ET Enslavement Timeline

This is the future version of an identical timeline from Alt History Fandom, however has been adjusted to fit proper rules of futurology.
The synergy of this timeline combines the likes of War of the Worlds and the Matrix, however this timeline is not a derivative of either, but is simply influenced by the lore of both fanfictions. AI is not the main villian, but rather "Malignant ETs", both sides use AI.
=== World War III ===
In this timeline - the Ukraine War erupts into people's worst fears, when the Russian nukes begin to fly from Moscow thanks to desperation from Moscow following several disastrous Russian defeats in eastern Ukraine, followed by a Chinese invasion of Taiwan. Moscow however, accused the United States of staging a false flag. Russia obviously retaliates with more nukes, including pulling off a false flag of its own on the city of Novgorod. The Russians also order an invasion of Central Asia to restore the borders of the old Soviet Union. United States is forced to declare war on Russia and the infamous MAD finally commences between U.S. and Russia, leaving the two in ruins for the most part. Contrary to expectations - the Russians targeted farmland and major food distribution centers in the U.S. (buh-bye Walmart, Arkansas is nuked) and not the big cities with the exception of San Francisco, nuking the hell out of the Republican states, the Bible belt and many Midwestern cities are an absolute and total wasteland at this point, therefore eliminating the entire "armed citizen" facet of American society. Israel and Iran go to war as well. However, World War III is but a footnote, while it does cause the events of this timeline, it is not the focus.
=== Russia and China sign a deal with the Devil ===
Unbeknownst to the world, China and the Russian Federation had signed an agreement with E.T. forces, that in exchange for loyalty to the E.T.s, the the Chinese and the Russians would be the new superpowers, and help it destroy the United States and Europe as the people in the Kremlin knew, that it would not win a war against NATO alone. Therefore, the E.T.s help the Russians deflect U.S. nukes bound for Beijing and Moscow, and render their explosions useless. Therefore, with E.T. guidance and technology, China successfully invades most of Asia, and Russia successfully invades Western Europe - which at this point, has been plunged into a civil war. China and Russia agree to divide their spheres of influence among Central Asia as it becomes the dividing line between the Chinese and Russian zones of influence. Turkey gets jealous, signs a deal with the devil as well, and re-invades the former Ottoman Empire. Catalonian nationalists declare war against the Spanish Parliament, and is given weapons by Russia. Ireland too, gets Russian help into declaring independence from the United Kingdom. This gives Russians even more of a justification to act as "peacekeepers" (invaders really). Saudi Arabia agrees to use the Russian ruble for its petrol transection. Russian troops setup checkpoints in London, Paris, Prague, Rome, everywhere in Europe.
==== China and Russia learn the hard way.....World War IV ====
However - China and Russia had signed a deal with the Devil. The E.Ts then began requiring human sacrifices from all of its subordinate nations, as well as microchip implantation for the population, therefore leading China, Russia and Turkey to lead a feeble and failed global resistance against the E.T.s, who began laying waste to most of eastern China and most of Russia, most of Turkey and whatever was left of the United States. The Benevolen Divine Gods allowed the E.T.s to also crush the resistance, due to the selfish nature of the "resistance leaders". Eastern China and Russia is now a mess, and the Russian government is essentially forcefully dissolved and the nation erupts into anarchy. Russian and Chinese refugees flee to Central Asia, Mongolia and northern China establish a safe zone of some sort. Most of the world's politicians and military generals - who brought the hostile E.T.s into the world, perish as nothing more than another human sacrifice on the list. Surviving citizens who wished to be spared were to comply and become hosts and slaves to the E.T.s to which the overwhelming majority of the former political elite in the major nations of the United Nations. In order to force the humans to remain compliant, the E.T.s blocked out all sunlight by spraying a mysterious black mist in the sky forcing the humans to rely on the mercy of the E.T.s for food and sustinence. The E.T.s use humans as an energy source. In the former Yugoslavia, refugees and resistors hide out in the Željava Air Base, Željava becomes a future Safe Zone.
Most of Africa is like a knife cutting through butter for the E.T.s. However, remnants of the world's militaries were lucky enough to still have military scientists, to be able to captured downed E.T. craft and used crystal weaponry against the E.T.s, to lead Safe Zone communities guided by a mysterious figure known just by the "Messiah" and angelic beings - attributed to be the messiah of most major religious. Contrary to the movies, these Safe Zones aren't shanty redneck villages (though those do exist), and are extremely well-built and sophisticated, and being in these Safe Zones makes it seem almost as if the world is normal. These Safe Zones also have their own names, cultures, languages and etc., and have contact with other Safe Zones via "safe routes" - transit routes guided underground and aboveground guided and guarded by the Messiah. They form the Global United Resistance. For most part however, the military forces of the GUR try to avoid skirmishes with the E.T.s, as per the Messiah's warnings, a single battle or provocation would reveal all of the Safe Zones and their transit routes and cause their destruction. These "Safe Zones" even have hotels, restaurants and the such - giving their people hope of a semblance of normal life. The soldiers of these Safe Zones venture out into dangerous missions to help a select few free from their pods which keep them plugged as a battery source of the E.T.s.
=== The resistance ===
Most of the resisting military scientists are rebels and rogues from the armed forces of the former Russian Federation, United States, Germany, Japan and China. All major nations and states are under E.T. control. Moscow and Beijing are now nothing more but large human harvesting fields, although in the United States it is New York City, not Washington D.C. Therefore in Russia, former Warsaw Pact and Yugoslavia - the "mafia" now become the good guys - practically the only people keeping resistors in Russia alive. They have joint resistance opertions with counterparts from China and Germany, with the German resistors uniting and setting their differences aside.
Meanwhile, Beijing and Moscow is under complete E.T. subjagation, and the Forbidden City and Saint Basil's Cathedral is used for human sacrifices, E.T. worship, and the Winter Palace in Leningrad is where E.T.s, disguised as humans, live.
Most of China's population has fled to the Western regions, as Beijing and the major cities of eastern China are a hellhole of human harvesting farms. The Uyghur and Chinese end their rivalry, to fight the E.T.s. Tibet is a safe zone, and the joint-efforts with the Chinese, Uyghurs and Tibetans forms the united Xīfāng Alliance, ruled by the underground "Xīfāng dynasty", a dynasty that was formed by the intermarriage between the three ethnic groups.
=== A vicious cycle...... ===
Little did humanity know....that the overwhelming majority of these "Safe Zones" are controlled opposition, set up and allowed by the E.T.s., to eventually be destroyed. It is the E.T.s themselves that ultimately allow human military scientists to gain access to their technologies.
The E.T.s eventually built this cyclical rule over the Earth, by propping up "Safe Zones", to make resistors think they have a hope. Additionally, the "Messiah", too, and all the "angels" is an enemy E.T. who channcels gullible souls, knows where all the Safe Zones are, and reports them to the E.T.s
Every 120 years, the E.T.s prop up the "Messiah" narrative, and eventually - defeat destroy all of the Safe Zone governments to "restart the cycle all over again" after the "Final Battle", of which a total of five "Final Battles" have occured. Every 120 years, the "Messiah" chooses new people to "wake up" to inhabit these Safe Zones, all following partially falsified histories.
There is a realm, known as the "Outer Ave" in between the dimensions, as well as the "Unknown Zones", these two are the real safe zones and safe refugees that have survived the various cycles of war. They are, by the will of the Benevolents, or the Divine, virtually unknown to both the E.T.s, and mainstream resistors alike. These are led by "Guardians",benevolent E.T.s who have access to the Heavanlies via portals, tasked by benevolent E.T.s, to record and report histories of various worlds throughout the Galaxy. The Guardians are chosen to evacuate "worthy souls" from the fake Safe Zones.
After 6 cycles have passed of constant destruction - the benevolent E.T.s finally use the Souls of those were taken by the Guardian, and re-conquer the Earth in the Great Cosmic Earth War. This occurs amid the 7th "Final Battle". It is during the 7th Final Battle when the Guardian is allowed to take people into Outer Ave, and warn them of the truth about the "Safe Zones".
The reason that the Benevolents allow the Malignants to continue torturing Mankind is due to the greed that infests these "Safe Zones", since they are ruled by greedy leaders.
==Great Cosmic War (approx. 840 years into the future)==
After the 7th "Final Battle", the real Final Battle, the Great Cosmic War between Benevolents and Malignants rage and rock the Earth, causing epic destruction of cosmic proportion. Landmasses are changed, some lands sink, others rise from the ocean - mostly notably the continent of Zealandia.
