Surrender!

Soon, the blue light on the probe platform faded, becoming increasingly faint until it was no longer visible to the naked eye.

But it has already served its purpose.

The dark energy on Pluto suddenly fluctuated and then spread outwards.

This dark energy probe wave was extremely fast, forming a semi-circle centered on Pluto, and traveling at speeds exceeding that of light towards the edge of the Kuiper Belt.

Pluto was already inside the Kuiper Belt, just over ten minutes later.

Dark energy probes perpendicular to the edge of Pluto swept across the edge of the Kuiper Belt and continued to extend outwards.

At this moment.

The host's voice then came from the giant, starry screen-like display.

"Fellow citizens of the Federation, look! Our probe has crossed the Kuiper Belt and reached beyond the Solar System; it continues its journey beyond the Star Sea."

In the picture.

After the probe waves passed through the Kuiper Belt, the converted image transitioned from a vast asteroid cloud to the boundless darkness of deep space.

According to scientists' calculations, it would take a very long time to reach other star systems if they continued to explore further, and this vast and dark scene would continue indefinitely.

This will be a boring and tedious process; I doubt anyone will have the patience to watch it all the way through.

In any case, the purpose of this live stream across the entire internet has been achieved.

The host then changed the subject and prepared to end the live stream.

"Federation citizens, do you see this? This is a crucial step for our Blue Star Civilization as we step out of the Solar System and into the universe. From Blue Star to the Moon, from the Moon to Mars, from Mars... until today, when we landed on Pluto, saw the edge of the Kuiper Belt, and saw the true edge of the Solar System —how exciting this is! I believe... Well then, this live broadcast will end here..."

Just as the host was about to say "the end".

The previously dark and quiet screen suddenly lit up with a dazzling red light; this was the alarm program set up in the detector.

The next second, a series of alarms blared throughout the live broadcast room.

"Warn!"

"Warn!"

"A large amount of energy has been detected!"

"Unknown life force detected!"

The next moment.

In the picture.

A vast and boundless interstellar fleet appeared in the dark and empty depths of space, right before the eyes of all the people of Blue Star!

In the live stream, the barrage of "Long live the Federation" comments disappeared and changed instantly.

An atmosphere of panic pervaded the entire Blue Star.

"What's this?!"

"An interstellar fleet? Damn, could it be an alien civilization?"

"What is this, a prank?"

"No, the Federation Government wouldn't be joking with us, would it?"

Is this true?

"It's not April Fool's Day today!"

I don't believe it!

"Is Human Civilization doomed to extinction?!"

"This is what they mean by turning the light on and off instantly?!"

"Once the blind box is opened, everyone's doomed?!"

"Is the moment of equality for all beings about to arrive?"

The unexpected turn of events, which was broadcast live across the entire internet, alarmed the highest levels of the Federation Government. The Federation officials of the Civilization Council were no less shocked than ordinary people.

Fortunately, the Speaker of the Federation Parliament remained calm. He summoned his Secretary-General and gave him instructions.

"Go and consult with the old master, King Ji, and ask him what to do."

As the Speaker of the Federation, he knew many secrets; Human Civilization has its own inherent foundation.

Despite his outward composure, he was uncertain about the outcome of this unexpected turn of events.

He still needs that ancestor to give him courage.

soon.

The secretary returned with a beaming smile and whispered in his ear.

"Elder Ji said, 'Don't be afraid, keep the live stream going. There are people guarding the edge of the Solar System; this alien civilization's fleet can't get in.'"

"Oh, right, our ancestor also said that later, when we split the screen, one of the screens will show the view from these coordinates on the Watchman Probe..."

"A cataclysmic change is imminent. This time, let all of humanity adapt first!"

Upon hearing this, the Federation Speaker breathed a sigh of relief. He carefully considered the Human King's words and then spoke.

"Tell the two hosts not to panic, keep the live broadcast going, and say we were prepared!"

"Yes!"

"Also, let's tell the councilors this news."

"Also, keep good records; some people are just too ugly."

"Yes, Speaker!"

at the same time.

That was the massive, boundless interstellar fleet that appeared in the dark energy detection images.

On the main ship.

Inside the command center at the very front.

A humanoid intelligent being stood on the bridge, looking down at the entire Solar System through the huge transparent window in front of him.

A slightly short, humanoid intelligent being stood respectfully behind him and reported.

"Your Highness, we have detected dark energy probe waves emitted by this Solar System civilization. They are extremely primitive. Should we shield them?"

"Shield?"

The captain chuckled.

"Why bother blocking such a backward civilization?"

"Let them see!"

"Our Duo'os Civilization is not like those crude civilizations. Before a civilization perishes, we must let them know why they died!"

"Your Highness, it seems this civilization is the first to use dark energy to probe the universe beyond its home star system, and it's being broadcast live across the entire internet!"

"They must have all seen us arrive!"

"Fun! So fun!"

Prince Doos smiled.

"In this way, we first analyze their language, and then seize control of their media."

Ask them if they would be willing to be slaves of us Daosians.

"Yes, Your Highness, that's all I have to do!"

The diminutive Daosians immediately returned to the blue-glowing command hall to relay the prince's orders.

So very quickly.

In the Federation's Federation broadcast room on Blue Star, the image of the massive Doos fleet occupying the vast expanse of deep space suddenly disappeared, replaced by a Daosians with a blue face and four eyes.

Besides the live stream room.

All the online media on Blue Star, the advertising screens on the streets, the super-large screens on the sides of skyscrapers, and even the small TVs on buses and subways, all their original images disappeared and were transformed into the images of this strange humanoid intelligent creature.

He laughed wildly on the screen, speaking in a strange, Blue Star Language.

"Blue Star people, surrender."

"Give up Blue Star and become our slaves, and you will be spared death!"

"Otherwise, when our fleet arrives on your planet, not a Blue Star human will survive!"

Hahahaha!

After uttering these words, the images of the Daosians disappeared, and media across the entire Blue Star returned to normal.

The Federation's live stream screen returned to the image of that massive interstellar fleet in deep space.

It's as if that Daosians never even appeared.

But at this time...

Every single person on Blue Star is on the verge of exploding!
