After receiving entry permission, Aura's transport fleet arrived at the center of the Betares Federation, the Betares system, under the intense "escort" of several medium-sized fleets.
Due to the huge size of the Bowhead Whale class, its space channels were inaccessible, and it had to stop in an interstellar port transformed from a satellite.
After parking the fleet, Aura, led by several staff members, took a shuttle to the space station above the orbit of the Betares Federation's capital star.
"Messenger from New Eden, welcome your arrival."
When Aura entered the living room, Xue Wei III took the initiative to extend her hand to express welcome.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. President."
Aura also extended her hand to greet her. Her smiling face was very kind and warm, making people feel comfortable at first glance.
After sitting down for a normal exchange, Xuewei III went straight to the topic. Although there was a smile on his face, his words were very sharp:
"Since your Excellency is here on behalf of New Eden, and New Eden joined the Order of Justice yesterday, then your coming here should be more than just a diplomatic visit, right?"
Lao Qian, who had been sitting aside without speaking, was also staring at Aura, his eyes full of coldness.
Everyone knows that the Betales Federation has a blood feud with the two major camps. Does New Eden know this?
Feeling the coldness between the two of them, Aura remained calm and composed, raised her left foot, hugged her knees with both hands, and leaned on the sofa.
There was no direct answer, but the topic turned to other aspects.
"Your Excellency, when I first came here, I took a look at the escort fleet. They were using 'Guardian' class battleships, right?"
Xuewei III did not show any displeasure when Aura changed the subject, but instead said with pride:
"Your Excellency, the envoy, is very accurate. It is indeed the pride of the Betares Federation, the 'Guardian-class' battleship."
The 'Guardian-class' battleship was a project undertaken by the Betares Federal Central Research Institute thirty years ago. It was a battleship development project specially carried out to deal with high-intensity battles.
It took ten years to finally succeed, and the super-heavy battleship-Guardian class was developed!
The leaders at the time were very satisfied with this and ordered that they go all out to mass-produce and then gradually replace the entire army.
But before it was officially launched, the Betares Federation fell apart under the joint siege of the two camps, and the relevant information and production lines of the 'Guardian Class' were also destroyed in the war.
Only this single batch hidden in the subspace arsenal was preserved, and was later taken out after Xuewei III fought back to the Betares system, and displayed its own brilliance on the battlefield.
It was also this batch of 'Guardian-class' battleships that allowed them to persist until now and made great contributions to the current Betares Federation.
It is also the pride of Bertales!
"The 'Guardian' class battleship has excellent performance in high-intensity scenes, and is one of the best battleships even now."
Aura did not hesitate to praise her, but then the topic changed again and she looked at Xuewei III with a smile on her face.
"However, after so many years of fighting, no matter how much 'guard-level' combat preparations were stored at the beginning, they should be almost exhausted by now, right?"
After Aola finished speaking, Xuewei III and Lao Qian fell silent for a moment.
Then Lao Qian suddenly sneered and looked at Aura: "It is true that there are not many battleships in the Federation now, but there is no problem in taking half of Betares' forces with them!
As long as there is one Federation man alive, he can drag an enemy down with him!
The Betares Federation is not afraid of war, let alone death!"
This veteran who has been fighting for many years has a calm tone, but his fearless and iron-blooded temperament is beyond words.
It makes people believe their words, and they do so, as evidenced by the wars over the years.
After Aura was silent for a moment, she lowered her crossed legs and at the same time let go of the arrogance she had always felt in her heart.
Aura took the initiative to reach out her hand and looked at the two pillars of Betares in front of her with a sincere expression.
"I think we should get to know the person in charge of external affairs of New Eden—Aura!"
This time, Aura really wanted to reach a strategic agreement with the Betares Federation, instead of originally just wanting to support some warships so that they could stand in front of them as cannon fodder and buy time for New Eden.
The two of them also readily accepted Aura's kindness.
This time, the invisible barrier between the two sides also quietly disappeared.
After returning to his seat, Aura didn't beat around the bush. He also knew that doing so would be counterproductive in front of these two people, so he spoke very directly.
"Now the battle between the camps is getting more intense and could break out at any time, so I, New Eden, want to protect myself, so I joined the Order of Justice."
In response to Aura's frank words, both of them nodded to express their understanding.
Xuewei III nodded to this, and said with a wry smile to Aura: "I can understand, otherwise you will inevitably become the next us."
"It's good that you two understand." Aura also nodded slightly to express his gratitude, and then said, "And because the Alpha Star Territory is now under our control, we cannot give it up, so we
I am responsible for the defense of the entire Alpha Star Territory on my own. Once a war breaks out, I may not be able to take care of the four battlefields, so I am here to seek strategic cooperation from you."
Aura's straightforwardness made the two of them a little stunned. They thought Aura would speak more obscurely.
But then he came to his senses, and Xuewei III also said straightforwardly: "Then what can we get?"
As for why New Eden came to them alone, they did not need to ask, because apart from them, there was no other force in the entire Betares star field that would dare to be an enemy of the two camps.
And to say that the two major camps were deliberately allowed to enter the Alpha Star Territory is even more nonsense.
They don't believe that New Eden will not build a military fortress in their gateway system!
At that time, they will really be no longer human on three sides, and they have no other way to go except to defend themselves against the enemy.
So Xuewei III asked directly what they could get.
"Three hundred Hells Angel-class battleships. The performance of this battleship is not inferior to your Guardian-class battleship."
Before Xuewei III could speak to Lao Qian, Aura continued to spread her chips.
"Considering the issue of future war supplies, I will ask Your Majesty again for instructions to support you in manufacturing the manufacturing equipment for this Hell's Angels-class battleship."
Aola's words immediately made the two of them happy. If it can really succeed, it will really solve a big problem!
But then Xuewei III reacted immediately and asked Aura calmly:
"These are beyond the scope of support. What else do you need from us?"
Fortunately for battleships, the production line and manufacturing data blueprint of this battleship cannot be handed over to them so easily and simply.
Aura grinned.
"New Eden now needs a large amount of minerals to build defense forces, so..."
