Old Ancestor: Thrown Out By The Nanny From The Start

Chapter 233: Stalemate

Before, one Neigerian dollar was worth eight Moonian dollars. Any currency could devalue, even the Moonian currency now. When Moon declined one day, their currency would become worthless as well.

However, things would be different if the Neigerians had gold. Even aliens were interested in gold.

“Everybody, what do you think?” The Moonian president saw the messages from all those people and asked the presidents of other countries.

The Pantherese president leaned back into his chair and said firmly, “No, we’re not going to do anything! Let them hand out the gold, and they’re on their own! Plus, we can’t help them even if we want to!”

The Winish president said, “Gold doesn’t really matter. After everything Earth has gone through, we don’t know if the gold will still be there. It may have been flushed into the ocean. They’re beyond our reach now. I agree with Panthera’s suggestion. They’re on their own!”

The Moonian president said, “I agree with the Pantherese president, but that’s just my personal opinion. If we look at the bigger picture, we have to save them. They’re all elite members of their own fields. Let’s not forget that we’re going to K18 in six months. There’s a lot to do on that new planet, and those people can help us greatly.

The Soilian president spoke up, “We have elite members here too! WIth Mr. Soan around, we can do anything! Moreover, we also have Viclan, William, and others. We’ll survive with those people.”

The Woodian president had a different opinion. “I disagree. I think we must bring them back. After all, we only have dozens of scientists like William, and there’s only one Mr. Soan. We need more elite people like Dr. Leo. There are at least one or two thousand great scientists like Dr. Leo in Eternity. There are also three to four thousand scientists that are almost as talented as Dr. Leo, totaling five to six thousand. They can help Earth a lot!”

The Padaskian president nodded. “That’s right. I also think we should help them. Those scientists aren’t the only ones we need. There are nearly ten thousand top doctors and scholars in that ark! I’ll take one person as an example, and I’m sure no one can tell me otherwise. Hollis, the rabies expert, is in that ark. Rabies is still incurable, but Hollis has made great progress in that field. If we give up on Eternity, how many years do we have to wait until the next Hollis comes along?”

The Goldian president said, “That’s right! There’s also Philip, Kabal, and many others. Are we going to give up on all of them? They’re geniuses!”

The Pantherese president pounded on the table. “I’m not giving up on them! They’ve given up on me!”

The Soleilian said, “I’d like to remind you of something. They didn’t abandon us! Oraman forced them to!”

“I don’t care! They abandoned Earth the moment they boarded Eternity. They didn’t believe in Mr. Soan or Moon. Yes, they can treat diseases, but so can Mr. Soan! Mr. Soan has come up with a cure for fishmen. I think that’s proof enough! Why do we need those people?”

“But there’s only one Mr. Soan! We can’t ask him to do everything. Consider the space cannon. Mr. Soan gave the blueprint to Viclan, but Viclan wouldn’t have been able to do anything if he didn’t know anything about it. Therefore, saving those people is saving ourselves. It’ll save Mr. Soan a lot of effort!”

The Winish president said, “How are we going to do that, then? We don’t have the means! Can’t you see that?”

The participants were divided. The meeting turned into a stalemate.

The Pantherese president pointed at the screen in frustration.

“Do you see what those people are saying? No one wants to save them! There are millions of comments, and not a single one agrees to go help those people!”

Henry smiled at the Pantherese president. “Don’t get angry. Let’s talk. There’s nothing to be annoyed about. Aren’t we having a friendly discussion here?”

Gordon smiled. “That’s right. We still need to discuss it! Ordinary people can’t see the big picture, but we’re not like them. Actually, many of them want to help those people. Look here… What? Oraman is going to bomb Earth with the energy cannon? Screw him!”

The other presidents looked at the screen and saw a message from Mars.

“Oraman found a stone on Mars, and it contains a lot of mysterious energy. It can charge the energy cannon over 3,000 times. He’s going to bomb Earth and become the ruler of the planet!”

Everybody who saw that message became furious.

“Who the hell does Oraman think he is? How dare he?”

“We must ask Moon to use the space cannon! Destroy Mars first!”

“That’s right! The energy cannon is nothing in front of the space cannon! Can we still use the space cannon?”

“@Sky Eye: please launch the space cannon and destroy Mars!”

...

The people on Mars panicked when they saw these comments.

“Please don’t! Oraman is still refining the stone! He hasn’t refilled the cannon yet!”

“Don’t use the space cannon, or we’re all going to die! Help us first. Then you can bomb Mars! Please!”

“Is the space cannon still working? It destroyed the super meteorite! Of course, it’ll destroy Mars! Please don’t do that!”

“Oraman isn’t going to attack Earth! He’s only joking! Please don’t use the space cannon!”

...

The Pantherese president was so angry that he started laughing.

“Did you see that? Oraman wants to attack Earth! We should stop hesitating! Everybody is asking Moon to launch the space cannon and destroy Mars altogether! We’re going to K18, anyway. Why should we care about the solar system?”

“That’s right! Let’s destroy it! I agree with Panthera!”

“I object! Oraman wants to attack Earth, not the passengers in Eternity! They’ve warned us, and it means they’re still on our side! If we must destroy Mars, we should save them first!”
