Inside the rapidly traveling Star-Level Shelter.
Noah was discussing with Li Chen whether an alliance with that group of Interstellar Pirates.
Was truly worth cooperating with.
When he suddenly received a message.
Host, S2K has sent a communication request and wishes to speak with you directly.
Noah looked at Li Chen with an odd expression.
"Put it through!"
"I want to ask him what the hell he's thinking! Is he trying to set us up?"
Li Chen waved his hand.
He had never ordered S2K or Noah to contact those Interstellar Pirates.
Li Chen had originally planned to wait until the war with the Empire Civilizations was over.
Before properly cleaning up the pirates within the Sixth Star Territory.
Yet now, they actually dared to come knocking on their own.
And S2K had even contacted them behind his back.
Claiming they could cooperate with Earth Civilization.
Li Chen wanted to see just what tricks he was trying to pull!
Quantum Communication was quickly connected.
The projection of the S2K Clone representative appeared before Li Chen.
He bowed respectfully to Li Chen.
"Mr. Li Chen, it has been a long time."
The other party greeted him.
"Cut the nonsense. I heard you want to bring about cooperation between our Earth Civilization and that Interstellar Pirate Group Alliance. Give me a good reason!"
"And why should I trust those pirates?"
"If you can't give me a satisfactory answer today, don't blame us for showing no mercy later. Your people can withdraw first!"
Li Chen questioned him with a veiled threat.
They had already ordered the Star-Level Shelter into Level 1 Combat Readiness.
If they failed to reach an agreement, or if the enemy could not give them a suitable reason.
Then once they met later.
Li Chen would order a preemptive strike.
