Astral Ant Tribe

A weapon 'sword' with a powerful flaming aura?

Not a weapon.

Not exactly an artifact...

Sword-shaped omnic?

A bit like a sword-shaped mechanical heart...

Long Bai is surprised. Zerg warriors are all named after plants. What kind of plant is 'Baba'?

It turns out to be an omnic!

It is suspected that he has reached the peak level of dominance!

This breath and temperament are a bit familiar...

Long Bai's thoughts turned sharply and he immediately contacted the super giant Star Destroyer docked in outer space!

Sword-shaped omnic!

The mechanical heart resides in a sword-shaped ‘device’.

The sword is its body.

According to Hefa, the supergiant Star Destroyer is one of the 'combat devices' it controls.

In other words, it controls the entire battleship fleet.

Long Bai was shocked, but quickly understood the situation and calmed down.

…

"Master Baba, this is the leader of the Xianglan Mountain Chamber of Commerce, Longbai."

Lord Manchi waved his tentacles and gave guidance,

"Seen Lord Barba!"

Long Bai greeted him respectfully.

"Ant... male..."

Childish, irritable, and fierce message thought, "I know you. The Great King Baishu, Wang Baizi. You have been trading with the Lizhu Chamber of Commerce through a chamber of commerce named Baiwei."

Long Bai: "Yes——"

Lord Manchi introduced: "Lord Longzhu has an expeditionary legion composed of one million combat omnics. Lord Baba is the commander of the legion. He also serves as the leader of the Lizhu Chamber of Commerce. He is in charge of the finance of the chamber of commerce and the omnibuses of his subordinates. It is no exaggeration to say that half of the Li Zhu Galaxy is controlled by Barba."

Lord Manchi added: "It is no accident that Chief Longbai possesses the Divine Tree of Law. The Pandan Chamber of Commerce led by Chief Longbai is the first chamber of commerce force to arrive in the Amber Galaxy, and so far, the harvest is far ahead."

"Currently, we have successfully found the third level three source point. In addition to the one exchanged with me, we control four level three source points. Leader Long Bai still has a great chance to harvest the fifth level three source point."

"Organizing soldiers on a large scale, searching for sources, and competing with tens or hundreds of millions of Zerg warriors is not a war, but better than a war. What is tested is the power leader's ability to control, command, and judge."

"Looking at other large chambers of commerce that dispatched hundreds of thousands or millions of insects, the most they only harvested two. Regardless of the process, just look at the results, and you can intuitively see the gap."

Manchi introduced it warmly, solemnly and solemnly, and then said:

"Chief Longbai, the main reason I am looking for you is to introduce you to Lord Barba. From now on, we will make a fortune in the same galaxy and take care of each other."

Long Bai: "It's my turn to thank Lord Manchi and Lord Barba for their care!"

"No!"

Lord Manchi raised his paw to deny, paused for a moment, pondered his words, and said slowly: "I shared the knowledge and technology of Wafa civilization with Lord Barba. Chief Longbai, it is our turn to thank you."

"This also means that currently, the three of us possess the demigod-level manufacturing technology of the Wafa civilization. It only takes a certain amount of time to develop and accumulate to reach the level of a demigod-level technological civilization..."

"Technological civilization has a characteristic, that is, it is easy to spread..."

"Chief Longbai, Lord Barba, I hope that we can reach an agreement, or a tacit understanding, together."

"Two core points."

"First, the knowledge of the Wafa civilization will no longer be disseminated to any other force. Technologies and creations involving the demigod field cannot be easily sold to outsiders. You can use it yourself or sell it to outsiders. You need to obtain the consent of the other two parties, and require the other party to cooperate with us. The three parties signed a confidentiality agreement. Especially the human civilization must be kept strictly confidential and not allowed to have any contact with it. What I mean is, beware of humans.”

"Second...the exchange of scientific research results."

"Demi-god-level technology is not enough. Master Barba and I, our goal is god-level technology. We want to reproduce the god-level technology of the Eternal Star Civilization, crack the secrets of god-level material manufacturing, and build god-level starships. We will ignore it. At the cost, organize your strength and invest financial resources to quickly verify and reproduce the demigod technology of the Wafa civilization, and continue to invest and continue to explore upwards.”

Lord Manchi said, paused, and said: "I heard that Xingshenao has optimized the 'Pedilnan Civilization Group' with the help of Black Law. It should have certain scientific and technological research and development capabilities, right? Long Chief Bai Da, I wonder if you have any plans in this regard? "

"this……"

Long Bai helped Star Sinnoh revive civilization. The main purpose was to make money by manufacturing technological products. The second was to independently build a deep space voyage fleet. He didn't think much about it at all...

Long Bai thought for a while, vigorously moved his tentacles, and said: "I have no plans for this at the moment, but I can do it!"

"As for the confidentiality agreement, that's definitely no problem!"

Master Manchi: "Well, let's consider that we have reached an agreement. We cannot sign a contract on this matter, but we are all leaders who stand at the pinnacle of the Sacred Tree Civilization. I believe that we will not break our promises."

Long Bai spoke in a deep tone, "I can make a formal promise and strictly abide by it."

"Chief Longbai, I can trust you!"

Lord Manchi paused for a moment and said: "It's good! In this way, the three of us now have a monopoly on the demigod-level technology of the Sacred Tree Civilization..."

Naturally, the True God does not allow monopoly, and the words of Lord Manchi will stop there.

Long Bai tapped his tentacles to show his understanding.

suddenly silent,

Master Barba broke the silence and asked: "Ant, the space capability used by the starship you just rode on comes from a civilization that is good at space technology? It is not the Wafa civilization."

Long Bai replied: "It comes from another, distant, half-technological, half-force civilization called the 'White Tower Civilization'. It's just some relics picked up."

Lord Barba: "White Tower Civilization? Never heard of it."

Long Bai directly activated the ability of the Tree Flower Heart Realm to compile the entire process of discovering the 'One-horned Wolf' relics, obtaining the artist's inheritance, and the artist's leaving the White Tower Civilization for unknown reasons and being tricked by Star God Ao into one message, which was written directly to Baba. Dominate consciousness.

"..."

"It turns out to be the Crystal Throne!"

"The old universe was destroyed 2 billion years ahead of schedule. There really is a civilization deliberately destroying it..."

Barba said: "It's too far. When you have time in the future, you can go there and grab the crystal throne."

Long Bai: "..."

Omnics also have their own personalities.

Black Law is a logistics management and auxiliary type of omnic, so his personality is relatively easy-going and gentle.

This Barba Master is clearly a combat omnic. His words and deeds are full of aggression. He is not easy to talk to or easy to get along with. At the same time, it spoke as if it had no scruples...

Long Bai's mind whirled and he said slowly: "In my early years, when I first stepped out of my home star and entered the White Crystal Galaxy, I was fortunate enough to have a conversation with the tree-shaped avatar of the True God of Nature on the Red Triton Star, and consulted about the White Tower Civilization and the Crystal God's Throne. "

Long Bai: "I instinctively feel that the Crystal Throne is a potential threat, but the True God of Nature doesn't pay attention to it at all. He perfunctorily asked me to go over and take a look..."

Barba dominates: "This is not perfunctory. Little Ant, be more confident. When you grow up, you will have the strength and ability to handle such problems independently."

"Thank you for the compliment..."

Long Bai tentatively said: "I also heard from the tree-shaped clone of the True God of Nature that the Zerg civilization listed a thousand 'serious threat' civilizations from the old universe era that may continue and threaten the survival of our God Tree civilization. We are organizing Strength, search at fixed points, and destroy them..."

The red light on the surface of Barba's master sword lit up, and she said in surprise: "Little ant! When you first entered the starry sky, the tree-shaped clone of the True God of Nature told you this? Then it is not generally optimistic about you! What are you doing on your home planet? Didn’t you do something good?”

"Good thing..."

"That's right..."

Long Bai: "I was born in the Continent of Ten Thousand Nations. Because I am a male ant, I was sent to the Continent of Ten Thousand Nations by the Flame Spider Chamber of Commerce to develop, but no ant country of the same tribe was willing to accept it, so I was sent to the Cloud Trace Continent next door, which is in a period of silence in the Force... …”

The important things have been said, now it's more like small talk. Long Bai briefly talked about his experience on his home planet, and how he led the United Kingdom of Boshuwan to fight against the Ant Kingdom of Blue Island to compete for the scepter of the God of the Ocean...

Barba said: "You are an ant who is very good at fighting! It is not difficult to understand! The True God of Nature must intend to promote you and lead the legion on expeditions in the future."

Long Bai asked: "Leading a legion on an expedition? Dealing with other civilizations?"

"nonsense!"

Barba dominated: "In the old universe era, the Divine Tree Civilization developed from a living planet, gradually expanded, and dominated the entire Kaia Superstar System. In this process, part of the civilization was completely wiped out, and part of the civilization was incorporated , and some of them ran away.”

"With the strong rise of the Divine Tree Civilization, there is also a major historical event, that is, the fall of the Eternal Stars Civilization! The god-level technological civilization collapsed in the form of internal rebellion and civil war, and a large number of territories were turned into wasteland. A large amount of knowledge, technology, and materials "

"Most of those civilizations that escaped are semi-god civilizations. They have the possibility of surviving the catastrophe of the universe and making a comeback. Some of them even have the possibility of going one step further and becoming a god-level civilization."

"In the new era of the universe, now is the best time to visit them one by one and eliminate them before they are weak enough to recover."

Master Manchi said: "There are currently three official expeditionary legions, commanded by the Master of Time and Space, the Master of Longzhu, and the Master of Reincarnation, and they operate separately."

After talking about this, Master Barba became excited and gloated: "Ant, let me tell you a secret. About four million years ago, the Master of Time and Space almost died."

"???"

Long Bai's expression was stern, his antennae twitched, and he stood upright waiting for the next step.

Barba Master: "A semi-god-level civilization with a body similar to the human race, named 'Brahib', a pure force civilization, and the leader is named 'Star Eater Empress'. The big spider accidentally fell into the trap and spent hundreds of It took ten thousand years to use up all my savings to save my life.”

Is there such a thing?

The historical data in the library records that the Brasib Civilization, a carbon-based life group that is highly similar to the natural gods, also needs to give birth to Force life forms from ordinary tribesmen and start to evolve from junior warriors.

This civilization also cultivates plants on a large scale, and masters the secret technique of improving ordinary plants to give birth to Force plants. It obtains enhanced power through God-given Force food, and rapidly evolves and grows.

The 'Star Eater Empress' is a demigod-level warrior who controls a demigod-level Star Destroyer named the 'Star Eater'. It is said that during the destruction of the Eternal Star civilization and the omnic uprising, 'Plutonium', one of the Eternal Twins, took refuge. ', is 'plutonium' tailor-made for it.

The Star-Eating Empress has average fighting strength, but no one can catch up with her when running. She has always been against the Sacred Tree Civilization.

Long Bai asked in confusion: "What kind of attack hurt the Lord of Space and Time that would take millions of years to heal and exhaust his savings?"

Lord Baba: "An extremely strange rule ability, sacrificing energy materials, setting traps, and imposing an extremely unique type of corrosion curse on those who step into the trap. The higher the level of the sacrificed energy materials and the greater the number, the stronger the curse."

"The Lord of Space and Time relied on his spatial talent and spatial ability, thinking that he was invincible in the universe, and he walked straight into the trap and almost died in it."

"The curse affects the laws of the universe. As long as it is within the universe, it will continue to take effect. Only by escaping to the outer void can you save your life. The True God of Nature deduced and designed a corresponding reverse sacrifice array to break it. The curse was lifted, but the price was that the Lord of Time and Space spent all the wealth he had accumulated with great effort. "

"Uh..."

"There is such a strange ability..."

Longbai asked: "What about the Star Devouring Queen? Is she destroyed? Her Star Devourer..."

"She ran away."

"The Lord of Time and Space is powerful enough, but not smart enough..."

Lord Baba sneered and said regretfully: "The Star Devouring Queen is very cunning. She found that the Zerg with awakened space talents appeared in the Shenshu Civilization of the New Era, and had the power to restrain the Star Devourer, so she decisively chose to run away. We guess that she must have run far away and hid, and it will be difficult to find her. The universe is infinite, and it will not be found in a short time at least."

Longbai: "..."

Longbai looked at Lord Manchi and asked: "Lord Manchi , then according to the rules, you will also organize the legion expedition? "

"Yes."

Manchi Lord said: "The development of the Amber Galaxy is on the right track. I will also form the Fourth Expeditionary Corps of the Divine Tree Civilization. But my strength is still lacking. Let's try it first, try to find a star god alliance, and sharpen my claws with the star god's fire."

"Captain Longbai, if you are interested, you can join us. I will give you the position of deputy commander of the legion and commander-in-chief of the war. The ants are naturally good at war, and you will command the legion to fight."

"This... I am only in the Star Realm... I am afraid I can't help in a short time..."

Longbai politely refused, and quickly changed the subject, asking: "Lord Manchi, you seem to be very repulsive to human civilization?"

Manchi Lord said: "Human The human race has a terrifying reproduction rate. They can develop tens of billions of people on any planet with life. My attitude has always been clear and firm. We must control the number of human populations and guard against qualitative changes caused by quantitative changes. We must prevent the troubles or even disasters that are difficult to solve within our Shenshu civilization from brewing one day in the future. "

"But due to historical reasons, the Nature God trusts the human race very much. Some of the powerful Zerg leaders do not seem to be aware of the potential crisis... I can't make decisions for other galaxies, but I can make decisions for the Amber Galaxy. The Amber Galaxy does not allow humans to appear, and the words of the Nature God will not work, let alone the clone, and even the original body will not work."

"..."

Long Bai focused and moved his tentacles to agree.

That's the reason.

I have seen human warriors, and the only impression is that they are weak.

It is difficult to evaluate without communication or interaction.

"Tsk——"

Baba Overlord sent out a sneering thought message and asked bluntly: "Ant, are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? Do you believe this?"

"Let me tell you the reason. When Manchi was in the Lizhu Galaxy, it mainly made money to support its tribe by manufacturing technology. The intelligent machines under its command are worse than each other. The things it made cost more than humans and had worse performance than humans. It couldn't compete and held a grudge."

"Manchi, this insect, looks generous on the surface, but is actually very greedy and stingy. It looks generous and generous on the surface, but is actually not very generous and holds a grudge."

Longbai: "..."

Manchi Overlord: "..."

Manchi Overlord : "I'm not that kind of bug."

"Don't quibble. You are that kind of bug."

Baba Lord changed the subject and said: "One level three source point is not enough, give me two more?"

"Okay. I admit it. I'm a stingy bug."

Manchi Lord turned his head to look at Longbai and continued the topic: "Longzhu Lord led the army to the expedition, and the defense force of the Lizhu Galaxy was not sufficient, so the Lizhu Chamber of Commerce did not participate in the source point search of the Amber Galaxy. I donated a level three source point, officially named the Sword God Seat, the Sword God Star Region. However, it will not be announced, it will not be displayed on the star map, and the intelligent machines of the Lizhu Chamber of Commerce will not be randomly Move around. "

"My idea is that the Amber Galaxy should be a pure survival star system for Zerg warriors. Including the Pei Diernan civilization of Star Shen'ao, and also the intelligent machines under my command, they should be hidden from the star map, and only report the coordinates to the 7th level and above Chamber of Commerce, and some 6th level Flame Spider Chamber of Commerce, and communicate and trade privately. "

"Captain Longbai, I have seen the development plan of your Xianglan Mountain. Do you plan to make do with the Black Law and transform the Tree Flower Constellation into a pure mining planet? And the Black Orchid Constellation, are you going to transform it into a treasure planet? Then you can arrange the Pei Diernan civilization of Star Shen'ao to survive in these two third-level source points. If If there is not enough space for activities, pick two more secondary source points, and a few first-level and zero-level source points as their survival planets. I will help operate here and hide them all. "

"It's not that I exclude alien races, but there should be a limit to tolerance."

"You must have visited the Liming and Lizhu galaxies and seen them, right? In the three major galaxies of the Shenshu civilization, in two of them, on most planets, there are more alien races walking on the streets than Zerg. This is unreasonable!"

"The Amber Galaxy adopts a management method similar to the White Crystal Galaxy. On the surface, there should be no activities of alien races other than Zerg."

Long Bai agreed: "Okay! No problem!"

Long Bai carefully observed Master Barba's reaction. This issue should have been communicated in advance and there was no overreaction.

Long Bai continued to change the topic and asked: "Lord Manchi, what you just said, the exchange of scientific research results means..."

Lord Manchi said: "The Lizhu Chamber of Commerce itself has built a complete scientific research system. As long as it invests certain resources, it can quickly rise to the demigod level. I also plan to take out a number of source points to build a scientific research base to cultivate people in theoretical research. Intelligent machines with potential in technology research and development are specialized in scientific research.”

"As for you, Chief Longbai, just do what you can."

"Everyone will continue to develop based on the demigod-level technology of the Wafa civilization. Remember to inform each other and share what you have learned so that we can make progress together."

Scientific research base? Long Bai knew a little bit, but was not very clear about the specific operations. However, there was no need to ask. He would just go back and ask Heifa and Xingshenao, and he readily agreed:

"No problem! I will also build a small base and invest some insect power and financial resources to try it."

Long Bai followed closely, then changed the topic and asked: "Lord Manchi, has the second phase of the star network trunk road been planned? Is there any possibility of additions and changes? At least open up the Baiwei Block first."

"Of course!"

Lord Manchi: "We are convened for a joint meeting this time. One of the important matters is to discuss matters related to the construction of the Amber Galaxy Star Network and the development of the source point. The construction of the star network will always give priority to the third-level source point..."

Master Barba looked bored and said nothing, then turned into a beam of light and rushed out of the hall and disappeared.

Lord Manchi happily sat back on his throne.

Long Bai: "..."

Long Bai suppressed his mental power and asked: "Baba Master is an omnic after all, and it is a combat omnic. Isn't his status in the Li Zhu Chamber of Commerce too high?"

"It seems so..."

Lord Manchi: "But I also heard that Lord Baba has a special origin. It existed in the last era and followed Lord Longzhu and came out of the mother planet. I don't know the details."

"oh--"

Long Bai: "Lord Manchi, let's talk about the Star Network..."

Long Bai consulted in detail about the content to be announced at this meeting.

There are three more important decisions:

First, the taxation of technological creations is consistent with that of the White Crystal Galaxy, and the tax catalog of the White Crystal Galaxy is directly used.

Second, the Amber Galaxy must also implement laws and regulations, copying the existing laws and regulations of Dawn and Dawn Galaxy.

The Lord of Time and Space has recovered from his injuries, but all his wealth has been lost. He is now personally controlling the Dawn Galaxy, amassing money crazily. Invite it over and build three "Shixuhai Prisons" to hold serious criminals.

Third, the land rent in the Amber Galaxy is consistent with that in the Li Zhu Galaxy. In the early stages of development, in order to attract more insects to settle and develop, all large and small chambers of commerce must uniformly lower rents. Starting from the year 78-500-000, the rent cannot exceed 30% of the rent in the Li Zhu Galaxy. Subsequently, it will increase by 5% every 100,000 years until it is consistent with the Li Zhu Galaxy.

This article is detrimental to the interests of all chambers of commerce. But thinking rationally and taking a long-term view, rent reduction is beneficial to the development of small and medium-sized chambers of commerce, and is beneficial to the development of the Amber Galaxy.

Long Bai didn't have any objections. After understanding it in detail, he said goodbye and left, going straight to the branch of the Shuhua Merchant Guild in Yongteng Star.

Caolong and Yudou have been stationed at the Manzhong System Store for many years, guiding the newly arrived Zerg forces to re-register with the Chamber of Commerce and open StarNet accounts. Purchase source gems, world gems, chaos rough stones, and various precious materials from them at high prices.

Received many good things.

There are many third-level raw metal materials recorded.

Save it,

Go back and ask Lord Manchi for help to tailor-make a starship for Yu Zhong with a speed of more than 1,000 times the speed of light.

After Long Bai briefly understood it, he temporarily stayed in the store managed by Lu Dou.

…

[Time: 78th Era-460 Yuan-000 Years]

Zeqi, Jubai, Summer Oak, Sishu and other insects formed a team and arrived on time to join Long Bai and attend the meeting.

The content is not complicated.

The main reason is that there are disputes over taxation and rent reduction. After negotiation, the tax catalog has been partially adjusted, and rent reduction is not subject to discussion.

No other problems.

An agreement was reached in just one day and the meeting ended.

Long Bai returned to the Lingxiao star system to check on the progress of the recovery of the Pedirnan civilization, and went to Star Sinnoh to discuss matters related to technological production in detail. (End of chapter)
