Robben motioned to the scientific director of the Lanikea behind him to install temporary projection equipment in order to introduce the situation of the four spiritual core mines. Taking advantage of this gap, Li Liang unfolded the goblin's surrender letter.
"Send the letter.
On behalf of the Grandmother of the Eldar Protoss and the Grandmother's House, we hereby accept that on November 9, 3027 (human solar calendar), the Central Imperial Dynasty, the Council of the Sacred Carbon-based Alliance of Terunsa, and the Lord's Palace of Makosik City, The four clauses drawn up by the Twin Temples of Humanity in the City of Avalon, and the appendices later proposed by the Federation of Law and Order, were collectively referred to as the United Legion by the above-mentioned five powers.
We hereby declare that the Eldar and all armed forces in the area under the jurisdiction of Avalon City of the Eldar surrender unconditionally to the United Legion.
We hereby order all armed forces of the Eldar and Elune folk to immediately cease any acts of hostility in order to deal with and rescue damaged ships, military and civilian property, and to comply with the instructions of the Supreme Commander of the Combined Legions. and all edicts issued by his grandmother's cabin under his supervision.
…”
This letter of surrender was recorded on the tanned leather of a certain creature, in five copies. Except for the title, which was automatically translated, the main text was written entirely in Chinese characters according to the format used by humans. There was also a tree-shaped imprint of my grandmother's wooden house at the bottom. , as well as the signatures of representatives of the five parties.
Among them, the one who signed on behalf of mankind was the supreme commander of the Human Expeditionary Corps: Robben Zhuos Li.
Throughout the text, the goblins paid a huge price for this war of aggression. In addition to the obvious spiritual core, spiritual core mine, and concession, it also included the transfer of many sovereignty, such as the consular jurisdiction of the concession, and the four parties of the United Legion. It has the right to establish a one-way long-distance teleportation gate in Avalon City, which can transport troops at any time in the future.
However, among the parties who shared the fruits of victory, the war-torn humans received the least compensation. This was especially evident in the number of spiritual cores and the distribution of spiritual core mines.
Strength determines the right to speak, and Li Liang has already foreseen this situation.
In human history alone, this kind of thing has happened many times. When the great powers divided the world, they never considered who suffered the real suffering. There was no reason to explain. It was precisely because he had a premonition of this that he did not hesitate to expose the demigods. With his identity as a Taoist sword, he rushed to Avalon desperately and tried his best to show his power.
No matter what, he wants to gain some capital for mankind at the negotiating table.
Fortunately, I made many friends during my last trip to the spiritual world. No matter what the purpose, they always played a role at the critical moment, and Robben, the group and Zero One also lived up to the trust of mankind.
"Nordrassil Council" is a huge alliance with complicated internal interests. With the strength and status of humans, even if they are nominally entitled to get the share of the goblins, they will encounter various obstacles in actual operation. In the end the gain outweighs the loss.
The current acquisition of four independent spiritual core mines and more than 100,000 spiritual cores has exceeded expectations, bringing a fairly good start to the expansion of human territory.
At this time.
The projection equipment started working, displaying a holographic image above.
Zero One stood in front of the image, looked around and said: "The following introduces the first spiritual core mine."
The image flickered, and a blue planet appeared.
"This is the earliest spiritual core mine we are sure to get. It was named 'Ernino' by the elves. In the elven language, 'Ernino' means 'plant that cannot resonate with Elune'," as As she spoke, the image continued to zoom in, showing the continuous oases and oceans on the planet's surface.
"Only one planet in the Enino universe has given birth to civilization. 15.2% of the planet's surface is land composed of continents and islands, and the remaining 84.8% is covered by water. The polar regions are also covered by ice, and the atmosphere is mainly composed of nitrogen and oxygen. Composed of two natural satellites, the planet orbits the main sequence star for approximately 375.25 days..."
Dr. Xisen was surprised: "It's very similar to the earth."
"Yes," Zero Yi waved his hand, and a man and a woman appeared in the image. They were tall and thick. The man was naked and the woman was wearing some kind of colorful animal skin. "These are the Enino people who live on the islands near the equator of the planet. In the world, the social structure is close to the matrilineal clan of the human Neolithic Age. The goblin supports the clan leader who combines humans and gods and controls the clan council. It is one of the oldest spiritual core mines owned by the goblin."
A bunch of savages...
Li Liang asked: "Where is the mine?"
The image quickly zooms in, showing a vast galaxy.
"The goblin ore ship penetrates deep into the El Niño universe, swallows galaxies through 'condensation', and creates spiritual cores. It has currently consumed 45% of the total mass of the El Niño observable universe."
Dr. Sisson murmured: "The Enino people don't know that their universe is being plundered."
"Yes, their social structure has always stood still."
Everyone instantly understood what this meant. The goblins only needed spiritual cores and an obedient "government" to deal with the Parliament of Law and Order. Those "geniuses" who could promote the progress of civilization would probably only die.
"The following introduces the second spiritual core mine. The elves call it 'Gaias Stole'. In the elven language, this name means 'argon gas'."
As soon as Zero Yi finished speaking, the image changed, revealing a bare gray planet with a smooth surface and no atmosphere, rotating at an extremely fast speed.
"There is only one planet in the Gaias Stoll universe that has life. This planet and dozens of dwarf planets and dust belts surround a neutron star to form an independent field of view galaxy. A kind of mechanical life was born in the mantle of the planet. .”
A short robot appears in the image. It stands upright and has four thick mechanical legs on its lower body. Its arms are very slender. They are covered with some kind of white film. The complex mechanical structure under the film can be vaguely seen. The most conspicuous thing is that its chest There is a silver-white cylindrical tank in front, with a hose extending from the top of the tank and connected to its "head".
The "head" is only the uppermost part of the body. It is flat and oval in shape. It has no neck and is directly attached to the body. It does not look easy to rotate. There is a circular "lens" embedded in the center of the "face". , apart from that there are no other similar "facial features" parts, only some etched patterns.
"The Gaias Storians are composed of a 'Dasettt' metal..."
Cain interrupted: "What metal?"
"'Dasettt' is a metal that does not exist in the human universe. The translator cannot translate it correctly and gives garbled codes. In addition, the elves' records of the evolution of Gaias Stolle civilization are filled with a large number of words that cannot be translated correctly," Zero One shook his head, "Their universe and the human universe just look similar."
Li Shuang smiled and said: "This is normal. When the universe emerges, if there is a slight change in the intensity of the Higgs field, the entire universe will become completely different."
Dr. Sisson nodded in agreement.
"Continue," Li Liang reminded.
"Okay, the Gaias-Storians are made of 'Dasettt' metal and rely on argon gas to sustain life. Argon comes from deep underground. The Gaias-Store civilization has a machine called the 'Eternal Great Jar' and a machine called the 'Eternal Great Carving'.
The 'Eternal Great Jar' collects argon gas and pours it into silver jars. Whenever a jar is filled, it means that a new life is about to be born. The Gaias Storians will cut a metal plate from their own bodies and put it in. In "Eternal Great Carving", this metal plate will be carved into a special structure, and then placed into a newly created body, becoming a life that can think independently.
This new life lives on the argon gas in the tank. When the argon in the tank is exhausted, its life ends, its metal plates are stored, and the tank is removed and refilled. "
Everyone was speechless listening to this magical civilization.
For a long time, Li Liang asked in confusion: "How long can a tank of argon gas be used?"
"The thinking and movement of Gaias Stollians require argon gas. Under normal circumstances, they can survive for about forty to fifty years."
"What about the social system?" Li Shuang asked.
"The people of Gaias Stoll communicate through wired connections, and their thoughts are completely transparent to each other. There is no leader in the strict sense. However, the two individuals responsible for guarding the 'Eternal Great Jar' and the 'Eternal Great Carving' have the ability to control the inheritance machine. Power, universally respected by Gaias Stollians.”
"These robots...won't they fill the tank by themselves when the tank is empty? Are they just waiting to die?" K looked confused.
"There is very little information about the Gaias Store people. Judging from the descriptions of the elves, they are simple and slow, living in a society without lies and harm. I think the elves actually do not fully understand the unique culture of this civilization. ," Zero One smiled, "We always take it for granted that self-replication is a characteristic of life. For example, humans reproduce themselves through mating and reproduction, and give reproduction an extremely great meaning. Perhaps, for the Gaias Stollites, a Tanks of argon, that’s what life is all about.”
Li Liang took a deep breath: "How do fairies control the people of Gaias Stoll?"
"The goblin...has taken control of the 'Great Jar of Eternity'."
Hearing this news, everyone present felt a little sad for some reason.
