Zhao Chen looked at the Lord Frey on the other side of the video window.

How is the development going over there?

"How many interstellar warships have you prepared?" Zhao Chen asked bluntly.

Lord Frey remained silent.

"Our civilization is now capable of manufacturing T2 interstellar warships."

"We currently have thirty T2 interstellar warships and nearly one hundred T1 interstellar warships." Zhao Chen directly threw down the cards in his hand.

Then he said calmly, "Right now, we're all in the same boat."

Our strengths are roughly equal.

However, the other trial civilization might not be so certain.

If we don't unite and help each other to overcome this difficulty, then we will both be eliminated, just like that trial civilization that broadcast the message across the universe.

Hearing what Zhao Chen said...

After a moment of silence, Lord Frey said, "We currently have one hundred T1-class interstellar warships and thirty T2-class interstellar warships."

"It has been a year since that cosmic broadcast."

That Dax Empire civilization could attack us at any time.

Our top priority is to continuously improve our own strength.

However, I believe we cannot be completely passive either.

I have developed an exploration device that can transmit signals across galaxies.

I plan to deploy to a neighboring star system, infiltrate its local network, and then transmit the intelligence gathered back.

"Aren't you worried about revealing our coordinates?" Lord Frey asked, frowning.

"This exploration device is not deployed in a straight line. I first deploy it in any direction around it, then turn it at a random location, and then move it toward the target star system."

In this way, even if the Dax Empire discovers our exploration device, it will not be able to find our star system coordinates.

And it has been a year now.

You probably already know that.

At the latest, in two years, the Dax Empire civilization may find the location of our star system.

So instead of waiting and anticipating, we should first figure out just how strong our enemy really is.

When will the attack be launched?

In that case, perhaps we can still make some preparations!

Hearing Zhao Chen's idea...

Lord Frey thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, saying, "That's feasible."

"In addition, in the time to come."

I believe that our two civilizations should establish a rapid response mechanism.

First, we need to exchange intelligence information regarding the Dax Empire civilization.

After all, they are our common enemy.

Until we defeat this enemy, at least we are not the enemy.

That's right.

"I have no objection."

“We can even establish a trade network.”

Although we had previously agreed to use stars as the boundary.

However, there are bound to be some resources that I don't have here but you do there.

Or there might be a situation where you have it on your end, but I don't.

Therefore, in order to develop rapidly, I believe it is necessary for us to establish a trade channel.

“No problem at all.” Lord Frey agreed without much consideration.

The ensuing conversation went smoothly without any major issues.

Everyone here is smart and knows what to do now.

——————

More than half a year has passed again.

The launched probes successively transmitted messages back.

After being declassified, this information was presented to Zhao Chen and other JF-17 officers.

There's good news and bad news here.

The good news is that these probes have reached the target galaxy and have also found valuable intelligence clues.

The bad news is that the Dax Empire civilization has already scanned the location of their star system.

They are expected to launch an attack on their star system within six months.

According to the information reported back by the probe.

The Dax Empire civilization prepared three hundred interstellar warships just for the purpose of invading their star system.

This is only what they know.

If I don't know, then I don't know.

"That's the intelligence."

Three hundred interstellar warships, of which at least fifty are T2-class interstellar warships.

And it cannot be ruled out that this might just be their advance force. Zhao Chen looked at the group of JF-17 officers in front of him.

Marshal Chu Xuan pondered for a moment, then asked, "Is the technical department able to determine the landing location of the enemy starship after it has traveled at warp speed?"

Or perhaps it's guiding the landing point of these interstellar warships.

"You want to use warp speed interception equipment to launch an ambush?" Marshal Medusa immediately guessed Marshal Chu Xuan's idea.

Warp interception is a tactic frequently used in the era of warp-speed navigation.

It's quite effective.

The only way to prevent this type of warfare is to disperse the fleet, first sending a reconnaissance fleet to the target star system, and then setting off only after confirming its safety.

"The enemy's technology is developing very rapidly now."

Therefore, I estimate that they will not be very cautious and will most likely launch a full-scale attack.

If we can use warp drive interception tactics to intercept and destroy these three hundred interstellar warships.

Even if this is just a part of the Dax Empire's interstellar warships, it still buys us more time!

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "I will have the staff and technical departments verify whether this operation is feasible."

If possible, follow this plan.

In the subsequent meeting.

The group discussed various combat scenarios.

Warp speed interception and ambush warfare is undoubtedly the most suitable, as it can greatly reduce the disadvantages caused by their lack of starships in such a combat scenario.

This would also greatly reduce the number of casualties in their fleet.

After a meeting ended.

Zhao Chen contacted Lord Frey and shared this information with him.

They also informed the other party that they planned to use warp drive interception to fight the enemy.

"If it's a warp speed interception."

"Perhaps our Frey civilization has a way," the Frey Lord said.

Zhao Chen was somewhat surprised.

Lord Frey continued, "Our Frey civilization has now reached the T2 technology stage."

A technological device that we developed.

It can guide the enemy to warp speed.

Similar to the principle of black holes.

In this region, starships traveling at warp speeds will be automatically attracted to this area.

"And it won't alert the enemy," said Lord Frey.

Zhao Chen's eyes lit up: "That's good."

We'll assess the feasibility of this plan later, if it's feasible.

"Then let's work together to ambush the Dax Empire's interstellar fleet at the edge of our galaxy!"

Lord Frey nodded.

The meeting has ended.

Lord Frey leaned back in his chair, his gaze somewhat complicated.

"Master, do we really want to continue cooperating with this Xiaolong civilization?"

Based on our observations, the Xiaolong civilization developed at a very rapid pace.

Although they are currently only a T2 technological civilization, the T2 interstellar warships they produce have extremely high combat power.

The combat power of a single interstellar warship may even surpass that of us!

If we defeat the Dax Empire civilization, we will inevitably have to fight the Wyvern civilization!

"Aren't we going to make any preparations?" a subordinate asked from the side.

After thinking for a moment, Lord Frey said, "The most urgent task is to deal with the Dax Empire civilization."

As for the Xiaolong civilization... although it poses a threat, we must first overcome the current hurdle.

Let's talk about the future after we get through this hurdle.

If we can't even get past this hurdle...

How can we even talk about fighting the Wyvern civilization then?

The subordinates fell silent.

Lord Frey asked, "How is the construction of those altars going?"

"The construction of the altar was completed on schedule."

"The altar for T3 is already completed, and the warship is finished as well," the subordinate said.

"T3, huh..." Lord Frey's expression was not very good.

This T3 altar was naturally intended for the blood sacrifice of T3-level interstellar warships.

However, the cost of sacrificing the T3 starships is very high, requiring at least a hundred Freys and the blood of a billion people.

The blood of a billion people is one thing, although it is equivalent to one-tenth of the population of this planet.

But in his eyes, it was just consumables.

The biggest problem is those hundred Frey people.

To increase the success rate, the number of Frey people was increased to three hundred.

Keep in mind that there were only 10,000 people in total during the trial.

This immediately reduces the population by 3%, which is a short-sighted act, and how could Lord Frey not feel distressed?

"In addition, thirty T2 starship altars and one hundred T1 starship altars are ready."

Just give the order.

"The blood sacrifice ritual can be completed in a single day!" the subordinate said.

"Without my order, the blood sacrifice consciousness shall not begin," Lord Frey said solemnly.

"yes!"

He was truly unwilling to sacrifice the lives of his people unless it was a critical moment.

............

On Frey Star

The residents here now almost all have expressionless faces and are very serious about everything they do.

There are a large number of police robots around.

No one dares to break any law.

Because there are very strict laws here.

A young man returned home with his backpack. As he closed the door, he looked into his home, where all the curtains were drawn and not a single ray of light was visible.

He closed the door.

I walked to a door on the side and knocked on it.

The door was slowly opened.

There was a woman inside.

"You're back?"

"You're back. I packed some food for you." The man handed over the packed food.

The woman took the food and went back inside.

There are no windows or electronic devices in this room.

There wasn't even an electrical outlet or a light.

There wasn't even a bed.

There was only one bed laid out on the floor.

The man closed the door and crouched down to gaze at the woman.

"You didn't get any points deducted today, did you?" The woman looked up with concern at a sign on the man's chest.

The sign says 85.

Just like yesterday, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"No," the man said with a smile.

He looked at the sign on the woman's chest; the number on the sign was 63.

"Was anyone arrested from your company today?" the woman asked.

The man paused for a moment.

Who is it?

"Old Zhang? Or Little Li?" the woman asked.

"It's Lao Zhang." The man sat on the ground and said helplessly, "He swore today and got points deducted."

When warned, he had a conflict with the robot, lost his temper, and smashed the robot.

He scored less than sixty points in the end and was arrested.

The woman lowered her head, her eyes filled with fear.

"Do you think we're destined to live like this for the rest of our lives?"

Those who were arrested never appeared again.

I felt like we were being watched all around us. The woman was trembling.

Helpless, the man closed his eyes.

After the Frey Empire unified the planet, everything was fine at first.

However, the law was later strengthened, and all violators were severely punished.

Those who could have been sentenced to life imprisonment were all sentenced to death.

Some who could have been sentenced to thirty years were instead sentenced to death.

Under such strict laws, no one thought much of it.

After all, people don't sympathize with those who break this level of law.

Later, it escalated further.

The crimes continued to escalate.

Some crimes that were originally considered minor have been upgraded to the death penalty.

Later, a law was introduced.

Points-based law.

Everyone's life will be under the surveillance of the Kingdom of Frey, and any violation of the rules will result in point deductions.

More seriously, some violations, such as running red lights or violating road or community regulations, will result in points being deducted.

Littering, swearing, and other bad habits will also result in points being deducted.

When your score drops below 60, you will be arrested, and none of those arrested will ever come back.

Some people think it's better to stay at home, but since when did even staying at home become unsafe?

It has been discovered that the Frey Empire can use various electronic devices to monitor everyone's daily life and behavior.

So even staying at home isn't safe.

Only by cutting off everything related to electronics can one feel a little bit of security.

But how long can a person endure such a high-pressure lifestyle?

The man's wife was forced to stay inside the small house, afraid to go out even a step.

Recently, there has been a surge in suicides.

However, some rumors have been circulating.

I don't know when all the crematoriums were taken over by the state, supposedly to handle the bodies in a more environmentally friendly and efficient way.

Furthermore, the bodies of those who have just died will be taken care of immediately.

Even the bodies of those who committed suicide were promptly removed.

Therefore, some people speculate that the Frey Empire may be conducting some kind of experiment in order to collect more corpses.

The strictness of the law is also due to this consideration.

In this way, a large number of corpses can be obtained.

However, under the rule of the Frey Empire, such rumors could only be circulated in private, and no one dared to utter a single word of discussion.

"Someday."

"The world is about to change." The man stroked his wife's head and hugged her tightly.

His tone was incredibly firm.

And inside his pocket lay a badge.

Those were some rebel forces established on the planet Frey.

Lord Frey paid no attention to these people; in his eyes, they were nothing more than ants.
