The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 387: Descendants of Criminals

Once upon a time, the Moon was as beautiful as Earth, filled with various plants and animals, a picturesque place.

However, at some unknown point in time, the Moon transformed into a prison!

It held those who had committed grave crimes on Earth, and this was during the era when the Qiluo Civilization had just ventured beyond Earth!

Only the gravest of offenders were sent to the Moon, sentenced to life imprisonment or even death. Here, there was no law, only brutal abuse. The prison guards didn't consider the inmates as humans. Every day was filled with casual insults and beatings. If an inmate slightly displeased them, they would suffer.

No one outside cared about the lives of these prisoners. Even when some inexplicably died each year, no one investigated.

Upon entering the lunar prison, they were treated as already dead.

Despite this environment, a great figure emerged, at least in the eyes of the Lunar people's descendants. This person's name didn't survive, but Chieftain had read various messages left behind by others, which pieced together that this individual was quite ordinary.

Initially, he seemed to have been falsely accused and imprisoned on the Moon. His performance had always been unremarkable, but one day, he suddenly erupted, forcefully subduing the prison warden and liberating all the inmates.

Naturally, Qiluo Civilization couldn't let the lunar prison be controlled by an inmate and a massive battle ensued.

The details of what followed were lost to time, but the eventual outcome was that Qiluo Civilization negotiated with this individual and appointed him the new prison warden.

Once he took on this role, the lunar prison gradually improved. No longer did the inmates suffer random abuse from the guards. In turn, the inmates seemed to become more obedient, and harmony was achieved.

Time passed, prison guards and prisoners were replaced in batches, but the warden remained.

At this point, Emperor Kong interjected, "Aren't Humans' lifespans at most a couple of hundred years? How could he live for so long?"

What Emperor Kong hadn't expected was the look Yun gave him, as if he were regarding a fool. "Are you really from Earth? Don't Earthlings know that when one's strength breaks through to the Small Galaxy level, there's a qualitative leap in lifespan?"

"What?" Emperor Kong was shocked. He truly hadn't known this.

Seeing that Emperor Kong didn't seem to be feigning ignorance, Yun felt somewhat helpless. "It looks like Earth has lost more data than even us. Let me tell you then. When any life form breaks through to the Small Galaxy level, their lifespan increases to at least ten thousand years. And with some special things, it can be further extended."

"To my knowledge, a peak-level ninth-order powerhouse from Qiluo Civilization, using certain special materials, managed to extend his lifespan to over a million years."

"You mentioned Qiluo Civilization, what's that? Was it a civilization from Earth?" Emperor Kong was unaware of Qiluo Civilization's existence.

Yun provided a brief explanation, though he didn't know much about it either. He only knew that their ancestors were alive during the time of Qiluo Civilization and were sent to the lunar prison.

Only then did Emperor Kong realize that Earth had previously given rise to such a powerful civilization. Unfortunately, no matter how powerful a civilization was, it couldn't withstand the passage of time. If not for Lunar people revealing these details, he might never have known.

Of course, Yun couldn't possibly know why Qiluo Civilization had vanished. Such classified information wasn't something the lunar prisoners would be privy to.

In summary, while the Moon had turned into a prison, the quality of life there had improved significantly.

However, at some point, the prominent figure disappeared, and chaos ensued in the prison. Eventually, the vegetation on the Moon's surface withered and vanished, forcing the Lunar people to take refuge underground.

This way of life persisted for countless years.

Initially, Lunar people were born with the ability to see, but one day, newborns started being born blind, unable to perceive their surroundings. Only when they became eighth-order powerhouses could they break this curse.

Indeed, being born blind was seen as a curse by the Lunar people. The specific reason remained unknown. Even their ancestors had no clue.

"There must be a reason for this blindness. I don't think it's an issue of evolution since your eyes still exist, just unable to see," Emperor Kong said.

As an Emperor, he possessed a fair amount of knowledge.

Yun suddenly realized, "Oh, I see. Can my people recover their sight?"

"I can't guarantee that, but with Earth's scientists, they'll eventually help you solve this issue."

The next step, the migration of the Lunar people, was already decided. Even Su Chen hadn't initially anticipated that he would be taking a hundred thousand Lunar people back to Earth.

However, with the occurrence of the events on Yan Yun Star, he believed that bringing the Lunar people back wouldn't pose any significant problems.

The actions of the Lunar people persisted for about five days. After all, the area wasn't very large, and at most, a Level 2 Base City covered the surrounding region.

"Are these all the Lunar people?" Emperor Kong looked at the Lunar people before him and asked Su Chen.

At this moment, these Lunar people were standing inside the base Su Chen had constructed. If it weren't for Yun standing in front of them, these Lunar people might have kneeled in fear.

"No, there are still a few missing," Su Chen chuckled.

After dispatching his Soldiers to search, he eventually found some scattered Lunar people living in another underground area. Their lives were even more miserable. Su Chen surmised that these individuals had dispersed when they originally went underground.

Afterward, Su Chen sent his Soldiers and remotely controlled Tanks to search. It was almost certain that no Lunar people remained in the area, so he used the Hyperspace Teleportation Device to send them to Earth.

When these Lunar people learned they were about to return to their homeland, Earth, they were overwhelmed with excitement, tearfully joyful. Even Yun, an eighth-order powerhouse, felt emotional.

In a flash, all the Lunar people, accompanied by some Humans, were teleported to Earth. Su Chen chose Yan City as their destination, the capital of the Red Alert Empire!

Human Emperors from other regions who received news had long been waiting there. It was an open area, and in the blink of an eye, a group of Lunar people had joined them.

"Who would have thought that after the appearance of Humans from another star system, now Lunar people have emerged? It seems Earth's future lies in the universe," Western Emperor said with a beaming smile.

"But how should we treat these Lunar people? Should we treat them the same as citizens of the Empire? Can Humans truly accept them?" Western Emperor expressed some concerns. (To be continued)
