Chapter 330: A Surprising Decision
That necklace is carved from the purest engram crystal, and its own value is very terrifying, and it can easily be exchanged for a high-level space battleship, and the most important thing is the content stored in the engram, which is all the scientific research achievements of Proxima Centauri.
It includes not only electromagnetic and sonic weapons, but also core secrets such as nanorobotics and leap technology, which are somewhat underestimated in terms of price.
Although they were a little puzzled by what His Majesty Carlos was doing, the entourage didn't say much, because His Majesty is the god in the hearts of every Proxima Centauri, and even if his approach is wrong, Proxima Centauri will go with him without hesitation.
Since the other party was a fairly formal diplomatic visit, Mu Chen naturally didn't want to be too casual, so he asked the female secretary to take His Majesty Carlos and his party to the conference room to wait for a while, and he changed into the military uniform he usually wore on weekdays, wearing a capable black fleet commander's dress, which raised his spirit to the extreme.
Angela wanted to take Yaoyao to play in the office full of plush toys, but she was not interested in these diplomatic things at all. But who knew that Yaoyao was reluctant to leave as soon as she saw His Majesty Carlos, who was blue-skinned and silver-haired, crying and shouting for His Majesty Carlos to hug, and she still couldn't get out in the other party's arms.
So Angela also changed into a formal suit and stayed by her daughter's side, not to react that Proxima Centauri would hurt Yaoyao, just staring at Yaoyao and biting people at every turn, this girl doesn't know who to learn from, she can't be idle after growing two small front teeth, like a little hamster, she likes to find something to nibble on when she has nothing to do, and she has to make up her mind to change this habit when she turns around.
Mu Chen can't count on it, he spoils his daughter to heaven, he depends on his daughter in everything, even if he is bitten by his daughter and squeaks and screams, he smiles and grins, this bad guy who corrects his daughter's bad habits can only be done by Angela herself.
Although Mu Chen's unprincipled doting made Angela a little helpless, she was still very moved in her heart, at least the family accepted herself and Yaoyao smoothly, and even Laura loved Yaoyao like her own daughter, which made Angela feel unprecedented happiness.
His Majesty Carlos seems to be very good at taking care of children, and communicates with Yaoyao with big eyes and small eyes, anyway, ordinary people can't understand what they say, until Yaoyao is tired of playing, and he is a little reluctant to return the little girl to Angela.
"I have to say that Mr. Mu Chen's life is really enviable." Carlos said with emotion.
"Haha, you also have an excellent daughter." As soon as Yaoyao was mentioned, Mu Chen couldn't help but feel comfortable, and exchanged his experience of raising children with His Majesty Carlos, without mentioning anything serious.
After a long time, His Majesty Carlos spoke: "Mr. Mu, I have come this time to discuss with you......
Mu Chen can only get serious, His Majesty the Emperor of Proxima Centauri came over to find him in a hurry, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing, but everyone understands people, and if you change the topic again, I'm afraid it will be underestimated.
Stretching out his hand to refill the other party's teacup, Mu Chen said solemnly: "Since you are here, let's talk freely, you and I are both people who have come down from the battlefield, not politicians who play around the road, you might as well say it if you have something to say." ”
"Haha, it's really a hero out of a teenager, Mr. Mu's character is very temperamental to me!" Carlos smiled heartily: "Then I'll just say it......"
"Proxima Centauri has been greatly damaged in the long years of war, and the endless battle with the Zerg has made our brilliant civilization about to extinction, you may not think that when the Proxima Centauri civilization was at its peak, it used to be a five-star intermediate civilization in the Cosmic Alliance, with a population of more than 10 billion, but now our entire population is less than 13 million, and the war has completely dragged us down, so ......"
His Majesty Carlos said with some difficulty: "So we don't want to participate in the war again, we just want to have a living space of our own, so that the tired people can breathe, and the Proxima Centauri civilization can continue to spread." ”
Mu Chen naturally understands the current predicament faced by Proxima Centauri, but to put it mildly, what do these things have to do with us earthlings, you can't be pitiful Proxima Centauri, we have to help you recuperate, right? If Proxima Centauri eases up and their ambitions grow in the future, won't the Earth Federation raise tigers?
"Mr. Carlos, I understand what you mean, and I personally sympathize with the plight of Proxima Centauri, those zergs are really not a good thing, no wonder they will become the public enemy of all civilizations in the universe." Mu Chen said with a sincere face:
"But you should also understand one thing, the solar system is the legal territory of our earthlings, this is a fact recognized by the Cosmic Alliance, we allow Proxima Centauri to live temporarily on Titan, but sooner or later we will take back this habitable planet."
The current Earth Federation can no longer be the same as it was at the beginning, with the technical support of the Dumats, the comprehensive strength of the Earth Federation has been greatly improved, the once invincible Proxima Centauri fleet is no longer too much of a problem, Mu Chen is even confident that they will directly annihilate their super fleet, unless they open the jump channel and run away, it is almost a doomed victory.
The reason why he didn't do this was just that Mu Chen wanted the internal stability of the solar system, and by the way, let the Proxima Centauri people clean up the infrastructure on Titan, and when the Reaper fleet returned from the Ursa Minor system, it would be time for Mu Chen to tear up the agreement.
Proxima Centauri has a particularly enviable trait, their building ability is too strong, and they are also very experienced in the use of space and resources, which is a habit they have developed after living on space battleships for a long time, and every inch of space will be greatly used, and the efficiency is amazing.
In just one or two years, the Titan Star has been well organized by the Proxima Centauri, and what is even more unexpected is that they have not destroyed too much of the natural environment, and while developing industry, they are also protecting the Titan Star at the same time, and ensuring that the original features on the Titan are not destroyed as much as possible.
People only know the importance of this thing when they really lose something, and after the death of their home planet, Proxima Centauri has almost done the best to protect the environment of the habitable planet, even if the planet does not belong to them.
His Majesty Carlos also knows that sooner or later, the earthlings will have to reclaim Titan, and at that time, the Proxima Centauri will start their wandering journey again to find a new living space.
It is impossible to resist, not to mention that the Earth Federation is now a member of the Cosmic Alliance, and is subject to the Alliance
The protection of the law, only in terms of combat effectiveness, Proxima Centauri no longer has much advantage.
"We Proxima Centauri know these things very well, but ......" His Majesty Carlos hesitated, not knowing what to say next, after all, the stakes are very high, and the fate of almost all Proxima Centauri is decided.
"Your Majesty Carlos, I must warn you that when the Proxima Centauri leased Titans, the methods they used were not honorable......," Mu Chen said with a frown.
The excuse used by Proxima Centauri was that the transport ship of the Earth Federation broke into the jump passage of the Proxima Centauri, causing the crash of the Proxima Centauri warship, so it was necessary to pay a huge amount of compensation, but the Earth Federation could not pay, so they were forced to lease Titan to them.
And the Reaper fleet, which had used a jump channel, had basically figured out the principle of this technology, and with the capabilities of the space transport ship at that time, it was impossible to crash into a Proxima Centauri warship, which was obviously the other party playing tricks on it.
Before, due to the lack of strength, Mu Chen had always suppressed this pimple in his heart, but now the wings of the Earth Federation fleet are stiff, and he also has the qualifications to be able to reason with Proxima Centauri.
"I confess that we have not done a glorious job in this matter...... "His Majesty Carlos did not force his words, but apologized earnestly.
"But this time I came to you, not to discuss what happened before, but to find a way out that is beneficial to both parties."
Mu Chen frowned, what does this Carlos mean? I've lived on Titan for so long, and I still don't want to leave? That's not good, the territorial sovereignty of the Earth Federation is inviolable, and you have to kick out this tenant who doesn't pay the rent!
But His Majesty Carlos's next words surprised Mu Chen a little, he never thought that this emperor of Proxima Centauri would have the courage to do this.
"I hope that Proxima Centauri can become a part of the Earth Federation, as long as the Earth Federation agrees, we will give up the identity of the Proxima Centauri as the master of the Centauri galaxy, completely integrate into the Earth civilization, and become one of the many member countries of the Earth." His Majesty Carlos finally spoke out about his plan, but even his retinue stood up and firmly opposed it.
"Your Majesty, you can't do this, even if we continue to wander in the universe, at least we can ensure the independence of Proxima Centauri, but once we give up the sovereignty of the galaxy, it is equivalent to giving up the qualification to recover the home planet, please think twice, Your Majesty!" The officials who followed him couldn't care so much anymore and pleaded anxiously.
His Majesty Carlos was unmoved, but looked into Mu Chen's eyes, and said word by word: "Proxima Centauri is willing to become a member of the Earth Federation, accept the leadership of the Earth Federation, obey the legal system of the Earth people, and only hope to have the same status and power as a member state, I don't know if Mr. Chief can agree to such a request?" ”
How could Mu Chen not be impressed, if Proxima Centauri became a member of the Earth Federation, not to mention that the jump technology and other Proxima Centauri technologies could have a chance to get their hands on it, if the Earth Federation fleet found a way to drive out the Zerg of the Centauri galaxy in the future, then it could directly have the absolute sovereignty of this galaxy, and become a super civilization that controlled the two major galaxies, and had the opportunity to compete with the five giants, which is a pie-in-the-sky thing.
