Zhou Zhezhi's Guess

As it turns out, Alvin always kept his word.

He didn't care at all about the verbal threats from these countries, and he didn't care about these billions of people!

At this moment, he seemed to understand why the Emperor had carried out so many massacres during the Unification Wars in order to recover lost territories and win back the hearts of the people.

Some people are just awful!

If you don't kill them until they're terrified and submit, they'll always jump out and challenge your authority!

Once or twice is fine, but if it happens too often, these people will really think they can control you. So you have to nip this kind of thinking in the bud and completely eliminate it!

Boom!

A single beam of light fired from a warship tens of kilometers in diameter could obliterate an entire nation.

It left behind a charred sinkhole!

Alvin kept his promise. From east to west, one country after another, any country that dared to provoke or threaten him, was reduced to ashes by the Macro Cannon Array of his warships!

The terrifying smoke and dust, along with the raging air currents, resembled a giant tornado, shooting straight into the sky!

The ferocious flames burned fiercely, billowing smoke rising like black Daemon, lurking in the sky, accompanied by howling hurricanes, emitting chilling, sinister laughs!

"No, don't kill him!"

"Please, Mr. Alvin, don't kill us! Don't kill us! We surrender!"

"My country, oh my god-"

Just a few tens of minutes ago, representatives from 233 countries were sitting here, but in those short few tens of minutes, some people have completely lost their countries.

The number of member states in the coalition has plummeted from 233 to 190!

Forty-three countries, nearly a billion people, simply vanished, completely erased from existence by the Macrocannon fire of that cathedral-like warship!

The representatives of the alliance member states below were truly terrified; they were completely terrified by Alvin's audacity and chilling methods!

At this moment, Alvin proved the value of his veto power with his actions!

Either you agree.

Either we kill you until you agree!

Politics is an art of compromise, but many people forget that the prerequisite for this compromise is that they must possess the power to match it.

The nation, incited by the hoopoe, finally woke up after witnessing Alvin's swift, cruel, and tyrannical massacre.

Who else?

Alvin looked at them calmly. "Those who have opinions about me, I'm giving you this opportunity. You can all stand up now."

For a moment, the Joint Parliament Hall was filled with trepidation!

Just moments ago, the representatives from various countries were indignant under the instigation of the hoopoe, but now they are like cowards, wishing they could go back in time and strangle their past selves!

Looking at the silent representatives of the nations, Alvin frowned and sneered, "Not speaking means you still have objections, right?"

"No, no, no, we have no objections!"

"No objections! No objections!"

"We firmly support all decisions made by the High Councilor of the Holy Terra Alliance Council!"

The people, already terrified, rushed to express their loyalty, fearing that if they were even a step too slow, they would displease this killer and bring disaster upon their own country!

"So—regarding the previous issue, we can continue voting on retaining Xia Kingdom's five seats in the Holy Terra Alliance." Alvin spoke casually, as if nothing had happened, and smiled, "We have a parliamentary system, everyone should vote fairly, no objections, right?"

No! Absolutely not!

"Vote now!"

"I agree that Xia Kingdom's seat should be retained!"

Soon, the voting results showed a unanimous vote of 190:0, with no one objecting.

Opponents?

Ah, those who opposed him are already gone to meet God!

"Very good, next is the second item on the agenda."

Alvin tapped his index finger and said calmly, "Regarding the Planetary Engine modification plan, MOSS has already designed the initial draft, which has been completed through international cooperation. I don't want to see any more infighting among you before humanity faces a great crisis. Do you understand?"

"Clear!"

"Please rest assured, High Councilor, we will unite as one to help humanity overcome this crisis!"

The crowd below readily agreed, patting their chests and assuring him that there would be no more infighting!

Parliament adjourned.

Alvin's projection disappeared from the council chamber.

However, that terrifying atmosphere lingered in everyone's hearts, making it difficult for them to escape. Looking at the bodies lying in pools of blood, it was as if an invisible hand was gripping their necks!

Each body here represents the demise of a nation and millions of its inhabitants!

On stage, Mike gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, and glared at Zhou Zhezhi: "Zhou, did you already know?!"

Throughout the entire ordeal, Zhou Zhezhi remained calm, even when being accused, he showed no signs of agitation. How could this not arouse his suspicion?!

Looking at his old friend, Zhou Zhezhi nodded. "Yes, I knew all along."

"Why didn't you say so sooner?!" Mike stared at him in horror, feeling as if his old friend had become a complete stranger. "Do you know that he—killed a billion people?!"

"If I told you, would you believe me?"

Zhou Zhezhi stared at him silently, his eyes seemingly able to see through people's hearts. "No, you won't believe it. You're only thinking about seizing more say and power here, instead of considering how to help humanity overcome this crisis."

These words seemed to pierce Mike's heart. His face turned extremely pale, but after a long silence, he said with a helpless expression, "Zhou, this is a matter between countries. I—? I can't change their minds."

"I see."

Zhou Zhezhi smiled and said, "I don't blame you, but I want to advise you that from now on, the concept of a nation no longer exists; we are all human beings."

Mike pondered the words for a moment, then nodded as if he understood. "I will convey your message to the people at the White House, Zhou."

"Xiaoxi, let's go."

Zhou Zhezhi.

"Yes, teacher." Witnessing the destruction of dozens of countries filled Hao Xiaoxi with mixed feelings, a mixture of joy and satisfaction, but moral constraints prevented her from expressing them.

Watching Zhou Zhezhi being pushed away in his wheelchair, Mike suddenly spoke up, "Zhou, for the sake of our many years of friendship, tell me—what exactly is the situation with those warships and soldiers?!"

Zhou Zhezhi stopped, and after a moment, slowly said, "Before the joint council began, Mr. Alvin approached me and asked me to do a few things for him—and then, these people suddenly appeared."

He was also pondering what connection Liu Peiqiang, Zhang Peng, Ma Zhao, and Tu Hengyu had with Alvin.

Zhou Zhezhi intuition.

Alvin seemed to know the world they inhabited very well, and he paid close attention to these people, including himself!
