Start sweeping the universe by rubbing the CPU with your hands.

A message was sent from the Genting Celestial Palace of the Blue Mountain Civilization and arrived in front of the offices of the heads of the five major fourth-level civilizations. It was also sent from the heads of state's offices and arrived in front of the five fleet commanders of that desolate galaxy.

At this moment, the space carrier of the sixth-level civilization has once again responded to the call and appeared in the galaxy. Our own huge fleet has also started the login process again, and now almost one-third of the warships have entered the berth.

The commanders all grimaced.

Although our relationship with the Level 6 Civilized Space Carrier is only a business partnership and does not involve anything else at all. If one party breaches the contract and agrees to use it but no longer uses it now, it only needs to pay liquidated damages in accordance with the requirements of the contract.

Level 6 civilization will not pay attention to anything other than the terms of the contract.

But... that is the intelligent life of a sixth-level civilization after all! It's okay to breach the contract once, but now that we have to breach the contract for the second time, will the noble intelligent beings of the sixth-level civilization think that we are playing tricks on them?
If there is a need for cooperation in the future, will they secretly try to trick me? Although it won't affect the overall situation, it is enough to make myself uncomfortable.

But there is no way, the decision was made by the head of state, and we can only implement it.

With trembling thoughts, the five commanders jointly sent a message to the crew of the space carrier: "Dear founders of civilized and intelligent life, for some reasons, we have to cancel this voyage cooperation again. We will pay Liquidated damages..."

"it is good."

Unexpectedly, the reply came very quickly, without any hint of dissatisfaction.

Several people breathed a sigh of relief and quickly directed the soldiers to maneuver the battleship to leave the berth.

After a hurried operation, most of the more than 200 warships that had entered the berths left, leaving only the last less than warships still on the space carrier.

The process went as usual, and nothing unexpected happened. The commanders finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay..."

Just when the commanders were still rejoicing, suddenly, in the process of leaving the berth, a warship seemed to have lightly touched the armor of the space carrier due to an operational error.

In the past, this was nothing. After all, it was a creation of a sixth-level civilization, and it was impossible for it to be damaged just by a light touch.

But this time it seems different. The commanders saw a sudden burst of fire from the collision, which suddenly grew in size and instantly swallowed up less than 200 warships that finally tried to escape from their berths.

The fire disappeared, and the less than 200 warships had turned into an empty shell. The battleship was completely destroyed, and the soldiers inside were already dead.

"what's the situation!"

The commanders' hearts suddenly lifted. The next moment, I received a message from the air and space carrier crew: "Due to your operational error, our weapon system was accidentally touched, and the weapon system was activated, which affected your warship.

The responsibility for this accident lies entirely with your misoperation, and you will be responsible for all consequences. At the same time, the accidental activation of our weapon system also caused certain losses to us. After the damage is determined, we will negotiate with you in a civilized manner and you will make compensation. "

The commanders were filled with bitterness.

Just a small collision triggered your weapons system? You wouldn’t lie to a child like this.

This is clearly a trick on us...

But, where can I go to reason? After all, it was my own operational error that made the first mistake. What's more, although a sixth-level civilization does not interfere in the affairs of lower-level civilizations, it would lead to a lawsuit with a sixth-level civilization? A leopard with a bear's heart wouldn't even dare to eat until he dies.

The commanders swallowed their anger and once again made a humble reply: "I'm sorry for the losses caused to you due to our mistakes. Please rest assured that all losses will be borne by us."

As for the approximately 200 warships and the more than soldiers who died innocently and tragically, they were not even mentioned.

After receiving the reply, the Level 6 Civilized Space Carrier did not send any more messages. Instead, it simply entered the super-light speed navigation mode and left directly.

……

On Earth, Luo Zhaoyangdong’s figure appeared again.

"Our intelligence shows that in the galaxy where the five major level-4 civilizations are stationed, the space carriers of level-6 civilizations have disappeared."

Han Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

Having just experienced the Yunguang Galaxy War, our side is really not ready to start another large-scale war at this moment. And, our side has finally fulfilled its promise to Luotu Civilization.

Once the coalition forces of the five major fourth-level civilizations come, the Luotu civilization will be very passive. The Luotu civilization has been passive, and it is tantamount to breaking the promise. It is not known how much it will cost to appease the anger of the Luotu civilization.

Fortunately, everything developed as planned and expected.

"We have fulfilled our agreement. Happy cooperation."

“It was a pleasure working with you. Looking forward to serving you again.”

Luo Zhaoyangdong stood up, bowed politely to the ruling committee members, and disappeared the next moment.

Communication was cut off, and smiles appeared on the faces of the ruling council members.

In any case, this incident has finally come to an end.

Human beings have gotten what they want, Luo Tu civilization has got what they want, and the five major fourth-level civilizations have also temporarily gotten what they want - at least the trade interests are preserved for you, you say so.

Looking around, it seems that only Yunguang Civilization has lost profits.

But it is kind enough to allow you to still exist. You will be content with the mere loss of trade benefits.

At least, the legal representative of Yunguang Civilization at this moment, Head of State Lotta, is very satisfied with this.

As long as my position is secure, is a 10% trade profit nothing? Anyway, no matter how much profit is given, it will only come from those lowly idiots. It has nothing to do with me.

Not only that, but the 10% trade profit concession doesn’t give me another reason to raise taxes? Just for this reason, I searched hard again. As for how much they plundered in the end and how much they handed over, those idiots didn't know. At that time, the money of officials and rich people will be repaid in full. After all, everyone is in the same group, and the money of the poor will be divided into 30 and 70 parts...

After fantasizing about the wonderful life in the future, Lotta couldn't help but grin and laugh.

After smiling for a moment, the smile disappeared again, and he even started to feel sad again.

"Hey, the five major fourth-level civilizations want to start withdrawal negotiations with human civilization and help our Yunguang civilization regain its independent status... Why do you think these people are so full?
Our Yunguang Civilization is living so well now, we don’t need you to worry about it. Humanity? Humans are our benefactors. I wish the human garrison could stay here for a long time.

It’s really, really annoying…”

Lotta sighed deeply.

He switched between these two emotions repeatedly, sometimes happy and sometimes sad.

On the human side, the ruling committee members were completely happy.

In any case, this time the Yunguang Civilization was completely eliminated, and our gains were huge enough.

The arduous struggle that lasted for hundreds of years, the war clouds that lasted for hundreds of years, the heroic sacrifices of millions and tens of millions of soldiers, countless scientific researchers, countless workers, countless ordinary people, the total number of the entire civilization Hundreds of billions of people are united as one, and have put in countless hard work. At this moment, they have finally reaped fruitful results.

Winning a strategic buffer period that lasts for at least several decades - The reason why the human side issued an announcement to leave room for negotiations was apparently to eliminate the excuses of the five major fourth-level civilizations to launch a war, but in essence it was just to delay time. , just to win the strategic buffer period - just the most insignificant of these gains.

He took full control of the Yunguang Civilization and took possession of the 254 billion silver coins accumulated in the Yunguang Civilization's treasury. In one fell swoop, he got back the silver coins used to purchase technology from the Yunguang Civilization in the early stage, and saved the Yunguang Civilization for at least several hundred years. The wealth accumulated over time was robbed. Although this harvest was huge, it was nothing.

Even after taking control of Yunguang Civilization, he can get huge profits from Yunguang Civilization every year, at least 200 million silver coins every year, which can be said to be a steady stream of financial resources, but it is nothing.

——Even if the profit concession is 10% to trading parties, Yunguang Civilization's biological products industry still has considerable profits. The most important thing is that for this set of industries and the cost of foreign trade, only Yunguang coins need to be paid internally. What is collected from the outside world is silver coins.

Obviously, all silver coins collected from the outside world belong to human civilization. The Yunguang coins that need to be paid internally will be paid by the Lotta government.

As for internal economic expansion, currency devaluation, etc., that has nothing to do with us humans. If you Yunguang people can't survive anymore, go to your government. You can't find us humans to blame.

In Han Yang's view, the most significant gain is actually another thing.

There are several billions of scientific research experts and technical talents at least level 4.7 in Yunguang Civilization, as well as all the technical data accumulated by Yunguang Civilization after tens of thousands of years of development.

As long as all this can be digested, human civilization will immediately reach around level 4.3 civilization from the original level of around 4.7.

However, level 4.7 civilization is already qualified enough to conduct preliminary research on the dark force theory! It can even be said that becoming a level 4.7 civilization has already touched the threshold of a level five civilization!

Although it is just a threshold, this result is still remarkable enough.

Generally speaking, relying on the absorption and digestion of technology from other civilizations to achieve improvement will have a serious impact on the scientific research potential of one's own civilization, basically losing the possibility of continued improvement. But for human civilization, this hidden danger naturally does not exist.

However, how many civilizations are there in the entire galaxy, and how many are level five civilizations? How many people can touch the threshold of level five civilization?
Most of the fourth-level civilizations only relied on accumulating silver coins and painstakingly buying technological data to upgrade to the fourth-level civilization. They even exhausted the development potential of the civilization itself and could not recover for thousands of years. They could only survive in 4.1. , the 4.2 level is struggling.

This is the harvest that is more important in the eyes of the ruling committee members than the strategic buffer period, huge silver coin wealth, and long-term stable financial resources.

Even with this one gain, it is worth ignoring all the other gains.

"The war is over. Through the following negotiations, we can strive for at least 50 years, and as long as hundreds of years of peaceful development. Then... let's digest our gains."

Changes in the external situation immediately brought about changes in internal policies.

Under the orders of the ruling committee, interstellar navigation is still strictly controlled. After all, the risk of war has not been completely eliminated, but navigation within the star system and between different planets is completely liberalized.

Ordinary people who have been trapped on the surface of the planet for hundreds of years can finally take a free spaceship to embark on an interstellar journey.

What followed was a large-scale surge in interplanetary navigation. Demands for interstellar travel, interstellar family visits, and private interstellar trade quickly emerged. The private spacecraft industry also prospered unprecedentedly.

Materials are further circulated and the social atmosphere is further liberalized, allowing the entire civilization to prosper.

Ordinary people are enjoying this rare time of peace. The soldiers and fleets have withdrawn to the mainland of the galaxy. They no longer need to be ready to fight at any time. However, the most critical group of people in the development of civilization, scientific researchers, have always maintained a fighting state.

It is necessary to completely absorb and digest the huge amount of technological data from Yunguang Civilization in the shortest possible time.

Fortunately, this time is different.

In the past, the lecturers sent by civilization who bought and sold scientific and technological data all looked arrogant and gave perfunctory lectures. They were impatient if they asked more questions and wished they had finished their work earlier.

Human scientists can only learn something by swallowing their anger and lowering their profile.

But this time, it was the Yunguang scientists who knelt down and begged the human scientists to learn from them. Not only did they describe every technical detail in detail for fear that human students would not understand, they also welcomed questions after class. If there were fewer people asking questions, the Yunguang scientists would be sad.

There is no way, the KPI is there. If you fail to complete the teaching tasks and teach human students, you will not get enough Yunguang coins. Without enough Yunguang coins, how can we maintain our lives?

Besides, humans are the victors, and we are the losers. No matter how brave you are, you wouldn't dare to be cold-hearted to these conquerors.

The most important tasks during this period of peace have been to quickly digest technology, carry out internal rectification, and accumulate strength to prepare for a larger-scale war.

In addition, Han Yang also seized this opportunity and publicly released an announcement through the official account of Human Civilization.

The content of the announcement is very simple. It just declares that from now on, human civilization will provide security protection for a total of five third-level civilizations: Ziyun Civilization, Hematie Civilization, Yuanshan Civilization, Phix Civilization, and Motan Civilization. The content is: Ensure that the above five civilizations are not threatened by any strange life.

It is said that it only protects against the threat of strange life, and it still maintains its attitude of not intervening in the wars of low-level civilizations. However, with this statement, how can any blind third-level civilization or even fourth-level civilization dare to deal with it? How many civilizations are there? (End of chapter)
