The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 221 220. War, never stops

It is the year 2025 in the Pacific Rim dimension, and also the 15th year of the new era of the Wandering Calendar.

Marshal Steker, the chief executive of PPDC, suffered from multiple organ failure due to radiation-derived diseases caused by excessive radiation exposure when driving a giant mecha in his early years.

He eventually passed away with his adopted daughter Mori Mako and son-in-law Liu Qi by his side.

After an emergency meeting and consultation, the PPDC officials finally approved with a high vote the appointment of Liu Qi as the new chief executive of the PPDC.

Marshal Steck devoted almost his entire life to the security of the Pacific Rim.

He is recognized as the most representative human hero who made great contributions during the "Monster War" period.

He is also a legendary figure that people admire from the bottom of their hearts.

On the day of Marshal Stack's funeral, his funeral was broadcast live on television and radio around the world.

All major countries and regions around the world lowered their flags to half-mast as a sign of silence.

People throughout the Pacific Rim even spontaneously took to the streets and marched to various "Hunter Bases" to present flowers and candles to express their reluctance to part with Marshal Steck.

In this case, Liu Qi, the "son-in-law of Marshal Stark" and the "pilot of the Dangerous Wanderer", is a meritorious hero of the Monster War.

Of course, he was also loved by people in the Pacific Rim region because of his love for him.

It was natural for him to succeed as the Chief Executive of PPDC.

At the same time, with the promotion of the United Nations government and the assistance of artificial intelligence, the influence of PPDC is rapidly spreading beyond the Pacific Rim.

South Asia, Africa, Europe...

In the Pacific Rim plane, more and more countries and regions on Earth are beginning the process of "great unification".

The leading organization is PPDC, which made great sacrifices and contributions in the "Monster War".

But many people know that behind PPDC stands the huge coalition government.

Although the United Government has never expressed its desire to use force to control the countries around the Pacific Rim.

But the indigenous forces of the countries knew clearly that as long as the coalition government was willing, they would not even need to send coalition government soldiers.

The army of unmanned mechas controlled by artificial intelligence and swarms of tens of millions of drones are enough to deal with the world's indigenous armies.

Not to mention the space battleship fleet of up to hundreds of ships.

The United Government is willing to give the Pacific Rim Earth sufficient autonomy to allow Liu Qi, the "indigenous person", to rule on its behalf.

This was an extremely restrained and respectful move by the coalition government.

As for whether Liu Qi would be inclined to a coalition government in the future, even the most confident natives of the Pacific Rim would think that this was definitely nonsense.

The United Government has given so many "fig leaves", which shows that it is quite respectful to the indigenous peoples of the Pacific Rim.

There is no doubt that the coalition government has completely crushed the enemy militarily.

The "Monster War" was also ended by the United Government itself. The troops in the Pacific Rim plane did not even have the ability to go to the Pioneer home planet to fight.

Even the most confident indigenous people cannot deny the United Government's contribution to the Pacific Rim.

Therefore, even if some indigenous people doubt that Liu Qi is a puppet of the United Government, it cannot prevent PPDC from taking over the military, politics, and economy of the Pacific Rim global region.

The indigenous forces who are obedient, sensible and reasonable will hand over power honestly.

Those who try to resist and bargain will be hit by a "double-edged iron fist" from the coalition government and the PPDC.

The Pacific Rim plane is the target of the United Government's Fourth Plane War. Bringing this plane under the rule of the United Government is of course a necessary part of the plan.

It will take some time for the naturalization of Aboriginal people to take place, and the coalition government is not in a hurry.

On the other hand, the biological department led by Dr. Ashford also expanded its size and had a broader research field during the war between the United Government and the Pioneer civilization.

In addition to the existing T virus research department, biochemical superpower department, black water matter research department, and alien life form research department.

Several completely new departments have also been added.

The giant alien research department, the pioneer and engineer civilization biotechnology exploration department, the perfect human proto-gene department, etc.

In addition, two powerful weapons were born: the army of alien biological war machines and the interstellar legion.

It can be said that the biological department led by Dr. Ashford has become the most important single department under the coalition government.

Its importance is almost comparable to that of the Department of Energy.

Among the many sub-departments of the Ministry of Biology, the "Perfect Human Prototype Gene Department" is undoubtedly the institution that the United Government attaches the most importance to.

During the Plane War, the original genes extracted by Alice's chosen warriors for Liu Peiqiang became the transformation template for the Star Legion warriors.

The United Government thus gained the most powerful human legion force in history.

After the plane war ended, the focus of the "Original Gene Department" shifted from the military field to the civilian field.

The Pioneer civilization's powerful "genetic inheritance" technology can not only play a role in the military field, but also on the bodies of soldiers.

It is even more important for the large number of ordinary people under the coalition government.

This ability to pass on knowledge "from generation to generation" at the genetic level is what the coalition government dreams of.

This will mean that the more than 20 billion ordinary people under the coalition government will become "useful talents" in the true sense.

In a sense, the coalition government does not even need to invest resources in basic and higher education.

Relying solely on "genetic inheritance" and the people's later "self-study behavior", countless backbone talents can be born to promote the continuous innovation and development of the United Government's science and technology and culture.

In the short term, three to five years, or five to ten years, there may not be any obvious changes.

But after one or two generations, or three or four generations of efforts, the energy unleashed by more than 20 billion citizens of the United Government in basic disciplines and higher education will thoroughly promote the United Government's civilization and technological progress.

This is definitely a great feat that will benefit the present and future generations.

It is also the greatest confidence for human civilization when facing other more advanced alien civilizations in the future.

Soon, after a meeting of the United Government Conference, it was decided that all the people under the rule of the United Government who had received the [blessing of democratic election].

After reaching the age of 16, a more detailed "subject examination" will be conducted based on academic performance, military theory, and teaching performance.

The results of the "subject examination" will determine which type of "Gene Original Transformation" the students will receive next.

Students with strong physical fitness and high athletic talent will be focused on training in the military field, and the "Gene Primarch Transformation" they receive will also focus on the Gene Primarchs in the direction of soldiers and warriors.

Students who have strong logical thinking ability, interest in a certain subject, and learning talent will continue to undergo genetic modification with top scientific research and academic figures under the joint government, and the future will focus on training in scientific research and academic fields.

If you have neither athletic talent nor show advantages in scientific research or academic fields.

The United Government also has the direction of "Genetic Primarch Transformation" in engineering and art to offer.

At the very least, they can train an ordinary worker for the United Government to work on the second plane: industrial planet, or the first plane: agricultural planet. The United Government is like a high-speed vehicle with precise operation.

All the people are like the manufacturing parts of a car.

It is true that engines and gearboxes require excellent parts to be assembled.

But without the cooperation of other basic parts, a car cannot run properly.

Even "art students" who are useless in the eyes of many people can often become the leather seats and high-end audio systems in this car.

With their help, the coalition government can truly become a sophisticated machine without any flaws.

At the same time, in order to maximize the elimination of the "fairness" issue that the people under the coalition government are most concerned about.

Every citizen of the United Government who reaches the age of 16 will receive a fair and open template for "Gene Primarch Transformation".

The United Government has meticulously selected the most elite individuals from all walks of life among the more than 20 billion people under its rule as "Primarch candidates."

Take scientific research and academic categories for example. In the field of "biological science" alone, there are more than a thousand top biological science elites from various dimensions, countries, regions, and races, including Dr. Ashford.

The results were selected through artificial intelligence analysis and a joint government scientific community review committee.

In the end, the genes of 96 people were selected, and after a series of screening and fusion, they became the "first generation perfect gene prototype template" of the "biological science" type.

A 16-year-old student who has passed the "subject examination" and demonstrated his advantage in "biological science" will, together with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of other students, undergo the transformation of this "first-generation biological science gene prototype template."

Other students with different focuses will also receive genetic template modifications according to their respective focuses.

This is a social welfare provided by the coalition government to all citizens.

The template for genetic modification is the most perfect welfare that the United Government can provide to its people at the current level of technology.

Individualized differences will be reflected in citizens' study and life before the age of 16, as well as their self-digestion and absorption after undergoing genetic template modification.

And in the subsequent reproduction, it is passed on to the next generation through genes.

This decisive policy implementation even attracted the attention of the Supreme God.

Under His witness and the supervision of artificial intelligence, there is no human favoritism or corruption.

The perfect gene template transformation plan, as a social welfare of the united government, was soon implemented among tens of billions of people in the four dimensions.

The only problem is that the recipients of this social welfare only exist among the citizens of the coalition government who are blessed by democratic elections.

This has caused dissatisfaction among many people who have not yet accepted the "blessing of democratic elections."

After the latest plane war ended, the number of blessed people increased greatly, and at one point exceeded 10 billion.

However, for a coalition government with a population of more than 20 billion, only about half of the people can enjoy this benefit.

[Blessing of Popular Election] is something that countless ordinary people have been longing for. Now with the addition of the benefit of "Original Template Transformation", ordinary people are even more envious and jealous.

Dr. Ashford's team felt helpless about this.

If possible, they also want to implement the "Original Template Transformation" plan for the entire population.

However, this transformation places considerable demands on the physical and mental strength of the people.

Only those citizens who have received the [blessing of popular election] and whose bodies have been strengthened can safely pass through the transformation process.

If the fragile body of an ordinary human being wants to undergo transformation, it is no exaggeration to say that it is a life-and-death struggle.

In the Pacific Rim plane, billions of people who have just been brought under the rule of the United Government cannot enjoy it.

Why can't the natives of other planes who have long accepted the rule of the joint government enjoy it either?
The original effect of "Blessing of Election" created a gap between the citizens of the coalition government and the indigenous groups.

Coupled with the "Gene Progenitor Template Transformation", even the most Buddhist indigenous people became nervous and panicked.

The gap between citizen groups and indigenous peoples has become increasingly stark.

This is far greater than the gap between the rich and the poor in society.

It has even been elevated to the level of "race" and "civilization".

After the blessing of "genetic topic template transformation", after a few generations, the advantages of the citizen group compared to the indigenous people will be raised to an astonishing level.

The advantages engraved at the genetic level can even be said to have differentiated the citizen groups and the indigenous people into two different races, or even civilizations.

Perhaps in the future, apart from similarities in appearance and body shape, the gap between citizen groups and indigenous peoples in other aspects will be even greater than that between humans and pioneers.

Realizing this, indigenous groups became uneasy.

The coalition government did not expect that the first "large-scale social unrest" was not caused by the plane war, but by the "unfair distribution of social resources and social welfare."

The coalition government has no good solution to this problem.

The number of places for [popularly elected blessings] is limited.

And priority will be given to indigenous groups who have contributed to the United Government during the plane wars.

This is the "national policy" to maintain the "priority of plane war" and cannot be changed.

Countless Aboriginal groups collapsed instantly.

"We also support the United Government, and we also want to contribute to the Plane War, but the United Government does not give us a chance..."

The plane war in the Pacific Rim plane has just ended, and it is unknown how long it will take for the next plane war to begin.

The next blessing of the plane war may be twenty or thirty years later.

'We can't let our future generations lose at the starting line!'

With such thoughts and concerns, hundreds of millions of indigenous groups began to take the form of "non-violent non-cooperation marches and demonstrations" to express their protest to the coalition government.

"We need to start the next Plane War as soon as possible!"

"I can also work for the coalition government!"

"I would rather bleed and die on the battlefield than be eliminated in obscurity!"

……

The coalition government has always attached great importance to guiding the people to support the Plane War and take pride in participating in it.

But I didn't expect things to develop to this point today.

The public is excited and it is difficult to go against public opinion.

The coalition government finally stated that it would consider preparing for the next plane war as soon as possible.

This slightly calmed the uneasiness and anxiety in the hearts of the indigenous groups.
