"Congratulations." Reid raised his hand and looked at Arlen meaningfully.
He had actually received a response.
The others did not know, but they knew what kind of requirements the Association had for the seed of humanity.
It seemed that this person was not what he appeared to be.
"This is … quite a pleasant surprise." Arlen took a few deep breaths as if to suppress his excitement. He sighed and said, "The seed of humanity."
Although Quintina and Ju Boyuan did not know what the short-lived symbol represented, they knew what it meant.
However, when they heard Ya Erlin's words, they, who were very familiar with him, seemed to realize something.
"Does that symbol represent the tinder of our human civilization?" Quintina suddenly said, "If it's the seed of humanity, we also have a similar plan. Ever since the nuclear energy revolution in the last century and the arrival of the space age, we've sent out dozens of 'seed' spaceships."
This was originally a top secret of the highest level.
However, Quintina had said it so simply.
However, whether it was Ju Boyuan or Arlen, their expressions did not change.
Reid shook his head.
His face was full of regret as he said, "If it was those spaceships, they would have all been destroyed by now. Their spaceships were filled with insect eggs, and they were mother insects. Once they were a certain light-year away, they would hatch and completely destroy the spaceship."
It was not impossible that the people on the spaceship had gotten rid of the insects.
But it was a pity.
Shen Yi and the others had appeared in this world, which meant that this victory had not happened.
They would only descend in a world where humanity was completely destroyed.
Hearing Reid's words, Quintina and the others fell silent again.
After a while, Quintina exhaled slowly. "To think that they would go this far, even wiping out the tinder of civilization … If they can leave behind the tinder of civilization for us humans, we will not hesitate to pay any price."
These words were not only to express her attitude to Reid and the others, but also to tell them the truth.
Not to mention defeating the enemy.
Just to preserve the tinder of civilization so that the human civilization would not go extinct, they had to give everything they had.
However, Reid only said calmly, "I think you still don't understand the meaning of this symbol. The continuation of human civilization is our promise. What you need to think about is how to win and how to let more people survive in this catastrophe!"
These words couldn't be any more straightforward.
Even Quintina and the other two were stunned for a moment.
They had actually made a lot of guesses about the origins of this group of people and that "God."
Among them, they felt that the most likely possibility was another force from the vast starry sky.
Even the people in front of him were not real humans.
Having already witnessed the cruelty of this vast starry sky, they really could not imagine that there would be such a powerful existence that would "kindly" help them. But even if it had other motives, as long as it could bring them real hope, they had to seize it.
But now.
This sentence seemed to be saying … they were here to help them?
"… Then, what price do we have to pay?" Quintina spoke again.
She didn't intend to do any more probing.
This sentence was equivalent to asking, 'What do you want from me?'
Reid laughed.
He had been laughing, but the smile at this moment obviously had a different meaning.
"We are humans," he said.
The expressions of Quintina and the others changed again.
Human?
Quintina seemed to want to say something else, but Reid interrupted her.
"After chatting for so long, we have understood each other, so there is no need to say anything unnecessary. The best proof of words is action. So, how much do you know about the civilization that is trying to destroy you?"
This topic was the core of this meeting.
So Quintina suppressed what she wanted to say, shook her head, and said, "Except for those massive insects and deadly toxins, we can only rely on guesses."
"Everything we know is in here." Reid took out a storage device.
Suddenly, General Ju Boyuan's eyes lit up.
In this secret meeting room, there was a three-digit projector.
So, the image quickly appeared on it.
It was a huge insect.
It was the insect that Shen Yi saw as a spaceship.
"This is the enemy who is watching you at this moment. There is only one spaceship and 878 Octopus people. They are hiding in the place where Kendy went. The specific location is in an asteroid belt in the solar system. Do you see this?" Reid pointed to the core that was emitting a bright light. "This is their energy core. If the energy contained in it is converted into kinetic energy and exploded, it is enough to shatter the entire Earth."
Quintina and the others could not take their eyes off it!
They stared at the image.
Humans finally knew the true appearance of the enemy who had brought them a century of nightmares!
It was a complete alien creature.
Even in human aesthetics, they were "monsters". They did not have any empathy and only brought fear and destruction.
"Have you been monitoring them all this time?" Quintina seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked.
To be able to see the internal structure so clearly, it was as if someone was holding a high-definition camera and swaggering around to take pictures.
Just from this point alone.
The gap between these Octopus people and the forces represented by the four people in front of them was not much smaller than the gap between Earth and these Octopus people.
It was like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
"Although Mister is not omnipotent, don't underestimate Mister's power." Reid shook his head. "In fact, if Mister were to take action, it would be easy to get rid of these Octopus people. However, they are only a vanguard force. The difficulty is not getting rid of them, but how to get rid of them and paralyze the civilization behind them to buy precious time for your development. You are really too weak."
It was not that Shen Yi was overly cautious.
It was just that the future would be like this.
He had the idea to take action directly, but this idea brought about a change in fate. It was that Earth would be directly destroyed by violence.
Space teleportation and planet-destroying weapons were simply unstoppable.
He now felt like he was protecting a group of chickens in front of a pack of hungry wolves. Even if he had two guns in his hands, how many could he protect?
