It was clear that the war would not be stopped immediately. War, once started, would not be simply stopped by talking about it. Realistically speaking, to stop this war, there needed to be a large scale battle.
Ren Yixuan was excited. For him, this was an art.
As for the Aslan Empire, it was their redemption.
After receiving reinforcements from three republics, all of Aslan was celebrating. When they received the news of Manalasuo and the Darkness Empire joining in the battle, the people were in despair. Who would have known that the Solar System would stand up for them now.
As for the young spokesperson, the people of Aslan knew of him as well, the youngest Heaven-rank warrior, and other countless titles. Moreover, it was said that he was together with Her Majesty the Queen. No matter how they viewed it, the people had a favorable view of their savior.
That’s right, Wang Zheng was equivalent to Aslan’s savior.
Perhaps there were many reasons, but were there no personal feelings in this?
Cheers could be heard throughout the palace. This was the same for outside the palace as well. It was as if they had won the war. Aslan was not afraid of death, but they were afraid of losing hope, and at this crucial moment, Wang Zheng had brought hope.
All along, the people around Aina looked down on Wang Zheng. No matter how powerful Wang Zheng may be, even if he was the strongest super soldier, he was not worthy of Aina. However, everything had changed.
Wang Zheng represented the Solar System-Tita alliance and was supporting the Aslan Empire. At the same time, his declaration to end the war was broadcasted countless times.
To use force to end the war!
Dominating, impressive, decisive, and from his gaze, you could see how much faith he had that he would win!
Everyone was talking about Wang Zheng, about how strong and brave he was.
Aina slept well. After the meeting ended, she was knocked out immediately. She was too tired, and it has been a long time since she had a good night’s sleep. She knew Wang Zheng would be able to do it; her man had yet to disappoint her.
Huiyin was silently taking care of her. It was not long before Angela walked in. Huiyin made a hand sign for her to lower her volume, and she quietly closed the door.
“Your Highness, the three republics have communicated with us. They will give us their full support in terms of troops and resources to help end this war. There is hope for us!” Angela said excitedly.
Huiyin light smiled. “Did Big Brother Wang Zheng mention me? I kind of miss him.”
There was nothing Huiyin hid from Angela.
“Cough, Your Highness, I didn’t hear anything. I heard that the reason the Gemini Star and the Hail Cloud Alliance joined in is mainly because of Wang Zheng.” Angela was in awe, a miracle one after another, making Wang Zheng the most influential person in the Milky Way Alliance. It really was weird that it was not Ren Yixuan, not Bolet, and especially not the Saint, which no longer existed.
Miracle after miracle, making Wang Zheng an unbeatable legend. If it happened just once or twice, it would’ve been nothing, but it went beyond that. And now, Wang Zheng was the definition of unrivaled. When his fleet arrived, it would give the enemy enormous stress.
Once this happened, the Aslan Empire could no longer be defeated, but the new problem was: how would this war end?
“Don’t care, and don’t want to think about it. Big Brother Wang Zheng must have a way to deal with all of this. After this war ends, I must make him bring me around to travel.”
Huiyin no longer had to shoulder the burden. For the past few months, she has been pretending to be strong and mature, so as to not worry those around her worry, but now there was someone she could rely on.
What could Angela say?
For a man to be this excellent, to be honest, there was nothing she could say. The number of people who admired Wang Zheng could form a long line from Aslan to the Solar System.
Bang…
Lear smashed the table in front of him into smithereens. The Wang Zheng in the monitor was disgusting as always, and Lear really wanted to kill him with one slap.
What a great situation this was, and it had been destroyed by him. Jay York’s expression did not change. “Boss, Bolet, that old man, is shrewd. The news I received is that they plan on watching. As long as they benefit from this, it does not matter if the war continues or not.”
The fleet would not stop advancing. On the contrary, Manalasuo had increased its troops. This was merely for show, or to say, it may be to obtain more benefits after the war.
A cold smirk appeared on Lear’s face. While he had all the plans, if the war ended like this, he would be the most pitiful character. His new human plan would become a plan for a zoo, and there would be no value in him being alive in the future.
This could not be allowed!
Even till the end, Wang Zheng was going to destroy his hopes. This could not be allowed. In such a sensitive situation, a slight problem would destroy everything.
It may be peace, or it may be the start of a world war.
Lear knew that the time to duel with Wang Zheng was here!
The frequency of battles in Aslan’s star field, which was initially high, decreased significantly. Internationally, calls for the war to end and for them to negotiate had increased. Lya Sphinx, which had close relations with the Gemini Star, the Republic of Clark, and other anti-war countries had shown their support. While they did not deploy troops, they provided resources to the Aslan Empire. All of this was to stop the war before it went out of control.
The voices that came from throughout the world gave immense pressure to Arbiter and the other three empires. The four countries did not have the strength to fight the whole world, or to say that they had not made preparations for that.
But if they let Aslan go like this, no matter who it was, they would be unwilling with such benefits before them. By occupying Aslan, their country’s strength would increase by twenty years in an instant. This was something the four empires strongly desire.
However, after Atlantis showed their support, the four empires were no longer considering it.
After the war began, the Atlantis Empire had stayed out of it, but to join in at such a sensitive time, it made everyone speechless.
This was a relatively balanced situation, and Atlantis’ appearance destroyed this balance. Whichever side they supported, that would be the winning side.
No one would underestimate the effect Atlantis would have.
This forcibly made the four empires stop. Undoubtedly, Atlantis would be another winner of this war. Not wasting a single troop, but could intimidate others while maintaining a neutral stance. Even if forced to, Atlantis would deploy their troops, but no one would dare to take the risk. What if they deployed their troops?
Atlantis was much stronger than the Maya Empire, and numerous countries felt that the reason Aslan was able to lead was mainly due to Atlantis.
With Arbiter, Maya, Manalasuo, and the Darkness Empire at the core against Aslan, the Solar System-Tita alliance, the Hail Cloud Alliance, and the Gemini Star at its core, which was the anti-war alliance, flooded Aslan’s star field with troops. The ships of both sides reached a million. It could be said to have covered the sun, and this was the strongest strength displayed by humans in the past hundred years.
Once the war started, it would be absolutely destructive. It can be said that this was all the strength humans currently had, and the ending would be undesirable.
From this scene, Arbiter and the rest noticed a problem. It would be difficult to say that they had an advantage, as neither side had it. Even if the empires achieved victory, what would happen after that?
Countries like Atlantis, Astina, and Lya Sphinx were relatively strong. If both sides were heavily weakened, this would be a situation of two parties fighting and the third party benefiting. Occupation? Would they be able to hold on to it?
Be it the strength of the fleet, the strength of the elite ships, and the number of Heaven-rank warriors, it seemed like the empires still had the advantage, but this advantage was no longer as significant.
This situation created the possibility of negotiations. Hence, the representatives of the eight countries began rounds of intense negotiations, and it was clear that the empires did not want to return empty-handed. This was a clash of interests. Overall, Aslan had started this war, so regarding the issue of war reparations, the four empires had the upper hand. And they would not let go of that easily, hence the possibility of war existed.
While they were negotiating under the table, the various countries were increasing the number of troops. The Hail Cloud Alliance did not have any hopes of being lucky. Once they entered the battlefield, there was only victory, and large numbers of ships were sent into the Aslan star field.
The resources consumed by the ships of both sides each day were astronomical numbers, but this was a competition of national strength.
After a week of negotiations, both parties were still arguing, and there was yet to be a victor. It was difficult to agree on the conditions. Manalasuo and the Darkness Empire were currently occupying the Sirius Star and the Fairy Star – to talk about going against the Milky Way Alliance Convention, it would be the pot calling the kettle black.
Wang Zheng did not join in the negotiations. There were both pros and cons to the stalemate. The pro was that both sides saw the risks, which led to the negotiations, and the con was that it was human nature to not give up till it was over. The demands of the empires were too much. If they agreed to it, Aslan would become a colony. This was something Aslan would never agree to, and their allies as well. Aslan’s future was one of the key reasons for the possibility of war. After experiencing this war, Aslan could no longer be considered an empire, but it would still possess the strength of one. Hence, Aslan needed balance. If not, sooner or later, a world war would erupt.
While the negotiations on the table were fierce, Lear was not anxious, as he was waiting for an opportunity. He did not believe that humans would be able to find a solution through negotiations, they would only negotiate if they had to solve something which could not be solved by war, and it had yet to reach that stage.
Recently, a voice had been disturbing him. He could feel the Zerg summoning him, the queen Zerg of the abyss calling from him. It was faint, but Lear did not think of it as nothing. In his body were the genes of the Zerg, which allowed him to control them, so it was not surprising to be able to sense the queen Zerg. Lear wanted to make use of the power of the Zerg, but now was not the time. What Lear wanted was to be the king of humans, not become a monster. If he becomes the head of a monster army… what was he?
An old monster?
