"Whether you are alien or Zerg! We still have value to you, and we have numerous resources on the Blue Star that can be mobilized to assist you!"
"Tsk, tsk," Noah said disdainfully, "you’re really overestimating yourselves. Humans are nothing but our food."
"Do you really think you can develop Noah’s Ark so quickly with your technology?"
"Your greatest use is to confuse those bugs. None of them know that while they’re still fighting for territory on Blue Star, I, Noah, have already taken the lead in occupying the Moon and Mars!"
On the ground, Vice President Belinda spoke to the wealthy observers gathered to watch the launch of the spaceship: "Everyone, our Noah’s Ark has successfully headed to Mars."
"There’s no need to worry, the second-generation Noah’s Ark will soon be completed, and we will send more onwards to the new home!"
"Clap, clap, clap..." The crowd burst into applause, gazing at the sky, filled with hope for the future.
In the Sakura Trench, Ye Jiesha returned here with his defeated remnants.
"Failed again, Ye Jiesha, this is the second time!" A nuclear energy beam evaporated half of Ye Jiesha’s body.
Ye Jiesha, with half his body remaining, wasn’t dead yet and pleaded in agony, "My king, this time the Da Ao of the South Pacific Insect Nest was killed by humans, causing us to fail by a hair’s breadth!"
"Moreover, human technology has advanced significantly; I suspect someone is secretly assisting them!"
"These beings, to be so low as to cooperate with the crawlers?" the voice was filled with disdain.
Ye Jiesha continued, "My king, you cannot wait any longer! We’ve defended our activities along the Pacific coast several times, but our development speed is far too slow."
"If we continue to wait, this planet will fall into their hands, and we will face danger as well!"
"I have obtained intelligence that reveals there are several human-built nuclear energy bases nearby on Sakura Island; if you occupy them, you’ll be able to continuously absorb energy to evolve!"
"Then, we’ll seize the land in Asia, occupy the Pacific Ocean, and you will have the chance to evolve into a Planet Dominator!"
"Let’s do it. When the next batch of warriors hatch, we’ll completely take over Sakura Island!" the voice commanded.
In Shen Zhou, He Xingzhou announced that the Xuanwu Plan was about to enter its third phase.
For this, various departments mobilized once again, working together to prepare for the third phase.
And during this break, He Xingzhou took a rare two-day rest to do some other things.
Such as attending the first Tower Research Award ceremony; and also, He Xingzhou’s sister, He Mengyao, was finally graduating from university, and according to the agreement with her brother, she would enlist in the army and pursue further studies and work in the research department.
At Jiangcheng University, it’s graduation season once again.
In the Artificial Intelligence Technology program, all students had attended the graduation ceremony in the morning.
In the afternoon, they were taking commemorative photos around campus, making the most of their last gathering.
He Xingzhou’s sister, He Mengyao, was one of them.
In a corner of the school’s sports ground, classmates had just taken their group photos.
They sat on the artificial turf, reminiscing about their college years while looking forward to the future.
"I’m going straight to work after graduation," Mengyao’s roommate Shen Beibei said. "I’ll start making money early and become independent."
"I want to take the civil service exam!" another roommate, Cao Ya, said.
"I plan to continue my postgraduate studies; you guys know that." Roommate Yao Liwen added before asking Mengyao, "Mengyao, what are your plans? Have you decided?"
"I’m going to enlist!" Mengyao announced surprisingly, and her roommates and classmates all gathered around.
"Really? The gorgeous girl is enlisting?" A male classmate asked, "It’s dangerous to join the military now with the Zergs involved!"
"Yes, indeed, Mengyao," Shen Beibei advised, "Why not find a standard job like me and stay inland?"
"Are you serious?" Cao Ya asked in amazement, given the increased recruitment in the Xuanwu Army, there indeed were many university students enlisting.
Most of them were boys, though, with fewer girls. Especially since Mengyao was recognized as a beautiful academic prodigy at the university, people imagined she would choose a comfortable and easy life.
Mengyao tossed her hair and said, "I know! But I still want to enlist. I studied AI technology, and now military weapons are fully intelligent, my knowledge can be well-utilized."
"Besides, I want to follow in my brother’s footsteps, I want to help him!"
"Your brother is also doing this?" someone asked.
"There it is!" hearing Mengyao’s words, Yao Liwen sighed, "You’ve been talking about this brother of yours for four years in university, yet we’ve never seen him!"
"Exactly!" everyone nodded.
"You’ve seen him!" Mengyao responded resignedly, "I’ve told you before, my brother is He Xingzhou, but you just don’t believe!"
"Tsk..." Naturally, no one believed, "We’ve never heard that He Xingzhou has a sister!"
"Yes, if your brother were He Xingzhou, the entire school would be treating you like royalty!"
Mengyao shrugged and said, "It’s already graduation, I’m laying it all out, you can doubt if you want. My brother will come pick me up soon anyway."
