The news that the Qin Empire’s garrison in Krohoka surrendered unconditionally to the Human Federation spread throughout most of the galaxy through the media and quantum communication network in just a few days. It can be said that except for those who are closed to the outside world, they are no longer interested in disputes between civilizations. Outside the fallen empire, even the lowest workers and slaves in various countries have discussed it as a topic after dinner.

Depending on their different views on the Human Federation, the major civilized empires and their people have different reactions to this matter. There are even obvious differences in the attitude of some empires towards the Human Federation.

Take the United Nations of Earth as an example. Although the top management can basically maintain a unified voice, they remain silent on the fact that their former compatriots successfully challenged power. Diplomats are carefully balancing the pressure from all sides in the Star Sea Community, so that some empires that have good relations with the Earth Alliance understand the difference between the Earth Alliance and the Human Alliance.

For those human ambassadors who are in a foreign country, in order to quell the commotion caused by rumors on the galactic Internet and disperse the aliens who staged demonstrations in front of the embassy, ​​they have to reiterate those who have been said countless times. The so-called "equal diplomacy" is widespread.

The United Nations of Earth is a peace- and freedom-loving country, and its strong military strength is only to protect its own interests from infringement. Unless necessary, the Earth Alliance will never take the lead in launching a war for the purpose of aggression against other countries. This is a diplomatic principle that has been followed since the founding of the Earth Alliance.

Seeing that the officials of the Ground Federation have said this, they just announced the severance of diplomatic relations with the People's Federation. Some neighboring countries finally felt relieved and no longer considered whether to cut off their trade relations with the Federation.

As a result, the aliens were satisfied, but the humans within the Earth Alliance, especially the capital Earth, were not so happy.

As one of the most open planets in the galaxy, there are hundreds of alien races and countless ideological sects on the earth. The local people's tolerance and absorption of the cultures of various countries have been praised by critics in the galaxy. "The greatest miracle since the birth of wisdom."

So much so that you can see on the same street at the same time the gentle and graceful scholar who can talk but never do anything; the owner of the Hazbuzan bakery who does business seriously and never lacks goods; the man who trims flowers and plants with a long knife, The Kol-Azan gardener who likes to eat vegetarian food is an anomaly.

They are called "freaks" in their respective hometowns. Because they are not gregarious, they cross the vast sea of ​​​​stars and come to the earth in order to find their own life and the freedom without interference.

It's a pity that such popular aliens only account for a very small number of the huge immigrant group, and more alien aliens who come to Earth have different purposes. Among them are agents and spies who steal intelligence, speakers who preach niche values, black market traders and gang members who smuggle chemical addictive substances.

There is no doubt that human beings born and raised on the earth do not want to wake up to a masked alien at home holding a knife to their necks and demanding property. In the end, they were taken away by the police as citizens of the Earth Alliance and taken away. Accept a fair trial in court.

"If all the food we produce ends up in their stomachs, and all the clothes we produce are worn on their bodies, then what is the purpose of our hard work to build the earth and expand the universe? Are we providing meticulous services to the alien gentlemen? ?”

"Why can they easily obtain citizenship issued by the United Nations and then become corporate employees or even join the army! But I have to collect relief funds all day long to survive?! Is the Earth Federation still a country established by humans?!"

Some human people who were interviewed by reporters from the World Group and protested against the excessive welfare treatment given to alien immigrants by the federal government said this in front of the camera.

It is obvious that the diplomatic compromise and weakness of the Federation government this time finally burned out the last fuse among the people, leaving those who were expecting President Dolores to respond strongly to other countries' doubts disheartened.

When that weak flame turned into a raging fire with the help of thoughtful people, countless angry people took to the streets holding slogans and banners in support of the Human Federation. However, among the forest of banners, the ones erected no longer represented all mankind. Unity, blue ball flag with earth and wheat ears.

What caught the police's eyes were streaks of dazzling blood red and heavy iron black.

In the center of the flag, lifelike black eagles are about to spread their wings and soar, and the disappearing golden wheat ears seem to have become their strong wings.

Above the flag, the tip as sharp as a spear points straight to the sky, full of a chilling atmosphere; below the flag, the dark red tassel flowing down like a waterfall symbolizes the supreme force of the People's Federation and the blood required for the rise of civilization.

In an instant, the military police who came to suppress the demonstration had a ridiculous illusion in their minds - they were not on the earth, but on the United Star, the capital of the People's Alliance thousands of light years away. If they strike hard at these passionate compatriots today, the future of the Ground Alliance may really be as gloomy as the protesters say.

Standing on the steel city wall that had been pulled up in advance, the capital garrison officer in charge of this area looked down with complicated eyes, carefully examining the parade under his feet that was still growing in size due to the influx of people.

He saw the sneaky figures in the crowd. Some human thugs not only had banners and flags in their hands, but also Molotov cocktails and sharp swords that shone with cold light.

Faced with the roar and abuse of the crowd, he clenched his fists, but soon loosened them.

"We must not let them pass! Don't forget the education and training you have received. Our duty is to protect the personal and property safety of every citizen. Whether they are worthy or not is not something we should consider!"

Encouraging his somewhat shaken companions, the officer shook his head and shouted loudly with the loudspeaker at his mouth: "Hello fellow citizens! I am Captain Ben Fletcher of the Capital Garrison. I wish you all the best." Understandable, but violence is not the only way to solve the problem! We must believe in President Dolores!"

Unexpectedly, the protesters who were about to die became even more excited after hearing this name. The spearheads in their words that were originally aimed at the alien race were pointed at Dolores Muwanga, the so-called democratically elected president.

In the end, thousands of words come together in one place. At some point, thousands of protesters in the crowded crowd started chanting the same slogan.

"Muwanga must step down! We don't need a president who speaks for aliens!"

Seeing that the situation was rapidly intensifying, Captain Fletcher also felt a little panicked for a moment - he was trained on how to kill the enemy better and faster, and appeasing the parade was not what a professional soldier like him was good at.

Since the protesters were given sufficient preparation time, the seven- to eight-meter-high blast-proof city wall was no longer safe at this time. Because at the end of the crowd, a series of improvised heightened ladders were being pushed forward.

Obviously it won't be long before these extremely dangerous protesters can use them to climb over the high wall and enter the area behind the captain to smash up the shops of alien citizens, burn down their houses, and even take away their lives.

"Damn it, fire tear gas! Quick!"

Without thinking about who made those ladders, the captain made a snap decision and ordered the soldiers and police on the city wall to start firing tear gas into the crowd, hoping to disperse it. At the same time, he evacuated all alien immigrants in nearby cities to avoid accidents. As for the possible consequences of this series of actions, he completely forgot about them.

Fletcher didn't know it at this time, but there were many places where demonstrations and riots of the same or larger scale had broken out like his. Following the crisis of confidence that triggered the Third World War a hundred years ago, the crisis was once again spreading everywhere on the earth. There was heavy smoke.

After knowing what kind of turmoil was happening on the planet beneath their feet through the news media of the World Group, billions of anxious alien immigrants chose to leave their homes, stay away from humans in various ways, and huddle together for warmth.

A considerable number of them also poured into the starship parking lot. The chaotic crowds, like landslides and tsunamis, indirectly affected the normal passenger and cargo transportation on the earth, causing the federal government to temporarily shut down most routes to avoid this planet-level disaster. The riots received intervention from the outside world.

When some of the wealthier immigrants took private space shuttles to the orbital star port and tried to take refuge, the navy warships parked in the dock and ready to go undoubtedly declared the United Nations Parliament's view of this disaster.

"The riots will eventually subside! The earth is still the common home of intelligent life in the entire galaxy!"

Standing in the magnificent holographic lecture hall, Federation of Lands President Dolores Muwanga faced more cameras and unfamiliar faces from reporters than Lieutenant General Wolfgang at the time. Her voice was calm, without even a single word. A little bit of panic or timidity.

At the end of her speech, she announced that the Earth's United Nations Navy would officially intervene in this unprecedented riot. The brave and fearless Earth Alliance army would wipe out all demons and demons, and restore peace to the earth.

A few days later, as the storm sweeping the world gradually subsided, people looked up at the stars again in the ruins of cities destroyed by fire. What appeared in their pupils was no longer satisfaction and hope, but the ability of ships even if they stayed high in the sky. I could vaguely catch a glimpse of the cold giant ship.

When the riot reached its climax, they saw the nearly three thousand-meter-long United Nations Millennium Fleet flagship "Excalibur". The opponent's astonishing weight does not even allow it to get too close to the surface, and it can only be parked in low orbit to serve as a temporary command center for the suppression operation.

As a "Doolittle"-class heavy space carrier built by the Antony Industries Group, the largest arms manufacturer in the Earth Alliance, the failure of the Ulysses Ark project made the group's warship designers obsessed with strengthening the ship's protection. , so the King's Sword's armor is even thicker than the battleships of many civilized empires.

This super battleship with an elegant and slender body and a cost of hundreds of billions of credits was once the best talking point for bragging between Earth Alliance humans and alien races.

At that time, they not only had no doubt about the power of this battleship, but they also never thought about whether they would one day be trampled on and ravaged by the space fighters and numerous forts that emerged from her like a swarm of locusts.

Again, protesters were pushed to the ground by heavily armed soldiers.

But what was different from the past was that this time there was no trace of pride in their eyes as they looked into the sky.

Those figures that cover the sky are enemies.
