Leaving halfway through the meeting showed that Psyker's actions were not very respectful to the members present. However, whether it was the seven Star Cluster directors or the other members, they did not mind. Psyker was only using his actions to express his dissatisfaction when the Star Pupil Holy Race was publicly targeted. He would still be there in the next meeting.
Since the main character had left, the proposal was temporarily shelved. Bennett sat down under the signal of the Purple Crystal director.
The meeting continued, and the next proposal was brought up. The atmosphere in the meeting room became casual again.
The subsequent proposals had nothing to do with him, so Han Xiao threw the remote projection into the backstage and went to browse the forums.
After half a day, the first day of the meeting finally ended. Every time the Civilization Conference was held, it would usually take a few days to discuss the backlog of proposals. Han Xiao only planned to participate on the first day. He did not need to attend the next few days. Bennett was enough.
Deactivating the remote projection, Han Xiao closed the forums and pondered.
"The Star Pupil Protoss was condemned by Blue Star. What happens next has nothing to do with Blue Star."
Nothing actually happened, so they could not really do anything to Sisko. Han Xiao did not expect the Star Pupil Protoss to compensate or donate money. Blue Star's influence was too small. Even if they condemned the other party, Sisko would not feel anything.
However, after this matter was brought up, Sisko did not face difficulties from Blue Star but from the Talos civilization.
The Talos Civilization had secretly funded the Avitan Souls so that they could cause trouble for the Star Pupil Holy Race. Although they did not order the Avitan Souls to attack Planet Aquamarine, this unexpected situation was in line with their interests, and they could use this opportunity to cause trouble.
Han Xiao asked Bennett to condemn the other party to provide an excuse for the Talos civilization. The Talos civilization understood this tacit understanding. They had wanted to deal with the Star Pupil Protoss for a long time, and they could appease Han Xiao by standing up for Blue Star.
Therefore, Blue Star did not need to worry about what happened after that. He only needed to watch the Talos civilization operate from the sidelines.
Han Xiao contacted Ames and asked her about Floating Dragon.
The two of them chatted on the phone for half an hour before hanging up.
Walking in front of the 3D star map, Han Xiao looked up at the image of the Garu Star Cluster. There was only a very small green area that had been explored so far. It was shaped like two toothpicks stuck in a green ball. It was the two long-distance passages that were under construction and the border Star System that was being explored.
"There are still three months before Hardaway's task force can build a long-distance stargate …" Han Xiao thought to himself as he rubbed his chin.
According to his exploration plan, the first stage would be for the Special Task Force to arrive at the eastern part of the Garu Star Cluster's 2D star map.
With his understanding of the Garu Star Cluster, there should not be any disturbances like the Great Cosmos Corps in the next three months. It should be a peaceful exploration period, and they should be able to explore eighty percent of the border Star Systems.
…
Time was like quicksand in one's hand. It slipped through the gaps between one's fingers.
Three months later …
On the mother planet of the Red Empire, in the Ruler's office …
Urranrell sat with her back as straight as a javelin. She held a report in her hand and was reprimanding a trembling high-ranking official in front of her. Her tone was solemn.
"The Radiant Federation is acting sneakily and infiltrating our territory. How did you deal with it? Are you just going to watch and not do anything? I only told you to be conservative, not to retreat! Come up with a plan right now! "
"Let me think, let me think …" This official wiped his sweat and said with difficulty.
Uranril's eyes were serious. The exploration of the Flickering World had already been going on for a few months, and the Radiant Federation had already begun to act. At the same time, they were pressuring the dynasty from all aspects, preparing to eat away at the dynasty's benefits while the dynasty was focused on exploring the new Star Field.
This was only the beginning. In the future, when the dynasty invested more resources and manpower into the exploration, the Radiant Federation would definitely become even more aggressive and make the dynasty's situation even more difficult.
While all of this was within Uranril's expectations, it was still unavoidable. The Radiant Federation was a Universal Civilization on the same level, and the dynasty would not be able to get the best of both worlds. If they wanted to gain something, they would have to pay a certain price. Uranril was already mentally prepared for this.
Beep beep!
This time, the internal line suddenly rang.
"Your Excellency, the Chief Commander of the exploration army, Tarrokov, is on the line."
Uranril's eyes moved slightly, and she waved her hand to get the official to leave. This official immediately felt as though he had been granted amnesty and hurriedly left the Ruler's office, leaving only Uranril in the room.
"Connect." Uranril nodded.
The next moment, Tarrokov's remote figure appeared in the room and saluted Uranril.
"Tarrokov, how is the exploration of the Flickering World going?"
The exploration of the Flickering World was the focus of the Red Empire's current strategy. Uranril was extremely concerned about the exploration and would listen to a report every once in a while.
"The information has already been sent to you. Let me explain the current situation to you …"
Tarrokov opened his mouth and explained.
While listening to the report, Uranril looked at the information and nodded.
"… All in all, in the three Star Clusters of Renault, Crown, and Garu, the dynasty's exploration army and Klent's exploration team are doing well. On the other hand, the Black Star Corps' exploration team that chose the Garu Star Cluster has made great progress in the past four months. They have discovered a large number of rich resource planets and even took over the territory of a local organization, saving us a lot of effort. Furthermore, the Black Star Corps does not care about their own losses and is currently building long-distance stargates to make it more convenient for the exploration team," Tarrokov said.
"Not bad, a reliable ally." Uranril put down the information, and a look of satisfaction flashed through her eyes.
Because there was a comparison, she was very satisfied with Han Xiao's efficiency.
"The Black Star Corps is an ally worth nurturing. Increase the support for them."
Although Tarrokov seemed to have received some benefits and was always putting in good words for the Black Star Corps, as long as the work was done well, Uranril would not be bothered by the details.
"Other than that, there's something else that needs to be reported." Tarrokov's tone suddenly turned serious. "We have discovered traces of suspected stowaways."
The stowaways that he was talking about were organizations that had secretly passed through the desolate universe belt and headed to the Flickering World without the dynasty's permission.
Uranril narrowed her eyes. "Are you sure they are not natives?"
Tarrokov shook his head. "Although there aren't many clues, our troops stationed in the desolate universe belt of the Flickering World have discovered high warp speed hyperdrive folds left behind by an unknown fleet. Clearly, they have reached the technological standard of a Star Cluster Civilization. These stowaways will most likely arrive in the Flickering World in a while … No, there might have already been people who arrived in the Flickering World before them but were not discovered by us."
"As expected," Uranril said calmly, "the Radiant Federation, the Arcane Church, and those Supercluster Civilizations still made their move."
"I think that they will take a detour to avoid the three Star Clusters that we explored in the first phase," Tarrokov said. "They will explore the Star Clusters in the depths of the Star Field before us and secretly take over our Star Field to avoid meeting us."
"You're right." "Send out troops to search the desolate universe belt between the Shattered Star Ring and the Flickering World," Uranril said slowly. "Destroy the stargates that the enemy has secretly built."
These stowaways had sent out vanguards to build their own secret stargates in the Flickering World. This way, they would be able to quickly transport a large number of troops. Most of these stargates would be hidden in the vast desolate universe belt between the two Star Fields.
This was the reason why the Red Empire prohibited other organizations from privately using stargates to connect to the Flickering World. The most effective way to deal with the stowaways was to destroy the secret stargates and let the dynasty firmly control the stargates.
Only by ensuring the uniqueness of the stargate could they maximize the dynasty's benefits.
However, Tarrokov shook his head. "We need more manpower."
"I know." Uranril nodded. "I will send more dynasty troops to the Flickering World. It's time for the second batch of dynasty allies to move as well."
…
At the same time, a stowaway fleet of the Arcane Church arrived at the border of the Flickering World.
"We're finally here! Contact the team. Have they chosen a location in the desolate universe belt? "
"Reporting, captain. They're already in position. They're just waiting for us."
Only two stargates could form a fast passage. The stowaway fleet would usually split up and choose a location for the secret stargate in the desolate universe belt. This was the 'entrance'.
The fleet that came to the Flickering World was responsible for building the 'exit'.
"Very good. Don't be discovered by the Red Empire's space monitoring buoys. We'll go around the Dawn Star Cluster and build a stargate in the desolate universe belt around the Garu Star Cluster."
The Arcane Church also wanted to get their hands on the Flickering World, but this was a long-term project, and they were not in a hurry. In comparison, the Arcane Church was more interested in the Evolution Cube.
They had built a secret stargate near the Garu Star Cluster to make it easier to station troops.
With a stargate, it would be easier to send in Beyond Grade As. After all, Beyond Grade As would not be willing to spend a few months slowly passing through the desolate universe belt.
Black Star had already proven how difficult it was to deal with, and the Arcane Church had mobilized more than one or two Beyond Grade As this time.
Of course, the three Universal Civilizations were keeping an eye on each other's Beyond Grade As. Once there was any abnormal movement, they would be alerted.
If they wanted to make a Beyond Grade As move stealthily, they would need a reason to confuse others.

I've been staying up late recently, so I'm not feeling very well. I'll write less today to rest up and smooth out my thoughts.
PS: Lu Xun said it well. If people are killed, they will die. If they don't vote, their monthly votes will expire. It's the last day of the month. Just a small amount of monthly votes is enough.
