The flagship "Courage" bridge command center of the flagship Apocalypse Expeditionary Fleet in the moon orbit, Bruce Wayne was looking indifferently at the dark starry sky gate in the distance.

In the command center, in addition to the generals in military uniforms, the teenage superheroes were also waiting for their orders. Now, these half-aged children, who were only sixteen or seventeen years old, have grown into aspiring young people in their early twenties. After five years of careful training by Damian, their faces have faded their childishness and become more stable.

The biggest change is that these teenage superheroes no longer wear colorful tights, but instead wear unified nanocombat uniforms, with their military rank engraved on them.

The Fort Earth Project of course also includes former superheroes, no one is exceptional. They cannot be exempted from military service just because they are more talented and born with extraordinary power.

The lowest rank of these young superheroes has reached the rank of major.

Superheroes like Supergirl, Fantastic Girl, Dick Grayson, and Starfire, who have already performed outstandingly, have even been promoted to the rank of colonel. They can become the general star if they win military achievements in actual combat.

As for Cyborg, she has been promoted to Lieutenant General, thanks to his contributions to the field of science and communication over the past few years. Whether it is the construction of Star Gate or the cyber-benz transformation of human beings, she has completed indispensable work.

This group of young superheroes are now among the young and strong new officers in the Earth Defense Forces. Many of them were trained and promoted by Bruce Wayne. They are very loyal to Bruce Wayne and are the backbone of the Wayne faction.

Where there are people, there are martial arts and where there are rights disputes, there are factions. As the first secretary-general of the coalition government and the current chief of staff of the Earth Defense Forces, Bruce Wayne is also one of the high-ranking officials in the human camp, so it is normal to establish his own faction.

An officer quickly walked into the command center, came to Bruce Wayne, saluted him, and handed him a briefing on the battle situation.

"Rogue Camp has defeated the demon army, and its control range has expanded to a radius of 100 kilometers at the center of the portal. This is the first day of the Earth-Cracking Operation. Please check it out."

Bruce took the battle report, glanced and nodded, "The casualties of more than 67,000 people on the first day of the operation, well... the damage to the war is relatively low, and the old men and the young men did a good job."

A young officer next to him frowned when he heard this. The officer was Colonel Dick Grayson, the adjutant of General Staff of Bruce Wayne. Over the past few years, Dick Grayson has been following Damian as an adjutant for him, just as diligent and conscientious as he was Robin for Batman.

Of course, Damian has always been showing off his appearance as Bruce Wayne. In the eyes of those who don’t know the truth, Dick is still making Batman Robin.

"More than 60,000 casualties were killed on the first day, and the damage to the war was too high, right?"

Dick said worriedly: "War is indeed a monster that devours human life. Operation Earth Split is an endless battle. According to the action plan, it will last for at least several years. In this way, we will lose more than ten million soldiers in hell every year!"

"There won't be that many!" Bruce shook his head and said, "On the first day we landed in hell. Our soldiers have not adapted to the battlefield yet. It is natural that the casualties rate is higher. When the soldiers are trained, the daily casualties will be expected to drop to about 20,000."

"Twenty thousand is not bad!" Dick Grayson still found it difficult to accept it and said distressedly: "Twenty thousand casualties every day... This is simply unimaginable in peaceful times..."

Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and used the technique of sending voices into secrets to say to the fake Bruce: "No wonder the real Bruce said that you are too cold and do not take human life seriously. The deaths of tens of thousands or even tens of millions of people cannot cause any ripples in your heart, and you do not regard people as a living life at all."

The fake Bruce shook his head slightly with a smile, and used the secret technique of sending the message, and replied: "So, his vision is just that. The overall situation is too bad. It is difficult to be a good mayor of Gotham, so he can beat some unlucky gangsters in small fuss. Do you think I didn't consider the issue of war consumption? Do you think I made a plan to send tens of thousands of people to die because of cruel nature? I will teach you what the overall situation is! In fact, I think that 60,000 casualties are too few every day!"

Dick Grayson was shocked when he heard this and looked at the fake Bruce with a devilish look. Although he had known that this boy was cruel and ruthless, he did not expect that he could be so cruel that he could even think that there were not enough casualties in the Earth Defense Army and even said that sacrificing so many lives was a big view! This is simply a typical villain boss remark!

"Do you know what the normal mortality rate of Earthlings in peacetime?"

Fake Bruce then asked: "In peacetime, the total death toll in the world is more than 58 million people per year. If it is calculated that 160,000 people per day, if not this number, the growth rate of the earth's population will be too high and the ecological pressure will exceed the load of the earth. After the implementation of the Fort Earth Plan, the elderly, disabled and sick have undergone cyber transformation, and the natural mortality rate of the population has been greatly reduced. The natural cycle of birth, old age, sickness and death have been broken. If the population is not consumed in war, the balance between life and death in the universe will be disordered. In short, in recent years, the underworld and the entrance to heaven have been deserted. If some people are not sent to heaven, it will cause an imbalance crisis due to the destruction of the world's life and death rules! At that time, what kind of disaster will break out to force the population!"

Dick Grayson was also stunned. Unexpectedly, Damian sent troops to hell to die, and there were also considerations in family planning and environmental protection. Of course, this "family planning" and "environmental protection" are based on the perspective of balancing the world's life and death rules, and are not the same as "family planning" and "environmental protection" in the traditional sense.

The DC universe often experiences a "cosmic ecological crisis" with imbalanced rules in a certain world, just like the anti-life equation once it is tampered with as a life equation, it will trigger a zombie crisis, which will destroy the earth faster. It seems that it is a good thing that the mortality rate of earthlings is too low, but the supreme existences who pay attention to the balance of all things do not like it. They must create some disasters to balance the data.

To put it nicely, this is called that mortals must respect the law of life and death. To put it bluntly, high-dimensional existences can't stand the people on earth living a good life. When they see that people on earth live a comfortable life, they will feel uncomfortable all over.

"But...but, after the implementation of Fort Earth technology, hasn't the birth rate dropped significantly?" Dick racked his brains, as if he had grasped Damian's logic loophole and refuted: "Will the balance of life and death not be broken in this way?"

"Yes, after the implementation of the plan, people around the world entered the recruit camp. It is difficult for adult men and women to have private space for training separately, and the number of newborns has dropped to an all-time low."

Bruce nodded and said, "This will maintain a balance in accordance with the mortality rate. The earth's population will not increase or decrease, and will not affect the law of life and death. However, this situation also has huge hidden dangers, that is, the population has an age gap. After all, human beings cannot live forever. Even if the old people prolong their life, they will eventually age and die. If there is no newborn, the global population age group will drag down the gap as the population age group will be! There is no need to repeat the harm of the population age gap. Therefore, from now on, the coalition government will lift the ban and form adult men and women soldiers, and encourage them to applaud love and create human beings as a reasonable way of entertainment and fitness during the long and boring starship duty. While the war consumes the population, the implementation of policies will trigger a wave of war baby boom!"
