"You didn't hear me wrong. I said that just now."
Chen Jin briefly repeated, "I intend to recruit you, establish a close cooperative relationship, and expand common interests."
Gulp ~
There was the sound of someone swallowing saliva.
Mu Yunhua's body was still a little stiff. She did not know whether she was surprised or happy, or both. She forced herself to calm down and asked, "Why? Why are you considering me? "
After more than 50 years of recovery, the human forces on planet Walf were still very weak. The total population was still more than a billion, and resources were limited. Moreover, they were under great threat from the Selain civilization.
How could such a weak force suddenly catch Jin's eye?
Just like before, it was just a joke made by Jin to tease her.
But she did not know why, but from Jin's calm tone, she felt that he was serious. Then, a question filled her chest: Why her?
"I don't know why, I suddenly want to speed up the pace," Chen Jin said faintly.
"All these years, I have been supporting all of you and increasing your strength. However, even if I give you a lot of core technology for free, the speed of digestion is still very slow. The number of scientists trained out of a population of more than a billion is still not enough to support a powerful civilization." Chen Jin said faintly.
"The Selains are still racking their brains to deal with you. The resources contained in thousands of galaxies and the population of hundreds of billions of people. In the face of such a force, it will still be difficult for you to cope even if you are given another 300 years. Instead, you may be overwhelmed by the other party's resources.
"It's impossible for me to spend so much time guiding and helping you step by step."
"After thinking about it, it is better to directly give you a hack. The results will be seen quickly, and the results will be seen soon.
"And I have also said that I am not an interstellar philanthropist. There is a purpose in contacting you, and that is to use you to realize the expansion of interests. I believe you are also clear about this."
Mu Yunhua nodded.
There was no love without reason in this world. She would rather believe that the other party had a purpose, whether it was a good or bad one.
But she still had doubts in her heart. "Even if you intend to recruit us, and we are very willing to cooperate with you, but … why us and not other civilizations?"
Why did he choose such a weak force?
With the strength of the advanced civilization behind Jin, he could find any partner.
"Uh …"
Chen Jin was silent for a moment. This question was really not easy to answer.
After thinking for a while, he still said, "If I say … it's for your sake, because you're very special, because I like you very much, so I'm giving you this opportunity, would you believe me?"
Ah!
Mu Yunhua opened her mouth. Her heart was beating faster, and her cheeks were flushed red.
I like it.
Was Jin teasing or confessing? Moreover, he had said similar words more than a hundred times in the past, so he had gradually become immune to it. Occasionally, he would even get angry when Jin said, "That's right, I like old grannies who are over a hundred years old like you." Once, he even ignored him for several days.
But this time, an illusion sounded in her head: Jin should be serious. He probably wasn't teasing her.
A sweet feeling welled up in his heart.
"Alright, I won't ask any more questions. However, are you really willing to lend us an A-class warship like the Silver Gun Lord? You can't just lend out such a powerful weapon so casually, right? "
Science and technology were the foundation of a civilization. Interstellar warships that gathered the most cutting-edge advanced technology generally had to be kept strictly confidential to prevent leakage. They had to avoid falling into the hands of other civilizations and becoming a reference for them to upgrade and advance.
However, Jin was unexpectedly willing to lend out even his most precious technological achievements.
If it were her, it would be impossible for her to do such a thing.
She kind of wanted to pry open Jin's head and see what he was thinking.
"Don't worry, it's just a loan, not a gift," Chen Jin said frankly.
"My vision and investment philosophy are far different from others. I like to do things that focus on the future.
"Moreover, since it's a loan, I ask you to pay the corresponding 'reward.' Otherwise, I will take back those Silver Gun Lord ships.
"One hundred years. The initial lease period is one hundred years. I'll lend you one hundred Silver Gun Lord warships, and also give you a batch of powerful killing weapons such as gravity bombs.
"Then you'll take these A-class warships to destroy your opponents and earn points.
"The so-called points are easy to understand. The advanced technological information of the hostile civilization can be converted into points; the special mineral resources of the hostile civilization can also be converted into points.
"After you have points, you can buy gravity bombs in the mall, renew the lease of the A-class warships, or rent or buy new A-class warships.
"If you have enough points, you may even be able to exchange for S-class warships, interstellar fortresses, and advanced technological information that are more advanced than A-class warships.
"The basic gameplay is similar to what I taught you before. You should be able to get used to it quickly.
"So … points are everything. As long as you have enough points, you can get everything from me, even if you empty out my family fortune, as long as you can make countless contributions."
Mu Yunhua nodded and automatically blocked out some of the words in his words. She roughly understood Jin's purpose.
Technology and resources.
These two things were needed by all civilizations, and no one was an exception.
As for the game of point redemption, after so many years, Mu Yunhua had repeatedly put aside her sense of shame and integrity. The points that she had earned had indeed been used to redeem many brilliant technologies from the list of technology trees … She had long been familiar with that set of gameplay.
Now that the difficulty had been upgraded, the scene had become bigger, and it was time to do something meaningful, she was looking forward to it even more.
"Well, I am willing to cooperate with you, Jin!"
Mu Yunhua no longer hesitated. "In the future, I will redouble my efforts. Not only will I make the Selains pay the price, but I will also seize enough 'spoils of war' from the enemy!"
Revenge! Revenge!
The blood debt of billions of humans, the destruction of their home planet, the hardships they had endured since their escape … These things had not been forgotten.
She was only afraid that the long passage of time would wear away the memories and fighting spirit of the past, and she would slowly become timid and mediocre. Eventually, she would no longer care so much.
So … it had to be fast, it had to be early!
With the help of this powerful force given by Jin, she had to quickly turn these painful memories into motivation while they had not been forgotten, and make the Selains pay the price they deserved!
…
Haierfa.
In a large space dock about ten million kilometers away from the planet.
The 100th Silver Gun Lord interstellar warship had just been completed. After refueling and supplies, it slowly drove out of the dock and gradually merged into a formation of starships not far away.
Together with the newly completed warship, they slowly merged into a corner at the edge of the formation.
A total of 99 A-class warships were arranged in a rectangular matrix of 11 by 9. They looked neat and composed.
"Let's go!"
Chen Jin waved his hand.
These warships accelerated one after another, turned on the space curvature engine, and headed straight for the Walf Galaxy 14 light-years away.
"Master, in this way, all the A-class warships that we've been saving up for seven or eight years will all be given to someone else."
Alice pouted and looked displeased. "Master, aren't you being a little too generous? That's all our power, and you're giving it away just like that?"
"It's not a gift, it's a loan."
Chen Jin explained again helplessly, "The highest authority is still in our hands, there is no possibility of betrayal. Besides, it's a waste to leave such powerful warships with us. It's better to enter the battlefield and bring out their true value.
"Moreover, we've already mastered the process of mass-producing A-class warships. In five years at most, we will have another hundred A-class warships in our hands, and even the more powerful S-class warship prototypes are in experimental production.
"But I still think that you're too partial to that woman, master. You've given her too much charity."
Alice said with a jealous expression.
Next to her, Nuwa glared at her and said with a straight face, "This is a cooperation that benefits both sides. How is it 'charity'? Also, how can you say that about master? "
"Actually, I'm not that generous."
Chen Jin smiled helplessly. "If it weren't for the earth-shaking changes that have taken place on Earth, I would at most lend some B-class warships that are a generation behind to Mu Yunhua.
"This time, we have no choice but to speed up our efficiency."
In just a few years, the Chen family would fall from a top family to a second or third-rate family.
Speaking of which, what had happened on Earth recently?
Why did Chen Jin suddenly feel so pressured? Why did he decide to integrate the forces of the universe on Haierfa? He did not even hesitate to play his current trump card.
The reason was simple.
The Protoss on Earth had risen.
They rose to the sky in one go.
In an instant, they suppressed the glory of humanity.
There were a few symbolic events:
First, in the fourth "War of the Humans and Protoss," 18 top masters of the Protoss killed all the elites of the human race without suffering the slightest injury in the face of the "ultimate weapon" of humanity.
They immediately reversed the declining trend of three consecutive defeats. It could be said that they had wiped out their previous humiliation.
Moreover, judging from the performance of those powerful Protoss practitioners, it seemed that they did not do their best. In the next "War of the Humans and Protoss," the humans were in a bit of a pinch.
Second, the recovery of magical powers accelerated. The spatial door near Jupiter's orbit suddenly expanded by ten thousand times. Extremely rich celestial particles escaped into the solar system at a faster efficiency, rapidly increasing the concentration of the so-called "spiritual energy."
In the fourth "War of the Humans and Protoss," the Protoss achieved a complete victory. This was partly due to the considerable increase in the concentration of spiritual energy.
As a result, the strength of the vast number of practitioners of the Protoss had doubled.
Thirdly, due to the accelerated recovery of magical powers, a large number of practitioners from the Shenguang Order had come to Earth. They had set up formations and opened up a different dimension. They had created a magical dimension that was larger than a city but did not occupy any real space. This had greatly increased the living space of the Protoss immigrants.
Even on the moon, there was a mighty Protoss who opened up a different space called the "Moon Palace," which could accommodate millions of immigrants.
With the help of this magical and powerful ability, the Protoss, whose living space had greatly increased, naturally accelerated the speed of immigration.
Therefore, in just one year, they completed the task of migrating five billion Protoss.
As a result, the current population of the Protoss living in the solar system had exceeded the 10 billion mark. In the future, it was likely to increase to more than 20 billion.
The current total human population of the Earth Federation was only 25 billion. There were also a wide variety of nationalities, skin colors, races, and cultures …
Fourth, the technological strength of the Protoss was rapidly approaching that of humans.
The technology here referred to the celestial technology developed based on the celestial particles. It was a different path from traditional material technology.
But due to various magical characteristics, the potential and prospects of celestial technology far exceeded that of traditional material technology. It could easily be replaced.
What was even more frightening was that after experiencing three failures in the "War of the Humans and Protoss," the current Protoss had become modest.
Not only did they accept a variety of technological products invented by humans, but they were also very "studious."
Coupled with their clever minds, it only took them a short period of 20 years to basically absorb and digest the accumulated knowledge created by humans over the past 5,000 years.
After mastering the new celestial technology, it was necessary for many human scientists to follow suit and study it.
The status of traditional technology plummeted.
The materialist scientific view, which was originally regarded as the truth, died a tragic death in the face of celestial technology.
The era of the Protoss leading the trend was coming with great strides.
In the context of the "Revival of Magical Powers," looking at the increasingly powerful Protoss, among humans, there were countless leading parties, sucking up to them, and compromising parties.
The originally equal status of the human race and the Protoss was in jeopardy.
In terms of interests, the Protoss, who were gradually becoming stronger, would probably adopt various means to occupy more and more interests.
At least on the very "crowded" Earth, the number of human settlements was likely to continue to decrease … Unless, in the quadrennial "War of the Humans and Protoss," humans could reclaim their interests and dignity.
So … Chen Jin really could not sit still.
If those foreign Protoss became the masters, how could he play in the future? How could he keep his secrets?
Especially his home, Earth. He must protect it! He would not allow the worst situation to happen.
Become stronger.
Then he could only become stronger.
And it was divided into two directions.
On Haierfa, naturally, he would speed up the progress of expansion. The more territory and resources he occupied, the better. If he could conquer the entire universe … then Chen Jin would be very confident.
On Earth, Chen Jin also had a plan to maintain the interests of the Chen family and not be too eroded.
"Ring ring ring ~"
A phone call came in.
He clicked to accept the call. A crisp voice said, "Dad, the family meeting is ready. The main family members have basically arrived. You are the only one who has not arrived … Everyone is waiting for you to give us instructions."
"Oh, got it."
Chen Jin said faintly. As the founder of the Chen family's industry, in the context of the rise of the Protoss, the panic of the people, and the unprecedented change in the past 10,000 years, perhaps only an old monster like him could better unite the hearts of the family and come up with the right response.
