Chapter 849: Azure People Governing Azure
"Did you actually study genetics as well?" Sutherland was genuinely impressed.
"Hehe." Eastwind waved his hand. "You might not know, but the base has dissected countless Skrell bodies. Biologists are always discussing these things, and they're almost done discussing it to death."
Sutherland nodded in understanding. "So that's why."
Alyssa and Tina looked at him with confusion.
Tina whispered, "Genetics? What's genetics?"
Eastwind explained, "Genetics is the study of hereditary material, which is difficult to explain in a few words..."
Then, his eyes twinkled, and he playfully added, "Isn't Sutherland with you? Wait until you get home, and then you can have him give you his genes!..."
Eastwind immediately regretted his words, realizing how inappropriate they were, especially in front of a lady.
But he had blurted it out without thinking, and now he was at a loss for what to do next.
Tina and Alyssa were completely baffled and didn't understand Eastwind's suggestion.
Tina turned to Sutherland with a smile, "On Nova Star, is genetics something valuable? Will you really give me your genes when you get back?"
Alyssa's face turned serious, "If you give me Tina's, I must have a sample too. We are sisters, and you mustn't favor one over the other."
Sutherland, "..."
Sutherland was now completely at a loss, not knowing how to respond.
"Can't give" seemed the wrong answer, and "give" seemed even worse.
This is all Eastwind's fault, he thought to himself. What are you saying?
Just then, nearby cultivists also seemed to have overheard their conversation, and some of them were secretly laughing, making Sutherland want to find an uncomfortable escape, wanting to find a crack in the ground and escape the situation.
However, Eastwind's words had a significant impact. He looked at Sutherland with determination, "Don't talk about genetics anymore. We are still in our conversation, and I will give you my genes when we get home," Eastwind added, his eyes twinkling, "You can have more relaxed, knowing that the conversation was about to get serious. He continued, "Alright, let's get this over with. I'll give you my genes when we get home, Deal? You're serious, and I will do the same for Tina. We are sisters, and you mustn't favor one over the other."
The Skrulls demanded only the psychic energy of Blue Star, leaving all other resources, including land and sea, to the humans of Blue Star. The Skrulls would never touch these resources!
In the Sun City, where the Skrulls almost universally revered Plangt, the announcement left everyone stunned.
It couldn’t be that Plangt had taken some kind of powerful drug, this was a massive concession!
“Blue People Govern Blue”... What a brilliant idea!
However, no Skrull opposed Plangt's decision. His power and status made everyone too afraid to oppose it.
Even those who wanted to divide Blue Star and benefit from its resources, feared to speak out loud.
However, the words had a different impact on Blue Star.
As soon as Plangt's video was released, it sparked a heated debate online.
Everyone was discussing the matter intensely:
“My God! ‘Blue People Govern Blue,’ does this mean we can return to our old way of life?”
“It really does mean our old way of life. The Skrulls only want Blue Star's psychic energy and nothing else, so our lives could return to how they were a year ago!”
“It might even be better! Don’t forget, the Skrulls will sell us more advanced technology.”
“Everyone should surrender! It’s not shameful at all.”
“I used to be a staunch supporter of the resistance, but now, after some soul-searching, I truly believe surrendering is better.”
“I disagree! The countless innocent Blue Star citizens who died for nothing! This includes my parents. I must avenge them!”
“Want revenge? Go and get it yourself! There are 18 Skrull bases on Blue Star, so take your ninja shuriken and go!”
The online debate was intense, with a strong wave of pro-surrender sweeping the government and the people of Blue Star.
The high-ranking officials in the meeting room were greatly disturbed.
The 3D projection on the side of the meeting room continuously replayed Plangt's words, and the Speaker's face grew darker with each repetition.
The Skrulls’ move was really too much!
This massive concession would surely awaken all potential traitors, and the ordinary people would no longer resist in the fight against the Skrulls. The situation looked very grim for the resistance forces.
“Speaker, what should we do?” the meeting asked filled with tension and fear, the Speaker's words, and the tension in the meeting room grew palpable.
However, one thing was clear: no matter what the Skrulls say, we must stand firm in the fight against them, this point will never change!
The meeting continued, and the high-ranking officials in the room were deeply divided.
The smart among us knew this was a trick, but the ordinary people had different thoughts.
Some truly believed the Skrulls' words, while others, even if they knew it was a trick, deceived themselves with the thought, “What if it’s real? A peak God-tier master could speak, and with so many Skrulls watching, wouldn’t they tell?”
The online debate was overwhelmingly in favor of surrender, a wave of support that could crush the resistance.
