Star Lord: Rob the alien race and you will get a hundred times the reward

Chapter 84: Omnic Crisis
Liu Wen was promoted to a fourth-level psychic. The psychic conversion cells had basically completed the energy transformation of his body, and he had the ability to survive in the void for a long time.

The scientific knowledge of the fourth-level civilization has already been learned almost completely, and various calculation formulas are at hand. Although they cannot be groundbreaking, they have no problem in applying these formulas by rote.

In order to verify his current strength, Liu Wen synchronized to the second world through the login cabin. The psychic core and the seed of the divine fire were copied by the Interstellar Alliance. In just a moment, his spiritual clone had completed the synchronous promotion.

"Boss, be careful." The group came to an asteroid belt, and Frog followed Liu Wen out of the shuttle.

Liu Wen nodded, and his mind wave asked them to record the relevant data. Then he used his psychic power to construct a space model, and his body instantly leapt hundreds of kilometers away in the energy wave.

"The energy fluctuations are too large, the construction speed of the space model is slow, and the positioning is offset by more than 2,000 meters. It has almost no practical significance." Looking back, Liu Wen shook his head secretly after his own calculations. Sure enough, even if the knowledge is learned, it still depends on how the individual applies it. No wonder there is such a huge difference in strength between the same level.

Then they tried the gamma-ray burst, which gathered cosmic matter and used psychic energy to force it to fission, then constrained the direction of its release. The more matter that fissioned instantly, the more thorough the fission, and the greater the damage.

From fusion-grade lasers, antimatter annihilation, magnetic storms, to space shock waves, all the applied technologies possessed by conventional level 4 civilizations can be replicated by psychic power. The only difference is that the damage is not as great as that of the equipment on board a battleship.

After trying it once, Liu Wen had a general understanding of his current combat power.

"The boss's annihilation damage has reached nearly 1,500 degrees, which has reached the instantaneous damage of a fourth-level cruiser battleship." Frog said with a sharp look at Liu Wen who was returning.

Liu Wen shook his head. "It's useless. The damage from surface combat is overflowing. The distance of air combat is too short. Moreover, the damage is instantaneous. There is no lasting destructive power. For a battleship, it wins as long as it survives that wave."

The blue fat man laughed and said, "Brother Wen, your requirements are too high. You are a lord now, and your own combat power is not important, at least it is not important before level 7. If it is your turn to fight, we should have retreated long ago."

Jack also agreed: "Fat Brother is right. If it comes down to Brother Wen personally going into battle, then there is no need to defend our territory. By that time, whether it is the fleet or the marines, the void creatures will have been almost all killed in the battle."

"Haha, that's true. But we still have to practice. At least we have to be proficient in using all kinds of methods." Liu Wen smiled and called everyone back to the space city.

For several days in a row, Liu Wen took the 9 frogs to the asteroid belt for training. Occasionally, the two sides would have tentative fights to hone their skills. The escorting fleet members looked at the two people flying freely in the space with envy. In theory, everyone could practice to level nine as long as they had enough time. However, in reality, most of them fell at the threshold of level four due to insufficient mental strength. Level seven was another threshold. Among these crew members, there was not even a single one at level three. Most of them were still climbing from level one to level two.

After playing around for several days, one day Liu Wen finished dealing with the affairs of the territory and was about to call Wa Zai to continue his training in the asteroid belt when an urgent alarm suddenly sounded.

A projection suddenly appeared in the office, showing that a large number of intelligent machine legions suddenly appeared in the direction of the B53 area, about light-years away from the Xinghai star system. Dozens of legion-sized fleets launched indiscriminate attacks on the surrounding civilizations, and several civilizations were completely exterminated in a short period of time.

Projections of Bai Haitang, Michelle and Luo Shaohua appeared in the office. While waiting for Liu Wen's instructions, they began to arrange the fleet's defense.

Hundreds of space fortresses and affiliated defense systems surrounding the Xinghai star system have entered a full level one combat readiness state. The three legions have each gathered their fleets to prepare for battle, and the ships that have gone out have returned to the star system and taken refuge in various docks or subspaces.

"Michelle, what information did the dispatched reconnaissance ship send back?" Liu Wen asked while calling up the information data sent back by the scattered detectors.

"Lord, the reconnaissance ship has not yet sent back any specific information." Michelle replied.

Luo Shaohua said: "According to the information sent back by the existing detectors, the intelligent civilization should have established a space wormhole to carry out large-scale military deployment. According to the scale of previous battles of the intelligent civilization, the current troops are only outposts, and the main force is still on the other side of the wormhole in the rear."

"Isn't the intelligent mechanical civilization outside the D99 area? How did they open a space wormhole and come to us?" Bai Haitang asked puzzledly.

Luo Shaohua spread his hands and said, "I also want to know this question."

Liu Wen pressed his temple. This matter gave him a headache. He was the one who least wanted to go to war. Lack of troops was the main reason. Another reason was that the territory had no shortage of funds or resources and was very stable.

With the continuous immigration of population, all aspects of the territory are developing rapidly. If he is given one or two years, the territory can be dozens or hundreds of times stronger than it is now, and then it will be time for large-scale expansion.

"We need to find out how the intelligent civilization got in. I remember there seemed to be a few human pioneers over there. Are they still there?" Liu Wen remembered seeing several marks of human-developed territories over there when he was looking at the star map before, but the specific situation was not clear.

Michelle, who knew the surrounding forces best, responded, "There are four pioneering lords over there. They are all veteran lords with more than a dozen legion fleets. The closest of them is less than fifty light years away from the location where the intelligent machine civilization appeared, and the farthest is more than two hundred light years away."

"So far, no lords have been found dead in the regional channel. We need to wait for the follow-up reconnaissance ship to investigate to find out the specific situation."

Liu Wen crossed his arms and said, "Call a meeting. Also contact the tenant lords and send them a copy of the information. Ask them whether they want to leave or stay and fight."

"Yes, Lord." Bai Haitang understood what Liu Wen meant, turned around and informed Deng Jingting to go and do the work.

The meeting was attended by the Star Sea Command Space Fortress, senior military officials of the Star Sea Territory, and several major ruling officials.

After everyone gathered, Wu Shuhe, as a representative, began to popularize some common sense about intelligent machine civilization to everyone.

"An intelligent civilization, the origins are unknown. When humans first encountered each other, both sides ended in a deadly battle."

"After thousands of years of fighting, humans still haven't found the main body of the intelligent civilization. This is similar to the Void Zerg. All those who go out are the tentacles of the scattered sub-bodies. Life and death have nothing to do with the main body." "During these thousands of years of fighting, humans learned through exchanges with the member countries of the Interstellar Alliance that the power of intelligent civilization in the second world is a universal existence. There is only a life-and-death contest between them and life, and there is no possibility of peaceful coexistence, except for special existences such as silicon-based life or intelligent life, which are not within their attack range."

"In addition, the general strength of a regular intelligent machine army starts at level five. After occupying a star system or resource base, it can quickly climb to level six in the process of building an industrial production system, until it reaches the threshold of level seven."

"An omnic army with more than three legions of troops does not have any technology below level six. The omnic force we are facing now has dozens or even hundreds of legion fleets in its outposts. Based on past experience, this omnic force is likely to have level seven combat power. It's just not clear whether it's small individual combat power or large ship-borne weapons. This needs special attention."

"According to the investigation, the intelligent machine forces have appeared for less than three hours, but more than four alien civilizations have been destroyed because of them. They have occupied three star systems and one subspace."

"The location of the wormhole has been basically confirmed. It is within the coordinate... area."

"The area is heavily guarded by the Omnic Corps, and the detectors cannot approach within four light years, so the specific situation cannot be detected."

"According to the behavior of the intelligent machine civilization, they will continue to expand endlessly towards the surrounding star regions until they encounter a force of equal strength, but they will not stop the war."

After Wu Shuhe finished speaking, Liu Wen spoke up, "This time the target is even more disgusting than the Void Zerg. The Void Zerg with the Zerg Queen at least has the option of retreating if they can't defeat them, but the Omnics will really fight you to the death, regardless of anything, and will keep sending fleets to fight you. While adapting to the attrition tactics, they will also send fleets to expand in other directions to obtain more resources and produce more Omnic weapons to join the battle."

"In the past, when encountering such a situation, human lords would retreat if they could, and would only fight if they really couldn't. But they would not fight to the death, because after defeating the omnics, there would be nothing left except a pile of floating wreckage of omnic weapons. The technological cores of various equipment would self-destruct when the omnic weapons were damaged."

"But now we can't retreat. The Xinghai star system doesn't matter. The Bonucci star field is far outside the galaxy and will not be a problem in the short term. However, the Nix subspace and the Sera Industrial Zone are all here. This is the foundation of the territory and we must not give up. Therefore, we must fight."

Everyone understood what Liu Wen said. If the Star Sea star system only lost its territory by losing the Bonucci star field, then by losing the Sera Industrial Zone and the Bonuccia Space, the Nixa Space would be completely destroyed.

Not only Liu Wen would not allow this, but also everyone who was hoping to achieve success and fame through the Star Sea Territory would not allow it.

"My lord, given the current strength of our territory, we can't even resist the attack of the intelligent civilization, let alone defeat it. I suggest that we should first prepare to evacuate the subspace to a safe area." Zhao Nina stood up and suggested.

Li Bingzhen also said: "Lord, the territory currently has more than 10 billion immigrants. We have already made preparations for the backup of scientific and technological knowledge. As long as the immigrants, scientific and technological knowledge, and researchers are still there, the reconstruction of the territory is only a matter of time. Therefore, I agree with Zhao Zhizheng's proposal to prepare for the subspace relocation first. We cannot gamble with the lives of tens of billions of immigrants and the future of the territory."

Liu Wen clasped his hands together and held his chin without saying anything, but Luo Shaohua spoke at this time.

"Everyone, you only see the military strength of the Xinghai Territory, but have you forgotten one thing? The enemy of the intelligent civilization is not just us humans. Non-silicon-based alien life is also an enemy. The intelligent civilization treats them equally."

"That is to say, the dozens of alien civilizations within the more than 200 light years between us and the intelligent machine civilization are our natural allies. As long as they do not dream of surrendering to the intelligent machine civilization, they must consider the continuation of their own civilization."

As soon as Luo Shaohua said this, Li Bingzhen and others were stunned. They indeed overlooked this point. The crazy nature of the intelligent mechanical civilization made it earn the title of public enemy of life as it wished, and also made itself an existence that the whole universe wanted to kill.

Even the Void Zerg of the Cosmic Scourge hated it to the core. If it weren't for the fact that you couldn't even eat this thing, both sides would have probably fought to the point of their brains flying everywhere.

"How many civilized forces are ahead of us and how strong are they?" Li Bingzhen asked.

Michelle replied: "There are nearly a hundred civilizations in the area of ​​nearly 300 light years, one-third of which belong to the subspace civilization. They may not choose to participate in the war, but are more likely to choose to retreat to the subspace portal, although doing so does not make much sense for the intelligent machine civilization that has mastered wormhole technology."

"The remaining dozens of alien civilizations are our natural allies. As long as they understand the crisis of the intelligent machine civilization, then joint operations to resist the intelligent machine fleet will become an inevitable result."

Anna suggested: "In this case, we should immediately send diplomats to contact them and organize a counter-fleet as soon as possible to stop the offensive of the intelligent civilization. We cannot allow them to destroy these alien civilizations."

"We need time, and those alien civilizations also need time to expand their military strength, so that they can have the confidence to fight against the intelligent civilization. Relatively speaking, our territory is the one that lacks time the most."

Both industrial zones are currently building production lines on a large scale, and it will take some time before they are put into production. Currently, a legion's fleet can be built in half a year, but facing the endless supply of intelligent mechanical weapons, this amount of manpower is no different from throwing stones at water.

Therefore, it is necessary to win over those alien forces, unite dozens of civilizations, push productivity to the limit in a short period of time, and make the military strength and consumption equal or even increase, so as to effectively curb the endless expansion of intelligent civilization.

"There is one more thing. Faced with the emergence of intelligent machine civilization, the Human Union should also intervene. However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs still needs to contact the Human Union to decide on the specific measures." Bai Haitang suddenly said.

Liu Wen shook his head. "The Human Alliance will not intervene casually. This is outside the defense line. Expeditioning the intelligent machine civilization is also a huge burden for the Human Alliance. Moreover, for the Human Alliance, as long as it is an alien race, the death of many is a happy event. Therefore, even if they intervene, it will be after most of the alien civilizations have been destroyed, and they will directly take over the corresponding star field and give it to the pioneering fleet as a reward territory."

Michelle suggested: "Perhaps we can expand the scope of our alliance. After all, the direction of the omnic attack is not limited to our side."

"Indeed. Send out more reconnaissance vessels to broadcast to surrounding civilizations and establish a communication channel for communication."

Liu Wen saw an opportunity in this. He wondered if his idea could come true. If so, the development of the territory would surely be accelerated.
