"What?" When he heard this broadcast, Xiao Yu was startled and stayed for a moment.
"How is it possible? I am still twenty light-years away from them, and this place is in the void. There are no stars within a light-year nearby. How did they find me? Are they so powerful that they can fly within a radius?
All detection instruments are deployed within twenty light years? If it is really so powerful, it seems that my strategy needs to be changed."
Xiao Yu thought quickly and relayed the matter to the Lucca scientists.
"We don't need to hide our strength. Although we don't know what means they used, but judging from this message, they have discovered us." Luca 3 shook his head bitterly and said, "Is this what it is?"
A fifth-level civilization? It can be so powerful..."
This piece of information disrupted all Xiao Yu's arrangements. Xiao Yu originally wanted to hide part of the fleet, and only showed strength that was appropriately beyond the ordinary fourth-level civilization to trade with this fifth-level civilization. Xiao Yu never imagined that he had just
When he emerged from the super-light voyage, he was completely discovered by the opponent.
"No, under this situation, I think we should carefully consider whether to trade with this fifth-level civilization. After all, if they are too powerful, we will easily become fat sheep.
All precious materials were robbed." Xiao Yu said.
There was silence in the conference room.
At this moment, another broadcast came over.
"Welcome to Tianlan Market! This market adheres to the principle of fair trade. Here, no matter what level of civilization you are, you can get a safe and fair trading environment! For specific details, please go to the market for a detailed inspection, and we will have
Dedicated personnel are at your service!”
A strange thought suddenly occurred in Xiao Yu's mind.
"Why is this broadcast so familiar..." Xiao Yu muttered to himself, thinking hard.
Suddenly, Xiao Yu reacted. Then, a feeling of dumbfounding emerged from Xiao Yu's heart.
"Isn't this kind of broadcast very common on earth? If you go to any pedestrian street, you will hear broadcasts like this, for example, our store's clearance sale, our store's x discount discount, etc... This is obviously just a radio advertisement, it
It was released over a wide area and not specifically targeted at me. It was ridiculous. I thought they had discovered me. If they have such powerful intelligence collection capabilities, then a level five civilization would be too terrifying."
After thinking about this, Xiao Yu relaxed.
"Everything remains as planned."
After telling his speculation, Xiao Yu issued such an order.
"It's just an advertisement, an advertisement..." The expressions of Luca's scientists were still a little confused.
"It's not wrong." Xiao Yu said with certainty, "Monitoring all areas within a radius of twenty light years and leaving us unaware is not in line with my speculation about the strength of a fifth-level civilization. In other words,
A fifth-level civilization shouldn’t be so powerful. Maybe a sixth-level civilization will have this ability, but a fifth-level civilization definitely won’t.”
"Okay, this is the only explanation." The expressions of the Lucca scientists were quite strange.
"We already have the detailed geographical information of the coordinates, so it's time to work out the specific contact details." Xiao Yu said, "My plan is this. Our fleet is divided into two parts. One part is composed of two ships.
Provincial spaceships led a team of 50,000 spaceships to go to the trade. The remaining spaceships chose radio silence mode and lurked three light-months away from the trading galaxy. This distance is the safest, and it is within this five-month period.
It is beyond the intelligence control range of the super civilization. If an accident occurs to the trading fleet, the main fleet can arrive within twenty days to provide support."
"I agree with this plan." Luca 2 stood up first and said: "But there is one more thing. In the process of dealing with this fifth-level civilization, we must not expose our secrets, which are your master's.
If there is information about the existence form, then the existence of some scientific and technological civilization creatures is very necessary. I applied for me to lead the team and lead a trading team composed of one thousand to two thousand Lucca people to be specifically responsible for this transaction.
Of course, during the transaction process, I will carry special communication equipment and follow your commands and orders at any time."
This request is reasonable and reasonable, and it is also the best choice under the current situation. So Xiao Yu immediately agreed. In his heart, he couldn't help but think: "Luca 2 seems to be a little anxious. Well... in name, it
He is the supreme leader of Lucca society, but in the past few hundred years, its glory has been overshadowed by the two scientific and technological leaders, Lucca III and Lucca IV. It is reasonable to be anxious to show off yourself.
among.”
Regarding this competitive mentality, Xiao Yu not only does not intend to suppress it, but also intends to vigorously support it. This kind of competition is healthy. The greater the competition, the greater the benefit to Xiao Yu.
"Okay, you, No. 2, can choose the specific candidates. This matter will be handled by you. Later, I will give you a list of supplies, and you will be responsible for using the supplies on the list to exchange as much as possible.
Return the things and information we need."
"Follow your instructions." Luca II agreed.
Xiao Yu is certain that in the Milky Way, there is no unified currency system among different civilizations. In the Guardian Alliance, a system using contribution points as currency has been developed. However, as the Guardians
The alliance disappeared and the system collapsed.
Then, in this market, the most likely transaction method is the most primitive barter. In this case, the operability is much greater, because the prices of various things do not
A fixed standard. This requires a specialized talent to come forward to conduct transactions. There is no doubt that Lucca No. 2, as the social and political leader of Lucca, is the most suitable for this task.
After making all the plans, Xiao Yu's fleet once again entered the super-light voyage. This time, the super-light voyage only lasted less than four years. When it entered the regular voyage, Xiao Yu's fleet had already arrived at the target.
Three light-months away from the star system.
The distance of three light months is about 2.3 trillion kilometers. Above this distance, the stars are still dim and the space is still empty. Xiao Yu's fleet will be able to hide here very well. As long as it does not send out
Xiao Yu basically doesn't have to worry about being discovered by others when there is a big movement.
After dismantling all the four-maintenance cover generators of the 50,000 spacecraft participating in the transaction, these spacecrafts embarked on a new journey. These spacecraft without the four-maintenance cover no longer have too conspicuous features. However, the use of
Made from the flesh and blood of white dwarf alien beasts and Zerg limbs, they still have combat power that surpasses ordinary fourth-level civilization spaceships.
In Xiao Yu's prediction, in order to prevent being wiped out by other advanced civilizations, this fifth-level civilization cannot retain too much power in this trading market. Therefore, these 50,000 spaceships are to ensure that Xiao Yu obtains
The most powerful guarantee for a fair and just trading environment.
The two fleets are in constant contact with each other using long-distance communication technology. Xiao Yu can obtain any information about these 50,000 spacecraft in real time.
After more than ten days of super-light navigation, the fleet returned to regular navigation. At this moment, the fleet was only less than 30 billion kilometers away from the star. At the same time, Xiao
Yu saw this fifth-level civilization's spaceship for the first time.
Hundreds of thousands of kilometers in front of Xiao Yu's fleet, a streamlined small spacecraft with a length of about tens of meters suddenly appeared. As soon as this spacecraft appeared, it immediately sent a message to Xiao Yu's fleet.
"Guest from afar, what are you doing here?"
"Our civilization has received your broadcast. We are here to sell some of our excess supplies and buy some of the technology and information that we urgently need." Xiao Yu replied.
"Oh, please forgive me for being cautious. In the hundreds of years since we opened the market, there has almost never been a fleet of such a large scale. Are you afraid that you will be treated unfairly? It doesn't matter, our Merian civilization
We have sufficient strength to ensure that the transaction process is fair and just.”
There was a warning implicit in this passage. Xiao Yu turned a deaf ear to it and replied: "We believe in the strength of your fifth-level civilization, that's why we chose to come here to trade with you."
After receiving the message from Xiao Yu, the voice began to become kinder: "Guests from afar, welcome to the Sky Blue Market. In order to ensure the order of the trading market, your fleet will not be allowed to enter the inner system.
.Please follow our arrangements and keep your spaceship outside the galaxy. Please rest assured that you will be safe within the trading market."
Xiao Yu responded: "Okay, please lead the way."
After a brief exchange, the small spacecraft in front changed its direction and began to fly towards the inner galaxy at sub-light speed. Xiao Yu's fleet followed closely under Xiao Yu's command.
As if to frighten Xiao Yu, the small spacecraft continued to perform difficult movements while flying. Xiao Yu did not express any opinion on this. On the contrary, the Luca scientists were very interested and nervously recorded a series of
Technical parameters, trying to deduce the performance data of this small spacecraft.
The sublight speed voyage lasted for more than two days. The closer to the star, the more and more types of spacecraft observed by Xiao Yu. The shapes, styles, and sizes of these spacecrafts were different, and they seemed to belong to different civilizations.
"This place really has a bit of a market flavor." Xiao Yu thought. (To be continued.)
