"So, do you have a way to deal with this enemy now?" Zhao Chen asked subconsciously.
But the little girl didn't answer, which made Zhao Chen realize that this was just a lingering image.
Perhaps the little girl had guessed Zhao Chen's question.
She continued speaking to herself, "Faced with this threat from 'order'..."
So far, our universe has its first project, the Gaia Empire's expeditionary force.
However, apart from that information capsule, there has been no other feedback from the project so far, and it is unknown whether the expeditionary force still exists.
If we simply keep dealing with those dark legion fleets sent by the Order, the enemy will never die and will appear more and more frequently.
We will be conquered sooner or later, and our homeland will fall.
Therefore, we prepared a second plan.
We are trying to actively search for other surviving cosmic civilizations, especially the T6 technological cosmic civilization.
They wanted to form an alliance to jointly confront the threat to the order.
At the beginning of this project, there was no feedback whatsoever; all the civilization exploration fleets we sent out disappeared without a trace.
After all, we haven't mastered the true T6 technology, so we can't accurately locate other universes, and we don't have any inter-universe travel plans.
We were able to get here thanks to the legacy of the Gaia Empire, the Gaia Gate.
But just recently, we finally discovered another civilization in this space!
Zhao Chen looked curious.
Other technological civilizations?
This is absolutely a very important thing.
"You may be familiar with this civilized life form."
Because...they are the Zerg.
The little girl's words shocked Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen opened his mouth in surprise. If the little girl were in front of him right now, he might have asked directly: What kind of companions are these Zerg?
If you ally with them, you probably won't even know how you died.
"I know you'll be very surprised by this result."
After all, in our conventional understanding of the universe, the Zerg are evil beings, natural disasters that destroy everything.
The little girl paused here, a sly look on her face: "But don't we mechanical races also appear in front of various interstellar forces in this same way?"
But we can still be allies and cooperate with each other.
They can even fight side by side.
Nothing in this world is absolute.
Hearing the little girl's words, Zhao Chen frowned.
Perhaps that's the situation she's describing, but I still can't accept it right now.
Because in Zhao Chen's view, the Mechanical Race and the Zerg Race are still very different.
Although the Machine Race is at odds with major interstellar powers in the universe, that all happened before Zhao Chen came to this world.
The only war Zhao Chen ever fought with the Machine Race was when he was studying at the Starship Academy. At that time, he had his first encounter with the Machine Race fleet in order to complete a holiday mission. It was a small-scale battle involving several hundred interstellar warships.
So to be honest, Zhao Chen's hostility towards the Machine Race wasn't that great; he was more like a threatening competitor than an enemy.
But the Zerg are different.
Zhao Chen has clashed with the Zerg several times since he came to this world, ranging from battles involving thousands of starships.
Large-scale battles involving hundreds of thousands of interstellar warships, with battlefields spanning several star systems or even entire star systems!
Moreover, Zhao Chen had personally witnessed the devastation and apocalyptic scenes on the planets conquered by the Zerg.
Currently, large swathes of star systems within the Holy Radiant Empire are riddled with holes due to the Zerg attacks.
Therefore, in Zhao Chen's view, cooperating with the Zerg is dozens of times more difficult than cooperating with the Mechs.
Moreover, they have not yet communicated with the Zerg.
In the past, when facing attacks from the interstellar Zerg, we did consider communication.
However, scientists tried hundreds of methods but failed.
Ultimately, they concluded that they were completely unable to establish communication with the Zerg.
"To be honest, it was actually them who found us."
At that time, I received a message from the Zerg.
The little girl's words shocked Zhao Chen.
It has to be said that these few short minutes were even more shocking than the news Zhao Chen had received a year earlier.
The Zerg actually initiated communication?
"However, it was not a regular communication, so no records were left."
It was a form of mental communication that I directly sensed and received.
The content is a coordinate location, and the message is 'Fighting against the order, signed: Swarm'. The little girl swung her legs.
"Although it has already come, the decision of whether you go or not is up to you."
However, my suggestion is that in order to confront the threat from 'order', we need to find a way to gather any forces that can be gathered.
Even if you have a deep-seated hatred for the Zerg, you can still learn about them.
Whether you're a friend or an enemy, you can go and take a look first; you might get some unexpected and useful information.
"Now that we've discussed this, the decision is up to you." The little girl's words ended there.
The little girl's figure then disappeared.
Before Zhao Chen's eyes, the Archangel and Ah Yin reappeared.
"What did you see?" Ah Yin asked with concern.
The Archangel looked at Zhao Chen indifferently, seemingly aware of the information involved.
"So? Are you going?"
If you don't want to go.
"You can still turn back to the Gate of Gaia and take your fleet back with you," the Cherubim said coldly.
Ah Yin still looked puzzled.
She is the only one who doesn't know the situation right now.
"Where are the coordinates?" Zhao Chen asked.
The cherubim shook his head: "We don't know the coordinates."
We only know one direction because the signal comes from that direction.
We don't know how far we need to sail, or what's at the location where the signal was sent.
Is there a real opportunity, or is it just a trap?
We don't know.
Zhao Chen then asked, "If I choose not to go, how will you handle this matter?"
The Archangel snorted coldly: "Master said that we must go and see it no matter what."
My original plan was to send a reconnaissance fleet.
Unfortunately, the Dark Legion fleet has attacked again, and I cannot spare a large number of legion fleets to carry out this mission in the short term.
But I will still carry out this mission once the fighting on the front lines eases.
This is the task my master left me.
The cherubim's tone was simple.
"What exactly happened?" Ah Yin couldn't contain her curiosity and interrupted.
Zhao Chen looked at the Archangel.
The cherubim said calmly, "She has come, so she naturally has the right to know."
"Silver, if you want to know, put your hand on it."
As soon as the cherubim finished speaking, Ah Yin couldn't wait to place her hand on it.
He found himself in the same situation as Zhao Chen, standing frozen in place.
"If you want to leave, you'd better do it sooner rather than later."
"Don't let your fleet occupy our precious starport berths and block our shipping lanes." The Cherubim seemed certain that Zhao Chen and his group would choose to leave.
"So you think we won't choose to carry out this mission?" Zhao Chen countered.
The cherubim said coldly, "You carbon-based life forms are pedantic and driven by emotions."
In your worldview, the Zerg are evil beings, and you will not easily choose to cooperate with your former enemies.
Zhao Chen's lips curled up slightly. He raised a finger and shook it slightly: "I admit that what you said is partly true."
However, we also make the right choices at certain crucial moments.
I actually accepted this task anyway!
Three hours later, I was ready to leave.
The cherubim looked at Zhao Chen with some surprise.
Just then, Ah Yin woke up.
Her eyes widened in shock, and she muttered, "Order...spiritual body...immortal..."
This was essentially the same as when Zhao Chen learned that information.
"But it's you guys."
What is the current situation of the Black Great Wall defense line?
Can you hold on? Don't let me come back to find you've been taken down.
"By then, I won't be able to go back even if I want to." Zhao Chen smiled as he looked at the Archangel.
The Archangel snorted coldly: "You don't need to worry about things on the defense line."
I promised my owner that I would stay until she returned.
Both the Black Wall defense line and the Black Wall base will be under our protection.
Faced with these enemies, our Black Wall Guard fleet will never retreat a single step!
Black Wall Guardian Legion Fleet.
It seems that this is still the name of the machine race interstellar fleet stationed here.
"Would you mind telling me about the situation on the defense line?"
"How many interstellar warships did those dark legion fleet bring this time?" Zhao Chen asked.
The cherubim said impatiently, "This is none of your business."
"Your master has only authorized you to do this task; matters on the front lines are none of your concern."
She's quite a proud mechanical angel.
Zhao Chen shrugged, then asked, "Can I move freely within your base and defenses?"
The angel coldly glanced at Zhao Chen: "Don't get in the way."
After saying that, the Cherubim looked at Ah Yin: "He is preparing to carry out the task assigned by his master."
Are you staying here, or going with him?
Ah Yin finally processed all the information she had just received. She looked at Zhao Chen and asked, "Are you going?"
"Since we're already here, we have to go and take a look," Zhao Chen said with a shrug.
Ah Yin turned to look at the Cherubim: "Then I will go with them."
They were unfamiliar with this space.
I will live here for at least a while and be able to guide them.
"That's settled then."
"I have other battles to command, you may do as you please." With that, the Cherubim turned and left.
Ah Yin and Zhao Chen were left behind.
"You, my fellow countryman, really do have... a bit of an angelic personality." Zhao Chen crossed his arms, rubbed his chin with one hand, and looked at the mechanical angel's back.
I must say, the lines are quite elegant.
“That’s how it is, Ah Zhi.” Ah Yin looked at Zhao Chen: “I didn’t expect you to actually accept this mission.”
"Why do you all think I won't accept it?" Zhao Chen asked, unable to suppress a laugh.
Ah Yin said, "Because compared to us, you actually have a greater hatred for the interstellar Zerg."
Furthermore, you have engaged in numerous large-scale battles with the Zerg.
The Holy Radiant Empire and the Interstellar Zerg have a blood feud.
If at this point, the Holy Radiance Empire finds out that you are looking for the Zerg, or even want to cooperate with them.
I don't know how they will judge you.
Even how will the entire human society, the carbon-based life form society, view you?
Zhao Chen fell silent.
He gazed intently at the starry sky outside the porthole next to the main hall.
"What others think of me is not important."
But now there really is a powerful force threatening our cosmic home.
If negotiating with a tiger for its skin is the only way, then I am willing to sacrifice everything, including my reputation.
"Just to seize that sliver of opportunity!" Zhao Chen clenched his fist and said resolutely, "Of course, I'm not without principles."
If the Zerg cannot meet my standards, I still will not cooperate with them!
Ah Yin understood what Zhao Chen meant.
The host's previous video also implied that the Zerg might also have some kind of hardship, just like the Machine Race.
If that's really the case, then there might be an opportunity for cooperation.
Zhao Chen had also thought of this, so he decided to give himself this opportunity.
"When do we leave?" Ah Yin asked.
She was listening to the message left by her master and didn't hear Zhao Chen's instructions.
Within three hours.
Before that, I want to take a good look at this base.
Let's take another look at the Black Great Wall defense line.
"And those so-called Dark Legion fleets." Zhao Chen smiled and looked at Ah Yin, asking, "You don't mind being my guide, do you?"
Ah Yin smiled slightly, pointed ahead, and then led the way for Zhao Chen.
Afterwards, A Yin acted as a guide and led Zhao Chen on a tour of the Black Great Wall base.
The first thing you'll see is a vast industrial base.
"This is our Black Great Wall Industrial Base."
It is currently the largest industrial base of our mechanical family.
Because the Black Great Wall defense line cannot be breached, we simply built the industrial base here.
More than half of the strategic resources within the Machine Race's territory will be transported here to build new interstellar warships.
Here, production tasks are being carried out at full capacity.
One million interstellar warships can be produced in a single month, including at least 100,000 T4 interstellar warships and 10,000 T5 interstellar warships!
The Black Wall base maintains a garrison of ten million interstellar warships year-round.
Five million ships is the warning line.
Once the warning line is breached, it means that the Black Wall base is in a dangerous phase and urgently needs a large number of interstellar warships to replenish it.
Six months ago, the Black Wall base sent a distress message to the Mechanical Court because its garrison had fallen below five million interstellar warships.
Therefore, the Lord personally led most of the Mech Race fleet within the Mech Race territory to support the Black Wall base.
This led to a shortage of fleets within the Machine Race's territory, giving the Demon Race's fleet an opportunity to exploit the situation. "A-Yin said, pointing to an industrial base in the distance.
Zhao Chen gazed at these industrial bases.
Who would have thought that the greatest strength of the Machine Race lies here!
This is enough to prove the unwavering determination of the Machine Race to defend this line of defense!
