Chapter 107: Earth’s War God?

The final result of the battle on Lomuda Star was that the Lomuda people lost more than half their population in a single day. Their social structure completely collapsed, plunging them into turmoil.

In this battle, the Star Alliance suffered over a thousand casualties and lost a battleship! However, hundreds of thousands of fully formed Dark Remnants who came to intercept them were completely wiped out.

Among these results, the number of Silver Mechas shot down by Lin Lei alone exceeded the total of the remaining warriors, forcibly accounting for 60% of all battle achievements.

This proud military record did not continue to earn Lin Lei the respect of the Star Alliance warriors. Instead, he was intentionally or unintentionally isolated by them.

No one spoke to him. Everyone put on a cold face when facing him, not even offering a greeting.

When everyone looked at him, there was a deep fear in the depths of their eyes.

This man who came from Earth was simply too strong, so strong that these Star Alliance warriors looked up to him like a high mountain. As Watcher Warriors, they all had their own pride. Facing such an insurmountable opponent, they all chose to respond with coldness to maintain their final shred of self-esteem.

However, on the Galaxy Network, the attitude toward Lin Lei took a 180-degree turn. Someone actually posted all his combat holographic footage onto the public Galaxy Network.

In this completely real combat footage, anyone who saw it would be attracted by the iron-blooded figure in the images and feel curious, until finally feeling shocked.

This shock reached its peak during the Lomuda Campaign. Quite a few people’s impression of the warrior in the footage turned directly into worship. Most of these people were young people from various races.

Even those warriors from various races who considered themselves experts chose to remain silent when facing this holographic footage.

Many young girls in the interstellar civilization were fascinated and crazy about the unhideable flame in Lin Lei’s eyes in the footage. Many females from high-level civilizations even made a special trip to Ao-11 Star just to see Lin Lei’s true appearance.

The entire Galaxy was circulating the story of a super War God from Earth. Earth, too, was covered with a mysterious veil, transforming from an ordinary Life Planet.

The location of the Solar System was considered remote in the Galaxy, but it could not stop people’s curiosity. Overnight, a huge number of Aliens appeared in the City of Hope on Earth.

Because of its backward technology and blocked information, Earth actually became the last place to know this news.

When humans learned of their racial hero Lin Lei’s various deeds from these uninvited Aliens, the expressions on their faces were undoubtedly proud.

“Yes, he has always been the faith in my heart! I should have died at the hands of the despicable Layite People, but he saved me, saved all of us.” The woman who was asked was holding a cute little guy less than a year old in her arms, and her eyes were shimmering with tears.

Another bearded, brown-haired big man waved his thick arms and shouted excitedly: “I still hear people calling him a liar, a conspirator. Those stupid guys don’t think about who brought them the food they eat, the place they live, and even their women. A bunch of ungrateful guys!”

All of this showed that Lin Lei’s reputation had reached a peak in the Galaxy, and his legend was circulating in every corner of the Galaxy.

These external false reputations were established almost overnight, and from beginning to end, the person who released Lin Lei’s holographic combat footage remained hidden behind the scenes.

Lin Lei looked on coldly at this extremely abnormal situation. Whether facing Yan Siyu who secretly ran out from Ao Star, or returning to Earth to face Old Xiao and his group, he made no comments or explanations.

But his heart was clear as a mirror. In the Galaxy, there was only one organization capable of obtaining all his combat footage, and that was the Star Alliance.

The Star Alliance, for some unknown purpose, was molding him into a super hero.

In any case, these measures by the Star Alliance also greatly increased Earth’s popularity in the Galaxy, which was extremely beneficial for Earth’s development. This was also the reason why Lin Lei kept his attitude of an onlooker.

The Star Alliance did not treat Lin Lei unfairly either. Not only did they reward him with a full 500 Contribution Points, but they also raised the Galaxy Network authority of everyone on Earth to a high Fifth-grade level.

Even those 300,000 cloned women had their own Galaxy Network accounts and were injected with nanobots to regulate their bodies.

Lin Lei converted all these Contribution Points into Galactic Universal Currency, totaling 250 million, and invested it all into Earth’s construction.

Trade between Earth and Morentz Star became even more frequent. The Morentz People even established an Earth Trade Department on their planet specifically responsible for commercial dealings with Earth.

After discussing with Old Xiao and others, Lin Lei decided to purchase a Basic Atom Analyzer from the Morentz People. This equipment was very powerful, capable of observing the detailed structure inside atomic nuclei and performing certain operations. It was the core technology of a Fifth-grade Civilization.

If one day Earthlings could independently produce this equipment, it would mean that the Earthling civilization level was just one step away from Fifth-grade.

This was because the various theoretical foundations needed to manufacture the Basic Atom Analyzer, as long as one conducted a little deduction and transformation, and added a little imagination, could further be used to manufacture Warp Engines!

This piece of equipment alone cost Earth 10 million Galactic Universal Currency, and that was the result of Lin Lei personally running to Lorenz Star to negotiate with various high-level officials.

Lin Lei even went to the Niga Civilization, the parent civilization of the Lorenz Civilization, to seek help. Finally, under the pressure of the Niga Civilization, the Morentz People reluctantly sold Earth an eliminated Basic Atom Analyzer from their planet.

When Old Xiao obtained this huge object that was tens of meters high, he was so excited that he didn’t sleep for several days and nights. He threw himself into this equipment, striving to understand its usage and basic principles.

Three days later, Old Xiao appeared in front of Lin Lei with two thick dark circles under his eyes. He did not feel a trace of fatigue but had a face full of excitement.

“I have completely understood how to use it, but the specific operating principles still need to be explored. But with this guy, we can construct materials that never existed on Earth at the atomic level. This greatly accelerates our research progress!”

Lin Lei listened and let out a long breath. Knowing how to use it was good. He was afraid that the thing was bought but could only be left there to look at.

The current Earth population was 1.13 million, and this number increased by hundreds every day. In the foreseeable future, the number of Earthlings would soon double.

This was easily calculated. There was no family planning now. The Earth Government strongly advocated that there was strength in numbers, and if one had more children, they could enjoy more welfare.

As long as every couple had three children, in a few years, the Earth population would break through 2 million. The hastily built City of Hope would surely become more and more crowded.

After discussing with Lu Daolin, Lin Lei decided to start building a second city. In this regard, Lin Lei still contacted the supplier from Orlantis Star and purchased a large amount of memory nanomaterials. This cheap construction material was very easy to use, and its sturdiness went without saying.

There was another happy event. An interstellar business group from Niga Star, a Ninth-grade Civilization, considering the great increase in tourists to Earth, specifically established a route direct to Earth, using a 3-kilometer long Yu-D class spaceship as a shuttle between Earth and Morentz Star.

This situation was what Lin Lei was happy to see. It greatly enhanced the communication between Earthlings and various races, which was very beneficial for broadening human horizons. Only by knowing the gap would they strive harder.

On current Earth, there was only one Tiansuo spaceship, which was far from enough. On the Galaxy public network, the prices of low-level civilization spaceships were very cheap. A small spaceship only cost 5,000 Galactic Universal Currency.

Although these spaceships were a bit slow, they were still products of interstellar civilization, enough to easily take Earthlings to the Moon, Mars, or even fly out of the Solar System.

Lin Lei immediately ordered 1,000 small spaceships and one large Yu-C class spaceship from a super-large spaceship manufacturer.

This Yu-C class spaceship was not used for interstellar navigation but was placed horizontally in Earth’s synchronous orbit to serve as a space station.

Because many experiments and observations could only achieve perfect precision in space, this could also be considered an investment in scientific research.

The current Earth, on the surface, looked no different from an interstellar civilization, but in terms of cultural depth, it had almost none. Various basic industries were still being built, and Earthlings couldn’t even build the atmospheric jet planes they once had.

Lin Lei had a vague premonition about his future. In the near future, he might leave, and Earth would truly become independent, instead of developing under his wing. So now, he was making arrangements for humanity as much as possible.

The Star Alliance, an organization that seemed magnanimous but was actually exclusive, was the forbidden ground of the Watcher Civilization. Initially, Lin Lei was just an alien warrior with some potential and displayed some combat power, so they accepted him with open arms.

But now, he had become a pivotal War God level figure. Lin Lei did not think that the Watcher Civilization still had such magnanimity to let an alien occupy a high position in the Star Alliance.

Lin Lei already felt signs of being excluded by the Star Alliance Guard. For example, he had been back on Earth for a month but had not received a single mission, and Elder Yun didn’t even show his face.

What made it even stranger was that these Star Alliance guys, behind his back, were hyping his image in the Galaxy to a fever pitch, just short of saying that saving the Galaxy couldn’t be done without him.

The problem in this was obvious to any discerning person.

Since the Lomuda Campaign, the Galaxy had been quiet for a while. Apart from the personal worship of Lin Lei, no major events had occurred.

It was like the calm before the storm, just brewing a bigger storm!

This was indeed the case. A month after Lin Lei returned to Earth, he received a mission from the Star Alliance.

On the periphery of the Katzga Star System, a strong gravitational disturbance had appeared. The Star Alliance was dispatching a fleet to investigate this change, and Lin Lei was to go with the fleet.
