Chapter 842: Great Cosmic Alliance
Buzz!
A small metal box gradually moved over the tracks in front of me.
Assad picked it up and casually turned on the screen on the metal box. He clicked a few times and several sub-screens popped up. After confirming that there was no error in the item label, he handed it to Li Yu.
"Information state mass-energy detection device. It can search for objects that have been converted into information state, but its range is limited."
Li Yu took it. This small metal box had obviously been expanded in space. According to the display on the screen, it was a rather large mechanical device.
He has a way to compensate for the limited detection range, and then he can just embed it into the embedding hole of the [Symbiotic Reproduction Suit].
"You are so rude." Barosa next to him had a bad look on his face.
"We are all friends, there's no need to be polite." Li Yu looked at him, not too concerned about his tone.
"Friend..." Barosa snorted twice with unclear meaning, and did not pursue this trivial matter too much.
"All the major civilizations are watching us now. We will arrange a secret passage for you to leave here and avoid being discovered by them."
Assad continued, his expression calm and without any clues.
So thoughtful?
Li Yu's eyebrows jumped, and he asked tentatively: "Then how are you going to explain to other civilizations next?"
"They obviously won't believe what you say."
"This has nothing to do with you." Barosa said first:
"Although they are making things tense, the probability of a fight is very small. They are mostly just suppressing us."
"Besides, even if they really want to fight, we are not afraid!"
Then you are really awesome, Li Yu secretly complained.
Although Barosa is a cocky guy all the time, Li Yu doesn't really dislike him that much.
Instead, I wish all my enemies were like Barossa.
This is obviously an unrealistic fantasy.
"Okay, stop wasting time here, pack up and leave with us." Barossa urged bluntly.
"No need, just give me the route and I can go out by myself." Li Yu said with a twinkle in his eyes.
"No..." Barosa immediately shook his head: "The Führer's order is for us to escort you out personally."
Assad also added: "Without us following, there might be some trouble on the road."
Neither of them was willing to let Li Yu act alone and insisted on escorting him.
Li Yu looked at the two people in front of him and suddenly smiled: "Looking at your attitude, those who know me will understand that you are doing this for my own good. Those who don't know me will think that you are afraid that I will get out of control."
Barosa didn't care if his attitude gave anything away, and simply said, "We have done our best by not pursuing the trouble you caused us, and you are still nitpicking."
"That's true..." Li Yu nodded in agreement and said, "After all, you are not doing charity."
Assad didn't say anything, just looked at Li Yu in front of him.
He always felt that the other party's attitude was a little strange, as if he had noticed something was wrong, but he did not pursue anything.
Barosa snorted coldly and said, "It's good that you know."
"In that case, let's set off..."
Li Yu ignored this guy whose brain was all muscle and chuckled.
…
In the brilliant starry sky, an extremely large Protoss fleet is slowly advancing.
Gold is the main color of the fleet and it is extremely dazzling.
The outer defense circle of the Iron Blood Civilization has come into view.
The defense circle consists of fleets, interstellar fortresses, satellite bases and a large number of war machines.
At first glance, it seems like there is no end.
The shining matrix energy shield formed an extra-large protective shield that extended all the way out, like a wall made of energy, separating the two star fields.
For a civilization like the Iron Blood Civilization, whose territory is so vast, it is difficult to build a defense circle around the entire civilization.
This is just an interception force specially set up to target a certain fleet that has been detected.
In the command room of the Protoss flagship, the translucent fleet commander stood in front of the porthole, staring closely at the defense circle that was getting closer and closer.
He is Andrew Mason, a senior military officer of the Protoss fleet, and serves as the commander of this fleet.
The adjutant looked at the radar screen and whispered, "Commander Andrew, we have reached the enemy's defense circle. They have blocked the way ahead. Should we stop?"
Andrew didn't even turn his head and said calmly: "What's the order?"
"Enter the territory of the Iron Blood Civilization."
"Is this an iron-blooded civilization?" Andrew asked back.
“No, no…”
"Then why stop?"
"Understood!" The adjutant took a deep breath and sent an order in the channel, saying in a deep voice:
"Order all ships to keep moving forward and prepare for battle. If anyone continues to block our way, we will clear all the enemies that are blocking our way!"
The order came out quickly, and the warships of the Protoss fleet extended their gun barrels, aimed forward, and were ready to fire at any time.
The front team of the Protoss fleet gradually entered the range of the defense circle.
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and the atmosphere in the command room was becoming more and more tense. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, and almost all the crew members held their breath.
bite--
At this moment, a remote projection suddenly appeared in the command room. It was a senior member of the Protoss General Command.
"Stop moving forward immediately."
"Stop." Andrew's eyes flashed and he raised his hand and clenched his fist.
The adjutant immediately passed the order down.
Soon, the Protoss fleet slowly stopped, with only a short distance left.
The battleships in the front could almost see their respective crews through each other's portholes.
The soldiers of the Iron-Blooded Civilization almost gritted their teeth and stared at the fleet.
At the command, they would rush forward and tear the fleet to pieces.
Seeing this, the atmosphere in the command room eased and all the Protoss breathed a sigh of relief.
Andrew turned to look at the projection of the military leaders, seemingly not surprised at all, and asked calmly, "Any other instructions?"
"……wait……"
This confrontation has been going on for a long time and the atmosphere is tense.
On the fringes, spaceships with symbols of different civilizations are exploring the situation everywhere.
Neither side drove away these civilized spies.
In the highest conference rooms of major civilizations, the rulers of civilizations had already summoned their top leaders, who were nervously observing the situation on the front lines, feeling uneasy.
"The Protoss fleet has advanced a distance, but the Iron Blood Civilization still hasn't taken action. Are these arrogant lunatics really not afraid of angering those warmongers?"
The rulers of certain civilizations cursed as Protoss fleets disappeared one after another near the Iron Blood civilization.
The Protoss fleet is almost constantly compressing the defense circle of the Iron Blood civilization.
If the military armed fleet really enters the territory of the Iron-Blooded Civilization, we will have to fight even if we don't want to.
"I don't know how their negotiations are going, but please don't let them start a fight." Some high-ranking officials of the civilization secretly speculated.
The confrontation in this situation is just superficial. Secret negotiations must be going on at the same time, but they cannot detect that information.
As they guessed, five projections gathered together in a temporary meeting room.
The head, the prophet, the high priest, the creator god, and the ultimate wisdom are all here.
The big guys who can decide the direction of the universe are all thinking about it.
"First of all, let me make it clear that the body that failed to evolve is not in our hands. It had already been destroyed by that guy when we received the news." The leader spoke first, because he was the one being forced.
"No evidence." The prophet shook his head. "The evidence provided by the Eternal Civilization is very complete. We have verified it and there is no problem."
"Since that Dragon Lord appeared in the Iron Blood Civilization, he must have reached some kind of cooperation with you."
"If it's not a failed evolution, then may I ask what bargaining chips he has brought out?"
Drogheda glanced at the prophet and said indifferently: "This involves another confidential matter. I can't tell you."
We can't just say directly that we are going to start with him and provoke a war between you and the Eternal Civilization.
Wouldn’t Civilization Zero turn hostile on the spot?
"Then there's nothing to talk about?" The person who spoke was a strange life form, whose appearance was changing all the time.
In the last second he was a handsome interstellar human, and in the next second he turned into a hideous and terrifying deformed monster.
"Droyeda, why don't you hand over that Dragon Lord and we can all work together to torture him and determine whether the matter is true or not?"
"No, we will never abandon our partners!" Drogheda refused directly, and his plan to sow discord would still be exposed.
Moreover, if this matter were to get out, who would dare to cooperate with their iron-blooded civilization?
"I have a suggestion..." said the Protoss High Priest: "We cannot confirm whether what you said is true or not, but we can prove it from another aspect."
"As long as you are willing to pay a price similar to that of the failed evolutionary form to settle the matter, we will retreat."
Damn, this is a robbery, right?!
The head of state had a dark face. This group of bastards had seized their opportunity. He expressed a strong attitude:
"Nonsense, if you want to fight, then fight. At worst, we'll all be done for together!"
"Then everyone, prepare for war." The Protoss High Priest nodded, and there was no sign of anger on his face.
"There's no need to be so tense. If a fight really breaks out, no one will be the beneficiary." The Ultimate Wisdom spoke.
It seems like you were the one who caused this.
You're not trying to be a peacemaker now, are you?
Others gave him odd looks.
"Everyone just wants to take advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits from the Iron Blood Civilization."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expressions changed subtly, and Droyeda also snorted coldly.
Can artificial intelligence speak so directly?
You're making this so awkward for everyone. Can't you be more tactful?
"The Iron-Blooded Civilization has fallen into this quagmire at the right time and can only consider itself unlucky." The Ultimate Wisdom said:
"However, you can all see that our development has reached a bottleneck."
"The major civilizations are in an environment of confrontation and development, and technological blockade, and this environment has lasted for a long time. I think it's time to make a change."
These few words once again took the atmosphere of the meeting in another direction.
Drogheda was confused. Aren’t we conducting pre-war negotiations?
How did it become a discussion about the future situation of the universe?
"Perhaps we can establish a large cosmic alliance to conduct in-depth technical exchanges and learn from each other's strengths and overcome each other's weaknesses." The ultimate wisdom made a shocking statement.
"Of course, this is a long-term development plan. In the early stages, everyone will definitely resist this change. We need a leader to take the initiative to share technology so that everyone can feel the benefits of technology exchange."
"I know that no one is willing to share core technology. Your Excellency, you are unlucky this time, so please take the lead."
Droyeda was so angry that he laughed. Damn, after saying so much, you still want our core technology, right?
However, the prophet and the Protoss priest were both lost in thought.
They also noticed the problems mentioned by Eternal Civilization.
In today's universe, five top civilizations coexist, and none of them can do anything to anyone else.
However, because they are wary of each other, they have to invest a lot of unnecessary costs.
If there is no way to gain sufficient benefits , starting a war is not the first choice.
But they did not expect that the Ultimate Wisdom would mention the matter of union at this time.
This big ball of light is really... unexpected...
…
The projection in front of him gradually disappeared, and Drogheda frowned, wondering what he was thinking about.
Charles, who was waiting on the side, stepped forward and whispered, "Long Zun is ready to leave with General Assad."
Drogheda nodded and ordered, "Please ask Taras to come over."
Charles's face changed slightly, and then he left in a hurry.
Not long after, a tall and burly guy pushed the door open and walked in.
"The Führer."
His voice was dull.
"Sir Taras." Drojeda nodded and said, "You follow Asad and the others secretly. They will take Long Zun to the designated location, and the people of the Eternal Civilization will take action against him."
"When the time comes, if Long Zun reveals a secret worth taking action against, we will take him back."
"If it has no value to us, let's give it up ."
Taking action against Long Zun would make them take some unnecessary risks.
But they can let the Eternal Civilization take action and then decide whether to intercept or not depending on the situation.
"Understood." Taras looked indifferent. There was no problem. After receiving the order, he turned around and left.
"The Great Cosmic Alliance..."
Droyeda murmured in a low voice, this was the Eternal Civilization's action to help them ease the situation.
Pay some acceptable price and settle the matter.
However, he had never expected that the Ultimate Wisdom was planning such a thing.
The idea of five civilizations uniting, sharing resources and developing together does sound tempting.
