Stellaris: Earth Alliance

Chapter 41 Rock Intelligent Life

The mission assigned to the Mozi research ship this time was a galaxy exploration mission prepared before the war.

Based on the star map information traded with the Republic of Quelak, a country of reptilian intelligent lizard people.

There are two borders between the Bazadi Empire and the United Nations of Earth.

One is the Barnard Galaxy, which was also the time when the United Nations of Earth first encountered the Bazadi Empire. At that time, they didn’t know who the other party was. They only knew that they would open fire upon meeting each other without any reason.

The space army of the United Nations of the Earth was disabled, and since then it has been silent and blocked the signal, and it took more than ten years to recover.

To this day, they still haven't explored the information there. The Barnard Galaxy should have already built a space station by the other party. It would not be a wise move for them to rush in now.

But there is no doubt that the opponent is likely to attack them from this direction.

This is an important defense direction for the Earth United Nations.

However, not necessarily.

Because the other party did not immediately march towards the United Nations of Earth after occupying Barnard Galaxy.

It may be that there is no hyperspace route leading to the United Nations on Earth in this direction.

Another place that needs to be defended is the Cologne colony, which is the Cologne galaxy.

The Cologne Galaxy has been occupied by the other side. The 7 million people of the Earth United Nations there have no survivors, and all information in that direction has been lost.

So the current focus of defense is on that side.

But in fact, in addition to these two places that are definitely bordering, there may be many galaxies that are not sure whether they are bordering.

Because the other party may not come directly from the country, they can also choose to take a detour, pass through other hyperspace channels, and break into the territory of the United Nations on Earth from non-bordering places.

Once they are penetrated into the heart of the United Nations on Earth, the fleet fails to return to defense in time, and the Earth is landed by the army, then the war can basically be declared over.

The Republic of Kullak is a civilization with a technological level much higher than that of the United Nations on Earth.

Their scientific research ship came out of the nearest wormhole very early and established initial contact with the United Nations of Earth. It was also the first civilization that the United Nations of Earth encountered.

The United Nations of Earth has opened its borders to them, and their scientific research ships have been able to explore here. As a result, they have explored many galaxies that the United Nations of Earth has not explored.

At this moment, with the hyperspace channel information traded from the Republic of Quillak, the Mozi scientific research ship was able to quickly lock the coordinates and perform a hyperspace channel jump to complete the exploration of these unknown galaxies as soon as possible.

Only by completing the exploration of these unknown galaxies and transmitting the coordinates back to the Space Army behind them can the Space Army allow the fleet to make a hyperspace jump.

Where scientific research ships have not explored, the Space Force fleet cannot make a hyperspace jump to that galaxy.

The place that the Mozi research ship wants to explore this time is a galaxy on Earth that the United Nations has not yet explored.

According to the star map provided by Quillak, the scientific research ship quickly arrived at the entrance of the hyperspace channel, started the hyperspace engine, and then disappeared into the galaxy.

After appearing in a new galaxy, the scientific research ship's sensors began to operate at full power, scanning the galaxy's information in all directions. It was thought to be an ordinary exploration mission, but it suddenly encountered a spacecraft.

"Alert, an unknown force's scientific research ship has been discovered. Alarm, an unknown force's scientific research ship has been discovered."

The crew on the research ship Mozi suddenly became nervous.

Although it is possible to run again through the hyperspeed engine, it is really too tortured, and I really don’t want to try it again in a short time.

The other party may have considered this too. After all, we are all scientific research ships, so there is really no need to run away after meeting.

The tense atmosphere soon eased as the other party sent a communication request to the Earth United Nations' scientific research ship.

"..."

There was a burst of chirping, and it turned out to be a spaceship from an unknown force. The translator was broken.

But since the other party took the initiative to contact, they must also want to communicate.

The two sides sent a large amount of text and picture materials to each other, and the translation work was carried out rapidly.

"Hello, guests from the depths of the universe." The other person greeted him politely.

"Hello, we are the Mozi scientific research ship of the United Nations Human Race Deep Space Fleet of the Earth. We are here only to explore the galaxy. We have no malicious intentions. If we accidentally enter your territory, please forgive us and we will withdraw immediately."

"Haha, rather, we hope you have malicious intentions."

There was a burst of laughter from the other side.

The voice that came from it was a bit ethereal, as if he were speaking in a deep valley.

Su Lixuan thought in silence for a while.

Of course, the sound comes second, the main reason is that the reaction from the other party is very strange.

If you want to say that the other party is being exclusive, that's not true. They have already taken the initiative to contact us, and they probably want to communicate on an equal footing.

But to say that the other party is very friendly and to make such a joke now is obviously inappropriate.

While Su Lixuan was thinking about this matter, the scientists on the other side were still wondering about the sound of the people speaking on the other side.

"I see."

Chen Xiaomeng had been thinking hard, and finally clapped her hands as if she had figured something out.

"What did you think of?"

Qin Xu said doubtfully.

"Don't you think the voice on the other side is strange?"

"A bit."

"This is the sound of wind blowing through rocks. The vocal cords on the opposite side are probably rock structures. That's why the sound is so ethereal, like the echo of a deep valley."

"Rock life? Is there such a thing?"

Wang Xueer didn't quite believe it.

"I don't know either. But, it's really similar. This should be the only explanation."

Listening to the discussion of the people behind him, Su Lixuan hesitated for a while and then asked the other person a question.

The answer soon came in the affirmative.

This was really beyond everyone's expectations.

Bazadi is a bird-like intelligent creature, and the Alpha natives are mammal-like intelligent creatures. They can still understand it. Can inorganic substances made of rocks all over their bodies evolve intelligence?
"Is this strange? We have seen a pile of steel with intelligence."

The translator translated the words on the other side into Chinese, and everyone was suddenly silenced after reading it.

He couldn't help but look up at the camera in the command room.

550A, which suddenly became the focus of everyone, moved the camera slightly away, as if to say, don't look at me, you continue.

But that's obviously not the point.

Now that things have developed like this, it is basically certain that the other party has no ill intentions. It just seems that they have more martial ethics and are generally more pro-foreign.

Su Lixuan reported the situation here to his superiors, and finally confirmed that the other party was not recorded among the major civilizations that the Earth United Nations had contacted.

Su Lixuan and others were the first people to come into contact with this civilization, so the diplomatic work was naturally left to them.

The other side seems to be happy to start diplomatic work with this side, and the two sides sent each other a lot of information about their own civilization to show their sincerity.
