Chapter 405 - 319: Epilogue – The Wedding of the Two Little Ones
Xue Dili originally thought they might deliberate for a long time, discuss it for a while, and then decide whether to join or not.
Unexpectedly, not long after, as soon as Xue Dili landed in the Royal Capital on Giant Beast Star, 5332 delivered the news.
"Brother, after an emergency discussion, His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire and the Cabinet Minister decided to join the Interstellar Corps." This mecha brother directly got to the point with Xue Dili.
Xue Dili: "?"
Is your Empire’s administrative efficiency that high?
In Xue Dili’s impression, matters concerning the essence of a feudal Empire would usually take the higher-ups ten days to half a month to discuss. Perhaps if the Emperor were somewhat weak, the court might directly escalate to multiple factions fighting against each other, only remembering to address this issue after their disputes were settled. That would be the normal procedure, right?
Seemingly aware of Xue Dili’s thoughts, 5332 said embarrassedly, "9119 and others represented the independent regime of Colonization Star 2 by joining the Interstellar Corps. The Emperor and the Cabinet Minister got anxious upon hearing this, so they passed it instantly."
Having said that, it continued sheepishly scratching its head, feeling as if its own leader had embarrassed themselves outside.
Xue Dili remained silent, merely watching 5332 quietly, suddenly realizing that they still had a large mess of issues, such as the conflict between the Empire and the Rebel Army, the conflict between the Empire and the people, the conflict between the Rebel Army and the Imperial Army, and so on.
Never mind, it’s so annoying. Whatever 5332 and the rest want to do, they’ll do. Whether the Rebel Army wins or the Empire wins, one side will likely receive the political asylum of the Interstellar Corps. So, just let them stir things up and see what they’ll turn the original Empire into.
At this moment, 5332 was no longer in the heavy mecha form of Scorched Earth Mechanized Soldiers but rather a humanoid light mecha about 3 meters tall, walking alongside Xue Dili.
Presently, the Free Iron Curtain had returned to their homeland and established a new nation, named: Free Iron Curtain!
Unlike the extreme militarism of the former Super Iron Curtain, the Free Iron Curtain completely overturned the previous style of the Super Iron Curtain. They no longer favored war but focused on rebuilding their homeland and childbirth.
After all, the world of Iron Curtain Planet was in a state of disrepair. The entire earth had been devoured by insects. Even though vegetation and original animals would gradually recover after Genesis, all flora and fauna were newly grown.
Currently, the tallest trees were estimated to be only a bit taller than a person. The original ecological system of the entire world was expected to go through a major reshuffle and a long period of chaos before gradually stabilizing.
And the population of the entire Free Iron Curtain was less than ten thousand, so they devised a method to improve their population size through... artificial humans!
Their numbers were too few, with even fewer women, making it take possibly tens of thousands of years to recover to a degree of civilization through natural reproduction. Therefore, they thought of creating artificial humans through gene editing among themselves.
The first batch of artificial humans planned to prepare over a hundred thousand, which would keep them busy by then.
Meanwhile, they strongly encouraged normal marriages, expecting that after about 15 generations, the population of the Free Iron Curtain would recover to a healthy number, and the civilization of the entire world would return to its proper course.
And the founding of the Free Iron Curtain happened yesterday, with a member from Giant Beast Star visiting to congratulate them and sign a millennium peace and mutual aid agreement.
As for the matter after the coordinates of the Super Iron Curtain were exposed, the Interstellar Corps had also figured out a solution.
Using a peculiar Treasure, they slightly altered the angle of a fixed star, causing it to drift slightly toward an empty area in the Cosmos. Yet, to the entire Cosmos, this slight shift turned into an unimaginable distance.
After all, the fixed star system wasn’t stationary but also continuously moving. The so-called coordinates also contained the moving trajectory. By adding the trajectory to the original coordinates and time, one could precisely figure out the current position of the planet.
That’s also why the Teleportation Gate often took a long time to open, as calculating the landing spot was a huge task. However, Xue Dili previously had the Great Prophet handle the calculations for the Teleportation Gate, but from now on, he might have to calculate them himself.
Thus, if the Mist Council members arrived again according to the original coordinates, they would likely end up in an incredibly vast vacuum space, as the entire Super Iron Curtain had unknowingly shifted far away through that angle.
It even seemed that the Interstellar Corps had created a spatial blockade at the original coordinates using the Mimic Venerable King, so the Mist Council could only teleport to adjacent coordinates, increasing the difficulty for the Mist Council to capture them.
Hence, the Iron Curtain Star was completely free from the threat of the Apostles.
In the new homeland, they would establish a true, new era belonging to them.
...
Meanwhile, in the Royal Capital, people were immersed in the joy of war victory and mourning for the deceased.
The war was won, and this news spread through live broadcasts and news across the entire Giant Beast Star. The catastrophe of billions of insect swarms had been resisted, and they had successfully helped their allies recover lost ground.
Although they didn’t gain much credit in the counterattack of the Super Iron Curtain, they were still participants, so everyone proudly held their heads high.
Meanwhile, millions of people’s relief payments were gradually distributed to all families, with no need for identifying remains. Those who participated in the insect wars were now piled together with the insect bodies in West Sea City, with hardly any intact corpses remaining.
