After being reborn, I was turned into a slave girl by a princess.

"Well... you could say that. Many Supreme Beings consider us a major threat, but perhaps it's also thanks to Alice? What we're facing isn't the full power of the Supreme Being civilization."

"what?"

"Because Alice is also considered a deity, she has the qualification to enter the world of the Supreme Beings. So she is like a virtual idol who debuted in the form of an ant, telling the Supreme Beings that our human civilization is part of the ecological cycle, and we are all cute and hardworking black ants. We should not exterminate them."

"Alice, she..."

"However, although Alice can persuade some of the Supreme Beings to stop, she cannot convince all of them. Therefore, we must have a battle with the Supreme Being civilization, at least to let some of them know that we are not beings that can be bullied at will. Just like wild bees, if you don't take protective measures, we can still sting you viciously."

"..."

"However, this is just a metaphor. In reality, the Supreme Civilization is a four-dimensional civilization, which can influence time to some extent. Therefore, many details are not so simple. All you need to know is that we are not facing the complete form of the Supreme Civilization."

“I think I understand now. No wonder we haven’t seen any concrete evidence of the Supreme Civilization along the way, only some cold, mechanical creations… So what is this ‘unknown nature of the conflict between the alien civilizations’?”

Lonnie had, of course, heard a lot about the alien civilization.

To be precise, the reason why Castor became like that, and why there are so many physically powerful demons and monsters in this world, is all the work of the alien civilization.

As a weapon of the Otherworldly Civilization, the "Otherworldly Fragment" almost turned the royal capital, Insolia (Cersei's hometown), into a barren wasteland, much like a nuclear bomb.

and so……

"Yes, the alien civilization was originally our enemy. It was the culprit that caused the deaths of billions of humans. But now, it is one of our hopes."

"hope……?"

"Yes."

Xiao Ling nodded and continued in her calm yet clear voice, "Perhaps according to our human values, it's hard to accept this kind of thing. But since ancient times, organisms have evolved through selection and elimination."

"Ah, I know that! That's one of the principles of our post-apocalyptic independent kingdom, isn't it? Even if we don't eliminate them, we still need to transform them. Anyway, there's no way out if we stay in the same place."

The eight-tailed fox seemed to have found a kindred spirit and said excitedly.

"However, in the last era, something very puzzling happened: the more advanced and developed a country was, the lower its birth rate became, and its population showed a negative growth trend."

"Oh?"

"Some people believe this is a social problem caused by excessive social pressure. However, similar situations have occurred in developed countries with ample social welfare, such as those in Northern Europe. On the contrary, people in poorer countries tend to have a high birth rate, sometimes even more than ten children!"

"..."

"If we consider the entire planet as a whole, then the uncontrolled population growth is essentially like cancer cells. Therefore, some scholars at the time believed that the alien civilization actually emerged for the sake of ecological balance."

"!"

"Because humans have no natural enemies, they can occupy the top of the food chain and reproduce and multiply indefinitely. However, if humans cannot find a way to the universe before Earth's resources are exhausted, then humans will die completely on this planet, and will also face a great collapse of civilization and a great destruction of society."

"Uh……"

……

The eight-tailed fox's narration startled Lonnie.

Although she wanted to say that with nuclear power plants and solar energy, humanity should be able to have sufficient resources.

but……

Solar power is very expensive, and its maintenance costs are also extremely high. If all electricity were replaced with solar power, the electricity bill would reach an alarming level.

And nuclear power plants are even more dangerous; even a minor conflict could turn them into weapons of mass destruction that could destroy the world.

Moreover, compared to bioenergy, electricity has higher requirements for technology and the environment, and its range is shorter.

Early cutting-edge technologies, such as Formula 1 racing and airplanes, primarily used fossil fuels. Electric racing cars couldn't even reach Formula 3.

……

"So, Eight-Tailed Fox, do some people believe that the Alien Civilization is the salvation of humanity?"

Zhou Mixue tilted her head and asked in the same way.

……

"Hmm, I guess that's how it is? Isn't there a saying circulating among Sister Cecilu—'Destruction and redemption are inherently one'?"

Candel looked at Cecilia and offered her opinion.

……

"But the monsters of the Otherworldly Civilization did indeed kill our compatriots? And they didn't seem to be like General Caster, trying to save the world..."

The girls exchanged bewildered glances, seemingly pondering the impact of the alien on humanity.

Xiao Ling closed her eyes slightly and said:

"In the past, the alien civilization also deliberately selected the elite among humans and attracted them into its own civilization system."

"!"

"However, after a demon lord named Baphomet joined the Alien Civilization, the Alien Civilization's plan was completed, and they lost interest in humanity. Now they basically no longer interfere with the current state of Earth, and no new monsters have ever come to our world."

“Baphomet…I think I’ve heard that name before.”

"Is that the Vengeful Demon Lord? He seems to be the rival of the Sun Goddess Alice. I remember reading in the history books that they had a fierce battle."

"Yes, that battle also marked the complete end of the old era and the beginning of the new era. Legend has it that Baphomet was sealed away by Alice, but now it seems that he may not have died, but has gone to the Otherworld."

……

Is that so?

Although Lonnies didn't know much about the past, hearing her companions say this, she knew that Baphomet was definitely no ordinary person.

Just how strong is he?

Will he fight me?

Someone who can fight Alice to a draw, I'm afraid I'll have a hard time defeating her, right?

……

Thinking about this, Lonnies felt somewhat scared, but just then, Elusia pinched her ear and said, "Silly girl, what are you worrying about?"

"A... Elusia..."

"Even if you can't beat us, how could we possibly lose if we're together? Don't forget, even Castor is one of our partners now."

"!"

"We are now a combination of the strongest people of the modern era and the future. You should be confident that you can march towards victory with everyone, right? Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing, and you would make Xiaomeng and Xiaoling laugh at you."

"Ah, ah..."

Lonnie blushed, and she realized that she had been a little frightened by the enemies she had just learned about.

However, just as Elusia said.

The enemy is powerful, but our side is not weak either. The girls have many trump cards up their sleeves!

and so……

Lonnie clenched her fist and said encouragingly:

"Don't worry, everyone. If we work together, we will definitely be able to overcome the difficulties."

"No worries, I'll work hard with Xiao Luo!"

"Yes, let us move forward and unleash the power of the future upon this world."

"Come on, everyone! We absolutely cannot lose!"

And so, after mutual encouragement, this strategic meeting came to a successful conclusion.

……

The ship continued sailing for about another hour.

And then...

Then the azure planet came into view.

It's like a dazzling sapphire, adorned with green and white jade... Just one glance at it evokes a sense of nostalgia and an irresistible longing for home.

And right next to Earth, there is a small, pure white planet, accompanying her.

Although its surface is bare and has many huge impact craters, it acts like a loyal bodyguard, always protecting Earth and never abandoning it.

……

"Is that... the Lunar Defense Headquarters?"

"It looks somewhat similar to the future. Is that the Moon Dream Sea over there? Construction has already begun!"

……

A thousand years later, the girls also came to the moon.

Compared to the future, this place undoubtedly lacks much of the industrial feel of robots, but it has gained a touch of the grandeur and magnificence unique to wartime.

Just like...

……

"What is that? It's so big!"

"Su-Ling, don't say such unladylike things... Hmm, it really is big, how can it be so big!"

Although Zhou Mixue wanted to discipline her younger sister, she was completely stunned when she saw that thing.

Because that thing looks like a giant stick protruding from the surface of the moon, and it must be tens of thousands of meters tall!

……

"Hmm, that thing, I think it's called a planet-destroying cannon?"

Xiao Meng blinked and said this.

"A planet-destroying cannon?! Isn't that the thing Caster was messing around with? We didn't see it when we came to the moon, did we?"
