On a bright, sunny day, a Storm Eagle, gleaming with dazzling golden light, pierced the sky and landed in the bustling city of Laterano like a brilliant bolt of lightning.

The Sarkaz stopped to watch as the royal guards in golden armor and the musketeers wielding revolvers stood in two neat rows, closely protecting a group of distinguished figures as they slowly entered the magnificent and solemn Papal Palace.

At this moment, Tarasin strolled leisurely down the bustling streets of Lateran, a delicious ice cream cone in his hand.

His highly modified bionic body is exceptionally sensitive, easily able to distinguish high concentrations of sweet scents from the surrounding air.

“It seems that Sakota has a real fondness for all kinds of desserts,” Tarasin remarked with interest as he savored his ice cream.

Hearing this, Mostima, who had been standing by his side, couldn't help but feel a little surprised: "Is this the first time you've heard that Sarkaz loves sweets? It's already common knowledge throughout Terra!"

Tarasin nodded thoughtfully, but the image of Exusiai, whom he had met in Lungmen and who was obsessed with apple pie, involuntarily came to mind.

He then smiled and replied, "Well, it's not that I knew nothing at all, but I never expected their love for desserts to be so extreme."

After a brief pause, Taracin suddenly turned his gaze to the distance and asked expectantly, "Does your region have a museum dedicated to showcasing the long history of Lateran? To be honest, I'm quite interested in that."

However, Mostima looked somewhat troubled when faced with this question.

She hesitated for a moment, but finally answered truthfully, "Uh... I'm so sorry, Your Excellency Tarasin. Governor Chen specifically instructed me that I absolutely could not take you to the museum..."

After speaking, Mostima smiled apologetically, a hint of embarrassment in his smile, but still maintaining the proper politeness.

Upon hearing this, Taracin was slightly taken aback, then sighed helplessly, "Oh dear, I never imagined that even a gentleman like me, Governor Chen, would be so wary of me..."

Mostima didn't speak, but she remembered Governor Chen's last words: "Take him with you if you don't want Lateran's exhibits to be swapped out on a large scale."

So this elderly man, who was standing so shakily, was actually a very powerful... collector? Mostima thought to himself.

After stopping the thrashing that was about to be picked up, Chen Huijie's discussion with Pope Lateran also came to a conclusion.

The venue for this session of the World Assembly was finally decided to be Longmen City, a city about to host a world-renowned event.

Lateran Pope Ivangelista XI and Lungmen Governor Chen Huijie jointly issued a call to action, summoning representatives from all nations of Terra to attend this grand council.

This shocking news spread like wildfire throughout Terra, prompting various nations to respond and express their willingness to travel to Lungmen to find out what important matters the council intended to discuss and decide.

Surprisingly, the parliament reserved valuable seats specifically for some businesses.

When Christine, who had just rented a brand-new office building from Longmen, heard the news, she was quite surprised: "Longmen actually invited us?"

At the same time, Rhine Life also had the honor of receiving an invitation from Longmen.

Furthermore, the letter thoughtfully included a suggestion—that Rhine Lab could bring its proud research findings on space exploration to the event.

Christen stared at the invitation in his hand, thinking to himself, "It seems this council meeting is going to be full of fun and surprises."

With her keen insight, she roughly guessed the reason behind Lungmen's active participation in hosting the World Parliament.

As time went on, replies from various factions arrived at Lungmen one after another.

Immediately afterwards, one after another, meticulously modified Tek hovercrafts took off from the Dragon Gate and sped off in all directions.

They bear an important mission—to welcome the invited participants and safely transport them to the Dragon Gate.

Inside Dragon Gate City, the imposing knights of the kingdom were already on high alert.

They boarded the Kingdom Knight mechs designed by El and took on the important task of escorting the enemy.

These brave and fearless knights formed a makeshift honor guard to welcome the guests from afar with the etiquette of the kingdom's knights, demonstrating Lungmen's emphasis on this council meeting and its sincere respect for the guests.

Neither the Victorian representatives, who once had steam knights, nor the representatives of Kazimierz, where knightly culture was prevalent, liked this type of unit that combined knights and mechs.

However, since they were under someone else's roof, they had to bow their heads, and the representatives of both countries did not make things difficult for them.

For many of the delegates, this was their first time visiting Lungmen. If Lungmen hadn't been known as the first permanent city on the Terra continent, they wouldn't know much about it.

The building where the Universal Parliament was held was a temporary construction. Ivangelist XI, who had some reservations about it, was dumbfounded when he saw the finished product. The huge, pure white church should never have had a dragon gate.

This magnificent church made the representative wonder if he had come to the wrong place. Is it really appropriate for a church even more magnificent than Laterano to appear in the sci-fi Lungmen?

"Pope, are we back in Lateran?" If it weren't for the fact that many of the church's murals were clearly unrelated to Lateran, the musketeer would have thought this was Lateran.

“No, this is Lungmen, and they built it in just three days.” King Ivangelista XI ate his cactus tart with a nonchalant expression.

"Three days!?" The Sakotas following Ivangelista XI all wore expressions of shock.

The meeting was held as scheduled, with no one absent, and all invited forces sent representatives.

After a few perfunctory thank-you remarks at the beginning of the meeting, Chen Huijie took to the podium.

The curtain fluttering behind her suddenly changed, projecting a facility in the wilderness into the conference hall.

This is the Lungmen Mass Accelerator, and in its orbit lies a starship built by the Tek Replicator.

"For thousands of years, we have called the planet beneath our feet Terra." Chen Huijie's powerful voice rang out in the council hall.

The camera zooms out, gradually focusing on the Hercules, which is high in orbit, while Terra appears to be directly below it in the eyes of the people.

A commotion arose in the conference hall, but Chen Huijie paid no attention to it.

"Some might say this is the result of our ignorance, but I believe it is the result of our arrogance."

"We are content with our findings and have given up on the pursuit of the truth."

"We are captivated by the discoveries found in ancient books and history, and regard ancient knowledge as truth."

"We have made many discoveries in the past that could have changed Terra, but they did not bring us prosperity; instead, they nurtured ambition and greed."

"Perhaps some people think we've come far enough and should stop and rest for a while."

"But the threat has never left us; we are merely built on the remains of ancient human civilizations."

"Only by looking far enough can we see the whole picture of Terra."

"Only by looking to the stars can we put aside our differences and unite to face the calamity of Terra."

"Ancient human civilizations have passed away, and their glory is now just the afterglow of the past."

"Only by going up into the sky and finding the reason that destroyed the ancient human civilization can the Terra civilization continue."

"For the survival of civilization and for the vision of the future, I name this project—Beyond the Speed ​​of Light!"

As Chen Huijie finished speaking, the mass accelerator activated, and blue light formed a path leading to the sky.

Under the watchful eyes of representatives from various nations of Terra, the spaceship bearing the mark of the Pioneers soared into the sky with the aid of a mass accelerator.

It pierced through the dark blue sky and entered space.

The Hercules was parked nearby, and the two docked in space, much like how an ancient human civilization passed the torch to the Terran civilization.
