He lives on another planet and is majoring in Earth Science.

A massive roar of sound gathered from the crowd, and everyone's eyes were focused on the blue creature.

His mysterious and profound body holds countless thoughts.

But then he suddenly shouted, "Long live the whole nation!"

Li Ji was stunned.

You didn't shout for help when everyone was suffering so much, but now you know you want everyone to live?
Seeing that the tide had turned in his favor, Li Ji pressed his advantage: "We don't need slogans, we need a concrete commitment."

The blue creature solemnly announced its five-year reform commitment, promising to restore a happy interstellar alliance for everyone.

After the awards ceremony, the leader and Lee Ki went to a corner.

"Li Ji, I want to thank you. You let me see the real Interstellar Alliance."

Li Ji was somewhat taken aback. He didn't know if this was the truth or a lie, or if assassination agents were lurking nearby.

“I know what you’re worried about. You’re wondering why this dictator who has ruled the Interstellar Alliance for tens of thousands of years suddenly had an epiphany? If everything is going so smoothly, what was he doing before? Was he just making empty promises and not going to keep them?”

Li Ji nodded silently.

"Let me ask you a question: Are there any intelligent life forms in this world that can live for tens of thousands of years?"

Li Ji was somewhat taken aback: "The brains of the Barbaradu aliens can live forever."

The other party said, "But the physical body can only live for a hundred years. Moreover, their brains and any physical body have significant rejection reactions, so there is no way to transplant them."

"The life expectancy of the Skani turtles is over 1 years."

"But the Skani Turtle People have a collective dominant gene for Alzheimer's disease; after about 9500 years of age, individuals will no longer retain normal intelligence. Let me ask you another question. Have you ever seen a race like mine in the entire Alliance?"

Li Ji stared at the blue creature before him; he had indeed never seen such a life form before.

"I don't. What do you mean by that question?"

The leader frankly stated, "What I mean is that I am not a living being."

"Then what are you?"

"I am a cloud of concepts. I am the collective will, I am a symbol."

Li Ji's mind was in a state of confusion.

The leader explained, “The Interstellar Alliance was originally formed by 13 planets. After a long period of war and negotiations, they formed a loose alliance. The alliance needed a leader, but for a long time, no one was found who could satisfy all parties. So they created me. I am a cloud of concepts, and I represent the collective consciousness of everyone. You will definitely ask, then why does the current Interstellar Alliance deviate from the vision of most people?”

"That's because although I am a concept cloud representing the collective will, I am not omniscient and omnipotent. I also need to perceive the existence of the collective will."

"Do you know the limit of how many people one person can manage?" Li Ji replied, "I know, it's ten people."

"Are you Earthlings so stupid? The average number of people in the Interstellar Alliance should be 24. To manage more people, we need to form more management systems of 24 people each, eventually covering the entire Alliance's 174 billion population."

The leader continued, “All the information I receive comes from these 24 people. I don’t even know if there are any cleaners in the Leader’s Residence. I’ve thought about this more than once: why my office is always spotless, yet I’ve never seen anyone come to clean it. I once secretly went back to my office after get off work and stayed there all night, but I still didn’t see any cleaners. The next day, my office showed no signs of cleaning. But when I came back after a meeting, the office was spotless again.”

"If this is true even in my nearest place, how much more so in such a vast universe."

Li Ji asked, "Are you trying to say that you've been sidelined?"

“It’s not fiction; I am merely a symbol. A symbol that makes everyone believe that the collective will still exists. A symbol is better than a real person; a symbol is a toy that can be manipulated. They mythologize me, and they also vilify me. I am not human; I have no sense of dignity, and I will not argue about it. Therefore, all those great achievements are mine, and all those heinous crimes are mine as well. The taller and more eye-catching my statue is, the better they can hide and the longer it can last.”

"Interestingly, the skin flakes of the previous leader sold for 3000 million Alliance Coins at the auction. But the previous leader was me, and every leader is me. I don't even have a physical body, so where would the skin flakes come from?"

Li Ji clenched his fists angrily: "Then how could your promise possibly be valid?"

The leader solemnly said, “This is why I want to thank you. The world’s change is not driven by some great figure from the top down, but by every ordinary person in the torrent of the times. You have awakened everyone, built a bridge for their isolated islands, and rescued people from their self-castrating fears. With everyone united and exerting pressure from the bottom up, change is inevitable. Those who try to resist the collective will will eventually fall under it. Let us wait and see.”

-

one year later.

The Earth Sciences office at Milwall University was bustling with activity. Professor Wilde, dressed in a floral dress, beamed with joy and excitedly twirled in the air.

"This year, Earth Sciences has the highest admission score among all majors in the entire college, no, the entire university!"

Professor Biyangde, dressed in a tight-fitting boyish T-shirt and pants, a typical energetic young man's outfit, shook the yellow wig covering half of his face: "Dean, why haven't you changed yet? You're no longer a member of Earth Studies."

Professor Wilde retorted with a laugh, "My heart will always belong to Earth science! So much has changed in just one year. Who would have thought that Earth science, which was almost extinct a year ago, would become a popular subject now? We really have to thank the newly enacted Entertainment Act."

Professor Qi, dressed in JK uniform, lay on a wooden rocking chair and said with a smile, "The Entertainment Act is a really good thing. It has lifted the restrictions on the entertainment industry. The entertainment development of the Interstellar Alliance has been stagnant for so long. Everyone is learning from primitive civilizations. Not only is our Earth Studies booming, but other areas in our Primitive Civilization Research Association are also booming."

His Highness the Crown Prince straightened his blue suit in front of the mirror: "We have to thank our department head, Professor Li Ji! Without his reputation, why would so many people come all the way to Earth to study?"

The office's mechanical door slowly opened, and Li Ji swaggered in: "What are you talking about? It's so lively here."

Professor Wilde descended from the sky with a smile, her floral dress swaying in the wind. She handed over a tablet: "This is your list of graduate applicants for this year. There are many applicants, so take a look."

Li Ji took it and exclaimed, "He Ping, Nini, KK... how come they're all my classmates?"

"They're not like you, an Earthling, who got promoted to professor right away. They still have to study. Earth science graduates have good job prospects now. Companies in the entertainment sector are vying for them. Tongtongtong is getting so many offers that she's practically overwhelmed. If tuition weren't free now, she probably wouldn't want to continue studying."

Li Ji picked up the communicator on the table: "I have some things to take care of at the company, I'll be leaving now." (End of this chapter)
