Five Frozen Centuries - Chapter 260
Chapter 260: Heading to the Western Continent
The alliance meeting lasted for 10 days and 10 nights. The people working during the meeting felt tired, but they did not dare be careless.
This was because this alliance meeting was very crucial. This was the first alliance meeting in history. Many things needed to be discussed clearly. One could not be careless. Once something was confirmed, it could not be changed.
These rules were agreed by all races. If one violated them, one would be attacked by all races.
Apart from that, the alliance meeting also needed to determine the specific approach to dealing with the Zergs in the future. This was what the thousands of races were most concerned about, and it was also the most time-consuming issue.
Ma Tengyun posed a key question. “I’m guessing that the Zergs did not come to our Solar System by chance. I’m afraid that they were chased here by another civilization. Since a civilization is chasing after the Zergs, I’m bold enough to guess that this meddlesome civilization might be a kind civilization. We can try to contact them. There are two benefits to doing so. First, we can use their power to kill the Zergs. Second, we can trade with them and obtain some intelligence from the galaxy.”
However, a demon immediately objected. “What if that civilization is malicious? What if it’s too strong for us to resist?”
The demons realized that they were still too weak compared to the civilizations that could dominate the universe. They could be exterminated if they were not careful. They had to be careful!
Ma Tengyun explained, “It’s understandable that everyone is worried. However, in reality, this civilization has come into contact with us humans a long time ago and helped us. You all know that the Soaring Cloud is extremely powerful, but you don’t know that the core of the Soaring Cloud is one of the technologies that this civilization once left on Earth. In addition, the assault armor and the Divine Battle Armor that we are analyzing are all technologies left behind by them. Zhang Ya, give the photos of this civilization’s people to the person in charge of the alliance.”
A woman around 25 years old led the way in. She was holding a huge pile of information in her hands. Some of the information was written in words, while other information was in photos. Besides the panda race, the canine race, and the cat race, the demons did not know how to read either. However, they could look at photos. Hence, when they saw the photos, they all felt disbelief.
“How is this possible?”
The picture in her hands showed a race very similar to the human race. That species also had four limbs, a body, and a head. However, its face was very different from a human face, and its skin was also rougher than human skin.
Ma Tengyun said, “I personally think that all the species in the world are evolving in the same direction. It’s just that some species evolve quickly, while others evolve slowly. It’s just like the way some of your bodies became similar to human bodies when you reached the Legendary stage. This might be a trend of species evolution. The hands that evolved were used to handle tools. The mouth became smaller, and the brain became larger to make one smarter.”
Ma Tengyun did not say much. Most of the demons did not understand what he was saying, but they understood that the Legendary body was very similar to the human body.
The Legendary-level Golden Eagle nodded. “I understand what you mean. You’re saying that there are many ways to cultivate. One of them is to cultivate to the extreme of a ‘human’. Creatures like the Zergs cultivate to the extreme of a ‘worm’. That’s why we’re the same kind of people as that humanoid civilization. The Zerg civilization is our common enemy. That’s what you’re saying, right?”
The demon had already addressed him as a human because their cultivation was indeed a transformation process from demon to human.
Ma Tengyun nodded. “Brother Golden Eagle is right. That’s about it. That’s why I think we can still come into contact with this civilization. However, we have to be fully prepared. Most importantly, we can’t let the Zergs continue growing. Everyone saw the footage sent by the satellite. If we let them continue evolving like this, human weapons might be useless. Then, we will really have nothing to rely on. We will definitely lose!”
Although Ma Tengyun said that, he looked confident. He did not panic at all. He acted as if everything was under his control.
A demon saw through his confidence and said, “City Lord Ma, tell us your plan. We all believe in the wisdom of humans.”
Ma Tengyun smiled and said, “Although we formed the Earth Alliance, it’s actually just the Northern Continent. Next, I plan to get the alliance to send people to the Western Continent, the Eastern Continent, and the Southern Continent. We will combine the forces of the four continents to build the strongest battleship and join forces with another humanoid civilization to launch a fatal attack against the Zergs!”
The demons were confused, but they did not ask any more questions. Ma Tengyun added, “The Northern Continent is also known as the Dao and Xianxia Continent. The Western Continent is also known as the Sword and Magic Continent or the Dungeon and Dragon Continent. The Eastern Continent is known as the Technology and Mutant Continent, while the Southern Continent is known as the Totem and Magus Continent. I believe that with the power of the four continents, we can protect ourselves even if we can’t destroy the Zergs. Even if that humanoid civilization has ill intentions, we don’t have to worry.”
The demons looked at each other. Although they knew that there were five continents on Earth, they did not know that the other continents had so many weird titles. From the sound of it, could Ma Tengyun have already traveled to the other continents?
The Legendary creature of the Mystic Turtle Race asked, “City Lord Ma, are you planning to replicate the alliance between humans and demons in the Northern Continent in the other three continents? In that case, you have to ask the Legendary creatures of the human race to help you. After all, only he can do this!”
Wei Huo slowly opened his eyes. His golden eyes scanned every corner of the hall. The humans and demons lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.
Although Wei Huo had been resting in the hall for 10 days and 10 nights, he had heard most of their discussions.
He asked Ma Tengyun, “Which continent is your next stop?”
Ma Tengyun replied, “The next stop is the Western Continent. I’ve already contacted the people of that continent. The strength of both the humans and demons in that continent is generally inferior to our Northern Continent. Moreover, the terrain is not like our continent. There are many islands there, and the terrain is rough. If you want to go, it would be best to build a huge ship. The Soaring Cloud will stay behind to prevent the interstellar Zergs from attacking again.”
Ma Tengyun told the demons about his plan. He told them that he had already built the ship and could set off at any time. The next problem was the candidates.
The Legendary demons scrambled to register. They all wanted to explore the Western Continent. This was a good opportunity to broaden their horizons. They might even experience a fortuitous encounter.
