Chapter 193 Peace Talks or Destruction?
As expected. The development of the Three-Body World was exactly as the Designer, Su Qiu, had imagined.
The final meeting regarding the Wallfacers had begun.
At this meeting, the person in charge primarily attacked the absurdity of the Wallfacer Project and the meaningless actions taken by the four Wallfacers.
"Throughout the execution of the Wallfacer Project, the Human Alliance has had a massive amount of resources wasted pointlessly!"
"First, the plan devised by Wallfacer Taylor was proven to be completely meaningless."
"Secondly, there was the unrealizable plan of Wallfacer Rey Diaz."
"Then there is the Mental Seal of Wallfacer Hins, which severely infringed upon the freedom of thought. If even the freedom of thought is locked away, what difference is there between Human Civilization and extinction?"
"Finally, we must talk about Wallfacer Luo Ji!"
"After becoming The Fourth Wallfacer, he abused his Wallfacer privileges to satisfy his own selfish desires, and then used ridiculous and absurd actions to grandstand!"
"After deliberation."
"We have decided to cancel the Wallfacer Project!"
"Because the Wallfacers are no longer of any help to us humans!"
"Everyone, let's vote!"
Although two hundred years had passed, the voting format of human society had not changed much.
A show of hands!
Following the statement by the person in charge at the final Wallfacer meeting, everyone present raised their hands in agreement.
This meant that the cancellation of the Wallfacer Project had passed!
From now on.
The two Wallfacers who had survived to the Crisis Era would have their privileges completely revoked!
They would be no different from any other ordinary humans on Blue Star!
The appearance of this scene immediately made the audience in the Three-Body livestream restless.
They felt unfamiliar with this plot, and bewildered.
"Wait, what is going on here?"
"The Wallfacer Project is just being cancelled like that?"
"No, something is very wrong! You have to know that while Divine River was driving the plot, the Wallfacer Project was never cancelled!"
"Exactly!"
"I get it! I suddenly get it! There's a reason why Divine River's Wallfacer status wasn't cancelled!"
"What reason?"
"Didn't you notice that there wasn't much time between the establishment of future kindling and his awakening from hibernation! With the level of human technology at that time, it would have been impossible to develop future kindling!"
"It was Divine River who handed over the blueprints for future kindling that he exchanged using Strategy Points!"
"After seeing such a terrifying warship, the Human Alliance naturally wouldn't reject Divine River's Wallfacer status!"
"So, in the plot he was involved in, the Wallfacer Project was not terminated!"
"But the situation is different with Luo Ji."
"As a Wallfacer, he didn't provide any substantive strategic guidelines, so naturally, the Human Alliance would no longer recognize his status as a Wallfacer."
"Yeah. Humans now think the Three-Body World is nothing to fear, and naturally, they turn up their noses at the Wallfacer Project."
"..."
The audience was very smart.
In just a few seconds, everyone had figured out the reason why the Wallfacer Project was terminated.
Three-Body World.
Su Qiu, in the guise of Luo Ji, offered no objection to the proceedings of the meeting.
He nodded, and then, following the arrangements of the special envoy, cut off the feed.
Su Qiu was very clear.
His departure did not mean the end of this final Wallfacer meeting.
The wife of another Wallfacer confessed her identity as a Wallbreaker at this very moment, and, in front of everyone at the meeting, revealed the true thoughts of Hins!
It was the Mental Seal—
Hins was never a staunch victory-ist from the beginning, but an escapist.
The choice he made as a Wallfacer to ensure the continuation of the human kindling was escapism.
When the Three-Body fleet arrived at Blue Star, Human Civilization should have fled; only by fleeing would there be a possibility!
Of course, Su Qiu did not see this part of the plot, and the audience in the livestream whose main perspective was him did not see it either.
They followed in Su Qiu's footsteps to this world two hundred years later.
During this time.
Su Qiu met with Big History, and while visiting this future world, encountered multiple murder attempts!
—A self-driving vehicle collision that was dismissed as a traffic accident!
—A manhole cover slipping at a sewer entrance!
—An assassination attempt by a robot waiter while eating at a restaurant!
—Prescription sleeping pills that had been swapped!
—Deadly tentacles extending from the sofa to choke Luo Ji!
Su Qiu, in the identity of Luo Ji, was experiencing a completely different storyline from Divine River.
This brand-new plotline attracted the curiosity of all the viewers; while they settled their thoughts in the livestream, they were also pondering who exactly wanted to assassinate Luo Ji!
"I think it's the Three-Body Organization; they probably weren't completely wiped out by the Human Alliance!"
"I think so too."
"How could they be easily wiped out by the Human Alliance with the help of the sophon?"
"They must have gone into hiding, all to completely eradicate Luo Ji, this Fourth Wallfacer!"
"But why didn't Hins have any problems?"
"How do you know he didn't have any problems?"
"We don't have Hins's perspective, so how can we be sure if he was assassinated or not?"
"Exactly, exactly!"
However, the identity of the person who wanted to assassinate Luo Ji was soon revealed.
After investigation, it was a virus named KILLER that had been planted in the previous century.
Because Luo Ji had been in a state of hibernation.
The virus had never been active.
It wasn't until today, when Luo Ji woke up from hibernation, that the virus activated, thereby launching a series of assassination attempts on Luo Ji!
After deliberation.
Luo Ji and Big History decided to move to the surface first.
Because there was no hardware there for the virus to manipulate, and at the same time, both of them were more accustomed to the world on the surface.
Three-Body World.
The two who returned to the surface soon met a middle-aged man.
Luo Ji did not know him.
But Big History was very familiar with him; after embracing this middle-aged man who looked to be of a similar age, he informed Luo Ji of his identity: "This is my son."
The fact that their ages and appearances were similar was entirely due to the different times they had entered hibernation.
"Can you tell us the story of these two hundred years?"
Shi Xiaoming readily agreed.
He began to tell Luo Ji and Big History the story of these two hundred years.
From the Great Depression.
All the way to the current rapid development of technology.
"The final result."
"Is what you see after waking up from hibernation."
"The human world is now in a state of great prosperity, and the level of our Space Fleet has surpassed the warships of the Three-Body World."
"This has led everyone now to believe that the probe sent by the Three-Body people is for negotiating with Blue Star."
"Because they have no other choice."
"In a few days, the probe sent by the Three-Body people will arrive in the Solar System. Right now, thousands of warships of the Human Alliance are on standby, just waiting for the Three-Body probe."
