Chapter 687: Chapter 684 Military Alliance
Zhang Yuan finished his last sip of tea, looking at the docunts several tis before suppressing that baffling train of thought. Honestly, in the brief period of communication with the Half-sphere Civilization, these confusing bafflents were exceedingly abundant.
He waved his hand, “Let’s go, to the conference room. The people there must also be stunned, waiting to discuss!”
Due to the small radius of the centrifugal wheel inside the transport ship, the Coriolis effect was quite severe, and the floor was not flat.
The floor of the living area had a slight curve, walking inside felt sowhat like motion sickness. However, even with the feeling of motion sickness, it was sowhat better than complete weightlessness.
Li Zhendong chattered incessantly behind him, his face flushed with excitent, “The Half-sphere Civilization wants to form a military alliance with us to face the complex future situations in the Milky Way… This sounds nice, but… why? This is so strange!”
“They probably don’t understand us, do they? We don’t understand them either. The only knowledge we have is just at the surface, we don’t even know each other’s history, how could we suddenly form an alliance?”
Forming a military alliance was definitely a historically significant event!
Originally, the New Human Civilization wanted to find the Tos Civilization to form an alliance, as both sides had worked together for a thousand years and had a certain understanding of each other. People knew that the other was a fairly reliable civilization.
But now, suddenly a Half-sphere Civilization pops up, well, it feels very strange.
How exactly the Half-sphere Civilization is, people don’t know.
An alliance, no matter how you put it, must have a hierarchy; complete democracy and equality would only lead to disunity. There are countless examples on Earth, such as the powerful Europe being bullied by nobodies. Therefore, New Human Civilization will inevitably strive for the leading power in the alliance.
“But, are these Half-sphere people really willing to beco vassals? After all, theirs is a third-level Civilization, what’s going on?”
Zhang Yuan cald himself and shook his head, “Don’t ask , I just found out about this news. Wasn’t I just having tea with you, old brother!”
Li Zhendong’s imagination ran wild, making an enlightened expression, and still kept talking as he followed, “Could it be that sothing has happened to this civilization? It must be the case, they’ve been targeted by a Level 4 Civilization, then they want to find a shield. If that’s true, we must not be fooled for petty gains!”
“…I also thought of another possibility, there might be so problems inside this civilization, could they be a Sinking Civilization? Hence, they want to grab onto the big leg in advance? No way, absolutely not, it’s too dangerous!”
“It could also be because… they want to steal the Curvature Technology!”
“Yes, they want to steal the Curvature Technology, then just run away!”
Due to his own wild thoughts, Li Zhendong’s face turned from red to purple.
“Alright, alright, shut up for now. You’re of a considerable age, have lived who knows how many years, and yet still act so neurotic. The problems you can think of, others can naturally think of too. Steal secrets? It’s not that easy to steal, right? Send a spy to steal? Or to invade our P4 level security network?”
Zhang Yuan pointed to a nearby cara, “Be careful that your flustered behavior gets captured, and then it ends up in the papers, on TV. Journalists from Deep Space Daily just love taking pictures of your ugly face, and then they use it to entertain the netizens.”
“Cough cough!” Li Zhendong, startled, quickly straightened his attire and passed the cara with dignity, entering into the conference room of the transport ship.
This ti, the the of the eting was, of course, about the mysterious credentials submitted by the Half-sphere Civilization. The diplomats present were almost all completely perplexed, their buzzing discussions sounding like a busy swarm of bees.
People’s first reaction was to wonder if there were any possible traps hidden within…
Old Yang from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs cleared his throat and signaled everyone to be quiet; he said, “Listen to first, this is just a preliminary proposal from the other side, not to say they definitely want to join our team. Don’t be too surprised yet.”
“The main goal of the Half-sphere Civilization joining us is to replicate their ancestors; that is their first goal. They are willing to pay a great cost for it, at least an equivalent of 1000 to 1500 Amoeba points.”
“Didn’t Professor Zhang say that it would take hundreds to thousands of years to achieve this goal? So, they simply decided to co over. As long as an alliance is ford, both parties naturally have ample ti to accomplish this.”
“The second goal is to form a Military Alliance. Politically independent but mutually cooperative in military and industrial aspects, to confront dangers together… That’s basically it.”
“The Half-sphere Civilization claims that they have no historical enemies; hence, they won’t hold us back.”
“We… have had so enemies historically, but they are all near the Dyson Sphere, so we probably won’t encounter them again.”
“Their third goal, naturally, is to acquire Curvature Technology. Without Curvature Technology, whether they can survive in the future is up to fate. We are, after all, a Level 4 Civilization and possess a Curvature Battle Star, so we have a certain degree of attractiveness to them. Everyone, have a bit of confidence, don’t always think about conspiracy theories!”
“Of course, to accomplish these goals, they are willing to pay a certain price. Let’s take a look at these proposals first!”
“The first goal is to replicate ancestors?” Zhang Yuan furrowed his brow, a strong sense of eeriness arising in his heart. Although he had had contact with them before, he still couldn’t grasp what these Half-sphere people were thinking.
What does replicating ancestors an?
He had said it would take a very long ti, and then those Half-sphere people just shalessly joined?
WTF!
This logic is not problematic, but so details are really strange… too strange!
It’s almost like dealing with madn!
Zhang Yuan couldn’t help but pat his chest, secretly thinking that he was getting old, and his thinking couldn’t keep up with the tis, at least not with these insane Half-sphere people.
A thought popped into his head, “That is, these Half-sphere people have made replicating their ancestors a great goal, more important than their own lives. This idea is subtle, interesting, and has a certain degree of research value.”
Another point, the idea of jointly confronting enemies is good, but what if one party just runs away? Why should there be trust between each other, to each fly away in face of great danger is the norm, isn’t it…
Before anyone could question these issues, the staff up front sent a batch of docunts to everyone’s personal computers. These were the “statents of intent” submitted by the Half-sphere Civilization.
That is, a more detailed historical culture and social status of their own civilization; if both parties truly want to form an alliance, then they definitely need to understand each other better, instead of hiding and concealing like in the past and just trade once without future contact.
This was what Zhang Yuan was more interested in. He watched intently, his expression gradually changed, and he couldn’t help but curse inwardly, “What a crazy and bizarre history!”
