From black technology to super engineering

Karatu galaxy, the thirteenth planet, Antura. (See chapter 584 for galaxy overview)

Although it is far away from the main sequence stars, the temperature on Antura is not too low, kept at about zero degrees. This is not only because there is a small amount of atmosphere on it, but also because the Karatu galaxy has three stars, and Antura is currently Because it is at the perihelion of the K3 star.

This small amount of air cannot support the reproduction of life—after all, every few hundred years, Antura will enter the aphelion, and its temperature will be as low as minus one hundred and eighty degrees at that time, and no life can survive.

Therefore, for a long time, the Kerong people have treated it as a resource-based planet. If the conditions are good, they will come up to dig two hoes if necessary, and if the conditions are not good, they will leave it alone.

Now is the time when conditions are good.

...

A large forward base is hidden in a huge mountain more than 2,000 meters above the ground.

The base started construction four years ago, and it was not fully completed and put into use until some time ago.

In front of the base is a canyon that looks like a river, surrounded by undulating mountains. On the flat ground of the canyon, countless large-scale construction machinery is stepping up construction, and the prototypes of factories continue to meander along the mountain wall.

Going up the mountains, warships waving totems with teeth and claws scattered all over the sky, covering a small half of the space, facing the fleet on the opposite side of the planet.

Here is the last forward base of the Tara people on the planet Antura.

At this time, a battleship pierced the sky and slowly landed in the canyon.

The hatch opened, and several Tara people wearing oxygen masks walked quickly to the base.

With the gates of the base closed, Flack took one last look at the setting sun behind him, pulled down his mask, and strode towards the oncoming base commander.

"Frack."

"Hynix."

The two saluted each other first, and then hugged each other friendly.

"My old buddy, you have worked hard." Flack looked at his old friend who had already grown gray hair, shook his head and said with emotion: "I remember you were not like this before."

"Hiding in a ravine and digging a tunnel, with the main cannon flying around above your head, and you have to worry about the Krong people sending ground troops behind you... Do you think it's hard work?" General Hynix smiled and patted Flack on the shoulder. : "Go, go in and drink tea."

"good."

With the sound of kicking, everyone entered the depths of the base together.

After entering Hynix's office, Flack laid his abdomen on the bench, and felt relieved when his feet left the ground. He picked up his teacup and looked at his old friend with a smile: "By the way, I'm still here this time." I want to tell you good news."

"What good news?"

"You're going to hold your grandson when you go back."

"Huh?" The base commander was stunned for a moment, and then his face beamed with joy, but immediately, his face showed a bit of surprise and a bit of seriousness. Two seconds later, his brows frowned, and his eyes became sharp. : "You mean the Senate let me go back?"

"Well... the Senate does mean that."

"Damn it! I managed to open up the situation here, now let me go back?" Hynix became angry, and slapped the teacup on the table: "Why do I go back? Stab those grandchildren's PY?"

"Cough..." Flack knew the character of his old friend, coughed immediately, and quickly explained: "Old man, don't be angry."

"You are not angry, you come!"

"Well... I'll do it." Flack nodded naturally.

Hynix was stunned for a moment, looking at Flack in disbelief: "What did you say?"

"I said, they asked me to... be in charge of the entire Karatu galaxy." Flack didn't wait for the other party to get angry, and he immediately added: "This... is actually not what the Senate meant."

"Is that what you mean?"

"No, it's the order of the Wisdom Mother." Flack stared at Hynix and exhaled softly: "Man, and...humans have come here, we have to deal with them."

...

Watching his old friend leave in anger, Flack sighed and picked up the teacup on the ground, then got up and walked towards the central control computer.

But standing in front of the computer, he fell silent again, staring at the computer, unable to input commands for a long time.

Since a few months ago, he intercepted a spaceship claiming to be the Kra people in another pioneering galaxy, got acquainted with the human race, and obtained long-distance communication technology from humans, his status in the entire empire has continued to rise , not only entered the Senate, but was also trusted by Wisdom Mother.

Of course, these are good things.

But he vaguely noticed something unusual.

Wisdom Mother seems to know humans well and... trusts them too.

For example, this time, Wisdom Mother directly issued an order for him to lead the support fleet into the Karatu galaxy, but he did not take the opportunity to launch a coordinated attack with the remaining fleet. The support fleet arrived, and the two sides faced off again.

What's the difference between this and a dog barking but not biting?

You know, your own fleet came through the star gate, if you don't take the initiative to seek fighters, then you will be the one who suffers if you survive.

That’s not even counting, the most important thing is that the human fleet is also in the Karatu galaxy, and even when I arrived, the first fleet of the Krong people was still confronting the human fleet—this didn’t seize the opportunity, Zhi What did mother think?

Of course, he believed that Mother Wisdom must have her own analysis and logic. After all, for so many years, Wisdom Mother has been guiding the development of Tara civilization and has achieved incomparable achievements.

It's just that he really couldn't figure it out.

And now... Wise Mother put him in touch with humans again.

After being silent, Flack sighed again, then turned on the computer, and then turned on the remote terminal.

After a while, the face of the human Daliji appeared on the monitor.

"Your Excellency, Da Lisi." When Flack saw Ye Ming, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's been a long time, don't you come here all right?"

In the picture, Ye Ming also smiled and congratulated: "General Flack, congratulations on your promotion."

"Same joy, same joy, may I ask... Are human beings also interested in Krong people?"

"We are not interested in the Krong people, but we are interested in the Karatu galaxy and the Antura star."

Flack was taken aback, his eyes flashed sharply for a moment, and then he laughed instantly: "Humans won't form an alliance with the Krong people, will they?"

"To be precise, our three civilizations are about to form an alliance."

Flack's pupils shrank in an instant!

soon?

When did humans negotiate with the Senate?

Why doesn't he know?

"One week later, humans, Tara people, Kerong people, and our three parties will negotiate on the flagship of the Auriga battleship."

In the picture, Ye Ming's expression gradually became serious: "In the Karatu galaxy, there can be no more meaningless wars."

Flack inhaled PY instantly: "This is..."

"This is the suggestion that is most in line with the interests of your civilization and the future. I believe your wise mother will definitely support it."
