Chapter 214: Order Maintained by Some Force [2/5]
It is said that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, and Bai Mu is now deeply touched. When he is on Earth and is closed to information, he will never come into contact with these intergalactic secrets and countless splendid cultures in the vast starry sky.
The location of the earth and even the nine kingdoms is itself a bit remote, and in addition to Odin's governing philosophy, there is relatively little foreign communication, which has caused information blockage.
In the constant exchange, the picture of the universe is enriched in the mind, although civilization is not easy to encounter, but the civilization in the interstellar era has never met and communicated.
Only now did Bai Mu understand that in the universe - at least in the consensus of many civilized races, there are two major empires, one is the Cree Empire established by the Cree people, they are relatively barbaric, very warlike, and promote a kind of militarism.
The Xia Empire, a younger but more inclusive empire, is made up of a large number of alien races, cultures, and worlds, with strong commercial and technological prowess and merchants all over the starry sky.
The in-ear translator used by Bai Mu is produced by Xia. There was also a saying that there were "three empires", and Skrull could be counted among them at one time.
However, after suffering blows, internal and external strife, they have seriously regressed in all aspects, and Skrull has existed in name only, and has not appeared in the eyes of the outside world for a long time.
Therefore, it is now generally believed that only the two empires of Xia and Kree stand side by side, and the starry sky is divided into large and small civilizations, which have formed this extremely glorious era.
The facts and Bai Mu's speculation are quite big.
There is no absolute disparity in strength between civilizations, and even if there are two great empires, it does not mean that they can crush other countries casually. At the combat level, they are just a little more technologically advanced, with more population and resources.
It's like an enlarged earth, the two major empires of the universe are the United States and the Soviet Union, and other countries mix their own, although you are strong, you have to pay the price if you want to bully me.
But it's not what Bai Mu thinks: the strength of a powerful empire transcends several levels, and a missile millions of light-years away can instantly compress your galaxy into two dimensions.
"I don't think there's that yet, right?" Bai Mu told them what he thought.
The gossip nobles shook their heads: "The empire is very strong, but not that strong, you should be talking about a higher level of wisdom, but it is rarely active in our sight." ”
"Tell me more?" Bai Mu is like a curious baby.
Hela put her arm around him and listened slowly, the chat atmosphere developed very harmoniously, everyone liked the queen, and they also let go of the topic to talk, and many secrets were thrown out.
"Absolutely." A senior member of the Nova Legion spoke, "The Star Eater mentioned earlier, it is the strong man or civilization in the mouth of the little prince, and he just wants to encounter it in this huge universe...... It is better to calculate the probability of the fall of the Kree Empire. ”
"If you say so, I also know something, and it is said that their technology is powerful enough to intervene in the reality and constants of this universe, and they can use the power we are not yet familiar with to modify some natural order and change the laws of life and death, so that the dead can be immortal."
Listening to their popular science and observations, Bai Mu understood: "So these civilizations that have greatly surpassed their strength are rarely active?" Or went to be active somewhere else? ”
"That's right." Everyone agrees with that.
The one with superb strength either can't meet it, or it runs away, and if there is no tiger in the mountains, the monkey is the overlord. The three great empires, the two great empires, were established in this situation.
Just like the concept on the earth, the United States boasts that it is the strongest in the world, but it does not count the vast starry sky - those strong people outside will not or rarely patronize the earth, so the United States is blowing into the sky.
This kind of universe is different from the big melee that Bai Mu guessed, it presents a kind of "order", as if there is a force behind the scenes to maintain it, and all levels do not interfere, or rarely interfere.
"A lot of earthlings' conjectures about the starry sky have been overturned." Bai Mu thought in his heart that the human beings who had not even come out of the solar system were still limited in their conjectures about the universe.
……
Everyone gossiped together, and the enhancement of feelings was fast, and after a few days and various gatherings, the queen and his party had become the "most popular guests" of Xiandaxing, and the upper class people wanted to participate.
Originally, Bai Mu wanted to rely on borrowed technology, but Hela's methods were more flexible, and she sent ministers to contact the other party, and at the unofficial level, diplomatic and technical exchanges were launched.
He also said that Asgard admired the technology system of the new star, praised this as a very promising future, and it is very worthy of learning, in short, it is to praise the other party.
Wait until the other party is fluttering, and then express that they want to learn from the new franchise country of Asgard to help those who are still struggling in the barbaric era to improve productivity and get rid of ignorance.
As a result, the great nobles of Xianda Star were so generous that they could directly express that they could provide scientific and technological support, and that they should be regarded as a witness to the friendly cultural exchanges between the two countries and a new starting point for friendship and cooperation.
We fully support this sentence, which directly saves Bai Mu's previous little Jiujiu, and he also wants to say that only the backward ones will not be exposed to advanced technology and eliminate the misunderstanding of the other party...... All of them!
In addition to strategic weapons of destruction and classified military equipment, the technology in the civilian field is directly connected to today's technology, and the military industry is only a little behind.
"This level of refreshment, compared to those countries on the earth, it's like a fortune boy!" Bai Mudu had to sigh, he was also a human being, how could the Xiandarui people be so interesting!
Hella sees more: "These technologies or equivalent technologies can also be bought through commercial transactions, and Nowell can buy stronger strategic weapons." ”
In fact, there are also considerations of diplomatic interests, the Nova Empire does not think that Asgard is weak, it is like a country that is beyond the world, but the whole people are martial, and they are willing to form alliances with the outside world.
But Bai Mu is still very happy: "What we can buy is different from what we can learn." Now they are giving valuable knowledge! ”
Hela complied: "We will give them apples in exchange gifts." ”
Golden apple. The upper echelons of the Nova Empire have all obtained this rarity that most people have heard of, but rarely tasted. Eat the golden apple, youthful and energetic, and return to the youthful years...... Even with reliable biotechnology to slow down aging, the golden apple's versatility is still superior to theirs.
"So the image of a bright and majestic shore is also very useful." Bai Mu bit the apple, asked his subordinates to count the results, and brought these back to the earth, which is definitely developed!
"It's a bit of a drain of patience." Hela took off the crown, but when she saw this completely different image of herself in the mirror, her attitude relaxed, "It's also worth living with a different attitude." ”
"That's what we want a queen like that." As long as Bai Mu is still there, he can't change it.
"The clever ghost is still very sweet." She laughed.
"Your Majesty." Eden showed up at this point, she didn't want to be a light bulb but the matter was more important, "We got news from the collector. ”
"Say."
Eden said, "Among the Star Marauders, a man of the 'Yongdu Udon Tower', who once abducted children from Earth to do business, he knows the fast track to Earth! ”
