Chapter 177 Star Alliance

Half of the earth is azure, dotted with white clouds and dark green mountains and forests, and the other half is pitch black, with dotted lights in the cities converging into golden rivers.It moved away at a fast speed, and soon after, the silver-gray moon also passed by. When it was the closest, the strangely shaped rocks on the surface of the moon seemed to fly by. In fact, there is a big difference between the two, just The windows of the spaceship viewing platform have the function of magnifying the distant scenery.

Looking up at the starry sky from a long distance, I only feel that the light of those stars is terrifying, but in the universe, darkness and emptiness are its main colors. It takes a long time for the spacecraft to pass by a planet, and the big Most of them are bare, and the scenery is no richer than the surface of the moon. After seeing too much, Rong Yuan also lost interest. Apart from the normal daily routine, he took the time to memorize all the functions of the spaceship by heart, and also learned the language of Bhikkhu. Speaking and writing.From Rong Yuan’s point of view, there is no language more profound and complicated than Sugar Language. Although Bhikkhu Star Language has more letters and symbols than Nut Language, the sentence structure is very similar to Sugar Language, and he has mastered the basic pronunciation methods. After memorizing a certain amount of vocabulary, the understanding of this language has almost no obstacles for him.

So when Paco woke up from hibernation, what he saw was Rong Yuan's true face.Before that, when they met, Rong Yuan wore a translation mask and changed his appearance with a mimetic suit.

The octopus crawled out of the fish tank wetly, leaving several tentacles on the ground.He dried his body and carefully wiped all the accessories on his body before going to Rong Yuan.As soon as he saw the stranger sitting in front of the viewing platform, he was taken aback, pointed at Rong Yuan with two long tentacles, and shouted: "Who are you?"

Rong Yuan glanced at him and said with disgust: "Idiot, who else is on this spaceship besides you and me?"

"...Oh." Paco was skeptical at first, but when Rong Yuan's cold eyes glanced at him, he didn't know which nerve was touched in him, so he immediately believed it, put down his tentacles and walked carelessly to Rong Yuan's side, and put a few tentacles aside. On the platform next to the viewing platform, he asked inexplicably, "There are only two of us here, why are you still using the mimic suit?"

Rong Yuan said: "This is what I am like." His tone was understated, but in fact all his attention was focused on Paco, observing his reaction.

——In the universe, is there any race with the same appearance as human beings?Did those people who left the earth in search of vitality in the past thrive in the vast universe?

Paco was stunned. He blinked, stared at Rong Yuan for a long time, and then shouted: "Ah! You are not a Bhikkhu, you are from Landia!"

—Landia?

The dull alien reacted for a few seconds, and suddenly complained: "You lied to me!"

"What did I lie to you?" Rong Yuan was thinking about getting more information about Landia out of his mouth, and asked nonchalantly after hearing the words.

Paco said angrily: "You lied to me that you are also a monk!"

"Have I ever said that?" Rong Yuan said, "I just happen to know Bhikkhu Xingyu, and then you think so on your own."

Paco was tongue-tied, thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be exactly like this at the beginning, but he always felt that something was wrong.He thought about it over and over again, and finally felt that his judgment was wrong, so he sincerely apologized and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault, I misunderstood you."

Rong Yuan waved his hand generously and said, "It's okay."

Hearing that, Paco was relieved, he grinned and said, "You are so kind, not only did you save me from Shuilanxing, but you didn't care about my faults, you are not at all the same as the legendary Landia people."

"What is the legend like?" Rong Yuan asked pretending to be curious.

Paco was a little embarrassed—if the tangled expression on his octopus face indicated embarrassment—he didn’t want to talk about it, but under Rong Yuan’s eyes full of curiosity, or in his spirit of being a teacher, he After a while, Paco finally began to speak intermittently.This lecture lasted for several days.After Paco sleeps, he can stay awake for a long time, and Rong Yuan doesn't need regular and quantitative sleep to maintain his state, so apart from eating and going to the toilet, Rong Yuan always chats with Paco, and fills his mind with all the things about the Star Alliance. Everything is upside down.

It is said that it is the General Interstellar Federation, but in fact, the control range of this alliance stops at the Milky Way, and in this galaxy alone, the area explored and understood by the Alliance is less than one-tenth.There are more than one billion habitable stars that have been discovered so far, and nearly one-third of the planets have intelligent life or the trend of intelligent life will be produced, and the earth is one of them.However, there are only 380 planets that are truly members of the Interstellar Alliance. No matter which planet or the main race living on the planet, the development of all aspects must have reached the peak of intelligent creatures in the Milky Way.

Of the rest of the habitable planets, less than 5.00% of the planets know about the existence of the Star Alliance, and they also yearn to join the Alliance.Most of them are affiliated planets, providing a steady stream of talents and various supplies for the core planets of the alliance, such as growing vegetables that people on the alliance planets like, domesticating dangerous beasts, making beautiful clothes, and providing spaceships manufacturing base and workforce, etc.

The remaining 90.00% five habitable planets are ignorant of the existence of the alliance just like the earth, and are developing in a daze, wondering if they are the only intelligent creatures in the universe, and trying to find clues of the existence of aliens.Some of these livable stars are actually colonial stars. The alliance sends personnel to station on those planets, and uses their interests to drive the local natives to provide what they want; some are rich in precious mineral deposits, and the alliance will send people to mine the minerals. Abandon it; most of the planets do not actually have much use value, and the alliance leaves them to fend for themselves, under the pretense that they cannot interfere with the sovereignty and free development rights of other planets.

It is said that in the past, some people from high-level civilizations would go to the planets of low-level civilizations without authorization, massacre, manipulate the regime, teach the natives all kinds of advanced black technologies, disrupt the laws of historical development, and even be careless when wars break out It is also common to destroy one or two habitable stars.The aborigines begged all kinds of gods for the coming of the end of the world, but they didn't know that the end of the world was originally caused by man.There are also some people who, just to satisfy their own selfish desires or curiosity-seeking psychology, plunder and sell low-level intelligent creatures at will, and countless people are tortured and killed by them.

Since the establishment of the Interstellar Alliance and the enactment of the Interstellar Law, the management of this situation has gradually become strictly regulated. Regardless of whether you have joined the alliance or not, the right to life and personal freedom of intelligent life are recognized and protected by the law. will be punished horribly.

However, this is only bright on the surface. In private, some behaviors are repeatedly prohibited, such as what the earth has encountered, and even the alliance itself is one of its promoters.

The Interstellar Alliance is both loose and united. Its more than 1000 core planets have established different political systems. Some only focus on developing themselves, and some are committed to expanding their territory. They rule many planets and occasionally have conflicts with each other. , It will also be resolved under the mediation and negotiation of the alliance. Not to mention war, even friction is rarely seen.Because the universe is so big, as long as you dare to explore, at least for tens of thousands of years, any core planet will not have the problem of lack of resources. Under the premise of no conflict of interest, it is not difficult to maintain a happy life on the surface. In case of war , It can only be a loss-losing ending, everyone understands this truth.

Both the Penninglang Empire and the Landia Empire are countries that like to occupy more planets, but the two are almost on opposite sides of the Milky Way, and the straight-line distance between the two is at least [-] light years.It is [-] light-years from the Earth to the Peininglang Empire, and [-] light-years to the Biqiu Star, which is a subsidiary star of the Peininglang Empire.Although these octopuses are not very intelligent, they are hard-working and obedient. They are good at marine farming. Their strong and soft tentacles are capable of both physical and technical work, and they are also given preferential treatment in the Peininglang Empire.

Paco is an octopus alien who only likes to collect gossip. He knows a lot of things. An ordinary civilian of the Peininglang Empire might not even remember Landia's name clearly.Paco had seen some information about Landia, but because the distance between the two was too far, there might be communication between the upper echelons, but who would chat with aliens [-] light-years away when ordinary people have nothing to do?So Paco only knows that Landia is an empire that is not inferior to Pei Ninglang, and that their main intelligent race is very similar to Rong Yuan or the people on Earth, it is not clear except for the first time.

"But..." Paco looked carefully at Rong Yuan, and said with some uncertainty: "The Landia people in the pictures I saw seem to be different from you."

"What's different?" Rong Yuan asked.

Paco thought about it, but he couldn't figure out what made him feel the difference. After all, it was a picture he had seen a long time ago, and his memory was not so good that he could never forget it.So after thinking for a long time, he shook his head discouragedly and said, "I don't know."

Rong Yuan said with a mocking tone: "It's not surprising that people look different from each other. Don't you all look the same in Biqiu Xing?"

Thinking of the blue, red, white, black, yellow, spotted, long-striped, black-and-white, square-headed, round-headed and triangular-headed octopuses on his own planet, Paco felt relieved and said, "So That's right, I'm so stupid!"

After coping with it, Rong Yuan doesn't feel much sense of accomplishment, and now he wants to get a photo of the Lantian people to see the difference between them.If he could pretend to be a member of a powerful empire, it would surely make his trip much smoother.But Paco is confused, other aliens are not all like this, especially the "intelligent species" mentioned by Paco, whose intelligence can be especially respected among the intelligent creatures in the universe, one can imagine how smart it is.

After thinking for a while, Rong Yuan raised his head and was about to speak, but was surprised when he saw Paco's appearance, and asked, "What's wrong with your face?"
