Chapter 1024: Expulsion from the Planet
Chapter 1024: Expulsion from the Planet
The 22 allied tribes halted at the border, their numbers vast and imposing.
Opposite them were Plant, Mariner III, and Stium, three god-level beings from G2. All of G2's god-level experts, except for the recuperating Elizabeth, had rushed to the scene.
Half an hour earlier, the Skrull god-levels had learned of the events in the Final Secret Realm. They were stunned when they heard that Cecilia had gone on a rampage, slaughtering countless participants!
No one had expected that after escaping, Cecilia would enter the Final Secret Realm and massacre half of its participants. It was no wonder they hadn’t been able to find her, searching the entire planet without a trace. She had been in the Final Secret Realm all along!
Now, the question was:
How did Cecilia get in?
They had tried to find a way into the Final Secret Realm before, but found nothing. How did Cecilia manage it? Could it be related to the dark rebel forces she was rumored to be involved with?
Moreover, the Skrull tribe had lost nine of their prodigies in this massacre. These nine were the cream of the crop among the young generation of G2, causing them great pain.
However, Cecilia’s issue had to be put on hold for now.
Their immediate concern was the accountability demanded by the 22 allied tribes (counting Chancellor Cao as the 23rd tribe).
This matter had to be handled well, or it could lead to a significant upheaval! Especially at this critical juncture.
So, the three god-levels had agreed to come together to the northern border of the Leiyang Empire to deal with the 22 allied tribes.
...
High in the air, Plant stood with a serious expression, surveying the 22 allied tribes.
Among the 22 allied tribes, many had long-standing enmities. For example, the Sea Giants and the Merfolk had been at odds for ages, the White-headed Eagles were prey for the Dragon Clan, and the Crowned Birds were food for all the tribes...
But now, the 22 allied tribes were united, showing no signs of division. It seemed this wouldn't be an easy task!
"Cough, cough." Plant cleared his throat and stepped forward, saying, "Everyone, I believe there's been a misunderstanding! The massacre in the Final Secret Realm has nothing to do with our Skrull tribe!"
"Nothing to do with you?" The White-headed Eagle Emperor's gaze was lazy, but his voice was sharp, "So, you're suggesting we expel Cecilia from the tribe?"
"That's right, expel her from the tribe!" Plant declared loudly.
"..." Hearing Plant’s words, the White-headed Eagle Emperor was momentarily stunned.
He had only meant to mock Plant, but didn’t expect Plant to take it seriously!
Plant continued firmly, "Not only will we expel her from the tribe, but we will also expel her from the planet! From today, Cecilia is no longer to be considered a being of our Skrull planet. I am ashamed that our planet has produced such a creature!
From today, I declare that Cecilia is officially expel from the planet!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
Hearing these words, not just the White-headed Eagle Emperor, but all the leaders of the various tribes were stunned! Plant’s determination to cut ties with Cecilia was too obvious, even going as far as to say "expel from the planet"!
Plant was clearly refusing to take any responsibility for Cecilia’s actions!
...
Due to Plant’s words being too "shocking," the scene fell into a long silence.
After half a minute, Dragon Emperor Cardrigos finally recovered from his shock and asked, "Plant, are you serious? What exactly happened?"
Plant said gravely, "At this point, I won’t hide anything from you. I will tell you the truth about Cecilia’s actions.
However, everyone must swear to keep everything they hear today a secret, or it will cause chaos in the entire world!"
As Plant spoke, a pink ion light screen formed beneath their feet.
This screen was for soundproofing, to prevent the sounds from reaching the ordinary Skrulls in the town below.
Seeing Plant’s serious expression, no one dared to speak further.
"Alright, go ahead."
"We swear to keep it a secret."
The 22 allied tribes and Chancellor Cao all pledged to keep the secret, even ensuring their subordinates would not spread the information.
Plant nodded after hearing this, "Alright, now I will tell you the truth. The real situation with Cecilia is as follows..."
Plant spent some time recounting all of Cecilia’s deeds, without any fabrication or concealment (he didn’t fabricate or conceal because the Blue Star people also knew about this, and lying would be easily exposed).
To ensure everyone understood the background, he provided a detailed introduction to the "Dark Energy Rebellion," explaining just how powerful they were.
...
After hearing Plante's account, the leaders of the various races and Chancellor Cao were stunned!
They never imagined that Cecilia had such a formidable background!
This was a rebellion on a galactic scale!
What qualifications did the Skrulls have to encounter such a powerful force?
For a moment, the entire sky fell silent.
Everyone was so frightened that their minds went blank, unsure of what to do.
"Genocide! This is genocide!" the Crownbird Clan Leader muttered uncontrollably, his voice trembling with fear.
Faced with the "Dark Energy Rebellion," a colossal force, the Crownbird Clan Leader felt the threat of genocide for the first time.
He had completely dismissed the recent war between the Skrulls and the Blue Star humans, as it didn't concern the Crownbird Clan much.
If the Skrulls won, they would still be food; if the Skrulls lost, they would still be food, with the Blue Star humans merely added to the top of their food chain.
With a population of 65 billion, the Crownbird Clan was as stable as a mountain, harder to wipe out than the Skrulls!
But now...
The threat from the Dark Energy Rebellion filled him with immense fear!
This force would leave nothing but desolation, and no race would survive!
Listening to the Crownbird Clan Leader's lament, Cadrigus became extremely agitated.
He blew a gust of wind, sending the Crownbird Clan Leader flying over a hundred meters away.
Then, the Dragon Emperor quickly turned to Plante, "Is everything you said true? Absolutely no lies?"
"Every word I said is true, not a single lie!" Plante assured them solemnly. "I have data from the super AI, Sange, which I will share with everyone shortly."
To prevent the leaders from still disbelieving, Plante continued, "Besides us, the Blue Star humans also know about this. As I mentioned earlier, they were the ones who thwarted Cecilia's plot on their planet.
If you still don't believe me, you can ask Chancellor Cao to return to his planet and inquire. Chancellor Cao should be returning to our Skrull planet next month, and the truth will be revealed then!"
With Plante's words, no one doubted him anymore.
"Then this is truly a problem!" Dragon Emperor Cadrigus flapped his wings anxiously. "The Dark Energy Rebellion? How can we possibly stand against them? Do we just surrender?"
"Don't panic, everyone. Sange has already sent a planetary-level entity to support us, but they haven't arrived yet..."
Plante also explained Sange's decision, emphasizing that Sange had instructed them to continue the war with the Blue Star humans, as they had a just cause.
He concluded, "Because Cecilia is a traitor who betrayed the Skrull planet, our six god-level Skrulls have united to take down her stronghold.
As for her actions in the Final Secret Realm, where she wreaked havoc, we are truly powerless and can only express deep regret."
"..." After hearing Plante's entire account, the 22 clan leaders present looked helpless.
Plante was right; the Skrulls were also victims in this matter and shouldn't bear all the blame.
It seemed they couldn't hold the Skrulls accountable, and they would have to accept their fate!
...
However, at this moment, Chancellor Cao spoke up.
He stroked his long beard and said solemnly, "Plante, although this isn't entirely your Skrulls' fault, this matter can't be left unresolved!"
"What right do you, a Blue Star human, have to stir things up!" Plante shouted angrily.
"Right? Just because I am at the peak of the god-level and I was also a victim in the Secret Realm, do you doubt my right?" Chancellor Cao replied calmly.
Then he turned to the leaders present and said earnestly, "Everyone, the circumstances surrounding the Cecilia incident are suspicious. If everything Plante said is true, then the Skrulls are not entirely to blame. However..."
He paused, turning to face Plante directly, "However, after Cecilia left, she left behind a vast fortune!
I have seen the reports from the Renkter Alliance: Cecilia operated in the Bak Kingdom and surrounding areas for nearly a thousand years, leaving behind an astronomical fortune, and each of the god-level beings who participated in dividing it gained significantly!
The problem is—Cecilia is a traitor to the entire planet, a traitor to the entire Skrull planet, and we on the Blue Star have also suffered greatly!
She killed the geniuses of our 23 races in the Final Secret Realm, causing each of us significant losses!
Therefore, shouldn't the 23 races receive a portion of Cecilia's fortune as compensation?"
"Isn't that right?"
"!!!" Upon hearing Cao Cao's words, the chieftains of the various clans were suddenly enlightened!
Of course, why hadn't they thought of it!
Since Plante had expelled Cecilia from the planet and wanted to sever all ties with her, her assets should logically be divided among all the clans. Why should only the Skrulls get everything?
Thus, the chieftains of the various clans loudly declared:
"Cao Cao is right; we should also get a share!"
"And our share shouldn't be small, considering that the geniuses of each clan were brutally slaughtered!"
"How about we divide Cecilia's assets equally into 24 parts, with each clan getting one part? That would be the fairest and most just."
"Agreed."
The Chieftain of the CROWN Birds flapped his wings excitedly, "And don't forget me! I deserve an even larger share! All six of our young CROWN Birds were killed. If I don't get more, I won't let this go!"
...
The chieftains of the various clans grew more and more excited!
They had seen the reports about "how much Cecilia's assets actually were," and it was clear that, as a god-like being with nearly a thousand years of accumulation, the amount was staggering!
Before, they had never thought that such a vast fortune could be divided among their clans. Now that the opportunity had come, they must seize it quickly!
Moreover, there was one very important point—Even one twenty-fourth of Cecilia's assets was an astonishing amount!
This wealth would be enough to compensate for the loss of their geniuses!
...
Watching the chieftains of the various clans jumping up and down in excitement, Plante was momentarily stunned.
He had never imagined that Cao Cao would play such a dirty trick, suggesting the division of Cecilia's assets!
And this dirty trick sounded quite reasonable at first!
"What should we do?" Plante quickly used his mental powers to communicate with Manina III and Stium.
"This..." Stium hesitated, "Given the current situation, the chieftains of the various clans are very tempted. If we continue to refuse to give anything, it might not be wise."
Manina III frowned, "But if we really divide Cecilia's assets equally, won't the benefits to the other clans be too great?
One twenty-fourth of Cecilia's assets is definitely more than the value of the geniuses they lost in the secret realm. How can we give them so much?"
Plante sighed, "Then we'll give them a little, but try to do it with the least cost to get them to leave."
After the discussion, Plante turned to the chieftains of the various clans and Cao Cao, "Everyone, since Cecilia killed the geniuses of your clans, it's reasonable for you to receive a portion of her assets as compensation.
Here's what we propose: we'll give you 30% of Cecilia's assets..."
"30%? Are you treating us like beggars!" Before Plante could finish, Cao Cao interrupted, "30% is too little! You take 70%, and the remaining 30% is divided among 23 clans? That means each clan gets just over 1%? Not to mention me, does anyone agree with this?"
"No, I don't agree!"
"Absolutely not!"
"Why should the Skrulls get 70%? Are you not taking us seriously?"
The chieftains of the various clans erupted in anger, loudly condemning the proposal.
Under normal circumstances, they would never dare to act so boldly in front of Plante and Manina III, both peak god-like beings.
But with the strength of numbers and the support of Cao Cao, a peak god-like being himself, they felt emboldened and fearless.
Plante's face darkened.
Giving up 30% was already painful enough for them.
If it weren't for the overwhelming numbers of the other clans, he wouldn't have given a single coin! And now they were still not satisfied!
At this moment, Plante received a mental message from Stium, "Sir Plante, I suggest we go with 50%. If we don't increase it, I don't think they'll back down."
After another round of discussion, Plante stepped back, and Stium stepped forward, "Everyone, we are willing to increase the share to 50%..."
But Cao Cao interrupted again, "50% is still not acceptable. It must be 100% divided equally! We won't accept any number less than 100%!"
