The Remnants
"The Perseus Commonwealth? A bunch of rabble. They're not even qualified to risk their lives to hold off the Electron Warship. At most, they can deal with some of the Harvester Civilization's conventional forces, since they outnumber them." The Silver Heart Alliance made no attempt to hide some of its plans from the Silicon-Based Collective.
"If you say this to my face, can I assume that you'll say the same thing to me in front of the Perseus Commonwealth?" The Deformed Metal representing the Silicon-Based Collective created several ripples of Gravitational Wave.
"No need to think otherwise, we've already said that," the Silver Heart Alliance warship responded, its voice echoing through space and time.
They seemed quite certain that the Deformed Metal sphere representing the Silicon-Based Collective would not make another move, and indeed it did; this statement did not even elicit any further emotional fluctuations from the Silicon-Based Collective.
"So you guys go yourselves? We're not going anyway." Millions of years seem unable to erase the shadow that the Silicon-Based Collective cast on Electron Warship in their minds back then.
Are we stupid enough to deal with the Harvesters's Electron Warship ourselves?
The Silver Heart Alliance warships did not respond to the question of whether they would personally deal with the Electron Warship. Instead, they shook space and time and said, "Of course we don't expect you to be able to face the Electron Warship head-on. You don't need to know who will deal with them. You just need to know that this time we are at least 50% confident."
"Is the five-fold confidence the confidence to hold back the Electron Warship and then eliminate the conventional forces of the Harvester Civilization, or the confidence to eliminate the Electron Warship?" the Silicon-Based Collective asked rhetorically, its spacetime reverberating.
This way of communicating seems like two people talking face to face, but a more vivid analogy would be two people on opposite sides of a lake, slapping the water in front of them with their hands. They use the ripples on the water to communicate. The difference is that neither of them needs to wait for the ripples to reach their bodies to understand the other's meaning. Instead, they understand each other's meaning as soon as the ripples appear because they have eyes that are constantly watching the water around each other.
This "eyes watching" actually refers to the detection technology they have mastered beyond ray tracing.
After Quantum Entanglement -based Hyperdistance Communication was rendered invalid by some entity altering the physical rules, these New Generation Civilization in the Milky Way Galaxy mastered such communication and detection methods.
This is also a highly efficient communication method that these advanced civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy have long accepted, and its effects are quite good.
"Of course, it's about destroying the Electron Warship." The Silver Heart Alliance responded without batting an eye. Oh, and from the spacetime vibrations emitted by a warship, the Silicon-Based Collective couldn't discern any emotion from them either.
"Based on our Silicon-Based Collective and your Silver Heart Alliance, plus the Community? Oh, and that Extragalactic Civilization civilization you mentioned, have you already made contact with them, and they've agreed to cooperate with you and are willing to confront the Electron Warship head-on?"
After a pause, spacetime was once again shaken by the Deformed Metal representing the Silicon-Based Collective: "Heh, I understand. Either you didn't contact them at all, or you did but you definitely didn't tell them the truth."
The statement that "the truth wasn't told" refers to the description of the Harvesters's Electron Warship.
The Silicon-Based Collective believed that, given the Silver Heart Alliance's consistent modus operandi, even if they had exchanged information, they certainly wouldn't reveal all the details they knew about the Electron Warship.
After all, they are a civilization from Extragalactic Civilization, and one that has only recently arrived in the Milky Way Galaxy. They certainly don't know much about the situation here in the Milky Way Galaxy, which is indeed the easiest stage to deceive them.
"Of course it's them, but we've only discovered their traces; we haven't had any contact with them." The Silver Heart Alliance's statement was true; they really had only discovered the civilization from Extragalactic Civilization and knew their area of activity.
They didn't even know that the civilization was called the Awakeners.
"So, you were the first to contact me?" The Silicon-Based Commonwealth rippled through spacetime. "I understand. You called me, along with the Perseus Commonwealth, to go find that civilization from Extragalactic Civilization."
In reality, the relationship between the Silicon-Based Collective, the Silver Heart Alliance, and the Perseus Commonwealth is not good. Under the strong pressure from the Harvesters, they even have the intention to eliminate each other.
Cooperation would probably only happen when facing the Harvesters together, like this time.
However, this time was somewhat special, as there was the added fact that an Extragalactic Civilization had arrived in the Milky Way Galaxy. The Silver Heart Alliance seized this opportunity, feeling confident that it could once again unite the three factions to face the Harvesters together.
The Silicon-Based Collective then shook spacetime again. "I'm very curious, why are you so confident in an Extragalactic Civilization? If you don't explain this clearly, I don't think there's any possibility of cooperation between us. And are you so certain that they will definitely cooperate with us?"
The Silver Heart Alliance responded calmly, "They will cooperate with us because they have no other choice, that's for sure, since they most likely possess Characteristic Technology. We've discovered that their warships mostly appear as single ships, rarely in fleets, which is completely different from typical Level Six Civilization."
"As for confidence, it certainly doesn't come solely from this Extragalactic Civilization that has only recently arrived in the Milky Way Galaxy. You're curious about where our confidence comes from, right? We can tell you now. This time, besides us, the Perseus Commonwealth, and that Extragalactic Civilization, there's also a Zerg civilization, a Gaia Consciousness, and finally, the Remnants."
"There are the Remnants?! The Remnants? You actually found the Remnants?" The Deformed Metal representing the Silicon-Based Collective was extremely surprised.
The Silver Heart Alliance mentioned three entities: the Zerg civilization, the Gaia Consciousness, and the Remnants.
However, compared to the previous two, the Silicon-Based Collective is clearly more concerned about the existence of what is called the 'The Remnants,' as can be seen from the urgent information conveyed by the time-space ripples.
"Of course, but you'll need to go and ask, because in a sense..."
"Shut up."
The Remnants were familiar with the variant representing the Silicon-Based Collective. It was a first-generation stellar life form that called itself the Child of the Universe and had existed for an unknown amount of time. However, that family was extremely arrogant and looked down not only on Carbon-based life but also on Silicon-based life.
In his words: You are all Children of the Stars, and I am the star.
Clearly, the title "The Remnants" was merely a designation given to him by other civilizations, not his own self- the Remnants.
Both the Silver Heart Alliance and the Silicon-Based Collective are aware of this, but neither of them likes to call them the Child of the Universe.
