Chapter 112: The Eve of the Battle!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Captain, we have good news!

Our scout s.h.i.+p heading to Jupiter captured a destroyer from Earth!

From a gravitational wave detector, near Jupiter, a small s.h.i.+p is seen towing a broken s.h.i.+p ten times its size, heading toward Pluto.

A scout s.h.i.+p capturing a destroyer?!

Moro paused. The initial mission for the scout s.h.i.+p was just to check out the enemys capability, not expecting to capture one of their s.h.i.+ps.

Have we received any updates from Scout s.h.i.+p 8?

Yes, we have!

The captured destroyer uses a propulsion system that combines third-generation nuclear fusion and electromagnetic technologies. Its equipped with conventional weapons like electromagnetic guns, railguns

All the technology Their tech level doesnt exceed 1.99

Overjoyed, Moro exclaimed, That truly is great news!

Notify everyone. Have all the squadron leaders come for a meeting!

Moments later, numerous squadron leaders entered the mothers.h.i.+p from their respective battles.h.i.+ps.

Moro shared the intel from Scout s.h.i.+p 8.

Given the current situation, what are your thoughts about Earth? he asked.

There are two possibilities

Firstly, Earth could have already reached a late-stage Type 1 civilization 52 years ago, and launched Voyager 1 to disguise their actual technological prowess

Considering Voyager ls speed, it would take at least 15,000 years to leave the solar system, and over 30,000 years to possibly be discovered by other civilizations

Perhaps, they thought that within 30,000 years, they could raise their tech level to 2.5, or even beyond 3.0

Or, they might have been stuck at the 1.99 level for a long time

Sending out Voyager 1 could have been a ploy to lure other civilizations to help them break through their limitations

The civilization level of Earth described on Voyager 1 was only 0.61. In their minds, a civilization of level 3 or above might ignore such a primitive civilization, attracting only Type 0 and Type 1 civilizations

Based on this possibility, the so-called Universe Alliance of China is just a fabrication

Their descriptions of advanced civilization weapons like water droplets, light particles, two-way foils are all figments of their imagination

Therefore, the Pangu civilization on Earth should only have a tech level below 1.99, still struggling to break through the bottleneck

Moro nodded in agreement, That makes sense. Even our Glen civilization took tens of thousands of years to break through from 1.99 to 2.0. Its normal for them to be stuck at this level for a hundred thousand years

How could they compare to our Glen civilization!

A squadron leader joked, We, the Glens, are the most intelligent race in the universe!

Moro nodded, allowing the squadron leader to continue on the second possibility.

The second possibility is that Earth is indeed a Type 0 civilization

The Voyager 1 sent 52 years ago, with its technological information, reflects their actual situation

A civilization newly entering s.p.a.ce may act naively. Their actions are understandable

After launching Voyager 1, their Pangu civilization might have been discovered by the people of the Universe Alliance of China

Invited to join them

With this, they received a wealth of technology far more advanced than their own, such as third-generation nuclear fusion, and so on

However, the Universe Alliance of Chinas headquarters is too far from the solar system, and the resources here are average. Therefore, after showing off a bit, the alliance left

Consider this possibility: it might explain why, when we first traveled here, most of the s.h.i.+ps we encountered were moving at 2 Nagi speed

It could be because they learned the secret of neutrinos from the Hua Xia Universe Alliance

Someone interrupted, If the Hua Xia Universe Alliance knows the secret of neutrinos, why form an alliance?

Maybe they are confident. If the alliance is real, there must be a civilization within it thats technologically advanced

a.s.suming its the Great Qin civilization that possesses the two-way foil, then their technological level has reached at least 4.0

In their early years, they must have annihilated many civilizations, until now, they probably believe there are few left that can threaten them, and thats why they want to unify the universe

Moro squinted. If the two-way foil was real, unifying the universe was not a small possibility.

The two-way foil, a weapon capable of destroying the whole universe, could be considered the pinnacle of this universes weaponry

Any advanced civilization with the two-way foil possesses the ability to destroy the universe

At this point, all they need to do is identify all the civilizations in the universe. The weaker ones are forced to join the alliance, to cut off the chance of low-level civilizations learning about the two-way foil. Those who also possess the two-way foil become permanent members of the alliance

They minimize all risks

Correct, if the two-way foil is the endgame of all weaponry, then the civilization that possesses the two-way foil will certainly try to prevent inter-civilizational wars, stop new civilizations from grasping the two-way foil, and lower the chance of universal destruction

Moro nodded, then asked, Based on these two possibilities, what would be the consequences of our attack on the Pangu civilization?

With the first scenario, the destruction of Pangu civilization is a foregone conclusion, without any consequences

According to the second scenario, we havent received any warnings or threats from the Hua Xia Universe Alliance, we dont even know they exist

In this case, destroying a foolish, low-level civilization like Pangu, with a 0.61 level, the Hua Xia Universe Alliance probably wont pursue it. Instead, they might invite us to join the alliance

After all, we have reached a high-intelligence level of 2.75 through our own research

Some expressed nervousness, If the Great Qin civilization wants to limit two-way foil research, wouldnt our intelligence be a problem?

No, they will definitely focus on civilizations that are close to understanding the two-way foil

Great Qin civilization is at level 4 0, this is our a.s.sumption. Perhaps they are at 5.0 or even 6.0?

Even if theyre only 4 0, they would absolutely focus their attention on civilizations between levels 3.0 and 3.99, not us

Having listened to these a.n.a.lyses, Moro began to feel at ease, believing the Hua Xia Alliance would not act against them for the sake of a low-level civilization like Pangu.

So, as long as we act quickly, and destroy Pangu civilization in a short time, making it a fait accompli, that should suffice

Someone worriedly stated, What if the Hua Xia Universe Alliance asks our Glen civilization to join them?

Thats a question for our elders. Our mission here is to destroy the Pangu civilization. As long as we accomplish this, we can return to our mother planet

Once we return to our mother planet, well be heroes. Even if later the Glen civilization joins the Hua Xia Universe Alliance, our status wont be low

Everyone chimed in, a.n.a.lyzing every possible outcome.

Gradually, Moro made up his mind. Seeing the ambition in the eyes of his squadron leaders, he declared loudly:

Everyone, prepare for battle with all your might

The moment Miro returns, it will be your chance to make a name for yourselves!
