Chapter 1732 - 1726: Rights and Obligations
Therefore, the Alliance feels it can send Wang Yongzhu to trace the rebel army’s whereabouts. Once confirmed, the Alliance has developed a potion specifically for them. By having the rebels ingest it, their mental and physical powers will completely collapse, making them easy prey.
At that point, the Alliance will prepare a special tool for Wang Yongzhu to capture the rebels. After catching them, contact Chen Xing, and the Alliance will find a way to transport the rebels back.
This involves tremendous risk, but the rewards are substantial.
If Wang Yongzhu can assist the Alliance in completing this capture mission, regardless of success, Wang Yongzhu will have made a significant contribution to the Alliance.
This contribution would be enough for Wang Yongzhu to enjoy the highest level of treatment upon arriving at the Alliance.
Later, Chen Xing detailed the highest level of treatment in an extensive document for Wang Yongzhu’s reference.
Wang Yongzhu glanced through the highest level of treatment offered, and it undeniably stirred her heart.
However, she didn’t let this enormous temptation muddle her thoughts, choosing instead to set the document aside.
She knows that profits and risks are directly proportional. Can rebels, who have evaded the Alliance for years, really be captured so easily?
If she intervenes and the rebels discover her, will there be a threat to her life?
For Wang Yongzhu, if she can help the Alliance without harming her own interests, she is naturally very willing to do so.
But if it requires sacrificing her own life, she would politely decline and let the Alliance figure it out on their own!
She is just that selfish!
Moreover, if she refuses, will the Alliance make things difficult for her? Like retracting previous offers and promises?
Upon hearing Wang Yongzhu’s concerns, Chen Xing explained straightforwardly that according to Alliance law, they sincerely request Wang Yongzhu’s assistance.
If Wang Yongzhu declines, that is her freedom and her legal right granted by the law.
The Alliance has no reason to retaliate against Wang Yongzhu for this reason, as it would go against the highest legal ethos of the Alliance.
Thus, Wang Yongzhu need not worry about this.
Furthermore, in requesting Wang Yongzhu’s assistance, the Alliance will naturally prioritize her safety, as Wang Yongzhu is merely an Alliance citizen. Due to the space-time reasons, she couldn’t even enjoy citizen benefits, thus her obligations to the Alliance are relatively reduced.
Moreover, even as Alliance citizens, there is no obligation to sacrifice one’s life for the Alliance.
In Alliance law, only those in special professions, like military or police, have such duties because they enjoy corresponding special benefits.
So, even if Wang Yongzhu agrees to cooperate, Chen Xing will remind her to prioritize her own life during the operation.
And upon agreeing to cooperate, the Alliance will sign a contract with Wang Yongzhu, clearly marking all terms, and Wang Yongzhu then confirms all terms are accurate before it becomes effective.
After hearing Chen Xing’s explanation, Wang Yongzhu is somewhat reassured.
She couldn’t help but ask, "Can I enjoy this because I’m an Alliance citizen? If I weren’t, would I still receive such treatment?"
Chen Xing’s voice rang out coldly and mercilessly: "In all worlds and cosmic spaces, rights and obligations correspond. You have made outstanding contributions to the Alliance, thus you enjoy these rights. If you haven’t contributed to the Alliance, naturally, the Alliance wouldn’t consider your rights!"
In other words, you’re one of us, so we’ll think about keeping you alive.
If you’re not one of us, then we won’t care!
Wang Yongzhu was dumbfounded; it was her first time directly facing the Alliance’s cold side. Previously, she enjoyed the conveniences provided by the Alliance, albeit through Points or other exchanges, increasing her goodwill toward the Alliance day by day.
Coupled with the earlier naive System from Tian Tian, this skewed Wang Yongzhu’s perception of the Alliance. Now, Chen Xing’s words, lacking any emotional threat nor intimidation, were still so calm and cold, yet they brought Wang Yongzhu unprecedented clarity.
For a long time, she was somewhat dazed.
Yet, Chen Xing remained patient, knowing Wang Yongzhu couldn’t quite process this, which is why Chen Xing courteously gave her time to adapt.
After a while, Wang Yongzhu finally regained her voice and asked, "How many rebels are there? Do they have weapons? How can I identify them? Is it because of that letter that you found the rebels’ pheromones—"
Speaking of which, Wang Yongzhu grasped the letter in her hand, her mind suddenly illuminated: "Could the rebels be Qi Le? But isn’t Qi Le a member of the Qi Family? If she’s a rebel, how would she be born to the Qi Family? Could this be a mistake?"
"No way! If what you say is right, I’m just Level B Physique because in this space-time, there’s not enough nutrition, so my body resists pregnancy. Qi Le was married to the King of the Grasslands for so many years without a child; could this be due to her physique too? What physique are most rebels like?"
"And one last question, are rebels human? Or some other kind of species? Are all Alliance citizens like me, humans? Or are there other types?" Wang Yongzhu’s mind recalled those science fiction movies and novels from the past.
You know, aliens aren’t necessarily human!
Once Wang Yongzhu finished her series of questions, Chen Xing began to explain them one by one.
Regarding Qi Le, if the letter was indeed written by her, then it confirms she was one of the rebels back then. Her inability to conceive is also due to her physique problem.
The universe is vast, as is the Alliance, encompassing several galaxies, and includes various life forms.
Some are like Wang Yongzhu, humans, and others are beastmen, mechanical life forms akin to Transformers, pure animals, and even spiritual entities.
Among the rebels back then, there were quite a few different life forms.
From Chen Xing’s judgment, if Qi Le exists in human life form, with complete family and birth records of this space-time, then either she’s a human life form who used mental force to hypnotize those around her, making them believe she was a baby growing up.
Or she’s purely a spiritual entity that invaded a newborn baby’s mind, replacing that baby.
Lastly, with an expression in this space-time’s language to explain this phenomenon: possession.
Wang Yongzhu suddenly understood. If this is the case, it explains why Qi Le feels no affection for the Qi Family, and why she was admired in the Capital City, captivating countless people.
