Stellaris: Earth Alliance

Chapter 14 The Circle God Contract (Additional update)
Listening to the discussions of other scientists, Qin Xu walked up to Chen Xiaomeng and asked doubtfully.

"Can we build this kind of building? From what they said, it sounds very impressive."

While analyzing the three-dimensional map formed by the scientific research ship's surface scanning, Chen Xiaomeng said with extreme excitement: "Yes, of course it can!"

"what?"

Qin Xu himself was stunned. He just asked casually and didn't believe it, but he actually got an affirmative answer from Chen Xiaomeng.

"Why not? We can't build it. Don't we have the ability to rebuild this place? There is a ready-made one here in Ideal City. We just need to repair it. We don't even need to understand the principles and just build it back as it was. alright."

The scientists looked at me and I looked at you, and for a moment they felt that what Chen Xiaomeng said was very reasonable and irrefutable.

At the same time, the news that one of the giant buildings, the Ideal City, was discovered also spread back to the United Nations meeting on Earth.

The moment the picture appeared, all the representatives were shocked.

What a perfect urban planet this is, a giant steel city made entirely of special alloys. Although it is just a lifeless planet that has been abandoned for who knows how many years, it still made the people in the entire conference tremble.

"Well, Representative of Country Z, I suddenly feel that Alpha Planet is boring..."

"Representative of country M...me too."

"I also……"

The representative from Country N approached timidly.

"..."

"How about we let Governor Hu go first? Let's clean up the place. After cleaning, do some construction, and then we can pack up and move there..."

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

"Your Majesty the Governor, an order has been issued from above..."

When Yu Minghai suddenly came in, he locked the door behind him.

Hu Yiyi's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"What did it say?"

"You have been relieved of your duties as Governor of Alpha Planet."

"Then?"

Although Hu Yiyi was surprised, he was not too surprised.After all, she had been weird about her appointment as governor in the first place.

"Then, you are now the governor of Ideal City."

"?"

"It's the home planet of the ancient biological laboratory underground on Alpha Star."

Hu Yiyi jumped up from the chair. Just as he was about to run out of the Governor's Mansion, Yu Minghai backhand controlled him to the ground.

"Ah ah ah, Yu Minghai! You liar! Didn't you promise that you would never let me have access to anything related to there again?"

Hu Yiyi's hands and feet were grabbed.

"Sorry, I'm a soldier."

Yu Minghai was very helpless.

"You are the only one in all mankind who has the characteristics of an environmental engineer, and you are an artifact to open up wasteland planets. If you don't go to such a large-scale debris clearing work in Ideal City, who will?"

"Ah, ah, Yu Minghai, I want to break up with you!"

"It's useless to break up. The superiors have your detailed files and know your situation. On the one hand, I am your boyfriend, and on the other hand, I am also the person sent by the superiors to monitor you. Otherwise, how do you think I can leave the army every day? Asking for leave to come and stay with you...it all comes at a price."

"There's nothing weird there, right?"

Hu Yiyi knew he couldn't run away, so he could only say in a very tangled voice.

"Don't worry, Chen Xiaomeng and the others have been investigating there for a long time. It's okay."

"They? Didn't they discover that there was an indigenous civilization underground on Alpha Planet?"

Hu Yiyi murmured in a low voice.

"Huh? What did you say?"

"No, it's nothing. I'll just go..."

In the sky above the ruins of the ideal city, that is, the urban planet, engineering ships that were under construction on Planet Alpha are now landing one by one on this vast expanse of city ruins.

Hearing that Hu Yiyi was coming to take charge of the cleaning and reconstruction of the ruins of Ideal City, Chen Xiaomeng came out to greet him very happily.

The visitors were Yu Minghai and Hu Yiyi. Yu Minghai and Chen Xiaomeng knew each other. The two nodded to each other as greetings, and then Chen Xiaomeng rushed up and hugged Hu Yiyi.

It can be seen that Hu Yiyi is still nervous, obviously her first impression of this civilization is not good.

Usually Hu Yiyi is enthusiastic and Chen Xiaomeng is reserved, but this time it's the other way around.

"Huh? Hu Yiyi, what are you holding in your hand?"

Chen Xiaomeng saw Hu Yiyi's hands hiding behind her back, so she followed her around and quickly snatched a doll from her.

"Isn't this a mermaid? You like this? I thought you..."

Chen Xiaomeng's implication is that this doll has a human body and a fish tail. Strictly speaking, it is actually a deformed monster.

Of course, good-looking ones are not called monsters.

Hu Yiyi snatched the doll over and held it nervously to her chest, "This one is different."

Chen Xiaomeng tilted his head in confusion, not understanding.

But forget it.

"Let me introduce this place to you. This is where you will work in the future. It's spectacular!"

Chen Xiaomeng found the most spacious place with the least architectural damage among the ruins of the city.

"Wherever I work, I come here to shovel garbage... When I finish shoveling the garbage, it's time for me to retire."

It is undeniable that Hu Yiyi does not have the talent to be a governor, and now she realizes this with self-knowledge.

"Ah haha, don't worry about these details."

On the other side, Yu Minghai saw Qin Xu who was doing nothing every day at a glance, and he quickly saluted.

Qin Xu was startled by him and didn't understand what it meant, but he still hurriedly returned the gift. "Sir Qin, the legend about you has spread among our army."

Seeing Qin Xu's flattered look, Yu Minghai couldn't help but explain.

"what?"

Qin Xu was even more confused.

"160 bullets destroyed 160 enemies, and we did it at a complete disadvantage. It's hard for us to imagine, but we all admire you deeply."

Yu Minghai said very seriously.

"luck."

"..."

"Besides this sentence, he doesn't know how to be humble. Just don't embarrass him."

Chen Xiaomeng snickered from the side.

"And I'm not a commander, I'm a scientist..."

"Pfft."

Chen Xiaomeng couldn't help laughing.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, but Chen Xiaomeng immediately held it in, then waved his hand, "It's okay, you continue."

"...Okay, I'm sir, I'm not a scientist."

After being interrupted like this by Chen Xiaomeng, Qin Xu still had the nerve to call himself a scientist, so he could only follow Yu Minghai's words.

"Yes, although I don't know why Brother Qin wants to work on a scientific research ship, I think the battleship is your final destination. If you want to join the Space Force, I can write a letter of recommendation for you at any time."

After Yu Minghai pondered for a while, he said very seriously.

"Ah? No way..."

This time it was Chen Xiaomeng's turn to be stunned.

Yu Minghai glanced at Chen Xiaomeng inexplicably, wondering why she had such a big reaction.

Chen Xiaomeng, who seemed to realize that she had said something wrong, quickly covered it up: "I mean, Chief Qin is very busy at work and shouldn't have that time."

Saying that, Chen Xiaomeng looked at Qin Xu, "right?"

Qin Xu was noncommittal, obviously he was also seriously considering the feasibility of this matter.

Seeing Qin Xu's silence, Chen Xiaomeng's mood also dropped for a moment, and then he changed the subject and said: "Sergeant Yu Minghai, we will go to the interior of the city ruins to carry out an investigation mission in a moment. Do you want to come with us?"

"Investigate what?"

"The reason for the sudden destruction of this civilization."

Chen Xiaomeng said very solemnly.

Yu Minghai was stunned, "Go."

"Haha, I know you can't help it. Unlike some people, who have no interest in it from beginning to end."

Chen Xiaomeng said, looking towards Qin Xu intentionally or unintentionally.

Qin Xu just yawned at this.

Even so, it is actually because it already knows the reason for the destruction of this civilization.

From the first moment he saw this planet, he knew it.But there is no need for him to say it directly. Others will know it after a little investigation anyway.

Liu Wenhan led a group of people deep into the ruins of the city and soon came to the place where historical materials were stored.

Stone walls are covered with words. In the end, no matter how advanced a civilization is, it still has to rely on carving words on stones to continue the traces of its civilization.

Under the ravages of the long years, all electronic equipment has been damaged, leaving only this stone wall filled with historical data, still telling the greatness of this civilization.

Chen Xiaomeng and others came to a stone wall and scanned the words on the stone wall over and over again into 550A to decipher the words.

"It's hard to imagine how ancient this civilization was."

"I just hope that these unclear handwritings are not some key information, otherwise the secret of the destruction of civilization may be lost forever."

Soon, the text deciphering work was hit. There were too many unclear handwritings and the progress bar of 550A's text translation work was stuck.

We have no choice but to let a group of sociological scientists start deciphering on the spot. They do not have the authority to open the 550A creative thinking module and must use their own strength to decipher it.

"Yuan...god...contract?"

"What is this? Why do religious words appear in the history of the demise of a top alien civilization?"

Some sociologists are puzzled during the translation process.

"Shouldn't all advanced civilizations be staunch materialist thinkers? Why does this article look like a mythical history?"

"Our... time is up. For 50 years we have benefited from the infinite power given by the end of reincarnation. We know that we will eventually pay a price, and we think that the price is something we can bear or we can find some way to avoid it. cost."

"But the reality is that we can't afford it, and we can't hide from it. The price we pay is everything."

"In an instant—so fast that we had no time to react, let alone prepare a countermeasure—it was gone. What was once a thriving colony, there was now only death. The mighty fleets that once sailed through the void were now nothing but ghosts and wreckage. Everything was swallowed up by the end. Everything was taken away by the void."

"All that remains of the empire is a team of exiles led by a powerful psychic who foresaw the coming of the end... What the hell? A psychic?"

A sociologist became more and more confused during the translation, and then when he translated the psychic, he really couldn't hold it anymore.

"Quick, what's behind?"

Chen Xiaomeng urged him to translate quickly and not to delay.

At the same time, Qin Xu clearly felt that a light suddenly appeared in Liu Wenhan's dim eyes.

That is the light of hope.

Qin Xu was noncommittal. This was actually the reason why he had been saying that Liu Shaomei might not be truly dead.

Although biologically, she is indeed dead.

But just as the arrival of gods can wipe out half of a civilization's population in an instant, supernatural forces often won't reason with you.
