This plot unfolds like something out of a fantasy novel; it's simply too fantastical.

After gradually accepting this fact, Zeng Tian, ​​like most Chinese people, began to be curious about things related to the other world.

What is the scenery like there? How do the people there live? What are the local customs and traditions like? How is it different from Earth? Besides monsters, are there any other magical things there?

In short, there are far too many questions in the minds of the Chinese people right now.

These past two days, when Zeng Tian went to the market to buy groceries, even the uncles and aunties at the market were chatting about related matters.

Besides reports about Qindao City, the internet is also full of news about other worlds.

Many video bloggers and article bloggers have started to discuss and create videos about other worlds, and their content often includes speculations about what other worlds are actually like.

There are also military bloggers, commentators, and experts in related fields analyzing the important strategic significance of popularizing the alternate world for our country.

The online discussions have been ongoing in waves.

Among them, the remarks of military video blogger "Insight into the World" attracted the most attention. As a big blogger with tens of millions of fans across the Internet, Insight into the World's remarks on a certain social platform always cause huge discussions in the comment section.

Zeng Tian also pays close attention to this blogger named "Insight into Heaven and Earth." This blogger is in his forties and used to work in the propaganda department of the military. He later became a video blogger, popularizing military and political topics to the Chinese public. He quickly became popular because of his bold, rigorous, and accurate remarks.

Of course, besides the blogger's bold and rigorous statements and analyses, the most important reason why Zeng Tian paid attention to this blogger was that this "Insightful World" was the first celebrity to leave a comment and agree with his post that went viral across the internet.

Tonight, Insight into the World will be holding a live dialogue with official media on the topic of the highly anticipated alternate world. Zeng Tian specially gave up writing before bed after dinner to make time for the start of the live broadcast.

Around 8 p.m., as soon as the live broadcast started, Zeng Tian and millions of netizens flooded into the Insight into the World live broadcast room.

At this moment, Insight into the World was already sitting in the studio with the host from the official media.

After a brief opening, the host immediately posed the key question for the day.

"Hello, Master Insightful Heaven and Earth. In the past few days, there has been a lot of discussion online about other worlds. What are your thoughts on this?"

Insightful Heaven straightened his suit and said with a smile, "This matter is of great significance to China."

"Is it of great significance? Teacher, could you please explain it in more detail?"

Insightful Heaven and Earth smiled, but instead of explaining immediately, he asked the host a question.

"A world completely different from Earth, what does that mean?"

The host paused for a moment: "New environment, new soil, new things?"

Insightful Sky nodded: "Yes, but not entirely. For ordinary people, the new world is indeed due to these new things, but for the nation, what is ultimately more important than these is new resources. This significance outweighs everything else. With new energy, there is more capital to develop new technologies. With new technologies, there is a ticket to the future, and a voice in the future world."

"However, as our planet has developed to this point, we have already explored most of the resources of our own planet. If we humans want to develop further, we need new energy sources and new technologies. The universally recognized solution is to fly out of our planet and explore other planets in our universe. However, with the space technology that we humans currently possess, it will take many years to achieve this."

"Under such circumstances, the existence of another world becomes extremely precious and important. To us, another world is another planet, or even another universe. We don't need any troublesome process to reach this new planet or universe; we can simply travel back and forth between the two places at any time by passing through a space teleportation channel. How could the significance of obtaining new energy sources at such a low cost and high efficiency not be significant?"

At this point, Insightful World smiled slightly again: "The only entrance to the other world right now is in our inland sea, the Bohai Bay. To be honest, if I were the United States or those countries that are in cahoots with it, I would be panicking right now. Given the nature of the Americans, I bet a bunch of them are already sitting in a circle inside the White House presidential palace discussing how to deal with us."

A soft laugh came from the live stream, and people applauded again for Diaoyu Tiandi's bold remarks.

Zeng Tian was also watching with great interest on the screen.

However, at that moment, his social chat software, which was running in the background, started beeping with a series of urgent notification sounds.

"Huh? Who's looking for me?"

With a hint of doubt, Zeng Tian opened the backend, and the next second, the group chat of the Political and Military Enthusiasts Association popped up.

Landmine Club Member: [@Zeng Zhongyutian, is Old Zeng still around?]

Landmine Club Member: [@Zeng Zhongyutian, is Old Zeng here? Old Zeng, come out quickly!] X2

Zeng Zhongyutian: [What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry to find me?]

Landmine Club Member: [Something's happened.]

This sentence immediately caused an uproar among everyone in the group.

Crazy144: [Huh? Landmine, weren't you abroad? What happened?]

Bugle calls out: [Yeah, weren't you abroad?]

A member of the Landmine Club commented: "[It only happened overseas.]" [Screenshot]

Zeng Tian clicked on the screenshot with a puzzled look. It was a screenshot of a foreign article. With his excellent foreign language skills, Zeng Tian quickly understood the content of the article.

This is a report from the Washington Post of the United States titled "[Revealing the So-Called Truth About Another World]", which is filled with slander against China.

Zeng Tian's temper flared up immediately.

A member of the Landmine Society commented: "Now, both online and offline, there are related reports everywhere overseas, and more and more questions are being raised."

Zeng Zhongyutian: [I was just watching Master Chachatiandi's live stream, and it seems that what Master Chachatiandi said is true. Countries like the US can't sit still anymore, but this time they acted very quickly.]

A member of the Landmine Society commented: "Although they acted quickly this time, they have already achieved initial results. The condemnation of us on foreign websites is constantly increasing. This afternoon, even the official accounts of several of our embassies abroad were deliberately targeted and attacked on foreign websites."

Crazy144: [What? You can tolerate this?]

Bugle calls out: 【Damn these Western dogs!】

Member of the Landmine Club: [Old Zeng, I tagged you for this. Your previous post on the forum has reached an all-time high in popularity, and you're quite well-known there now. If you were to launch a call to action for an expedition to the international internet, it should attract a lot of attention. What do you think?]

Zeng Zhongtian: [No problem, we'll do it! But now that the US has already made its move, the most we can do is help the country stop a large number of online trolls; the rest is up to the country.]

Crazy144: [Trust the government; what we can detect, the higher-ups will detect even sooner.]

Just as Zeng Tian was preparing to post an urgent message about the online army's expedition to foreign websites, in front of the Capital Hotel in Beijing, Ivan was waiting for three guests who were very important to China.

Shortly after, a convoy of cars stopped in front of the gate. Security personnel immediately got out of the cars, opened the doors, and led the people out.

Ivan greeted him with a smile.

"Welcome, everyone, to China. How do you feel?"

Qin exclaimed, "Although I've been here before, it still feels so magical."

Ivan smiled and said, "If you're willing to take a break, you can come often."

Ayaka Kamisato looked around with curiosity, yet she still politely nodded to Ivan, saying, "Your Highness."

Ivan nodded and said, "Please don't call me Lord Wangfu here. Miss Linghua is here on behalf of Inazuma, so please just call me by my name."

“Yes, Mr. Ivan.”

On the other side, Ningguang, who had just gotten out of the car, had a bright look in her eyes: "I remember Mr. Ivan once told me that China and Liyue have many similarities. At the time, I was a little skeptical, but after coming to China today and seeing it with my own eyes, I found that it is indeed true. Especially that group of buildings we passed by earlier, it gave me a feeling of returning to Liyue."

Ivan laughed heartily twice.

“That’s our China’s Purple City, an ancient building. When I have some free time in a couple of days, I can take Miss Ningguang on a tour of China and let her see our customs and culture. But everyone is tired from the journey today, so let’s go have a meal first.”

"The Grand Elder is waiting for you all in the hotel lobby."

"please."

Chapter 435 The Source of Confidence in Standing Tall Against the West

At 11 p.m., in front of the Capital Hotel in Beijing, after the banquet, Ivan, along with the Grand Elder and other officials, saw Qin, Ningguang, and Ayaka Kamisato out.

Ningguang, representing the three, shook hands with the Grand Elder and said, "It is an honor to meet Your Excellency the Grand Elder. I believe that the cooperation between our countries will surely achieve perfect results."

The Grand Elder laughed and said, "Then I look forward to our future cooperation."

After exchanging greetings, Ningguang and her two companions boarded a special car prepared by China and traveled with the people who had accompanied them from Teyvat to their accommodations arranged by China. They would stay in China for a few more days afterward.

"See you."

Seeing Ivan waving to Qin through the window, the Grand Elder chuckled and made a teasing remark.

"Young man, you need to hurry up."

Ivan smiled somewhat awkwardly and didn't continue the conversation on that topic, instead turning to talk about the banquet that day.

Ivan said, "Elder, actions have already begun abroad."

"Yes."

The Grand Elder nodded: "The Senate has just received news that public opinion is beginning to shift. Their operation this time is the fastest in history, but it is still within our expectations."

When the Senate decided to broadcast the existence of another world live to the world, Chinese think tanks and advisory groups had already predicted all the possible actions that the Western bloc, led by the United States, might take in the future.

First, they denied the existence of the other world and accused China of fabricating lies. Then, they used their advantage in public opinion to manipulate international public opinion to put pressure on China. After that, they forced China to disclose specific information about the other world, allowing the "international investigation team" to enter the other world to pave the way for the United States.

The Senate believed that as long as the politicians of the United States were not stupid, they would most likely do as described above, because it was a typical open strategy. Whether or not the Chinese government disclosed information about the other world, it would not harm the United States.

If China makes it public, it will be forced to give the United States tickets to this alternate world; if it doesn't make it public, the United States will use this as an excuse to suppress China.

Faced with such an unavoidable conspiracy, China made a simple choice: to confront it head-on and resolutely refuse to reveal the entrance ticket to the other world.

You wanted to punish me? Come on, let's see who falls first this time!

Jean, Ningguang, and Ayaka Kamisato are representing Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma respectively in their trip to China to further deepen cooperation based on the Pan-China Teyvat Organization.

Although the land area of ​​the Three Kingdoms was not very large compared to the overall size of China, the exploitable resources were surprisingly abundant.

It's fair to say that the truly fascinating part of Teyvat is its underground world.

After six months of exploration and calculation, the abundance of resources in Teyvat far surpasses that of Earth; the continent of Teyvat can be described as small in size but rich in energy.

Take Mondstadt, which already had a relatively complete cooperative relationship with China, as an example. Mondstadt and China have been cooperating on resource development for half a year. However, the exploration and discovery of Mondstadt's resources by both parties in the past six months is less than one millionth of its resource reserves.

This is truly an astonishing number.

Of the resources developed so far, 80% have been used for the development and reserves of the Mondstadt people themselves, while the remaining 20% ​​have been exported to China. This 20% alone is equivalent to a year's worth of trade with a resource-rich nation on Earth.

The above only represents the resources of Mondstadt, and does not include the more resource-rich Liyue and the untapped Inazuma.

Besides resources, the completely different technology tree system from Earth is also an amazing treasure trove. In just six months, scholars from China and Teyvat have achieved astonishing technological progress by combining their technologies. The speed of this technological progress can not be described as light speed.

From the perspective of China, all of the above are what China needs. From the perspective of the Three Kingdoms, they also need a large amount of China's modern technology and industrial products for development. This is a great thing that benefits all four parties.

Some might argue that Teyvat has so many resources, it wouldn't hurt to invite the entire planet to join in its development, so why create such tension and constant conflict between the planets?

If Ivan were to answer this, he would only reply with three words.

Why?

First, the World Gate to Teyvat is located in the Bohai Bay, an inland sea of ​​China, which is Chinese territory. On Chinese territory, China should naturally have the final say; there's no reason for outsiders to comment on what's on our land.

Secondly, if the Gate to the World had appeared on US territory instead of Chinese territory, would US have shared it with the world? Anyone with a sound mind knows that's absolutely impossible. If the Ansar people possessed such noble character, they wouldn't have started attacking China now.

Third, and most importantly, is the aura of destruction. Given the selfish and profit-driven nature of the Onsar people, they might accelerate the spread of this aura, potentially leading to the destruction of both Earth and Teyvat. Ivan had already witnessed this firsthand in his previous life.

Therefore, in the face of the ever-increasing pressure from the Western bloc led by the United States, there is no third way but to either bow down or confront them head-on.
