Having unlimited energy means having unlimited resources and wealth. Based on this important condition, sufficient resources can be invested in the field of scientific research.Civilizations with nuclear fusion often invest tens of thousands of times more resources in scientific research than low-level civilizations.For civilizations that have not solved their energy problems, civilizations with nuclear fusion have leapt to another level. Faced with this gap, no amount of social reform can even it out.

"Sunfire."

Ivan stood in front of the valve of the electromagnetic coil, his face was illuminated by the flash of refrigerant, and the eyes under the sunglasses reflected the blazing stars.Witnessing the scene in front of him, he was immersed in great joy, standing motionless like a sculpture.

For the Menes Empire, the success of nuclear fusion not only represents the upgrading of industry, but also symbolizes the soaring level of power!

According to his personal experience accumulated in experiments, it can be known that once the practitioners of the Sun Golden Sutra approach the stars, they will grow by leaps and bounds.

Yiwen stayed near the sun intermittently for eight months at the level of the fourth-level sun gold level, and the improvement he got surpassed his decades of hard work, which is enough to show how beneficial stellar activities are to the cultivation of the Sun Gold Sutra.Now that they have the technology to make a small sun, all the holy knights are practicing the Sun Golden Sutra "near the stars". In time, the military strength of the empire will not be improved rapidly! ?

"Hahaha!"

Immersed in imagining the future, Ivan finally couldn't help laughing out loud, and his face was vaguely hideous under the shadow of the fire.

"Master, master! A shadow creature was found in the Silver Scale Lake in the northern highlands!" At this moment, Xiaoxi's voice came from the watch, interrupting his thoughts.

"What? Is the source of the news reliable?" Ivan suppressed his smile instantly, and his expression became serious.

"I have verified it with the information of the Federation Network. I am 100% sure that it is a shadow creature. The incubation period is more than a month. The time they sneaked into Heberon Star is almost a few days before you attack the Fortress of the East. You can initially judge the planet. On the surface, there are similar fish that slipped through the net.” When talking about serious matters, Xiaoxi has no funny image of a comedian at all, and even the background music when speaking becomes low and solemn.

"Shadow creatures are so-called planetary viruses... Is there anyone nearby? Who discovered them? Have they been transformed into shadow creatures?" Considering the other party's ability to pollute, Ivan nervously asked three questions.

"There used to be a group of highland lizards nearby, but now they have disappeared without a trace. They have obviously been transformed and eroded. The witnesses who discovered the shadow creatures were a group of holy knights. Creatures have a certain degree of restraint, and they have no signs of being eroded and transformed. Now the shadow creatures have been eliminated by me using space-based weapons. According to the battle data, it can be judged that they are still in the first form. They are obviously afraid of light and fire. There is no resistance in front of you."

"Why didn't Skynet detect it?"

"The Skynet system is designed for evil disasters. Most of the detection satellites are mechanical life forms created by you. They are only good at detecting the breath of nightmares. The current enemies are shadow creatures. Those detection satellites are obviously outdated. The owner should update the equipment in time. "

"I see……"

Ivan fell silent, raised his head and glanced at the small stars in the electromagnetic circle, calmed down and asked:

"How much money is left in the empire's account?"

"300 billion federal currency, most of which is the aid given to you by the Dragon King...Master, you have received so much money from others, shouldn't you be a little more thoughtful?" Xiaoxi replied while making a digression.

"There should be more points!"

Ivan nodded approvingly, his squinted eyes flickered, and then waved his hand: "Go to the people of the Federation and tell them that Heberon Star has nuclear fusion technology and has discovered shadow creatures. Remember, you must We must tell them that we found the shadow creatures on our own initiative, and we successfully eliminated them in the first place."

"As ordered."

Xiaoxi understood what he meant in a second, and fell silent immediately.

one-one-one-one-one

The reason Ivan did this was, of course, to attract military assistance from the Federation.

As the saying goes, the enemy of an enemy is a friend, and now the Shadow World is the biggest strategic enemy of the Federation, and it is time to unite all forces.Hyperion has also been invaded by shadow creatures, so it is naturally one of the Federation's potential allies.

Moreover, the characteristics of shadow creatures are devouring and transformation. In the absence of natural enemies, they can devour an entire planet within a few weeks, transforming all the lives on the planet into shadow creatures.Then, using the planet itself as a mobile unit, it headed towards other planets with life forms, and continuously ejected pollutants in the process of crossing the universe.

In other words, a planet transformed by pollution is a large source of pollution.

Because of this, no matter how stupid the top federal officials are, they will not allow Heberen to become a source of pollution, and there must be more or less military assistance.However, if the military strength of Hyperion Star is too weak, there is a danger of being directly 'chemotherapy', so it is necessary to demonstrate the nuclear fusion technology it just possessed.

After all, with nuclear fusion technology, it is equivalent to having unlimited resources and consumption of shadow creatures.Even if it is at a disadvantage for a while, as long as it is not occupied in a short period of time, it can rely on a steady stream of resources to drag the shadow creatures to death.

……

While Xiaoxi was in contact with the Federation, Ivan also tried to send a letter of help to Bakar.I hope that the other party can rely on their own influence to mediate a wave and bring more benefits to Hyperion Star.

However, Bakar seemed to be busy with other things and did not reply to him immediately.Afterwards, he contacted the temporary person in charge of the Dragon Clan, but the other party said that he could not make the decision, and could only tell the other party Yiwen's request when the Dragon King was free.

"I'm free... When you're free, I'm done fighting!"

After Ivan turned off the video communication, he let out a wave of anger, and then took a few deep breaths to calm down:

"Xiao Xi, what does the Federation say?"

"Reporting to the master, they agreed to military assistance, but they will send special personnel to investigate. They claim that they must assess the military strength of the empire in detail, and then judge the type and intensity of assistance based on military strength." Xiaoxi's youthful and beautiful image soon Turn on the screen, and said a little angrily.

"Evaluate?"

Ivan recited the word silently, chewed for a while, frowned and asked:

"How exactly?"

"If the military strength of the empire fails to pass the assessment, they will send troops to help the empire defend the satellite. As a condition for protecting Heberon, we must hand over the military command. If it passes, it's easy to say, it's just a unilateral military material assistance ..."

"..."

Yiwen sat back on the seat without saying a word, lowered his head and thought for a while, then looked up at Xiaoxi:

"What do you think?"

"The federation has a good reputation at the strategic level and is trustworthy, but there are also precedents of abandoning allies. And we can't judge their standards. Once Hyperion is garrisoned, it is really equivalent to a colony." Xiaoxi Youyou Said.

"Yes."

Ivan raised his head and looked at the ceiling, his eyes reflected the silver chandelier, he let out a deep breath, and fell into a fierce ideological struggle again.

It is of course a good thing for the Federation to agree to provide military assistance. Garrisoning troops on Hyperion can also reduce the danger of the empire being defeated by shadow creatures.But there is a saying that it is easy to ask the gods, but it is difficult to send the gods away...and you have to hand over the military command... If they make any moves in the future, wouldn't the Menesian Empire just let them toss?

But if the military assistance is refused, can Heberen really survive the invasion of shadow creatures?

Although it has nuclear fusion technology on the surface, for the Menes Empire, which is short of scientific research talents, the various benefits brought by unlimited energy cannot immediately be transformed into technical and military advantages.Once confronted with a large-scale shadow creature, I am afraid that there is little chance of winning.

Chapter 1 Chapter [-] Good Opportunities

"Let them come."

After thinking about it for a long time, Ivan finally sorted out his thoughts and decided to accept the Federation's military assessment.

The shadow world and the behemoths like the Federation have fought three battles without perishing. The overall strength can be imagined. Once a large-scale shadow creature appears in the Far East star field, Heberen star is bound to be in danger.Before survival and sovereignty, of course survival is the priority. As for the matter of garrisoning troops, let's take a step at a time.

"I understand."

Xiaoxi closed her head obediently, turned her beautiful eyes, observed his expression at the moment and tentatively said:

"Then how does the master plan to pass the Federation's military assessment? Judging from the information I have consulted, the Federation military has very strict requirements on allies, and having nuclear fusion technology is only the most basic condition. From their point of view, Heberen Star's strength is hardly worth mentioning... In order to prevent colonization, what specific preparations should we make?"

"I'll send you some information first."

As Ivan said, he sat up straight and turned his gaze to the input interface next to the computer screen. Complex data streams flashed quickly in his pupils.After a brief period of deliberation, he compiled the digitized mental power into information signals, as if transferring files with an external device, and imported them into Xiaoxi's database.

Due to the huge amount of these materials, it took him a quarter of an hour to transfer all the data in the memory chip to Xiaoxi with his current mental strength.
