Chapter 103 The Council of Elders (2)

Rather than saying that the technology of the Nemesis Galaxy has been improving, it would be better to say that as scientists gain a deeper understanding of the ancient artifacts from more than two thousand years ago, the level of technology has recovered.

To put it simply, they have been resting on their laurels and trying to get back to the top.

"Two thousand years ago, facing the Zerg attack, we took countless embryos and led the fleet to escape here..."

Perhaps because they hadn't spoken for too long, one of the elders began to reminisce about the past. After a long time, he pessimistically expressed that once the Zerg really launched an attack, it would be difficult for the civilization of this galaxy to survive. It was best to keep the fire and move towards farther galaxies.

These words made the other elders hold their breath and did not immediately refute the proposal. They had experienced it firsthand and knew how terrifying the Zerg were.

Frankly speaking, a civilization alone in the universe cannot resist.

"Things are not that bad yet. The Zerg will not mobilize all its forces to launch a general attack on this system. In addition, we have allies who have the strength to contain the large Zerg army."

"You are right, but there is no harm in being prepared in advance. You must be prepared."

"agree."

"agree."

In a few words, a major event was decided, but it was just an interlude.

The old man who presided over the meeting quickly brought the topic to the point, "No matter what, the forward outpost cannot be abandoned."

"Generations after generations have worked for more than two thousand years to develop this galaxy. There is no reason to retreat without a fight."

In an instant, there was a chorus of echoes.

There are more than 300 living planets with a total population of more than 10 billion? No matter how much fire is retained, only tens of thousands of people can be taken away. As for the fate of other residents, it is self-evident.

The most important thing is that it is difficult to find a galaxy suitable for human habitation like Nemesis, and there will be too many unexpected situations encountered on the distant journey, which is extremely risky.

At this time, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and an old man with silver hair but a handsome figure walked in. He was already over a hundred years old, but in front of these ancestors, he was not even a baby, let alone a baby.

Don't know what to call it.

"What's the matter? Just tell me."

One of the congressmen attending the meeting knew that the person arriving was his descendant, the current head of the family business, but after countless generations, he didn't even know this little guy's name.

"Everyone... the forerunners."

Wood organized his words, bowed slightly, and called these ancestors who crawled out of the immortality cabin forerunners.

Then, he went straight to the topic: "There is news from the forward post that they have repelled the Zerg advance army and are in urgent need of reinforcements."

If Lu Li were present, he would definitely feel that Will looks somewhat similar to the silver-haired old man Wood.

"Repelled?"

"Just an army of criminals?"

There was no joy in the Speaker's heart, only doubts. In fact, he was ready to reorganize his arms and recapture the forward outpost again.

"With the efforts of the New World Bank and Roche Biology, the Zerg advance army was completely annihilated."

Wood explained in a deep voice and put his own company first.

After all, at the critical moment, all the heirs arrived on the front line to fight against the aliens. This is definitely a place worth showing off.

"Do you know the details?" After receiving the answer, the speaker nodded and asked.

On the side, Wood, who was surrounded by a group of old antiques, shook his head, and the long-lost tension filled his heart. In the eyes of the outside world, he was a famous banker in the interstellar world, standing at the top of the pyramid, but in front of the forerunners, he could only remain humble.

You know, even if these people are lying in the eternal cabin and falling into a deep sleep, they still control a force that is enough to restore order.

"Sorry, due to the unknown energy riot, interstellar communication was interfered with and it didn't take long to recover..."

Before he finished speaking, Wood was interrupted by his ancestor, "With the current level of technology, interstellar communication is not difficult to achieve, right?"

"yes."

"Very good, then let's contact the front line."

After a few minutes, the holographic projection became clearer and the facial outlines of several young people began to appear.

After a while, the Speaker fell into silence. Wood never imagined that the younger generation he was going to praise in front of his ancestors was eating and drinking.

In the video, four men and three women gathered around the oven and ate in the training cabin. There were various kinds of wine, dark beer, red wine, and sake beside them.

There was silence in the conference room. Different from the tense atmosphere as imagined, the appearance of these seven people did not look like they had experienced a war at all. Instead, they looked like they were going on an outing to the edge of the galaxy.

"There is tension and relaxation, not bad." The speaker spit out an ancient vocabulary.

the other side.

Lu Li put down the bottle of wine and looked at the virtual image behind him. The correspondent said that the senior management requested a remote video conference. He and Luo Yi thought it was an acquaintance and did not pay attention.

However... the person requesting communication turned out to be a row of withered ghosts in coffins with tubes stuck in their backs.

Although Lu Li did not communicate with them face to face, he could smell the rotten smell of these people through the screen, and felt that just a breeze could blow them down.

How many years did you live?

Considering the maturity of sleep cabin technology, these old people should have lived for at least two hundred years.

It can only be said that Lu Li has limited knowledge.

For two thousand years, the Forerunners have been sleeping in the eternal cabin, and will only be awakened by their servants when they encounter major events related to the existence of the galaxy.

The so-called sleep cabin is actually a little bit of research that scientists have done on the immortality cabin.

"Congratulations on your victory. This will be recorded in the history of human foreign wars."

After looking at Lu Li for a long time, the Speaker knew that the young man opposite him was the leader of the outpost defense battle, and he subconsciously sighed.

Humanity's desire for living space is engraved in their bones, but repeated failures have forced them to stop, shrink their sphere of influence, and form alliances to resist alien races.

Frankly speaking, in the war against the Zerg civilization, the number of victories of the human race was very few, and it was even necessary to find some shining points from a failed battle to use as propaganda materials to boost morale.

Of course, Lu Li didn't know what the other party was thinking, and sighed: "It's just a small victory. In order to deal with them, we lost a lot of elites."

I originally planned to use human lives to fill it, but in the end, the entire mecha team was involved.

One hundred people.

Compared to the base of thousands of people, it was indeed insignificant, but if given the choice, Lu Li would prefer that all the base defenders sacrifice themselves in exchange for their resurrection.

Mecha warriors can crush the Zerg and are more powerful than breakers equipped with individual weapons. They are strategic equipment...

At this time, Lu Li, who was deep in thought, heard a voice coming from the other side of the screen.

"The first batch of support will arrive in three days, and you will still be responsible for the command."

Three days?

Facts have proved that if the fleet sets off from the nearest living planet here, it will take half a year to fly at super-light speed to arrive.
