"Dear Governor, I am the captain and chief consul of the 37th Column of the Geometry Civilization. Please forgive us for our previous offense! In fact, this conflict is just a misunderstanding. We went to this galaxy not with malice, but with goodwill and friendship."
There was a faint white glow all around the consul, and while he was delivering the message, his spire-like body also split apart, forming a 90-degree bend from top to bottom, which was usually a courtesy for lower-ranking people meeting higher-ranking people.
After an interstellar war and several attacks, the Archons were 90% sure that the other side was a super civilization whose technological level surpassed that of the mother world, so their attitude was naturally lowered to the extreme.
After all, this conversation is so important that it directly concerns the survival of the mother world.
"Goodwill and friendship?"
Before Lin En could answer, Arad, who was mixed in with the divine servants, stood up and asked sharply, "Are you referring to the sudden and unreasonable attack on the detector we sent?"
"It's not without reason, Governor!" the Archon explained hastily. "We detected that this probe was accelerating even at a very close distance. It may have great malice, so we made a tentative..."
"Feint attack!" The consul thought for a long time before he uttered the word.
"This is completely your one-sided statement. We have accurately calculated the trajectory of the attack. If we don't evade it in advance, these fifteen energy cannons will hit the detector from different directions." Arad said with a sneer, and Raphael on the side also added.
"Also, this probe was just patrolling the border of the galaxy as usual. After discovering your movements, it sped up to confirm the situation, but it did not expect to be attacked most violently..."
The words of the two people made the consul choke. It was true that they were the first to take action, but if the other party had not made such a move that could be easily misunderstood, he would have been more cautious.
But the next moment, the Archon realized that he had made a huge misjudgment, that is, he took the acceleration of the detector as a sign of attack.
This may be true for traditional propulsion systems. After all, deceleration requires a cycle. The most advanced warships of Geometric civilization usually take about twenty atomic minutes to go from sub-light speed to full hover.
But the curvature engine is different. It is very likely that it will slow down from the highest speed to the static level within a thousand atomic seconds! Thinking of this, the Archon felt a tremor in his body, as if he was on the verge of disintegration. In other words, it was because of his misjudgment that this interstellar war that should not have happened was finally caused...
Even if he returned to his home world today, he would probably be imprisoned or even executed for the crime of provoking war.
But now was obviously not the time to consider personal honor and disgrace, so the Archon quickly explained, "I think this is a not-so-nice misunderstanding, Governor... Our ships use antimatter sources to drive propulsion devices, and it is relatively difficult to change direction and slow down at super-high speeds, so speeding up within one million kilometers is usually considered a prelude to an attack..."
The Archon sincerely recounted the process of his misjudgment of the situation and the attack, and said that as the culprit of the war between the two civilizations, he could self-destruct to apologize! This certainly could not completely make up for the losses of the war, but the Geometry Civilization could also provide corresponding compensation.
"Compensation? How do you want to compensate? Is it a galaxy, or a hundred galaxy-class battleships?" A hint of disdain emerged on Raphael's face, but he was suppressing his excitement and joy in his heart.
The super weapon named black hole by Lin En is even more terrifying, and can even repel the Lord God!
The consul naturally did not know what Raphael was thinking. In his opinion, this was an obvious mockery. However, it was normal when you think about it. Facing a civilization with a higher level of technology, it is not an easy task to come up with compensation that satisfies the other party.
At least it's not something I can decide...
"Dear Governor, I cannot give you a direct promise on the issue of compensation. I need to consult the leaders before making a decision." The consul lowered his attitude again.
"I've given you a whole month, and you still haven't come up with a charter?" Lin En suddenly said.
These words made the consul feel a chill in his heart. He realized that the reason he was able to contact the mother world before was because the other party had deliberately allowed it. It was even possible that the entire communication process was under the other party's surveillance, and they didn't even notice it at all.
"In that case, I'll give you a few more days to think about it carefully." Lin En waved his hand, and a dozen gods' servants took away a group of strange-looking geometric aliens.
The Archon returned to the spaceship alone under the close supervision of several divine servants, and used the ship's optical computer to meet with the waiting disc leaders, reporting the latest news and his own conjectures.
However, it is obvious that such a big thing cannot be discussed to a conclusion in a short period of time, and there are many voices of both approval and opposition within the company.

Fortunately, Lin En did not ask them to give an immediate answer. However, during these few days, the captured Geometry people did not receive any preferential treatment but were imprisoned.
This prison was built at the center of the moon. After hearing about the satellite prison from the archon, Lin En temporarily manipulated the divine domain to create it. It was very large in scope, but looked a bit crude.
Hundreds of Geometricians were imprisoned separately. In addition, Lin En also deliberately used his divine power to pinch some prisoners in based on the intelligent creatures of the main world, such as the Moko people and the Wright people, to serve as their roommates to facilitate the next plan.
The technological level of this alien civilization is very high, and even the slightest leak of information would benefit them greatly. However, since they are now pretending to be a civilization from a higher dimension, directly asking for some 'low-end' technology would most likely arouse suspicion.
In addition, the "desolation" of this galaxy is seriously inconsistent with the setting they boasted about. It may confuse the other party for a while, but it may not be possible after some time, so there must be a more reasonable explanation.
