Aren't they afraid of dying?
Lin Shuguang was even more surprised.
Born on Dawn Star, he did not experience the war between humanity and the Lator civilization.
All the information he knew about space pirate civilization came from historical records.
Therefore, he was unaware of the madness of these space pirate civilizations.
Before communication could be successfully established, Bai Yixuan answered Lin Shuguang's questions.
"These space pirate civilizations are very scattered and have no fixed settlements."
Bai Yixuan shrugged: "Like flies."
"Once they set their sights on a civilization, they can launch a persistent offensive from all directions."
Even if you can't beat them, they'll still disgust you to death.
"Since ancient times, there has only been a thousand days of thievery, not a thousand days of guarding against thieves."
"A moment of carelessness on the battlefield can allow them to seize some spoils of war."
"That's how the flagship of the Lator civilization came to be."
A bitter smile immediately appeared in Lin Shuguang's eyes: "Such behavior..."
"They're somewhat like hyenas from the Earth era."
"Huh?" Bai Yixuan was slightly taken aback, then burst into laughter. "Yes! It's a hyena!"
"I didn't expect Councilor Lin to be knowledgeable about these thousand-year-old documents. Not bad, not bad!"
A line of bright white text flashed across the holographic projection.
The link has been successfully established.
The next second, the image gradually became clearer.
Everyone's smiles vanished, and they looked at the holographic image in front of them with serious expressions.
The image gradually became clear.
But the atmosphere in the expeditionary fleet and the Kepler-452 star system gradually became tense.
The dark interior of the ship contrasted sharply with the brightly lit command centers of human civilization, leaving humanity with an extremely bad first impression.
In the dim light, large lizards covered with fine, dense gray scales stood upright, looking at the camera.
"Holy crap, it's fucking ugly..."
Sitting next to Bai Yixuan, Hong Fan's lips twitched slightly, and he squeezed out a few words through his teeth without making a sound.
For the first time, Hong Fan felt a sense of disgust towards holographic images with such clear image quality.
In the holographic image, he could clearly see the orange-yellow vertical pupils of these lizardmen, the thick mucus secreted from the corners of their eyes, and the dirty patterns on their scales.
He even watched as one of the lizardmen stuck out its long, forked tongue and licked the sticky fluid secreted from the corner of its eye!
Every scene caused Hong Fan both physical and psychological discomfort.
"If it weren't for Professor Lü's orders, I would have blasted that bastard to smithereens..."
Bai Yixuan, standing beside Hong Fan, silently nodded in agreement with his remarks.
Of course, he didn't show much exaggerated reaction on his face; he still had that extremely serious expression.
If the two high-ranking leaders of the expeditionary fleet had this attitude, one can imagine how the crew members below them felt.
Inside the command center, a slightly chaotic murmur of discussion arose.
"Quiet!"
Bai Yixuan coughed lightly and whispered, "I'm about to turn on the microphone."
Good, having learned from their previous experience, the Human Alliance Expeditionary Fleet muted themselves beforehand!
As it turns out, muting the microphone was an absolutely correct decision!
...
As a series of gibberish sounds emanated from the speaker, the translated subtitles provided by Zero appeared at the bottom of the holographic image.
[Dear human civilization, we are the Eugene Civilization, and we extend our respects to you.]
You may call me Corey.
Bai Yixuan nodded slightly, maintaining his original sitting posture, and looked down at the other person with a condescending attitude.
However, Bai Yixuan's behavior did not provoke any resentment from Eugene Wenming, or rather, not any overt resentment.
Quite the opposite!
Whether it was the expeditionary fleet or Kepler-452c, which was 9 light-years away; whether it was Bai Yixuan, or Lü Yongchang and Zhao Zijie, they all clearly noticed that the other party's attitude had become more respectful and humble.
What? How did you figure that out?
The leading lizardman even abandoned his standing posture and prostrated himself on the ground. Wasn't that considered respect and humility?!
Unless, in their civilization, prostrating on the ground is used to express anger and contempt, that's another story.
However, the possibility was so small that everyone immediately dismissed it from their consideration.
...
“Professor, this Eugene civilization may have an extremely deep-seated admiration for the strong.” Nine light-years away, Academician Lin Zile of the Sociology Department said to Lü Yongchang, “Not only that, their civilization probably has a very strict class system.”
Lü Yongchang nodded, a hint of seriousness in his eyes.
"This is both a good thing and a bad thing."
Lin Zile thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "That's right!"
“If we can completely subdue them, they could be high-quality cannon fodder on the battlefield.”
"But if..."
A hint of apprehension flashed in Lin Zile's eyes.
With a strict class system and a strong admiration for the powerful, these lizardmen are fully capable of committing extremely insane suicidal attacks!
Coupled with their identity as a space pirate civilization...
Lin Zile suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head.
Lü Yongchang naturally understood the meaning behind Lin Zile's words.
He stretched out his finger and tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair, carefully considering it.
"Zijie".
"Professor, what's wrong?" Zhao Zijie quickly replied.
Lu Yongchang's expression was very serious: "Tell Bai Yixuan that if this Eugene civilization encounters any problems, abandon the subsidiary civilization plan and eliminate it as quickly as possible."
Zhao Zijie's expression tightened, and he immediately nodded and sent a message to Bai Yixuan, who was 9 light-years away.
...
"Cough cough!" Bai Yixuan's cough came from behind.
Lin Shuguang quickly turned to look at Bai Yixuan, who was sitting in the command position, ready to learn a lot about diplomacy from him.
This is based on real-world experience!
It's definitely much more useful than those theoretical students in the sociology department!
At this moment, this is what Lin Shuguang was thinking.
Facing Lin Shuguang's curious gaze, Bai Yixuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a somewhat confident smile.
Then, he slowly began to speak:
"What's up?"
Lin Shuguang: ? ? !
What the heck?!
Is this the confidence of Commander Bai Yixuan?!
He suddenly turned his head again to look at the holographic projection in front of him.
Looking at the lizard's head slowly rising and its tongue constantly extending and retracting, Lin Shuguang couldn't help but raise his hand to his forehead.
It’s over!
He had to save the day again!
Just as he was mentally preparing himself and getting ready to step in to save the day, a low gurgling sound rang out again.
[Dear human civilization, could you please tell us the purpose of your visit?]
With your power, you shouldn't need to get involved in the farce between ants.
