The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

"It's down."

Lin Feng smiled and nodded.

Seeing the somewhat surprised expressions on Luo Ji and Hines's faces, Lin Feng shrugged and asked helplessly.

"Surely not? We've met before, after all. According to your sense of time, how could you not recognize me after such a short time?"

“I thought that time would make you more mature,” Hines said.

In the past, when Lin Feng was younger than them, some frivolous remarks wouldn't have been a big deal. But now that Lin Feng is older than them, looking at an 'elder' with frivolous remarks is like watching a muscular man like Schwarzenegger perform the Swan Lake.

Lin Feng waved his hand dismissively, "If I had chosen to be cautious, neither of you would be seeing what we have now."

Lin Feng sat down on the other side of Luo Ji, and soon everyone who was going to attend the meeting had arrived.

It wasn't that no one recognized Lin Feng; after all, he was a Wallfacer who appeared quite frequently in history books. It was just that no one connected it to the explosion of the 187j3x1 star. They simply assumed that the Taylor system had pulled Lin Feng, a core figure in the Taylor system, out of hibernation in preparation for this meeting.

The meeting room was full of people, most of whom were wearing military uniforms. The style of the uniforms had not changed much, and none of the attendees' clothes had the colorful and varied patterns that were common on people's clothes at that time. Only their collar insignia and shoulder insignia shone faintly.

Lin Feng's gaze fell on the rotating chairman of the fleet joint meeting. He was a civil servant. Looking at this person, Lin Feng unconsciously recalled Chairman Galnin when he was still on Earth. He was constantly arguing with representatives of various countries because of him, and he tirelessly banged his small wooden gavel again and again.

After announcing the start of the meeting, the rotating chairperson began to speak.

"Distinguished delegates, at this meeting we will give a final vote on Proposal No. 649, which was submitted by the Alliance and the Fleet at the 85th Joint Meeting this year. I will first read out the contents of the proposal."

The rotating chairman paused for a moment, and a screen of light appeared in front of him. He then spoke.

"In the second year after the Three-Body Crisis, the United Nations Planetary Defense Council formulated the Wallfacer Plan, which was unanimously adopted by all permanent members of the Council and began to be implemented the following year."

"The core of the Wallfacer Project is that four Wallfacers, selected and nominated by the permanent members of the Security Council, will engage in completely closed-off personal thinking to formulate and execute a strategic plan to counter the invasion of the Trisolaran world, so as to avoid the ubiquitous surveillance of the human world by the Sophons and thus achieve strategic concealment."

"The United Nations introduced a corresponding wall-facing bill to guarantee the privilege of wall-facers to develop and implement plans."

"Project Wallfacer has been running for 204 years. During this time, leadership of the project has been transferred from the former Planetary Defense Council to the current Solar System Fleet Joint Conference."

"The Wallfacer Project was born in a specific historical context. At that time, the Trisolaran crisis had just emerged. Human civilization was facing this unprecedented and devastating threat, and the international community was plunged into unprecedented panic and despair. The Wallfacer Project was born in this environment. It was not a rational choice, but a desperate struggle of mankind."

"Historical facts have proven that the Wallfacer Project was a completely failed strategic plan. It was the most naive action ever taken by human civilization as a whole. The Wallfacers were given unprecedented rights, free from any legal supervision, and even the freedom to deceive the international community, which violated the most basic moral and legal principles of human society."

"Wallfacer Frederick Taylor's quantum fleet plan has been proven to have no strategic significance, as has Wallfacer Radiaz's self-destructing sun plan. At the same time, both plans have seriously trampled on the bottom line of humanity. Taylor attempted to attack and destroy a human fleet, while Radiaz was even more insidious, intending to drag the lives of all humanity in the entire solar system into his insane plan."

"The remaining three Wallfacers are equally disappointing. Wallfacer Bill Hines' Mind Enhancement Program has not yet revealed its true strategic intentions, but the initial result of the program, 'Mind Imprint,' is also a crime in its use within the Space Force. It seriously harms human freedom of thought and shakes the foundation of human civilization's existence and progress."

"Secondly, Luo Ji, the Wallfacer, first irresponsibly used public resources to create a life of pleasure for himself, and then used ridiculous mysticism to attract attention."

Lin Feng, who was sitting next to Luo Ji, noticed Luo Ji's gaze and looked away.

Soon, the rotating chairman brought up Lin Feng, and the criticism was only slightly better than that directed at Rediaz.

"Finally, there is the Wallfacer, Feng Taylor, a complete and utterly ambitious man who, from the moment he took office, made no attempt to conceal his abuse and flaunt of his power. Although his inhumane plans did provide some impetus to the development of human civilization, these achievements are insignificant compared to the terrible impact he had on human civilization."

"His extreme greed for power twisted this Wallfacer into a complete dictatorial madman, brazenly seizing the solar system resources of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. For a period of time, he also continuously exported wars, causing space cities to fall into war. Today, the Taylor system he leads has developed into a stumbling block that seriously hinders human civilization from uniting all its forces."

"We believe that with the decisive increase in the power of human civilization and the change of initiative in the war by the Trisolarans, the Wallfacer Program has become meaningless. It is time to resolve these historical issues. We recommend that the Joint Conference announce the termination of the Wallfacer Program and repeal the United Nations Wallfacer Act."

"This proposal is hereby submitted."

After the rotating chairman finished reading, the light screen in front of him disappeared, and he looked around at the crowd in the hall and began to speak.

"We will now begin voting on Proposal 649 of the Solar System Fleet Joint Conference."

Voting was done by pressing a button, similar to raising hands to vote. One of the representatives' choices caught the attention of the rotating chairman who had reviewed the voting results.

That person was Lin Feng, and he voted in favor.

This means that the Taylor system also agreed to the Solar System Fleet Joint Conference to terminate the Wallfacer program.

This is somewhat surreal, much like how the United States voluntarily relinquished its dollar hegemony two centuries ago.

Could it be that Feng Taylor has become senile? The rotating chairman couldn't help but think to himself, as he had expected the meeting to be filled with heated debate.

However, the result is the result, and the rotating chairman announced, "Proposal No. 649 has been passed unanimously and will take effect from this moment on."

The rotating chairman raised his head, his gaze sweeping over Lin Feng before landing on Luo Ji and Hines.

"Now, the Wallfacer Project has been terminated, and the UN Wallfacer Act has been repealed. On behalf of the Solar System Fleet Joint Conference, I hereby inform Wallfacer Bill Hines and Wallfacer Luo Ji that your Wallfacer status has been terminated. All privileges related to the Wallfacer Project granted to all Wallfacers by the UN Wallfacer Act, as well as the corresponding legal immunity, are no longer valid. All Wallfacers will be restored to their ordinary citizen status."

Chapter 215 It's the same even without you

When this was announced, the rotating chairman's gaze shifted to Lin Feng, only to see the other party's indifferent expression, as if none of this concerned him.

Indeed, from a legal standpoint, the termination of the Wallfacer Project has nothing to do with Lin Feng, because he had already been removed from the Wallfacer Project by the authorities.

Only the Taylor faction still recognizes his 'Wallfacer' identity.

With the announcement of the termination of the Wallfacer Project, the Taylor Group also participated and endorsed the proposal of the Solar System Fleet Joint Conference. This signifies the complete end of the Wallfacer Project and the end of Maple Taylor's dictatorial power.

Even Feng Taylor himself agrees!

The chairman announced the end of the meeting, and at that moment, a voice stopped everyone from leaving the meeting.

“Bill Hines, the Wallfacer, I am your Wallbreaker.”

It was a female voice, and everyone in the hall looked in one direction, their eyes focusing on Sugiyama Keiko.

Bill Hines, who was about to leave, heard Keiko Sugiyama's words, his legs went weak, and he slumped into his chair.

In the meeting room, amidst the exchange of glances and whispers, Keiko Sugiyama revealed Bill Hines' Wallfacer Project: spreading defeatism through thought imprints, and then guiding a portion of humanity to escape the solar system.

After Keiko Sugiyama finished explaining Hines's Wallfacer Project, the Alliance representative couldn't help but question Hines.

"Dr. Hines, you have lost your status as a Wallfacer and your legitimate right to deceive the world. Please answer our questions truthfully. Is what your wife, or rather your Wallbreaker, said true?"

"it is true."

Hines nodded heavily.

"This is a crime!" the representative of the fleet alliance shouted angrily.

The rotating chair said, "I think the first step is to find the lingering imprints of thought and seal or destroy them."

"The problem of the stamped clan is not serious. The problem with the thought stamping process was discovered and properly handled a century ago."

The representative of the alliance nodded in agreement, "Yes, this has already been handled properly. People who have an absolute belief in defeat cannot pass the review to enter the combat system. Even if the ideological imprint is lost outside, it is not a big problem for ordinary people to have a belief in inevitable defeat."

In the eyes of the human leadership, Bill Hines' problem was not very serious, because it was a problem that had been solved long ago.

However, at that time, people thought that the plus or minus sign in the mind imprint was just a programming error by Hines rather than intentional.

Now that we know Hines did it intentionally, at most it turned from an accident into a guilty one, without causing any serious consequences.

Sugiyama Keiko suddenly sneered, revealing an expression rarely seen in this era, which reminded the attendees of vipers spitting out apricots in the wild grass of ancient times, sending chills down their spines.

"You're oversimplifying things."

“Feng Taylor saw through Hines’s plan very early on. He was also a deep-seated loser. A simple conversation was enough for them to reach a consensus. He made Hines’s plan more complicated and long-lasting.”

Ah... resonance? Me?

Lin Feng was taken aback; he hadn't expected Sugiyama Keiko to bring up the topic with him.

The attendees and Hines all turned their gazes toward Lin Feng in astonishment. The former were surprised that the plan was carried out by two Wallfacers in collusion, while the latter was bewildered that the plan was so easily seen through by the other party and that it had been perpetuated with the other party's help.

Keiko Sugiyama continued, "Through virtual space exercises, we constantly undermined the confidence of the Space Force at the time, inducing them to be ideologically imprinted. This resulted in more than 60% of the Space Force personnel being ideologically imprinted, most of whom were combat personnel."

"Later, due to the Kuiper Belt campaign leading to Hines's leak, some high-ranking members of the Space Force deliberately misrepresented it as a programming error by Hines, and cooperated with Feng Taylor to promote the harmlessness of the Stamped Race, causing the then-human leadership to abandon the idea of ​​thoroughly investigating the Stamped Race."

"Although those stamping machines were subsequently sealed and destroyed, the Taylor Group secretly manufactured new stamping machines and handed them over to the Stamp Clan in the Space Force at the time."

Ah... Although all of this is true, Lin Feng did not do it intentionally. The virtual space exercise was the main purpose. Encouraging the Space Force to imprint their thoughts was at most providing some help to Hines's plan.

This matter is very complicated, and Lin Feng cannot explain it clearly in just a few words. Even if he could explain it clearly, probably no one would believe him.

"Gentlemen, look what you've done!" The rotating chairman glared at Lin Feng and Hines.

Hines raised his head, his pale face returned to normal, and his voice was heavy and calm.

"I admit that I underestimated the power of humanity. The progress that human civilization has made in the last two centuries is incredible, and I believe that humanity will be the victor in this war. The defeatism of two centuries ago was a complete joke."

"But Mr. Chairman, gentlemen of the delegates, I will not and cannot repent on this matter."

The alliance representative angrily questioned, "Shouldn't you repent?"

Hines shook his head slightly and said, "It's not that I shouldn't have done it, but that I couldn't. I've mentally imprinted myself on the idea that everything I did in the Wallfacer Project was correct."

Having witnessed humanity's antimatter warships capable of reaching 70% of the speed of light, and the giant magnetic railguns that could threaten the Trisolaran homeworld, Hines believed that humanity could win. This belief was even on par with the conviction that had been imprinted on his mind.

This kind of pain is like knowing that the water is not poisonous, but still firmly believing that the water is poisonous.

Lin Feng, standing nearby, couldn't bear to watch. As a hero of humanity, he was being tortured so miserably.

“Hearth, a man should be stronger. How can you put your mind on something so trivial? You’re not even as good as that guy who tried to convince himself that his wife hadn’t cheated on him with a mental imprint.”

“I’m different. Even without the mental imprint, I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong. To this day, I still think I’ve done the right thing.”

"Chairman, fellow delegates, it's not that I'm wrong, but that you are wrong, terribly wrong."

Lin Feng surveyed the assembled attendees, his arrogance evident on his face.

Hearing that Lin Feng had not been given a "thought imprint" and yet dared to so shamelessly accuse all of them, the rotating chairman and representatives from all sides were furious.

The rotating chairman questioned, "You should be ashamed of what you have done, Mr. Feng Taylor. When the weak Trisolaran fleet surrenders to the powerful human civilization in the near future, will you still be able to insist that what you have done is right?"

Lin Feng leaned back in his chair and said leisurely, "Humanity has developed for two centuries, and I have witnessed it for two centuries. It has awakened from hibernation several times and given human civilization a good kick in the back so that it can fly further. From the initial development of the solar system, to advocating colonization of other star systems, and then to today's antimatter and giant magnetic railguns."

“I, Feng Taylor, drive history, experience history, and witness history. It is because of my judgment that you are where you are today. What right do you, the bystanders of history, have to question my judgment?” Lin Feng said.

The alliance stared at Lin Feng's arrogant expression and said solemnly.

"History is created by humanity as a whole, not by you, the dictator. Even without you, humanity would have developed the resources of the solar system, created antimatter, possessed antimatter warships, and someone would have built a giant magnetic railgun. All of this would have happened eventually, perhaps a little later, but it was an inevitable outcome."

"If the collective is so powerful, what is the point of humanity having a decision-making body?" Lin Feng retorted with a cold laugh.

Chapter 216 Thank you for your contributions to humanity

As tensions rose, the joint fleet representative interrupted what he considered a pointless argument.

"Let's stop here; there's no point in arguing about this now."

The fleet representative turned to Lin Feng, "Mr. Feng Taylor, please answer us truthfully: how many of the human fleets in the solar system are currently controlled by the Steel Seal race?"

Lin Feng shrugged. "Asking me won't help. The Taylor Group only provided the Stamped Clan with stamping machines back then. You know, frequent contact is easy to be detected. I don't want to cause another Wallfacer's plan to fail because of my own connections."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the rotating chairperson and representatives from all parties darkened further.
