September 29, 2060.

Humanity has been preparing for this moment for almost a year.

Firstly, it is to ensure that the human army does not suffer significant losses.

Secondly, it was to comprehensively consider post-war reconstruction plans, and how to make reasonable plans based on geographical location, climate, and other factors after those territories were recaptured.

Then, the battle plan is adjusted based on the details of this plan.

For example, if a particular soil environment is suitable for cultivating Zhu Fruit), then they must avoid damaging and polluting the local ecological environment with missile fuel.

There are also new urban construction, road planning, and the subdivision of various industries such as industry, agriculture, and animal husbandry. Considering these things now will avoid many troubles in subsequent adjustments.

Now, the time has finally come.

Lin Yan held a document in his hand, flipped through it, and then asked, "So it's decided that all Base City will launch a joint all-out attack on the Wilderness Area at 3:00 AM Tianjing time every day?"

Jia Yi nodded and said, "Yes, our 'Sky Bow System' will launch a long-range attack on the designated target location to eliminate a large number of Beast Soldier. We have also made other preparations to lure those Beast Soldiers to gather at our designated target location."

The Sky Bow System mentioned by Jia Yi was established for the purpose of counterattacking the Wilderness Area.

The Sky Wall System is the Base City's defense system, while the Sky Bow System is the attack system for the Wilderness Area.

Numerous missiles will be launched from various war bases and military districts in the Base City to bombard the area, first clearing out the low-level monsters.

Then, the flying fighter jets will immediately enter the Wilderness Area to detect signs of monster life, with the Sky Bow System providing overall coordination and remote support.

—At all costs!

Then, human armies and armored vehicles equipped with Laser Cannon advanced into the Wilderness Area to completely wipe out the monsters.

There are now nearly four hundred Planetary level powerhouses, most of whom will be heading out with the army. The number of S-rank Laser Gun exceeds ten thousand, so there is practically no pressure at all.

Today, the microcosm of this era, the racial war between humans and monsters, has come to an end.

Lin Yan closed the file and smiled, "I'm looking forward to it."

"Me too." Jia Yi's expression was somewhat excited.

He has gone from a young man in his twenties to nearly seventy years old. Although Planetary level has a lifespan of a thousand years, the path he has walked and the days of blood and fire have long been indelible in his life.

He had been waiting for this for far too long.

Even recently, he has been dreaming of his fallen comrades, their faces stained with blood, edged with gold by the sunlight, all laughing.

I dreamt of Earth before the Great Nirvana period, on a peaceful afternoon, where the potted plants were lush and green, and an old man was taking a nap in the house.

They also dreamed of the new world they would create with their own hands.

The dream that had remained unfulfilled for so many years has finally blossomed and borne fruit!

Jia Yi looked excited and changed the subject. "However, there is one more thing that you need to do personally."

Lin Yan looked at him with some confusion.

Jia Yi smiled and said, "Tomorrow, we will announce this news to all mankind. As the strongest person on Earth and the highest level of humanity, this matter should naturally be handled by you."

Looking at the young man before him, Jia Yi felt a surge of pride and honor.

He had done many commendable things in his life, but the most noteworthy of mention was that at the end of July 2056, he went to the Northern Military Region of Tianjing Base City and met an 18-year-old young man.

He saw the young man's excellence and therefore gave him trust, care, and expectations.

I only valued Lin Yan's future.

But unexpectedly, this is how humanity's future came about.

The next day.

Hong, Thunder God, and leaders from various countries gathered in Tianjing Base City.

Starting at noon, all television channels in various countries broadcast the same content, showing the armaments of major war bases in different countries, along with introductions, analyses, and discussions by various military experts.

Looking at the massive war base on TV, the menacing armored vehicles, the missile launch sites ready to go, and the soldiers standing at attention, people began to speculate.

The topic is being hotly debated on online forums around the world.

"I mean, does this mean they're really planning to take action against the monsters in the Wilderness Area?"

"According to the expert analysis, we have a very good chance of winning! I hope we can wipe out those beasts as soon as possible!"

"I feel it's still too risky. There are just too many monsters. If we launch a counterattack, it will definitely trigger another worldwide monster tide. It's better to wait a bit longer."

"Wait for what! Last year's Sea Region monsters were so arrogant, but we still managed to drive them back, didn't we? The Devouring Beast and the two Beast Emperors were all killed. We have Lin Yan, Hong, and Thunder God, what are we afraid of?"

"Yeah, what's there to be afraid of!"

"I hope we can get confirmation soon, I'm getting really anxious waiting."

In the courtyard.

The surrounding world was faintly filled with crisscrossing electric snakes, and the Thunder God in the domain held a purplish-black Black Battle Saber, the blade of which was also wrapped with electric snakes, making it seem like Divine Spirit Weapon.

Thunder God himself moved swiftly, leaving a blur as he pounced forward, his Black Battle Saber unleashing a Thunderbolt of lightning!

"Hahahaha..." Hong laughed heartily.

With a sudden flick of the spear tip, it swept forward as if unleashing a thousand waves. At the same time, the Conception this spear technique merged directly into the Darkness Domain, like a terrifying vortex in the darkness, directly engulfing the white-robed monk Lei Thunder God before him.

Without any hesitation, Thunder God's War Blade slashed eight times into the vortex in an instant, while the Lightning Domain surrounding him continued to expand.

"Boom!"

The two sides separated after a single collision!

The two did not continue fighting, but walked to the pavilion next to them. Lin Yan sat on the stone bench, looking very relaxed.

"Lin Yan, the secret techniques you taught us are truly remarkable. We have benefited immensely from them during this time."

Thunder God strode over and sat down on the stone bench as well.

Hong nodded. "Compared to this secret manual, the manuals we created before are far inferior."

"There's no comparison at all."

Lin Yan laughed and said, "There's no need to thank me. This is the inheritance that Luo Feng obtained. If you want to thank him, wait until he comes out of seclusion to thank him."

Hong and Thunder God have excellent comprehension, but Earthling are not good at it and do not have a master, so their progress is slow.

Lin Yan couldn't bear to watch them waste their time, so he sought Luo Feng and Babata's consent to let them join the Yun Mo lineage and gave them secret cultivation techniques for martial artists.

However, what they are given for now is only for laying the foundation. The advanced secrets will be taught to them by Babata after they complete the apprenticeship ceremony.

Because Luo Feng's Earthling Clone had not yet been formed, he was falsely accused of being in seclusion.

Hong asked, "Is Luo Feng going into seclusion for this long this time?"

"It'll be soon, probably in the next two or three months," Lin Yan replied.

Luo Feng is still fishing in the Sea Region.

His identity as the Golden Horn Beast should not be exposed, so he could only be sent into the Sea Region.

Immediately afterwards, Hong and Thunder God consulted Lin Yan about issues related to physical exertion and domain. They were used to figuring things out on their own, but they had never fought such a rich battle in their lives!

To be able to learn profound martial arts cultivation secrets, and to have such a great master to consult.

Lin Yan's current level makes it easy for him to give them pointers. He Stellar level one, has reached the fifth level of the domain, and has 25 times the physical strength. He is much stronger than them.

After a while, Jia Yi came over.

"The global live broadcast is about to begin, let's go over there first."

They were to announce their crucial decision to launch a counterattack on the Wilderness Area at 5 p. m., and the time was almost up.

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan and the other two stood up and rushed to the venue with Jia Yi. They took their seats, with Lin Yan sitting in the center of the stage. Because of the occasion, he was still wearing his military uniform.

There were many reporters in the audience, but no one dared to make a sound; the atmosphere was orderly.

The live news broadcast on television has already turned its camera to the main venue.

The host's voice-over, following the camera's movement, solemnly introduces the identities of everyone on the stage.

In fact, most viewers are already familiar with their identities.

"The camera is now focused on Hong, the Head Curator of the Limit Martial Hall School, and Thunder God, the Head Curator of the Thunderclap Martial Arts School. They have made outstanding contributions to humanity since the Great Nirvana period, and are also the initiators of the Earth Federation Council."

The monster is about to be defeated, and the Tianxin Dew is enough to ignite a wave of martial arts among the entire nation.

The previous War God Palace framework is no longer applicable.

Due to changes in the social situation, the War God Palace was reorganized, and Hong and Thunder God initiated the establishment of the "Earth Federation Council," with the five major nations and the Two Great Dojos serving as permanent council members.

The Heaven Department has obtained the highest law enforcement authority in the world and has strengthened the supervision of social order.

Lin Yan was not as kind as Luo Feng in the original work. He did not want any unpleasant problems to occur in the process of Earth's contact with Cosmic civilization, and he also needed to fully integrate the existing social productivity. Therefore, he took the initiative to intervene in this matter.

They must not cause trouble for themselves for at least the next ten years.

The camera finally focused on the center of the stage, and the host's voice became louder. "Finally, we have Lin Yan, the first Speaker of the 'Earth Federation Council,' the world's strongest individual, and the founder of the Heaven Department."

When Lin Yan's image appeared on the screen, many people in the martial arts halls or on the streets cheered as they watched the big screen.

His experiences are truly legendary.

He became the most powerful person in the world at the age of 22, was perfect in every way, and had a legendary feat of killing the Devouring Beast and saving the world.

This has resulted in him having many fans in various countries, with a particularly large proportion among young people.

As the speaker, Lin Yan does not usually participate in parliamentary resolutions; these are mainly discussed by representatives of the seven permanent council seats. However, his words are strictly implemented.

"Now, Speaker Lin Yan will announce some important news." During the live broadcast, the host finally got to the point.

The vast majority of people on Earth are watching this scene.

Lin Yan stood up, his gaze calm. "I am Lin Yan. I am very happy to be standing here today to announce this exciting news to everyone."

"At this moment, in 23 Base City and major war bases on Earth, we are making final adjustments to our weapons and equipment. In ten hours, at 3:00 AM tomorrow, Tianjing time, we will launch a general offensive against the monsters in the Wilderness Area!"

The moment he finished speaking, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

Although many people had guessed it, no one expected it to happen so quickly, and that it would be a full-scale operation.

Lin Yan said, "Quiet."

The room fell silent immediately.

Lin Yan continued, "This is the common ideal of several generations, and it is also the goal that several generations have worked hard and struggled for together."

"The period from 2013 to 2021 was Great Nirvana period in human Human history."

"Before the Great Nirvana period, there were more than two hundred countries and regions in the world. Now, there are only five major powers and 23 cities in the world."

"In just eight years, nearly three billion people have died. Since then, we have faced the constant threat of monsters. There are no fewer than 120 monster tides every year around the world, which have cost the lives of countless soldiers and caused enormous losses."

Lin Yan's tone was heavy.

"This is the blood and tears of humankind! Fellow countrymen, we have endured nearly fifty years of suffering and resentment. All that hatred and pain will be repaid at this moment."

His eyes brightened. "We will have a world where the sun shines and everything comes back to life. We will build our new cities on those ruins and write our new chapter."

"In our history, we have experienced too many hardships, but none can compare to our current situation. Humanity has never faced such misfortune or hardship. But we will soon emerge from this shadow. This chapter will be forever etched in history, telling our descendants and our children about humanity's courage, fearlessness, and unwavering resilience!"

"We want to plant flowers on that wasteland, sunflowers, roses, anything will do, so that children can play and frolic freely on that land, and they will have a brighter future!"

Lin Yan said loudly, "So are we."

"Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this day, thank you to our heroes who sacrificed their lives, and thank you to every ordinary person who strives to live a good life in these 23 Base City."

"I want you to see the grandest fireworks display ever, for the world to see, for the Baby's Breath to see, and for the fallen heroes to see!"

Lin Yan's voice was loud and clear!

No one will forget this scene; they will remember it forever. The man's eyes seemed to transcend time and see the future of the world.

He exclaimed, "Our new world has arrived!"

"Our dream has come true."

Lin Yan's words quickly went viral online and in real life, causing a huge impact.

Countless people were overjoyed.

"We want to reclaim our old lands, we want to see our cities and our country rebuilt on that wasteland."

We will win!

No one can sleep tonight; everyone is waiting for that moment to arrive.

On that day, people saw countless dazzling meteors rise from the top of the twenty-three Base City, streak across the sky, and fall into the silent wilderness.

Grand, dazzling, deadly.

A deafening roar, a cry to protest the injustices of the world!

The ancient moonlight witnessed the people's perseverance for over forty years, their blood and tears, and their longing day and night for over forty years, all of which must be released in this moment.

It quietly sank into the western mountains, and the long night was about to end.
