Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Nanyuan News Express: A fire broke out in Binhe Park early this morning. There are no casualties yet. After investigation, it was caused by people setting off fireworks…”

“Haicheng Morning News: A fire broke out in Nanshan Park, resulting in three people injured and more than ten cars damaged. After investigation, the fire was caused by fireworks…”

The people of Great Xia woke up and clicked on the trending news, intending to check the status of the Universe Federation s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p that had broken through. To their surprise, eight out of the top ten stories were about fires caused by fireworks in various places.

“When 1 went to sleep everything was fine, but when I woke up, 1 found that my car was burnt down to its sh.e.l.l…”

“Last night, someone in our community was setting off fireworks and accidentally shot them into someone else’s window, causing a fire, which hasn’t been reported yet…”

Netizens were quick to comment, expressing that people should pay attention to fire prevention during celebrations, so as not to cause casualties.

Just when everyone thought it was over, Great Xia soon issued another announcement.

“Last night, within the entire region, 1,533 fires were caused by fireworks, causing more than 300 people to be injured, over 30,000 cars to be damaged, resulting in economic losses exceeding 3 billion…”

“After discussions by an expert panel, it was decided to reinstate the restrictions on setting off fireworks…”

When the news came out, netizens were dumbfounded.

“Isn’t it unnecessary to cancel it? Isn’t this the celebration of the Universe Federation s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p’s breakthrough?”

“Do we even have a choice in cancellation?!”

“Darn it, if 1 had known, 1 would have set off the firecrackers 1 just bought yesterday…”

“Me too. 1 bought them but only managed to let off a few small ones before the ban…”

“If it’s canceled, then so be it. Let’s celebrate in another way…”

“Exactly, why not just give us tax breaks to celebrate…”

Just as people were guessing what alternative methods would be used for celebration, the internet was disconnected.

A large area in Great Xia lost internet connection, and mobile phones lost their signals again.

“Not again, is there another electromagnetic wave disturbance?!”

“Will we have to go through a ‘Walking Dead’ month again?!”

Netizens rushed home, turned on their TVs, and tried to figure out what was going on.

“Due to the star war near Mars, Earth’s electromagnetic waves are disturbed. We estimate at least three days of wireless network signal loss. Please don’t worry…”

“So that’s why. d.a.m.n, the star wars are closer to us than I thought…”

“Three days is okay, at least it’s not a month…”

People breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that they could tolerate three days without internet. The only downside was that they could not use their mobile phones to keep up to date with the situation of the Universal Federation s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.

On this day, many people who were at home due to holiday leave from their companies stayed in front of the TV, constantly switching channels, trying to find news on the star war.

But surprisingly, none of the hundreds of channels mentioned anything related to the star war.

“The emergence of robot workers has, to a certain extent, promoted social development, liberated people’s hands, and benefited mankind…”

“There’s nothing wrong with technology itself. The original intention of developing technology was to make life better for humans…”

“Demonizing robots and magnetic levitation buses is not only ignorant but also anti-intellectual…”

“Magnetic levitation buses are innocent, robot workers are innocent, they have no thoughts, no standpoints, they are just tools. Venting anger on a tool is a sign of impotent rage…”

At first, netizens were furious, feeling that these experts were implying something.

However, after listening carefully to several channels featuring similar sentiments, they felt that there might be some truth in these comments. This led to a gradual s.h.i.+ft in their thinking.

“Indeed, robots are innocent. I’ve been out of work for three months, living off the salary my robot earns. Now that my robot has been smashed, how can 1 continue this way?”

“Darn, 1 just received a message from my insurance company saying that my robot has been smashed and it’s not covered by the insurance…”

“Who the h.e.l.l smashed my robot? Why didn’t they smash their own?!”

“This is insane. I used to commute to work in an hour by magnetic levitation bus. Now 1 have to squeeze onto a six-hour train with everyone else, and even consider renting a new place…”

Upon reflection, people realized that the destruction of tech products was indeed irrational and self-destructive, especially when interest-free loans were still hanging over them and needed to be repaid every month.

“I heard that all the products of Bluemoon Tech Company, including the production line, were funded by us. The money has already been given to the Moon base…”

“So, the products we smashed were our own?!”

“Yes, Bluemoon Tech Company’s products are paid for before delivery. All the products left on Earth were already paid for…”

“Darn it, if 1 had known, I wouldn’t have smashed anything. I even took a robot’s b.u.t.t home. Can the robot be fixed if 1 return the b.u.t.t?”

“The guy above, 1 just got a message that my robot is missing a b.u.t.t. So it was you…”

Most netizens, after losing wireless network access on their phones, could only receive information through TV.

However, a few who were engaged in international trade found out, to their surprise, that the internet outage only affected Daxia. Overseas, people were still having a blast.

“Wait, so the electromagnetic interference from the star war only affected Daxia?!… No signal, please try again later.”

“Today’s events are too strange, what on earth is happening? Has Daxia been taken over by aliens on the moon?… No signal, please try again later.”

Moon Base.

Zhao Yu was monitoring Moro Fleet’s No. 10 shuttlecraft. According to calculations, the enemy would reach the target comet in about 45 minutes.

Suddenly, Uncle Da reported, “Commander, we have received a message from Earth…”

“What does it say?”

“They observed that we lost quite a few s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps while resisting the enemy.

They offered to provide us with resources unconditionally…”

“Resources for us?!”

Zhao Yu was taken aback and a bit surprised, “Just yesterday, Earth was celebrating the Moro Fleet’s s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p breakthrough, and now they want to send us resources?”

“Yes, and quite a large amount. Worth about 1.5 billion Lunar dollars, enough for us to produce thousands of escort s.h.i.+ps…”

Uncle Da added, “Commander, the message was sent by Councilman Chu. He mentioned that this act only represents Great Xia and not the Earth Federation…”

“What does that mean?!”

Scratching his head, Zhao Yu shook it and said, “I don’t have time to worry about that now, whether it’s a scheme or a trick. The important thing now is that shuttlecraft. Let’s focus on the task at hand….”
