Xiao Ran gave the row of people to his right a look, and then his eyes returned to Victor's body. With a light laugh, he said, "Cooperating to deal with Lev Mirov isn't out of the question, but in this type of cooperation, what are you willing to offer, what do you want in return? What do we have to pay, and what do we get in the end?"
"Regarding this, we can discuss it slowly after the cooperation between Earth and Gulatus is complete." Viktor's expression didn't change. He said respectfully, "However, Lev Mirov is definitely the most threatening enemy in the universe right now. Regardless of whether it's Gulatus or Earth, they both need to put in a lot of effort to unite and fight against Lev Mirov. Gulatus is willing to provide more support, but we also hope to reach a deeper cooperation with Earth through this matter."
The corners of Xiao Ran's lips curled up. There was a hint of disdain in his voice. "In other words, you want Earth's technology?"
Viktor nodded. "Lord Xiao Ran, Gulatus yearns for a lot of Earth's technology. Many of Gulatus' technology also doesn't exist on Earth. If we can reach a certain level of technology exchange, I believe both sides will benefit greatly."
"Hehe." Xiao Ran's laughter suddenly rang out in the meeting hall. "Interesting. To be able to generously raise such a condition, a fair exchange, I can barely see your sincerity. However, for this matter, I can only say sorry for the time being."
"Lev Mirov, Earth doesn't need any help. Just its current strength is enough to completely destroy Lev Mirov. As for Gulatus' technology, I don't think there's anything that can catch my eye. Your weapon technology and warship technology aren't worth mentioning in my eyes, and we also don't care about the other aspects of technology. I don't think you can take out anything good to exchange for Earth's things with me."
Viktor wasn't shocked when he heard Xiao Ran's words. He had long prepared himself for rejection and a long 'war'. After Xiao Ran finished speaking, Viktor remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "As an independent and powerful civilization, Earth naturally has its own unique technological crystallization. However, Gulatus is also a powerful civilization with a history even further behind than Earth, so it also has its own unique technological crystallization. I believe that the things Gulatus has now will definitely have things that Earth and Lord Xiao Ran need."
"For example, the space warp device. It can create an eternal and continuous passage between two different points in the universe, and it can freely travel between the two sides without the use of any space warp device. I think this technology doesn't currently exist on Earth."
Xiao Ran's eyes narrowed slightly. Xiao Ran didn't know much about Gulatus, but the technology Viktor mentioned did indeed surprise Xiao Ran a little. He didn't expect Gulatus to have grasped space warp technology, or rather, warp gate technology. Warp gates were very useful. Xiao Ran had personally experienced this in Mecha Battle V's world. They could warp space to create an eternal passage between two extremely distant points. Of course, this required sufficient energy supply.
Going back and forth between two places through such a channel would take far less time than a space jump. Although it wasn't as convenient as a space jump, the time needed to travel to and from a fixed place would be greatly reduced. Even ordinary battleships that didn't have the space jump ability could use it.
Xiao Ran encountered this technology in Mecha Battle V, but it was the crystallization of technology. Burning Legion hadn't grasped this technology, so when Viktor mentioned this technology, Xiao Ran was a little tempted. Now that he had the Martian ruins and grasped the Wave Boson, he should be able to grasp the derivative technology of the Wave Boson, which was the Giant Tulip Teleportation technology. This way, Gulatus' technology wouldn't be that important, and this technology didn't mean much to Burning Legion.
However, what Viktor said was only one example. A civilization that could develop into a universe empire, even if it was a civilization that wasn't that powerful and didn't have a large territory, would definitely have the technology and resources unique to Gulatus. Plus, there were mission requirements, so Xiao Ran was still very concerned about Gulatus.
Xiao Ran tilted the armrest of his throne. He felt that this was a good opportunity. He looked at Viktor and said, "It's not impossible to exchange technology. Cooperation against Lev Mirov is also possible."
"I can share some technology with Gulatus. I believe that Gulatus will definitely share the technology with the corresponding value. I also believe that Gulatus will do its best to fight against Lev Mirov. It's the same for Earth. However, the problem is whether you will recognize the technology that we think is valuable, and whether you will be willing to share the technology that we think is not valuable. Which side will be the main force to send troops to deal with Lev Mirov? Earth or Gulatus.
Have you thought about this? "Viktor's face showed a hint of joy because of Xiao Ran's words. However, just as he was about to say something, Xiao Ran interrupted him and said," Once we start cooperating, Earth and Gulatus will definitely expose more problems. There may be things that we can't think of right now, but when the time comes, some unnecessary problems will cause our cooperation to break down. I think you and the people you represent don't want to see this scene so early, right? "
"I have a suggestion. Make a list of all the technologies, both ours and yours, and put them on the table, including the matters of sending troops. We will list all the technologies on the table. If you feel that it's not enough, you can ask for more from us, and vice versa."
"Then, Earth and Gulatus will have a competition. Use your strongest warrior and our strongest warrior to compete. It will be a small-scale war. The winner will get all the technology on the list of the losers, and at the same time, get all the commanding rights of the allied forces. Or maybe we can make the bet a little bigger. The loser will merge with the other side. Earth will become a member of the Gulatus Empire if they lose, and the Gulatus Empire will become a member of Earth if they lose.
What do you think? "" Of course, if you choose to refuse, then don't mention anything. Gulatus will attack Earth and slaughter Mars after we eliminate Lev Mirov, and then we will ask Gulatus for an explanation. "
As he spoke, Xiao Ran stood up from his throne and looked down at Viktor from his vantage point, giving him even more pressure.
Viktor looked at Xiao Ran who stood up and heard the determined tone in Xiao Ran's voice. He opened his mouth and sighed, "I have to report this matter to my king before I can give an answer."
"Alright, but as the person in charge of this diplomatic mission, I believe you should know how to persuade your king." Xiao Ran waved his hand and said, "Orvan, I'll leave the Gulatus diplomatic mission to you. Since they are guests, we don't need to be stingy as hosts. Just treat it as if they came to Earth for a vacation, and we have to treat them well."
