The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 369: Cosmic Apocalypse!

"Are you sure that other planets have also experienced an Apocalypse?" Su Chen found it hard to believe.

It wasn't just Earth that was facing this situation; apparently, other planets were too. However, the way Apocalypse manifested was different.

While Earth faced Mutant Beasts and Mutants in its Apocalypse, Yan Yun Star dealt with natural disasters and the Ghost Clan.

"A few planets connected to Yan Yun Star are in the same situation. According to what they said, all the planets they've contacted are in crisis. I've also heard that there's been no communication from one planet, suggesting that it might have..." Lisi trailed off, but Su Chen understood.

If you couldn't establish communication with a planet, it either meant that everyone had died or the planet itself was gone.

The power required to destroy an entire planet was something beyond Earth's current capabilities.

Afterward, Su Chen asked more about Yan Yun Star, and Lisi answered all his questions. According to the feedback from his psychic powers, Lisi's words weren't lies.

Likewise, Lisi learned about the general situation on Earth from Su Chen.

"I didn't expect that even this planet would have enemies, Mutant Beasts and Mutants, right?" Lisi pondered.

Out of sympathy for a shared plight, Lisi believed life on this planet must be tough. However, when Su Chen transported them to Su City and she saw the cityscape, she was flabbergasted. This was a city in the midst of an Apocalypse?

In terms of technology and other aspects, it was almost no different from their Yan Yun Star. A proper metropolis, remarkably clean and orderly, with people strolling on the streets, smiling.

Lisi was perplexed. Wasn't this world in an Apocalypse? Then why were these people all smiling?

Su Chen brought them to a place specifically for hosting guests. Due to the vastness of the area and sparse population, buildings had grown in size, with a hotel capable of accommodating tens of thousands of residents.

The other people were led away to be entertained. Only a select few, including Lisi, were allowed to dine with Su Chen.

"They're people from other planets?"

Leng Yuwei, dressed in a purple gown that exuded elegance, arrived by Su Chen's side.

Despite not having a wedding ceremony, others regarded Leng Yuwei as an empress after she was recognized as the ruler of the Empire. Her status was now only second to Su Chen's.

Seeing Leng Yuwei, Lisi and the others were stunned by her beauty.

"Yes, haven't you been saying you've never seen extraterrestrial beings? I guess your wish is fulfilled this time," Su Chen chuckled.

With full stomachs and satisfied hearts, Lisi and the others enjoyed delicious food for the first time.

"Your Majesty Emperor, I have a request I'd like to make, and I hope Your Majesty can grant it," Lisi said with great respect.

"Are you intending to settle here?" Su Chen could naturally guess their intentions.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Su Chen's eyebrow twitched slightly. If Lisi knew that the term "wise" had been overused on Earth to the point of mockery, she might not have used it. She would essentially be calling him out!

During the meal, Lisi had learned about the current situation on Earth. Contrary to her expectations, Humans on Earth were now the most powerful force. The other two factions, Mutant Beasts and Mutants, had become vassal races of the Humans. This news surprised Lisi.

It was precisely this that reinforced her desire to live here. With Apocalypse occurring on all other life-bearing planets, Earth seemed to have emerged from its Apocalypse. It was undoubtedly the best refuge.

"If you wish to live here, it's possible, but..." Su Chen's sentence was interrupted.

Lisi's heart raced, and she looked at Su Chen nervously.

"But there's one thing you must agree to. Living here means becoming citizens of my Red Alert Empire. All your actions must follow the laws of the Red Alert Empire. Any violations will result in legal penalties."

Lisi heaved a sigh of relief. That was the only requirement, and for them, it wasn't a big deal. Even if Su Chen hadn't said it, she would have ensured her people followed the rules. After all, they were newcomers. Being able to live here was already a great opportunity.

Just as Lisi was about to speak, a Red Alert soldier entered. "Your Majesty, a person from Yan Yun Star has just offended a female server, attempting an assault, with several accomplices. They've been apprehended. Your Majesty's judgment is requested."

Lisi's face turned pale. Here she was, trying to secure a good place for her people, and these individuals were causing trouble.

Su Chen's expression darkened. "Bring them to me."

Before long, eight people were brought in, bound and on their knees.

"Hu Chong, what exactly did you do?" Lisi's face turned red with anger when she saw him.

She never expected that her most capable subordinate would be responsible for such an incident.

Hu Chong put on an unrepentant demeanor. Even though Lisi reprimanded him, he didn't seem ashamed in the slightest. "Captain, I didn't do anything. I just touched the female server's hand to wipe off some dirt. Next thing I knew, your people had grabbed me. Quickly inform Emperor here and get us released."

"That's right, Captain. We can testify. We really didn't do anything."

Lisi hesitated. Regardless of the situation, they were her people. If she couldn't even protect her own, it would surely sow doubts among the others.

"Your Majesty Emperor, I can offer compensation to make amends. Would you consider..." Lisi seemed to want to minimize the issue.

At that moment, a cold chuckle cut through the air. "Do you remember what I said earlier?"

Su Chen stared at Lisi, a freezing chill in his eyes that almost seemed to freeze her.

Lisi pondered for a moment and then realized. She remembered Su Chen's words from earlierthe condition for them to live here was that they had to adhere to the local laws. It was quite clear that her subordinate had violated these laws.

Violating local laws right after arrivingwasn't that inviting trouble to their doorstep?

Lisi found herself speechless. She really wanted to give Hu Chong a beating. He chose this moment to stir up trouble? Did he want them to lose their place of refuge?

Su Chen didn't look at Lisi; his gaze was fixed on the man named Hu Chong. "Do you think you did nothing wrong?"

"Your Majesty Emperor, you can't falsely accuse an innocent person. I only touched the girl's hand to wipe off some dirt from her clothes. But then your people grabbed me. Hurry, inform His Majesty Emperor and have us released." Hu Chong appeared wronged.

Had Lisi not known Hu Chong's personality, she might have almost believed him.

Su Chen remained silent, waving his hand. A semi-transparent interface appeared in the air, displaying the scene from Hu Chong and his group's mealtime earlier. The technology behind this projection wasn't something Lisi was unfamiliar with; the key was the content it displayedthe scene of Hu Chong making inappropriate advances toward the female server.
