618: Yang Dian: Uncle Lei, have you seen this scene?

After a long while, Lin Nan, who was seated at the head, was about to speak.

Lin Qi, having received some information, suddenly stood up.

Noticing Lin Nan's frown at his actions, Lin Qi involuntarily trembled for a moment.

But thinking of the information he had just received, a sneer appeared on his face.

'Whether Tiannan Star will even exist is an unknown.'

'As the Dominator of the Tiannan Star United Army, Lin Nan will definitely be among the first to be purged by the Alien Civilization.'

'Even if he isn't purged, he will certainly lose his power.'

'In that case, what do I have to fear from him?'

Thinking this, he took another deep breath and projected another video.

Above Origin Corpse City, behind Yang Dian and the other two, a bright silver circular area, a thousand meters in diameter, had appeared at some unknown point.

At this very moment, every second, things resembling the mechs from their sci-fi movies, with intertwining blue-black patterns all over their bodies, cold blue light shining from their eye areas, and a golden-red flag emblazoned on their left chests, were flying out of that bright silver circular portal, which seemed to be a space passage.

After flying out of the bright silver portal, these mechs would all look around for a while.

Then, as if receiving an order, they saluted the three individuals hovering above Origin Corpse City, before obediently flying behind them and forming neat, uniform ranks.

Watching the mech tide, which was gradually becoming so vast it seemed to cover the sky and obscure the entire world, Lin Nan, who had been sitting upright, suddenly seemed to lose all his strength. His spine curved, and he slumped directly into his chair.

"This... this... this..."

Lin Nan repeated "this" three times without forming a complete sentence.

Lin Qi, guessing his thoughts, sighed:

"This is footage just broadcast live by Bai Jie, a frontline reporter for Rising Dragon Television."

"The Unknown Civilization bypassed the Two Worlds Passage and directly opened a new passage, summoning their world's army."

After explaining, he looked at the mechs, which already covered the sky and were still continuously flying out of the space portal, and swallowed with some difficulty:

"I feel like it will be very difficult for us to win."

"Furthermore, influenced by the live broadcast and the Two Worlds Overlap Zone, almost all ordinary Citizens have learned about the Alien Planet invasion. Currently, about 85% of the Citizens are watching the Rising Dragon Television live broadcast."

"Affected by this, the Two Worlds Overlap Zone in the area where Origin Corpse City is located is continuously expanding."

"In less than two minutes, it has expanded from a diameter of 300 kilometers to 350 kilometers, and it is still expanding at an extremely rapid rate."

Lin Nan rose indignantly upon hearing this:

"Then what are we waiting for?"

"Why aren't we quickly cutting the Rising Dragon Television live broadcast?"

Lin Qi was silent for a moment before speaking:

"It's useless."

"The moment I received the information, I immediately tried to do that, but the television station said they couldn't cut the live signal or close the live broadcast screen."

"The television station's network has been hijacked."

"Can't we physically disconnect the internet?" Lin Nan stared intently at Lin Qi:

"Pull the plug, pull the network cable, and if that doesn't work, cut the power lines, physically cut the power!"

Lin Qi said nothing, merely projecting a message he had just received.

["Hello, I am Huaxia Expeditionary Force Artificial Intelligence - Ya Zi. We are now officially informing you that we will be using your Rising Dragon Television for live broadcasting. During this period, you must not interfere with the television station's normal operations in any way, otherwise it will be considered a declaration of war against us."]

"The people from the Alien World have already analyzed our language and writing, and have sent me a threatening message."

"Dominator, do you still wish to proceed with a physical network disconnection?"

Staring blankly at the message Lin Qi projected into the air, Lin Nan's body went limp, and he slumped back into his chair, raising his hand to tremble as he pointed at the Ya Zi, which appeared vividly in the air along with the text:

"This... this..."

Seeing him speechless, Lin Qi sighed again.

Time truly is a butcher's knife.

It not only cuts through the years, making people old, but also turns former heroes into cowards.

Back then, when Lin Nan led everyone to reclaim the lost lands of the Human Race from the zombies, driving them into the Walled City to be kept, how arrogant and proud was he?

It was absolutely true to say that he was commanding and majestic, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger.

But now?

In just over ten years, power and desire had devoured the former hero.

He had not only become dictatorial and overly protective of his life.

Even his former vigor and decisiveness were gone.

'Under his leadership, even if we originally had a chance to win, it will now only infinitely approach zero.'

No sooner had the thought arisen than Lin Qi saw Lin Nan stand up, his eyes red:

"Tell Rising Dragon Television to cut the power immediately!"

At these words, not only Lin Qi and everyone in the conference room, but even the vividly projected Ya Zi in the air cast different looks at Lin Nan.

As if sensing the doubt in everyone's eyes, Lin Nan said decisively:

"The Dimensional War is only limited to within the Two Worlds Overlap Zone."

"People from the Alien World cannot leave the Two Worlds Overlap Zone; this is an ironclad rule!"

"If we cut off the live broadcast, even if the people from the Alien World are unwilling, they can only rage ineffectively within the Two Worlds Overlap Zone!"

"They sent the message only to stall for time, to maximize their influence!"

"As long as we cut the network cable, everything they do will be in vain!"

Just as everyone in the conference room felt Lin Nan made sense, Ya Zi suddenly broke free from the projection's constraints, or rather, took control of the projection, enlarging its body and projecting an image of it stepping onto the table and walking towards Lin Nan.

As the pupils of everyone in the conference room contracted, Ya Zi also spoke in the Tiannan language:

"Do you think we can hijack other television stations, or the signals of all other wireless and wired devices, in addition to hijacking Rising Dragon Television's signal?"

"If you forcibly shut down Rising Dragon Television, we will also forcibly control all your communication terminals and broadcast the live footage in real time."

"Of course, you can also choose to physically cut off all signals."

"But when a technological civilization, under our influence, cannot use any communication terminals, isn't that also a huge impact?"

"The Dimension Barrier will expand as it should."

"Furthermore, while the Dimension Barrier restricts our entry and exit, it does not restrict the propagation of light and magnetic fields."

"Do you think we have the ability to launch satellites and forcibly take over your communication terminals?"

"Finally, do you think a small Dimension can truly trap us?"

As the sound faded, the enormous Ya Zi scanned everyone in the conference room, snorted, and then disappeared.

Lin Nan completely lost all will to resist, slumping back into his chair once more.

'Perhaps, we should look for another path?'

In the conference room, everyone exchanged glances, their minds complex.

Above Origin Corpse City, Yang Dian watched Ya Zi show off a bit in front of the Tiannan Star ruler, and couldn't help but laugh as he poked its materialized body:

"You little thing."

"The showing off I didn't get to do, you did first."

Uncle Lei, standing nearby, also laughed heartily:

"Ya Zi did very well."

"It seems that in the future, when we encounter such low-difficulty Alien Planets, we can let Ya Zi take charge of coordination, and let ordinary Citizens control mechs to participate in the conquest."

As he spoke, he looked at the boundless metal tide behind him.

Although there was no flesh inside the iron, he could feel that the Legacy of the Human Race's fanaticism for war, ingrained in their bones, was almost overflowing into the sky!

Thinking this, he glanced again at the mechs still continuously flying out of the space portal behind Yang Dian.

"This number, it must have exceeded the permanent population of Hangzhou, right?"

Yang Dian chuckled:

"Everyone is a soldier now."

"You know, Citizens all love to join in the fun, so everyone who heard the news logged into the virtual pod."

"The school even treated this Dimensional War as a trial, issuing combat missions."

As he spoke, he became even more amused:

"Uncle Lei, 1.4 billion people conquering a land with a diameter of 300 kilometers..."

"Oh no, now it's a land with a diameter of 395 kilometers."

"Have you ever seen a scene like this?"
