirror, confirmed to have died in valor. The property losses are incalculable."

"The Sky Ring Republic is nominally extinct, with less than 20 million remaining population."

"Red Arrow Empire: 9 million deaths, Imperial Guard 410,000, all others are civilians; overall, it was not severely hit."

"Lost cities: 29. Property 1.9 million Galun, national sovereignty has been lost, currently under the control of the Baizhu Autonomous State, with Head of State Rudolf under house arrest, awaiting trial at the war tribunal."

"Loss of high-ranking generals: none. Three generals refused to surrender, leading their subordinates independently in guerrilla warfare in the mountains."

"Zhengxu Democratic Republic: exterminated."

Nephis finished reading the compiled information and looked at the Flame-Haired Girl in front of him:

"Boss, that’s the current situation on Azure Star."

"Hmm, I understand."

The Flame-Haired Girl sat on the throne of Red Arrow, resting her head on her hand, after pondering for a moment, she opened her eyes and spoke softly:

"The countries that started the war ended up being the least punished. These days, if you have the capability, it’s better to be an aggressor; resisting aggression is too difficult."

"As long as you wage war on enemy territory, no matter what, it’s a gain."

Nephis said:

"That’s what the groups and companies say. And according to the actual situation, it’s more or less the same. Regardless of whether the military objectives are achieved or not, the damage to the enemy’s government and people is far greater than anything else."

"After a round of war, the power dynamics shifted, Zhengxu destroyed, Sky Ring nominally extinct, Red Arrow still maintains the power of a great power, although there are some losses, they still have plenty of energy and reserves. And Frost Plated..."

The Flame-Haired Girl’s lips slightly pursed, and her brow furrowed.

"Frost Plated has also suffered great losses; perhaps we should aid Frost Plated in its reconstruction, which could also promote employment on Baizhu Star—"

Nephis was interrupted halfway.

"No."

The Flame-Haired Girl, resting her chin on her hand, said:

"David Lyn played a good hand."

"But Frost Plated also lost a lot..."

"What Frost Plated lost was merely population and property, but these two things, in the era of returning to the sun’s shine, can recover in just a few decades. Not to mention, they still have the most fertile Grante black soil, losing almost 60% of the population, ironically lifting the crisis inherent within Frost Plated’s creditism system."

The Flame-Haired Girl picked up another report:

"Creditism, created by David Lyn, has two huge problems: one is on the societal level, the other on the economic level."

"On the societal level: Creditism adopts a state-enterprise-worker trinity strategy, which seems absolutely fair but is essentially a massive factory. The nation’s leaders are merely factory directors, and although people’s material standards are high, their cultural and mental realms are extremely impoverished. This is why David Lyn could sit firmly in the president position—look at these casualty lists, David Lyn’s batch of people, it was only due to this war they could truly exit the political center."

"That is to say, David Lyn used this war to truly liberate power and return it to the people. And due to the sharp population decrease, Frost Plated will inevitably introduce immigrants from other countries—by then, a truly multicultural society, with exchanges and collisions among different groups, will suffice to form an excellent humanistic atmosphere."

"And on the economic level: The biggest problem with creditism, which heavily relies on material production and consumption, is a lack of resources. Now, with the population sharply reduced and the sun returning to the land, future resources will be more abundant than they are now. People will be more eager to immigrate to Frost Plated."

The Flame-Haired Girl sighed:

"David Lyn, this guy is not considering decades—his ambition is too great. At this rate, it seems Red Arrow has suffered the least losses, yet Frost Plated becomes the unparalleled protagonist of Azure Star."

"In terms of sentiment: Frost Plated is the great hero of the campaign against Lord Entropy, fighting the most valiantly."

"In terms of reason: The massive advantages above will make it the political and economic exchange center of human civilization in the future."

"He even considered the issue of the political elders, in the course of this war, bringing his old subordinates to suffer the national ordeal together..."

"All obstacles standing in the way of Frost Plated becoming the leading great power on Azure Star were cleared by David Lyn."

"Now, as an external alien force, we need to choose a country as Baizhu Star’s proxy, and this country must have top-level public support, prestige, economy, politics, culture, and technology to allow our governor government to stably rule Azure Star."

"And in every aspect, Frost Plated is the most suitable candidate."

The Flame-Haired Girl’s expression was complicated:

"Is someone like that really human?"

"If I didn’t know your background, I would be a little scared... Even being the Society Chairman wouldn’t be much better than this, a mere mortal considering things hundreds and thousands of years into the future."

"David Lyn, how far ahead are you really considering?"

Up to now, she still couldn’t find an existence that could replace Frost Plated.

Even knowing that this way, Frost Plated will become the biggest winner, yet on the surface, they must still pay special attention to the reconstruction work of the Frost Plating Federation.

In addition to the future war reparations from the Red Arrow Empire, the Sky Ring refugees all in place, the unoccupied Zhengxu territory...

The future Azure Star, I fear, will belong only to Frost Plated.
