Chapter 836: Chapter 560: The Cataclysm Descends (Part 2)

The transportation ship that Golden Cauldron and others were aboard had to return.

Upon returning, the captain of the transportation ship reported the incident.

Consequently, the high officials of Paw Claw Star immediately convened a meeting.

Star Lord “True” personally chaired the meeting.

True looked at the ministers below and frowned, saying, “Recently, our transportation ship encountered a massive cosmic organism suspected to be an iron-based life form in space. It’s said this cosmic organism destroyed a star in an instant.”

As he spoke, he gestured behind him.

Virtual screens immediately displayed the footage captured by the transportation ship.

All of Paw Claw Star’s high-ranking figures looked up.

In the footage, there was a massive “monster” too large to be entirely captured in view.

Additionally, the screen showed the destruction of the star, with a terrifying cosmic creature rising like a giant dragon.

Compared to the light from the star’s explosion, the body of this cosmic organism was indeed possibly larger than the star system itself.

Witnessing this, the high-ranking figures all had their pupils shrink.

They knew what such a colossal iron-based life form meant.

It meant that if not handled properly, the entire Milky Way Galaxy could face its greatest catastrophe ever!

The Minister of Military Affairs broke the silence with a serious expression and spoke first: “Great Star Lord, based on my years of battling in the cosmos and having seen countless cosmic organisms, I believe this terrifying cosmic organism is beyond any technological force’s capabilities. I think we should immediately seek intervention from Earth by Land God or the Super Power Legion, otherwise, relying on our technological strength, we absolutely can’t match this iron-based life form.”

“Yes.”

“We should immediately ask Land God or the Super Power Legion to intervene.”

“Otherwise, if this cosmic organism truly comes to our star system, Paw Claw Star will be destroyed.”

“I support the Minister of Military Affairs.”

Several high officials nodded in agreement.

The Minister of Finance, Su Zang, expressed concern: “Our Paw Claw Star is just a frontier planet. Are Land God and the Super Power Legion really willing to help us here? Even if Land God and the Super Power Legion are willing to come, should the iron-based life form truly target us, it’s likely our star system will be destroyed before they arrive. Therefore, in my view, we should immediately evacuate Paw Claw Star and then call for help from the Galaxy Alliance.”

“That’s right, the iron-based life form is too close to us.”

“What we need to do now is evacuate to ensure our safety.”

“If we evacuate, what will happen to the planet’s entire population?”

“Exactly, should we abandon the populace?”

“We Paw Claw Star people would rather stand and die than live on our knees!”

A group of ministers agreed with the Minister of Finance, while others opposed.

Each side had its reasons.

One side believes no one can stop this terrifying cosmic organism, suspected to be iron-based, and evacuation is the best option. As the saying goes, where there’s life, there’s hope.

The other side believes fleeing alone as solitary leaders holds little meaning, and prefers to stay with billions of citizens, betting that the iron-based life form won’t come or that Land God and the Super Power Legion will arrive sooner.

Simply put, the Minister of Finance harbors the mindset of saving oneself regardless of others’ fate, thinking as long as the high officials are safe, that’s all that matters.

Others refuse to be “solitary leaders” and naturally don’t want to evacuate Paw Claw Star.

True also sees reason in both sides, and after much consideration, he tapped the conference table with a “bang bang” sound, saying, “Quiet down.”

Both sides ceased their arguing.

True slowly said, “Since this suspected iron-based life form has entered our spiral arm sector, whatever happens, it isn’t just a matter of Paw Claw Star alone. I personally think we should report this matter to the Spiral Arm Interstellar Alliance or the Galaxy Alliance, then the powers in the Milky Way can discuss and give a resolution.”

“The Star Lord makes a valid point.”

“This matter should indeed first be reported to the alliance headquarters.”

“If the Galaxy Alliance or our Spiral Arm Interstellar Alliance tells us to evacuate, we will evacuate. If they ask us to hold our ground, we’ll remain.”

“Hmm, gathering the power of the entire Milky Way, a solution might be found, perhaps without needing Land God or the Super Power Legion.”

Everyone agreed with the Star Lord’s proposal.

True didn’t waste any more time, and immediately prepared the image data to transmit to the Spiral Arm Interstellar Alliance.

…

The news was rapidly reported layer by layer, soon reaching the Galaxy Alliance.

Venerable Lupar, Didan, Dapu, Saint Garo, De Kuerde, and the Supreme Leaders of the four major spiral arms took this very seriously, immediately convening an emergency video meeting, ultimately deciding to continue concealing the news and increase military presence to “divert trouble eastward.”

The Galaxy Alliance wanted to hide the news to prevent panic across the Milky Way.

Unfortunately, they acted too overtly, prompting speculations from various planets, and eventually, some vague details leaked and were reported by the “River Entertainment Network.”

In an instant, the whole Milky Way learned of this still not entirely confirmed news.

Then, even more alarming news came from the Triangle System.

It turns out that before the iron-based life form arrived in the Milky Way, it had visited the Triangle System and destroyed a spiral arm slightly smaller than the Orion Arm!
