Probably Isidov himself would not have thought that the Blue Star man named Li Yi in front of him would be as familiar with his home planet, Thales.
After finally waiting for Li Yi to pause for a moment, Isidov hurriedly interjected.
"Can I ask, how do you know so much information about Thales? Logically speaking, Blue Star has been blocked by the Alien Alliance at various levels, and it is impossible for any information to flow in.
.”
"That's right. It seems that you are quite competent as the leader of the lurkers." Li Yi nodded and smiled, but when he saw the other party lowering his head unconsciously, he couldn't help but feel funny inside.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. We will talk about this later when we have the opportunity. Let's talk about the issue you are most concerned about first."
Upon hearing these words, Isidov immediately raised his head that had just been lowered and looked at Li Yi hopefully.
As a lurker who has been discovered and is still the biggest leader, it doesn't matter to him even if he is executed immediately, but what he wants to know more is why the other party doesn't just give him a happy death.
It even seemed like you didn't intend to let him die?
This gave him a little hope.
What if someone doesn't want to kill me?
At this time, he had no idea that as early as when the "captain of guards" talked to him, he had already been planted with a power called the mind's eye, and then he unknowingly went in a positive direction.
think.
"Actually, I just talked about so many things about your home planet, not to show off our intelligence sources, but to ask you a question."
"As a native of the Moore clan of Thales, you don't know what the word "lurker" means, right?"
Hearing this, Isidov smiled bitterly. This sentence seemed to bring back endless memories for him.
"Lurker? On the planet Thales, these three words have another name."
"the forgotten."
...
I don’t know how many years ago it was, and I don’t know how far away it was.
Thales Star, the home planet of the Moore clan.
Today is the day when the Presbyterian Council selects the leader of the lurker. Every ten Thales years, which is the hundredth year of the Blue Star Year, the Moore clan on Thales planet will select a leader of the third-level civilization.
Representative, join the Alien Alliance, and as the leader of the lurkers, go to a planet they don't even know where it is and don't care.
Yes, on Thales planet, no one pays attention to where the chosen leader of the lurkers will be sent, what he will do there, and what role it will play in the future of Thales planet.
No one will pay attention.
Just as Isidov said, the lurker leader of the Moore clan, who came from the third-level civilization Thales, was actually just a poor fellow abandoned by his clan, a forgotten person, nothing more.
This answer was actually within Li Yi's expectation, so he asked: "For example, you are actually equivalent to another form of liaison sent by a high-level force to a low-level force, but in the name of your clan
From a human perspective, this kind of liaison officer is dispensable, am I right?”
"You are right. This is what I don't understand." Isidov nodded and looked at Li Yi, "Although I come from a third-level civilization, I have no prejudice against other low-level civilizations.
I don’t think my tribe will have any discrimination or look down upon low-level civilization, so why don’t you just kill me?”
His meaning is very obvious. Now that you have discovered me, the leader of the lurkers, why don't you just kill me and end the matter? But looking at it now, not only do you not want to kill me, but you want me to work for you?
But our clan has never set our sights on Blue Star, and we have no plans to invade at all. A port planet of a first-level civilization, even if it is a universal wormhole type, will not cause mole, who is considered the top among third-level civilizations.
Is it a family interest?
Li Yi heard this and smiled strangely: "Yes, a port star with only level one cannot attract the attention of level three civilization. Of course I know this, but..."
"What if another level three civilization is interested?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Isidov looked at the Blue Star man in front of him with a smile, but he had no idea what he was thinking.
"I'll show you something and you'll understand."
When Li Yi presented something that looked like a map but had some unintelligible words marked on it, Isidov cast doubtful eyes on him again.
"This is another civilization that belongs to the same third-level civilization as your Moore clan. It's called Polly. Oh, this is just the name of the star field they are in. There is no way to know which civilization it is." Li Yi smiled and gave it.
Answer.
"So what do you mean?"
"It's very simple. Although they both belong to the third-level civilization, civilizations can have their peaks and declines, but the same third-level civilization will never give another third-level civilization any chance to rise. The recent order from Thales Star,
Has it increased?"
"!!!" Isidov looked at the Blue Star man in front of him in surprise. At this moment, he already knew the other person's name. "Li, Mr. Li, are you telling the truth? So this is actually a third-level civilization.
A war with another level three civilization?”
"It seems that it is not too late for you to wake up. You are right. Moreover, you are very lucky. Your home planet is a strong one. But as I just said, no civilization will compromise when it comes to survival.
Therefore, even though the other party has gradually declined due to some reasons, the Moore clan will not give them any chance to rise. This time, the first-level port star incident is the best and unexpected opportunity for them.
!”
"You mean my home planet will also send people to join the war? This is impossible! They have never had such an idea!" Isidov was extremely surprised, but in fact, he had already agreed with this in his heart.
The orders he has received from his home planet in the past two years have more than doubled the total number in the past eighteen years!
Li Yi shook his head and looked at the Moor who was unwilling to admit the fact: "Of course you know this is a fact. In fact, you have already agreed with this. The reason why you chose to expose your identity is probably not just because you want to
Stay on the Blue Star, because you know very well that we cannot kill you at all. It is impossible to kill an alien from a third-level civilization with only the means of a first-level civilization! Am I right?"
"You..." Isidov looked at Li Yi again. At this moment, he got to know this Blue Star man again, "Who are you?"
