From the inexplicable message they received from the exploration fleet thousands of years ago, to their defeat and capture in the interstellar war, to entering this satellite prison, all the things that puzzled them were explained in that instant.
There are many civilizations in the universe. Due to the different environments for survival and evolution, all kinds of strange things may appear, and high-moral civilizations are naturally not a rare thing.
Some powerful civilizations possess very advanced technology and do not worry about precious energy issues at all. They do not need to rely on external expansion to obtain rare elements. They are more inclined to dominate the order of a region rather than relying on their absolute technological advantages to invade and massacre.
The civilization they are facing this time may be up to standard in terms of technology, but it is obviously another kind of weirdo in terms of morality.
The Archon suspected that the main intelligent race of the Magic Empire, with extremely abundant materials and a long period of stability, would prefer peace rather than war, but the upper echelons obviously did not think so. Such conflicts led to such a unique defensive counterattack strategy!
If the enemy attacks first, then the war and judgment against the evil invaders will become justified. This is the meaning of the existence of bait!
The more he thought about it, the colder he felt in his heart, but fortunately, it was not all bad news. At least, without a sufficient reason, the other party should not launch a large-scale invasion of the Geometry civilization.
"So you were also lured here by this bait?" The Archon looked at the Light people who were also prisoners and felt a sense of sympathy.
"No, in fact, I am the leader of an interstellar mercenary group. I was ordered to rescue several serious criminals imprisoned in this satellite prison. Due to the agreement we made before, it is not convenient to disclose it. As for the result... well, you have seen it now."
The Wright man sighed. Although he didn't explain the details, everything was self-evident! The Geometry people were full of sympathy. No wonder the other party reminded them that this prison looked simple, but it was actually very scary. It turned out that he had personal experience as evidence.
After jointly criticizing the sinister behavior of the Magic Empire, the relationship between the two sides immediately became much closer. However, while being friendly on the surface, both sides also had their own thoughts on obtaining more information from each other.
Most of what the Light people talked about were the various "settings" of the Magic Empire, and they only occasionally mentioned their experiences as interstellar mercenaries before their capture and how famous they were, but anyone could see that there was a lot of boasting in their words.
The Geometricians have no intention of concealing some basic information about the current galaxy, or perhaps they think this low-level intelligence has no value, but this is exactly what the parliament lacks the most.
At the end of the negotiations, the Lights specifically reminded these Geometry people that after they lost the war, the other side would most likely ask for an exorbitant amount of money, put forward an infuriating condition, and then deliberately show weakness to make them feel that they had a chance to fight, and then take advantage of the situation to control the entire star field.
The consuls agreed with this deeply. After knowing the other party's sinister behavior, they would naturally not be deceived by those appearances!
…
While several people were discussing, in the capital of the Magic Kingdom, the Eternal Star, senior members of the parliament and the speaker were observing the situation in the satellite prison through the projection of magic.
Seeing that the other party had been completely fooled, Aurora said with a smile, "Aren't these alien civilizations a little too easy to fool?"
This attempt to use prisoners to extract intelligence was undoubtedly very successful. While explaining the reason for the "backwardness" of this star system, it was also able to obtain the greatest amount of intelligence without causing strong vigilance on the other side.
According to those Geometric Star People, there are fifteen civilizations in this galaxy that can reach the galaxy level and achieve long-distance navigation. Among them, there are three level six civilizations with strength comparable to theirs. Since the technological levels between them are not much different, the overall situation is peaceful.
There is no way. A galaxy is too big. The diameter alone reaches hundreds of thousands of light years. That is to say, it takes hundreds of thousands of years to fly from one side to the other at the speed of light. If there is no wormhole technology, perhaps a civilization cannot travel across the entire galaxy from its birth to its demise.
"Then what should we ask for as compensation?" Vittorio said thoughtfully.
This is undoubtedly a rare opportunity. A galaxy-level civilization possesses too many technologies that they need, but they certainly cannot ask for these low-end technologies directly, otherwise it will arouse the other party's suspicion.
"Maybe we can ask for an entire star system!" Harof suggested. As long as they have the physical object, they can use material analysis to decipher and replicate the opponent's technology. This is also the advantage of magic.
The other speakers were a little worried about whether the other party would agree. You know, that was an entire star system! It contained at least one star and several transformed planets. Before this, they had never thought that these huge celestial bodies could be used for trading! "If it's just a star system, there shouldn't be any problem." Lin En said calmly. The star system under the control of the geometric civilization was very vast. When sending quantum entanglement messages before, there were hundreds of connected light spots.
Lin En even felt that what they asked for was too little. Since he had already told the other party that he was asking for a high price, he naturally had to ask for more.
The broken window effect should be very useful against most intelligent creatures.

When he was searching the memories of those geometric aliens before, there was one thing that interested him very much, and that was the so-called element seven.
It is this unique element that allows the Geometry civilization to achieve a technological leap and become one of the most powerful civilizations in the galaxy.
After several hours of discussion, the compensation quota was officially announced - five star systems, one hundred active warships and ten thousand tons of element 7!
When this news was passed back to the mother world, the leaders of the Geometry Civilization were extremely angry. This condition was humiliating, and element seven was the foundation of the Geometry Civilization's strength and could not be handed over easily!
In the eyes of many disk leaders, they could not be considered defeated in the last galactic war. Although they lost more than fifty of the most advanced galactic-class warships, they also killed the high-dimensional biological weapons sent by the other side. Judging from the scene, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are evenly matched...
