Chapter 2893: The Ultimate Voting

The next seven days were as long as seventy years for the entire Star Glory Federation.

After Bing Bing passed out in the first press conference, she quickly recovered and devoted herself to the press conferences of the major worlds of the federation. In fact, she was asking the federation to help the billions of citizens in the center of the universe who were suffering.

She was not the only ‘game spokesperson’ from the imperium, Other than the ‘underground natives’ from the Empyrean Terminus Sector and the Empyrean Terminus Planet, the ‘sinners’ from the ‘foreign land paradise’ in the world of martial arts were crying and telling their stories, which raised the

sympathy and outrage of the federal citizens.

Of course, the blood debts were all blamed on the remaining members of the four electors’ families. The Immortal Cultivators of the revolutionaries were depicted as people who still had a sliver of conscience and were trying to change everything. Those who were ‘still kind’ belonged to those who could be

saved and formed alliances.

The production team of the ‘Dark Invasion’ took the opportunity to release a lot of propaganda materials to show the public the authenticity of the data they collected. They also dissected more tragedies in the center of the sea of stars for the public of the federation to see clearly. The public was even more

shocked and infuriated.

As it tumed out, the ordinary people in the center of the sea of stars were suffering such pain!

If they remained indifferent, the same pain would soon play out beside them in the federation!

Their descendants would become lizards, mice, and cockroaches like the ‘Swamp Freak’, if not annihilated by the flames of war!

Faced with the overwhelming popular will, the highest authorities of the federation naturally had to express their stance and decrypt a lot of top-secret intelligence from the center of the sea of stars so that the citizens would know more about the military strength and the situation of the Star Glory

Federation and the Sanctuary.

When the experts and scholars interpreted the intelligence for the ordinary people, they would point out, intentionally or unintentionally, that both the Star Ocean Imperium and the Sanctuary boasted the capability of super large-scale, super long-distance space jumps. With sufficient resources, there

was not much difference between ten thousand lightyears and a million lightyears.

In other words, the ‘super long-distance defense line’ that could comfort the citizens of the federation did not exist at all. The federation was definitely not a lone island that could stay out of trouble. If the war in the center of the sea of stars grew more and more intense, the federation might be burnt to

the edge of the sea of stars at any time.

“As long as the situation in the center of the sea of stars remains stable, a strong, evil dictator will have all the resources under his control. It will not be difficult for him to deploy his troops to the periphery of the sea of stars. By then, the fate of the federation will be determined by his will.

“Unfortunately, as ‘Vulture Li Yao’, the best hero of the Star Glory Federation, shines in the center of the sea of stars, the Star Glory Federation has become a well-known entity. Whichever side the center of the sea of stars is controlled by in the end, the Federation will be their next target!

“By then, we will not be faced with one, two, or even three Black Wind Fleet, but five, ten, or even twenty. There will be no second outcome except to be annihilated.

“Since there will be a battle sooner or later, it is better to fight early than late. While the center of the sea of stars is in chaos and the situation is still unclear, we will march into the center of the sea of stars with all our strength and resist the enemy outside the gate of the nation!

“A life-and-death battle in the center of the sea of stars is always better than a life-and-death battle in the territory of the Star Glory Federation. The Black Wind Fleet alone nearly turned the inland of the Star Glory Federation into a wasteland. If three to five enemy troops the size of the Black Wind Fleet

were to press forward, even if they somehow won, it would certainly be a miserable victory!

“The outcome of the summit confrontation between Team Moon Fiend and Team Blood Shadow was not wrong, but the conditions were wrong in the beginning. The expedition army in the deduction only took up one third to one quarter of the federal army. Such cowardice was a great taboo for the

military. If they were going to fight, they would either not fight or treat it as a national war that concerned the life and death of the federation. They could not count on their luck and had to bet everything on it!

After a few days of deliberation, deduction, and debate, the experts and scholars gradually united. They resonated with the emotional voices of the common people and almost ignited the entire federation.

The ferment of public sentiment was even more evident in a widely circulated post.

“In the cold, dark universe, nobody is an island. All human beings are an inseparable part of the civilization.

“The suffering of our compatriots in the center of the sea of stars is our suffering, The people in the center of the sea of stars are being savaged and oppressed. Our wives, children, and children are being savaged and oppressed. The people in the center of the sea of stars are being banished from their

homes and staying underground forever, turning into deformed animals. They are the true depictions of our future!

“We are at the edge of the sea of stars, the last line of defense for the civilization of mankind. If we stand by and do nothing while our compatriots in the center of the sea of stars are bullied, savaged, and even deprived of their emotions and will, who is going to help us tomorrow when the enemy absorbs

all the resources in the center of the sea of stars and comes at us unstoppably?

“Therefore, summon our courage, burn our blood, and gather our wisdom. Let’s go to war. Let’s save. Let’s fight!

“This is not ‘other people’s war’. We are not just fighting for the glory of the federation. This is our war, the war to free mankind, the war to defend the greatest spirit of human civilization!

“Our heads can be chopped off, our blood can be shed, our bodies can be killed, and even the federal army and the Star Glory Federation can be completely destroyed. But we will never give the enemy the opportunity to trample on our bones, point at our heads, and say—look, the cowardly slaves!

This thread was similar to thousands upon thousands of others. Although it was crude, it expressed true feelings. As a result, the thread appeared to be exceptionally moving and powerful. It blew the horn of civil war. All the citizens of the federation completely boiled over. Students, workers, news

workers, disabled veterans… The demonstrations and gatherings that strongly supported the expedition took place on the streets and alleys of every city in the federation. Even the federal army was in an uproar. Countless hot-blooded young soldiers wrote bloody letters and actively asked to fight.

Although the General Staff of the federal army had been prudent in the proposal of the expedition to the center of the sea of stars, it did not mean that the federal army did not support the war.

In fact, in any era or country, it was not the army that was against the war but the group that benefited the most.

However, what the army considered more was not whether or not to fight, but how to win and how many benefits they could get after winning.

Since the public opinion was overwhelming and the morale of the army was usable, the leadership of the military naturally wouldn’t force themselves to go against the trend.

Therefore, less than half a month after the strategical deduction, the public opinion of the entire federation took a 180-degree turn, and their fighting will soared.

At this moment, there was less frivolousness and arrogance in the heated atmosphere of the civilians and the federal army. There was more sorrow in their eyes, as if they were faced with death. It was clear that the enemy’s strength was far beyond their imagination. But for the future and pride of the

civilization of mankind, they still had to gamble on the destiny of the nation. They had to give it their all. They would rather die standing than live on their knees. Such an understanding was very similar to the belief that a desperate army was bound to win.

Therefore, the time to vote in the Supreme Council was finally ripe.

The authority of the Speaker of Parliament was much lower than that of the Emperor of the Star Ocean Imperium and the supreme master of the Holy Alliance. Ding Lingdang could not decide to march into the center of the sea of stars on her own, but she could at least pick a suitable day and vote on the

most crucial and sacred day.

In the same way, she had the power to force the parliament to vote on a special motion that was beyond the control of ordinary parliament members.

This was perhaps the largest, most enthusiastic, and most closely watched vote since the establishment of the ‘New Federation’.

Not only were the 3,422 members of parliament gathered on the Heaven’s Origin Sector, there were also more than 10,000 representatives from the civilian population attending, Although these representatives did not have the right to vote in the Supreme Council, they brought with them extremely

strong popular support. They ensured that once the federation launched a general mobilization and sent troops, the war machine would be able to operate at its highest speed.

The noise of tens of thousands of representatives almost overturned the dome of the hall where the Rising Dragon of the Nine Stars flag was carved.

However, when Ding Lingdang, who was wearing a military uniform, appeared, the parliament turned silent again. All eyes were focused on the Speaker of Parliament and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

There was no need for further explanation. All the representatives understood the urgency and seriousness of the situation.

There was no need for any blood-boiling slogan to boost the morale. The hearts of the people who should be encouraged were already burning with passion, and the representatives were clearly not going to be moved by a few simple words.

Therefore, Ding Lingdang just expressionlessly walked to the rostrum, took a deep breath, and said each word firmly:

“Next, we will vote on the Federal Proposition 11354 proposed by Senator Peng Hai.

“You all know the specific content of the proposal. As to whether or not the federation will mobilize for war, whether or not it will form an alliance with the revolutionaries of the Star Ocean Imperium, and whether or not it will declare war on the Holy Accord Alliance… I will not elaborate.

“However, based on the current situation and the results of the latest intelligence we have received, I have added some additional clauses to the proposal based on the power granted by the constitution.

“In the original proposal, we have to decide whether or not to send a small expedition army, one third of which will be the federal army, to the center of the universe.

“But as it turned out, it was meaningless and even suicidal. The best warriors of the federation would’ve been killed in vain.

“Just admit it. What we are faced with right now is not a war in the center of the sea of stars but a new, more serious war to protect the civilization of mankind under the fangs of the strongest enemy!

“This may be the last war of the federation and the most sacred ultimate war. In the face of such a war, one third of the soldiers will not be enough no matter what. Even the efforts of the entire federal army will not be enough. We need everyone, all the citizens of the federation, to be united, to be united,

and to burn!

“Therefore, if Members of Parliament are not willing to veto the war proposal, please firmly support it. The entire federation will immediately enter the highest state of mobilization for war. We will gather everyone’s hot-bloodedness, courage, and wisdom and mobilize all the forces we can muster to

march into the center of the sea of stars and win the war. We will either live proudly or perish gloriously!”

“Now.

“Make your choice for the survival of the Star Glory Federation, for the glory of Cultivators, and for the future of mankind.”

A flag could not be raised randomly.

A few days ago, it was said that the book had entered 9 million words. It was the last kilometer of the marathon. He had to persevere.

Then, his ears were inflamed again, and it became more and more serious. For an entire week, his ears were ringing, and he could not sleep well. His head was dizzy, and his nerves were weak. Visiting a doctor did not help. Right now, he felt as if ten flies were stuffed into his ears.. What a headache!
