Galaxy Domination Guide-Chapter 595 - 581 Two Chancellors (Part Two)
When Mastrov, the commander of the Thirty-Seventh Legion, received the death battle order requested by Xiao Yu, his face turned green. He heard the public channel conversation loud and clear; Mastrov was no longer young. Eighteen years ago, he had not held his current military rank; at that time, he was just an ordinary officer who had lost his Ukrainian military position. He had lived through Bai Zhongqi's era and had witnessed Bai Zhongqi's troops stabilize the disorder in Ukraine. He absolutely lacked no understanding of the Chancellor who seldom appeared previously.
At the time, he did not understand why Bai Zhongqi had disappeared; since Xiao Yu said that Bai Zhongqi had relinquished the Chancellor's position to him, then it had been relinquished, and anyway, no one would oppose it. Or rather, those who would oppose it, like the Silver Feather Army, had already been physically destroyed.
But when that previously disregarded figure reappeared with a threatening aura, Mastrov became afraid. Mastrov was well aware of his own limits. Even though in his heart, he believed that, as Chancellor, Xiao Yu was probably stronger than Bai Zhongqi, the original Chancellor Bai had dared to confront the three great enslavers with Earth's few troops, and most of the accomplishments of the Star Alliance today were laid down during that time. Not to mention, with thousands of ships attacking now, the three legions of the Star Alliance seemed overwhelmingly feeble.
Mastrov was still hesitating, but the fleet of the Thirty-Seventh Legion had already taken to the skies.
His staff officer also looked at him with a deathly pale face, "Commander?"
Mastrov grimaced, "The Chancellor used the Supreme Command to automatically launch the fleet."
In some ways, even the entirely Star Alliance-comprised Thirty-Seventh Legion, compared to the Jinwu Army that involved absolutely no real humans, really had no difference.
Meanwhile, on Earth, the ground suddenly began to shake violently. The previously calm ocean now boiled like a heated pot, and the rolling waters turned into raging tsunamis.
The billions of Star Alliance people living on Earth instantly fell into immense panic. Originally, this planet, which was exhausted from overpopulation, hadn't become unsustainable despite surpassing ten billion in population. The rapid development of technology and the concentration of urbanization had, on the contrary, allowed the planet to form a state of good ecological and technological coexistence. Xiao Yu's contributions to this were naturally undeniable.
Not only was the human population on Earth continuously multiplying, but importantly, the naturalized populations from other administrative stars of the Star Alliance also aspired to move to the Capital Star, with a mentality similar to that of ancient people who competed to live "near the Son of Heaven," migrating en masse to Earth. Earth was also the only place in the entire Star Alliance where free migration was not allowed; a household registration on Earth was much more valuable than that of the Capital of C country in the old times.
The residents of Earth, who were originally full of pride and believed that nothing in the Galaxy could threaten them, couldn't have imagined that a global disaster was about to erupt.
In Guangxing City, Spratly Islands, Kentarou Yakushimaru, holding his hat with one hand, hugged a little girl who couldn't find her mother, and hurriedly ran out of the little beach hut. It was a resort area in the South Seas, unlike the city where all buildings were able to withstand magnitude ten earthquakes. A hut was just a hut; when it said to collapse, it collapsed.
The girl's mother rushed over, thanked the young but plain-looking Kentarou, didn't linger to express any more gratitude, and hurriedly took her daughter aboard a small rescue craft.
"Women, children, and the elderly first, young people, and male fellows, please wait a moment, our rescue capacity is sufficient, everyone will surely get out!" The officer in charge of the rescue gripped a remote-control-sized megaphone; when he spoke, the megaphone emitted a light-colored hologram, with ripples moving like on a speaker, amplifying his voice.
Kentarou was not in a hurry, though he no longer served as a soldier, the calm demeanor developed from his time in the military was still present.
He tapped the earring on his earlobe and connected with his good friend, "Lupica, how are things on your end?"
Amid the chaotic noises in the communication channel, Lupica exclaimed, "It's complete chaos here, complete chaos! An avalanche like a tsunami has come down from the Himalayas, and we have to not only rescue people but also yaks and other animals. Is this what dying feels like? Has God decided to end the world?"
Knowing that Lupica was born in Brazil and was somewhat influenced by Catholicism, Kentarou snorted and said, "If there is a God, then he should probably be the Chancellor of Star Alliance."
Lupica cried out, "Did you see it? A large number of Fleets have appeared outside Earth's defense line."

Kentarou hesitated, "What? Why hasn't there been any report?"
"Do you think it's still the old days? They decide what you common folks should or shouldn't know. Here, we have extraterrestrial engineering equipment that can see what's going on outside. Who knows who it is that has a problem with Star Alliance and is now attacking us. Ah, the last time Earth was attacked was almost twenty years ago. Back then, we were just kids."
Getting somewhat impatient, Kentarou stated, "We're facing a global geological disaster. Why hasn't the Star Alliance officially responded yet? In normal circumstances, there would have been people managing the contingency plans by now, so why has no assistant system appeared this time?"
Ever since the war against the three great enslavers, Earth had a very comprehensive catastrophe management system. During that time, Bai Zhongqi had even evacuated Earth's entire population underground, leaving no one on the surface. With Star Alliance's current strength, even a global geological disaster would allow many to be saved. Yet strangely, from before the disaster to now, there had not been any official statement.
Even the rescue teams on the beaches now are actually from the vacation resorts' own lifeguard teams.
A dark shadow fell over Kentarou's heart.
"Even if we have to deal with an incoming enemy Fleet, it shouldn't mean that we can't manage a disaster on Earth too, right? And is it just a coincidence that as soon as there's an invasion, Earth experiences a disaster? Could it be the mysterious invaders who caused this?" Kentarou couldn't make sense of it.
Meanwhile, aboard the flagship Blade Empress, Bai Zhongqi faced the complete collapse of Earth with a look of shock and anger.
"Xiao Yu, it seems I have still overestimated your limits; you could actually resort to such methods."
The two Chancellors, who had not yet met face to face, were like two grand masters in a game of chess or duelists exchanging moves. Bai Zhongqi, with his ability to disregard the confines of space, had launched a surprise attack on Earth to seize the initiative. Meanwhile, Xiao Yu preferred a desperate measure, willing even to destroy Earth rather than let it fall into Bai Zhongqi's hands.
In a remote and unknown location, wearing black Chancellor's attire, Xiao Yu smiled softly to himself and murmured, "Even if you have returned with a powerful Fleet, do you really think the Star Alliance I hold can be so easily defeated? I want you to understand, being the head of a civilization, you are far from qualified. The might of the Supreme Command, you cannot fully wield!"
