Chapter 151 The road widened
A longer war horn seemed to resound throughout the galaxy.
With the "designation of natural disasters", this never-used right of the "Galaxy Community" was presented to all civilizations in the form of an issue for the first time.
They finally realized that the friendly "observer" was gone forever, and that the "benevolent adopter" who still looked like the Guardian of the Galaxy was just a disguise for some evil plan.
Designation of natural disasters is a special right belonging to the "Xinghai Community" stipulated in the "Community Pledge" after the establishment of the "Xinghai Community".
Any community member can propose a proposal to designate a certain civilization in the galaxy as a "natural disaster", and other civilizations will vote whether to pass it.
If the bill is passed, then this civilization designated as a "natural disaster" will be subject to a full-scale war by all members of the "Galaxy Community" on the grounds of "eliminating natural disasters."
This war will not end because of the demise of a participating civilization. The only thing that can stop it is the "Galaxy Community" voting whether to revoke the "natural disaster designation" or the "natural disaster" is resolved.
No one has cared about this unique right since it was stipulated. How unpopular must it be for a civilization to be designated as a "natural disaster" and approved?
Even the "killer swarm", an extinct political civilization in the galaxy, has not been awarded the honor of being designated as a "natural disaster". This is because for the galactic civilization, the "killer swarm" is not enough to be called a "natural disaster".
"Act of God".
Everyone thought that there would be a day when this right would be used, but the Fire Alliance gave them a reminder.
Isn't the Lost Empire a "civilization"? If they want to destroy everyone, then the Lost Empire, which has a strength that is difficult for ordinary civilizations to match, may be enough to be called a "natural disaster".
As for the "natural disasters" currently ravaging the galaxy, in addition to "Cordyceps", there is also a lost empire called "Annihilator of Civilization".
——Or it should no longer be called the Lost Empire at this time, but should be called the "Awakening Empire".
When the extinct "Watchers" had their first change due to the destruction of the Holy Land planet, a new concept was proposed in the galaxy:
When the Lost Empire is no longer "lost", can they still be called "Lost Empire"?
"Lost Empire" is a unique name given by galactic civilizations to these ancient civilizations that have fallen into stagnation to distinguish them from other civilizations.
But when they no longer stagnate and want to do something, the title "Lost Empire" is undoubtedly inappropriate.
Those lost empires that have actions must also be distinguished from those that have no actions.
There has always been debate in the galaxy about the new naming of this lost empire, such as "Revival Empire", "Awakening Empire", "Restart Empire", etc. They are all names given by good people based on their preferences.
Although there are different opinions, in the end, "Awakening Empire", with the blessing of the reputation of interstellar movies, became more popular and became a sufficiently popular name.
The "Civilization Annihilator", which is now designated as a "natural disaster" by the "Star Ocean Community", is the first awakened empire to appear in the true sense since the term "awakened empire" became popular.
They are expanding at an extraordinary speed and using special means to forcibly control all creatures along the way, including indigenous civilizations.
The past "stagnation" and "decline" were just passing clouds. What we need to face now is a resurgent civilization full of fanaticism.
No matter what their purpose is, at this time they are no longer "dead", but an awakened empire.
"...Obviously, the biggest 'unexpected enemy' has appeared. Now what we need to consider is how to find a way out under the attack of two 'natural disasters'?"
This question raised by the Star Alliance has become the biggest discussion topic in the "Star Sea Community".
This civilization, which had fought against the "Cordyceps Disease" and lost early because of too many star gates, did not choose to seek asylum. Instead, it destroyed those star gates that were about to fall, and then retreated to the node galaxy to continue the struggle.
Although it has lost many important stargate networks, the Star Alliance still has considerable diplomatic weight within the community, and the issues they raise are indeed top priorities.
"...The original 'Cordyceps Disease' has no suspense after the emergence of 'Presolin', but...perhaps it is precisely because of this that the 'Mercy Adopter' took off its mask and became the 'Annihilator of Civilization'
."
The words of a certain representative caused everyone present to fall into silence. Even if they didn't believe it originally, facts have proven that the dangerous "Cordyceps" is actually a "man-made natural disaster" caused by the "Annihilators of Civilization"
”.
"...The purpose is for us to 'voluntarily' join them and then... commit suicide? Although this thing sounds incredible, the news from the 'Sanctuary' ring world seems to be like this."
The only thing that still puzzles all civilizations now is the purpose of the "Civilization Annihilator".
This awakened empire believes that this galaxy is a "virtual world". Only when a sufficient number of creatures commit suicide at the same time can the universe that maintains the "virtual world" be terminated, and only then can they truly return to the real world.
There is no doubt that no one believes this theory. Everything must be based on evidence, let alone such nonsense as asking everyone to commit suicide together.
They still find it hard to believe what happened that would turn the "merciful adopters" into the "annihilators of civilization", a civilization with completely opposite ideological trends.
But the top priority is not to think about the reasons, but to think about countermeasures.
"...The Annihilators of Civilization" are very terrifying, and there is nothing we can do against them, but...perhaps, we can imitate the participation of the 'Presolin' in the war and involve other lost empires?"
"If the 'Civilization Annihilators' are really desperate to expand, then it will be a matter of time before they fight other lost empires. We have not reached a desperate situation."
Some people think of the "Lost Empire of the Beehive", which is making great efforts to eradicate "Cordyceps", and want to try to drag other lost empires into the water.
After all, it seems that it is a counterpoint for the Lost Empire to fight against the Awakened Empire, rather than for young civilizations like them to act as opponents.
"But in the face of the 'Civilization Annihilator' fleet that comes and goes without a trace, all we can do is save ourselves..."
"Then let's begin!" The leader of the Fire Alliance spoke again. He came to the "Star Sea Community" in person to participate in this meeting, and he also personally designated the "Annihilator of Civilization" as a natural disaster.
"...We can barely compete with the 'Cordyceps Disease', but we really have no ability to resist against the Awakening Empire."
"While we are meeting, new galaxies are falling every day. They are too fast. We can only move through hyperspace channels and star gates, but they can fall anywhere in the galaxy at will."
"This is the foundation of the Awakening Empire. Even if we are twisted into a rope, we are completely unable to fight against an enemy of this level."
The leader of the Fire Alliance looked around at everyone, and then continued:
"...We must admit that this is their era and we are not qualified yet."
"All we can do is run away, hide, and keep the fire as much as possible until the day civilization restarts."
"This may be our last meeting. It is impossible for this headquarters not to become the target of the 'Annihilator of Civilization'. After this, we can only fight on our own and it will be difficult to meet again."
As he said this, he took out a cane he had with him and threw it into the air. As the stick spun, it fell to the ground, but miraculously it remained upright. Although it shook for a while, it finally stood tenaciously.
Didn't fall down.
"...This is our ancient divination tradition. No one believes in it now, but judging from the divination results, this means that we will not fall down."
The leader of the Fire Alliance took a deep breath and said loudly to the representatives of other civilizations around him:
"...I know that many of you have always hated us. I also admit that our words are unpleasant and have caused you a lot of trouble."
"But what I always want to say is that being able to meet you is my greatest luck! I am very happy that this universe is not as lonely and cold-blooded as we imagined. Every time I encounter a new civilization in space, I will express my sincere
Congratulate them from the bottom of my heart for being on this stage."
"The crisis has not caused us to diverge, but has brought us closer together. Even though this crisis has become overwhelming, I still hope-"
His eyes swept over every civilization representative, as if he wanted to remember them and the civilization behind them in his heart.
"——I hope that you will still be present on the galaxy stage in the future."
After saying this, the leader of the Fire Alliance turned around resolutely and left the crowded conference room.
Those representatives seemed to be still shocked by the words of the Fire Alliance and did not speak for a long time.
The longer they stay here, the greater the probability that they will be attacked by the "Civilization Annihilator" jump fleet.
After one person stood up, the others hurriedly left, but each of them was operating something on the instrument in front of them before leaving.
Until the entire conference room was empty, and only the last civilized representative remained here.
He was about to leave, but before leaving, he came to the center of the conference room, a place used to decide whether the issue was passed.
Usually there will be an executor here to count the votes, and then go through a series of complicated decryption procedures in full view of the public, and then press the confirmation button to confirm that the issue is passed.
But this time, the "lock" of this place magically opened itself.
This happened only once in the history of the establishment of the "Galactic Community", and that was when the "Guardians" proposed the issue of "establishing a pan-galactic trade market" and it was unanimously approved.
Now here comes the second time.
Among the four seats required to "establish the Star Ocean Council", the last position has not yet been decided. This issue is always on the agenda, and a lot of time is spent on debate every time.
In this last position, the Fire Alliance has a 100% pass rate to unblock this issue, leaving only the final confirmation.
The last representative who was still here looked around the empty but crowded conference room and pressed the confirmation button.
Chapter completed!
