Chapter 137 Beware of Each Other

"... Is there any way to have the best of both worlds?"

Xu Yunjin, Wang Yufan, Lan Bo and others on the side were at a loss. Although they were very capable and smart, they were not qualified politicians. There were not many conflicts of interest on the Noah, nor were there any major contradictions. There was almost no political struggle, so there were few talents in this area.

Yu Yifeng also frowned and pondered, turning over and over in his mind. He was not good at these intrigues. But now, how he wished that there was a political think tank on Earth around him to give him advice...

Countries on Earth always have conflicts because of some interests, but when the difference in strength is not very large, the probability of war is not high.

For example, the United States and India, although there is a gap in strength, will not fight because of a few quarrels. Countries always tacitly test each other, play political cards with each other, and reach a consensus in constant competition. The most important thing is that no one will lose face!

The current situation is somewhat different. Humans have already created a tough image that cannot be changed... This is a bit like Russia's international image. So every move of humans should also conform to such rules.

Moreover... Humans do not have too many ways out, and there are only a few measures to deal with it. Hesitation does not increase the success rate, but delays precious time.

"Damn it!" Yu Yifeng was ruthless in his heart, and he could no longer care about so much. He picked up a pen and drafted a radio message, "That's it!"

...

The patience of the green light people is excellent.

They evolved from plants, and in the primitive period, their lifespan was as high as thousands of years. Since the interstellar era, the vigorous development of medical technology and genetic technology has even allowed their lifespan to reach the level of ten thousand years.

So it is not an exaggeration to say that they are all the young generation.

The long lifespan has also made them develop a docile character. They like to sleep in the sun, sleeping for 40-80 hours (human time), and then get up to work for dozens of hours. During this period, they do not need to eat or go to the toilet, and at most drink a little water.

A little sunlight, water and air can survive, such a life is simply too comfortable.

However, during this period, all the green light people were obviously not in a good mood. There are obviously fewer people basking in the "light", and the tempers of many government officials are on the verge of exploding...

At the astronomical observatory at the top, a large number of Green Light senior officials gathered here, and their blades were covered with light white mist, and it was obvious that they were not in a relaxed mood.

As expected, their radio should have been transmitted to humans a few days ago, and it is unknown how the other party will react.

Around this point, the real power faction of the entire Green Light Fleet is divided into two factions: radical and conservative.

The radicals believe that they should respond to the other party with a tougher attitude, and even threaten to go to war. The conservatives believe that they should discuss with the other party in a more gentle tone.

Although this unknown civilization seems to have a bad temper, it only symbolically deterred it and did not refrain from firing. So it should not be a civilization like a war maniac. In this case, the two sides have the possibility of communication.

"No matter what, we must get this star... No, a planet will do!"

This view is the unanimous opinion of all Green Light people. They need resources and they need to rest. Even if... at all costs! Their spacecraft will definitely not last until the next star, and even the conservatives think so.

However, going to war is the worst option. The Green Lights think that they may not be able to defeat the other side. But if they will die sooner or later, there is no way to go to war...

"Captain Fario, I have to say that your wording is too blunt. Can we still force the other side in this state?"

A conservative elder chattered. Ever since the string of radio waves was sent out, he has always had a very uncomfortable feeling. The Green Lights have always been a polite civilization, and their social relations are even maintained by "etiquette".

Fario's message probably means this: "They are a regular fleet of the Green Light civilization. Because of the spacecraft itself, they need to come to this planetary system to replenish energy. They advocate peace and friendship and hope that the other side can give up this star. They also hope that the other side can exercise restraint to avoid a full-scale war between civilizations..."

Well, the tone is actually okay.

After all, the Noah is only 15 kilometers in diameter, which is not actually very large. The Green Lights naturally think that it is just a small spaceship of a certain civilization.

Small spaceships are not capable of deciding the outcome of a war between two civilizations... Just like when a small American destroyer encounters the military of another country, it is impossible to start a war without the command of a superior.

From this perspective, their way of thinking is similar to that of humans.

Of course, the Green Light Man did not tell the truth. This spaceship is not a regular fleet at all, but the main force of their civilization! Such a super-large spaceship requires a lot of manpower and material resources to build each one. The entire civilization has only three such spaceships, and one was destroyed...

They said this just to make the other side overestimate their strength to reduce the possibility of a war. When the spaceship is in a very bad condition, they can only talk nonsense like this. After all, the two civilizations have never come into contact, and it is normal to be wary of each other...

However, all these hidden subtexts were hit into the air, because the new human civilization was actually weak and could not understand their language at all...

It must be said that so far, the human disguise operation has been very successful!

The conservative elder was panicked and felt that the captain's statement was problematic, or very impolite... This is someone else's territory! He rushed in and asked others to leave?

"...Elder, this is not their colony."

Maer on the side kept explaining that an elder-level figure had a considerable status in the clan, so it was necessary to give him a satisfactory answer.

"We checked every earth-like planet and did not find any colonial buildings, which means... they were just passing by, or performing some mission here."

"If this star is not important to them, we need to maintain a certain tough attitude. If we can take it directly, it would be great!"

Captain Fario also nodded, which was his idea.

As the distance approached, the telescope photos became clearer, so he was constantly observing the Noah. If we really want to go to war, we must first investigate the enemy's combat power.

This is a strange spaceship, with a spherical shape. From the external detection, its technological level is very strange...

Some of the gun barrels seem to be made of very low-level metal? It's a bit like an alloy of a low-level civilization... rather than metal made in a vacuum and zero-gravity field. They are coated with a layer of paint on the outside. I don't know what it's for. Is it to make it look better? Or to dissipate heat?

The Green Light scientists are a little confused...

Well, let's ignore these for now. What really puzzles the Green Light people is that this spaceship is inexplicably floating in the Martian atmosphere!

Yes, it's floating, as if... ignoring gravity!

They didn't find any thermal radiation, and the ship seemed to be completely integrated into the environment. If it doesn't actively send signals, the Green Light people can only find it when they fly very close.

In other words, the opponent's spaceship is likely to rely on anti-gravity means! Seeing this, Fario's heart "stomped"...

"Yes, it's anti-gravity, it must be!" A Green Light senior executive suddenly shouted in fear. He didn't believe that such a thin atmosphere could support a spacecraft by buoyancy...

So... it must be anti-gravity!

Fario and Mal felt a little fear for no reason. Anti-gravity technology means that the scientific level is two orders of magnitude higher than theirs. Two orders of magnitude! If they really fight, they will be crushed!

"Received, received the other party's radio wave!" At this time, another scientist shouted.
