Chapter 424 Complete Suppression by Force
Compared to the three major alliances that have suffered repeated blows in the eyes of the public, Tianren's public opinion has begun to reverse.
Initially, because the Celestials were conducting military interventions around the world, and under the control of the media in various countries, the threat posed by the Celestials was exaggerated, portraying them as terrorists who endangered world security.
The members of Tianren have a clear understanding of what they are doing and never deny that they are the culprits behind the world's turmoil.
However, after the appearance of the angels, the image of the celestial beings among the people changed.
In particular, the two consecutive events of the complete annihilation of the Human Reform Federation's space force and the destruction of the Super Soldier Agency were significant. In the first event, although the Red and Black Gundam destroyed all of the Human Reform Federation's space forces, it did not harm a single person.
However, during the Super Soldier Unit incident, this red and black Gundam showed no mercy, killing every living creature inside and outside the entire Super Soldier Unit.
They are clear about their gratitude and grievances, and hate evil as if it were their enemy.
Despite the Thrones' color scheme being full of evil and murderous intent, they did not indiscriminately kill the innocent but instead punished those sinners who deserved to die. This clear-cut hatred made the Thrones extremely popular among the common people. Fighting against the injustice of the powerful and upholding justice has always been something that people have pursued since ancient times.
In the image of the Eastern knight-errant and the Western knight-errant, people see the most romantic aspect of their own culture.
What people enjoy is sometimes a headache for those in power. Compared to the four Gundams that appeared before, the fifth Gundam brought them the most trouble.
The four Gundams of Ptolemy's squad were previously portrayed as terrorists in the media. In fact, what they did was exactly what terrorists do. In the public opinion arena, all countries are righteous. Regardless of Celestial Being's purpose, this kind of direct use of force to violate the sovereignty of other countries will definitely arouse resistance from civilians. Those soldiers who fight against Celestial Being will also know why they are fighting and will be filled with the belief of protecting their homeland.
On the contrary, the Thrones, while attacking the armies of various countries on the battlefield, can annihilate all enemies without harming their lives by virtue of their absolute power, thus completely suppressing them with force.
If it were simply a matter of non-killing, people would at most consider the Thrones' actions as a pointless display of compassion. However, the Thrones went on a killing spree during the Super Soldier Agency incident.
This shows that the Thrones have rules of conduct; once they cross that red line, true death will come.
Based on current intelligence, think tanks from various countries have concluded that the pilot of the Thrones is a "partner of justice" with high conscience, kindness, and universal values.
Not the kind of hypocrite who talks about justice but takes lives while pretending to be righteous.
Rather, they are the kind of brave people who have compassion for the weak, possess a conscience, and never tolerate evil.
When such people wield powerful military force, the legitimacy of those in power to maintain the country weakens, and the hard-won prestige is completely destroyed. They will destroy the darkness hidden under the regime time and time again, making those in power restless and uneasy.
When a regime loses its justice and legitimacy, it is overthrown and abandoned by the people.
The Thrones' military intervention in this way would cause greater losses to the governments of various countries than Ptolemy's squad did ten times. Ptolemy's squad at most caused economic losses and casualties. This would not only not harm any country, but would also unite the people and incite revanchism.
The actions of the Thrones, however numerous in terms of personnel losses, directly undermine the legitimacy of various countries. Once legitimacy is compromised, Lindenwan will be exposed everywhere.
The other four Gundams can live, but the Throne must die!
This has already threatened the stability of their very position!
Especially the powerful figures of the People's Revolutionary Alliance, were already terrified after the Super Soldier Agency was exposed. What kept them up at night was that, apart from the bodies of the Super Soldier Agency members, there were no children's bodies at the scene, and these children were not at the scene after the Thrones left.
So where did these children go?
According to personnel from the non-super-military agencies on the colony satellite [Global], although the Thrones controlled the colony satellite's systems and their electronic equipment was interfered with and rendered unusable, witnesses saw the Thrones escorting two transport ships as they left.
It is clear that all the children of the super-soldiers were taken away by the Thrones.
If these children hadn't been taken away, the People's Revolutionary Alliance could have taken them in, provided them with all sorts of resources to live a life of luxury, told them that the things the Super Soldier Agency did were done by some people with ulterior motives within the People's Revolutionary Alliance who were completely unaware of them, and then condemned the Super Soldier Agency from the children's perspective to whitewash themselves.
Now that this group of tormented children has fallen into the hands of the Thrones, the leaders of the People's Revolutionary Alliance dare not even imagine what might happen.
Whether these children are trained to be soldiers or assassins, the hatred accumulated from years of torment can unleash astonishing power in them.
Even if the Thrones didn't do this, and were truly the kind of heroes who took good care of these children, as long as these children live, the evidence of the Human Revolutionary Alliance's crimes will not disappear. As long as these children stand up, they can once again cause great damage to the Human Revolutionary Alliance's prestige.
They were restless and unable to eat or sleep! Unfortunately, with their limited power, they were unable to harm the Thrones or locate them, so they could only grit their teeth and keep a low profile for the time being.
The UN needs to address public opinion, and so does the All-China Federation of People's Revolutionary Committees.
In this storm of public opinion, their two alliances have been condemned by countless people, and their long-established prestige has continued to decline. If it were before the appearance of the Celestial Being, they could have quelled public anger by suppressing violence, but now if you dare to do this, the Celestial Being will come to your door in no time to offer help. This will not only fail to achieve its goal, but will also make the situation worse.
Seeing his two biggest rivals getting into a mess by the Celestials, AEU stood aside with a grin. He was already the weakest of the three alliances, and now that the top two were being messed up by the Celestials, he, the third, just wanted to cheer loudly and keep the music playing! Keep dancing!
Both the UN and the People's Revolutionary Alliance are now mired in scandal, and they need to clear their names.
And now, just such a thing happens, which can turn the tide...
In the old days, the Kingdom of Azadistan was like a small boat crushed by the wheels of time, struggling to survive amidst the storms.
This country has long relied on fossil fuels to maintain its fragile economy. However, the depletion of resources and economic stagnation are like two sharp blades, ruthlessly severing the country's future.
In order to escape the growing poverty and hardship in her country, the Queen of the Kingdom of Azadistan resolutely decided to send envoys across mountains and rivers to the powerful AEU to seek their help.
However, the AEU, a giant that prides itself on being a defender of the international order, responded to Azadistan's pleas with indifference and selfishness, failing to offer any assistance. Its behavior is truly unbecoming of a major power and lacks the demeanor and responsibility expected of it.
As a leader of world civilization, helping underdeveloped countries escape poverty and move towards prosperity is not only the responsibility of a major power, but also a touchstone for demonstrating its level of civilization and magnanimity.
In this matter, I, the UN (United Nations of People's Revolution), as the embodiment of justice and progress, will certainly shoulder this heavy responsibility without hesitation! Kingdom of Azadistan, please wait patiently, I will definitely take concrete actions to let you witness firsthand what true great power responsibility is and what the shining light of internationalism is.
"The Kingdom of Azadistan never expected that their queen would go to great lengths to visit various countries in the AEU and humbly ask for help, only to be politely refused by all sorts of high-sounding reasons."
Now, the tables have turned; the UN and the People's Revolutionary Alliance have finally shown their mercy, personally visiting our doorstep and generously offering free aid.
Wang Liumei sat beside the research ninja, Hiruko, gently sipping her teacup and savoring the fragrant tea, her eyes flashing with a hint of commentary on the news broadcast on television.
"This is not because the UN and the People's Revolutionary Alliance suddenly had a change of heart, but because I came." Hiruko smiled calmly, a confident curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"Indeed, now you and the Thrones have become the embodiment of justice and the beacon of hope in the eyes of the common people."
The high-ranking officials of those countries are all afraid of you, fearing that you will suddenly appear in their airspace and cause a huge uproar.
"Even though Ptolemy's squad has intervened far more often with force than you, they fear you more because every time you appear, it signifies change and challenge," Wang Liumei analyzed, her eyes revealing admiration and trust in Beiliuhu.
"Ptolemy's actions, though incredibly brave, could only defeat the surface military force and could not shake the foundation of the great power."
On the contrary, it will make the common people more united and inspire their spirit of resistance.
Throughout history, very few countries have perished due to external threats; the vast majority have fallen because of internal loss of legitimacy and demoralization of the people.
Once a regime loses the support of the people, its destruction is imminent, like a collapsing building, beyond saving.
Although Hiruko only intervened militarily twice, his achievements far surpassed those of Ptolemy's squad.
He shook the foundations of the regime, instilling fear in the rulers and keeping them awake at night.
When people are afraid, they will seek ways to eliminate that fear. However, the individual military strength of these countries is no match for that of the Celestials, and even the three major alliances would find it difficult to resist.
In order to consolidate their rule, the rentier classes around the world will unite, and the prototype of a unified regime will emerge.
At that time, with just a little push, the nations of the world can be initially integrated, ushering in a new era of peace and prosperity.
"By the way, what are your plans for the children rescued from the Super Soldier Agency?" Wang Liumei asked softly as she approached Beiruhu.
Those children are currently being housed in one of the Wang family's large estates, enjoying a rare period of peace and recuperation.
A faint, sweet fragrance wafted into Biruko's nose. He glanced at Wang Liumei out of the corner of his eye and thought to himself: This young girl is so young, yet she has such great ambitions. She is not to be underestimated.
Unfortunately, she's still a bit short of his aesthetic standards. To sway his will, you'd have to be at least at the level of a character in Azur Lane!
"I don't intend for these children to do anything. They have experienced the darkness of the world and suffered torment and hardship at such a young age."
Rather than using them to achieve some purpose, I would rather protect them and give them warmth and care.
"That's what a real adult should do, Miss Wang Liumei."
Hiruko flicked Wang Liumei on the forehead, telling her not to always scheme against others. Sometimes it's better to be simple and honest, and to treat people sincerely in order to gain true friendship and happiness.
"Ouch!" Wang Liumei complained coquettishly, clutching her head.
"You know what pain is now? The torture those children suffered at the Super Soldier Agency was far worse than this."
The Wang family is large and wealthy; raising hundreds of children is nothing to them.
And you yourself are clearly just a kid, yet you always act like you're a master strategist and an old man.
"You're not tired, but I'm tired just looking at you. You should relax a bit." Hiruko teased, his eyes revealing his care and affection for Wang Liumei.
"Okay, okay, whatever you say. I will take good care of these children and make them feel the warmth of home."
"And you really don't know how to be gentle with a woman. I'm a pure and beautiful young girl, and you hit me so hard." Wang Liumei rubbed her forehead, complaining, but with a smile on her face.
Only when she was by Hiruko's side did she feel that the royal family's mission was not so important, and only then could she let down all her guard and pretense.
“If I don’t take such drastic measures, you might forget about it in the blink of an eye. Besides, in addition to financially supporting the Celestials’ operations, you are also in charge of intelligence matters.”
Throughout history, those who work in intelligence rarely meet a good end; they are either purged or become victims of political struggles.
Isn't this the future you envisioned in your original work?
"I don't want you to repeat the same mistake." Hiruko mentioned Wang Liumei's future again, his eyes revealing his protectiveness towards her.
Upon hearing this, Wang Liumei's expression turned ashen, as if she had swallowed a fly.
She watched both seasons of Gundam 00 with Hiruko and felt deep disgust and disdain for her character in the show.
Despite being portrayed as a strategist and cunning mastermind in the first season, he became like a clown in the second season, dying tragically while frantically trying to escape.
She was utterly disgusted by her own appearance in the drama; she realized that others saw her as such an ugly person.
She vowed never to repeat the mistakes made in the drama, and that she would live a life of brilliance and dignity!
Oh, and I'll never get that awful old lady hairstyle from season two again! Especially after seeing the disappointed look on Hiruko's face when she saw that old lady hairstyle, she immediately felt that her current outfit was pretty good.
Although pigtails are a bit childish, some people really like them. But no one likes that old lady hairstyle at all!
"I'm entrusting these children to you to leave you a way out. People who work in intelligence will only become easy prey without their own armed forces."
Chapter 425
"As long as you treat these children well and don't follow the methods of those big families that raise Deadpools, let them grow up safely, these children who have lost their parents will regard you as their only hope and support."
"Be good to them now, and they will repay you many times over when they grow up, becoming your strong support and help," Hiruko explained, his eyes revealing his expectations and plans for the future.
"Yes, I understand. Thank you for doing so much for me, Hiruko." Knowing that Hiruko did this partly for her sake, Wang Liumei felt her heart tremble, her heart pounding as if it were about to leap out of her chest.
"By the way, are you free later? Let's go on a date," Hiruko suddenly suggested, her eyes sparkling with anticipation and excitement.
“I’m busy, I need to gather intelligence… What? A date?!” Wang Liumei was taken aback and stood there, her eyes filled with surprise and confusion.
“That’s right, just the two of us, I’ll take you to a special place to enjoy time that belongs only to us.” Looking at Hiruko’s profile so close to hers, Wang Liumei’s heart felt like it was going to stop beating. It was as if the whole world had quieted down, leaving only the sound of their heartbeats.
"Unbelievable! I actually believed your nonsense. This is what you call a date? The two of you came all the way to Azadistan? Are you out of your mind?" Wang Liumei said, feigning anger, but a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.
"Don't be angry, Miss Wang. You've lived a life of luxury since you were a child. What delicious food and drink haven't you seen?"
"What's the point of taking you to places where ordinary people go? It's better to see things you've never seen before, to experience different lifestyles and cultures. That's much better," Hiruko explained, his eyes revealing his understanding and affection for Wang Liumei.
