"Hello, leader of the Blue Horse Consortium!" Zhou Chen thought for a while, and immediately responded to the other party enthusiastically. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the universe, there are very few cases of true friendship, although it is not nothing, but it is really rare, between civilizations and civilizations, it is more of a relationship linked by interests, just like the relationship between countries in the earth period, no country is out of friendship to help other countries, take the initiative to help other countries, there must be strategic considerations, let alone at the expense of their own interests to help other countries.

At the level of civilization, this distinction is clearly due to the difference in civilization and race, and it has become more naked. After all, it is the most important matter related to the survival of civilization, and any civilization will be extremely vigilant against civilizations that are not its own.

Thus, if several civilizations are united in the universe, the most common case is a subordination to the Ferro civilization and its vassals. To put it bluntly, a powerful civilization squeezes the potential of other civilizations through some means, and such a union is established under the power of the suzerain's civilization, and there is a great resistance within itself, and if you are not careful, it may collapse.

But Zhou Chen found that this so-called "Blue Horse Consortium" was different, and Zhou Chen found from the picture that the Pegasus civilization represented by the Guru was certainly the leader of this consortium, sitting in the central position, but next to him sat the representatives of eleven civilized races.

The oval-shaped round table reflects to a certain extent the equality of civilizations within the consortium.

This is really a relatively rare form in the universe! Therefore, while Zhou Chen was interested in the alliance organization of the Blue Horse Consortium, he couldn't help but have a good impression in his heart.

This is the first time that the Earth civilization has communicated with an extraterrestrial civilization in a real sense since leaving the solar system, and the goodwill exchange with each other has put both sides in an equal context.

First of all, both the Blue Horse Consortium and the Earth Civilization have made a brief introduction to their own situation.

As a result, Zhou Chen's understanding of the Blue Horse Consortium has also been further deepened. It turned out that this alternative group was an alliance that took advantage of the war between the Ferro civilization and the Odo civilization to break away from the alliance of more than a dozen vassal civilizations controlled by the Ferro civilization, the universe is so big, and the strength of a single civilization is so weak, it is indeed necessary to unite.

"Congratulations, Mr. Gullas, on your freedom, and I am glad for you." Very ordinary diplomatic etiquette, Zhou Chen was sincerely happy for them.

"Thank you, Captain Earth."

Gu Luo smiled slightly and accepted the kindness sent by Zhou Chen.

The two sides had another exchange, and Zhou Chen also estimated the approximate strength of the Blue Horse Consortium from the exchange, and he couldn't help but be surprised. Unexpectedly, this vassal civilization consortium, which had just been out of the control of the Ferro civilization for a short time, had actually reached the level of the late stage of the third-level civilization after just a few decades of development!

Although the population is not very large, it is worthy of 40 billion, but I have to say that this strength is already very powerful in the universe!

Imagine that the current Earth Fleet has only entered the threshold of third-level civilization with one foot, and the population is only seven billion, which can only be regarded as immature children compared to them!

This also reflects a situation, that is, including the Pegasus civilization, these dozen civilizations that were originally vassal to the Ferro civilization must have their own strengths, and now they are actively united from the Ferro civilization, which is actually equivalent to integrating their own science and technology, which is equivalent to reshaping a new civilization with a technological level comparable to the Ferro civilization in its heyday!

And after that unbearable period of suffering under the fence, these civilizations especially cherish the present life, and deeply understand how dangerous this universe is without a strong alliance!

I think it is precisely because of this unusual experience that they were able to abandon the differences between civilizations and unite in a real sense to form the current Blue Horse Consortium that looks so weird!

Although Zhou Chen's understanding of the universe is far less profound than that of the Pegasus civilization, he also knows that the existence of the Blue Horse Consortium must be very different.

Of course, what made him feel even more was the impermanence of the world! That's a lot going on in the last few decades!

There was a big war between the Odo civilization, which brought bad luck to the solar system, and the Ferro civilization, which tried to imply the earth! And the result of the big war was a defeat for both sides.

Although the Odo civilization avenged the blood feud of 10,000 years ago, its own strength has also lost most of it, and the Ferro civilization has not only lost almost all of its elite vassal civilizations, but its strength has dropped by more than ninety percent.

Sure enough, it's a good reincarnation of heaven!

The exchange of civilizations was from shallow to deep, and after some tentative exchanges between the two sides, the leader of the Blue Horse Consortium, Gula, finally threw out the purpose of this call.

"Mr. Zhou, you know everything about us, and frankly speaking, this universe is far from as beautiful as we imagined! Behind the deep and dazzling, there is always an infinite danger buried, it is like a monster that none of us have ever seen, when you are full of longing to explore the universe, it has already been ambushed in your path, waiting for the opportunity to swallow you! ”

Zhou Chen nodded, and also said: "I agree with Mr. Guluo's statement, there have been a lot of science fiction about the universe on our earth, and countless science fiction works describing the stars and the sea have also been born. There is one saying that I think is very suitable for depicting the current universe and the survival game between civilizations and civilizations! ”

"Oh? I want to hear about it! "Gula is interested.

Zhou Chen said: "The universe we live in is a dark forest, and every civilization is a hunter with a gun, sneaking through the forest like a ghost, gently brushing away the branches that stand in the way, trying not to make a little sound from the footsteps, and even breathing must be careful. ”

"Because he has to be careful, the forest is full of hunters who are just like him, and if he finds another life, there is only one thing he can do: shoot that life and destroy it. In this forest, others are hell, an eternal threat, and any life that reveals its existence will soon be wiped out, because everyone has the same idea, and this is the picture of cosmic civilization. ”

Guru nodded thoughtfully: "Indeed, the highest pursuit of civilization is survival, and any unstable factors that hinder survival must be eliminated!" There is a lack of the most basic trust, so it is the safest thing to destroy the other party! ”

Between civilizations and civilizations, when they meet in strange places, no one knows the purpose of the other, so they always have the worst intentions, and do not hesitate to speculate on others with the worst malice, this is the essence of the problem, in this context, all civilizations fall into a vicious circle, but it is more solid such a logic as "others are evil".

If the Pegasus civilization and other vassal civilizations did not become familiar with each other under the rule of the Ferro civilization, it would be difficult for them to be integrated together, because they simply lacked understanding and trust in each other.

"Dark Forest, I can't imagine that your earth civilization has such a prescient philosopher, who has already understood the basic survival laws of the universe before he even stepped out of his home planet." Gulla said without hesitation.

Zhou Chen smiled and shook his head: "This is nothing, every society is a big environment, and inferences from small things are just comparing hearts to hearts, and constantly considering one's own behavior and the behavior of others under the framework of a set topic." ”

Guru nodded: "But in any case, your earth civilization has such thoughts, which is much better than those other civilizations that go to the universe in a daze, but have infinite reverie about the universe." ”

"There are thousands of civilizations born in the universe, but a considerable number of them have just stepped out of their home planet and ended their exploration when they encountered the first extraterrestrial civilization." As he spoke, as if he felt sorry for those civilizations that died before they could get out of school, Guru couldn't help but sigh.

Zhou Chen smiled bitterly, the civilization of the earth, how could it be that there are a lot of people who have an almost blind vision of the universe!

As early as the time of the earth, human beings released the message of "their own existence" to the universe, trying to attract extraterrestrial civilizations to the earth, just to prove a ridiculous purpose - we are not the only life in the universe.

Fortunately, when everyone is drunk, there are always people who are awake, and there are many people who are awake, and through science fiction, it depicts a cruel picture close to the true state of the universe.

Now that Zhou Chen is the leader of the Earth Fleet, he naturally has to absorb their views and look at this brilliant starry sky with the worst intentions.
