Villain? No, I'll catch up with the protagonist after passing the civil service exam.

"Sir, the enemy fleet's energy readings have exceeded the limits of our detectors!" A young radar operator's voice trembled, and his hands shook so much on the control panel that he could barely press the buttons.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Earth Defense Force ripped off his tie and slammed his bloodshot eyes onto the titanium alloy table in front of him.

"Even if they were a bunch of gods who could crush us, Earthlings would never kneel as slaves!" The Commander-in-Chief drew his sidearm and issued his final, tragic order into the multi-band communicator: "Activate all underground nuclear arsenals! Activate near-Earth orbit defense satellites! Earth Defense Force, prepare for a desperate battle!"

Inside the Special Enforcement Bureau's office, however, the atmosphere presented a suffocating contrast.

Zhao Tiezhu held his iconic multi-barreled Gatling gun, looked up at the starships that blotted out the sky outside the window, and his face was twitching uncontrollably.

The bald, burly man swallowed hard, looked down at the firearm in his hand, and for the first time, began to seriously doubt his own fighting ability.

"Chief, these aliens don't even have a deck to stand on, they're just floating in the sky." Zhao Tiezhu complained with a bitter face, "Even if I fire my Gatling gun until the barrel is red-hot, I still can't reach a single hair on their legs."

Bruce, with a serious expression, brought up the win rate analysis model in his tactical goggles, and the large "zero" on the screen was particularly glaring.

"Sir, the enemy's technology is at least three eras ahead of ours." The Dark Knight's voice was hoarse and deep. "From a criminal psychology perspective, they don't treat us as equal intelligent species at all. In their eyes, this is just a one-sided harvesting of resources."

Faced with this apocalyptic situation that could instantly evaporate an entire civilization.

Lu Jingyan remained seated in his large office chair, his deep black eyes showing not a trace of emotion. The man's back was ramrod straight, and his cold, stern face exuded an absolute authority that seemed to control the underlying logic of all things.

He didn't press any nuclear button, nor did he heed the tragic declarations of sacrifice from the defense forces.

Lu Jingyan slowly opened the drawer on his right and took out a thick document that had just been printed and still smelled faintly of ink.

The cover of the document prominently displayed five large, gold-embossed characters: "Draft Interstellar Law".

"Invasion? Enslavement?"

Lu Jingyan opened the thick legal code, his long, slender fingers gliding smoothly over the complex clauses. His cool voice, transmitted clearly through the global broadcast band of the Skynet system, reached the command center of the alien flagship.

"Sirius Colony Fleet, you seem to have a serious cognitive impairment regarding the underlying operating logic of a society governed by the rule of law."

The man raised his head, his pale blue eyes seemingly able to pierce through the endless vacuum of space, staring directly at the alien commander's distorted face.

"Since you believe that power can override the rules, then today I will give you a profound and unforgettable lesson in the law."

Lu Jingyan slammed the draft of the Interstellar Law onto the table with a loud thud.

"According to the latest legal provisions of this Bureau, any unauthorized interstellar armed force is prohibited from plundering resources and enslaving people on sovereign planets."

"Unified classification as a Class A cosmic terrorism crime!"

Standing to the side, Su Xiaoxiao immediately understood. Without the slightest hesitation, the girl's fair hands left behind afterimages that were almost invisible to the naked eye on the tactical keyboard.

"Boss, the global Skynet computing power has completely taken over the defense force's command system!"

"The high-dimensional gift left by the World Will in Volume 6 has been 100% integrated with the underlying logic of our Skynet!" Su Xiaoxiao slammed down the red confirmation button and loudly reported, "Earth-planetary defense matrix, activated and ready!"

Lu Jingyan nodded slightly and coldly uttered a single word: "Open."

As this command was issued, a certain high-dimensional force that had been dormant deep within the Earth's core was suddenly awakened.

That wasn't the physical energy of gunpowder burning, but rather the ultimate gift bestowed upon this blue planet by the will of the world after confirming that Earth possessed a sound legal system.

Streams of pale blue data light shot into the sky from air defense base stations on every continent, intertwining and recombining in space. In just a few seconds, a massive hexagonal energy matrix covering the entire outer space of the Earth, like an inverted transparent bowl, completely enveloped the entire planet.

The alien commander stared at the pale blue film that suddenly appeared on the screen, his contempt growing stronger.

"You think you can stop the Sirius fleet with this inferior energy shield?" The tentacle aliens waved their arms angrily, as if deeply insulted. "Since you don't want to surrender with dignity, then turn into cosmic dust along with this planet!"

"Pass on my order: Main ship's antimatter planet-destroying cannons, full power charge!"

The alien commander cruelly issued the order to eliminate them.

In that absolute moment where life and death intersected, Lu Jingyan's rule-level perception instantly spread out. This breathtaking second was stretched infinitely in his vision, and every flow of energy was clearly visible.

At 00:1, the massive, abyss-like cannon muzzle at the bow of the Sirius flagship began frantically gathering dark red antimatter energy. The surrounding vacuum of space, under the pull of this terrifying gravity, visibly warped and collapsed. Space debris and abandoned satellites in near-Earth orbit didn't even have time to react before being forcibly pulled into the energy vortex, instantly crushed into nothingness, leaving not even quarks. The overwhelming, world-destroying pressure felt like the scythe of death hanging over the necks of all humanity.

At 0.3 seconds, a crimson beam of light, over ten kilometers in diameter, carrying a savage aura capable of annihilating all carbon-based life, roared out from the main cannon. This beam traveled at near the speed of light, and the extreme heat it carried caused terrifying ripples in the space along its path. The beam pierced the silent darkness, leaving a blinding and deadly crimson trail in space, as if it intended to pierce the entire Earth like a fragile watermelon.

At 00:05, on the North American continent directly beneath the attack, billions of civilians looked up in despair. To their horror, a second sun appeared in the daytime sky—a blood-red sun radiating death. Intense radiation pierced the clouds, causing the air temperature to skyrocket instantly. The asphalt in the streets began to melt, and the glass curtain walls of skyscrapers shattered with a teeth-grinding sound from the intense heat. Countless people closed their eyes, clinging tightly to their loved ones, awaiting the moment when civilization would end.

At 0.7 seconds, the antimatter main cannon beam, powerful enough to vaporize the moon, slammed into the pale blue defensive matrix that had just risen around Earth. A terrifying burst of light, even more dazzling than a supernova explosion, erupted from the impact point. Cruel fanaticism flickered in the alien commander's compound eyes; he had already envisioned the magnificent scene of Earth shattered into pieces.

At 0.9 seconds, the expected cataclysmic explosion did not occur. The seemingly thin, pale blue hexagonal matrix was like a bottomless ocean of logic. The instant the antimatter energy came into contact with the matrix, the high-dimensional rules of law contained within it immediately began to operate at high speed. In a way that completely overturned the laws of thermodynamics, it forcibly dismantled and reduced the immeasurable destructive energy mathematically. The violent thermal and kinetic energy was instantly stripped away and transformed into harmless low-frequency photons.

In the blink of an eye, the menacing crimson beam of light vanished completely into space. There was no explosion, no shockwave, only a series of dazzling, fragmented light spots, like the aurora borealis, rippled outwards from the Earth's atmosphere, resembling a grand yet harmless fireworks display.

A chilling silence fell over the entire command center of the Sirius fleet.

The alien commander stared intently at the unscathed blue planet, his prized liquid metal armor trembling uncontrollably. He couldn't understand why the ultimate weapon, capable of destroying a planet, vanished without a trace upon contact with that barrier of light, like a drop of water falling into the ocean.

This absolute defense, which transcends the laws of physics, completely shattered his pride and common sense as a superior predator.

Meanwhile, in the air defense command posts on Earth, the generals who had closed their eyes and were waiting for death stared blankly at the zero damage reports displayed on the radar.

Inside the office, Lu Jingyan slowly closed the "Draft of Interstellar Law".

The man stood with one hand in his pocket, his posture upright like a pine tree, an insurmountable monument to law enforcement. Through the holographic communication screen, he coldly observed the group of alien invaders who were caught in deep self-doubt.

The alien main cannon fired, but it was easily blocked by the matrix. Lu Jingyan stared at the aliens on the screen, his eyes icy cold.
