Chapter 11. The plan to destroy Earth was devised by Zoffy.
Earth, the mother of humankind, is of paramount importance to those living on it.
However, in the vast universe, there are as many as 130 billion planets that can support life. Earth is not special. It is also very scarce in mineral resources and its surroundings are extremely desolate. There are no life-bearing planets within 200 light-years. It is like an anthill in the Gobi Desert.
"But—human beings are the greatest value."
"That's what the Alien Mephiras said."
In response, Jin Yi retorted—
"Innocent."
Jin Yi mercilessly shattered the delusions of the Mephiras aliens.
"Mephiras is indeed one of the most powerful planets in the observable universe, but don't forget, my friend, there's only one true ruler in this universe—the Star of Light!"
What is a leader? A leader is someone who sets the rules and then lets others explain them.
"Since the Star of Light can legislate to prohibit the use of high-powered weapons, why not add a small clause to the law to exclude Earthlings from the scope of biological weapons?"
The actions of the Mephiras aliens are very similar to players who exploit game bugs during season updates to try and quickly climb the ranks.
Going against the big players in operations will not end well. Minor skirmishes are fine, but if they really dare to exploit bugs to gain a large advantage, do they really think the Land of Light won't retaliate with heavy blows?
The truth is, strip away the alien filter. The Mephiras aliens, who seem to be high above the rest on Earth, chatting and laughing with the top elites and easily manipulating them, are just ordinary people on their home planet.
Before the dinner, Jin Yi had consulted with Lipia about the relevant information, and the reply was, "The methods are very tricky, but I don't know anyone."
But one thing is certain: most high-ranking and powerful figures operate within the home planet. What kind of important person could be exiled to such a desolate place?
Perhaps he possessed extraordinary talent and ambition, but in the end he was just a frustrated businessman who was exiled to a remote and impoverished area. There were countless people who could replace him.
Jin Yi didn't bother with further pretense and directly uttered words that struck at the heart of the matter.
It's useful for eight billion Earthlings, right?
The Kingdom of Light will remove this bug next season. Forget about using swarm tactics; everyone should just stick to playing Animal Chess!
"Or perhaps..."
These words had an immediate effect; Mavis on the other side was completely speechless and broke out in a cold sweat.
This is the limitation of businessmen; they simply didn't consider this aspect.
"Before we are banned... we can try to deploy human weapons on the battlefield to maximize our benefits—"
"Impossible."
He just wants to make a quick buck and run, huh? What a ruthless and unscrupulous businessman.
But even the most cunning fox is now caught in the net, and the more it struggles, the tighter the rope binds it.
The other end of the rope was held in Jin Yi's hand.
"You're really naive, buddy."
Jin Yi played his second trump card.
"Even if you create human-made weapons and Mephiras achieves a great victory, whose credit should it be?"
The Earth is a gold mine, that's true, but for a tiny shrimp like you to try and swallow it whole, isn't your appetite a bit too big?
Mephisto is not the same as all the Mephisto aliens.
After signing the agreement, he will undoubtedly be the most powerful president of Earth. However, with such a great achievement, the home planet cannot ignore the situation. What will happen to Mavis then?
Each promotion earns a reward of 500 yuan, then you're sidelined until someone else becomes the President of the World.
The Mephiras aliens, with their connections and qualifications to claim this great achievement, would never have appeared on such a remote planet.
"All that hard work and busywork, only to benefit someone else? My friend Mavis, you can't be that kind of idiot, can you?"
"And you only remember eating meat, not getting beaten."
The Star of Light will not tolerate the abuse of bugs, so the script should be that the Mephiras aliens use Earth's weapons to wreak havoc, and then be banned at the speed of light. But that's not enough; there should be punishment for using bugs.
The Land of Light will settle scores after the fact and fix the bug with a single regulation. Will the Mephisto aliens, who took advantage of this bug to gain a large advantage, have a good ending?
Who is the right person to be scapegoated? It's so hard to guess!
Jin Yi almost couldn't help but laugh, looking at Mavis as if she were a corpse.
"Are you still clinging to illusions?"
"Thanks so much for saving me, brother!"
The shout of "Brother!" was so sincere and genuine that the Mephiras alien's hands trembled so much that he almost spilled the nearly empty coffee in his cup.
Once the filter of ignorance was exposed, the cunning Mavis was able to guess the crux of the matter, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Where on Earth are there gold mines?
It's a death warrant!
"Let me give you one last piece of news."
Looking at the restless Mephiras aliens, Jin Yi casually tossed out his last trump card.
"Zoffy has arrived on Earth."
"Wait, Zoffy, that Zoffy?!"
The final bomb jolted the Mephiras alien off his chair, completely ripping off his hypocritical mask and revealing a complete lack of decorum.
"Yes, Zoffy has made something of himself now, becoming an inspector in the Land of Light."
Although they are not in the same universe, Zoffy is still a high-ranking and very successful leader. He is the captain of the Space Garrison in the Land of Light and a Space Inspector on the Planet of Light.
Cold-blooded and ruthless, impartial and incorruptible, he judges all violations of the rules in the universe, both terrifying and admirable.
"That means..."
"Yes, you guessed right, Mechanical Zetton is coming."
What?!
That super weapon that can obliterate 200 light-years in a single shot?!
"Thank you so much, brother, for saving my life!"
Mavis frantically scratched at her meticulously groomed, slicked-back hair, a stark contrast to her composed demeanor when she first entered the coffee shop—once a poised and confident success.
After Mr. Jin's series of pointers, he has now transformed into a guy who runs away with buckets!
His initial arrogance followed by his later obsequiousness is laughable.
"This...this...this...this...I...I...I..."
Since it was a luxury private room, no one could appreciate the performance art of the Mephiras alien. After spinning around like a madman for half a circle, he took out his wallet from his pocket.
He's about to become the President of Earth, and the entire planet is a goldmine; there's no need for that ridiculous split-the-bill system anymore.
But who would have thought that this vault was filled with high explosives? One wrong move and you could be blown to pieces!
Hurry up and say thank you, Belial!
"Brother's kindness is truly immeasurable... Here's what I'll do: I'll go settle my bill first. If we ever meet again in the universe, just give the word, and I won't utter a sound, even if it means facing mountains of knives and seas of fire!"
Jin Yi, on the other hand, appeared very composed.
"Sigh, it would be too embarrassing for you to treat me. Just put this meal on the Furt team's tab. You can go ahead now, brother."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Mephiras alien didn't even bother with disguise anymore. He transformed into a ball of light and flew out of the window, getting smaller and smaller until he became a speck of light in the sky.
This Earth is for whoever wants it, goodbye!
"That's amazing!"
The members of the Foster team were dumbfounded.
They eavesdropped on the entire conversation from nearby, and what they thought would escalate into a major confrontation was defused in just a few words.
"I never thought aliens would also be involved in politics and personal relationships..."
The Akihisa team members were sweating profusely; tech geeks didn't know much about this kind of topic.
"...This is probably a common ailment of intellectual beings."
Asami, a team member, complained.
"But who exactly is Zoffy, the guy Mr. Jin mentioned at the end? How could he possibly scare the Mephiras aliens so much that they fled in terror?"
"I don't know much about it, but we have Ultraman here, right? Let's ask."
"Kaminaga? Kaminaga, a member of the team?!"
She raised her voice and called out her partner's name.
However, no one responded.
