I was exposed for mining on Mars

"However, due to the timely discovery, we arrived in this star system before it took control of Alpha Centauri. The fleet has left Alpha Centauri recently."

Following Cao Guolin's introduction, the Blue Star humans participating in the meeting finally learned that such an ups and downs story actually happened in a star system four light years away from them.

After introducing the departure of Fermana's main fleet, Cao Guolin continued to explain to everyone: "Now the native civilization in Alpha Centauri has agreed to participate in the joint meeting, and this meeting is based on this premise. The United Neptune Meeting that has been here.”

As Cao Guolin's story ended, a virtual planet also appeared in the center of the venue. And this planet is exactly Neptune in the solar system, which Luo Xiu has positioned as the venue.

"So that's it."

"In other words, this time it is not just a meeting with starship humans, but also the existence of another civilization?"

"No wonder, I just asked why it was held on Neptune."

Before Cao Guolin could sit down, the attendees began to discuss, and most of them began to express their own opinions on this matter.

Under the signal from Cao Guolin's eyes, Gou Wen, who was also aging, stood up, raised his hand and said, "Okay, please be quiet first."

Gou Wen has been the head of Blue Star Research Base for a long time, so his prestige in Blue Star is still very high. After Gou Wen signaled, the venue composed of hundreds of people suddenly fell silent.

And just after everyone looked at him, Gou Wencai continued to say to everyone: "You already know the reason for the Neptune Joint Meeting."

"And the reason why we are calling you here this time is to select ten Blue Star human members to participate in the Neptune Joint Meeting."

After Gou Wen stated the purpose of this discussion, everyone was suddenly shocked, ‘Ten people? ’

After understanding the number of people attending this meeting, although the conference room was still quiet, private conversations became more frequent.

As Blue Star humans who have been cooperating with starship humans for a long time, they do not doubt the purpose of starship humans like the Proxima b civilization. They have received a lot of benefits in the past, and of course they know that after forming the current alliance, they will only receive more benefits.

Now that we can no longer escape the sphere of influence of the starship humans, and technology is completely dependent on the starship humans, it is not impossible to continue to cooperate and even form a joint civilization.

Gou Wen, who had already sat down again, smiled helplessly at Cao Guolin, who was attending the meeting in an avatar next to him. He had no good solution for the nature of Blue Star humans.

Although Blue Star is now nominally a whole, each region and the divisions within the region are still competing with each other.

And it is precisely because of the existence of this kind of thinking that every region wants to have more places in its region. And how can we increase our quota? Of course it was a private alliance.

Cao Guolin, who looked like an avatar, also smiled slightly when he saw this. Having completed his task, he simply canceled his projection and stopped continuing the meeting after saying a simple goodbye to Gou Wen.

"How do you think the quotas should be allocated?" After seeing Cao Guolin leave, Gou Wencai turned to Thomas, the representative of the Americas region, and said to him.

After saying this, Gou Wen paused briefly and gave Thomas time to think.

And this Thomas is the representative of Amerik Aerospace who was once blocked by Luo Xiu using a planetary shield, and now he represents the entire American region.

When Gou Wen saw that the other party did not reply, he continued: "I know you also want more places, but the places have been set long ago and were set by the higher-ups."

Gou Wen said, and deliberately stretched out his hand to straighten the direction of the sky.

Thomas frowned suddenly when he saw this. At this time, he didn't need to ask, and he knew that the other party was talking about the commander-in-chief of the solar system defense.

Thomas has no doubts about Gou Wen's internal information. After all, the other party also has Cao Guolin, who is the head of the research base on the moon. This person is now the most dazzling existence among the entire Blue Star human race, and he can also directly communicate with the defense commander. The person who communicates.

From the information from the other party, it must be that the starship humans have already booked it.

After informing Thomas of the news he had received in advance, Gou Wencai lightly knocked on the table in front of him and said, "Okay, stop, the quota has been determined. I will announce the quota allocation for each region."

"One person from each of the five major regions and five from the Blue Star Research Base."

"Um?"

"this"

Regarding Gou Wen's sudden announcement of quota allocation, everyone was confused at first, but in the end, no one expressed any objection.

After all, the most important thing about Blue Star for starship humans now is not the five major regions, but the Blue Star research base that can continuously provide technological research and development for each other.

The vast majority of researchers are gathered here, and with the improvement of Blue Star's education level, this number is still increasing rapidly.

And the people among them are also from various regions. If it can occupy the most places, personnel from the five major regions have nothing to say.

"Okay, that's it. The regional personnel will hand over the personnel list to the research base tomorrow. We will hand it over to the starship humans together with the personnel selected by the research base."

After Gou Wen set the time for reporting quotas, the person in charge of the Blue Star Research Base stood up and left the venue.

Thomas, who was sitting next to Gou Wen, saw this and did not stop, but followed him in three or two steps. The former head of Amric Aerospace, now serving as the spokesperson of the American region at the Blue Star Research Base, of course he also wants to get a place to go to Neptune.

Although the members of Blue Star humans and Proxima b civilization were very entangled in choosing participants, a complete list of twenty people was finally released.

These twenty people will represent the two civilizations to participate in the meeting on Neptune and discuss the union of civilizations with the starship humans.

However, because the Proxima b civilization needs to sail from Alpha Centauri, the meeting is still ten years away.

During these ten years, Luo Xiu will continue to allow Blue Star humans and members of the Proxima b civilization to continue to advance in technologies such as 'strong interaction materials', 'microscopic particle carving', and the development of space weapons. His plans for the cruising fleet are also The main fleet, that is, Ferma's fleet has also been under observation.

And since Luo Xiu locked on the opponent from the beginning and locked the position of the fleet through the red and blue shift of the stars, although Ferma and the fleet are now far away from Alpha Centauri, the movement of the fleet is still in Luo Xiu's direction. Under control.

At the same time, within the Cygnus spiral arm, the headquarters of the cruising fleet has also ushered in the moment of judgment.

Of course, for the cruising fleet base camp and the omnic lifeform 'No. 1' that controls it, this is just a resistance to external invasion.

And No. 1 firmly believes that he will be able to withstand the opponent's attack and develop the cruising fleet into an existence that surpasses the Cygnus civilization itself.

As a replica of the main body of the Cygnus civilization machine, he will eventually be swallowed up and become the new controller of the Cygnus spiral arm.

But even if he could do it, it would only be after successfully resisting the invasion.

‘Discover traces of jump! ’

‘The jump location is not at the nearest star gate! ’

After the entire cruising fleet received the battle signal from No. 1, all members of the fleet focused on the star gate closest to the base camp.

However, unlike the previous opponent's habit of jumping, this time the opponent did not seem to jump through the star gate, but chose a new way to jump.

"Damn it!" At this time, No. 1 has placed a large number of 'folded' space weapons near the star gate. Now that the opponent actually uses another jump method to enter the base camp, all the preparations he made around the star gate are in vain. Done.

"Activate the backup plan and prepare the civilized ship!"

As an omnic life form, No. 1 has of course prepared more than one defense mode. In addition to blocking the star gate, nearly 500 civilized ships that were urgently built are also ready to go, and the attack target will immediately give the jump point to Locked.

These civilized ships are only equipped with neutron killing weapons and ignore external armor and thrusters. Although they cannot resist the opponent's attack and cannot move, they are still very lethal.

And they just need to attack.

"Start neutron killing!"

When the line of a ship appeared at the sudden jump point, No. 1 gave an order, and the five hundred civilized ships directly activated their neutron killing weapons, and a huge neutron plume also erupted from the civilized ships. It shoots out from the location and goes straight to the jump point.

At this moment, the brightness of the star field where the civilization ship was located increased instantly, directly lighting up the surrounding area. In addition to the light source, it also contains various types of radiation. As long as the mechanical equipment and organisms are released from it, they will disappear directly from the starry sky without leaving any traces.

For the members of the cruising fleet, the launch of this weapon is also very shocking. After all, they have never seen the salvo of neutron killing weapons from 500 civilized ships before.

But No. 1 knew that this was just a prelude to war. The real fun is yet to come.

Through the joint observation of various instruments, the Omnic Life No. 1 has been observing the jump point. It can be seen that the lines of the ship at the jump point have gradually become clearer, and the appearance of its body has been completely outlined.

'so small? One ship? ’

When the jump was almost completed, No. 1 also began to become confused.

A ship that is much smaller than conventional civilized ships in both length and width is actually the culprit responsible for destroying dozens of star gates?

And such a ship wants to directly capture the base camp of the cruising fleet?

‘Are you too strong, or are you overestimating your abilities? ’

Number 1 stared at the already revealed ship, which looked like a Blue Star cigar, and thought to himself.

At this time, the neutron plumes shot by the five hundred civilized ships were approaching the opponent at nearly the speed of light. Since the opponent's jump location is not far from the civilized ship, the neutron plume does not need to fly too long to directly bombard the opponent's ship.

At this time, the neutron plume covering an area exceeding the diameter of the Blue Star gave the members of the cruising fleet base camp a complete sense of security. In their thinking, as long as Zhong Ziyu hits the opponent, everything will be over.

Their fleets don't even have to attack according to the plan, the opponent's warship will definitely be annihilated in the sweep of the neutron plume.

But there is a big difference between imagination and reality. Although Neutron Yu is powerful, the ship that comes from the Great Spiral Arm with the intention of cleaning the entire cruising fleet base camp is definitely not an easy existence to deal with.

It dared to come here with a ship, but it definitely did not rely on courage. But, strength!

'High energy attack detected. ’

'Threat level: low. ’

‘Dark matter stance shield activated. ’

After the unknown ship detected the approach of the neutron plume, it calmly activated its own ship's shield and plunged into the approaching neutron plume.

"Hit!" In the cruising fleet, after seeing the neutron kill hitting the opponent, the members of the affiliated civilization suddenly became excited.

"Sure enough, he has no strength."

Since the neutron killing weapon easily hit the opponent, they thought that this ship would not be too strong. Perhaps those star gates were destroyed because the other party came too quickly and strangely, and did not allow the fleet stationed at the star gates to react.

"Succeeded?" Compared to the cheers of ordinary members of the cruising fleet, No. 1, who controls all civilized ships, did not show much optimism.

As an omnic, he can maintain his sanity at all times.

"The reconnaissance ship is dispatched to search the attack area and look for it."

Before the No. 1 command was completely sent out, an extremely strange scene appeared where Zhong Ziyu came into contact with the unknown ship.

The neutron plume, which should have continued forward and rushed into deep space after 'annihilating' the ship, stopped abruptly at the location where the ship had been.

This situation was not seen by not only the members of the cruising fleet, but also by No. 1, who had conducted many tests on the civilized ship.

Can light also be cut off?

This is the doubt of all members of the cruising fleet, and also the doubt of Omnic Life One.

But the unknown ship that 'cut off' the neutron plume and continued to move forward would not explain this theory to the cruising fleet.

This unknown ship fully opened its dark matter position shield, resisting the attack of the neutron plume, and was heading towards the base camp.

For the members of the cruising fleet, who cannot understand dark matter technology, they only feel that this is like a miracle. Being able to advance with the attack of neutron annihilation, what else can it be but a miracle?

But for this unknown ship, this is just an ordinary thing.
