Chapter 537: Chapter 534: Arriving at the Destination
Sure enough, the wild beast hopped forward, sticking out its tongue, wanting to play with Zhang Yuan.
Momo Luo liked the “Pu Pu Grass” cultivated by humans a lot—the sweet and sour fruit was an irresistible delicacy for them. On another level, this large dog-like creature even altered the diplomatic relations between humans and the Tos Civilization.
As long as people beca familiar with this dog breed, they naturally beca familiar with the Tos People as well.
A doll fish lay on it and said sothing, causing this Momo Luo to imdiately stand up, curl its paws, and let out a loud roar, “Varajica!”
It ant “hello.”
Zhang Yuan felt it was quite comical and couldn’t help but recall a phrase— “colluding with wolves,” no, it was “colluding with fish!”
He hurriedly replied, “Varajica!”
“Awooo!” This wolf-dog appeared very excited, wanting to leap at Zhang Yuan to play, but then it seed to rember sothing and stopped abruptly.
According to so theories, civilizations with diverse race companionship are ideologically softer from a consciousness perspective.
“Companionship” is distinct from so-called pets.
Are humans and dogs, cats companion species?
In reality, they are not; there are class divisions.
Humans are the masters of dogs and cats. Even if there are so-called dog slaves or cat slaves, it is rely a social phenonon and does not change the true essence. Lacking dogs and cats, could humans not survive? They would.
Humans have a class system in their relationships with various animals – cattle, horses, pigs, sheep, a relationship of enslavent.
Thus, humans do not have so-called companion species.
However, the relationship between the Tos People and “Momo Luo” is not one of enslavent; the hierarchy is ambiguous, and thousands of years of integration and interdependence have ford a unique culture. “Momo Luo” also has its own language and their small societies, and sotis they even go out for group gatherings.
This is sothing hard for humans to imagine.
This unique form of civilization has caused the Tos Civilization’s ideology to lean left, with strong assimilative capacities, lacking ethnic hatreds, and the effort it took to unify their planet was far less than what humans know, marking a superiority in this kind of civilizational form.
Don’t be fooled by the large doll fishes’ cold tone; if they accepted sothing’s existence, they couldn’t beco unforgiving like humans do.
To speak bluntly, humans are indeed creatures that can turn unforgiving, borne from harsh environnts, and so, for the sake of interests, are able to slaughter the old cattle that have plowed their family’s fields for a lifeti; their morality only improved as their economy did.
But the Tos People can not do such things. Their emotional fluctuations are small, and their moral standard systems and laws are much stricter than humans’, yet every Tos person is content with their lives; they do not see their lifestyle as unfavorable.
This also shows that the Tos People are culturally rigid or, to put it positively, once they recognize a cause, they adhere to it consistently. Everyone behaves properly, sticking to a job until death. On the downside, outdated matters are phased out slowly…
This is both a good and bad thing!
“Mr. Zhang Yuan, hello… I truly wish to see what my partner looks like!”
“Awooo!”
The Tos person in front of him was an optical perception scientist, who had interacted with Zhang Yuan frequently over the past hundred years. What they most desired was to have proper optical perception, even if it was only black and white vision.
However, this matter was truly difficult, and even if humans were willing to offer all their knowledge to help them, the challenge was daunting.
This wasn’t an issue that could be solved by a pair of biomitic eyes; it was the hard creation of void creation because their brains originally lacked this component!
Zhang Yuan greeted the scientist politely, saying, “You will surely have your wish fulfilled, there will be many more opportunities for cooperation in the future…”
“Friends from New Human Civilization, this way, please.”
“Please.”
Everyone entered a circular conference room.
This journey, soon reaching its final destination, required slowing down the Planet Fortress’s speed, necessitating a cooperation eting between both parties.
Zhang Yuan found his seat and began reviewing the materials at hand. The Tos People’s seats were very peculiar, resembling Japanese tatami mats. Since they lacked eyes, they did not require a “field of vision,” and simply lying down on the floor sufficed.
However, to accommodate their guests, the seats for humans were custom-designed.
Captain Ke from the New Human Side took the lead, saying, “Hello, everyone. In three days, we will reach our designated destination. The speed of the Planet Fortress has now reduced to 5% of light speed, allowing us to clearly observe the external conditions.”
“The detailed astronomical configuration of this binary star system is crucial to our cooperation.”
The latest astronomical report was displayed on the screen.
In front of them, besides a large screen, there was also a blackboard-like object emitting a magnetic field that allowed the Tos People to perceive it.
At the sa ti, all materials had already been distributed to each attendee’s personal computer.
Zhang Yuan frowned deeply as he read…
When he saw that scientists, after calculating, found that it would take another 109,000 years for two neutron stars to collide, a dangling heart finally relaxed.
The worst scenario was removed!
What people feared the most was imminent collision before they could do anything. If such a scenario occurred, they could only return dejectedly to the trade market aboard the War Star.
It had been negotiated beforehand with the trade market; returning on this ride wouldn’t cost them…
Overall, eliminating this possibility was definitely a good thing.
The second news, no Cosmic Strings nearby.
Unbelievably, there were no Cosmic Strings within fifty light years nearby.
Zhang Yuan felt a chill in his heart—it was a huge piece of bad news!
The absence of Cosmic Strings ant that this place was a true “isolated island.” Once humans left this rented Planet Fortress, they had either to develop their own Curvature Technology to fly out or, using kinetic propulsion, spend thousands of years to slowly “crawl out” to a place with Cosmic Strings.
The rental ti for the trade market’s Planet Fortress was 102.46 years, precise to the hour, with each exceeding hour being charged.
With only double-digit points available, the New Human Civilization simply couldn’t afford a long-term rental; therefore, once it had carried humans to their destination, it would imdiately return to the trade market.
People needed to quickly discuss whether “to go or to stay.”
