The night completely enveloped the blue star.
Under a sky without a trace of light pollution, the main sequence stars gave the meteorite belt and the wreckage of the space city a bright brilliance. Viewed from the ground, the space city looked like a ship wandering in the galaxy.
On the rooftop of Wangxiang Hotel, sparks from the charcoal fire floated up, and along with the breeze, the strong aroma of barbecue spread far and wide.
Mo Gu, Li Dongsheng, Peng Xiaofei, and Sun Xiaoxiao were talking quietly around the charcoal fire. Peng Xiaofei rolled up his sleeves and brushed the oil sizzlingly.
At this time, there were slightly urgent footsteps on the stairs inside the rooftop, and the next moment, Ye Ming and He Mo appeared at the same time.
Mo Gu pulled out two chairs beside him at the same time: "Why did you two wait until now?"
"It was mainly because I had a meeting and did some ink-blotting." Ye Ming sat down with a smile, then glanced left and right, and suddenly regretted: "I thought I could eat it as soon as it came up. You have just started roasting my feelings?"
"Doesn't this barbecue have to be grilled to be delicious?" Peng Xiaofei sped up the cumin brushing and raised a ham sausage: "How about a ham sausage first?"
"Forget it, I'll wait for the mutton."
"Don't look down on ham, it's a rare commodity here - Sister Mo, don't you think so?"
"Yes." Mo Gu chuckled: "Any industrial product is a rare product here - from ballpoint pens to motorcycles."
Everyone will smile.
All in all, humans have been developing on Blue Star for five years, and even cities have been built. However, because the consumer group is too small, the cost of replicating the entire human industrial system here is too high - even if there is a universal factory, the current universal factory is mainly completing self-replication rather than expanding the industry.
Therefore, those small commodities that were commonly seen in the human world have become the rarest things here - such as all kinds of messy things in the dollar store in the past. Because it all depends on the airship to deliver it!
"When the Blue Star people come, we should speed up the support." At this time, Sun Xiaoxiao turned around, looked at Ye Ming and asked: "Their people plus our immigrants...there are hundreds of millions here There must be some, it’s enough for a big development.”
"Almost...and there should be more people."
"Oh? The country also has a new immigration plan?"
"Well, there is a new immigration plan." Ye Ming nodded, then stood up and took a sausage from the side and handed it to Sun Xiaoxiao: "Come on, Sister Sun, the guests can taste it first - by the way, what were you talking about just now? "
When Mo Gu saw Ye Ming change the topic, she knew that there must be something ulterior in the meeting held by Ye Ming. She immediately took over the words: "I just looked forward to the future, talked about the past by the way, and listened to a lot of your students. Period costume 13.”
"Aha? I was so low-key when I was a student!"
Peng Xiaofei sprinkled the chili pepper skillfully and handed a handful of mutton to Ye Ming: "You are such a low-key ghost! You don't know that I sleep next door to you?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Bang! Li Dongsheng opened a bottle of beer and handed it to Ye Ming. Then he raised the bottle and drank half a bottle for himself.
Ye Ming smiled and shook his head, and then blew at the mouth of the bottle.
As a human being, "Grand Priest", he can only truly relax when he is with these buddies.
Gradually, the night wind began to become cooler.
After two boxes of beer bottomed out, Ye Ming threw away the sign and said that was the end of the day.
After all, he has a night party to attend later. Even if he meets old friends, he can only restrain himself. Li Dongsheng and Peng Xiaofei are also very sensible. They know that the main thing today is to take care of Sun Xiaoxiao, so they have nothing to do. In suspense, the two of them knocked Sun Xiaoxiao down.
"Whoever persuades you to drink is responsible." Ye Ming stood up, pointed at Sun Xiaoxiao who was leaning on the chair with his eyes closed, and smiled at Li Dongsheng and Peng Xiaofei: "Which one of you will carry it?"
"Here comes Captain Li." Peng Xiaofei also stood up: "I want to clean up the mess."
"Who wants you to clean up? Look down on the machine butler?"
"I can probably walk." At this time, Sun Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and reluctantly stood up. Unexpectedly, she stumbled. Li Dongsheng had quick eyes and hands to support her.
Everyone laughed, winked at Li Dongsheng, and then filed downstairs.
…
After saying a brief goodbye to Mo Gu at the door of the room, He Mo walked into Ye Ming's room.
"I think Sun Xiaoxiao is pretending to be drunk." After entering the house, He Mo made tea for Ye Ming.
"Ahem... I can't tell." Ye Ming chuckled, and raised his wrist to look at the time: "Even if something happens, they are still adults... Besides, both of them are older unmarried young people... which is normal. .”
After all, he drank some wine and his reaction was a bit slow. Ye Ming knew something was wrong as soon as he said the words "older, unmarried young man", but he couldn't take it back.
——There is an older, unmarried young woman right in front of me. Isn’t it true that he doesn’t want to drink the pot?
Sure enough, He Mo's men's movements were stagnant, and then they "looked" at him with endless resentment.
Ye Ming immediately said nothing.
After making tea, He Mo sat on the sofa. After a moment, a laser beam came down.
"Is the sound insulation here okay?" Just when Ye Ming was about to connect to the venue, He Mo suddenly pointed to one side of the room.
Two Imperials lived two rooms away.
Although according to the report, the hearing of the Imperial people is unlikely to have any variation, the fact that they can communicate through pheromones is indeed a bit reassuring.
"No problem, and even if they have the ability to hear it... it won't help." Ye Ming's mouth curled up slightly, and his eyes became a little sharp at this moment: "The value of the two of them is not very high anymore."
He Mo took a breath instantly.
She was present at all of Ye Ming's actions this afternoon, and based on her understanding of Ye Ming... she knew that Ye Ming had learned what he wanted to know from the conversation with the two people in the afternoon.
In other words, the most crucial thing.
Coupled with the information suddenly received from inside the Executor Base, mankind has made unprecedented gains in understanding the enemy today!
Therefore, today in the afternoon, we will report the content of the exchange with that Gloria to the Earth side, and we will have another one in a few hours.
It can be imagined that during the few hours that Ye Ming was eating barbecue, the earth must have been a bit chaotic.
Soon, Ye Minglian joined the meeting.
In the void light curtain, there were three bosses from the community, and then Taiyue and the heads of multiple departments appeared.
…
"...So, in principle, we are willing to assist the Blue Star people in rescuing the abducted compatriots back to Blue Star. But before that, our main goal is to defeat the enemy. And according to the intelligence currently available, the enemy is more powerful than we imagine.”
In the light curtain, the leader's eyes were sharp and his voice was serious. After a pause, he said solemnly: "Furthermore, according to the information you provided, we are currently in a level 8 attack mission - who can tell What does it mean for me to be level eight?"
At this time, Director Xia raised his hand: "This is a sub-high-level mission level. We don't know the intensity of the attack, but we can judge a clue from the comparison with Canglan Star - the level at which Canglan Star and the others were executed. It’s level three.”
The leader tilted his head slightly, his eyes were extremely sharp, and he snorted slightly: "At the third level, we can kidnap the entire ethnic group into slavery, so if we at the eighth level, don't we have to reinvent everyone?"
Everyone was silent.
At this time, the leader looked at Ye Ming: "Academician Ye, did the two imperial prisoners provide any valuable confessions?"
Hearing this, everyone in the picture "looked" towards Ye Ming.
And the expressions of some of them have also undergone subtle changes.
This also included He Mo - she knew very well that in the discussion of how to treat the two imperial prisoners, the attitude of the leader was very crucial - to put it bluntly, it still meant a bit of "influence".
But after obtaining extremely valuable information from the Blue Star "Sin Descendant" today, the leader was obviously really angry.
Listen, "information" has become "confessions."
the reason is simple.
As an advanced civilization that has come a long way from fighting and killing, conquering each other, and even exterminating each other...in this way, human beings still adopt an extremely patient and gentle policy when facing those relatively weak civilizations, instead of Simple violent conquest.
For a long time, humans have subconsciously believed that the Holy Empire behind the executor, as an advanced civilization that unified the universe, would obviously be equally "civilized and advanced" - as for why They will destroy the Blue Star and attack the earth. The "excuse" humans give them is to "mechanically perform programmed tasks."
And even if they know that there are so-called executioners behind the Executor Legion, humans are still willing to believe that there must be some people in the Holy Empire who are "good-hearted".
For example, the "enlightener" that the Kodo people long for.
Therefore, mankind treated the two “captives” of enlighteners with great courtesy.
But now it seems...human beings still imagine this holy empire too beautifully.
Facing the many eyes, Ye Ming nodded slightly and opened the tablet at the same time.
"Well, we got some valuable information."
"First of all." Ye Ming took a gentle breath, and nodded slowly after a moment, as if to give himself a firm belief: "As we have judged before, their advantage over us lies in two points."
"The first point is that they have a longer period of time and a broader sphere of influence and resources than we do. This determines that they have two thousand battleships and five servant systems in just one Base 31 - and There are many such bases throughout the universe."
"The words of the Queen of Keron that we are against the entire universe are not particularly exaggerated. At the same time, because this is a gap caused by time, we cannot erase the gap on this scale."
Everyone looked serious and listened quietly.
"The second point is our unknown about them. This unknown reflects the unknown about their social organizational structure, production capacity, industrial scale, technological direction, technological height, etc."
"But this can be gradually eliminated. For example, today... we can be sure that their level of civilization is not higher than ours."
Following Ye Ming's words, everyone's expressions remained unchanged, but it was obvious that everyone was slightly relieved.
"Yes, not only are they not more advanced than us, they are even... behind us!"
Ye Ming clenched his fist lightly and said in a deep voice: "I now extremely doubt that the civilization of the Holy Empire has already received all the rewards they deserve and has come to an end."
As soon as these words came out, many people had doubts in their eyes.
Instead, the leader asked tentatively after a slight hesitation: "Are you referring to the Kerong people's evolutionary labyrinth theory?"
"Yes, in the previous discussion with Orlando, I thought that we are currently on the right and only path to the end of the maze. Now I am even more convinced."
As he spoke, Ye Ming raised his head and looked at everyone: "Counting all the civilizations that we know that are going to the stars, each of them has more or less obtained those things that we only exist in guessing, and can't even guess. The magical substances and technologies that arrived...we are the only ones, nothing else."
"We have no tachyons, no intelligent brain, no Slanzi matter, no entropy reduction technology, and no dark matter technology... What we do have is relying on mankind's longing for the unknown and the stars in the universe for thousands of years. , the pursuit of science has established a set of scientific theories and technologies, and even in the middle, we have taken many detours and overturned many perceptions."
"And just like this, we have stumbled all the way to the age of cosmic civilization, completed the journey they took thousands of years to complete, and began to rival or even surpass them..."
"Therefore, I strongly believe that at this time, we have actually surpassed our enemies in our understanding of this universe and this world."
"The Holy Empire, compared to us, is just a low-level civilization with more cannons and ships."
"Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why... we will have a crushing advantage over our enemies in many areas."
"For example, our second-generation rice grain technology, our quantum AI technology, and our high-dimensional space membrane defense technology - these are not gifts from the Creator, but the gains we deserve on our way to the end of the evolutionary maze!"
As Ye Ming's powerful words fell, everyone's expressions relaxed at the same time, and a smile of confidence began to appear in their eyes.
The leader looked over with a smile.
"Then, what to do with those two prisoners?"
"Tomorrow I will take them to see the world." Ye Ming squinted his eyes slightly and said softly: "If they still can't understand what human beings' current technological and industrial capabilities mean, then... they have nothing to do with being members of an 'advanced' civilization. the value of."
"In other words, the only value is that it makes us clear how low-level their civilization is."
