Chapter 161 The Khan Trial

When the representatives of the Fire Alliance returned from the "Star Ocean Community" headquarters, he was still dazed and had no idea how they had inexplicably obtained the last seat in the "Star Ocean Council".

At this time, the Fire Alliance didn't know about this, and they were still waiting for news from him.

After he came back, although some people asked him about his welfare, no one thought about the good news he brought back.

So when he said that they had become one of the four ordinary civilizations standing at the pinnacle of galactic diplomatic power, everyone's first reaction was "Are you okay?"

But he did bring evidence. The letter of appointment and dismissal of the "Galactic Council" has been issued. Now, as several civilizations with a major say in diplomacy, they need to participate more in interstellar society.

"...It's really unexpected. I knew we wouldn't be unlucky forever." The leader of the Fire Alliance seemed very happy about this.

With this power, they may be able to do more things that they could not do before.

Although the galactic civilization still speaks with its strength, the diplomatic reputation of the Fire Alliance makes up for their lack of strength.

Now they have begun to plan to put forward several proposals that were already hopeless at the next meeting to see the reaction of galactic civilization.

Although the Galaxy is still in post-war depression, planning for the future has never stopped.

"Then again, did you report the mysterious organization we discovered in the 'Sanctuary' ring world to the community? What did they say?"

The leader asked about this matter, and their goodwill was greatly aroused by the organization that held funerals for the dead so that their bodies would not be exposed in the wilderness.

But there seemed to be no rumors of this organization in the galaxy, so he wanted to see if he could get some clues through the channels of the "Galaxy Community".

And the representative who went to the meeting lived up to his expectations.

"This matter has attracted a certain amount of attention. Although most civilizations know nothing about it, fortunately, the curators still made some discoveries."

As he spoke, the representative took out a document with dense written records.

"...This is a civilized record of communication with the curator during the 'Cordyceps Disease' period..."

"Although it seems that this kind of selling of customer information should not happen... but after the 'Xinghai Community' came forward and paid some price, we still got this part of the information."

"The curator still has some professional ethics and only provided records of civilized information exchanged in the name of the 'Xinghai Community'. One of them is worth noting..."

The Curators are an advisory organization in the galaxy. They sell all kinds of knowledge and also sell their own scientists.

Their species does have extraordinary wisdom, the kind of wisdom that seems to come from genes and blood, making each of their scientists fundamentally superior to scientists from other civilizations.

If we use a quantitative data to express it, the scientists of the civilization that just came to heaven are level 1, and the scientist foundation of the curator is level 5.

Perhaps the former curators were also a civilization, but after a long period of time, they finally failed to become an existence like a lost empire, but instead became an interstellar organization with the main purpose of collecting, preserving, and selling knowledge.

This is a galactic mystery. Why did the seemingly omniscient curator not go that far? There are many rumors circulating all the time.

This organization does have a long history, and civilizations often trade all kinds of knowledge and information from them. During the "Cordyceps Disease", their threshold has been breached.

Although the curators didn't have much to do in the face of this "man-made crisis", they even had a branch of the space station destroyed by the "Cordyceps disease".

But there are still many people trying to trade with them for ways to deal with "Cordyceps", and the curators have also given some unique insights. They were the first ones to provide those missiles that have a terrifying effect on fungi.

"...Although most of these civilizations that trade with curators are normal, but..."

The worker who had returned from the "Xinghai Community" had a strange expression, and seemed a little unsure about this matter.

"There is a... civilization that has perished, and it is also among them..."

"Extinct civilizations?" The leader's expression was slightly startled, and then he began to count them in detail.

"Are they the ones who perished because of the 'Annihilators of Civilization'? But...will they go to the curator at that time?"

"It's not that group, but the one that was destroyed in the 'Circle Crisis' - the Dankamu ethnic group."

When these words were spoken, the air seemed to freeze.

After the representative returned, he reported to the leader alone, so there were only two of them here, but even so, the atmosphere here changed in an instant.

"...Although this matter is incredible, there may still be survivors of the Denkamu tribe still alive in the world. It is not ruled out that someone has borrowed this name. But there will be something that needs to use a dead civilization.

His name?"

"...It's indeed strange. It seems that this matter needs more attention...then, surely these are not the only things that need attention?"

The leader knew that there could not be only such a piece of news, there must be other things worthy of attention.

As expected, the representative then started talking about the "Dankamu tribe" and the curator.

"This civilization, or organization, called 'Dankarm', asks a lot of questions, which are also very complicated. Even things that even children know about 'how many lost empires are there in the galaxy' are among the questions."

"Judging from the manifestations of various problems, they are not at all like the Dunkamu of the past, but more like a civilization that is re-recognizing the galaxy."

"Although I have speculated whether Dunkam's fire has returned to the country, it has not been long enough since the "Ring Crisis" to erase history."

"According to some of the curator's remarks, the civilization that borrowed the name 'Dankam' seems to be in a situation of internal division, and several leaders are using a 'trial' method to determine the final winner.

…”

With the explanation, the leader of the Fire Alliance understood that there was an unknown civilization that was in the midst of an internal power struggle, forming multiple factions.

The scene they saw in the "Sanctuary" ring world seemed to be a "trial" mission condition organized by a certain faction, and it was not necessarily as noble as they thought.

"... But regardless of their intentions, at least their behavior in this matter is worthy of praise."

The leader of the Fire Alliance thought this way and held a meeting.

They are now members of the "Council of the Star Sea" and need to discuss how to use this right.

As for this mysteriously divided civilization, there's not much we can do except look for more clues.

So while they were discussing, an unknown galaxy in the Milky Way, that dividing civilization, also started a similar meeting.

But the difference is that their meeting will be more cruel, and the losers will disappear forever in the long river of history.

The empty hall, full of wild and primitive style, was crowded with people as spaceships appeared one after another.

This desolate planet has not experienced any environmental modification. Only this hall has simple ecological devices that can sustain life and hold meetings here.

A chilling atmosphere surrounded the hall, and reached its peak with the arrival of several people who looked like they were in high positions.

These are all "Khans" who have gone through "trials". After each "trial", the number of "Khans" has shrunk from the initial twenty or so to the current number.

This is a cruel knockout competition, and those who can persevere to this point are commendable even among the leaders of galactic civilization.

And they will decide the participants of the last "trial" under the spotlight. Only those who complete the last "trial" can be called the "Great Khan".

These "Khans" stood in the center of the hall, each with sharp eyes and a strong body like an eagle.

But time has left its mark on their bodies, and even genetic technology cannot cover up this trace. Just by instinct, you can tell that these people have completed at least 70% of their life journey.

But among these people, only one looked very young and was out of tune with the others.

"...Very good. Although I think you already know the result, there is still no timidity. This makes me very happy. This is the demeanor a khan should have."

The old voice sounded, announcing that the trial had entered a new stage.

"We all know that the people are the foundation of civilization, so the content of the trials has always required you to use all means to expand the strength of your subordinates."

"Now, there will only be two khans competing for the position of the final great khan."

"They are the 'Eagle Eye' who was known to us a long time ago; and the one who won the position of Khan with the speed of flying..."

After the names were read out, two khans raised their heads.

If Li Wenyuan were here, he would definitely be surprised, because these two Khans are actually "acquaintances" to some extent!

One of them came from a raider camp he once casually destroyed. The young man who was frightened by his terrifying fleet at that time has now become a "Khan" and is marching towards the final supreme position.

He is Hawkeye, and now he has become the most powerful competitor for the "Great Khan's position". His former dream is not far away from him.

Even though so much time has passed, he is still very young compared to other "Khans" and is the only "Young Khan" in the game.

And the other one is...

As the name was read out, he also raised his head, but his attention was not on this matter, it was more like he was in a daze.

People who are familiar with him will know that he is thinking about how to write a diary in this state.

"...My name is Lone Wolf, and today is the 720th day of my 526th interstellar adventure."

"My expeditions are getting longer and longer, and this one even lasted more than a year, which I couldn't accept at all before."

"But who would have thought that I would go from being a temporary mercenary doing recreational work to sitting in this position?"
