Chapter 826: Chapter 814: Superluminal Communication
For so reason, Zhang Yuan always felt that although these aliens appeared respectful, their reverence was for powerful civilizations rather than envy, which was baffling. Typically, a Level 4 Civilization would definitely envy a Level 5 Civilization.
However, what he saw and heard later quickly explained this: these fellows were simply too Zen-like, having lost all motivation to advance!
This garden-like planet was filled with colorful plants. So plants were as enormous as mountains, seemingly like the legendary World Tree, while others were just ordinary flora.
All the plants seed perfectly planned, divided into various sections that were interspersed with modern transportation facilities—highways, railways, bridges, amusent parks, and so forth.
The forest was also inhabited by various animals—so climbing trees, so eating, others lazily sunbathing or happily playing gas…
According to this curly-haired baboon, there are as many as twelve types of intelligent animals on the planet!
The key thing is, in Zhang Yuan’s view, these intelligent beings were almost in a state of anarchistic freedom, without political systems or organizations, living a life of extre affluence without worries.
“Aliens? Hello!”
“Hello.”
Occasionally, a few strangely shaped guests would pass by, taking no surprise at this group of aliens. After greeting them, they would move on. After inquiries, it was discovered that the Alliance was hosting a beach basketball ga, attracting a large crowd.
Zhang Yuan felt that this kind of carefree lifestyle was sowhat similar to what he’d experienced in Sakura World.
“It’s truly a romantic life where each individual can choose their own life goals…though there might be so drawbacks.”
“Indeed, all our scientists work voluntarily, but technological developnt is a bit slow… However, many behaviors are still prohibited by law. Our social system is regulated by ancient, more advanced civilizations, simplified as the etiquette cultural system.”
The so-called etiquette cultural system uses higher moral standards to regulate society as a whole, with laws serving as the baseline, and morals being more important. As long as everyone follows the moral frawork, violating morals inevitably leads to public criticism.
This ti, in charge of chatting with aliens were mainly superhumans, while traditional humans only listened from the sidelines. This provided a better test of superhumans’ performance in diplomatic scenarios.
The leading curly-haired baboon was very talkative, introducing the cultural history of their Alliance as they walked.
When they heard that the Green Leaf Alliance had a history of up to billions of years, everyone was extrely surprised.
Zhang Yuan said, “Simov Civilization?! Your Alliance is indeed ancient, you must know various interesting stories hidden in history.”
“Of course! It’s just that those interesting historical stories might have been forgotten by most civilizations. Our sovereign civilization is a very lazy species, and they might not even bother with small tasks like sorting history, only rembering so major events.”
“Even technological developnt is haphazard; perhaps after a period, there’d be a gap in talents and a large chunk would be forgotten, alas! It’s sothing that’s just unavoidable. In so periods, a lot of talents erge, and in others, none at all.”
This curly-haired baboon began to ramble on and on, as if telling endless stories.
Perhaps facing a strange “Level 5 Civilization” strengthened their desire to express, changing their mindset. Anyway, they thought the Green Leaf Alliance might not necessarily lag behind a Level 5 Civilization.
After walking for approximately fifteen minutes, Zhang Yuan and others saw another strange tree, about three hundred ters high, with lush branches and leaves, resembling the legendary World Tree.
This one even had so chanical devices installed on its body, looking sowhat peculiar.
As the group passed by, the massive tree trembled slightly, and random fruits fell down from it.
“This is one of the ruling species of the Green Leaf Alliance, Kangerta. These foods are gifts for you.”
The curly-haired baboon said, “They don’t really enjoy sports; they prefer staying here quietly sunbathing, so the reception of guests is usually done by us animals.”
It turns out, plants are the rulers within the Green Leaf Alliance!
This truth once again shocked everyone.
Zhang Yuan quickly guessed the general societal model of this peculiar Alliance, “No wonder, these intelligent animals are just vassals, so they are not keen on developing technology. When plants are the rulers, the thoughts of animals are sowhat assimilated.”
Moreover, this Alliance was well-protected by a forr high-level civilization, possessing nurous technological heritages, possibly with the strength to face a Level 5 Civilization, so every move was rather carefree.
They genuinely had quite so confidence!
Of course, after this investigation, Zhang Yuan also believed that a more tolerant attitude should be adopted towards these rare species. Even if the other party is suspected to be a Sinking Civilization, it’s actually not a big deal, as such species are just too rare…
Innate limitations make it difficult for plants to live and develop like animals, so they can’t be viewed in the sa light. Moreover, even the genetic philosophies between them are different, so what’s there to compare?
The curly-haired baboon stepped forward and conversed with the massive tree.
“Greetings, Galactic Progress Alliance. Do you know which location in the Milky Way you’d like to transmit the ssage to?” The screen next to the massive tree displayed a series of texts.
So of the branches swayed slightly; the structure of this plant is sowhat similar to a sensitive plant, so it can make so distinctive moves.
The leader of the Half-sphere people stepped forward, reporting a coordinate, the very coordinates of their forr Mother Star.
“Unfortunately, the area you reserved does not have a corresponding network system, so it cannot be contacted.” After a while, the massive tree displayed this ssage on the screen next to it.
“Perhaps your civilization can wait a few thousand years, maybe by then the superluminal network system will be completed.”
The Half-sphere people shook their heads helplessly. They were just trying casually; it didn’t matter if contact couldn’t be made, as their old Mother Civilization is now too far away. As for waiting here for a few thousand years, it’s simply impossible.
Nevertheless, they still felt a bit disappointed.
Zhang Yuan stepped forward and reported the coordinates of the Solar System, his mood slightly tense.
There’s quite a probability that a superluminal network system is within 10 light years of the Solar System. Because back when the Earth Era spaceship was on its route, it had encountered related construction spaceships.
The massive tree beca silent, seeming to search for the superluminal network system near the coordinates.
After quite a while, the screen finally displayed a line of text: “Congratulations, good news, the superluminal communication network in the Milky Way has already covered the related area!”
“We have already contacted the corresponding outpost of the Amoeba Faction and can transmit ssages in the surrounding area through the curvature spaceship.”
