Three-body: The Most Competent Wallfacer in History

```

The Trisolarans had long since harbored a deep-seated hatred of the Earth Organization, a hatred that even surpassed that of humanity.

After all, being in a state of war with humanity, mutual hostilities were normal, but the betrayal by the New Earth Organization was entirely for self-interest.

They were nothing like the original Earth Organization with its noble objectives; they were all cowards, fleeing and evading.

Therefore, just as Jiang Yu had predicted, the Trisolarans no longer considered the Solar System State to be their greatest enemy but were single-minded in their desire to punish the New Earth Organization.

It was under their meticulous planning that this surprise attack was launched.

Jiang Yu received this information in the middle of the night, and he sat up excitedly, only to feel dizzy and short of breath, his heart thumping wildly.

Over the years, Jiang Yu found that his aging seemed to be accelerating. In just twenty years, he had already become very old in appearance.

Yang Dong also woke up from her sleep alarmed, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Yu struggled to get up: "Nothing, the time to haul in the net after decades of baiting has finally arrived!"

His hands trembled uncontrollably as he stepped out of the bedroom. Fortunately, the light in the bedroom was dim, and Yang Dong couldn't see Jiang Yu's condition; otherwise, she would have worried again.

Xiao Qi was already waiting outside; he was now Jiang Yu's secretary.

Xiao Qi saw that Jiang Yu's face was pale, but he did not ask anything and instead helped Jiang Yu rest on the couch for a while before starting to help him get dressed.

Once aboard the airship, Jiang Yu finally felt better. He joked, "I remember the first time we rode in an airship together.

"Now, I am truly too old to walk."

Xiao Qi said, "Actually, the Science Academy could clone a new body for you..."

But Jiang Yu waved his hand: "I made the same choice as Teacher Luo Ji. Death is a part of life, without it, life is incomplete.

"In millions of years, humanity may be able to achieve immortality, but the prerequisite for spreading that technology would surely be reaching a certain level of thought.

"In the era I was born in, death was still common, so without death, I would feel that life is incomplete.

"But when death becomes uncommon, in the eyes of people from that era, death might no longer be considered a part of life."

Xiao Qi nodded, solemnly noting down these words.

Then he added, "There's also good news. Two hours ago, Jiang Shiliu just reported that breakthroughs were made in humanity's research into the Fifth Dimension.

"Ever since it was proven that macro-scale physical structures cannot enter the microscopic Fifth Dimension, Jiang Shiliu's research group has been working on strengthening the human consciousness.

"The experiment that just concluded this morning finally achieved a form of consciousness that could exist for a long time without needing to obtain energy from the Fifth Dimension structure.

"The moment for humanity to enter the Fifth Dimension is about to arrive."

Jiang Yu nodded: "That belongs to the era of Qin Ming. After the Trisolaran issue is resolved, I plan to retire."

He took a deep breath: "I heard Yun Tianming has been living comfortably these years. I should learn from him and enjoy life a bit."

Then he let out a long sigh: "Zhang Beihai has been in hibernation all this time, hoping to see the future of humanity; he plans to wake in the eighteenth century of the Milky Way.

"By then, I will have been dead for several hundred years, and it's a pity I won't be able to have another drink with him."

In the midst of Jiang Yu's reflections, he and Xiao Qi arrived at the Wallfacer Office Building.

```

Qin Ming, Belinsky, and others had already arrived, and Belinsky had given the order for all of the New Earth Organization's warships to retreat.

The Trisolarans and the New Earth Organization were engaged in an inextricable battle, and to everyone's expectation, the New Earth Organization had hidden many weapons without turning them in, and had also manufactured many new weapons over the years.

For a time, both sides exchanged blows.

It was only after the First and Second Legions of the Solar System State intervened that the Trisolarans realized they had fallen into another ambush.

Otherwise, both legions were theoretically stationed tens of light-years away and could not have possibly arrived in a matter of hours, even at six times the speed of light.

The New Earth Organization had not yet rejoiced when they discovered something was amiss, "Why are humanity's warships carrying out indiscriminate attacks?"

Soon, they figured it out: humanity had no intention of sparing the New Earth Organization either.

In recent decades, Jiang Yu's attitude toward the New Earth Organization had been amiable, leading them to believe that humanity had entered another pleasure era like the Intimidation Era, or the latter part of the Crisis Era.

At such times, humanity's compassion would inflate unprecedentedly, perhaps dreaming again of a grand cosmic unity.

What the New Earth Organization did not know was that, in the human world, there had been several large-scale protests calling for the Governing Council to immediately eliminate the Trisolarans living so close to the perimeter of human civilization.

The Governing Council had almost succumbed to the pressure several times until Wallfacer Qin Ming declared that after the retirement of Wallfacer Jiang Yu, he would implement an iron-fisted policy against the Trisolarans, which quelled the protesters.

Qin Ming's statement clearly passed the buck to Jiang Yu, but Jiang Yu didn't mind; to be precise, it was Jiang Yu who had suggested Qin Ming do so.

Now, Jiang Yu's prestige remained high, and even when he made decisions that were clearly foolish, everyone was willing to wait for his retirement to rectify the chaos.

Now, people finally realized that Wallfacer Jiang Yu had never intended to leave the Trisolarans a way out.

Apart from the long-awaited ambush by the First and Second Legions, the Third Legion also attacked the two Planetary Systems that the Trisolarans had just begun to build.

Over the years, the Solar System State had actually kept a very close watch on the New Earth Organization, though it seemed on the surface to be lackadaisical and merely going through the motions.

In fact, the Solar System State's probes had, through the smuggling activities of the Trisolarans, already found the Planetary Systems where the Trisolarans had settled, and the two new Planetary Systems, not yet completed, were once again plunged into war.

Jiang Yu sat in his chair, carefully reviewing the battle situation, and couldn't help but sigh, "After we defeated the Trisolarans on the battlefield, their spirit diminished greatly.

"Strategically, compared to the Crisis Era, they are more like an impulsive teenager.

"Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that they no longer have a technological advantage."

At that moment, Belinsky suddenly said, "Wallfacer, the New Earth Organization is requesting to speak with you."

Jiang Yu laughed, "Now that their schemes are all exposed, what's there to talk about?"

A few minutes later, Xiao Qi again reported, "The New Earth Organization is requesting to speak with you using the Sophon computer left behind by the former Earth Organization."

Jiang Yu sighed, "Connect it, let's consider it a repayment for the intelligence provided by the former Earth Organization."

As soon as the communication was connected, a Trisolaran said, "There is no such thing as genuine help in the universe, or of two interstellar civilizations shaking hands and making peace, right?"

"You're right," Jiang Yu said with a smile. "You Trisolarans also like to occupy the moral high ground now?

"When humanity was still weak, we understood that only when we were strong enough did we have the right to speak of justice!"

He paused and then added, "It was you who presented the cold cosmic rules to humanity. Now, it is merely that you have become the victims."
