"Hand over the defense system, and we will leave."

"Gentlemen, our Carina Civilization patrolled the galaxy and later fought on the defensive lines. You are all familiar civilizations. Human Civilization has indeed not received the so-called defense system. All of this is due to someone spreading rumors behind the scenes, attempting to use you all to eliminate humanity and even weaken the power of our galactic civilization. As you all know, this message originally came from the high-level insects, and their sinister intentions are extremely malicious." Dongdong stepped forward.

" The Carina Civilization has nothing to do with this. If you anger the Hydra Civilization, we'll devour your territory as well."

"We, the Argo Navis, are members of the Star Ring Alliance. The affairs of the Alliance are the affairs of our Carina Civilization. If you want to make a move, come at me. Although our Carina Civilization is only Small Star Sector Intermediate Civilization, we are not pushovers. Whether you can devour us or not, let's see if you have the teeth to bite us."

The two sides engaged in heated negotiations, exchanging words back and forth. Neither civilization was willing to concede, except for the Flying Bear Civilization, which showed signs of backing down. The other civilizations still believed that humanity held the secret of the defense system.

The battlefield fell into a stalemate once again, with no one daring to make a move, for everyone knew how serious the consequences would be. This stalemate lasted for several months until a huge warship descended upon the middle of the battlefield; the newcomer was none other than the Yun San Civilization.

"Everyone, disperse. This farce should end. We have determined that Human Civilization has never possessed any so-called defense system; this was all a trick by the Zerg swarm."

" Lord Yun San, these civilizations have intruded into our Human Civilization's territory, causing the Star Ring Alliance to lose nearly two hundred billion warships of all sizes. This debt must be settled. Moreover, they violated the rules of the Galaxy Alliance and wantonly attacked Small Star Sector Civilization, so they must be punished. Otherwise, our Human Civilization will not accept this."

"Humans, our losses are no less than yours; it is we who should be settling scores with you," said the Hydra Civilization.

"That's what you brought on yourself. If you hadn't been blinded by greed, things wouldn't be like this now."

"Alright, stop arguing. Flying Bear Civilization, although you are not under my Yun San, you have indeed violated the rules. For now, I will leave ten complete warships for Human Civilization as compensation. As for the Hydra Civilization and Falling Star Civilization, you dared to attack inhabited planets. We will convene Galaxy Alliance meeting and expel both of you from the Alliance Space for 100,000 years as punishment! Other Small Star Sector Intermediate Civilization will be let off this time, but if they violate the rules again, they will be severely punished."

" Lord Yun San!" the Hydra Civilization cried out unwillingly.

"Shut up and leave now, or I'll wipe you out on the spot."

The Flying Bear Civilization dutifully left behind ten intact warships. After the Yun San Civilization inspected them and found no problems, Hu Yu took over control.

"Humans, although we have been defeated, never be arrogant. You did not rely on your own strength."

"Whatever kind of power it is, as long as it can be used, it's a good power. Don't be unconvinced. Also, on behalf of humanity, I thank your warships."

"Good luck to you all, and may you not get eaten by bugs later. Goodbye."

The Flying Bear Civilization led the remnants of several other Small Star Sector Intermediate Civilization back in a huff. The fleets of the Hydra Civilization and the Falling Star Civilization also began to withdraw. The inhabited planets were now safe. Hu Yu also recalled the 20th Fleet. Unless absolutely necessary, Hu Yu really couldn't bear to waste those 500 planetary cannons.

Aside from the Star Ring Alliance fleet and endless fragments, only the giant ship of the Yun San Civilization remained on the battlefield.

" Lord Yun San, isn't the punishment for them too lenient?"

" Hu Yu, do you think I should wipe them all out at once? Those are nine Small Star Sector Civilization, a vital force in the defense line. Moreover, they are not under my jurisdiction. Whether I can even kick them out of the Alliance Space in the end is another matter. The most likely outcome is that I'll just give them a reprimand and that's it."

"I understand the difficulties faced by the Great Star Region Civilization."

"You've got a good deal. Ten Flying Bear Civilization warships, if analyzed well, can allow you to enter the Small Star Sector Advanced Civilization more quickly. In addition, a huge fortune is also yours."

"Wealth?"

"Can't you see all these warship fragments scattered across the sky? These are valuable items; with a little sorting, they can be rebuilt into new warships, saving you a lot of time compared to extracting materials from planets."

"I hadn't noticed that at all. Thank you for reminding me, sir. These are indeed excellent materials. With over 400 billion warships, extracting them from planets would probably require hundreds of planets."

"Hmm, your performance this time was not bad. You won against overwhelming odds and against a stronger enemy. If you hadn't been caught off guard by the Hydra Civilization at the end, I reckon you could have shattered the sky."

"You flatter us, sir. We will know our limits."

"Haha, knowing your limits? Dare you say you didn't intend to teach the Flying Bear Civilization a lesson when you sent out your planetary cannons? If the Hydra Civilization hadn't found the location of your inhabitant planet, would you have refrained from detonating the antimatter Xuan Star Civilization?"

"I do want to teach these greedy civilizations a lesson, but I never intended to exterminate their entire race."

Greed is inherent in every civilized being, and it is also an indispensable condition for the progress of civilization. The yearning for new things and the pursuit of technology are also forms of greed. As long as we view and use greed correctly, we can naturally gain a firm foothold in this universe.

" Lord Yun San."

"Alright, many of you are old friends, and I'm sure you have a lot to say, so I won't ramble on. Goodbye."

Goodbye, sir.

"Huh? How dare you!" The Yun San Civilization warship, which was preparing to leave, suddenly moved, releasing a burst of energy that directly pulled a large warship out of the space where there was nothing but fragments.

Hu Yu recognized the appearance of this warship very well; it was the warship of the Mechanical Civilization that had recently disappeared.

"Tell me, what are you doing here?!"

" Yun San, I know you. Don't be so angry. I'm just a level 200 mechanical being. Even if you kill me, it won't make a difference. As for what I'm doing here, I'm just like you, watching the show."

"Shut up! Where is your lord? Speak!"

"Hehe, did you think I'd tell you? Actually, I came here for another reason. Our lord said that the rise of Mechanical Civilization is unstoppable. To repay your river civilization for your efforts in annihilating Mechanical Civilization, our lord has prepared a great gift, which will be delivered to you soon. We hope you will enjoy it."

After the mechanical warship finished speaking, it turned into a ball of fire and exploded in mid-air.
