Chapter 545: War Reparations

ps:

There was a power outage from 6 or 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., and it was too late to send a new chapter. There aren't many more chapters in the future. If there are no accidents, the book will be completed within two days today and tomorrow.

At Wu Ge's repeated insistence, the negotiations were temporarily suspended. At the end of the day, he sent a small boat to take Wu Ge to meet the three ancestors first.

Although he had been mentally prepared, when he saw the three ancestors, Wu Ge was still shocked and sour: the three ancestors sat cross-legged and formed a triangle, and they had no breath. Chen Tuan, who was sitting in the front, and the old ancestor with the awkward name clasped their hands together and raised them upward, pointing straight to the earth, while the old ancestor who was sitting behind them put his hands on their shoulders...... Obviously, the three ancestors consumed all their aura in order to deliver the final blow that destroyed the Dalan Star Mothership.

"I'm sorry that something like this happened. But in war, this is inevitable. ”

When the bodies of the three ancestors were transported back to the mothership, Yu Mo said apologetically.

Wu Ge glanced at Yu Mo.

"The three ancestors have a deep cultivation, and they won't die so easily...... They are soaring. ”

He said with a grim face.

"I've heard of it, but it seems very difficult for me to understand. ”

The end of the day sighed.

Although Wu Ge's tone was firm, there was no spectrum in his heart at all: theoretically, the second ascension refers to the consciousness completely separated from the physical body under the protection of the aura. And the three ancestors have exhausted their aura, I'm afraid ......

What is the cultivation behavior? The three ancestors have already cultivated to such a height, and I am afraid that they are only one line away from the second ascension. At such a time, they did not hesitate to choose to exhaust their lifelong cultivation and let everything freeze with their skins. Once the thousand-year practice is in vain. When they made such a decision, did they ever regret and waver?

Wu Ge and Alex make contact with Earth. Informed about everything that happened. After listening to Earth's opinion, negotiations with the end of the day were resumed.

Answer: The Lan Xingren are willing to withdraw their troops unconditionally, which is already a rare good ending for the earth after paying sacrifices. In this case, it is nothing more than a question of "war reparations" - of course. There is also the matter of finding ways to establish contact with the planet Talan, and then join the Pan-Galactic Interstellar Alliance. This is an irresistible temptation for the planet, much more important than the issue of "reparations". It must be firmly grasped.

And the reason why the people of the Taran Star decided to withdraw from the army, and they had to negotiate with the earthlings "in one more move", in fact, was that they were unwilling to give up the earth to the Chidan people. They also want to have some kind of good relationship with the people of the earth. In this way, after the Earth joins the Interstellar Alliance in the future, they will have one more ally.

"Why can't we join the Interstellar Alliance now?"

Wu Ge asked with some dissatisfaction.

"Joining the alliance is conditional. You should be at least rudimentary. "Besides, you should at least form a coalition government, right? We can't deal with more than a hundred political entities on Earth at the same time." ”

"But we have the United Nations?"

The end grinned, looking like he was smiling.

"I'm afraid you don't believe that that organization really has any authority, right?"

He said.

"Well, we'll talk about that later. Wu Ge sighed and said. Of course, he also knows that the Earth is now up to a coalition government that can truly exercise its functions effectively. The road is still long.

"Then, what level of primary civilization do you want to reach?"

"There are many conditions that a primary civilization requires. I can give you a copy of the relevant documents later. But to put it simply...... At least you have to be able to go to the headquarters of the Star Alliance on your own. ”

"How far is HQ from here?"

"In your language, about 400 light years. ”

400 light-years? With Earth's technology, this distance is really nothing in terms of detection, but if you want to send people there......

"Don't be discouraged. Actually, with your current level of technology. If a coalition government can be formed to reduce internal friction, it will not be difficult to achieve such a level of technology. ”

Seeing Wu Ge's depressed expression, Yu Mo comforted.

"Yes. That's really the biggest problem we face right now. ”

Wu Ge said expressionlessly.

"Uh," said Mo for fear of stabbing Wu Ge's pride, "Actually, these things are also relative. After all, you can't expand beyond the planet you live on right now, and it's normal for you to have internal strife. At the very least, this will bring competition and push you to develop faster. In fact, we're surprised that you've been able to get to where you are now in twenty interstellar years - knowing that you all have nuclear bombs now. ”

"Don't comfort me. ”

Wu Ge smiled bitterly.

"I'm telling you the truth, one of the reasons we made the hasty decision to attack you is that you're moving too fast. "On the other hand, although we have a unified government and no fierce internal competition, we have also lost our vitality. The pace of technological development has become extremely slow, and the quality of products has ...... Take our warship as an example, in just a few interstellar years, the same problem will occur twice, and in the same place. ”

It sounded like he was quite annoyed by the question.

Wu Ge: "Uh...... What's the problem?"

"One of our warships had a rupture in the transport pipe of liquid radioactive material, which almost destroyed the entire battleship. ”

Liquid radioactive material transport tube? I thought it was cryonics.

Wu Ge decided not to say anything, and let Xuan Mo be confused for the rest of his life.

A slightly mechanical voice sounded in the conference room, and Su Mo seemed to be arguing with this voice for a few words, and the argument ended with a firm rebuke from Su Su.

"Can't you help me with the progress of civilization?"

When the end of the Xuan Dynasty calmed down, Wu Ge mentioned it euphemistically.

"I'm afraid this can't really be done. "I've said a few times that there is a Law on the Prevention of the Spread of Sensitive Technologies in the Alliance. And we emphasize the diversity of civilizations. If you had developed under our guidance, you would have lost your own identity. ”

"A little help doesn't affect our uniqueness...... Think of it as war reparations for us. ”

Wu Ge smiled and continued to probe.

This joke touched the sore spot at the end of the curtain. Originally, he felt ashamed of the loss of troops on this expedition, and not admitting the issue of compensation was also the bottom line that Lan Xing gave him.

"As I said, we are not defeated. So the question of compensation does not exist. ”

He said in a tough tone.

"But our losses are objective. ”

Wu Ge's tone also became very cold.

Yu Mo was stunned for a moment.

"I'll admit it. Truth be told, I don't want to attack you. He said a little reluctantly, "I don't want to cheat." But with our side in the hands of the initiative, we want to talk about compensation......"

"You have the initiative?" Wu Ge said, squinting his eyes, "If it weren't for the fact that you received orders from your home planet to retreat, what awaited you would be absolutely annihilated." ”

"This is ridiculous!" exclaimed the Mo, "I admit that you have done a great job in the previous battles and have caused us a great loss. But after we changed tactics, you were completely helpless against us......"

"Helpless?" Wu Ge sneered, "How do you think your warship's radioactive material transport pipe was broken?"

His expression froze.

"Is there a translucent energy delivery tube next to your radioactive material delivery tube?"

Wu Ge confidently continued to ask.

......

"Why do you know?"

Alex asked, as good at cooperating as in a comedy.

"Because I broke that pipe...... I also know that it was that warship that attacked Earth about four hundred years ago. ”

Wu Ge said confidently.

Before he could speak, a cheerful voice with a slight mechanical voice sounded in the conference room:

"Dear Earth guest, may I ask for your communication method?"

Wu Ge????

"Our products have always been of high quality, safe and reliable. The voice continued, "A problem like the rupture of a pipe for radioactive material will never arise. If you can cooperate with us to prove that the two ruptures of the pipes were caused by your attack, we will provide you with ......"

"Enough, shut up!"

The end of the day shouted irritably.

"I'll get back to you separately. ”

The system whispered hastily, then fell silent again.
