Chapter 270: Seeing In A New Light
Fan Ren’s physical fitness was extremely good, which could be slightly proven by comparing to Jin Qiaoying who was limp as mud in the crook of his arm.
He didn’t even break much of a sweat.
Fan Ren turned his head with a smile and glanced at those fluttering phoenix eyes, finally hugging her snow-white jade-like delicate body a bit more tenderly.
“You’ve worked hard.”
He knew his own combat prowess; many times when he was with Zeng Yingying, he was the one exercising restraint.
And today, he, who had been ‘single’ for over a decade, had finally let loose once.
It was just tough on this target who had been severely overwhelmed; just a few hours ago, she had still been a virgin.
“Hans Civilization!”
Jin Qiaoying’s voice was extremely pleasant, especially in her current powerless state, that lazy voice full of feminine charm made Fan Ren involuntarily press his head closer to her upon hearing it by his ear.
Feeling the warm, sweet breath coming to his ear, Fan Ren’s eyes lit up.
But soon he frowned and said: “Hans Civilization is indeed a good choice, but there’s a problem!”
“Sirius Civilization.”
Fan Ren looked at her in surprise; he really hadn’t expected Jin Qiaoying to be equally sensitive to the relationships between surrounding civilizations’ forces.
“Yes, it’s Sirius Civilization.”
He sighed thoughtfully and said: “All along, the main reason our star domain has avoided war is because it’s the backyard of Sirius Civilization. Even though their main focus is on the Galactic Core, they still maintain a certain degree of attention here due to our large population base.
Under this situation, the eight civilizations in our surroundings, including ours, appear to get along ‘harmoniously’ on the surface. After all, in terms of overall apparent strength, even if all our civilizations unite and combine all our fleets, we are no match for Sirius Civilization.
We lack main super flagships that can serve as fleet cores, and we also lack resources.
Even in terms of ordinary flagships like Dreadnoughts, which are flagships that Tier 2 Civilizations can build at their peak, the numbers we civilizations have are extremely limited.
In this situation, the struggles between us civilizations seem utterly meaningless.
Even when Hans Civilization’s resources were depleted to the point of being unable to assemble Battleships, they didn’t turn their gaze to surrounding civilizations of the same level, but merely sent a fleet of 500 Battleships to expedition against the Solar System Civilization.
Even now, years later, they must have long known the news of that fleet’s annihilation, yet they haven’t reacted at all.
Clearly, these civilizations view Sirius Civilization from a perspective of near despair.
But it’s understandable; after years of development, plus the spoils from swallowing Fox Civilization, Sirius Civilization has accumulated over a dozen Titan-class Battleships under its command.
As for other large and super-large firepower Ships like Dreadnoughts and Battleships, their numbers are beyond counting.
After all, Fox Civilization’s Dreadnought solution had greater advantages among same-level Ships, allowing them to amass wealth massively on the Starfield Market with this Ship solution.
Similarly, with their capability to build such Dreadnoughts, the number of these Dreadnoughts under their command must not be few.
This explains why us rear Tier 2 Civilizations get along so peacefully.
Our struggles are meaningless in front of Sirius Civilization.
What do you think?”
Thinking of this near-insoluble situation, Fan Ren felt some emotional fatigue in his head; he subconsciously pressed his head against Jin Qiaoying’s swan-like slender neck, greedily breathing in the fresh fragrance emanating from her jade-like skin.
Jin Qiaoying gently shifted a bit to the side, allowing Fan Ren’s head to rest more naturally and comfortably, before continuing his words:
“You’re overcomplicating the issue.”
“Hmm? How so?”
Fan Ren didn’t lift his head, keeping his eyes closed.
“Hans Civilization is just our disguise; we’re not relying on Hans Civilization for development.
What is our main purpose?”
Jin Qiaoying asked, and seeing Fan Ren didn’t respond, she smiled lightly with amusement, lovingly holding Fan Ren’s head and softly said:
“Our main purpose is to use Hans Civilization as a disguise for our Fox Pirate Group, to enable reasonable trade with Human Civilization.
If Hans Civilization is defeated and occupied by us.
Then our Fox Pirate Group can use their identity to conduct sales and purchases of some Technological Products on the Starfield Market.
Note, only some, not all.
In this case, Hans Civilization, relying on its official identity, can legally and reasonably conduct economy and trade with Solar System Civilization.
As for trade surpluses or deficits, those are just numbers that can be arbitrarily adjusted.
Meanwhile, our Fox Pirate Group can continue to develop hiddenly in the Ross 154 planetary system and carry out various operations.
After all, in Sirius Civilization’s current state, it’s impossible for them to expend energy noticing minor pirate forces among the low-level small fries in the rear.
Look, Fox Civilization was once their main war enemy, and even after their civilization’s destruction until now, Fox Pirate Group still survives in this universe, which is enough proof that in Sirius Civilization’s eyes, these powerless Pirate Groups aren’t worth their attention.
If everything goes smoothly, under our control, Hans Civilization can freely sell High-Tech Products on the Starfield Market under an anonymous identity, and the profits from these products can be handed to Human Civilization through ‘trade’ with Human Civilization using the official identity.
As for the scale of this ‘blood transfusion’, we’ll decide that later based on our operations here; no rush.”
As Jin Qiaoying spoke, that confident expression from her days as an Iron Lady reappeared in her phoenix eyes; she didn’t stop and continued:
“This way, from Human Civilization’s standpoint, Human Civilization would have two forces: one overt and one covert.
In fact, in facing surrounding other civilizations in the future, Human Civilization, relying on these two forces, might even achieve certain strategic purposes without the main civilization needing to act.
Moreover, based on your and Boss Li’s construction ideas, in warship development, our Fox Pirate Group will assemble a large number of small and medium Ships with Stealth Technology for special operations.
And for the main fleet, we’ll focus mainly on the construction task of Dreadnought Spaceships.
With this fleet composition, I think our combat concept is all about ‘speed’.
Right?”
