"Do you have anything else to build?" After several hours of inquiry, Sister Xue ended with this sentence. They had already asked the core question, and she wanted to hear what the Prothean had to say about them.

"You've been warned, human. Now that you have the opportunity that no race has ever had in all previous reincarnations, make the most of the remaining time to prepare for the battle, your time is running out. ”

Javik replied, the warning self-evident. After saying that, he fell silent. Sister Xue also stood up and left the room silently, leaving this Proxian to rest alone for a while.

She was a little surprised that the Prosenist didn't have any grand plans or seemingly brilliant strategic advice, but she could understand it when she thought about it.

In Javik's description, the Prosian Empire had previously confirmed the adaptability of the Reapers. The seemingly brilliant strategic plans they had carefully prepared either didn't work or were interrupted before they could be completed.

It is precisely because of this that many of the schemes they have tried are not worth letting this reincarnation person try again. Of course, it's not that the Protheus didn't have any good plans left.

Javik had detailed many of the plans he knew of against the Reapers, with the part of the Optimus Furnace attracting a lot of attention in the command room.

When Hackett outside heard that the ruins on a planet near the home planet of humanity also had a backup blueprint of the weapon, he immediately issued an order for the First Fleet to assemble in the solar system to protect the Martian archives.

Although 30 years have passed, there are still many undeciphered materials in the ruins found by humans on Mars, and the Mars Archive is still a research center for Starlink scientists.

Sister Xue never went back after leaving the room, and as soon as she came out, she was assigned by Hackett to go to the Mars Archives to find and bring back the weapon blueprints safely.

Shen Chao was not assigned any task, because now was the time for him to celebrate, and his clues proved to be extremely effective. The excavated Prothean is also extremely useful.

Without him, God knows when they will be able to dig this Prothean out. Maybe it's when the Reapers invade? Maybe never dug up.

In recognition of his merits, the Star Federation held a large-scale officer cocktail party, and a large number of high-ranking officers currently stationed on the main planet of Eden came to cheer.

These guys are basically the captains of the convoy outside of Eden Primary. There is a younger generation of officers like Shen Chao, and there are also cattle people of the older generation who have participated in the first contact battle.

During the reception, Hackett also rushed to the scene to award him a medal and promote his in-service treatment by the way. The fleet command increased his allowance in the army by more than 10 times.

The treatment of officers has also been changed from 7 for officers with the rank of major to 10 for ordinary generals. That is, from now on, within the Star Alliance. The allowances and benefits he enjoys are only one level lower than that of a senior general like Anderson.

Not only that, but as he proved his immense worth as a ghost, the funds for the activities offered to him by the Star Alliance for the ghost position also increased.

The financial support has increased dozens of times compared with the previous one. Every month, he will be provided with more than 1 million star coins in activity funds, although it is not much different for Shen Chao, who already has other financial resources, but it can help him better disguise his next move.

It is worth noting that although the Star Alliance has given him so many benefits, no one has proposed to give him a promotion to the rank. It's not that Starlink doesn't want to give him a promotion. Rather, it can't.

If the rank is promoted according to the contribution, not only him, but Sister Xue, who saved the Divine Castle, is estimated to have been promoted to general a few months earlier. However, the ghosts, due to their special political status, could not be so "normal" to advance in rank.

During their reign, they were allowed to retain their original ranks, but they could not be promoted on the basis of their original ranks, as has been the practice in parliament for thousands of years. Starlink will not break this tradition either.

After all, Shen Chao's celebration party was just a small episode, and in the past few days since Javik was dug up, the political atmosphere at the top of the galaxy has become unprecedentedly tense.

However, unlike any previous large-scale crisis, this political tension did not bring suspicion and conflict between the various races, but instead brought unprecedented cooperation to the various races.

After receiving the initial information provided by Javik, Shen Chao and the other garrisons and important personnel on Eden Main were transferred to the Arcturus space station.

The expedition team had searched the entire hibernation facility and found no other surviving Protheus, so there was no need to stay here.

The majority of the fleet returned to the Arcturus space station, while Javik continued to be under the protective custody of the Star Federation, and diplomats and representatives of the various tribes withdrew with the fleet to the Arcturus colony.

Due to the constant arrival of important people and technicians from all ethnic groups, a large number of accommodations are required. Therefore, the local government of the Star Alliance implemented a provisional military law in the Arcturus colony.

After some financial compensation, the Star Alliance Navy forcibly relocated all the inhabitants of the largest city in the colony of Arcturus. Hundreds of thousands of residents were all relocated to other nearby cities within a few days.

Tens of thousands of troops were stationed near the outskirts of the city, and technical experts, soldiers, and diplomats of various nationalities were placed in the city and began their work.

Tens of thousands of technologists from all corners of the galaxy were quickly integrated to participate in the dismantling and reverse research of the Collector warship.

Although the overall performance of the Collector battleship is not outstanding. However, its particle beam cannon has been shown to be significantly more effective at destroying kinetic energy barriers than known Mass Effect acceleration weapons.

If it weren't for the fact that the Protheus ran out of time and built too few of these warships, the Reaper might have been defeated by the Protheus in the last reincarnation.

Insiders in the military of all ethnic groups hope to crack its technology as soon as possible and equip their warships with such powerful main guns. So these best technicians from all corners of the galaxy are working overtime.

It is worth noting that these powerful engineers, with the help of engineering mechs and various repair ships, dismantled the 2-kilometer-long Collector battleship into an empty shelf with a keel in just 4 days.

Several chief engineers from various races even said that in just one month, nearly 100 scientific research teams under their leadership could completely crack the secret of the collector's main cannon.

This good news made the military and representatives of the various ethnic governments very happy, and they politicians and soldiers were not idle while the engineers were working hard.

Various meetings were held one after the other. The number of joint meetings of the government agencies of the major races in the past few days has exceeded the combined number of previous years, all discussing issues related to galactic preparedness and the lifting of arms restrictions.

The obvious threat from the Reapers made these high-ranking bigwigs of all races put down their bodies, and they took the threat assessment report given by the military and seriously discussed the possibility of forming a coalition army.

No race thinks it has the power to defeat the Reaper army alone, even if it does have 5 or 10 years to prepare.

The vast industrial systems and economic structures within the galaxy cannot become suitable for war overnight. Nor can any race double the number of its fleet in a few years.

Therefore, such an unprecedented plan as the formation of an "all-galactic united fleet" was proposed. At first, the bigwigs of all races seemed to like the plan, especially the Touareg, the largest of the fleet.

However, after two days of intense discussions, the plan was put on hold for the time being. Because the command of the coalition forces is always not appropriate.

The Touareg commander-in-chief considered him to be the undisputed commander of the fleet, as the Touareg numbered more than one-third of all regular warships of the various clans.

However, the other races disagreed, and none of them wanted to hand over their fleets to others in this crisis, so they still did not negotiate the formation of a galactic alliance in the end.

Thankfully, for the first time, the limit on the number of ships built by each race in the Citadel Convention has been broken. Under the threat of the Reaper, previous restrictive treaties of this kind were moot.

At the meeting, the intention was discussed, and the various clans of the Divine Citadel were no longer limited by the number of dreadnoughts they could build, and the warships of the armies of the various clans could build as many as they wanted in the future. You can build as big as you want.

After negotiating these issues of principle, the negotiations finally came to an end, seven days after Javik woke up.

During this period, Shen Chao also attended many meetings of high-ranking officers, and sat with the best military talents of other races to discuss the overall strategy against the Reapers.

I have to say that there are powerful people in all kinds of clans, let's just say that these meetings that Shen Chao participated in, a room was almost full of generals, and each of them was a powerful team battle commander, such as Admiral Hackett, there were several strongmen at that level.

He couldn't interject at all when these bigwigs discussed strategy and tactics, and his far faster thinking speed could barely keep up with the thoughts of these gods in front of him, and he usually reacted after the whole mock battle was completed, and sighed: "Oh, I see, what a wonderful tactic......"

It was precisely because of this that in order to have more contact with these great gods in order to improve his warship command level, he postponed the scheduled follow-up plan for a few days, and waited until the first version of the overall strategy was formulated by these great gods before he decided to start acting.

The city hall has been the main meeting place for the Citadel Council and representatives of all ethnic groups these days, and Shen Chao knows that the meeting here has also come to an end. So, here he waits patiently for a conference member.

There is another obstacle to his freedom of movement that needs to be removed, and here is someone who can help him do it. (To be continued.) )
