The Gemini Civilization never expected that humanity would disregard the lives of hundreds of billions of people. Now, they have found themselves in grave danger. Killing so many human residents will surely incur a swift and severe retaliation from humanity. In order to control the human population, the Gemini Civilization have mobilized almost all their forces. Currently, their base only has a few hundred million warships. How can they possibly be a match for the ferocious army of humanity?
" The Fish Horse Star Civilization has provided us with Advanced Stage of Small Star Sector Civilization. All we need to do is monitor your every move. Not long ago, the Fish Horse Star Civilization sent another message: if we can use your inhabited planet to coerce you into releasing their leader, they will give us a Great Star Region Civilization warship in return."
"That's it? Where did the Fish Horse Star Civilization Great Star Region Civilization? You actually believe that?"
"We've been stuck in the Small Star Sector Civilization for too long. If a warship from a Great Star Region Civilization could analyze our data for us, we could quickly enter the Great Star Region Civilization stage. Whether it's true or not, it's worth a try. Besides, the Fish Horse Star Civilization has already given us a lot of important technologies; otherwise, we'd still be at the Small Star Sector Intermediate Civilization."
"So you're aiding and abetting evil, colluding with the Fish Horse Star Civilization, disregarding the safety of the galaxy? Aren't you afraid the Yun San Civilization will destroy you?"
"As long as we don't annihilate your race, we can withstand the wrath of the Great Star Region Civilization."
"Hand over your tech tree, and you can leave all your warships here. You can get out of here."
"No."
"One more thing, our fleet will immediately begin four-dimensional travel. You attacked first, so even if we wipe out your entire race, the Yun San Civilization probably won't say a word. Immediately!"
"Okay, you win."
Soon, the incredibly vast technology tree files of the Gemini Civilization were transmitted, and control of the more than 2 billion warships on the battlefield was transferred to human hands.
"General, do you believe what the Gemini Civilization said?" the leader of Xuan Star asked.
"Wait a minute, a guest has arrived."
Earth Four stopped sailing, and a warship landed—it was a warship from the Crystal Civilization.
"Crystal Messenger, thank you."
"General, isn't your loss a bit too great for a Gemini Civilization?" the Crystal Envoy said.
"What on earth is going on? Crystal Messenger, isn't your civilization on good terms with the Gemini Civilization?" Bi Cha scratched his head, completely unable to find an answer.
"Let me explain," Hu Yu said with a smile.
When the Gemini Civilization first arrived, and later I began to have doubts about Gemini Civilization, I immediately thought that the Gemini Civilization civilization, would never dare to invade the Alliance base, so they must have sought help. However, I was unsure whether the Gemini Civilization had a deep cooperation with the Fish Horse Star Civilization. So, during a casual chat with the Crystal Leader, I subtly inquired about the Gemini Civilization.
Unexpectedly, the Crystal Chieftain became furious. The Crystal Chieftain and the Twin Chieftain had known each other for hundreds of thousands of years. The Crystal Chieftain said that the Twin Chieftain had been neglecting his duties lately and was always engaging in crooked and wicked schemes. He also said that as long as they occasionally caused trouble for humanity, they could obtain the technology of Small Star Sector Advanced Civilization. What kind of good deal is that? In addition, the Crystal Chieftain shared the same sense of the big picture as humanity and would never make things difficult for a civilization that was wholeheartedly fighting against the Insect Race. So the Crystal Chieftain refused without even thinking about it.
This incident further confirms previous suspicions: the Fish Horse Star Civilization did not require the Gemini Civilization to maintain strict secrecy, indicating that the Gemini Civilization and Fish Horse Star Civilization only engaged in an exchange of interests and did not have any deep cooperation. Coupled with what the Crystal leader told me before, the Gemini Civilization was not lying; otherwise, the Exterminator would have rushed in and completely destroyed the Gemini Civilization long ago.
To get the Gemini Civilization to come out, I did some preparatory work. First, I designed a scaled-down version of the Exterminator, covered with Reaper -shaped armor, to mislead the Gemini Civilization into thinking that the remaining force consisted of weaker Reaper. Second, I deliberately released information that the battle with Fish Horse Star was only between humans and the Xuan Star Civilization, not wanting it to affect other Alliance Civilizations, thus causing the Alliance fleet to withdraw. Only when the Alliance base was free of other civilizations' fleets did the Gemini Civilization dare to attack.
Considering their long-standing commitment to the defenses, and the fact that they may have made a mistake due to momentary lapses in judgment, leaving them with a tech tree and a fleet can be seen as punishment.
"And what about these civilians? Are they just going to let their grievances go unpunished? Are they just going to sacrifice themselves in vain?" the leader of Xuan Star asked.
"These are not our people at all. Ten thousand years ago, I specially opened a travel route between humans and the Tree Race. Our residents went there, but they didn't return. They were just low-level humanoid biological robots controlled by supercomputers. I don't need to elaborate on how simple these machines are, right? It's easy to create trillions of them."
"So that's how it is. I was so nervous I almost had a nervous breakdown. I thought you really did kill hundreds of billions of people."
"However, it's a pity about these 30-plus planets. Such beautiful places have been destroyed. If we hadn't wanted to completely destroy the Gemini Civilization's fleet, perhaps we could have lost fewer of these planets."
"General, your guess has now been confirmed. It seems that our Crystal Civilization and the Gemini Civilization will have no further dealings with each other. Our leader said that if you can resolve this matter smoothly, our Crystal Civilization is willing to join the Star Ring Alliance. We hope that you will not reject us in the same way you rejected the Gemini Civilization."
"Of course not. Your Crystal Civilization is a righteous civilization that has been fighting the Zerg with all its might. Please convey to your leader that the Star Ring Alliance welcomes the Crystal Civilization."
The Crystal Messenger has left, and the leader of the Fish Horse Star is also disheartened. His carefully laid contingency plan has been so easily destroyed by humanity. Now, all the Fish Horse Star Civilization civilization fleets are protecting the inhabited planet in layers, as if facing a formidable enemy.
The Gemini Civilization were merely a minor incident, having no impact on the battlefield whatsoever. The antimatter star had stopped a light-year away, and the Exterminator and Purger fleets had surrounded the Fish Horse Star Civilization's escape route. With a single command from Hu Yu, this antimatter star would destroy everything around it, including space itself, leaving the Fish Horse Star Civilization with nowhere to run. However, the mastermind behind it all still hadn't revealed itself.
At this moment, Hu Yu was getting anxious. Not only Hu Yu was anxious, but the five Great Star Region Civilization were also anxious. Everyone was waiting for the mastermind behind the Fish Horse Star Civilization. Destroying the seven Small Star Sector Civilization was definitely not just about plundering some technology for the Wind Star Civilization.
Inside the Fish Horse Star, a voice rang out. "After much consideration, for the sake of civilization, I have decided to abandon you. I hope you understand."
"I would gladly die for civilization, but what about the second leader? What about all our years of hard work?"
