The one speaking at this moment was a Commander from Gaia Civilization.
Upon hearing him, the other commanders who had been arguing incessantly all fell silent and turned to look at him.
"Warp Engine?"
Someone in the crowd muttered quietly.
"Isn't that technology only mastered by Level 4 Universe Civilizations?"
"Yeah, it's universally recognized as technology only Level 4 Universe Civilizations possess. None of the known Level 3 Civilizations have mastered anything like it!"
"So, the ones who attacked us really were a Level 4 Universe Civilization?"
"Was it really a Level 4 Civilization? I thought Earth Civilization was secretly screwing us over!!"
"Heh... Earth Civilization? How could that be possible! At most, they're only a Level 2 Civilization! That's already giving them too much credit!"
"It can't be Earth Civilization! It must be a Level 4 Civilization! Or the New Dawn Interstellar Pirate Group Alliance!"
"That sounds more plausible. If it wasn't a Level 4 Civilization attacking us, then those pirates are the most likely culprits! They've been on the run for so many years and recruited plenty of talent. Some of their scientists are indeed incredibly capable! It's possible they developed such powerful weapons and propulsion systems..."
"..."
After a brief moment of stunned silence, the crowd began whispering and discussing matters again.
Everyone chimed in, all believing that either a Level 4 Civilization or the New Dawn Interstellar Pirate Group Alliance had attacked them.
At this moment, only the few Supreme Commanders remained silent.
"Your Gaia Civilization has also mastered Warp Engine technology, so I believe you! But... if a Level 4 Civilization attacked our camp, why did they let us go?"
After a brief silence, Ai Lan looked at Gaia Civilization's fleet Commander and voiced her doubts.
Upon hearing her, the other Commanders nodded in agreement.
