Chapter 762 Eastern Alliance's Plan
Under the dark blue water, in the rippling water, harps and bells sounded, and the ethereal singing echoed in all directions.
This is a rare underwater concert hall, where mermaids shuttled through it, playing this melodious music together.
The rhythm of the music was soothing, as if it was undulating along the hills under the moon, freely relaxing and releasing, and the ethereal sound made people's souls break away from the mundane world and enter another brand new world, swimming freely and unrestrained.
The singing echoed, and the water was shimmering.
After a long time, the performance ended, and the audience in the underwater concert hall slowly came out of that immersed state. In just half an hour, it seemed like a lifetime ago.
"It's really good." After the end, many audiences were reluctant to leave.
"The singing of mermaids is always so special, as if it came from another world."
"Rather than saying it's another world, it should be a style and form completely different from the mainstream." Another audience commented.
"Most people take everything in the mainstream as the standard, and therefore have a sense of distinction. They think that things that are not mainstream must be special, not good enough, and have problems. This kind of unthinking judgment often makes them miss a lot."
"Haha, I understand what you mean, but for most people, it is easier to judge like this, isn't it? Not everyone is like us, and has the leisure to think."
"Everyone just lives with the flow."
"Let's go and watch the next show. There are still many beauties in this world that I haven't seen."
...
Eastern Star Region, Fei Ke Luo Star Region, 'Fei Huan'γ Residence Planet.
"Sir Shui Yanqing." A call woke the blue-haired singer from her contemplation.
"What's the matter?" Her light pink eyes with slender eyelashes were like beautiful gems on the seabed, which amazed others.
"Yes... the results of our clinical trial are out." The researcher who reported was stunned for a while, then regained his sanity and lowered his head to answer.
"What are the results?" Shui Yanqing felt a little happy in her heart. The hibernation technology finally had results.
"The results are very good. The people who have participated in the experiment have all experienced the process of falling asleep and waking up completely, and no accidents have occurred."
"In addition, according to the test, their bodies almost stop metabolizing during hibernation, which means that the cells will not continue to differentiate and age, just like freezing the biological age of the individual at a certain moment."
"Take me to see it." Although she knew that the results would not be false, Shui Yanqing couldn't help but want to see it with her own eyes.
"Okay."
Half an hour later, entering the core area of the institute, Shui Yanqing met the people who participated in the experiment. They were also somewhat fortunate and incredible. They were now accepting experience inquiries and various physical tests.
After entering here, Shui Yanqing slowed down her pace. She did not interrupt the work here, but quietly integrated into it, passing by the side of each member.
After the end, she walked out of the room alone, and the excitement in her heart slowly settled down.
Finally, the results came out. There was a bit of relief, and also a bit of sadness, because it was time for her to leave.
The internal problems of the Federation are getting worse and worse. Although the Feikeluo star field is relatively stable, it will be difficult to stay out of trouble in the future. As a singer, she can easily be brought to the forefront. If she does not leave now, it may be too late to leave in the future.
However, before leaving, she still wants to meet some people.
Two weeks later, Shui Yanqing met another singer whom she had known for a long time.
"Long time no see, Yanqing." Luo Fenghua was dressed in a snow-white dress, and her long hair was tied up with peach blossom beads, which was particularly moving.
"You too." Shui Yanqing was rarely wearing the usual researcher uniform today, but changed into a long dress with waves, which echoed her hair color.
After the two sat down, they first reminisced about the past, and then the topic slowly turned to the current situation.
"Half a year ago, I was still worried about how the Eastern Star Region could resist the Federation Center. I feel much more relaxed during this period." Luo Fenghua slightly raised his sleeves and poured tea for Shui Yanqing.
"Tilan led the fleet of the Emerald Dragon to shine in the Western Star Region and repelled the Fifth Fleet led by Pulin. This greatly reduced the prestige of the once powerful Federal Central Government and gave us a lot of breathing space." After pouring tea for herself, she sat down slowly.
"During this period, I discussed with Otiberius that we should take this opportunity to build a fleet belonging to the alliance, and not rely too much on the joint fleet contributed by various star regions." Unlike the Western Star Region, many star regions in the Eastern Star Region have already defected, so it is impossible to form a strong joint fleet.
"I see." Shui Yanqing nodded slightly. She understood that this was Luo Fenghua's invitation to him. After all, among the remaining major forces in the Eastern Star Region, except for the faction led by Luo Fenghua and Otiberius, the pharmaceutical giant alliance led by her is the largest.
"I will support you, but I also have another idea to tell you." After hesitating for a moment, Shui Yanqing decided to speak directly and didn't intend to beat around the bush.
"Oh, what's the matter?" Luo Fenghua could see that Shui Yanqing had something to say today.
"It's about the 'Deep Sea Union'." Shui Yanqing uttered a relatively obscure word.
"About my origin and bloodline, I think you should know something."
"This, I do know something." Luo Fenghua nodded, after all, Shui Yanqing is very special among the singing girls.
"I have the bloodline of the 'Light Scale', which is a new race born from mermaids, so I have a close relationship with many mermaid tribes." Shui Yanqing stroked her long hair with one hand. "
As a faction that continued from the Twilight Age, the 'Deep Sea Union' is not the mainstream of the Federation now, and only a small number of mermaid tribes in the Federation believe in the ideas of this faction." "
In other words, most of the mermaid tribes that believe in the 'Deep Sea Union' are not within the framework of the Federation system." She continued to explain.
"This has led to few people now understanding the ideas of this faction and how they view the world..." Shui Yanqing told Luo Fenghua step by step about the past of the Deep Sea Union.
In the Twilight Age, in order to avoid the powerful Mechanical Council, they entered the universe in advance, and then were caught up by the Mechanical Council in the glorious Transcendent Age. After the Chaos Disaster occurred, the Deep Sea Union was less affected, and some members returned to Earth, passing down the lineage of the mermaid tribe on Earth.
"These are past events that happened before the First Era. After that, mermaids, like many other tribes, began to expand their voyages when humans entered the starry sea again in the Fourth Era."
"They reunited with the mermaid tribe that had been wandering in space for tens of thousands of years, and then in the Dark Ages of the Fifth Era, they also supported some native human tribes and provided a lot of technical assistance."
"In the Sixth Era, after the establishment of the Federation, many mermaid tribes did not join the Federation, but continued to wander the starry sea, and some went to more distant places."
After saying this, Shui Yanqing turned her eyes to Luo Fenghua.
"I wonder what you think of them, Luo Fenghua."
"Me?" Luo Fenghua pressed his middle finger slightly between his eyebrows, seeming a little distressed.
"I don't understand, and it's hard to comment. This is their choice, and I respect it. I have no opinion."
"In fact, I recently received news from the 'Deep Sea Union'. They taught me some technology." Shui Yanqing mentioned the key point.
"It's about delaying aging, and how to hibernate in deep space. With the blessing of these two items, ordinary people can spend hundreds or thousands of years safely in the spacecraft to avoid aging and death during superluminal travel."
Why many people are not interested in the world outside the Milky Way, because even if they take the fastest starship to set sail, it will take many generations to reach a new galaxy.
"If this technology is promoted, it will be amazing." Luo Fenghua nodded.
"Yes, but promoting this technology is actually my selfish desire." Shui Yanqing shook her head slightly.
"I hope that those who have the same idea as me can get a rope to escape from the predicament and no longer be trapped here."
"Such an idea should not be wrong, but the Federation will definitely not allow it." She shook her head.
"So I can only discuss it with a small number of people first."
"So it's for this reason that you came to see me today." Luo Fenghua smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth.
"Yanqing must be very worried about being misunderstood and rejected by everyone." She thought for a while and answered.
"Actually, you don't have to worry about this. Compared with our other singers, your ideas and concepts are very peaceful."
For the federal officials, singers like Blanche and Heshia are a headache, and singers like Luo Fenghua and Otiberius who lead local factions to independence are also a bit thorny. As for Shui Yanqing, who hides in the corner to do research, she can be said to be a good baby type.
"I understand your idea." She thought about it again.
"I will find a chance to talk to Otiberius later, and she won't blame you for this."
"Originally, I was planning to bring you and Otiberius with me, and the three of us would lead the remaining forces in the Eastern Star Region to build the New World Fleet, but since we have your technology, I think we can also consider another way." She hesitated for a while.
In fact, it is really difficult to make a decision. As a singer who grew up in the Federation, Luo Fenghua is very attached to this land, country, and people. This is also an Eastern tradition.
But at present, it is really difficult for the Federation to remain stable. In the future, there will be at least one great war of change, and they, as the weak party, will be very passive.
If the team is smooth, it will be fine, but if it is not smooth, or if the future changes no longer allow the cultural inheritance of minority factions, she will not be able to resist at that time.
...
"So, instead of waiting for the result of others' judgment, it is better for us to find a way out ourselves."
Two days later, Luo Fenghua found Otiberius and said the above sentence.
"Oh, you mean, with the help of the technology provided by the 'Deep Sea Union', we will also leave the Federation and wander in the star sea?" Otiberius was a little surprised and surprised.
"That's right, I just don't know what you think."
"I can't make a decision for now, after all, this is too sudden." The other party shook his head.
"But you can rest assured that I will not announce your plans and ideas. If you have made a decision, you don't have to wait for me."
In this regard, Luo Fenghua wanted to persuade a few more words, but she held back.
"In this case, I'll take my leave first." She said goodbye and left.
In the following months, Luo Fenghua summoned many technical experts and engineers from the alliance faction to discuss future project plans. The plan was publicized as the Eastern Star Region needed its own independent fleet to protect the security and stability of the star region.
For this plan, other forces in the Federation were not surprised or surprised, but it was puzzling that the Eastern Star Region started large-scale shipbuilding so late.
"It should have built ships long ago. It was torn to pieces by an envoy from the central Federation before. If there was a fleet to protect it, how could the other party dare to be so unscrupulous." Someone commented.
"I wonder if they have designed a new eighth-generation battleship, otherwise the seventh-generation stuff is still too backward."
"It should be a new type of battleship. I heard that this time they invited technical personnel from the 'Emerald Dragon' to assist and help design the battleship drawings."
"That's reassuring."
"The 'Emerald Dragon' led by that prince should be the strongest faction in the Federation now."
"Prinkoko still can't beat Tilan. The two were strong rivals in high school, but Prinkoko always lost."
"According to some people's malicious speculation, this is all caused by Prinkoko's red hair, because in many youth romance literature and film and television works, red-haired people are losers."
"Ah, is there such a saying? Shouldn't it be blondes?"
"But there are also many successful blondes and blondes, so the sense of fate is not strong."
"Ahem, what are you talking about again? Don't argue with Prince Prinkoko so casually."
"Okay, today's club activities end here. Let's go home and see you tomorrow."
"Goodbye~"
"Bye." On campus, several students left the classroom in the afterglow of the setting sun.
...
At the same time, the Federal Central Council also learned about the plan of the Eastern Star Region Three Divas Alliance.
"Independent fleet?" Pulin leaned back in her chair and thought about it.
"I'm not looking down on them. With the twelve star regions they control now and the local industrial strength, it will take at least 20 years to build a fleet of the same scale as the 'Emerald Dragon'."
"In 20 years, Tilan and I would have already decided the winner, and there would be nothing for them to do." She shook her head nonchalantly.
"Although Otiberius is a senior, she was promoted to the Moon-level singer too late, and there is no hope for her to reach the Sun-level, so she is not to be feared."
"Although Shui Yanqing has decent talent, she has a flawed background and it is impossible for her to become the leader singer in the Federation, so there is no need to consider it."
"Luo Fenghua is extremely talented, but unfortunately she has always been obsessed with the circle of the Pan-Eastern Camp. This is the reason for her success and failure. Now it is the interstellar era, and she is still tinkering with narrow national narratives. It is right that her influence cannot go beyond the Eastern Star Region."
"Let's put the three of them aside. I don't have the heart to care about them now."
"Yes, Your Highness." The intelligence officer on the side put away the report information and prepared to leave.
However, he paused before leaving and turned to ask.
"Then what should be the priority of intelligence in the future?"
"Of course it should be our old rival Heshia Tilan. Apart from her, who else should we be cautious of? Has she been living in seclusion in the countryside recently? How can she be so irresponsible?"
"This... It is said that Lady Tilan has not appeared in the public eye for some time, and the southern star region has been particularly peaceful."
"Strange, doesn't she have any desire to win or show off?"
"If it were me, I would also publicize the victory and encourage everyone's confidence and pride."
"Forget it, she has that kind of personality. I knew it when I was in high school." After saying that, Pulin waved her hands and let her subordinate leave.
Thinking back to the scene when they first met, the timid Tilan, Pulin felt inexplicably funny again. She really underestimated her at that time.
It is probably a kind of luck to have such an opponent. They reflect each other, understand each other, and appreciate each other.
