As expected, Mo Qiu was someone they had never met before.
Quintina and the others already had some guesses from Shen Yi's words, but now it was confirmed. In the past few days, this person had appeared in the Kingdom of God.
Was he from the Pan-Humanist Guardians, or …
All sorts of thoughts flashed through their minds, but their expressions remained natural. After Mo Qiu spoke, they all stood up to show their respect.
"Greetings, Department Head Mo."
It was what Shen Yi, the Food Department Head, had said before, that led them to address him as such.
"Sit down." Shen Yi gestured for them to sit down. His gaze swept over them, but he smiled and said, "Mo Qiu came from a world I've been to before. I went back a few days ago and brought some people over. It's about time for this branch of the Association to officially set sail."
As mentioned last time, the entire Kingdom of God and the branch of the Association had just been established.
Therefore, there was nothing to hide at this time.
For a period of time in the future, Shen Yi and Quintina's world would have to focus on development.
But Quintina and the others were more concerned about something else.
Another world!
"Pardon me for asking." Quintina looked at Mo Qiu and asked curiously, "Department Head Mo's homeland, is it also …"
"Just call me Mo Qiu." Mo Qiu's voice was gentle, then he nodded. "It indeed experienced a disaster that was enough to wipe out all humanity. Fortunately, with Mr. Shen's help, some of them survived."
Thinking back to that huge disaster, Mo Qiu's expression changed slightly.
It was a sense of vicissitudes.
Quintina and the others could vaguely imagine it.
That would probably be a huge calamity as well.
"Some of them survived … there's still hope to move forward," Quintina comforted him. Quintina comforted him, then calmly said, "If our world can be like this, then we, the rulers, won't have let down the entire civilization."
"That will be the case," Mo Qiu turned to look at Shen Yi with obvious admiration and confidence.
Shen Yi was stunned for a moment.
Then he shook his head.
"Since you've already made your choice, you can't waste any more time. You must mobilize every bit of power you can, including all the civilians. You've protected them too well before. It doesn't matter if they accept their fate, but as long as they try to resist the end of the world, no one will be able to stay out of it."
Quintina and the others were silent, but it was clear that a decision had been made.
They had previously concealed the truth about the end of the world because it was a completely helpless despair.
Instead of suffering in despair for a long time, it was better to die instantly in ignorance.
But now, since there was hope to defy fate, it also meant that everyone had to contribute their strength.
"What does Chairman Shen need us to do? You can tell us directly." Quintina raised her head and looked at Shen Yi. "As stated in the agreement, this apocalypse is not something we can resist with our own strength, so we will completely obey Chairman Shen's command … I don't dare to ask you to do this, but this is the only thing we can do."
The last sentence expressed all of their grievances, as well as the truth.
The three options to increase the number of soldiers were not something that could be done with skill alone.
Each of them could not be done without the Association's help.
Shen Yi nodded solemnly and said, "I'll be direct. Your world is my first mission after becoming the Association's Branch Minister, so my goal is not just to protect humanity."
This was probably Shen Yi's most ambitious world so far.
If it was before, and he was powerless, he would have just sighed and let it go.
But now.
With a large number of points in his hands, and with the help of the higher-ups, Shen Yi felt that he could have more challenges.
Quintina and the others heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that.
This was a kind of peace of mind in the face of danger and relying on a stronger person.
Mo Qiu looked at Shen Yi and felt that after not seeing him for ten years, Shen Yi had also changed a lot, and seemed to be more energetic than before.
"First of all, we need to reorganize the entire society." Shen Yi did not care whether they were at the dining table or not, and went straight to business. Of course, he was still eating his food.
It was a bit natural for him to talk about business at a dinner.
Quintina and the others pricked up their ears and listened carefully.
"The initial stage of productivity liberation is the most critical time. Resources and personnel must be mobilized to the maximum. We only have fifteen years, so you must expand the production of spaceships in the shortest time possible. Spread the personnel to the moon, Mars, and outer space, and establish production bases …"
Shen Yi explained the plan.
In fact, this could have been explained by Clove.
But in order to express his importance, Shen Yi spoke personally.
At this point, he really did seem more like a "president" than a "god".
After he finished speaking.
Ya Erlin looked troubled. "This is a major reform of the entire society, but to achieve this in just one year, I'm afraid … the possibility of it being done is not high."
He was not trying to decline; he was just stating the facts.
If the pace was too fast, there would definitely be problems.
"No, it can be done."
Shen Yi's expression was natural as he glanced at the others. At this moment, his eyes shone with a faint light, as if the fate and emotions of countless people were reflected in his eyes. Time flowed by, and it was incomparably deep, causing people to sink into it, unable to extricate themselves.
"We just need to put our lives on the line."
This sentence was like an oracle, and it caused Quintina and the others to suddenly wake up.
Then they realized in a daze.
Just now, they saw the "future" in his eyes.
That's right, the future of putting their lives on the line.
"Yes!" Ling Tian was the first to speak. He gritted his teeth. He was clearly an old man in his seventies or eighties, but he seemed to have the hot blood of a young man. He clenched his fists and said loudly, "We can definitely do it!"
Put our lives on the line? In the past hundred years, who knew how many people had put their lives on the line to change the fate of mankind.
But they could not change anything.
And now, as long as they put their lives on the line, what right did mankind have to retreat?
Although Quintina and the others did not say anything, their gazes showed their attitude.
"After eating, you can act." Shen Yi picked up a piece of tofu and stared at it. "If you're worried that you're suppressing it too much, I think that food can still have some soothing effect."
Only then did they understand why Shen Yi asked the Food Minister to come.
Looking at the food in front of them, just the smell alone could make them feel "blessed".
Perhaps it really could be of some use.
