Chapter 875: Welcome to Skrul!
Chapter 875: Welcome to Skrul!
He thought Brandon’s defection was entirely justified.
"Everyone has the right to pursue a better life; it’s a human right, and it’s freedom!"
"Following the humans of Earth, the probability of death in battle is high, but with the Skrul, life is much more comfortable. Only those with a faulty brain would choose to stay on Earth!"
"There’s an old saying in China, 'A wise person adapts to the times.' Even the Chinese people agree that Brandon’s defection is not a problem."
He provided a series of explanations for Brandon’s defection.
And because of these explanations, he gradually developed a desire to leave Earth and run to Skrul.
He believed that by going there, he could escape the war and live a good life.
The humans of Earth could never launch a counterattack against Skrul, right?
...
It was this morning that the opportunity came!
Manina’s speech earlier, which touched Figos, made him determined to leave.
He didn’t hesitate, quickly packed his belongings, and headed towards the nearest giant psychic spring.
On the way, he found many like-minded individuals who were willing to run to Skrul. Many even ran ahead of him.
And the United Government’s soldiers did not hinder them.
Figos, relying on his own abilities, easily entered the Skrul Mega Base, becoming one of the many defectors.
...
Upon entering the Skrul base, the Skrulians treated them well, not with abuse, but with kindness.
The Skrul soldiers in the base spoke briefly and concisely about the necessary precautions for settling on Skrul, and welcomed them warmly.
At 3 PM, Figos boarded the third transport ship, passing through the spatial rift to Skrul.
Looking at the futuristic city below, with the sun shining like a scene from a sci-fi movie, all the Earth defectors on the ship were filled with excitement.
Now Here, they no longer had to worry about dying in the interstellar war, but instead, they could live a peaceful life on Skrul.
And on Skrul, the standard of living would definitely be better than before; everyone was eagerly anticipating.
Cross the spatial rift, the transport ship carrying the Earth defectors landed smoothly in a large hangar of the Skrul Mega Base.
The ship landed, and the pilot of the ship courteously and elegantly said, "Everyone can disembark now. After disembarking, there will naturally be staff to guide you to registration and data entry."
With a heart full of anxiety, Figos walked at the forefront, leading the large group off the transport ship.
But just as he stepped off the transport ship, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of him.
Figos was first shocked, then overjoyed.
He couldn’t believe it and shouted, "Brandon! It’s you, Brandon! What are you doing here?"
Standing in front of him was none other than the first defector from Earth—Brandon Vangberg.
Brandon, having just received a message, immediately rushed over to the transport ship.
No matter what, he also had to quickly finish the promotional video, or Manina would blame him again...
Seeing Brandon there, the crowd behind him was also in extreme shock.
No one had expected Brandon to be here to greet them, as they had never met someone of his level before, and now he was standing right in front of them!
Brandon smiled slightly and said to the crowd, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Brandon Vangberg. Here, I warmly welcome you all to Skrul, from now on, live a good life!"
Clap! Clap!
A chorus of applause, Brandon raised his hands high, making the "Embrace the Sun" gesture.
The camera behind him faithfully recorded the scene.
Brandon continued, "I'm here to guide you all into a new life. If you trust me, then come with me! I'll take you to register, undergo medical exams, and receive your personal identification cards. From now on, you'll be legal citizens of Skrul!"
The audience erupted into enthusiastic applause once more.
Amid the applause, Brandon led the excited group to the temporary registration office.
He didn't forget about Figus, either.
Figus only needed one look to recognize him, indicating that he was very familiar with Brandon. Considering that today Brandon wasn't wearing the usual attire of Blue Star but instead donned the latest Skrul fashion—snake-skin clothing—it was clear that Figus must be a fan.
So, he casually walked over to Figus, falling into step with him, and asked, "Hey, man, how did you recognize me at first glance?"
Figus was now overwhelmed with excitement, his heart pounding with waves of emotion.
He could actually stand beside his idol, who was speaking to him so kindly.
"Am I dreaming? Am I in heaven?" Figus felt dizzy, almost fainting from the surge of blood rushing to his head.
However, he was a third-stage cultivator, so he still had some basic resilience.
He stammered, "B... Brandon, I'm Figus. In fact, I'm your fan! Three months ago, I even had a life-sized pillow made to look exactly like you, and I hug it to sleep every night."
Brandon: "..."
His arm, which was resting on Figus's shoulder, stiffened slightly.
While it was common for such gay behavior in the Pacific Federation, as it was influenced by the Great Ying, passing down the tradition, Figus himself wasn't into that. He preferred the beautiful and curvaceous females.
However, considering the video was being recorded, he didn't snub Figus.
With no other suitable candidates available in the short term, he decided to make Figus the main character.
"Figus, follow me. I'll guide you and everyone else to get familiar with the first day of life on Skrul."
"Thank you so much, Brandon."
...
With his idol by his side, Figus was exceptionally eager and proactive.
After completing the registration, medical exams, and other routine procedures, Figus and the others were led into a massive troop transport ship.
This transport ship was much larger than the one they arrived in, capable of carrying at least 500 people.
Figus's group consisted of only 100 people, and it took the combined 500 people from five transport ships to fill this large one.
As Figus and the others entered the ship, the AI system immediately directed robotic assistants to distribute a lightweight, powered exoskeleton to each person.
Figus and the others didn't know these were exoskeletons for mining on other planets; they only knew they were exoskeletons.
So, upon seeing the exoskeletons, everyone's face lit up with joy.
They couldn't believe the Skrulians were so generous, giving each of them an exoskeleton.
Could it be that their dream of becoming Iron Man was coming true?
However, just as Figus started to get excited, the transport ship's hatch closed.
With a loud roar, the transport ship quickly ascended into the sky, breaking through the atmosphere of Skrul and entering space within minutes.
