A mechanical master of a certain manga

Luo Xia originally thought that even if he involved Star-Lord, he would be released on bail pending trial at most, but he did not expect that he would be taken out directly. It seemed that he was going to meet with senior officials of Shanda Star.

Although unexpected, Rorschach was not nervous at all but rather excited. This can be regarded as a formal exchange with an alien civilization, enough to go down in history.

Perhaps because of the fear of Rorschach's metal body, even though the shackles were removed, there were still many heavily armed Nova Legion soldiers escorting him. After walking out of the detention center, Rorschach was taken to a place that looked like a government hall.

"It seems that, as expected, the more developed a country is, the larger and emptier its government departments become."

Rorschach looked at the forty- to fifty-meter-high dome and the four- to five-hundred-meter-diameter first-floor hall. Either the land on Sanda Planet was worthless, or the planet was really quite wealthy.

Of course, this judgment is still a bit arbitrary. Shanda Star is not the entire empire, but a capital star, almost similar to the relationship between Washington and the United States.

Having an entire planet as its capital shows how huge this empire is, and its population is probably countless times that of Earth.

"This is the commander-in-chief of our Nova Corps." The curly-haired fat man who was responsible for leading the way said to Rorschach.

This is a well-kept woman with platinum blonde hair. She has been in a high position for many years and has developed the aura of a superior person, making her look like a strong woman.

Next to her, there was another man wearing a Nova Corps uniform. This man's narrow face and sharp eyes looked a bit sinister, but Luo Xia had a good impression of him.

Because Rorschach recognized him, this was Thrall, the leader of the Nova Corps in the Guardians of the Galaxy movie. In order to prevent Ronan from landing, he directly used his own fighter plane to fend off the Dark Star. In the end, he died heroically for his country.

This is a strict, unsmiling, but no-compromise hero for Shanda Xing.

"Hello Commander-in-Chief, I am Rorschach from Earth. Nice to meet you." Rorschach greeted.

"Mr. Rorschach, I am also very happy to meet you. You are the third person from Earth that I have met, but the two I have met before seem to be more similar to us Shanda people." The commander-in-chief said.

From the appearance, the senior officials of the Nova Corps in front of them are no different from the white people on Earth. Rorschach is a Chinese with pure blood, so he is naturally very different from them.

Rorschach didn't care about this, but he noticed that the commander-in-chief mentioned that he was the third Earthling he had ever met.

In other words, in addition to Star-Lord, there is another Earthling who it is and this character does not seem to appear in the movie.

After a few polite words to each other, a set of tables and chairs slowly rose up from the ground in the originally empty square. Tea and snacks were even prepared on them. The surrounding environment changed and turned into a cafe in a bustling city. , and the architectural style is very similar to that of Earth.

"This is an environment we simulated based on the earth's data. I hope you like it, Rorschach." The commander-in-chief said very politely.

Although Luo Xia sat down, he was muttering in his heart, how could he, a semi-suspect, receive such high treatment. If the Shanda people are not overly hospitable, it is because they are asking for something of themselves.

"Mr. Rorschach claims to be from Earth. Your language and accent can confirm your identity. I just don't know if you have a way to return to Earth," the commander-in-chief asked.

"There should be a way, but I still want to stay on Shanda Planet for a while. If possible, it would be better to establish preliminary diplomatic relations with your empire." Rorschach said frankly.

He has no political talent, and he doesn't understand the rules of communication between interstellar civilizations, so he just expresses his thoughts directly.

After hearing Rorschach's words, the people in the Nova Corps couldn't help but smile with some suppressed smiles. To them, this seemed as funny as a child announcing "my wish."

The commander-in-chief seemed to have considered his words before saying to Rorschach: "The empire welcomes any peace-loving civilization in the universe to establish diplomatic relations with us, but the earth is not yet eligible for this qualification."

"Can I know the reason?" Rorschach asked.

The Commander-in-Chief also saw Rorschach’s character, and said without beating around the bush: “There are two main reasons. The first is that the earth seems to have not yet acquired mature technology for space navigation, and can only be regarded as a backward civilization, not one that the Universe Alliance believes in.” recognized higher civilization.”

"We will solve this problem soon." Rorschach said confidently.

The curvature engine has been tested. Although mass production is still a bit difficult, this technology is possible for mass production, so the foundation for advanced civilization has been laid.

"I also believe that the earth's technology is progressing and will reach this stage sooner or later. But the second question is a bit troublesome. There seem to be hundreds of countries on your earth."

"Yes, what's wrong with this?" Rorschach asked.

"If you want to join the Cosmic Alliance and become a member of it, the civilization you represent must have the complete right to rule at least one planet. After all, many legal provisions in the Cosmic Alliance are based on an entire planet. Your Earth There is not even a unified political power in the country, and our alliance laws cannot be applied at all." The commander-in-chief explained straightforwardly.

After saying this, Rorschach also understood.

To give an example, it is probably a city in China that has a specified number of people, and how many school-age children must support how many primary and secondary schools. This is a hard and fast rule that applies to all major cities.

But if we switch to those small African countries, their total population may not be as large as the number of people in a Chinese village. How can they use relevant laws?

For the Universal Alliance, having only one planet is the lowest standard and the weakest kind of universal civilization. The Nova Empire looked at this civilization with only one planet, almost the same way today's superpowers look at Africa.

As for Earth, I'm sorry, you can't even be considered an elementary cosmic civilization because you don't even have a unified political power.

Those relevant laws formulated for the entire planet, such as cosmic trade terms, are calculated on a planetary basis and cannot be applied on Earth at all.

Luo Xia came here to establish diplomatic relations with the Xinxing Empire on behalf of China. What about the United States?

If an international dispute of a cosmic nature really breaks out, other cosmic civilizations will use star-killing weapons to cause trouble. Could it be that the United States will jump out and say that it has nothing to do with China, so don’t attack the earth?

With such a backward civilization, anyone willing to establish diplomatic relations with you will only get themselves into trouble.

In addition to the most basic space navigation technology, the unity of sovereignty is also the first step towards becoming a true cosmic civilization. Otherwise, people really won’t take you to play.

Rorschach can handle the technology aspect, but there is really nothing Rorschach can do about the issue of political unification. It's not impossible to go back and launch a war to grind the United States to the ground, but how many people will die?

The war will not end if the President of the United States is kidnapped.

The world is not as simple as a merger of countries.

It seems that the earth will not be recognized by the entire universe alliance in a short period of time, unless there are some major changes.

However, Rorschach does not need to pay too much attention to this issue now. If it is not possible, he can transform and develop the desolate planet, establish a fire source civilization, and become a member of the Cosmic Alliance.

Many ideas flashed through my mind, and it seemed that there were still many, many modifications to the previous plan for the planetary transformation plan.

Just as he was a little lost in thought, the Nova Legion saw that the atmosphere was about the same and finally revealed the purpose of meeting Luo Xia.

The commander-in-chief said: "Mr. Rorschach, you claim to be a mutant. I have vaguely heard of this race. It seems that individual combat is very powerful. Therefore, we have a request. I hope Mr. Rorschach can help me."

"You are an advanced civilization in the universe. Regardless of technology or other aspects, what else do you need help from an outsider like me?" Rorschach asked.

"Because this matter involves your Earth, and according to the laws of the Universe Alliance, we cannot arbitrarily send personnel into your planet to affect the process of your civilization." The commander-in-chief said a little helplessly.

"As I told you before, I have met two Earthlings before me. It should be related to these two people."

Rorschach was mentally prepared, but still didn't understand what the Nova Corps needed him to do.

"Mr. Rorschach, you are indeed very smart, and it is indeed related to this matter. I wonder how much you know about our Nova Corps," the commander-in-chief asked in return.

"Sorry, this is my first time on Shanda Planet, and I was kidnapped."

Of course, Rorschach would not say, "Your Nova Legion's fighter planes and chain combinations are super cool." To expose himself in this way, it would be more appropriate to pretend to be an ignorant bumpkin.

"To be honest, our Nova Legion has a special combat force, and their individual combat effectiveness is very strong. Many years ago, one of the Earthlings joined our Nova Legion by chance and became the leader of this special force. One of them."

"Let me guess, then he ran back to Earth and hasn't asked you for leave yet, right?" Rorschach said.

"You guessed part of it right. It would be fine if you just didn't ask for leave. The equipment of this special force is made of very precious materials. It is not an exaggeration to say that it took a whole country to make it, and when he left He actually took all the equipment away. After our various investigations, we found that he had returned to Earth."

A three-dimensional projection appeared in front of Rorschach, showing the appearance and characteristics of the defected former member of the Nova Corps. Rorschach was very sure that he had never seen this person in the movie, and he didn't know if it triggered some special background plot.

"We need your help to bring us the special equipment of the Nova Corps." The commander-in-chief said very solemnly.

"He is just a member of your legion. Even if he escapes, it won't be difficult to catch him back," Rorschach said strangely.

It's like a certain special forces king. Even if he is really as powerful as the novel says, a country's army of more than one million people is enough to kill him countless times. Since the Nova Corps is the most powerful force in the empire, there must be a lot of them, and the strength of the members of that special force will certainly not differ too far from each other.

This man has been on the run for so long, how could the Nova Corps not be able to capture him?

"We cannot send troops to Earth, otherwise it will cause very serious diplomatic disputes. We have also tried hiring some cosmic mercenaries to complete this task. Unfortunately, the power of this equipment is too powerful and ordinary people cannot compete at all."

The commander-in-chief said while playing some battle video clips. Rorschach saw that there was a predator like Star-Lord inside. They are really the scavengers of the universe, and they dare to take on any dirty work.

Although there was only one opponent, these cosmic mercenaries were defeated.

The figure wearing the Nova Legion armor and a dazzling helmet could actually fly freely and shoot terrifying energy beams with his hands, with astonishing destructive power. Not only that, these energy beams can also act on himself, making him extremely powerful and almost invulnerable.

No wonder the mission failed. Few of the predators were truly strong. They only relied on equipment and numbers to engage in group fights. They would definitely not be able to defeat this kind of extraordinary combat power.

The video played for about twenty minutes, showing Rorschach the capabilities of this Nova Legion deserter in all directions, but Rorschach's expression did not change much.

The commander-in-chief of the Nova Corps on the opposite side also noticed Rorschach's extraordinary calmness, and said to him: "Mr. Rorschach, you are from Earth. With your own abilities and connections on Earth, can you help?" How can we solve this problem?”

Rorschach said without hesitation: "Of course there is no problem, but I also want to ask what price the Nova Corps plans to pay for this mission."

"Letting you return to Earth safely is the best reward, otherwise we would have thrown you into a prison for serious criminals." Thrall, the leader of the Nova Corps, spoke at this time.

The tone was cold, serious, and unquestionable, as if he was telling the truth.

In fact, the conversation has reached the stage of negotiating terms. At this time, there must be a trick to play good and bad. Regardless of whether the Shanda people are peace-loving or not, their leadership will definitely not be kind people in a pure sense, otherwise it would be impossible to rule such a huge empire.

Sal's attitude was within Rorschach's expectations. Among the people in front of him, he was the most suitable to play the villain.

Rorschach's response was also very simple. He spread his hands and said, "Then throw me into prison. I happen to be very interested in the prison system of Shanda Star and want to visit it."

The commander-in-chief could only say at this time: "As for the issue of remuneration, we can talk slowly. We have offered a reward for the target before. If Mr. Rorschach can help us complete the task, the reward amount will naturally be yours, and the price will be yours." Quite generous.”

"Sorry, I'm not short of money. However, I am very interested in the fighter planes of your Nova Corps. It would be better if you could give me one with detailed technical drawings." Rorschach directly offered his price.

"That's our national secret, how could I give it to you?" Sal roared.

"Then there's no need to talk. I only have this condition, and I won't make any concessions." Luo Xia said firmly.

These words almost stopped the topic. These Shanda people had never seen a bargaining lion open his mouth, but they had never seen Rorschach directly kill the topic like this. One bad word and the conversation will collapse.

It's not because Rorschach is reckless, but because he knows that he has no talent for negotiation, so he simply cuts through the opponent's bottom line. As for those so-called bounties, what does he need money for? Even if it is the universal currency of the Universe Alliance, it means nothing to him.

"We need to discuss it. Let's send Mr. Rorschach back first. It just so happens that he wants to visit our prison for serious criminals, so let him go there and think calmly for a few days." The commander-in-chief also looked very unhappy. Obviously Rorschach's attitude made her quite unhappy.
