Karatu galaxy, the thirteenth planet, Antura. (See Chapter 584 for an overview of the galaxy)
Although it is far away from the main sequence stars, the temperature on Antura is not too low and remains around zero. In addition to the small amount of atmosphere above, this is mainly because the Karatu galaxy has three stars, and Antura is currently in the Because it is at perihelion from 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, when its temperature will be as low as minus 180 degrees, and no life can survive.
Therefore, for a long time, the people of Kerong have treated it as a resource-based planet. If the conditions are good, they will come and dig a few hoes if necessary. If the conditions are not good, they will leave it alone.
Now is the time when conditions are good.
…
Hidden in a huge mountain more than two thousand meters above the ground is a large forward base.
Construction of this base started four years ago, and it was only completed and put into use some time ago.
In front of the base is a canyon that is as graceful as a river and surrounded by undulating mountains. On the flat ground of the canyon, countless large-scale construction machinery is intensifying construction, and prototypes of factories continue to wind along the mountain walls.
Going up the mountains, battleships waving their fangs and claws totems were densely scattered, filling a small half of the space, facing the fleet on the opposite side of the planet across the globe.
This is the last advanced base of the Tara people on the planet Antura.
At this time, a warship pierced the sky and slowly landed in the canyon.
The hatch opened, and several Tara people wearing oxygen masks walked quickly towards the base.
As the base gate closed, Flack took one last look at the sunset behind him. He pulled down his mask and strode towards the oncoming base commander.
"Frack."
"Hynix."
The two people first saluted each other and then hugged each other in a friendly manner.
"My old friend, you have worked hard." Flack looked at his old friend who had white hair on his head, shook his head and sighed: "I remember you were not like this before."
"Hide in the ravines and dig tunnels, with main guns flying overhead, and you have to worry about the Kron people sending ground troops behind you... Is it hard for you?" General Hynix smiled and patted Flack on the shoulder. : "Let's 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 across the bench. He felt relaxed after his four legs left the ground. He picked up the teacup and looked at his old friend with a smile: "By the way, I'm still here this time. I have good news to tell you."
"What good news?"
"You're going to have your grandson when you go back."
"Huh?" The base commander was startled for a moment, and then his face lit up. But immediately, his face showed a hint of surprise and a hint of seriousness. Two seconds later, he frowned and his eyes became sharp. : "You mean the Senate wants me to go back?"
"Well...that is indeed what the Senate means."
"Damn it! I finally opened up the situation here, now let me go back?" Hynix became angry and slapped the tea cup on the table: "Why did I go back? To stab those grandsons?"
"Ahem..." Flack knew the character of his old friend. He immediately coughed and quickly explained: "Old man, don't be angry yet."
"If you're not angry, come on!"
"Yeah...I'll do it." Flack nodded naturally.
Hynix was stunned for a moment and looked at Flack in disbelief: "What did you say?"
"I said, they asked me to... be fully responsible for the situation of the entire Karatu galaxy." Before the other party could get angry, Flack immediately added: "This... is actually not what the Senate meant."
"Is that what you mean?"
"No, it's the order from Wisdom Mother." Flack stared at Hynix and breathed out softly: "Man, and... humans have come here, and we have to deal with them."
…
Seeing his old friend leave angrily, Flack sighed and picked up the teacup on the ground, then stood up and walked towards the central control computer.
But standing in front of the computer, he fell silent again, looking at the computer, unable to enter instructions for a long time.
Since a few months ago, he intercepted a spacecraft claiming to be the Kra tribe in another pioneering galaxy, got acquainted with the human race, and obtained ultra-distance communication technology from the 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 all good things.
But he vaguely noticed something unusual.
Wisdom Mother seems to understand humans very well, and... she also trusts humans.
For example, this time, Wisdom Mother directly issued an order to lead the support fleet to enter the Karatu system in large numbers, but she did not take the opportunity to launch a joint attack with the remaining fleet. She just showed a posture of overwhelming the enemy with troops, and allowed the other party to attack. The support fleet arrived, and the two sides faced off again.
What's the difference between this and a dog that doesn't bite when it barks?
You must know that your fleet has arrived through the star gate. If you don't take the initiative to seek fighter opportunities, you will definitely suffer the consequences.
That's not all. The most important thing is that the human fleet is also in the Karatu galaxy. Even when he arrived, the first fleet of the Kron people was still confronting the human fleet - even if he didn't seize the opportunity, Zhi What did your mother think?
Of course, he believed that Wisdom Mother must have her own analysis and logic. After all, Wisdom Mother has been guiding the development of Tara civilization for so many years and has achieved incomparable achievements.
But, he really couldn't figure it out.
And now... Wisdom Mother lets him contact humans again.
In silence, Flack sighed again, then started the computer, and then the long-distance terminal.
After a moment, the face of the human Great Reisi appeared on the monitor.
"Your Majesty the Great Priest." As soon as Flack saw Ye Ming, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's been a long time since we last seen each other. How are you doing?"
In the picture, Ye Ming also smiled and congratulated: "General Flack, congratulations on your promotion."
"Same joy, please ask...are humans also interested in the Kerong people?"
"We are not interested in the Kron people, but we are interested in the Karatu system and the Antura star."
Flack was startled, his eyes were sharp for a moment and then he laughed: "Humans won't form an alliance with the Kron people, right?"
"To be precise, our three civilizations are about to form an alliance."
Flack's pupils shrank instantly!
Coming soon?
When did humans reach an agreement with the Senate?
Why didn't he know?
"A week later, humans, Tara people, and Keron people, we three parties, will hold negotiations on the flagship of the Auriga battleship."
In the picture, Ye Ming's expression gradually became serious: "There can be no more meaningless wars in the Karatu Galaxy."
Flack breathed in PY instantly: "This is..."
"This is the suggestion that best suits the interests and future of your civilization. I believe your wise mother will definitely support it."
