nIt was late at night in the Empire Era, and the war paused for a while.
n
n
nBut in the real world, it was daytime.
n
n
n
n
nChristine returned to reality and woke up in a luxurious room.
n
n
n“Damn Jerry, he was so mean to me!
n
n
n“He just created the dynasty before I did and get a reward for it.
n
n
n“What’s so great about it?
n
n
n
n
n“Damn that guy…”
n
n
nChristine muttered angrily.
n
n
nThen, she changed her clothes and prepared to see her grandfather and the others.
n
n
nThis matter was still very important. From the looks of Jerry, he was about to establish his own empire.
n
n
n
n
nAnd after he did that, the world was about to usher in a new round of huge changes.
n
n
nThis was simply too fast. It had only been half a year since the world entered level 1!
n
n
nThe world had only just begun to get used to a world in which powerful warriors suddenly appeared.
n
n
nThey mashed rocks with one punch and walked on walls. Such people were simply everywhere now.
n
n
nIn the last six months, although there were not many powerful warriors, half-step warriors were everywhere.
n
n
nThe warriors with magical powers had individual martial strength that far surpassed the so-called special forces and the like.
n
n
n
n
nThey were almost superhumans.
n
n
nTherefore, in the past six months, there were still some commotions.
n
n
nHowever, some police officers also entered the Empire Era and became warriors, so the disturbances were soon suppressed.
n
n
nHowever, things had just settled down a bit and they were about to reach world level two. This was probably something that no one had expected.
n
n
nWith world level two, their strength would probably increase by a lot. If they weren’t prepared, there would be big trouble.
n
n
nOld men with high statuses sat in the meeting room.
n
n
n“Christine, how come you’re back today?”
n
n
nAn old man asked Christine with a warm smile on his face.
n
n
n
n
nAt this moment, Christine was sitting next him.
n
n
nThis old man was Christine’s grandfather, one of the most powerful figures in the United States.
n
n
n“My Lords, something big has happened.”
n
n
nChristine told the elders about what had happened in the Empire Era, including Jerry’s attitude, the Sky Dynasty’s commercial power, and its terrifying army.
n
n
nAfter hearing this, the old people’s expressions became solemn.
n
n
n“The Sky Dynasty and Jerry are so powerful?”
n
n
n“He’s about to conquer Qinzhou and establish an empire. The world level 2 is finally coming!”
n
n
n“There’s no room for negotiation? Looks like he’s an ambitious person.”
n
n
nEveryone expressed their opinions and thoughts.
n
n
nHowever, at the same time, they were a little helpless. This was because the Empire Era was completely beyond their control.
n
n
nThe real world did not have any methods that could be used to influence the Empire Era.
n
n
nAfter a person became a king of a dynasty in the Empire Era, one had entered an extremely high class in the real world.
n
n
nOther than powerful personal strength, he’d also have resources that belonged to an entire kingdom.
n
n
n
n
nHence, the creators of the ten dynasties were all extremely high-status people in the real world.
n
n
nBut Jerry was really low-key and had only devoted himself to the Empire Era. No one knew his true identity.
n
n
n“Christine, the final decision will depend on your own choice.”
n
n
nThe elder with the highest status said in a deep voice.
n
n
nIf she chose to submit, it meant that everything she had in the future would be controlled by her master.
n
n
nThe master could strip her of everything, including her strength, and then kick her out of the Empire Era.
n
n
nThis was the price of submitting. Whether it was to submit to the natives or to those who had landed on Earth. It was a difficult choice.
n
n
nSubmitting to a native was equivalent to giving up Earth and staying in the Empire Era forever.
n
n
nSubmitting to a lander from Earth was equivalent to handing over everything she had gained including her life in the Empire Era.
n
n
nNow was the time for Christine to make a decision. She could choose to leave Qingzhou and find a powerful dynasty to submit to.
n
n
nHowever, the price was that she would never be able to return. It was equivalent to giving up everything she had in the real world.
n
n
nOf course, there was still a way out.
n
n
nThat was if she met someone else in the future who belonged to the United States and changed sides, then she could return to Earth. It would mean she put her fate into the hands of one of her own people.
n
n
nHowever, all of this was only a if! If she was destroyed before she met her own people, she would really die!
n
n
nOne had to know that if she submitted to the natives, she would become a vegetative in the real world!
n
n
nIn that case, if she died in battle in the Empire Era, she would truly die. She would die completely.
n
n
nTherefore, whether she submitted to a native or submitted to a lander from Earth, it was an extremely difficult choice!
n
n
nChristine gritted her teeth as her thoughts spun non-stop.
n
n
nShe wanted to escape and join a great dynasty outside of Qinzhou.
n
n
nIf she could meet her own people in the future, she would have a chance to change sides.
n
n
nBut first, she had to leave Qinzhou first!
n
n
nThe Sky Dynasty was so powerful and she might not be able to leave!
n
n
nAnd even if she could leave, the requirement to change sides was that her original kingdom must be destroyed!
n
n
nIf she joined the natives, she could not disobey their orders!
n
n
nFor example, if she joined the Great Peace Dynasty now, she could not disobey the orders of the Great Peace Emperor!
n
n
nWhat kind of humiliation was this?
n
n
nChristine was absolutely unwilling to do so!
n
n
nAfter all, compared to the natives, she felt closer to Earthlings.
n
n
nIn the end, Christine made a decision.
n
n
n“I choose to continue staying in the Empire Era and submit to him!”
n
n
nAfter Christine said this, she seemed to have put down a heavy burden.
n
n
nAt the same time, she felt very humiliated.
n
n
nHearing Christine’s decision, everyone sighed. It was expected.
n
n
nAfter all, with her looks, if she were to submit to the natives, her life would be miserable.
n
n
nShe would become the king’s concubine and became his toy!
n
n
nAnd Christine’s personality would definitely not allow this to happen!
n
n
nBut if she submitted to Jerry, she still had some freedom.
n
n
nAt least, she could return to the real world, and the control was not that absolute.
n
n
nIf she did not obey him, the worst outcome was that she would be expelled from the Empire Era.
n
n
nAfter all, if he forced her to do something, she could choose to disobey him.
n
n
nBut if she submitted to the natives of the Empire’s Era, the rules of the world would make her and other landers from Earth unable to disobey the emperor’s orders!
n
n
nIf that happened, she would really be in hell!
