Although he was a little annoyed that he had heard too many 'I don't know' during this conversation, the leader didn't really plan to do anything to this subordinate, so he chose to reveal it after expressing his anger slightly, but its 'slightly' might have been a bit heavy for the octopus.

"There's no way to crack their genetic code, and there's no way to make a fuss about cell proliferation, so you can't use external means to breed them, right?"

The false silence was maintained for a moment amid the constant reverberation of the plasma ocean, until he thought the octopus had tasted enough of the fear, and the leader resumed the conversation again,

"Even so, it actually made you make the judgment of 'having the potential to be a soldier'? I guess there's something I don't know? ”

"I don't doubt your stellarity, but I do have some shallow discoveries that I want to report back to you."

"Less nonsense, get straight to the point."

"Yes. As a so-called 'self-reproducing biological weapon', human beings can reproduce asexually as long as they have sufficient material supplies;"

"Although there are only three children at a time, from the embryonic stage to the 'juvenile stage' in their mouths, they can reach ten universal days at the earliest, with the supply of a large number of materials;"

"In the future, to reach the 'sub-adulthood', that is, the stage we are in now, it is also enough to have three universal years at the earliest, when the materials are abundant;"

The octopus monster waved its tentacles as hard as it could, expressing its meaning as fast as possible, so as not to make the leader angry with it because the information efficiency was too slow.

"They are endowed with precocious characteristics and are very sensitive to 'operational' knowledge, and have a strong learning acceptance in this regard;"

"We've tried to make it even a fifteen-day-old young human learn how to control a mech and pilot a small spaceship after only a short period of training;"

"Although there is no 0 basic assessment for adolescence and sub-adulthood, the results of memory reading also show that they are capable of most war needs, and they are truly mature biological weapons, even better than those in the hands of the Galactic Council;"

"Moreover, they are also written into their genes to obey the forces they are loyal to, and they will not take the initiative to betray the forces they are loyal to, coupled with the weakness of the 'main suzerain' in mind control technology, our existing means should be enough to tame them."

~~~~~~~~~~~

After an initial period of darkness in which people were not treated as human beings, the landlord forces inexplicably became merciful one day, and human beings were no longer imprisoned in a dungeon-like environment, but were given a certain degree of freedom and were assigned an area in the inner layer of the barrier as a station.

Later, 'English' was also recorded in the translator, allowing humans to understand and apply the lingua franca of the river system through a machine that needed to be hung on the ear.

Perhaps in order to take care of the human emotions, the liaison assigned to the humans by the group was a one-eyed humanoid, and although the big black hole eyes were still a little long, the well-informed humans quickly adapted to it.

On this day, for the first time, humans who had just escaped from suffering followed the cyclops to the station, and on the way, they listened to it explain the precautions very roughly, probably where not to go, where not to see, and to be sure to go as soon as possible when receiving a request to cooperate with the experiment, etc.

As they nodded in response, the one-eyed man continued to emphasize the precautions,

"In the future, we will need to use the universal unit of the galaxy, whether it is time or weight, etc., understand? You are just a group of backward races whose home planet has been destroyed, and you should be grateful to Dade for receiving the baptism of advanced civilization, understand? ”

From this very down-to-earth translation, the humans clearly felt the superiority in its words, even if they did not know that the one-eyed mother civilization was only a surface race, and it was only a slave who had been sold there in the first place, but it did not prevent a little anger from rising in their hearts.

"Hmph, advanced civilization? Just a bunch of strong living in the shadows"

"Ronaldo, shut up!"

The leader of the national character face immediately snorted, interrupted his subordinates in time, and immediately turned his head and nodded to the one-eyed monster and said,

"We understand that the group has given humanity a new life, and we will be grateful for it and will not hesitate to die."

I don't know what the translator translated this passage into, but the sudden anger of the one-eyed monster subsided, and there may be other unknown factors at work.

But in any case, except for a moment when it stared at the muttering human for a moment with its large dark eyes, it turned its head and continued on its way after uttering a syllable that represented a cold snort, except that it did not say a word along the way.

So, the middle-aged leader glared at his subordinates who were talking nonsense with anger, and hurriedly led more than 100 humans to follow suit.

Perhaps because carbon-based life is the mainstream of the universe, most of the areas above and below the barrier are similar to the Earth's atmospheric environment, and the difference in gravity and air pressure is not difficult for humans to adapt to biological weapons.

Therefore, at this moment, the human beings, who are in an absolutely inferior position in terms of 'power', can also suppress the impatience of not being able to jump dozens of meters, and continue to move forward with the one-eyed creature in front of them, which is actually very fragile.

After a few moments of progress through the layers of passages, and a little more through the high-speed traffic corridors within the barriers, they finally came to the station to which they had been assigned.

Although it is not too large, the Manchu Communist Party only has a share of about 100,000 square meters, but it has been transformed by the landlord forces according to their preferences, making it the most livable environment for human beings today.

Although they can adapt to high temperature and high pressure, and have a high resistance to low temperature and low pressure, as intelligent beings, they must still have requirements at the level of 'psychological comfort', so they will instinctively pursue a body feeling similar to that of the mother planet of the earth;

However, since the pursuit is 'somatosensory', it will no longer maintain the 1-to-1 equivalent of the earth in terms of gravity and air pressure, but the second hometown of the cannon fodder era, 'Vegeta', is more in line with the current needs;

Therefore, the generous landlord forces deliberately reproduced the gravity and pressure environment of the planet 20 times that of the earth in accordance with human memory, and specially created a suitable temperature of 26 degrees Celsius compared to the earth's measurement method.

"Wow! These aliens. Aliens are so generous, and it's very comfortable here! ”

After seeing off the liaison, the human finally relaxed slightly, and felt the new environment and the hemispherical dwellings in front of him, and let out a little happy sigh for the first time in a long time.

"Humph! The generosity of shit can't even match a single hair of our Frieza legion, and it seems that they are just a bunch of bandits living in the shadows. ”

The voice of dissatisfaction naturally still exists, and the human who 'disregards the overall situation' said in a disdainful tone,

"Hmph, I think the Supreme Leader liked to exterminate this kind of moth the most, if it wasn't for the death of His Excellency Frieza in the sneak attack of the Reaper army, how would we end up like this?"

"Okay Ronaldo, you just don't have to say a word. Everyone is uncomfortable, but what can be done now? I can only take one step at a time. ”

Sighing and patting Ronaldo's shoulder gently, the middle-aged man with a Chinese character face pointed to the instrument on his ear that looked like a detector of the Legion's combat power, and in fact, it was indeed the translator that was imitated in that appearance and admonished,

"You have to be careful with what you say and do, who knows if this thing has a listening function or not?"

During the conversation, more than 100 humans who had entered the largest hemispherical building in the center of the station sat down around the circular table and looked at the man with a calm face in the national character, and began to wait for the squad leader to speak first according to the previous military habits.

"Huh" After a long sigh of relief, the man with a calm face in the national character also lived up to expectations and said, "The top priority is to integrate intelligence first, have you gained anything in these days?" ”

Hearing this, everyone could only shake their heads in helplessness, they had just gotten the translator and escaped the fate of being a guinea pig in the laboratory, how could there be a 'intelligence harvest' at all?

And when there was a little hesitation in this space, the surveillance operation carried out in the inexplicable area on the other side of the base had actually been carried out in real time

"Yes chiefs, they didn't show much obedience."

"Yes, the fluctuations of the mind detection are also in line with expectations, and the deeper hidden emotions are also very real"

"Okay. Okay understand yes, I'll do exactly what you tell me to do. ”

Turning off the quantum communicator in his hand, the Minister of Supervision, who was covered in blue and gold carapaces, commanded to the lower-level subordinates beside him,

"To start the next plan, and to terminate them as soon as possible after they have enough to give birth to their own division limit, we need to re-cultivate a batch of genetic protogens with no memories of the past."

"Yes, sir!"

In the same way, at the time when this secret shuffle plan was formulated, the elders of the Republic who were in different regions and maintained different physical states in the range of 100-850 light years away were also conducting targeted consultations over a very wide area.

~~~~~~~~~

"Let's summarize the information first, although the harvest is not very abundant under the constraints of various practical reasons, it is enough for us to have a basic understanding of the general environment."

In the Void, Nesta is narrating to all the participants of the National Assembly based on the results of his own thread clone reconnaissance,

"The great river system in which we live is governed by a body called the 'River System Council', which basically presides over all the open order in the river system, and is divided into 2 auditoriums, 6 permanent seats, an unknown number of weighted seats, and an unknown number of participating seats;"

"In the rumors, the auditorium seems to be representatives of super extra-line civilizations with the ability to sail across river systems, and it is said that they are only responsible for conveying the will of their own civilization and handling commercial and trade matters, and will not interfere in the affairs of order in their own river system;"

"Of course, this is only what the overt intelligence shows, and the truth is not known for the time being, at least, I myself have a hard time believing in the 'non-intervention' point."

The council remained silent, and everyone listened intently to Nesta's report, and the latter continued to speak in this listening,

"Then there are 6 permanent seats, four of which are the most powerful civilizations in the river system, each of them independently occupies 2 general galaxy clusters, and the subsidiary forces are more than ten general star clusters in the surrounding area, directly or indirectly controlling nearly 14% of the star field in the large river system;"

"And the rest of the standing seat is occupied by two single beings"

'Boom! ’

Eventually, when Nesta uttered the phrase 'two individuals', the council could no longer maintain the previous order, and almost all the elves were amazed by it.

Because strong is strong, weak is weak, and the power of technology and the collective is also vividly expressed in the forces controlled by the republic.

It is precisely because of this experience that they are shocked and puzzled by the information they have heard at this time, and the elves cannot figure out what kind of life intensity it is, so that they can occupy a permanent seat in the river system governance organization with the unit of 'civilization'.

'Smack! ’

A crisp snap of his fingers resounded throughout the audience, and Eshara used his authority to force all the participants to calm their thoughts, and Nesta continued to elaborate,

"The forces we infiltrate have the attributes of 'criminal groups', so their networks are basically isolated from the outside, and the information transmission methods between the various bases of the forces cannot be analyzed for the time being due to different technical routes;"

"So although I am also curious about the owners of these two single seats, what kind of life strength and morphological attributes they have, but the more specific situation is not known to us;"

"I only saw a rough outline of my ability through rumors."

"One of them is called a 'phenomenon', which has occupied a very large area of matter in the river system hundreds of thousands of years ago, and turned it into a forbidden area isolated from the outside world;"

"That's right, its territory is even in our deep diving field of view, a magnificent nebula 70,000 light-years away, and what we see is what its territory looked like 70,000 years ago;"

"It is said that, apart from the free passage of the delegates to the auditorium, even the civilization of the Standing Table was not allowed to enter its territory, and it seems that in the long years before the establishment of the Council, it was at war with the rest of the present Standing Members;"

"The truth of this battle is unknown, and the outcome is unknown, but at least it still occupies it safely, and after the establishment of the council, it has become one of the permanent representatives, and it must be a very powerful special. Organisms? ”

"The other monomer is called 'being', but its territory is unknown, its overall form is unknown, and it is only known that it participates in the council through a beam of condensed light."

"As for its former achievements, the rumors have left only such a widely circulated record."

"A devastating beam of light that pierced the heavens and the earth struck the star field of the capital of the Celar civilization from nowhere, and shrouded it for ten universal sidereal days;"

"When its glory ends, all conventional matter, including hundreds of stars and the surrounding dust, disappears, leaving behind the desolate miracle known as the Great Hollow of the Serral."

"This sentence alone is all we know at the moment, and it seems to have happened in the years before the Council was formed, and the 'Great Hollow of the Serral' is in our blind spot because of the obstruction of the central belt of the river system;"

"In addition, the intelligent race to which this civilization belongs is an inherently powerful plasma life conceived in the stars, but only in the millennium after the disappearance of its capital star field, its remnants have been eaten up by the surrounding civilizations, and the rest are surviving as interstellar outcasts, criminals in the shadows, and slaves for fun;"

"But since the establishment of the Council, the enslavement of intelligent life has been forbidden by the laws of the Great River, and nowadays, at least on the surface, it is impossible to buy the slaves of civilized races, but from the forces that we are lurking in today, the enslavement of civilized races, and even worse, is still being carried out in secret."

"Besides, the several weighted seats, they seem to be the overlords of their respective major galaxy clusters, but they seem to have failed to achieve complete control due to strength or rule restrictions, and they seem to have indirect influence on the rest of the surrounding cluster clusters only through commerce and other means;"

"And whether it is them, or the six permanent civilizations or monomers mentioned above, it seems that they have not expanded their actual control area for countless years, and they are only cultivating their own one-third of an acre;

"Even though their territory is so vast that the 'Explorer' profession is still needed today, this situation still makes me feel a little out of place."

"But there is also a legend that the Council was formed when the representatives of the parties jointly signed the 'Great River Treaty', which was also necessary for subsequent accessors to be recognized;"

"If the rumors are true, then perhaps this treaty will be associated with the expansion of civilizational power, but we still need to continue to explore the specific content of it."

"As for the number of 'seats' in the future, we don't know what the exact number will be, but it should at least be hundreds or thousands?"

"It's a little strange that some civilizations seem to have earned their seats when they didn't even get out of their home planet, and some of them were even in the 'Age of Sharp Metal Weapons', 'Age of Chemical Energy Weapons', and 'Age of Multinational Warfare on the Surface' until the eve of joining;"

"But even so, they have gained a place in civilization due to the discovery of 'individual explorers' and 'group explorers', and in a short period of time they have jumped to the era of inner star systems, and even the era of secondary star clusters, and the individuals or groups that have discovered have received seemingly rich material rewards."

"In such cases, some civilizations have replaced their language with the lingua franca of the river system, or other types of languages that are in harmony with their own modes of communication, and some civilizations seem to be still using their original language;"

"And the cultural and technical aspects are almost the same, some maintain the characteristics of the deletion, some retain the original ecology, and some are completely transformed;"

"We don't know the proportion or the causes of this phenomenon because we have very little information at our disposal, but even from the very phenomenon itself, the Council does not seem to care about 'cultural diversity' and 'technological uniqueness,' but at the same time it does not impose a mandate on the path that these civilizations will take from then on."

"What can be known now is that this organization does not seem to limit the civilization level of those who join, and at best it is 'inclusive', and if it is bad, it is 'those who come will not be refused'."

"It seems to be the same with the Republic, where if we choose to be in a very public presence in the Great River System, we will be able to gain a seat on the Council, an independent internal government, and the existing areas of de facto control, and even further afield, will seem to be monopolized."

"And at least from the analysis of the existing cases, it seems that the accessioners will also enjoy the right to complete peace with themselves and him, without fear of the threat of force from a powerful civilization."

"However, our channel of knowledge is a criminal group after all, so we have also seen records of 'unregistered civilizations found and cultivated', and the specific location is buried deeply, and may not even be recorded in the internal network of the base."

"And if we only consider the obstacles of the 'group', they actually do not have the ability to block the way to apply, and even the council bounty on their heads can become our food."

"But at the same time, it is still unclear how much of the area will become our exclusive development zone, whether it will be restricted by the 'treaty', to what extent it will be subject to such restrictions, and to what extent."

"Therefore, as for whether to join the council or not, and join the Great River Civilization Circle to become a member of its surface, it may be necessary to make a more rational and prudent judgment based on more information."

~~~~~~~

At this point, Nesta's long speech, which had been rare in hundreds of years, has finally come to an end

From the information available, it seems that the river system in which they live is a very peaceful territory, and the Council seems to be a somewhat overly fraternal authority;

Among them, there are super extra-civilizations that uphold the 'non-intervention policy', there are powerful civilizations of the local river system that are harmless like 'sheep in wolf's clothing', and there are also many civilizational forces at different stages of development.

As long as the republic joins it, it will have the opportunity to develop under the shadow of peace, and it will have what seems to be plenty of room for development in hundreds of years, and all it takes is to walk through and apply

But the questions he raised should not be ignored, and now he may be able to bury his head in the blind spot, after all, the river system is so large that even the hegemon-level civilization seems to have failed to develop the jurisdiction;

Therefore, if the republic is determined not to be born, it is very likely that it will continue to live for a considerable period of time, until it is too large to hide, or until it reaches the prosperous part of the river system.

If they choose to join the Council, they may be sending the reins to the Overseer, which may be safer, but they will also face many restrictions.
