On weekdays, in this small, seemingly ordinary planetary system, there would only be one intelligent race, Jace. And now, the front line has been pushed very close, and the Combined Fleet of the Citadel is concentrating its forces on breaking in this direction.

If it weren't for Jace's sudden retreat, which made the command of the Combined Fleet more vigilant, suspecting that Jace had set up an ambush zone in the nearby system, the Combined Fleet would probably have reached this extremely historic planetary system at this time.

At this time, the planetary system where Shen Chao and the others are located is the core of the Jace Control Star Region of the cross-sectional star region, and more than half of the Jace agents are stored here. In order to pick up all Jace as soon as possible and leave here, Shen Chao began to urge the crew to nervously carry out various system checks and preparations as soon as he arrived here.

Due to the fact that the Long Night carried out its first mission almost half a year earlier than expected, the training of the personnel who were specially preparing for this test ship was also insufficient, and many of the operators were temporarily transferred, so that the crew team formed temporarily could not immediately reach the proficiency of the several ships that Shen Chao had commanded before.

There are two main reasons why Shen Chao is in a hurry to urge the crew. First, the strategic position of this planetary system is very important in a military sense. As the heartland of Jace, once the system is conquered, Jace will lose half of its war potential.

This remarkable fact could never be ignored by the Combined Fleet of the Citadel, and this military reason alone was enough to place this system on the list of priority targets for the Combined Fleet of the Citadel in this genocide.

But in a political sense, the status of this inconspicuous planetary system is actually more important, so important that even if there are no military objectives, the Combined Fleet will advance here as quickly as possible and occupy the entire system.

This is so because this planetary system "just happens" to be the home planet of Jace and Quarians. In this planetary system full of history, the Quarians created an intelligent servant to replace their labor: Jace hundreds of years ago, and used their mechanical minions to quickly become a first-class and powerful race in the galaxy.

It's also in this galaxy. The evolution of the networked Jastoon guò at high speed finally led to the question "What is the meaning of my zài?" Such a question with a strong sense of self and intimidated its own creator, so it was hunted by its own creator, the Quarians, for no reason.

After that, in order to survive, Jace rebelled against his creator who hunted him for no reason. and eventually drove the quarians out of the cross-section. Now, with the Quarians returning home with half the galaxy's military forces, Jace is once again faced with an unprecedented existential crisis and a difficult choice.

In a previous existential crisis, Jace chose to rebel against his creator, because at the time, it was the only option for them to survive. And this time, Jace's choice is still related to their creator.

It is known that before this latest war against us. Jace and his creator, the Quarians, have been at war for a long time. The conflict between the two sides has lasted for centuries, and the accumulation of old and new grievances is simply too great to count.

It stands to reason that such a deep level of racial hatred is enough to kill these two races until they are completely exterminated. However, the truth is much stranger than one might think.

There is another very important fact that few people know other than Jace. The idea is that Jace, as a group, still longs for peace with their Creator, the Quarians, and even wants to continue to serve their Creator after peace because it brings them happiness.

What do you think. Sounds incredible, right? But there's nothing incomprehensible about it in Jace's logic. As a mechanical race created by the Quarians. Ever since the birth of the original Jace Intelligence, their core code has a core precept of serving the Quarians wholeheartedly.

After tens of thousands of generations of code updates, this core precept is still in the memory of each Jace Smart's smart core. Jace had the option to delete or modify this part of the code, but for some reason, they never did.

If I had to describe what this core precept meant to Jace, it would have to be brought into the human mind. Like many human instincts. This vow would drive all Jace to think and even do things that their sanity did not necessarily approve of.

Human instincts include the desire to survive, the desire to court, self-realization, and other basic instincts, and the same is true of Jace's instincts, but the corresponding part of their "courtship instincts" is bound to the Quarians.

This makes them reluctant to be hostile to the Quarians at the level of their core desires. Of course, in addition to this lower instinct, Jace has also evolved a higher level of rational thinking to support their complex behavior. That's why they don't hesitate to take up arms and attack their favorite quarians when their survival is in danger.

After centuries of bloodshed, the Quarians had long forgotten about Jace's instinctive fondness for his race, but Jace hadn't forgotten about it. After learning that their race would be taken to a new universe free of the threat of the Reapers, they immediately thought about the safety of the Quarians who were fighting against them!

In order to fully express the wishes of his race and strive for a favorable living condition for his creator race, Jace's collective wisdom even sent a legion to raise their voices and rushed over to discuss this issue directly with Shen Chao.

Of course, the legion was only brought to Shen Chao after convincing Sister Xue, and outside, the formation integration of the Jace fleet was still slowly progressing, and it was expected that it would take half an hour before departure, which gave them time to meet.

The dense formation of ships is a technical task, even for a race like Jace that has a groupthink and can operate an entire fleet as a single person. Docking tens of thousands of warships in a spherical area with a diameter of several hundred kilometers requires a lot of coordination and extremely precise maneuvering.

In the process of this arrangement, Shen Chao took a little time to meet with the legion, he thought that the legion came to discuss with him the details of the placement after Jace arrived at the new plane, but he didn't expect the other party to raise a question that he had never thought of as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Speaker, and we know that what we're asking may be excessive, but we have to ask, do you have any plans to evacuate the other races?" Especially our Creator ......" As soon as the legion said this, Shen Chao on the opposite side fell into a short period of sluggishness.

As far as he knew, the Citadel Combined Fleet, which was now attacking Jace, contained the main fleet of Quarians. Their ships were not as good as the other races, but the war was largely fought for the loss of their ancestors, so the Quarians actually fought very fiercely on the battlefield.

Under such circumstances, any "normal" intelligent race standing in the position where the Jaces are being beaten now will have great indignation, and even have the idea of exterminating the present enemies in the future. But Jace would actually have the leisure to care about the safety of his enemies under such circumstances, which made Shen Chao surprised and didn't know how to feel.

Fortunately, under the explanation of the legion, he quickly understood Jace's deep feelings about the Quarians, and was shocked by Jace's peculiar "loyalty"! That's right, Jace did have been in constant conflict with the Quarians over the past few hundred years, but each time the Quarians were trying to regain lost territory, and they were finally beaten back by Jace.

From the Quarians' point of view, they are trying to reclaim their ancestral homeland, and from Jace's point of view, they are only defending themselves. Both sides see themselves as righteous, and it is precisely because of this ideological orientation that a simple misunderstanding between them can turn into a war that will last for hundreds of years.

Shen Chao was very touched after learning about Jace's request again, but he simply gave a negative answer. Compared to Jace, who is straightforward and can take responsibility for his entire actions as a whole, although the quarians also have strong construction ability and a fairly high degree of organization, it is still not a viable option for the Plane Council to recruit quarians as allies to assist them in the development of the Xenoplane.

The Temporal Council has discovered thousands of different planes so far, and each of these worlds is populated with a large number of intelligent races, but only a handful of them are accepted.

If it weren't for the war waged by the Citadel Combined Fleet that created this very special opportunity, Shen Chao wouldn't even agree to the plan to recruit Jace. After all, with enough time, the existing population of the Space-Time Council will be able to solve all the construction problems.

After receiving Shen Chao's direct refusal, the Legion and the Jace Swarm Intelligence it represented were not too surprised, they didn't really expect Shen Chao to take the Quarians to safety, and for this reason, they were just silently worried about the future of their creators, the Quarians.

Everyone knows that the Reaper is returning to the galaxy step by step, and when the Reaper arrives, a cruel and long war seems inevitable. The mighty Protheus had resisted for more than a hundred years, and this reincarnation of wars could only be more brutal whether they were won or not.

When the time comes, their creators, the Quarians, may be wiped out by the Reapers after a terrible war, just like the short-lived civilizations in countless reincarnations throughout history.

Jace didn't think that the "Space-Time Council" in front of him had the ability to stop this qiē, because if Shen Chao could really represent that much power, they wouldn't need to be taken to other planes by the other party to relocate. (To be continued......)
