Titatitan Star – it was busy everywhere. Except for a few remnants of the war, the Titans had returned to their lives with high fighting spirits. After this war, the Titans had become stronger and more self-confident. They had assembled their first battleship and had named it the Saruman Snake Battleship. This was a truly meaningful battleship for the Titans, so it had been bestowed this name. At the same time, the Saruman Snake had become the symbol of the Tita Star. It had been silently yet deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Although the Darkness Empire had been aggressive internationally, internally, the Tita Star was not afraid. Mu Sen was working his magic using various political diplomacy methods. He knew very well that the Dark Empire had no means of attacking the Tita Star before ending their war with the Solar System. They were just making an empty show of their power at the very most. On the one hand, they were continuing their negotiations with the Darkness Empire. On the other, they were making adjustments to their routes, bypassing the Fairy Star. Although their costs had risen quite a lot, compared to the asking price of the Darkness Empire, it was still much better. The Darkness Empire’s influence had not stretched that far out yet.

Mu Sen understood human politicians. Many a time, it was all an empty show, leveraging on strength. Mu Sen had also taken the hoodlum attitude of the Titians to look like an idiot. This was to play dumb and buy times, waiting for the situation to become clearer. Mu Sen was already very experienced in dealing with such matters

The Wise Ones were learning very quickly. Coupled with the fact that there was already a pool of people, the basic structure of the fleets had been laid out very quickly. Of course, they did not have high combat power, but they had the basic operating abilities. However, they were still learning the formations, stalling, and other techniques of space wars. They were improving very rapidly. Ares College and the professionals from the Hail Cloud Alliance had provided a lot of assistance.

But there was always an element of worry behind the smiles of the Titans. Wang Zheng had yet to wake up. Although they knew that he should be fine, they could not feel happy, since Wang Zheng was still not awake.

The Saruman Snake legion and the eight major legions had been replenished very rapidly. The goals of Mu Sen, Lan Ling, and the rest were also very clear. It was sufficient to maintain such establishments and numbers. An overflow of the numbers of Tita giants would not bring about combat strength. Instead, it would create a strain to the military supplies. Of course, most of the Tita giants could be involved in the construction of the Tita Star. There were no workers who were more efficient than the Titans.

Other than shouldering the responsibilities of being warriors in the tribes, the other main responsibility of the giants was to rebuild their homes. Of course, being a warrior held a higher honor, but rebuilding their homes was also a very honorable matter. The giants were very proactive and passionate. This had solved the biggest problem of rebuilding the Tita Star. As such, Mu Sen had never been worried about this.

Rara Durai was still the leader of the Saruman Snake Legion. Shan Meng’s injuries were basically healed, but he would still require several months to completely recover. Shan Lan was now leading the Titan Guards. After his return, Mu Zhen did not join the Saruman Snake Legion. He was now the commander-in-chief of the other seven legions. He was the first giant to step out of the Titatitan Star and had gotten used to life in the Milky Way Alliance. This seemingly small step was one that the majority of the giants had not taken. Among the giants of Tita, Rara Durai undoubtedly had the highest popularity. However, second to him was not Shan Meng or Shan Lan. Instead, it was Mu Zhen. He had become the hero of many giants with his battles and performances in the Greatest King and SIG.

A real hero would not hide behind closed doors; he had to demonstrate his style in the international stage. This was not only applicable for the humans, but also for the Tita giants.

With the deepening of the integration policies, the Titans were also changing naturally. Coupled with the existence of Wang Zheng, the Titans’ initial rejections had now become proactive integrations and understanding.

Mu Sen and the rest were in Wang Zheng’s treatment room. They had already gotten used to having meetings there. The doctors said that Wang Zheng was now conscious, and speaking more to him would help hasten his process of regaining consciousness.

However, the current atmosphere was not very pleasant. News of the defeat of the Solar System had just reached them.

“It’s unexpected that the Solar System would be so quickly and so comprehensively defeated. We have to be prepared for war,” said Mu Sen.

“The fleets have been severely damaged. The Heaven-rank warriors: one is dead and the other is injured. The three Heaven-rank warriors from the Maacah Coalition forces only sustained superficial injuries. They have completely lost their right to take the initiative. Saturn’s defences won’t last long,” said Lan Ling. Given their relationship with the Solar System, and what was currently at stake, the Titans were worried too. As soon as the Solar System was defeated, the Darkness Empire would turn their attention to Tita and wage war on them. The Darkness Empire was even more unscrupulous than the Sirius Star. Perhaps some smaller forces could be attacking soon.

“The basic threshold of the Milky Way Alliance is slowly disappearing. We’ll really be in danger when the time comes where everyone wants a piece of the pie,” said Mu Zhen. After returning from the Milky Way Alliance, Mu Zhen was vastly different from the average giants.

Everyone was looking at Ye Zisu. Ye Zisu sighed. “The situation is more serious than we think. The problem with the Solar System is not just externally. Internally, the conservatives are in an uproar as they feel that the reforms by General Meng Ao and the rest are a failure. Disarmament has led to insufficient strength in this war.”

Although the militaries of the Solar System were very well funded, many of the battleships and facilities were old and lacked combat abilities. Yet they still took up a large amount of the military expenses every year. Furthermore, a large amount of the expenses went to their personal pockets. However, this became the excuse of the conservatives.

A few councilmen had come out and held Drachmach responsible for the failure of the war. Instead of standing united against the enemies at such difficult times, internal strife was occurring. Perhaps only the Solar System could be capable of this behavior.

“However, the situation is currently under control. But if another defeat happens, the Solar System will definitely be doomed. Saturn’s defence systems will not last for too long. What should we do?” asked Ye Zisu.

“Boss, it’s time for you to wake up and do something. If this continues, we’ll lose our initial investment,” Yan Xiaosu muttered as he touched the petri dish jar. Solutions? There were plenty. However, they were of little use. Yan Xiaosu looked to be getting by, but he had great intelligence. The current situation required someone who was decisive and powerful. They needed Wang Zheng to step up. How could he still be lying in the can at a time like this?

Just then, Wang Zheng opened his eyes. Yan Xiaosu rubbed his eyes and pressed himself against the can, “Boss, are you… awake?”

“Xiaosu, move your face away. Your saliva is spewing,” said Wang Zheng. Everyone in the room was smiling.

They needed a pillar, and Wang Zheng would definitely have solutions. Wang Zheng returned to the room after a few minutes, after changing.

Wang Zheng seemed different yet again after coming out from the can. Although he looked to be the same person, everyone felt something special, as if there was something more.
