Swallowed Star: The Zerg Overlord

Chapter 79: Hong's Decision

"I understand!" Hong closed his eyes, seemingly deep in thought.

Just moments ago, Qin Mu had shown Hong and Lei Shen the overwhelming swarm of Zergs through his auxiliary computer. In Qin Mu's words, these Zerg swarms were the product of some cosmic genetic technology. Moreover, Qin Mu revealed that he had a way to enter the universe, allowing Earth to enter the cosmos at the right opportunity.

Hong was moved. With Hong's insight and wisdom, how could he not understand that what Qin Mu said was correct? A scattered Earth had no place in the terrifying arena of the universe!

Even Lei Shen, at this moment, looked serious. They knew that once they made a decision, Earth would immediately be engulfed in war. Countless people would die because of it.

"Unification comes at a cost, but it is a cost worth paying. The history has always shown this. My Limit Dojo and I will fully support your plan." Hong said calmly. In the end, he made his decision.

"My Thunder Dojo will also support your plan." Lei Shen said solemnly.

"Then, what do you need me to do?" Hong's eyes were fixed on Qin Mu. Qin Mu's plan was indeed good, but he would keep a close watch on Qin Mu to ensure the plan stayed on track.

"If possible, you only need to have the domestic Dojos cooperate with the military's unified command. You don't need to do anything else," Qin Mu shook his head. He didn't need them to do too much. This war was exactly what the Zerg swarms sought. In the war, the Zerg swarms would achieve true evolution.

The reason he needed to communicate with Hong and Lei Shen and gain their support was not for their combat strength. It was more for a stable rear and to allow Luo Feng to be trained, naturally obtaining the inheritance.

"Once we go out, I will announce the start of the war to all forces. In three days, China will begin its military campaign to reclaim the lands occupied by monsters." Qin Mu said.

"Good, I will notify the Limit Dojo to have the domestic dojos cooperate with the military's actions." Hong was not a hesitant person. Once he made up his mind, he acted decisively.

Hong didn't care much about personal power and authority. His mind was mostly on cultivation and the concern for the fate of all humanity. In the original timeline, after entering the universe, Hong hardly managed the Limit Dojo anymore, devoting all his energy to cultivation. As for Lei Shen, even less so. After obtaining the inheritance from the other world, he wandered the universe. The two had different personalities but were both obsessed with cultivation, hardly caring about power and status.

While the three were talking, underground, Babata, who was constantly monitoring Qin Mu, looked even more displeased. In its eyes, Qin Mu's actions were nothing but a lie to legitimize the appearance of the Zerg race on Earth, a cover for the Zergs to start a war.

"Has Qin Mu been charmed by the Bug Queen? He actually wants to start a war with this method."

War was the fastest way for the Zerg race to grow stronger.

"I must quickly choose a successor! With their expansion speed, the monsters on Earth won't last long!" Babata's thoughts were racing. If they couldn't leave Earth before the Zerg race took over, it would be hard to leave. Once the Zerg swarms reached a certain level of strength, they would eventually discover the buried spaceship underground.

In the sky, the cabin door of the Limit Dojo's fighter jet opened, and Qin Mu stepped out first, followed by Hong and Lei Shen. Looking around, the remaining spirits of nature below had already been collected, but the fighters of the major forces were still there. Even the HR Alliance's people hadn't left.

Not only did no one leave, but more personnel arrived, including a giant disc-shaped airliner sent by the Chinese military. A large number of researchers with professional instruments began to detect the environment of the island. Laser cannons were unloaded from the giant disc-shaped airliner, turning the place into a war base.

The anomaly of Misty Island had been noticed by everyone. Such a small island had so many spirits of nature. No one would let go of such a treasure trove.

Of course, the real reason the major forces didn't leave was that they wanted to know what Qin Mu and Hong were discussing. They were eager to find out the plan. Seeing Qin Mu come out, representatives from the major forces appeared, waiting for Qin Mu to speak.

Nodding slightly to Councilors Jia Yi with joy on his faces, knew that with Hong and Lei Shen's support, the likelihood of the plan's success would greatly increase, and the difficulty would significantly decrease.

"Everyone, I believe you are curious about what Hong and I discussed."

"It's simple. We, China, will be the first to strike against the monsters! We will reclaim the lands occupied by monsters! In three days, we will launch a full-scale war against the monsters. We will drive out all the monsters and restore human glory." Qin Mu announced seriously to the surrounding strong forces.

"What? A full-scale war??" Someone exclaimed.

"How can this be? Once we break the agreement with the monsters, a massive monster tide will occur, and we won't be able to handle it."

"Three days? That's impossible; we can't make any preparations in time!"

"No! We can't start a full-scale war! Our strength is not enough to fight the monsters!"

***

Some exclaimed in shock, others opposed, and almost everyone was stunned by the news. Many here, like Councilor Jia Yi, had experienced the Great Nirvana era and had come out of the war-torn times. They understood the terror of the monsters better than anyone.

"China will issue a first-level war mobilization order and begin the counterattack against the monsters." Ignoring the others' clamor, Qin Mu said calmly.

"First Speaker, Second Speaker, will the Limit Dojo and the Thunder Dojo support China in launching a full-scale war?" Ice Emperor Mo Henderson, with a difficult expression, asked Hong and Lei Shen.

The United States, surrounded by the sea, was almost encircled by ocean monsters. Once the war started, the pressure would be unprecedented. Not to mention counterattacking the monsters, they could barely defend themselves with war bases and laser cannons.

It wasn't just them; the European Union, India, and Russia, which one dared to say they could withstand the monsters' attacks? The five major countries were relatively strong, but what about the African base? They needed to hire mercenaries for their usual defense.

But these were not Qin Mu's concerns, or rather, this was what he needed to achieve through war. To force humanity to truly unite through the monsters.

Looking at Mo henderson, who had a grim expression, Hong nodded and said. "The Limit Dojo will support this full-scale war against the monsters, and I will personally join the fight!"

"The Thunder Dojo will do the same!"

Hearing the affirmative answers, Mo henderson's expression became even more difficult, and everyone from the major forces looked incredulous. Since the Great Nirvana began, it was Hong and Lei Shen who ended the full-scale war. Now, these two were announcing the start of another full-scale war. How could they not be angry and fearful?

The three strongest individuals on Earth with absolute power had united their front. When China, the Limit Dojo, and the Thunder Dojo stood together, all other forces combined couldn't match their strength.

If it were before the fight with Hong, no one would care about Qin Mu's full-scale war, but now it was different. Qin Mu was practically the de facto number one. The weight of his words was incomparable.

"The specific details will be announced later. War has begun." Qin Mu declared to the surrounding strong forces.

Finished speaking, Qin Mu didn't wait for their reactions and returned to China's fighter jet. Councilors Jia Yi also entered the fighter jet without staying anything, flying back to the country, leaving only the giant disc-shaped airliner and the relevant personnel.

Looking at the still noisy crowd, Hong simply said. "Go back and prepare for war!" Then he arranged for one of his three personal guards, Iceberg, to stay on Misty Island and also boarded the fighter to leave.

Even though the major forces were still in disbelief and found it hard to accept the sudden outbreak of full-scale war.

"War is about to begin; how are the preparations going?" In the rapidly flying fighter jet, Qin Mu asked Jia Yi.

"Everything is ready, including the one million regeneration potions you provided, which have been distributed to the various military regions. We are just waiting to announce the start of the war." Jia Yi took a deep breath, his expression somewhat excited. He had been waiting for this day for too long.

"Good. Then, when we return, you will announce the start of the war."

Qin Mu nodded. The regeneration potions Jia Yi mentioned were produced by the nest. When he could independently manufacture regeneration potions, the nest production was much faster than the military.

Having Jia Yi announce the start of the war could better boost the morale of the military and the people. Although Qin Mu was the strongest, Jia Yi was still the most recognized and authoritative figure in the military.

"Good, once we return, we will announce the start of the war and issue the war mobilization order, putting the entire country under military control."

Jia Yi answered. In fact, the war mobilization order had already been issued, just not publicly announced. Many retired veterans had been secretly recalled for training, waiting for this day. Most of the injured soldiers had also been restored and rejoined the war.

"War is about to begin."
