Chapter 956: Another Accusation
Chapter 956: Another Accusation
A short while later, Alyssa's clear voice echoed across Sun City: "Emperor Manina, you're not even in the palace! Where are you?"
"To abandon your people in such a critical moment is truly irresponsible!"
To ensure the Sun City residents understood, Alyssa spoke in the Skrull Common Language, amplified by her magic to reach every corner of the city.
Upon hearing Alyssa's voice, the residents of Sun City were stunned.
What? The emperor isn't in the palace?
He actually fled before the Blue Star warriors arrived?
This revelation left everyone feeling extremely displeased!
Rationally, they knew that the emperor's decision to flee was correct.
If Alyssa, Morning Star, and the others found him and targeted him, he would likely not survive their combined attack.
Fleeing to avoid that risk was a reasonable choice.
However, emotionally, they felt very upset.
Emperor Manina XIII was their leader, and to abandon them like this made them feel betrayed, a feeling that was deeply unsettling.
For a moment, Sun City was in an uproar.
Some residents complained to each other about Manina's escape, while others took a more rational stance, trying to understand his decision.
Soon, the city was filled with murmurs and discussions.
...
Meanwhile, in another city, Manina's face turned ashen.
He had already fled and settled in a different city.
This city was no stranger to the residents; it was Yangquan City, where Tina and Morning Star had met up!
Manina's decision to come here was a stroke of inspiration.
He believed that since Alyssa and the others had been to Yangquan City, they were unlikely to return.
Thus, he took a roundabout route to avoid encountering Alyssa on the way.
In his temporary quarters in Yangquan City, with the help of AI Sunshine, Manina was watching two virtual screens.
The left screen showed the current situation of the Sea Giants, while the right screen displayed the sky above the Sun Palace.
Upon hearing Alyssa's words, Manina's face darkened.
There was no doubt that Alyssa's accusations would erode the public's trust in him. "Deserting the battlefield" was a significant blow to his reputation!
However, he had no choice, as he was already in Yangquan City and could not appear to dispel the rumors.
After some thought, he said to AI Sunshine, "Sunshine, contact Prince Morgan of the Sun."
"Ah?" AI Sunshine was clearly taken aback. "Are you sure you want to contact him now?"
"Yes, contact him now," Manina affirmed.
"Alright, I'll contact Prince Morgan," AI Sunshine replied, unable to defy the emperor's wishes. "The entire process will take about half an hour, and the call will cost 110,000 cans of high-density spirit energy per minute. Please be prepared."
"Morgan of the Sun" was the third prince of the Sun Empire.
Currently, Morgan was not on Skrull but studying in the Holy Silver Federation.
Due to the vast distance, the cost of the call was exorbitant, requiring a significant amount of spirit energy per minute.
It's worth noting that despite being in the Holy Silver Federation, Morgan had made significant contributions to his home planet.
For instance, it was through Morgan that the Skrull gods first learned of the "Ascension Plan," which led to the current war.
Morgan also confirmed that the black dragon, Zhong Feng's avatar, was not from the Holy Dragon Star, thus verifying the connection between the dragon race and the Blue Star humans.
Lastly, the "Fairness in War Principle" was proposed by Morgan, who presented the relevant information to Saint Song, leading to the decision to allow a peak god to join the Skrull human side.
In essence, although Morgan was not on Skrull, his influence on the war was significant.
Manina needed to contact him for an important matter.
AI Sunshine began the process of contacting Morgan.
A third virtual screen appeared in front of Manina, displaying "Connecting," specifically for the call to Morgan.
Manina was not in a hurry, as the connection would take at least half an hour.
During the wait, he turned his attention to the right virtual screen, continuing to observe the movements of Alyssa and the others in Sun City.
...
After her criticism of Manina, Alyssa did not linger above the Sun Palace.
After a brief discussion with Morning Star and Tina, the two women and the cat flew off to the east.
Here is the rewritten chapter with non-English characters replaced with their English equivalents or transliterations:
Their next destination was Longlin City, located on the easternmost edge of the Sun Empire.
Longlin City was the territory of Hayden Sun and one of the top three largest cities in the entire Sun Empire.
Alyssa and her companions planned to tour the city and, under the pretext of a formal visit, pay a call to the Dragon Clan on Dragon Island.
A formal visit was different from secret contact, and it held more significance.
The two women and the cat moved swiftly, reaching the eastern outskirts of Sun City in less than half a minute at full speed.
Victoria and the other three Divine Rank beings naturally followed behind them.
However, the over twenty Seventh Rank Skrull elites did not accompany them to Longlin City but remained in Sun City on standby.
Upon noticing Alyssa and her companions were about to leave Sun City, the residents were taken aback!
What was happening?
They were still scrambling to leave the city in their vehicles, but how could Alyssa and her group leave first?
Aren't they supposed to self-destruct?
This made the residents' frantic escape look foolish.
The residents of Sun City continued to discuss on the internet:
"Wait, these three Blue Star powerhouses aren't planning to self-destruct but are leaving Sun City?"
"Look at their flight path... Indeed! They are definitely leaving!"
"Where are they going? They can't be heading to some remote, uninhabited place to self-destruct, right?"
"I suddenly feel like an idiot. I just spent four hours escaping the city and didn't even have time to celebrate, and now they're gone?"
"Forget it, everyone should just go home and find their mothers. The crisis in Sun City should be over now."
"Ha, I'm still stuck in the traffic trying to leave the city! Now I can't even turn around, how embarrassing!"
...
The residents of Sun City had a false alarm, and after a round of complaints, they turned back home.
However, the residents of other cities in the Sun Empire were shocked!
The Blue Star powerhouses were leaving Sun City, and where were they headed?
Residents of Longlin City and the nearby large cities were especially stunned! According to reliable information, the Blue Star powerhouses had left Sun City from the eastern side.
This meant these three Blue Star powerhouses were heading their way!
Which city were these Blue Star people planning to visit?
Residents of these cities were alarmed, and some who lived in the suburbs had already started fleeing the city.
Although the likelihood of Morningstar and her companions self-destructing in their cities was low—after all, if they truly wanted to self-destruct, they would have done so in Sun City—there was always a chance.
What if the Skrull Divine Rank decided to eliminate the threat once and for all, engaging in a battle over their cities?
Once the battle started, Morningstar and her companions would still self-destruct.
So, the residents of these cities quickly left their homes and headed out of the city.
Even if nothing happened, they could always return after the Blue Star people were gone.
As a result, there were varying levels of unrest in over a dozen large cities in the eastern part of the Sun Empire, with a constant flow of vehicles on the main roads leading out of the cities.
...
Seeing Morningstar and her companions leave Sun City on the virtual screen, Manina withdrew her gaze, focusing on the central virtual display.
The central display was used to contact Morgan Sun.
Earlier, AI Sunshine said it would take half an hour to establish contact, but this time, after only 5 minutes, the display showed - Signal Connecting.
Manina immediately prepared herself.
After about ten more seconds, the virtual display flickered, and the image of her son, Morgan Prince, appeared.
Morgan Prince, a middle-aged man in his 40s with green skin, similar in appearance to Manina, waved at her from the other end of the screen, smiling: "Father, I'm currently training on a planet in the galaxy, not in the Holy Silver Star System, so the signal connection is faster, and the 'communication cost' is lower. What's the matter?"
Behind Morgan Prince was a cave scenery, and his clothes were dirty, indicating he was exploring a secret realm.
"Son, I have a very important matter to discuss with you." Due to the high 'communication cost', Manina skipped the pleasantries and got straight to the point: "This time, it's about filing a complaint against the Blue Star people regarding the 'War Fairness Principle', a process you should be familiar with, right?"
"Another complaint?" Morgan Prince was slightly taken aback.
This was already the third complaint; was his father addicted to this?
Did the Blue Star people have so many weaknesses for his father to exploit?
Comprising the 'War Fairness' wasn't an easy feat, usually requiring the involvement of external major powers like the Holy Silver Secret Court.
What merit do the humans of Earth possess to once again gain the favor of a major power and intervene?
However, Morgan still maintained a serious tone during the call, "No problem, Father. The Hymn can ensure absolute fairness and justice. Send me the evidence of Earth's humans violating the 'War Fairness Principle,' and I will present it to the Hymn."
"Thanks, son. I appreciate the effort."
Manina ended the call.
Although his son would earn less "call fees" in the galaxy, these fees were still significant. Even a small reduction could save a substantial amount of psychic energy.
After the call, Manina organized the content he wanted to sue for and had the AI, Sunshine, pack it and send it to his son.
Prince Morgan temporarily halted his exploration of the secret realm and focused on waiting for his father to send over the litigation documents.
About half an hour later, he finally received the documents and related evidence.
"Let's see what leverage Father has found this time," Morgan Sun muttered to himself, finding a large rock to sit on as he curiously opened the documents his father had sent.
...
The documents Manina sent were about three powerful individuals who had emerged from the Evolution game—Morning Star the Cat, Tina, and Alia.
The video footage showed the three of them flying recklessly above Sun City.
Manina emphasized in the documents that these three powerful individuals from the Evolution game severely disrupted the "War Fairness" between the two warring sides.
Morning Star possessed godlike strength, while Tina and Alia were among the best at the seventh tier.
But that wasn't the most crucial part.
The most critical point was that the three of them could resurrect, and not just once, but multiple times!
Due to their ability to "resurrect multiple times," Morning Star the Cat's effectiveness in the war was almost on par with a peak godlike being! Tina and Alia were also no weaker than ordinary godlike beings!
Their current performance already revealed the extent of their power.
The two humans and the cat could fly above Sun City and, with a single explosion, kill millions of civilians! And they could do it again the next month!
This ability was nothing short of divine!
Because of this, Manina decided to sue Earth's humans for violating the "War Fairness" principle, requesting that their resurrection ability be revoked.
...
After reviewing the documents his father sent, Prince Morgan nodded.
A godlike being who can resurrect multiple times? Morning Star the Cat is practically a game-breaking existence in the war!
Alia and Tina are the same, though their game-breaking nature is slightly less severe.
How did Earth manage to create such a game-breaking ability?
Father's decision to sue the humans of Earth is entirely reasonable. After all, this is equivalent to Earth suddenly gaining a peak godlike being, tipping the balance of the war.
Prince Morgan didn't hesitate and immediately compiled the relevant documents into a "petition" and sent it to the Hymn.
He believed that the Hymn would likely agree to their request.
After all, the ability to "resurrect multiple times" is too game-breaking. Revoking it would make things more balanced.
Prince Morgan stood up from the rock.
He stretched his muscles lightly, preparing to continue exploring the secret realm at his feet.
The last time the Hymn's judgment took about three days to reach him, so this time it shouldn't be any faster. He could explore the ruins while waiting for the result.
However, to Morgan's surprise, he had just stood up when he immediately received the Hymn's response.
Opening the response, he discovered that the Hymn had directly rejected his petition!
The Hymn stated, "After careful consideration, the Hymn Service System has rejected your request. Please refer to the link below for the specific reasons."
The Hymn rejected the petition and sent him a link.
Prince Morgan didn't think twice and immediately clicked on the link.
The link led to a judgment document.
This judgment document was very similar to the one he received last time, both concerning the "fairness of the war between Earth and Skrull in the 'Civilization Ascension Plan.'"
However, the content of the judgment was vastly different.
In this judgment document, someone had filed a lawsuit with the Hymn, stating, "The Skrulls had already landed on Earth, set up bases, and plundered psychic energy a year before the war began, which is extremely unfair to Earth."
The lawsuit was filed ten months ago, right when the great changes began.
In response to this lawsuit, the Hymn ruled, "The Hymn has decided to add a new 'Golden Item' to the Evolution game, with a drop rate of one percent of the regular items. Additionally, a 'Golden Bloodline' race of NPC will be added to the game. The 'Golden Items' and 'Golden Bloodline' NPCs can be taken out of the game by Evolution players."
