From black technology to super engineering - #539 - Chapter 537 Don't You Have Chairs?
Udalis walked out of the office and came to the command cabin of the engineering spacecraft.
Looking out through the thick light-transmitting body of the ship’s cabin-humans call it “glass”, an oval-shaped asteroid is covered with construction machinery and a huge steel building.
Around the asteroid, several construction ships were releasing satellites, and further away were the battle flagship and two frigates of the Holy Star Fleet.
A little further away is a temporary material transfer platform, and several material spaceships are constantly taking off and landing.
Here, it is the companion galaxy of the homeland of the holy star, and the artificial singularity is built here.
Udalis frowned slightly, looking at the “singularity generating device” that had taken shape in front of him, lost in thought.
Just now, he asked Ye Ming Dali, whether the courage of human beings to face the executors is the use of man-made singularities-this is also the consensus reached by the entire Wisdom Institute of the Holy Star after countless guesses and demonstrations.
If human beings want to ensure the absolute safety of the earth, they cannot allow the executors to have the opportunity to attack.
So… if the man-made singularity can be made extremely large, then it is really possible for them to send the executor’s fleet away directly.
If so, it means that humans have mastered a higher energy.
However, Ye Ming denied this speculation. And told him that human beings’ measures are indeed based on defense first, but the best defense is offense, so human beings will cherish the friendship with the target star.
“Uda. What are you looking at?”
At this time, a voice sounded behind him.
Wu Da turned around and saw that it was Kunt Rees who was in charge of the construction here, and immediately straightened his expression: “Uncle Kun, I’m thinking about how many resources we can get from humans in the future.”
“Limited by the power, the resources that can be sent are probably limited.” Kunt Reiss smiled slightly: “And instead of seeking resources, it is better to seek technology.”
Uda nodded, looking like he was being educated.
After all, Quint Reis is a veteran Reis second only to Muda Reis, and he is also one of his supporters, so he deserves to be respected.
“By the way, how long is the progress on the human side?”
“Just now I asked Ye Ming Dali, they still have about three months.”
“Three months…” Quintellis frowned slightly: “It stands to reason that their engineering conditions can’t be so slow?”
“It should be because they are preparing for war.” Uda thought for a while and said, “I heard that the diplomatic mission they sent has arrived at Atom Star today, and it is estimated that they will seek help from the Kodo tribe.”
“Hmm.” Quintelis nodded, leaning his back against the central column, leaning slightly, his old face showing a bit of emotion: “Not to mention the galaxy cluster, even the entire vortex supercluster of galaxies. It’s been a long time since there was a war. I don’t know what the outcome of this battle between humans and enforcers will be.”
Hearing this, Udalisi immediately became interested, walked to the side of the other party, with a curious expression on his face: “Uncle Kun, you have seen Star Wars, right?”
“I’ve only seen the war between the two planets in the Turaka galaxy.” Quint looked at Uda with a smile, reached out and patted each other’s shoulder: “No one has seen the war with the Executor .”
Uda was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously glanced at the mothership outside the window of the ship—it was the flagship of War Lisherko, and he had been guarding here to protect safety.
“Herko said he had seen it.”
“Herko is Blowing Whale, he has only seen planets destroyed by executors.”
“Eh… I thought he saw it with his own eyes.”
“I saw it with my own eyes… Hehe, the executor hasn’t appeared for many years.” Quint also looked out the window, with a little emotion in his voice: “When I was young, I was just like you. I was bold and liked to think. Later, I gradually realized that the universe is far bigger than we imagined. Not to mention the local group of galaxies of our home star, even if the vortex supercluster is included, in the eyes of the civilization behind the executor, it is estimated that it is still a poor country—so far So far, no one, not even the Krong people, knows where the executors came from.”
Wu Da was silent for a while, and after a while, he took a light breath: “Uncle Kun, do you think the technology of the Kerong people can fight against the executor?”
“I don’t know, you have to ask the Kron people.”
“…Where should I ask?”
“Dariji is going to reopen the trade route, and then you can go to the Kron galaxy to play!” Kuntlisi laughed, and winked again: “The female of the Krong people is very upright!”
Wu Da was startled for a moment, and then he became excited: “Really? Director Da Li really intends to restart the waterway?”
“Hush…” Quintess made a silent gesture: “We have sent a return mission, and it is normal to restart the waterway.”
Uda took a deep breath, then clenched his fists.
According to the ancient holy star calendar, he is only 80 years old this year—about the same as the 80 years of human beings—but among the holy star population who generally live more than 300 years old, 80 years old is only a “youth” period.
Ever since Uda could remember, the New Holy City has not opened a trade route, and has been carefully staying behind in this useless galaxy to develop and recover quietly.
But he knew that a hundred years ago, during the construction of the new holy city, there were actually trade routes.
After all, there is a shortage of all resources here, and they still have to trade with other civilizations to exchange what they have.
Now that the waterway is restarting, it means that the new holy city will no longer aim at “survival” as in the past, but will instead regard “development” as its goal.
“Okay, I’m going to take a rest, you can use brain control to help me check the execution, and at the same time urge the human side…”
“OK!”
…
There are star galaxies, on Xunxing.
Dong Xuanxuan stood in front of the porthole. She firmly held Ita’s mechanical hand beside her, staring intently at the huge hollow building in front of her.
Dong Xuanxuan came here as a representative of Jizhi Technology in the human mission this time.
Of course, she is a businessman, not a diplomat. After coming here for “inspection”, she will return with the ship.
“Ita, what is this?”
“You hurt me.” Ita flicked the mechanical arm, with a bit of dissatisfaction in his words.
Dong Xuanxuan laughed haha, and although she let go, she put her arms around Ita’s waist by the way: “Then it’s all right?”
“itch!”
“Stop pretending! Come on, what is this?” Dong Xuanxuan said and looked behind her – a large group of people behind them were smiling at the two of them, and at the same time they were all curiously looking at the huge building in front of them.
This building appeared once in the previously disclosed footage of the investigation of the targeted star, but they didn’t know what it was used for. I only know that the space technology of the Stars is very advanced, and there are many spaceships… at least more than humans.
Only now did they realize how shocking this thing was when they watched it at a close distance. The diameter of this cylindrical building is not too big, only about 100 meters, but the length is a bit too ridiculous. Just a simple visual inspection can feel this thing. At least more than five kilometers.
“Well, particle weapons.”
“Scared! Is it true?” Dong Xuanxuan subconsciously took a step back as she spoke: “Hey, what are they trying to do? Do you want to blow up the wormhole?”
“It’s a good idea…” Ita giggled: “To break through the wormhole, they need at least a stellar level of energy.”
“Then give us a shot, can we bear it?”
“Not yet finished—their ship is coming.”
As Ita’s voice fell, everyone saw that the two spaceships were approaching rapidly like meteors.
After a while, the projection of a blue star appeared in the center of the spaceship.
The man was just over two meters tall, handsome, upright, and majestic.
“Human envoys, hello, my name is Gu Mu, and I welcome you on behalf of the supreme Sacred Star Elders Council.”
…
Xun Xing and the transport ship slowly followed the two spaceships, heading for the space orbit of the target star.
All the pictures are the same as those sent back by the previous probes. The base camp of the Kodo Canglan Stars is a resplendent space city built in space.
After Xun Xing docked at the airport, Dong Xuanxuan walked down the spiral staircase wearing a spacesuit and following the ambassador Cheng Jun sent by the human side.
As soon as she landed on the ground, she felt top-heavy and felt a little unsteady on her feet.
“Ma’am, you just entered the gravity zone from weightlessness, you may need to get used to it.”
In front of the passage, the envoy of the Kodo tribe named Gu Mu looked down at Dong Xuanxuan slightly, and spoke in the language of the Eyed Stars, but soon the simultaneous interpretation reached the ears of Dong Xuanxuan and Ambassador Cheng Jun.
“Sir, maybe you misunderstood, our spaceship has a gravity zone.” Dong Xuanxuan supported Ita beside her, looked up at him, and replied with a smile.
The Canglan Starman named Gu Mu was slightly taken aback: “Does your spaceship have a gravity zone?”
“Yes.” Dong Xuanxuan took a deep breath. Fortunately, supporting Ita made her feel a lot better. Afterwards, she and Ambassador Cheng exchanged glances, and the two picked up their steps and walked forward.
Sure enough, artificial centrifugal gravity is used here…
From this point of view, the technology of the Kodo people is really not good.
Of course, they came here this time to do business. In theory, the more trashy the technology of the Stars, the more beneficial it is to human beings.
Seeing the two walking, Gu Mu also started to lead the way ahead.
Soon, a group of people stepped onto a long teleportation car, and after a period of translation, the car stopped in front of a grand hall.
Dong Xuanxuan raised her head and looked at the palace in front of her, which looked like a ladder, her entire eyebrows were inadvertently frowned.
As a representative, she has naturally seen the images of all the detectors, and knows that this is the place where the elders of the Kodo people receive and discuss matters. But I didn’t expect that this ghostly ladder was so long and so high.
Just as she was secretly slandering, Ye Ming’s voice suddenly came from her ear.
“Sister Xuan, do you want to complain?”
It’s good that I didn’t hear Ye Ming’s voice, but when she heard Ye Ming admonishing herself, Dong Xuanxuan became a little crazy, and said in a low voice: “Nonsense, why don’t you try?”
“Hahaha, I really want to try, but unfortunately I can’t come.”
“…Are you watching the scene?”
“Well, shared Ita’s vision.”
“Then you know how tall these aliens are… I always feel that they look down upon us.”
“Yes, so…you have to take the initiative later.”
“What kind of initiative?”
“Ambassador Cheng represents the peaceful and friendly attitude of mankind, and you represent the crystallization of the highest technology of mankind.”
As Ye Ming’s voice fell, Dong Xuanxuan saw that the Canglan Starman named Gu Mu who was Dai Lu in front of her – seemed to be the receptionist on the opposite side, and seemed to be an “elder” – looked back at herself.
Dong Xuanxuan met the other party’s gaze, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.
“understood.”
After finishing the communication with Ye Ming, Dong Xuanxuan looked at Ambassador Cheng beside her while stepping on the stairs, and saw the other party smiling at her through the astronaut helmet.
It seems that Ambassador Cheng should have also received the order.
Obviously, for the two of them this time, one of them should sing a good face and the other should sing a bad face.
Otherwise, if human beings come from afar, they will not be underestimated by these tall guys!
…
The hundreds of steps reflect the magnificence of the palace, as well as the identity and majesty of the great elder sitting at the highest point.
When Ambassador Cheng Jun, Dong Xuanxuan, and Ita behind him and the two escort robots stepped onto the highest point, the elders in the three seats all looked over.
Ambassador Cheng Jun upheld the demeanor of human diplomacy, stepped forward to introduce himself, and then took out a gift list and presented it to the young elder named Gu Mu.
The Great Elder took the gift list, only glanced at it briefly, put the gift list aside, and then looked down at Cheng Jun.
However, before the Great Elder could speak, Dong Xuanxuan suddenly took a step forward.
“Great Elder, may I ask, do you have no chairs here?”
Dong Xuanxuan raised her head and looked at the elder who was sitting on the high platform like an emperor, with her hands behind her back and a smile on her face.
“Chair?”
“Yes, in human etiquette, no matter whether it is a transaction or cooperation, the postures of both parties are the same. Either they are standing or both are sitting. Standing situation.”
While talking, Dong Xuanxuan pointed to the golden chair where the three of them were sitting.
As her voice fell, Ita also simultaneously translated her words into the language of the Kodo tribe and reached the ears of these elders.
So Dong Xuanxuan saw that the face of the elder Gu Mu who brought them in became a little surprised.
This made Dong Xuanxuan slightly astonished.
Don’t these people even understand the most basic diplomatic etiquette? No, they came to greet me… It means that they still know some manners!
But now what is it if you don’t give a seat?
Or are these people just like those monarchs in the feudal era on earth? Do you think that human beings came across the star sea, and the co-authors came to make offerings?
What’s the difference between this… and the Qing Dynasty?
The hall fell into silence.
Dong Xuanxuan looked up at the First Elder, without hiding her surprise on her face.
The elder’s voice sounded.
“Bring a chair.”
After a while, two Canglan Stars came out from the side hall, each holding a large gilt-backed chair.
