Either break through limitations and crises to become stronger, or be annihilated.
When ignoring the comparison of strength, Human Civilization actually made this choice once at the end of the Earth Star Era.
So this time, their choice is still essentially the same.
However, Shen Shi is very aware that some things have ultimately changed. He should give humanity more time to prepare for this war, even though the decisive place of the war was actually three thousand years ago.
Therefore, after delivering a heavy blow to all the legislators in the meeting and regaining the highest authority of Human Civilization, Shen Shi's approach began to soften.
Indeed, he expelled Kennen from the Standing Members and took his position but did not target another integrationist legislator.
He even dispatched this legislator to negotiate with the Es Civilization, indicating that humanity is not entirely resistant to integration.
