Chapter 188 Negotiation Results and New Expansion Plan
In the following time, Xue Hua stood there waiting for the arrival of the two sisters, while listening to various reports from the commanders of the swarm.
Following Zagara and Abathur, Keles also reported a series of results from previous negotiations.
The protoss need the insect swarm to temporarily act as a shield in front of them so that they can have some time to recover.
Executive Officer Harens selected a resource star that had been written into the Protoss beacon as a colony a long time ago as the main hub of the Protoss, and then led his fleet to begin rebuilding his home on the planet.
In exchange for accepting the cover of the insect swarm, Harlans announced that he would obey Xue Hua's command in the subsequent series of battles. As long as Xue Hua's orders were not absurd and were not suspected of forcing the protoss to die, the protoss fleet would
Completely obey his orders.
In addition, the Protoss and the Insect Swarm will establish a long-term alliance and cooperation to jointly develop this new universe.
Harlans's sincerity in cooperation is not low. Among them, the series of treatment Keles said he received under Xue Hua also gave this executive who has always been somewhat biased against the insect swarm a reassurance.
The swarm under Xue Hua was not as crazy as under Kerrigan or the first-generation Overlord. Although it still completed its own evolution by devouring the essence of other creatures, its aggressiveness was much better than before.
Admittedly, there must be reasons for Xel'Naga's suppression, but it can also be seen that this new swarm master is not the kind of guy who wants to evolve at all costs.
And according to Keles' description, this universe is indeed much more dangerous than Harlans imagined.
Not only are there two super-level psychic biological civilizations, "angels" and "demon", but even the native humans of this universe cannot be underestimated in their power.
What about "Legendary" and "Extraordinary", they are completely humanoid self-propelled star destroyer cannons...
With the current strength of their protoss fleet, it is probably not enough to be squeezed by one hand...
So it’s better to keep a low profile for now…
Since arriving in Sanctuary World, Keles has been studying the thousand-year-old war between the High Heaven, Chaos Purgatory and humans in his spare time.
Therefore, he knew very well that with the current strength of his compatriots, rashly participating would only lead to disaster.
So he urged Harens to form an alliance with the swarm, and use the protection of the swarm to temporarily hide and recuperate. Only when his strength recovers to a certain level can he have the confidence to fight against the various races in the universe and the Xel'Naga.
.
Kellus's earnest persuasion indeed had an extraordinary effect, and Harlans began to clearly realize how weak the power of the protoss was in this universe.
So after discussing with several of his deputies, he fully accepted Keles' proposal and signed his name on the letter of intent for alliance.
Xue Hua also reviewed the alliance conditions given by Keles in detail. After reading them, he expressed that he was quite satisfied and agreed to the alliance.
As a result, the insect swarm and the protoss reached a comprehensive cooperation agreement. After the two parties exchanged the last round of intelligence and contact information, they began to implement their respective plans separately.
The insect swarm is responsible for protecting and covering up the location information of the main hub base of the protoss, and providing it with a certain supply of resources.
The protoss uses their unique technology to explore more star areas for the swarm to expand.
At the same time, the two parties worked together to establish a cooperative starport in the asteroid belt on the outer edge of the star system where the Sanctuary world is located. The basis of the starport is the asteroid belt base of the previous insect swarm.
This will become the information exchange point and communication center between the two races. At the same time, the insect swarm and the protoss will each send a small fleet for protection.
Moreover, after hearing the "Golden Insect Swarm" plan mentioned by Keles, the chief phase technician in the Harens fleet expressed great interest in it. After Harens's approval, he dispatched a team of elite technicians
The team stationed at the mysterious sand dune research base in the world of Sanctuary and began to provide stronger protoss technology support for the "Golden Insect Swarm" project.
The matter of forming an alliance with the protoss has come to an end for the time being. Xue Hua did not disturb Keles' research, but turned his attention to the first fleet.
Currently, Stukov has relieved his duties as the commander of the First Fleet and has begun to assume the overall coordination and command of all fleets in the entire swarm.
According to him, the First Fleet had already moved towards the previously designated expansion point three months ago. If nothing unexpected happened, they should have arrived at the target sector by now and started to seize resources.
The evolution of the unstable star in this star area is getting closer and closer to the end, and a supernova explosion may occur at any time.
But there is Jiagong, a master of resource collection, in the first fleet. According to calculations, it should be enough to collect enough resources before the supernova occurs.
However, because the fleet is currently in another star region, the coverage area of the main hive mind cannot be reached, so the situation of the fleet can only be judged by the messages transmitted back by the node king insect every two days.
The latest intelligence obtained by Stukov showed that the resource extraction mission of the First Fleet was going relatively smoothly, and it was estimated that it would take four Sanctuary World months to complete the mission.
By then, they will return to the asteroid belt starport with a large amount of high-quality resources, injecting new vitality into the expansion of the insect swarm.
Moreover, Stukov has also designated the next star area for expansion. There is a high intelligent civilization in this star area, but the civilization level of this intelligent civilization is very low, and like the insect swarm, it is also
It belongs to a biological evolutionary civilization.
Stukov asked Xue Hua about his opinion on how to deal with the intelligent creatures in this world. Xue Hua thought about it for a while and then authorized it to make its own decision.
Whatever Stukov ultimately decides to do, he will support it.
The Supervisory King Insect has conducted a round of surveillance on this world, and the surveillance report sent back shows that the so-called "higher intelligent creatures" on this planet are still in the primitive social stage, and even the slavery system has not yet been fully formed.
Social organization is also in the form of "tribes" and "caste settlements".
Seventy percent of the surface of this ecological planet is land, and less than 30% is ocean. Most of the water systems on the planet exist in the form of underground rivers. The water sources that exist in this form are destined to
Organisms must have enough digging ability to obtain sufficient water supply.
However, the types of species on this ecological star are quite diverse. The most important advanced intelligent creature is a creature with a gray-brown body, sharp front claws, a body covered with tough skin, and a head that looks like an anteater.
.
They all have six limbs, but they are creatures that stand and walk on two legs. Their upper bodies have two pairs of forelimbs, the upper pair has sharp claws, and the lower pair has palms with four stubby fingers.
There are a total of six different branch populations of this creature, and each population has slightly different appearances, which are quite similar to the different human races on the earth in Xue Hua's previous life. (To be continued)
