Next chapter

Milky Way, Blue Star.

33 years ago, Tang Le became the consul of the Blue Star civilization, 33 years have passed, the status of the consul of Tang Le has risen from the third consul to the second consul, many people believe that in less than 20 years, Tang Le can become the first consul, so as to stand in the Blue Star civilization.

Tang Le's success is of course due to some factors, such as his family background, etc., but his ability is also the key to being able to get to this point. What's more, in presiding over the project of Shuanghuan Company, Tang Le showed excellent governance and coordination skills, which is the capital of his real strength.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Tang Le's current status is enviable, but they don't understand the truth that the higher the status, the greater the responsibility. In Tang Le's own opinion, as he returned from the Andromeda Galaxy, he was overwhelmed by countless trivial matters every day, and as an archon, he was not only a never-ending meeting, but also had to deal with the large and small events of the entire civilization. Sometimes, he even wanted to abandon his position as an archon and become an ordinary Blue Star man, but this may be possible for others, but this is impossible for Tang Le, because he still shoulders the heavy responsibility of the family.

In the spare time of rare rest, Tang Le missed the old days very much, especially the time he and Su Yichen had experienced. So many years have passed in a flash, and the Blue Star boy of the year has grown to his current status, and even Gao Jian and others, who were traveling together, are now also the high-level of the earth's civilization. Time flies! Recalling the past of the year, the corners of Tang Le's mouth, who had become accustomed to appearing in front of the public with a strict face, drew a smile.

More than 100 years ago. Su Yichen and his wife left the solar system on the New Pioneer spacecraft, and more than 100 years later. They still haven't returned. No one can know where Su Yichen and his wife have gone, and whether they have encountered accidents in the universe. Thinking of this, Tang Le couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, the disappearance of Su Yichen and his wife is not only a great loss to the civilization of the earth, but also a pity for Tang Le, who is an old friend, besides. Now the situation of the civilization of the earth is not very good. Not long ago, the Blue Star Civilization received an urgent message, and when he saw the content of this news, Tang Le was taken aback, and couldn't help but be deeply worried about the Earth Civilization.

"Consul, the meeting is about to begin." Tang Le was lost in thought, and he didn't know how long it had been, when his secretary reminded him softly.

Looking at the time, there is still half an hour to come, Tang Le nodded slightly. Stand up and get ready to go.

Today's meeting is very important because this is a meeting of the consuls. The political system of the Blue Star Civilization is slightly different from that of the Earth Civilization, and the highest level of power of the Blue Star Civilization is controlled by the three archons, and these three archons create the troika. Thus holding the supreme decision-making power of the Blue Star Civilization.

Tang Le is the second consul, in fact, in terms of status, there is no difference between the three consuls, but in terms of the specific scope of responsibility, the three are responsible for politics, economy and military aspects. Literally, the consul in charge of military affairs should be the most powerful, but in reality this is not the case. Because there are a series of departments within the government, including the military department, from this point of view, the role of the consul in charge of the military is roughly equal to the position of the commander-in-chief of the three armed services or the chief of the general staff of the general staff, although the specific subdivision is somewhat different.

Therefore, the consul in charge of military affairs is the third consul with the least power among the three consuls, and the second consul is the consul in charge of the economy, that is, the work that Tang Le is now taught, and the political aspect is the jurisdiction of the first consul. However, the division of power is not so rigid, and the three consuls also have a certain right to meddle in part of each other's jurisdiction, coupled with the containment of the rights of various government departments, which can lead to the balance of rights.

This form of government has been running in the Blue Star civilization for many years, and it can be said that when the Blue Star civilization entered the ranks of cosmic civilizations, this form and structure of politics have been formed. With continuous evolution and refinement, such a political form and structure have become very mature.

The place where he went to the meeting was not far from Tang Le's office, and when he took the internal teleportation pod, Tang Le had been frowning slightly and did not speak, and the secretary sitting opposite him looked at Tang Le with the same melancholy face, and even looked like he wanted to say something.

"What? Something? Tang Le asked when he saw the secretary's expression.

The secretary thought for a while and nodded: "Archon, although the Earth civilization and our Blue Star civilization have a friendship for hundreds of years, according to the relationship between the two sides, we should have taken action in this situation, but don't forget that they are in big trouble, so ......." ”

"Needless to say!" Before the other party could finish speaking, Tang Le stopped him extremely harshly, and the secretary looked extremely embarrassed, and at the same time did not know how to explain it.

Sighing lightly, Tang Le slowed down and said, "I understand what you mean, you say this for my sake, and also for the sake of our Blue Star Civilization." Although I, Archon, the relationship between the same Earth civilization and us has always been good, but I am still a member of the Blue Star Civilization, and my every move must be considered in the interests of the Blue Star Civilization, do you think I should make such a choice? ”

The secretary nodded silently, what Tang Le said was not wrong at all, this is what he meant just now. Now, the earth's civilization is in great trouble, and this trouble may even bring about the demise of the earth's civilization. According to the relationship between the two civilizations, the Blue Star Civilization should lend a helping hand in this case, but unfortunately, the civilization that has brought trouble to the Earth Civilization is too powerful, and in the face of such an opponent, the Blue Star Civilization will not help even if it stands with the Earth Civilization.

What's more, once such a decision is made, it will even bring disaster to the Blue Star civilization, how can you not worry about it as a Blue Star person? The secretary is Tang Le's confidant, he knows that Tang Le has a deep personal relationship with the high-level of the Earth Civilization, if it weren't for such a bad situation, the secretary would not have said these words, and now the secretary reminded Tang Le that his intention was to let him show his attitude at the meeting, once Tang Le was rash and dragged the Blue Star Civilization into the war. So let's not talk about what kind of consequences it will bring to the Blue Star civilization, this alone will also affect the stability of Tang Le's position.

"Something. You don't understand....... Tang Le sighed lightly, and then he didn't say anything more, but closed his eyes slightly.

"Don't understand? What exactly does consul mean? Is it to support the civilization of the earth or ......? The secretary was puzzled by his tone, and he didn't know what he meant. In fact, not only him, it can be said that there are not many people in the entire Blue Star Civilization who know the inside story, and Tang Le is the only Blue Star person who knows the whole situation.

The teleportation pod is a special means of transportation. In a way, it's somewhat similar to an elevator or a flying car. Say it's like an elevator. This is because the conveyor pod, like the elevator, is a closed container that runs on a certain track. As for saying that it resembles a flying car, because it runs the same as a flying car, if it is described in one way, the miniaturized bus may be more appropriate.

Of course, the interior comfort of the conveyor pod is unmatched by ordinary vehicles, and its speed and safety are also very reliable. The transportation of the teleportation pod of the Blue Star civilization is very developed, and the teleportation pod used by ordinary people is of course not as good as that used by Tang Le, but it is much more convenient to shuttle back and forth to another place in a short period of time than other means of transportation.

Soon. The teleportation pod arrived at its destination, and when the hatch opened, it was not the platform that appeared in front of Tang Le, but the inner corridor of a building. Walk straight out and walk through this corridor and go through two more doors, and this is where today's meeting is located.

"I'm not late, am I?" Walking into the conference room, First Archon Murphy and Third Archon Juventus had already arrived, and there was still an empty seat in front of a triangular conference table, and this seat was Thanle's position. Tang Le greeted the two archons and walked straight to his seat and sat down.

"We've just arrived." Juventus nodded to Thanle and said, as for Murphy, he sat in his position with a stern expression. He just nodded slightly to Tang Le.

When everyone arrives, the meeting begins. Due to the importance of the content of the meeting, the secretaries of the three consuls were not present at the meeting, not even the usual note-takers, and they were the only ones in the entire conference room.

"Everyone knows the situation, we have to come up with a plan as much as possible, what do you two think?" Murphy asked, his expression extremely stern.

Donle didn't speak, just sat quietly, Murphy's gaze swept over Donle's face, and then fell on Juventus. Juventus felt a little bitter in his heart, among the three consuls, he was the third consul, and it seemed that Murphy asked him to speak first. But it's okay, he's ready before he comes anyway, so let's just make a statement.

"We have a centuries-old friendship with the civilization of the earth, and we have been working together well since our contact. It is not an exaggeration to say that we are allies of each other, whether it is people-to-people exchanges or official exchanges. Juventus first mentioned the relationship between the Blue Star Civilization and the Earth Civilization, and then changed the conversation and said: "According to the normal situation, when the Earth Civilization encounters difficulties, it is necessary for our Blue Star Civilization to lend a hand, but the problem is that this time the Earth Civilization is in too much trouble, and now the Nimunle Civilization has publicly announced to the galaxy that it will wage war against the Earth Civilization, in this case, even if our Blue Star Civilization joins the war, with the combined strength of our and the Earth Civilization, we will not be able to resist the attack of the Nimunle Civilization." So I think that in this case, the Blue Star civilization should definitely not intervene in this war, so as not to ignite itself. ”

Speaking of this, not only did Tang Le look displeased, but even Murphy frowned deeply. If the Blue Star Civilization really stood by and turned a blind eye to what happened to the Earth Civilization, then this would bring great image damage to the Blue Star Civilization. Moreover, the earth civilization has always been an important ally of the Blue Star Civilization from a certain Cheng Dù, and the plans of the two sides in the Andromeda Galaxy have been going on for hundreds of years, including the exchanges between the people and the government, the two civilizations have long been inseparable, once the Blue Star Civilization does this, it will not only cause the disgust of ordinary Blue Star people, but even the rest of the civilizations that have diplomatic relations with the Blue Star Civilization will criticize the Blue Star Civilization. If one's own ally is attacked and the other side withdraws from the situation, can such an ally still be called an ally?

"Have you considered the consequences of doing this?" Murphy asked.

Juventus nodded: "Of course, the consequences of doing so are very strict, which will bring great confusion to our civilization, including the collapse of the image." But you also have to know that in the face of absolute power, what if we join the side of the earth's civilization? Juventus made a very regretful gesture: "We can't make more choices than civilization as a whole, if we get involved in a war, maybe we will become a funeral companion to the civilization of the earth, as a member of the Blue Star people, especially the Archons, this decision is painful, but it must be done." ”

Juventus's words silenced Murphy, yes! This is indeed a painful choice, and as an archon, he must consider the safety of his own civilization and look at the problem in terms of personal feelings, which is an immature appearance. Moreover, according to the intelligence of the Blue Star Civilization, the Nimonle Civilization has crossed that hurdle and has become a high-level cosmic civilization from a medium-level cosmic civilization.

In the face of such a powerful opponent, the Earth civilization that had just entered the intermediate cosmic civilization could not resist it at all, and their fate seemed to be decided from the moment the Nimonle civilization was ready to start a war. What if the Blue Star Civilization joins the side of the Earth Civilization? The difference in the level of civilization cannot be countered by quantity, and in front of a high-level civilization, even if it is in front of a seventh-level cosmic civilization, the combination of two intermediate-level cosmic civilizations is useless.

From this point of view, the Blue Star Civilization can only make such a choice. But this does not mean that the Blue Star Civilization will not care about the Earth Civilization anymore, if they really do this, then in the future, it will be a shackle tied to the Blue Star Civilization, and it will also bring extremely severe consequences in the normal relationship with the rest of the universe civilizations.

Yes, there is a rule in the galaxy that no war can be started between civilizations in the universe, but this rule is not limited to advanced civilizations. What's more, before announcing this news, the Nimunle civilization also came up with evidence that the Earth civilization had attacked and destroyed the Nimunle Civilization spaceship, second only to this, although the Earth civilization has always denied it, but at least there is an excuse to start a war, and the outbreak of war is irreversible.

What the Blue Star Civilization can do now is to find a way to preserve a part of the seeds for the Earth civilization, and this part of the seeds may become the hope of the future of the Earth civilization. Murphy felt that the Twin Rings Company in the Andromeda Galaxy might be a good place to stay away from the war, and there were already many members of the Earth civilization there, and when the Earth civilization was destroyed in the solar system, the surviving Earth could also start the revival of their civilization in the distant Andromeda Galaxy, which could be said to be the maximum help of the Blue Star Civilization.
