Facing the threat of racial extinction, not everyone can maintain a firm stance and the courage to fight to the death.

As for what Kainam said about the inevitable wheel of fate, it was just a grand excuse he made for his own cowardice and betrayal.

"The ancient civilization invaded our communication network and took the initiative to contact him…" Pu Tong stood beside Li Tianran and said in a deep voice, "Not only him, but many people have received messages from the ancient civilization."

Li Tianran was right. The ancient civilization's technological weapons had not fully recovered, and they were also afraid of the power of the Kunlun Battleship. Therefore, they did not personally appear to directly attack the human defense line, but they were not doing nothing.

On one hand, the ancient civilization drove the Beast Kings to act as their pawns, consuming and containing the human army; on the other hand, they used high-level information technology to steal some data from the Allied Nations, and also secretly contacted some senior officials within the alliance, extending invitations, making solemn promises, and even giving away some precious gifts, in order to get them to sabotage the North Heaven Gate Project.

Many senior officials with weak wills fell and completely became human traitors in this war.

"The ancient civilization promised him... to help him complete the second evolution and become an immortal." Pu Tong said expressionlessly, "In the current survival environment, not everyone can resist this temptation!"

"This is just the beginning. Before the security of the information network is fully covered by the North Heaven Gate, the ancient civilization will continue to contact senior officials of the alliance and constantly tempt them." Li Tianran took a deep breath and said, "They don't even need to show their faces to create internal chaos! We have no way to stop it!"

"So the later the North Heaven Gate is completed, the greater our internal turmoil will be!"

The current situation is that the ancient civilization can use a higher level of information network to continuously contact and lobby any senior official of the alliance without leaving any trace. In this continuous "offensive", many senior officials' psychological defenses may eventually collapse.

Unless the alliance constantly conducts internal investigations of its personnel every day, it is impossible to determine who will have problems!

"We can't waste our time every day examining the brains of our senior officials, and although the process of reading memories is relatively gentle, too many times will still cause irreversible damage to the brain." Li Tianran said softly, "Before the North Heaven Gate is unveiled, we need to use the most iron-blooded means to curb this situation."

Pu Tong's eyes were gloomy as he stared at Kainam in the monitoring room, seemingly making a difficult decision, and then nodded slowly.

…

In the end, after verification by the alliance, there were nearly a thousand officials in the existing human countries who had colluded with the ancient civilization. They had promised to leak secrets to the ancient civilization, help assassinate important figures, and even lead troops to defect during the war…

This fact made every leader of the alliance extremely angry.

At Li Tianran's request, these people were escorted to the alliance headquarters to be publicly tried.

At the alliance headquarters, a Federal soldier looked at the officials from various countries who were being successively escorted into the Great Hall of Judgment, lowered his voice, and asked his companion next to him, "What kind of punishment do you think they will be given?"

"Colluding with the enemy during wartime and causing serious consequences... those who have already leaked secrets will definitely be sentenced to death." The companion said softly, "But I heard that most people have only simply reached some kind of agreement with the enemy, and have not taken any substantive actions. This kind of thing probably won't lead to death! The possibility of being stripped of their positions and being imprisoned is greater!"

"Yes... there are thousands of officials from various countries, ranging from generals to congressmen. If they are all killed, that would be a huge upheaval!"

"In the current situation, if a large number of senior officials are killed, the entire alliance may face a shortage of manpower. Although this public trial sounds like a big event, I guess it will at most kill a few of the more heinous ones who have taken substantive actions! And those who have not taken substantive actions will at most be punished, and may even be reinstated after ideological education!"

The two soldiers' soft conversation was not heard by outsiders.

What they said was true. In such a bad world situation, officials from various countries held multiple positions. Without the replenishment of subsequent personnel, the problem of one person might paralyze several departments.

Today, these thousands of officials from various Allied Nations have been arrested, and the actions of possibly half of the alliance may be forced to be suspended!

Considering this, many people, including the arrested officials, are guessing that today's public trial will ultimately be a lot of thunder and little rain, mainly killing a few typical examples and punishing most people!

"Dear fellow, relax a bit! The alliance wouldn't dare to kill us."

Inside the courtroom, a blond-haired, blue-eyed EU officer looked at his trembling companion with a relaxed expression, despite being handcuffed, and said with a smile, "If we die, the entire Third Fleet will be paralyzed! Our combat experience and qualifications cannot be replaced by randomly picking someone!"

"Without us, the human alliance would suffer a severe blow in the short term due to a lack of manpower!"

"That's our amulet!"

The EU officer was full of confidence, and looking at the thousands of officials, many shared the same thoughts.

They were high-spirited and held their heads high. If one didn't know beforehand that this was a trial, one might even think it was an award ceremony!

Dang!

Dang!

Dang!

In the courtroom, the copper bell representing the opening was rung three times. As the bell rang throughout the hall, the heads of the five permanent member states, the five chief judges of this trial, took the stage one after another.

The hall became quiet.

President Te, Pu Tong, Li Tianran, as well as the Federal Chief and the Prime Minister of Y Nation took their seats.

"Everyone, since the birth of human civilization, we have never suffered such a huge crisis. This is a disaster that could easily lead to national extinction and racial demise!"

Li Tianran was very straightforward, speaking directly without any opening remarks. His eyes swept down, and in addition to the thousands of criminals on trial, there were also high-level officials from various countries in the courtroom, totaling more than ten thousand people!

"If we want to survive this disaster, we can only unite as one and have a glimmer of hope."

"But!" Li Tianran's tone changed abruptly and became sharp. He pointed to the thousands of criminals on trial below and said loudly, "They made moves to leak secrets and defect to the enemy at this time! This is absolutely unforgivable!"

"I hereby pronounce judgment on them in the name of the alliance."

"I sentence all of them… to death!"
