Chapter 747: Chapter 741: Terrifying Conclusion

This is a terribly frightening prospect.

In such an alliance, differentiation can occur easily. If the Flame Nation just promises to supply several countries with Gene Optimization Fluids, the whole alliance would collapse in an instant. In that situation, it would be hard to predict which side’s alliance would have the greater power. Not to mention, the current weaponry of the Flame Nation is not merely on par with the North Federation, but it has entirely surpassed it.

Finn Lewis did not take these people’s thoughts to heart. He knew that the middle-aged man’s presence was to promote him. And, probably, it was also to attract firepower towards Lewis because many of the people present today were there for the gene optimization fluid. Now, with the middle-aged man’s presence here, people will surely shift their focus towards him and not concentrate as much on Lewis.

Following the wedding, there was a buffet dinner, which was an opportunity for everyone to interact.

“Your Highness,” the voice of Luna Starfield rang out.

“What is it?” Finn asked.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

“Miss Jasmine Davis has returned. She’s brought along three transport spaceships; I estimate that the total population is above three hundred thousand,” Luna Starfield responded crisply.

“Hmm, how’s the environment on Mars?” Finn nodded.

“Most parts of the crust have stabilized and won’t go through major changes. I’ve marked out several dangerous areas which could be managed later. In a month or two, the entire planet will go through a quiet period, and the forest coverage on Mars is increasing rapidly. As for the fauna, we’re continuously releasing animals onto the planet,” Luna Starfield stated clearly.

“So you’re saying that Mars has formed a basic ecological balance, right?”

“Yes, including the ocean where we’ve released a Planetary Adaptive Genetic Modification Group, a dynamic balance is basically formed. Our current detections don’t show significant problems, it’s perfectly fine to settle a few hundred thousand people there,” Luna Starfield confirmed.

“Initiate the immigration plan then,” Finn contemplated for a moment. Given that Jasmine Davis and her group had arrived, it meant that his task was completed without any problems. It was time to quickly start the immigration plan from Earth. After all, when the number of immigrants from Earth was too small to start with, it would then be a struggle to integrate these people. While a few hundred thousand people doesn’t seem like much, their worldly knowledge easily exceeds anything the people on Earth could offer. Therefore, Lewis’s plan is to eliminate any potential threats at the bud. The best option would be to integrate them amongst the local population at a time when they’re still wary and cautious.

A few years later, by which time these immigrants have assimilated, any attempts to stir up trouble would be futile. To be honest, the reason why Finn agreed to Jasmine Davi’s request in the first place was due to their background. Luna Starfield’s investigation showed that these people were refugees from distant places, and they lived in very harsh conditions. Despite coming from the advanced Galactic Federation, their life was nothing but misery. However, these space refugees can now lead a better life on a complete planet.

They would be cautious and wouldn’t entertain ideas of superiority, which is why Finn allowed them to stay. If ordinary citizens of the Galactic Federation came here, they would consider themselves superior, making it impossible for them to integrate. It’s unlikely they can assimilate in a short period of a few decades.

In such a situation, Lewis would never let it happen. For instance, even for the present society, disregarding individuals from the North Federation, a commoner from the Flame Nation, in its early stages of development, if they were to go to Liga State, or East Mountain Kingdom or West Mountain Kingdom, they would feel superior than people from these countries. So, it’s strange, but when you feel superior, you certainly won’t feel the need to fit in.

“As you command, Your Highness,” responded Luna Starfield.

Right after Luna Starfield’s voice died down, Zero’s voice popped up once more, “New task: Complete your studies at the Galactic Federation’s Noble Academy in seven months and expand your territory to be no less than that of a minor royal family. Your territory should not be the smallest among the royal families. This task cannot be refused. If you refuse, everything you gained will be forcibly taken back.”

“Damn it,” muttered Finn Lewis. He stood stock-still, unable to resist cursing. Although compulsory missions had appeared before, none had ever been as demanding. A task like this essentially threatened his life. Lewis knew how vast the territory of the royal family was. Now, it was required for him to accomplish the task in just seven months, refusing was not an option.

And, no rewards were mentioned either. It appeared the task just ended like that, “Zero, I need an explanation.”

“You’ll get an explanation when you complete the task. For now, only decision of whether to complete or not is to be made”, Zero’s cold, emotion-free voice replied.

Lewis was taken aback by the severity of the task with its potential implications. No one in his position would refuse. For now, he did not have a choice, he had to move forward.

“I accept the task,” Lewis declared seriously.

“Good Luck,” said Zero, before disappearing.

Finn’s expression darkened considerably. It seemed as though he had to speed up a lot of things. Seven months was an extremely tight schedule. Now, processing matters on Earth alone would require a month of his time. This meant that Finn had only six months to complete Zero’s task. And currently, he had no clue about how to proceed.
