Mu Chen never believed that there was goodwill in this world for no reason, let alone two interstellar civilizations that had come into contact for the first time, and the Dumats were so generous, I am afraid that the rewards of the plot would be even greater.

After spending so much time in the slums, one of the most important lessons Mu Chen learned was to never believe in pie in the sky, the more delicious the food, the greater the conspiracy behind it.

This Dumatite named Kutat is very interesting, and as soon as they meet, they can't wait to show off their advanced technology, and also introduce the various capabilities of the Atlanta spacecraft in detail, isn't it just to hoist the appetite of the earthlings?

The reason for doing this, which is easy to understand, is nothing more than wanting to put these technologies on the shelves and make the people of the Earth Federation covet them in order to meet their demands.

Mu Chen watched this red-skinned little man perform there silently, anyway, it is not himself who should be anxious, the more urgent the other party becomes, the more advantageous he is, even if the Dumat's skills are not good, he must pretend to be indifferent at this time.

Kutat bragged for half an hour, and almost dismantled the power core of the spaceship to show Mu Chen, but what embarrassed him was that the other party didn't seem to be too interested, while the other earthlings had a lively expression, although they looked very envious of the Dumat's technology, but none of them showed any inevitable looks.

Kutat didn't know that Mu Chen was surrounded by the best politicians on the planet, all of whom were thick-skinned and black-hearted, and when they saw his impatient salesman appearance, they had already pondered it, and they all took a cold approach, listening to the introduction with a smile, but resolutely did not express their position.

Kutat was a little panicked in his heart, if the earthlings were not interested in the technology they brought, then how would the transaction be carried out after that, could it be true to complete the investigation mission of the Cosmic Alliance and return? Isn't this a trip for nothing?

"Mr. Kutat, you seem to be a little off topic, although your ship is very good, your mission is obviously not to boast about the technology of the Dumats, right?" Mu Chen kindly reminded.

Now Kutat was embarrassed, thinking that as soon as he took out the chips, the earthlings would pounce on him like hungry wolves, begging to trade these high-end technologies, but now the other party's cold attitude made him very weak.

"Well, I'm sorry, I seem to be a little carried away, so now let's talk about the next itinerary and the content of the investigation." Kutat could only bite the bullet and say.

The Cosmic Alliance will have a comprehensive assessment of the new members, from people's livelihood and economy to military strength, as well as racial characteristics, cultural habits, etc., all of which they need to know, in fact, they need to study the characteristics of the earth's civilization in every detail, so as to divide the civilization level.

The Cosmic Alliance divides the level of scientific and technological civilization of each member into three levels: high, medium and low, and the higher civilization only has five races, including the Dumats, and its strength cannot be underestimated, and it has a great advantage in technology or racial ability. Just like the elemental clan of the Andromeda Galaxy, although their level of technology is average, the clan is composed of various elemental energies, and their combat power is extremely terrifying, and their intelligence level is also very high.

A race with the strength to be able to sail across the galaxy is the standard of a medium civilization, and the earthlings can obviously only barely reach the standard, but because the Earth fleet has completely wiped out the Zerg that invaded the solar system before, and killed them

An adult female worm died, so it wasn't too much of a problem to classify them as a medium-civilized race.

As for the low-level civilizations, they are just a group of inferior creatures that don't even have the ability to protect themselves, most of them are vassals of the medium-level civilizations, and some are even lower-level slaves, and they don't have any say in the Cosmic Alliance.

Of course, there are some more detailed divisions within the high, medium and low civilizations, taking the intermediate civilization as an example, it includes five stars, and the status of the five-star intermediate civilization in the alliance is second only to the five advanced civilizations, and the fees paid are much lower, and you only need to pay a franchise fee of 1 million star yuan per interstellar year, and you can enjoy many benefits in the alliance.

The one-star intermediate civilization is actually almost the same as the low-level civilization, you can participate in the alliance meeting, but you have no right to speak and vote, and you have to pay a high transaction tax when you conduct trade activities in the alliance, and the annual franchise fee is as high as 100 million star yuan.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to bully the weak and fear the hard, only if the strength can be recognized by the Universe Alliance, can you gain the respect of other civilizations, otherwise you will dare to bully you as an individual.

This alliance is a huge pyramid where the races living at the top are treated better, while the races at the bottom are numerous but have very little power.

There is also a relationship between various civilizations in the universe, and the invasion of lower races by higher races has happened from time to time, but the success of lower races in resisting aggression has hardly been heard of.

After listening to the other party's introduction, Mu Chen and the others also felt in their hearts that joining the Universe Alliance did not seem to be a good thing, it was a game of opportunities and challenges.

The opportunity is very well understood, joining the formation of the Cosmic Alliance, whether in terms of civilization exchanges or economic exchanges, the Earth Federation can organize some far-away trade caravans, pull the materials produced by the solar system to other galaxies for sale, and then transport the local specialties back to the solar system, this back and forth will produce huge benefits, enough to make anyone blush.

And the exchange between civilizations can also allow earthlings to better understand the universe, and can even learn alien technology to improve their own strength.

What's more, the higher the level of civilization, the greater the treatment and power it can enjoy, and it can even ask the dependent race to help it fight.

The treaties and laws in the Cosmic Alliance are obviously more beneficial to the higher civilizations, and only by joining and entering can they receive protection, otherwise when other galactic civilizations invade, there may not even be a place to complain.

Of course, there are challenges, once you join the Cosmic Alliance, it means standing in a huge ring, and there will always be people who will try to snatch some power from the hands of the earthlings, which depends on whether the Earth Federation has the ability to protect its own interests.

Therefore, if the level of Chinese Ming in the Universe Alliance is too low, it will definitely not work, and it will be discriminated against by other alien civilizations. It's not a good thing that the status is too high, because there will be countless people who want to pull down the Earth Federation and take this place, and if they are not careful, they will fall into endless wars.

After figuring out what was going on in the Cosmic Alliance, Kutat explained that the process of this investigation was open and fair, and there would be no favoritism.

In fact, this is a hint to Mu Chen, there is a loophole in this assessment, it depends on whether the earthlings have eyes.

However, before figuring out what the Dumats wanted to gain from the earthlings, Mu Chen did not intend to act rashly, lest he end up becoming out of control, so he just sent a team of consultants as the Dumats' guides, and he held a meeting with the heads of the world, as well as representatives of the business and military circles, to discuss what level of civilization rights and responsibilities are more suitable.

The conference room in the office building of the Federal Headquarters was packed, and all the leading figures in front of them were present.

Mu Chen sat in the middle position and explained in detail the situation passed by the Dumats, so that everyone could have a general understanding.

"The above is all the information about the Cosmic Alliance that we have now, only after joining can we get detailed information between other civilizations, everyone can talk about any ideas and brainstorm ideas."

The conference room of tens of thousands of people was quiet, and everyone waited patiently for Mu Chen to finish speaking before discussing with each other.

After a long time, a representative of the business community took the lead and said: "Mr. Chief, all the elites from all walks of life, as a representative elected by my friends in the business circles, I would like to share the opinions of our businessmen. ”

"Please!" Mu Chen leaned back in his chair and said seriously.

"Joining the Universe Alliance is of great benefit to us in terms of business, which means that there is a huge market with almost no borders, and with our trading capacity, as long as we can ensure the safety of the caravan, it can bring incalculable huge benefits every year, and conservative estimates are also measured in trillions, which can solve the global employment problem in one fell swoop."

"If we can have the escort of the Space Force, our Business Alliance is willing to unconditionally support the Earth Federation to join the Space Alliance, and hand over 15% of the interstellar trade profits to the Earth Federation to serve as the military expenses of the Federation fleet, and cooperate with all the requirements of the Federation."

The business alliance has never been united, in the face of huge interests, they are out of the way, 15% of the profits are handed over to the treasury, Mu Chen can build a more powerful fleet, before these businessmen are very face-saving, it can be said that they unreservedly support the construction of the space fortress, Mu Chen still more or less received their affection.

What's more, just as this representative said, opening up the interstellar market will be a great stimulus to all walks of life, all enterprises will expand recruitment, and some unemployed poor people will also have more employment opportunities, fundamentally solving the problem of high unemployment rate and too large gap between the rich and the poor on the earth.

"Tell me what you think from the military department." Mu Chen did not make a direct decision, and was ready to listen to the opinions of others.

"Mr. Chief, we have repeatedly discussed before, joining the Universe Alliance is inevitable, but the key is how to ensure the status and power of the Earth Federation in the Universe Alliance, with the current strength of our fleet, it is not suitable for large-scale battles, we have to prepare for the Zerg invasion again in three years...... Therefore, I would suggest a relatively conservative approach and try not to engage in friction with other civilizations. A white-haired general said seriously.

Mu Chen nodded: "We didn't want to invade others in the past, but whoever wants to attack us earthlings has to see if their necks are hard enough!" ”

"Heads of state should also talk about it, today we will speak freely, talk about everything, don't hide it."
