Chapter 1590
Judging by the number registered at the time of entry, people were organized in a long line in front of the station.
In an open area near the station, more than twenty people knelt in front of power armor. They were trembling uncontrollably, and there was not the slightest sign of life on their pale faces.
The magazines were loaded, and the black barrels were aimed straight at their heads. The officer ahead ordered, and shots rang out in unison.Their bodies fell to the floor, pools of blood began to flow from under the bodies. The corpses were then quickly loaded onto a truck, and the truck drove off in an unknown direction.
These people were all criminals who took advantage of the riot in front of the train station and were executed by the Sky Merchant Marines.
Perhaps it was because the spilled blood of twenty criminals shocked the noisy crowd, or perhaps it was because Jiang Chen’s words before he left made the people with a conscience to be ashamed, again there was no riot, and everyone was silent with their heads bowed, slowly moving forward along with the queue.
Even if it was difficult to accept death calmly.
But at least most people have returned to calm.
If the fire of civilization goes out in the next second, then at least live your last days with dignity.
In the open area in front of the center of the colony , except for the soldiers who maintained order in front of the station, almost all the soldiers in Heavenly Palace City were summoned here by Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen remained silent in front of the drooping soldiers, and then began to speak.
“If you want to leave, I won’t blame you.»
Our fleet has been defeated. This is not an enemy that can be defeated with guns and bullets.”
“You, despite your soldier uniform, are only human in the first place. I will not ask you to fight an invincible enemy, and I will not unreasonably ask you to stay on this earth just because of your military rank, ask you to shed your last drop of blood.”
” It is up to you to decide whether to fulfill your mission until the last.»
“If you want to see your family one last time, I will respect your choice.”
“Those who want to leave, can go to Hong Zewei to reserve a seat.”
“I have only one requirement, and that is that you must leave after everyone else. After the people are evacuated, you can take the last flight back to Earth…”
The result was beyond Jiang Chen’s expectations.

Initially, he thought that at least half of the people would decide to leave, but the soldiers standing in front of the center of the colony expressed their determination with deafening cries. At first, it was a single person, and in the end, the roar that could dispel all fear was the only sound that could be heard in the center of Heavenly Palace City.
“FIGHT TO THE END!”
Death was inevitable if they stayed, but could they live even if they left?
Even if they had given up, the ending would not have been pleasant. Instead of crying with your family back on Earth and going through the miserable situation of parting, it was better to stay here as a soldier and fight until the last moment. At least their family on Earth would be proud of their glory.
Jiang Chen was very pleased with the soldiers that they decided to stand to the last.

It was impossible to evacuate everyone.
The time remaining for the residents of Heavenly Palace City to evacuate was less than two weeks, but it took three to four days to travel back and forth between Heavenly City and Heavenly Palace.
Despite this, there was nothing to complain about.
In the end, in order to win those two weeks, the Earth Fleet had to be sacrificed.
Just as the Heavenly Palace was busy evacuating ordinary people, on a distant Earth, “tickets” to SS Origin were distributed according to the contribution of each defense alliance member country. It was incredible that the countries so quickly came to a consensus on an international issue. Probably because everyone understood that any wasted second could reduce their chances of survival.
The list was already made.
From the beginning, these tickets were not associated with ordinary people.
However, in the spirit of humanity and at the same time, to avoid any major crisis last month, Member States passed nominal Resolution 107, that is, twenty tickets were issued and twenty lucky people were selected to board the ship by lottery.
After the decision was made public, even before the lottery began, the price of these 20 tickets had already risen to 20 billion global dollars per ticket.
But is there really a person who will sell it?
By the time the colonization ship arrives on Earth, the money will be no different from toilet paper.
Supply shipments were taken from the space elevator to Sky City and loaded onto the SS Istok from the port.
The target was Alpha Centauri, 4.22 light-years from the solar system. Based on the latest Skytrade space observation technology, it has been confirmed that there are terrestrial planets suitable for human survival.In addition to the more than 2,000 crew members of the Origin, a large amount of colonial equipment has been loaded to ensure that these colonists can adapt to new conditions as quickly as possible after they reach their destination.

At the same time, at the Heavenly Palace.
The soldiers stationed on Mars began to set up defense lines in Heavenly Palace City.Each conduit was equipped with a titanium alloy gate so that when an area was lost, they could quickly move to another area and lower the gate to stop the advance of the Harmony army…
Of course, all this was just a guess.
Even Jiang Chen himself didn’t know if Earth tactics would work on aliens.He didn’t even know if those bugs were going to send ground troops to Mars or just fire the Klein Particle Cannon on Mars to paralyze all the electronic equipment in Paradise Palace.

Three days later.
At the Boston Steel Group mining site, which was the entrance to the geocentric mine, Golovin the First, standing there like a sculpture, slowly raised eyes on the dust that rose not far away. A rover gradually appeared over the horizon.
The rover stopped in front of Golovin the First, Jiang Chen jumped out of the rover, and Lilith was behind him.
If you don’t come, I’ll have to leave.” Golovin the First looked at Jiang Chen, who approached him, and said in an emotionless voice, “Your senseless lack of punctuality is killing my patience.”
“Don’t say that,” Jiang Chen shrugged shoulders, smiled slightly and continued, “At least I’m here, right?»
“But a lot of time was wasted.” Golovin the First said in a monotonous voice, then he turned to the entrance to the ruins: “If we really want to leave, even if there is only one day left, we can still leave.”
“True, -whether? Looks like I’m still early.” Jiang Chen laughed.
Golovin the First ignored him and headed towards the entrance.
Jiang Chen looked at the figure’s slowly receding back, and the relaxed expression on his face gradually faded. He took a deep breath and followed him.
