That's Not the Moon!

"During these two years, Oren would come here to meet with me periodically, and Chris has continued to provide us with technical support remotely," Betty said softly, her voice carrying a hint of recognition and affirmation.

Rakien nodded, his eyes filled with determination: "What is the current situation with Erfland?"

Betty's expression lit up with joy, and she spoke with a hint of excitement: "Erfland's luck has run out. The internal strife within the government is incessant, with various factions vying for power and profit, while their service to the people remains only on paper and in campaign slogans. Civil infrastructure is dilapidated and old, yet the elites continue to live in extreme luxury. The people are extremely angry and dissatisfied, and this has spread nationwide, often leading to large-scale demonstrations and protests. Internationally, many countries are also dissatisfied with their oppression and control, and are rising in rebellion. Erfland now only appears strong on the surface, but in reality, it is a precariously fragile shell."

"The people's anger will eventually topple and overthrow them," Old Karn said calmly, his eyes filled with a firm resolve.

"But what about the negative extraterrestrial forces? What have they been up to?"

Rakien fell silent for a moment, his gaze slightly evasive, as if contemplating how to speak. He ultimately decided to reveal it: "Actually, on the way to Zevia's interstellar motherport, I secretly asked Marlene about the current situation of our Okla planet... She told me some astonishing news."

All eyes turned to Rakien, filled with anticipation and unease.

"Marlene told me that the positive higher extraterrestrial civilizations have completely eliminated the negative extraterrestrial forces, both physically and in the astral plane. They have also removed the 'soul-catching net' surrounding Okla."

"Soul-catching net?" Betty was taken aback, puzzled. "What is that?"

Rakien sighed and explained: "The soul-catching net is a high-voltage electric grid set up by negative aliens, hanging above our planet, surrounding the entire Okla planet, with a voltage reaching several billion volts."

"When humans die, the spirit leaves the body and, under normal circumstances, should enter the astral plane, waiting for the next reincarnation or to be reborn on another planet. However, this net tricks and captures spirits, and under the super-strong voltage, it forcibly clears the spirits, erases their memories, and confines them to Okla, unable to escape or go to other planets."

"Doesn't that make our planet a prison?!" Old Karn clenched his fists, anger surfacing on his face.

"Yes," Rakien nodded, "That's why we can't remember our past lives—our soul's memories are forcibly erased each time we reincarnate."

Betty's eyes widened in disbelief: "I've never heard of these things!"

Little Karn also nodded in agreement, "Nor have I."

"Marlene asked me to keep it a secret, saying that I could only tell you these things after returning to Okla, to prevent Old Karn and Little Karn from being distracted while studying and performing tasks in outer space," Rakien continued, "But now the positive extraterrestrial civilizations have completely destroyed the soul-catching net, and our spirits are finally free. We will no longer be trapped on this planet."

The room fell silent once more, the shocking truth leaving everyone speechless. Betty's expression was filled with anger and sorrow: "Those vicious negative aliens... they are utterly wicked!"

The heavy atmosphere had not yet fully dissipated when Rakien broke the silence again:

"There's something even more shocking—actually, the moon above our heads, it's not the moon at all!! It's not Okla's satellite!!! In fact, it's not even a planet!!!"

Everyone jerked their heads up, their faces full of doubt: "Not a planet?! Then what is it?"

"It's actually a massive spaceship, hollow on the inside. It has twelve nuclear fusion engines, and this ship was originally a product of an ancient civilization, an interstellar spacecraft! The negative extraterrestrial forces arrived at Okla planet in this ship ten thousand years ago," Rakien's voice carried a hint of unease.

Betty's eyes were filled with confusion: "That war..."

Rakien sighed, "In the ancient war, although the positive extraterrestrial forces were defeated, the negative aliens were also severely damaged. They used this giant ship to control our planet, employing technology similar to holography, and turned Okla into a massive prison with the soul-catching net, firmly trapping humans on this planet."

"What about now?" Little Karn asked eagerly.

"The twelve nuclear fusion engines of the ship have broken down for most of the past few thousand years, and the last two are now also paralyzed. This giant ship is actually the equipment the negative extraterrestrial forces used for holographic projection on us."

"Now is the most critical moment for the planet Okra - our planet is about to experience true liberation!"

"All souls, all oppression will come to an end with the elimination of the negative extraterrestrial forces and the loss of control over this ship," Rakien's voice held a glimmer of hope.

Betty and Old Karn were both too shocked to speak, their minds filled with immense shock.

"Think about it, the existence of the moon is very unreasonable! Its diameter is one-third that of Okla! Which planet would have such a large satellite?!"

"It's just not reasonable!"

"That's right, the planet's gravity couldn't possibly capture such a large satellite!"

"Come to think of it, it does make sense!"

"Exactly!"

"There are many strange things, such as the moon always showing only one side to Okla, and some astronomy enthusiasts often accidentally photograph large light points and ships around the moon, even rapidly flying out of the moon's craters!"

"These events are true, I remember! But the government always speaks vaguely, saying things like synthetic fake videos to evade the public."

"I remember! Once, someone even used a high-definition astronomical camera to observe the sun and accidentally photographed a huge ship near the sun!"

"Based on the known ratio of the sun's diameter, that ship was three times larger than Okla's diameter! That's 38,000 kilometers, how enormous!"

"And it was a real, captured reality."

"I saw it too! That giant ship seemed to be absorbing the sun's energy, very close to the sun, and then a few seconds later, after being fully charged, it instantly catapulted away from the sun!"

"The energy during the ejection drove away the flames of the sun!"
