Universe Infinite Canteen
Chapter 762 - 762: Knowing It Is Useless

"Is it really necessary to deploy so many people just to incorporate Earth into The Grand Alliance? After all these years, Earth has always been irrelevant to The Grand Alliance. Until today, nobody has paid any attention to it." Ma Lu said, spreading his hands.

Yiyi knew that what Ma Lu said was true. The reason they, along with Yan Wu and the group of Different Dimension smugglers, were able to stay on Earth was not due to their great strength but because The Grand Alliance simply did not care about this place before.

Earth did not have any special resources or powerful races. The level of technological development here is fairly good, but compared to the top few technological Planes of The Grand Alliance, it's hardly impressive, with no particularly coveted technologies.

So the successive Councilmen of The Grand Alliance mostly didn't even know of Earth's existence.

Not to mention forming such a luxurious team to collectively come over for inspection.

"Is there anything on Earth worth their grand mobilization?" The Black Mountain Goat frowned.

"The most crucial point is, with the military power of The Grand Alliance, if they really set their sights on something, they'd just send a Starship over to snatch it; there's absolutely no need to seek consent from the Earth Autonomy Management Committee." Lu Hua Chicken also gradually came to a realization.

"Yeah, Motti just finished dealing with those disobedient Ares people; why would they be so gentle with us? Our strength is far inferior to those Ares people." The kangaroo was similarly confused and perplexed.

At that moment, Yiyi suddenly thought of something and asked Ma Lu, "What was the name of that doomsday scenario of the Multiverse you mentioned a few days ago?"

"Skulder?"

"Right, Skulder. If that's true, it could explain why these people have come here." The wombat's eyes flickered.

"They didn't come to negotiate any kind of autonomy cooperation with us; they came to seek refuge on Earth."

"Ah?" Lu Hua Chicken was startled by this statement, its head's stability couldn't be maintained and jerked backward violently.

"That can't be right. The rebellion of the Ares people was quelled in less than a month. The military power of The Grand Alliance seemed to be at its peak; how could they fall from grace so quickly.

"Even if that Skulder is real, you have to encounter it first to know if it can be defeated. To run away without even fighting, that's too cowardly."

Ma Lu reminded, "Motti was once detained by Ivan VI, he might have witnessed the battles between the Ares Warriors and Skulder first-hand."

"You're suggesting that Motti has had the thought of fleeing since that time. But what good would it do for him to run to Earth? Are you saying that Skulder won't come to Earth?" The kangaroo still felt the explanation didn't make sense.

Yiyi said, "Forget it, stop guessing. I'll just go ask him directly."

Having said that, he didn't wait for the others to respond and pushed open the door of the glass room, walking out.

Seeing the wombat return so quickly, Motti was also somewhat surprised and wiped his mouth with a napkin, "President Yiyi, what's the outcome? Have you reached a decision?"

"The world is coming to an end, isn't it?" The wombat laid it out directly.

"Why would President Yi Yi ask that?" Motti was quite surprised.

Yiyi, however, did not look at the Councilman of The Grand Alliance but instead turned his gaze towards those who came with him; the two Vice Speakers and Dalia had good control over their expressions, and Motti's son Jiya also looked completely clueless.

From his previous performance, his acting skills shouldn't be as good as those seasoned politicians, so it's highly likely that he truly didn't know.

When Yi Yi shifted his gaze to the others, this time quite a few of them gave themselves away.

Especially Dr. Diego, the scientific advisor, who couldn't help but start wiping the sweat off his forehead once again, and, to cover his nervousness, even took off his glasses and bowed his head pretending to look for a cloth to clean them, not daring to make eye contact with the wombat.

Seeing this scene, Ma Lu and the other four little animals from the Earth Autonomy Management Committee already had their answers.

The Black Mountain Goat cursed on the spot, "Damn, you have the nerve to talk about cooperation while seeking refuge on Earth, and even swindle us about autonomy? You freeload and expect us to build hotels and resorts for you to live in! Could you be any more shameless?"

Jiya became furious upon hearing this, immediately put down her chopsticks and stood up, saying, "What swindling food and lodging? We traveled thousands of miles to incorporate you, to give you legitimate status, and you don't appreciate it but even suspect us!"

"This is outrageous! Dad, we can't take this insult, let's go back home on the starship. I told you earlier not to come to such a wild and remote place. Once we're back, I'll have Uncle Xu Feng send people to level this place."

As he spoke, he pushed the door to leave but realized he was the only one walking out; the others hadn't moved.

"Let's go," urged Jiya, "Why are you all still sitting there? The restaurant here is good, but there are plenty of eateries owned by Cosmic Chef back in The Grand Alliance Universe."

Motti coughed and, seeing that the secret was out, finally dropped the act and admitted, "Well, if things go fast, maybe a month or two, if slow, probably about half a year."

"What about one, two months, half a year?" Jiya was confused.

Ma Lu gasped in shock, "Such a big issue, how long were you planning to keep it secret?"

"What can you do about it now?" Motti countered, "It's too late. There's no way to stop the destruction of the Multiverse now. For the vast majority of ordinary people, knowing about this sort of thing earlier only brings more pain."

"Ah, is the Multiverse really going to be destroyed?" Jiya shuddered in fear, "Dad, don't be fooled by him. Dr. Diego, you agree, right?"

He looked for support to the scientific advisor, who was still there wiping his glasses. He had been doing it for two minutes already, as if there was some stubborn stain on them.

"I've answered President Yi Yi's question, now I have a doubt of my own which I hope President Yi Yi can clarify," Motti spoke again at this time.

"The destruction of the Multiverse is known only to a very few people; even my son has been kept in the dark because I know he can't keep a secret. How did you come to know about it?"

Motti glanced subtly at the scientific advisor while saying this, causing the latter's heart to tighten.

Fortunately, at that moment Ma Lu took the initiative to say, "Stop guessing. President Yi Yi learned about it from me. As for how I came to know... Not long ago, I had the fortune of meeting the Ares Emperor, Ivan VI, and it was he who told me. He said that Skulder would destroy the entire Multiverse."

"I see," Motti nodded understandingly, looking seriously for the first time at the Earthling before him, "But I recall that Ivan VI had been locked up in prison 444, right?"

"That's where I met him," Ma Lu simply admitted.

Jiya sat down suddenly on the floor, pale as a sheet, and murmured, "It's over, the Multiverse is really ending. I... I haven't even become a Councilman yet!"
