Chapter 411: 411: Migration of People of Earth

It was just one week before the New Year, but today, a significant event took place.

Countess Diana from the Tianhe Empire announced the commencement of star migration.

Lately, the Tianhe Army had also granted numerous poor citizen identities on Earth.

Thanks to Lin Zhen’s distribution of identities, Diana had to grant some identities as well to appease her occupied territories after Lin Zhen issued tens of thousands of identities.

The propaganda during this period allowed the people of Earth to accept the outside world, knowing that beyond Earth, there was an endless sea of stars filled with countless wonders.

Many people yearned for the world outside.

And now, Diana announced the migration to other planets.

All television programs and the internet were broadcasting Diana’s speech.

“All people of Earth, in this time, you should have recognized your identities. You are part of the Tianhe Empire. The planet beneath your feet, as well as the boundless space outside, and all the places that you can see and even telescopes can see, are the territory of the Tianhe Empire.”

“Beyond Earth, there are endless worlds. Now, some of my troops will return, and I call on all the people of Earth to choose to follow the army and leave unconditionally, regardless of whether they have previously obtained citizen identity, poor identity, or no identity.”

“My army will depart from capital Base Cities in various countries, and there are only three hours left until takeoff. Those who wish to leave, please arrive at the capital and board the spacecraft within those three hours. They will take you to the new world.”

“There is nothing left to care about on this planet. I wish you good luck on your interstellar journey!”

Diana’s speech ended, yet it set off tremendous waves on Earth.

Can we finally leave Earth!?

At this moment, Earth was boiling. Countless people wanted to venture into the sea of stars, but many were also reluctant to leave their homeland. It presented a polarized situation.

Many people took to their flying vehicles with reckless abandon, leaving their homes and heading to the capital.

Although there were still many mutated beasts on the way, they could not stop people’s enthusiasm for the new world.

They had seen the propaganda about the new world for a long time. There were no mutated beasts or dangers, only a happy life and an endless, beautiful dimensional universe to enjoy.

With such a beautiful place, why would anyone want to stay on a dangerous Earth?

Just as people were frantic about leaving their homes, Lin Zhen stepped forward and spoke.

“Fellow Earthlings, I am Lin Zhen, currently a Count of the Tianhe Empire. In the near future, I will become the Lord of this starscape, and the area within one light-year will be my territory. You can go wherever you want, just like tourism.”

“The promise provided by Diana cannot be trusted. Without power, none of you will be accepted, frankly, not even worthy of being a slave. Here I advise you all to stay calm and patient. Those who are willing to follow me, I will give them a bright future.”

Lin Zhen’s words were like pouring a bucket of cold water on the feverish people.

Lin Zhen did not disclose much information in his speech, just stating that he would become a Lord and hoped that people would stay.

Diana’s troops were about to leave, leaving two choices in front of the people: trust Diana or trust Lin Zhen.

It can be said that most Earthlings were more willing to believe Lin Zhen.

Especially in Hua Xia, after Lin Zhen spoke, the Hua Xia government immediately issued a statement asking all citizens to remain calm. They didn’t need to do anything; happiness would come as long as they waited patiently.

Now, many of the Hua Xia officials had been given citizen identities through Lin Zhen.

They accepted those identities and had to follow Lin Zhen’s lead in many matters since maintaining the independence of individual countries on Earth wasn’t possible anymore in this interstellar age.

People in Hua Xia calmed down. Aside from some extremists, the vast majority chose to wait.

Above Capital Base City, countless spaceships prepared to leave. But only a few tens of thousands of Hua Xia people chose to leave among the billions, which amounted to a drop in the bucket.

Compared to Hua Xia, not many people from the African Union and Brazil left either. They maintained friendly relations with Hua Xia and responded to Lin Zhen and Hua Xia’s call, and not many left.

Recently, the European Union had become closer to Hua Xia. Although the number of people leaving was not small, it did not affect the overall situation.

In the United States, surprisingly few people left.

The massacre caused by Sky City in the United States led to the complete annihilation of the country’s top officials. They had a sense of rejection towards the Tianhe Army, so not many people left this time.

Only Sand Russia and India, these two countries’ top officials openly refuted Hua Xia and Lin Zhen, claiming they harbored malicious intentions and wanted to persecute the Earth’s people’s future.

During Lin Zhen’s identity distribution, the two countries received the least amount, and they were simply jealous of Lin Zhen without considering the reason for his actions.

They couldn’t defeat Lin Zhen, but they could at least leave, right?

They responded greatly to Diana’s call, and even under the leadership of higher-ups, a nationwide exodus began.

Countless people flooded towards New Delhi Base City and Moscow Base City.

People were packed like sardines!

Only such words could describe the situation in these two base cities, with over a hundred million people gathering in Moscow and over three hundred million in New Delhi Base City.

The explosive scene was somewhat out of control, and even incidents of stampeding and killing occurred multiple times.

Because the spaceships about to depart here obviously couldn’t accommodate so many people, in order to compete for front row seats, the former compatriots even resorted to fighting each other with lethal weapons.

“Lin Zhen, what kind of outcome do you think they’ll get?” At the control desk of the Black Pearl, Su Mingyue and An Ning stood beside Lin Zhen, and An Ning asked.

“Do I need to say it? Those who leave will definitely not survive. These people have no value in the galaxy, just like I said, they’re not even qualified to be slaves. I guess Diana’s people will kill them all in the starry space. They can only become cosmic dust.”

Su Mingyue covered her small mouth in surprise and said, “Why didn’t you stop them? If you’d been more specific with them, maybe many lives would have been saved.”

Lin Zhen rubbed Su Mingyue’s head: “Yue’er, you are very kind, but didn’t I say it? They didn’t believe me. Just look at Hua Xia and the other countries, many people have already stayed. I gave them the opportunity, but they still chose to leave. This is called seeking their own doom.”

“Yeah, Yue’er, don’t worry about these people. They all oppose Lin Zhen. Keeping them would be a source of instability. If they want to die, why should we worry about them?”

Su Mingyue inherently didn’t want to see too many people die, but when she heard that these people were against Lin Zhen, her attitude changed immediately.

Although she was kind, things became different when it came to Lin Zhen. Her man was still more important.

“Well, I won’t care about people who don’t like Lin Zhen.”

Lin Zhen couldn’t help but smile at Su Mingyue’s little appearance, gently hugging them both in his arms. As long as their loved ones were still there, it was enough.

Among the crowds at the two base cities, the advantages of the Martial Artists were apparent.

Some Warriors and War Generals stepped over people’s heads and charged towards the spaceships.

Tianhe Empire’s warriors who received the withdrawal orders guarded the order of the exits, too many undisciplined people had already fallen at their feet.

Even Martial Artists had to follow the rules here and enter the spaceship in an orderly manner.

Their entrance was the lower cabins of each spaceship, and the dark, gloomy environment was very poor.

Many people got injured on their way, some were injured by Mutated Beasts, and some even had broken bones.

They were sweating in pain, but their faces were still full of hope and excitement.

People were packed like sardines, and the smell of sweat and even the more unbearable smell of excrement came into the air, but no one cared. This problem was nothing compared to leaving Earth.

People enthusiastically discussed what kind of beautiful planet they would go to and that they might find some extraterrestrial spouses and start a completely new life.

Outside the spaceship, the departure time in three hours got closer and closer.

When it was two hours and fifty minutes away, people on the spaceship were informed that the cabin would be closed in ten minutes, and all those who had received the order to return would have to leave.

Meanwhile, in the square, countless people were still there, and when they heard that the spaceship was leaving, the order that was maintained moments ago suddenly turned into chaos.

People behind madly surged forward, and those in front were helpless, either trampled to death or pushed towards the cabin.

The guarding soldiers didn’t care about this. As soon as someone rushed in, their butcher knives would be raised high and swung fiercely!

And at this moment, the muzzles on the spaceship opened, and bursts of bullets and energy beams swept into the frenzied crowd, stirring up a bloody storm.

People fell like harvested wheat in large numbers, and blood flowed like rivers!

The frenzied crowd was deterred and finally dared not to assault the spaceship anymore.

When the departure time came, the packed spaceship finally lifted off the ground.

Those people from Earth, watching the ground slowly recede, waved frantically, crying and laughing, in front of the small windows of the cabin.

Compared to those who couldn’t squeeze onto the spaceship, they were fortunate. They were finally leaving, going to pursue a new life. Goodbye, Earth!

Goodbye, that hateful Lin Zhen!
