The noise from the sea battle was so loud, like a lighthouse, guiding many people to converge here.

Of course, there were also those who deliberately avoided coming this way.

The number of people from Crime Prison Island kept increasing, mainly those from the Milan Order.

Everyone, along with the Jiyi Army, occupied the island below as a temporary foothold.

"Damn it, Hebron ran away..."

"What should we do now, Admirals?"

There were thousands of navy personnel on the island, including thirty Dragon Level officers, led by two admirals.

Those two admirals were both Quasi-Dragon Kings, but they were just like Kelder.

At the moment, this group was huddled in the center of the island, surrounded by the Jiyi Army, watching the number of strong figures from Crime Prison Island grow and grow, feeling colder and colder inside.

When Hebron was being chased by Gao Xin, he took the opportunity to run, leaving a group of fake navy personnel trapped here, surrounded by enemies.

"Why not activate the sky-based beam weapon and fight them?" suggested one of the officers.

The other officers looked at him like he was a fool. They didn't know how many could be killed by the sky-based weapon, but they knew they wouldn't be able to escape, they'd all die.

Moreover, they had seen Tai Sui's strength with their own eyes, and this was no longer someone any three-dimensional strategic weapon could take down.

"Tai Sui even reflected the Destructive Death Light, even deflecting the Apostle's laser... Do you think the sky-based weapon will work?" the older admiral said in a deep voice.

The younger one added, "Didn't you hear Hebron? A thief is always a thief."

"Back then, I didn't want to go to Crime Prison Island, risking my life for the navy for years with considerable merit, yet in the end, I'm still treated as a criminal."

"The Marshal and others are clearly not going to oppose the government... Now I realize, we've seemingly been abandoned."

He opened the conversation, and everyone immediately echoed.

"Yes, the officials certainly won't acknowledge us, they've already listed us as part of Crime Prison Island."

"The navy is unwilling to stand out, yet they want to use us to fight. While fighting, Hebron even ran away, treating our lives as worthless."

"Since they are unjust, we don't need to be loyal."

"Simply, let's join Tai Sui."

They became more and more excited, speaking one after another, and finally realized everyone was thinking the same way.

The calls to join Tai Sui grew louder, intentionally letting everyone hear.

Dark Moon raised an eyebrow, returning to his noble demeanor: "Oh, they've joined."

Gao Xin also smiled, he was actually still thinking about how to get these people to join him.

As a result, this group proactively wanted to join, saving him the effort.

"You all probably just heard, I intend to crusade against the Apostle."

"For this matter, the more people, the better!"

"In my plan, even the weak have great use."

"You don't need to mind your former navy status, as long as you believe in me and are willing to help me deal with the Apostle, then you are one of my own. I, Tai Sui, keep my word."

Gao Xin had no reason to refuse, he immediately stepped forward to reassure the group.

Sure enough, as he spoke, the fake navy immediately rallied, "Tai Sui, if the navy wants to be a lackey for the giant enterprise, we'll defect!"

"We respect your strength, it's no shame to follow you."

"After all, even the Six Gods and the Apostle can't kill you, what choice do we have?"

"Hmph, the giant enterprise only relies on the Emperor's Contract, with AI support, right? If Tai Sui you want to crusade against the Apostle, we're all willing to contribute."

Everyone chimed in, expressing their positions.

They knew, this crusade against the Apostle was a test of loyalty, only by daring to participate, would Tai Sui truly recognize them.

And they had nowhere to go, neither the giant enterprise nor the navy wanted them, they could only rebel.

Adam took the opportunity to join in: "Count me in."

Everyone looked at Adam, as he was the outsider among them.

This guy was a lackey of the giant enterprise, quite off the beaten path, yet he too took the initiative to join.

"Oh? You don't plan to have a final battle with me at Evil Dragon Castle?" Gao Xin asked with a smile.

Adam shook his head, "You dare to fight even the Apostle, what are we?"

"I've always hated the Apostle, joining the Holy Son Club is also to hope for a separation between human civilization and AI."

"If there is someone who can lead us to defeat the Apostle head-on, why go around in circles?"

Gao Xin nodded in agreement, "If that's the case, go gather your people, and bring them all here."

Adam nodded, then hesitated, "The people from Eden Garden are fine, I do have that much influence, but... Yak he..."

Gao Xin was surprised, "Yak came too?"

"Yes, the Apostle saved him and brought him into this conference too. However, he's bent on defeating you, refusing to listen to reason." Adam explained.

Gao Xin pondered, Yak had completely embraced divinity, there wasn't much he could do to restore his humanity.

This kind of thing could only be attempted as best as possible.

"It's okay, just bring him along." Gao Xin said.

Adam heard and immediately took his leave.

After everyone left, people from the Holy Spirit Society arrived one after another.

Luo Yan, Xia Heng, Wan Kai, Bull King, Saya, Tiga, Feng Wuji arrived one after another.

Perhaps they did not recognize the initial battle vibrations from Dark Moon.

But the subsequent Blazing White Spear, and the massive slash atop the firmament, were too familiar.

Filled with the scent of Tai Sui, naturally they all rushed here.

If there are still people not here, it's probably because they're not in the same hemisphere...

"Luo Yan, these pseudo-navy forces are yours to take over."

Gao Xin allowed Luo Yan to take control of the pseudo-navy forces, and it went unprecedentedly smoothly.

However, this smoothness also made Gao Xin a bit wary.

It's not that he doubted their sincerity. Their strength was formidable; they had just fought an Angel Envoy, leaving a massive impression.

In this situation, it was a desperate one for them: either die or die heroically.

But how could they possibly risk their lives again? A bunch of pseudo-navy, formerly rebellious, later surrendered, but never recognized by the giant enterprise.

Originally surviving here was fine, conveniently free from official constraints, living freely and comfortably, backed by the navy, and gaining many benefits.

But now the giant enterprise pulled the rug from under them, selling them out to Crime Prison Island, and even the navy didn't treat them as people.

Not wanted by the giant enterprise or the navy, would they really clash desperately with Tai Sui to the end? That would be insane.

Gao Xin knew there was nothing wrong with their choice; he found the navy's decision peculiar.

"Why give up so easily?"

Gao Xin was puzzled. After years of cultivating a group of people, they just abandoned them?

Moreover, in the development of this Second Earth, the navy clearly had intentions, essentially building it into an independent nation, civilization.

But with one move from the giant enterprise, the navy cowered; if they don't want to stand out, don't stand out, but why not even act? Not even throw out a bone to stabilize these people?

"The navy seems to have intentionally tossed this group of people to me like a burden; why?"

Gao Xin felt he still hadn't figured out the real purpose of the navy.

With that in mind, he immediately spread his left hand open, and after some spatial distortion, a damaged head emerged from his palm.

It was none other than Brando.

"Tai Sui... Huh? This is..."

"How did you end up killing your way to our headquarters planet?"

Brando, once out, saw the base's environment and knew it was Second Earth.

Because only the naval base on Second Earth didn't fly the Global Government's banner.

Gao Xin healed his injuries and wasn't worried he'd run: "Brando, the Dragon King Conference has already begun, and this is the battlefield."

He laid out the known situation in detail.

Brando listened and was extremely shocked: "Damn! That giant enterprise is fierce, throwing out an entire planet like that, it's ruthless."

He didn't run, merely looked desolate.

"These people, they fought life and death with us before, but now the giant enterprise forces us to sever ties."

Gao Xin seized the opportunity to probe: "Brando, what exactly does your navy intend to do?"

"You keep this group, certainly with independent tendencies, so it's normal for a giant enterprise to target you, but why doesn't the navy dare to fight the giant enterprise?"

Brando looked at Gao Xin grimly: "We can't win. The production capabilities of the giant enterprise would endlessly produce Main Angels."

"A total of ten billion AI worldwide; once the giant enterprise fully unleashes, it'd be ten billion Main Angels!"

"These AIs possess self-awareness and can command numerous smart devices, creating an endless sea of machinery."

"If the navy wants to confront the giant enterprise, the only way is a coup, swiftly capturing all Supreme Council members."

Gao Xin frowned: "Is that it? Just because you can't win, you don't dare to fight, wholeheartedly serving the giant enterprise and Joshua, helping them annihilate my Crime Prison Island?"

"Then why don't you just be a good dog, why bother with these little moves? From black identities to defying orders in developing Second Earth?"

Brando hesitated a moment and said: "Tai Sui, I want to know how you view Crime Prison Island?"

Gao Xin said: "Crime Prison Island is the last sanctuary of human civilization, the only place not subjected to Global Government control that can develop freely and grow wild."

"It is humanity's final corrective mechanism, where either it self-destructs or gives rise to a brand new civilization that bursts out, defeating the Global Government."

Brando smiled bitterly: "The first part's right, Crime Prison Island will eventually give birth to a powerful civilization force."

"But defeating the Global Government is useless, seizing the Emperor's Contract? Haha, that leads to just another giant enterprise."

"Everything just falls into cycles, merely a new group of people wielding AI production power, ruling humanity."

Gao Xin was stunned: "Into cycles?"

Brando said: "That's right, if Crime Prison Island succeeds, it becomes the new giant enterprise, merely the Supreme Council changed faces."

"Maybe you would say the system is different, that you'll create human happiness, just as Cangyue mentioned."

"Yes, it could be true, but only temporarily, treating the symptoms, not the root cause."

"With the Emperor's Contract, Crime Prison Island exists, the rules above remain, Silver Tower stands, Sky Island stays, Angel Envoys exist, Emperor Ran can create Angel Envoys effortlessly... Everything eventually reverts."

Gao Xin pondered: "Indeed, that's where I think Milan's simulation goes wrong."

"She said the new civilization of Crime Prison Island would replace the old civilization of the giant enterprise, and everything ends."

"But is there ever an end?"

Milan was nearby, having just arrived, saw Gao Xin talking with Brando, her expression changing.

"Won't it end? Isn't Emperor Ran just waiting for Crime Prison Island to nurture a new, mature human civilization to replace the giant enterprise?"

Brando laughed heartily: "How could that be? What do you mean by a mature civilization? What does 'end' even mean?"

"You think if Crime Prison Island wins, Emperor Ran believes humanity has matured into a civilization on par with it, and everyone progresses as brotherly civilizations, all living harmoniously?"

"That's just wishful thinking from you. Joshua said that Emperor Ran won't establish a new covenant."

"The only condition for the old Emperor's Contract to be nullified is Crime Prison Island being destroyed by humanity itself."
