While the two of them were still thinking about it, Jiang Gu added another sentence and said: "Now is the time when the situation is changing. Whether you will prosper and grow with us, or become the dust of history, you two have to think carefully!"
"I suggest you two pay more attention to the war in the M35 star cluster. You will definitely be able to figure out the situation of the Star Trade Group."
"We will consider it carefully." At this time, Bai Sha and Lan Jiao also began to hesitate, not daring to offend each other.
After they returned, they immediately began to investigate the Star Trade Group's combat situation on M35. As the former chief civilization, they still have many information channels.
Marquis Yunxiao and Jianggu were right. In the M35 star cluster, the situation of the Star Trade Group was very unoptimistic.
"If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before the Star Trade Group switches from active combat to passive defense."
"For the future of civilization..." The two of them had already made a decision in their hearts.
…
One hundred and fifty years later, in the Sirius star system.
Not far from the original stellar furnace, a new artificial planet has emerged.
Its volume and mass are ten times the size of a blue star, and it rotates while orbiting the stellar furnace. In space, you can see a large number of battleships, spaceships, and robots coming and going.
He Xingzhou and the builders from the Interstellar Construction Department took a spaceship and approached the mechanical planet, where they had a clearer view.
The entire mechanical planet is busy, and every part of it is filled with precision mechanical parts and industrial equipment.
And these industrial equipment have all been transformed into silicon-based life forms by the mechanical heart!
These silicon-based life forms can not only complete their own work tasks, but also learn and evolve, improve industrial design and mechanisms, and improve production efficiency and product performance.
"Lubanxing has met the commander-in-chief and the builders." A voice appeared in their minds, and a silicon-based life form communicated directly with their brains through radio waves.
Its main body is right in front of everyone, that is, this mechanical planet, a super giant factory!
The mechanical heart is its AI carrier, which can control all other silicon-based life forms on the planet for easy management.
And He Xingzhou and others are its creators!
After the planet awakened its self-awareness, He Xingzhou named it Luban Star.
"Lubanxing, what is the construction level of the project?" He Xingzhou asked.
"Commander-in-Chief, now my body has reached 72% completion. In another thirty years, it will be completely completed." Lubanxing replied, "Now I can start the mass production of warp speed warships. The speed of building a level six warp battleship is more than a thousand times faster than before!”
It used to take them decades to build a level six warp speed battleship, but now, this speed will be compressed to a few months!
Materials, energy, and manufacturing will no longer be obstacles to Blue Star Civilization!
"The war will come soon." He Xingzhou said to the interstellar builders around him, "We must contact everyone now to start large-scale manufacturing of warp speed warships."
"Before the war breaks out between us and the third-level civilization, we must have enough star field-level battleships!"
"The worst plan is to fight three level three civilizations at the same time!"
Hearing He Xingzhou's words, the interstellar builders were shocked. Did the commander-in-chief mean that the next war would involve three wars at the same time?
In previous wars, they often fought one-on-one, and rarely one-on-two. This time it may be one-on-three, and the enemies are all level three civilizations!
"Do the sea beast civilization and the fishman civilization really want to betray the Star Trade Group?" Xie Wu asked.
"In the past 100 years or so, we have also been inviting them to join the Blue Star Alliance." He Xingzhou said, "But their attitudes are vacillating and ambiguous. I think there is a high probability that these two companies will not join us."
"The Star Trade Group is losing ground in the M35 star cluster, and has lost more than two thousand star systems so far."
"The Star Trade Group no longer has enough power to take care of us, so we are most likely to fight alone in the M45 star cluster."
"Prepare for the worst, we can't count on anyone but ourselves!"
"I understand!" Xie Wu said firmly, "We will build the strongest star field fleet before the war begins!"
Now their warp speed battleships are not as powerful and as warp speed as the star field class battleships of the Pleiades civilization, sea beast civilization and fishman civilization, but it doesn't matter!
Their weapons can also destroy each other. As long as there are enough battleships, they can still compete!
The planet factory began to be put into use to manufacture warp speed warships in batches.
During this period, He Xingzhou asked the intelligence department to strengthen monitoring of all surrounding star fields.
Warships from the Pleiades civilization, sea beast civilization, and fishman civilization appear more and more frequently in the surrounding star fields.
The Pleiades civilization directed its affiliated civilizations to attack the Blue Star civilization several times to test its strength, but was blocked by them.
…
Another hundred and fifty years have passed, during which time Blue Star Civilization and Pleiades Civilization have had dozens of collisions of varying degrees.
The most dangerous time was when the Pleiades civilization captured three star systems of the Blue Star civilization. They successfully counterattacked only after the star field-level fleet stationed by the Star Trade Group arrived to support them.
M35 star cluster, the most important station of the Star Trade Group, is also their last station here.
Marquis Yunxiao's fleet is attacking here.
This station is a ring world!
At its center is a young main sequence star. This main sequence star was built into a stellar furnace, providing light, heat and antimatter.
All the planets in the star where it is located have been decomposed, plus the material of the surrounding star systems, surrounding this stellar furnace, the Star Trade Group has created a world like a ring surrounding the stellar furnace!
On both sides of the ring, there are urban clusters, industrial clusters, and living environments similar to those on the planet's surface.
Before the technology of the fourth-level civilization, let alone the round sky and the square earth, it was possible to transform the world into a "ring belt" like this.
Around the ring world, there is a huge star gate. This star gate stands empty in the vacuum, without any ships coming or going.
"Why is there no news from the frontline fleet? Subspace communication has been interrupted!" The commander of the ring world, Yak, is anxiously waiting for their fleet to return.
"Yake, the last month!" Hossen of the Ptolemaic civilization said to him, "If they still have no news, everyone, evacuate the M35 star cluster!"
They estimated that the expedition fleet might have been destroyed.
"The M35 star cluster is our last buffer zone with the Royal Court of Orion. Without the M35 star cluster, we will face the threat directly!" Yake was still unwilling to give up. "Give me another Galaxy-class fleet, and we still have a chance!"
"Yake, you have to understand that we cannot lose more in the M35 star cluster!" Huosen reminded, "This star field needs more protection!"
"This is slow death!" Yak shouted, "This is an entire star cluster, 2,500 stars! Without them, we will be completely trapped by the Orion Court!"
"Let's go as planned." Huo Sen had no choice. They had tried their best. But those galactic nobles still had some super weapons from the former galactic empire in their hands, causing them heavy losses.
After turning off the communication, Yake was silent for a long time before saying: "Get ready to evacuate!"
"General!" The subordinates were not willing to fail, but without the support force, they were no longer the opponents of Yunxiao Hou.
The star gate opens, and in the ring world, people take the Galaxy-class battleship, enter the star gate, and return to their own star domain.
At this moment, the spatial fluctuation detector sounded an alarm.
"A space-time distortion occurred, and a wormhole was detected to be forming!"
Outside the ring world, a temporary wormhole appeared, and then, a Galaxy-class battleship flew out of it.
Along with it, there are also weapons of the Galaxy-class battleship.
A huge gravity bomb fell outside the ring world, and the gravitational balance of the entire ring world collapsed instantly. It collapsed and fell into the stellar furnace.
The stellar furnace also lost control of the star's energy due to changes in gravity, and endless plasma burst out, blowing up the entire stellar furnace.
Without any resistance, this ring world was completely destroyed. The entire star system was covered by the plasma storm and gamma ray burst when the star exploded, and everything was gone!
"The M35 star cluster, the last stronghold, has been destroyed!" The Star Trade Group immediately learned of the news. This was part of their calculations, but they did not expect it to come so quickly.
"From now on, we will lose the initiative in combat and can only defend passively!" A person in charge of the Star Trade Group sighed.
"The balance of war has tilted, and there is little hope for the future!"
"Recall the fleets stationed in other edge star fields and return them all to defend the star field."
The fleets originally stationed in other areas evacuated one after another.
The star field fleet near the Blue Star Civilization also received the order.
Huo Sen also informed He Xingzhou of this decision.
"Our defense fleet is about to withdraw. The situation in this area is bound to change in the future. The next step is up to you." Hossen said.
He Xingzhou frowned slightly and said, "Can't we stay for a while longer?"
"I have tried my best." Huo Sen said in a helpless tone, "Do you know how many resources it will consume to have a star-level fleet stationed here for hundreds of years?"
"Right now, Star Trade Group's resources are tight and we must save all unnecessary expenses."
"From now on in the M45 star cluster, you can only rely on yourselves."
Huo Sen did not hide their thoughts. Instead of hiding the Blue Star Civilization and catching them off guard, it was better to prepare them directly.
"Since you want to evacuate, I can't stop you." He Xingzhou said, "Your presence here over the years has indeed helped us a lot. I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of our civilization."
"Also, I have one more request."
"Say it," Hossen said.
"Deploy and use all the military resources of the Star Trade Group in the M45 star cluster to our Blue Star Civilization!" He Xingzhou said, "This way we can better resist the invasion of the Pleiades Society and the Orion Court."
The Pleiades star cluster has built many space outposts and military bases in the M45 star cluster. In addition, they also control many civilizations.
This is a huge wealth. If it can be given to Blue Star Civilization, the strength of Blue Star Civilization can be greatly increased!
Huo Sen hesitated and said: "When the Black Sea Civilization was still there, these resources were controlled by the Black Sea Civilization."
"After the disintegration of the Black Sea Civilization, these resources are jointly controlled by our Ptolemaic Civilization and the Night Owl Civilization. I cannot make decisions on these things."
"You have to know that these resources combined can completely arm a third-level civilization!"
"Then please ask Mr. Huosen to talk to the principals!" He Xingzhou continued, "Except for the movable battleships, you can't take anything else with you. You can only destroy or take advantage of others."
"Why don't you give it to us? It won't do any harm to the Pleiades!"
"In addition, I have investigated all the members of the Star Trade Group in the M45 star cluster. Now our Blue Star civilization is undoubtedly the strongest! We can only lead them in war!"
"This is not necessarily the case." Huosen said, "Don't forget, there is also the sea beast civilization and the murloc civilization. They have both inherited the legacy of the Black Sea Civilization. The current civilization level of the murloc civilization is level 3.2, and the sea beast civilization is level 3.3. Taller than you!"
"Those two civilizations have long been separated from the Star Trade Group!" He Xingzhou said, "If we give them resources, if they directly rebel and surrender, the Star Trade Group will suffer even greater losses!"
"Our Blue Star Civilization can guarantee that we will fight to the end with the Pleiades Society and the Orion Royal Court!"
Huo Sen thought for a while and said, "Okay, I will try my best to facilitate this matter. Just wait for my news."
"After our fleet withdraws, the Pleiades will definitely be unable to resist launching an attack. I hope you can hold on until then."
"Don't worry, our strength is not what it used to be. It's not possible to destroy the Pleiades civilization, but it's more than enough to protect ourselves!" He Xingzhou said confidently.
The weapons produced by the planet factory over the years have been deployed in various star fields. Their overall strength has more than doubled!
"Then I'll wait and see!" Huo Sen wished, "I wish you all the best!"
The fleet of the Star Trade Group evacuated, and the Pleiades civilization monitored the entire process.
"They are finally gone!" Zigu has been waiting for this opportunity for hundreds of years. She can't wait to contact other consuls, "Everyone, our chance to destroy the Blue Star civilization and occupy the entire M45 star cluster has arrived!"
In the M45 star cluster, except for the disintegrated Black Sea Civilization, there is currently no Level 4 civilization.
Whoever can control this star cluster will become a level four civilization. It is only a matter of time.
"I have received instructions from Marquis Yunxiao." Jianggu appeared in the Archon Conference Hall, "Control the M45 star cluster as soon as possible!"
"So after hundreds of years of preparation, it's time for us to show our strength!"
"The first one to be destroyed is the Blue Star Civilization."
"We have deduced tens of thousands of combat plans!" other consuls said excitedly.
"Contact the sea beast civilization and the fishman civilization and ask them to take action together."
"If we want to fight, we must completely wipe out the Blue Star civilization in one go. We must not give them any chance to fight back or escape!" Jianggu said.
Their battle this time is by no means a simple attack, but an all-round encirclement and suppression! Three level three civilizations joined forces, and the Pleiades civilization could not think of any way that the Blue Star civilization could resist them!
