Ready

Still negotiating? Lin Yuan: We're not waiting any longer. Facts will teach them a lesson!

"Establish a Human Alliance in the true sense of the word."

As the words fell, the entire living room, along with the more than twenty supreme command rooms on the other side of the screen, instantly fell into dead silence.

Human Alliance?

This term was not new.

Over the past few decades, it had been mentioned countless times, and just as many times, it had been shelved due to various conflicts of interest.

But now, spoken from the mouth of Lin Yuan, the weight was completely different.

"From today on, upon the Blue Star, there will no longer be divisions of nations, nor distinctions between forces."

Lin Yuan's voice was calm, yet carried an unquestionable decisiveness.

"There is only one name: Human."

"All martial arts resources, technological achievements, and military forces shall be fully integrated and uniformly deployed."

"The entire Blue Star shall immediately enter the highest state of war readiness."

"Abandon all unnecessary internal friction, and commit over ninety percent of resources to the preparations for the coming war."

"We have no time left."

These words were like bolts of thunder, striking the crowns of everyone's heads.

On the screen, the expressions of those bigwigs were incredibly vivid.

From shock to horror, and then to... rapid weighing and calculation.

Uniform deployment? Resource integration?

This... this was no longer a proposal!

This was an attempt to completely overturn the existing global order!

"Absurd!"

Sure enough, the representative of the White Eagle Country was the first to slam the table and stand up!

His face flushed red with excitement.

"Mr. Lin Yuan! Are you trying to turn the whole world into a place where only your Longxia has the final say?!"

"Who will lead this Alliance? You?"

"What about our sovereignty? What about our interests?!"

His questioning was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand ripples.

"That's right, how will the issue of command be resolved?"

"Must the distribution of resources be absolutely equal? Is that fair to the resource-rich nations?"

"The military of our Oulu Alliance will never be handed over to an outsider to command!"

For a moment, the screen became noisy and unbearable once again. Arguments and questions rose one after another.

In the Lin family living room, Lin Mengyao and the others watched this scene, expressions of 'as expected' appearing on their faces.

As for Lin Yuan, he simply watched quietly from beginning to end.

He watched those "leaders" on the screen, arguing until they were red in the face for the sake of so-called "interests" and "sovereignty."

A hint of annoyance even appeared on his face.

So noisy. So troublesome.

He finally raised his hand impatiently.

A simple gesture, yet it seemed to carry a certain magic.

All the arguing on the screen stopped abruptly.

Everyone's gaze focused on him once again.

"You have misunderstood one thing."

Lin Yuan leaned back into the sofa, looking at them with the eyes one might use to look at a fool.

"I am not discussing this with you."

"I am simply too lazy to save you one by one after the disaster occurs, so I am notifying you in advance."

"As for who will lead..."

He sneered, as if he had heard some huge joke.

"You are not qualified to have me lead you."

"..."

Dead silence. A complete, deathly silence.

On the screen, everyone was collectively petrified.

Their mouths were slightly agape, their minds blank.

Arrogant! Too arrogant!

So arrogant that it exceeded the scope of what they could comprehend!

In the corner of the living room, Gu Ningxue could not help it and chuckled "pfft," quickly covering her mouth, though her shoulders shook violently.

Lin Mengyao held her forehead, her face filled with helplessness.

Her younger brother's "social anxiety" was indeed selective.

In the face of trouble, he had social anxiety.

In front of the whole world... he was like a father to this group of people!

After a long while, an old man finally let out a long sigh, breaking this suffocating silence.

His voice carried a hint of exhaustion and helplessness.

"Consultant Lin... your proposal is of great importance and involves too much. We need time to conduct internal deliberations."

This proposal was immediately echoed by everyone.

"Yes! We need to deliberate!"

"This is not something that can be decided in a few words!"

Lin Yuan shrugged indifferently.

"Suit yourselves."

He picked up the remote control and pointed it at the screen.

"However, let me offer a reminder."

"There is not much time left for your deliberations."

Having said that, he didn't even wait for a reply before pressing the off button.

Zzzzt—the huge screen instantly turned pitch black.

This global summit, which could be called the most surreal and briefest in history, just like that... ended.

The living room fell into a strange silence.

"Is it... over?"

Lin Ke'er blinked her large, innocent eyes, her face full of disbelief.

She was the first to break the silence, saying indignantly.

"How can these people be like this!"

"Brother has already said it to this extent, yet they still want to deliberate? Do they have to wait until the monsters are at their doorstep before they realize how serious it is?"

Lin Mengyao reached out and rubbed her little head, a mocking arc curling at the corners of her mouth.

"Silly Ke'er, what do you think they are deliberating about?"

"What they are deliberating is not how to deal with the crisis. It is how to maintain the power in their hands during the coming crisis, or even... take the opportunity to seize greater interests."

"Humans are just like that."

Gu Ningxue also walked over with a wine glass and chuckled.

"Ask him to hand over resources? That would be more painful than killing them."

Su Li's cold, clear voice sounded with a hint of worry: "Then what about us..."

Everyone's gaze turned to the instigator who had remained indifferent from beginning to end.

Lin Yuan.

It was as if he had not taken what just happened to heart at all.

In fact, this result was entirely within his expectations.

If one person teaches another, they won't learn. If events teach a person, once is enough.

He believed that very soon, reality would teach this group of self-righteous fellows the most profound and painful lesson.

As for him, he had no interest in playing this game of house with them.

Lin Yuan stretched, stood up from the sofa, and his bones let out a series of crisp cracking sounds.

"Alright, the show is over."

He looked around at everyone, his face returning to that lazy expression.

"Let's go."

"Hm? Where to?" Lin Mengyao was stunned for a moment, "The party isn't over yet!"

Lin Yuan did not answer and walked straight toward the door, leaving everyone with only his back.

"To the south."

"To the south?" Lin Yuan's abrupt words left everyone in the living room stunned.

Lin Jianguo frowned; his instinct as a soldier immediately made him sense something.

He asked in a deep voice: "The south? Why the south? Could it be that a new threat has appeared over there?"

Lin Yuan's footsteps paused slightly.

He turned his head, glanced at his father, and then looked at the others nearby, who were also full of confusion.

He did not answer directly but instead asked a question in return.

"Do you remember the last thing Grandpa warned me about before he left?"

Lin Jianguo's pupils shrank violently!

In his mind, the grave expression on Lin Zhan's face before he left flashed instantly!

"That missing black insect egg, it escaped to the south."
