CHAPTER 287: CHAPTER 162: [CRIMSON DRAGON’S ROAR] REPUBLIC IS THE ONLY CHOICE!!! (7.6K TWO-IN-ONE)_4

"...."

Hiss—

The Blue Star players, witnessing this complete speech scenario, were somewhat shocked.

Was this a speech that defined the Soviet Union as the only threatening country in the world? Did the British Commonwealth truly have the courage to do this on its own?

And this was still on European territory!

The President of the United States, sitting below the stage, led the applause for the British Prime Minister delivering the speech.

What this implies is self-evident.

Judging by the situation, had ’World War II’ just ended, and was a conflict about to break out so soon?

This thought flashed through the minds of Blue Star players.

From the visuals, it seemed that the British Commonwealth and the United States of America stood on the side of justice, but the Blue Star players were long aware of the tactics of these politicians.

They continued watching.

The scene switched.

[Soviet Union]

Inside the Kremlin, the leader of the Soviet Union held a pipe, looking at the translated speech manuscript in his hand:

"An iron curtain spanning the European Continent...."

Bam!

The leader suddenly slammed the table, the ashes from his pipe scattering on the tabletop, causing the two subordinates in front of him to shudder, and the translated manuscript of the ’Iron Curtain Speech’ was torn to pieces.

"We sacrificed 27 million people to defeat the Imperial invaders."

"And now we’re being slandered as the new invaders?!"

Anger came quickly but also subsided just as fast.

The leader issued orders, questioning through exposure of documents, the suppressive actions of the British Commonwealth over the years in India, Ireland, and other areas.

Inquiring back, "Who is the real invader?"

The Soviet Union seemed to stand on the side of justice as well.

[United States of America]

White House, Cabinet Meeting Room.

The night sky over Washington was covered in rain, but the White House Cabinet Meeting Room was brightly lit, and at the end of the long table sat the new president, whose identity had puzzled Blue Star players.

The new president drummed his fingers on the table, his gaze sweeping over the senior defense officials in the room, and said in a deep voice:

"Gentlemen."

"Last night, Stalin swallowed another piece of Europe, establishing a new satellite state."

"Our friends in the British Commonwealth are struggling to hold onto Greece."

"Our friends in the British Commonwealth also acknowledge they can no longer support Greece, and once Greece falls.... Turkey will be next."

"And then?"

"Italy? France?"

"The entire Mediterranean will become the Soviet Union’s inner lake."

"What a joke."

"Roosevelt actually naively believed he could share the cake with such people?"

"I think it’s time for us to make a decision."

The cabinet members around the long table exchanged glances and soon all chose to agree.

The new president nodded in satisfaction, then his gaze fell on the speech draft in front of him, his pen repeatedly tracing over the words "Free Peoples’ Resistance Against Totalitarianism."

Viewed this way, the United States of America seemed to stand on the side of justice as well.

This thought flickered through the Blue Star players’ minds.

No matter which side they looked at, it seemed like that side was the righteous one.

But this world was not simply about justice.

The methods of these people had been revealed earlier in the plot, but watching the CG at this moment, one couldn’t help but think they were just.

They were too persuasive.

The Blue Star players marveled inwardly.

And as these three scenes came to an end, a massive world map slowly emerged.

The Soviet Union sprawled across the Eurasian Continent, a virtual gigantic gluttonous bear drooling, reaching out to various parts of the world, starting with the area between it and [Republic].

The power color of [Republic] suddenly lost a piece, isolated into [Mongolian Foreign] wedged between the Soviet Union.

Then the illusory bear’s gaze turned towards Europe.... reaching out a hand.

Poland suddenly turned deep red, becoming a puppet.

Then came Bulgaria... Romania... Hungary... Czechoslovakia... the Soviet Union originally positioned in Western Europe being engulfed by that gluttonous bear.

Bit by bit eroding the East.

Transforming one country after another into ’satellite states’ that obeyed their suzerain unquestioningly.

Upon seeing this.

Blue Star players suddenly understood why the British Commonwealth would retaliate at all costs.

Poland had already become a puppet.

Further east was the Imperial, and further east beyond the Imperial was France, and the British Commonwealth.... If things continued this way, it would be fatal.

On the side of the United States, far in North America, there was, however, an illusory giant beast depicted as a bald eagle.

Its unyielding gaze also greedily eyed the European Continent, as feathers fell, countries on the European Continent gradually tinted with the deep blue of the United States of America.

As the homegrown ancient powers, the British Commonwealth and France could only silently watch as both sides vied for control.

And this was merely the European Continent.

In the Asian Region.

The virtual forms of the gluttonous bear and the steadfast bald eagle divided the territory in the center of [Republic], then exchanged glances and nodded, likewise drawing lines through [Korea, North Korea].

Former [South Vietnam] in Southeast Asia likewise had its territory divided by a line.

The two super beasts almost divided the entire world.

All countries were manipulated by these two beasts, with no capability to resist.

In the images, after the division, conflicts erupted between [Korea, North Korea], and in [South Vietnam], conflicts erupted between the forces supported by both sides.

In Europe, [Greece] saw uprisings and conflicts erupt amidst the tussle of colors between both powers.

Even in [Imperial] Berlin, which had already been divided into four parts, massive conflicts erupted.

The entire world had fallen into the hands of two opposing forces as chess pieces.

Watching this scene, the Blue Star players were profoundly shocked, a nameless fear emerging in their hearts.
