Chapter 1992 Welcome to the Fourth Civilization
1993. Welcome to the Fourth Civilization
"You? Interstellar refugees?" Admiral Chiara frowned.
"Yes. Refugees..." Keith Maxwell said, "More than 20 years ago, all we had was a refugee ship, hundreds of thousands of hibernating people, and a Just huge frozen embryos. Apart from that, we have nothing... So, starting more than 20 years ago, we worked bit by bit on a small habitable satellite, building our home and raising us. "Descendants."
"In 20 years... you have developed into a powerful warlord in the galaxy second only to the Galactic Empire?" Admiral Chiara felt unbelievable.
"Before I was awakened from hibernation, too many things happened. Our fourth civilization has been able to develop to this day and become so powerful in just 20 years, entirely because of our leader - Grand Duke of Dawn, Tang Dynasty "Xiao." Keith Maxwell said, "You may not be able to imagine how powerful and wise he is...Every decision he makes is full of foresight, and more importantly...full of wisdom." Aggression."
Admiral Chiara's expression became solemn. There is no doubt that the three words "aggression" are contrary to Chisling's philosophy. For them, this is also the most important thing. A dangerous word.
“Before the establishment of the Principality of Dawn, we called ourselves the Fourth Civilization. This title is still used even now, but the Principality of Dawn refers to the area we control, and the Fourth Civilization refers to our area. The spirit and will passed down from the refugee ship,” said Keith Maxwell.
"Why do you call it the Fourth Civilization? As far as I know, even the Galactic Empire's full name is just the First Empire of the Galaxy. What were the three civilizations before you?" Admiral Chiara was a little confused. Confuse.
“Perhaps because we have been drifting for too long, many of us have lost most of our memories of the past. But among the remaining pictures in my mind... I can indeed see wars and flames. , and death." Keith Maxwell looked at the ceiling, filled with emotion, his thoughts gradually wandering, "Why is it number four? Because in the database of the refugee ship, we were once the remnants of the entire galaxy. The last survivors in the entire galaxy, only a few hundred thousand, and those frozen embryos survived."
Admiral Chiara was silent.
"...Actually, I still can't believe that those terrible legends are true..." Keith Maxwell looked at the ceiling and said slowly, "Actually, even if it's in the database The records are also very fragmentary, but it can be roughly understood that at that time, our galaxy encountered three disasters that could be called natural disasters. Each of these natural disasters was enough to destroy the galaxy. For example, one of them was a so-called disaster. The ancient super AI of the 'Supreme Agreement', this AI sent a tachyon ghost signal to all robots in the entire galaxy, triggering a robot rebellion throughout the galaxy, and this is the simplest description... because the whole process is more Complex and even more terrifying..."
"At that time, all civilizations in the galaxy united to fight. Every nation with different cultures, habits, languages, and even living environments united. , fighting for survival. We succeeded the first time, and the second time, but the third time... we no longer have the strength." Keith Maxwell sighed, "So, we are. The fourth civilization. Because we have fought against the entire galaxy three times, and now it is the fourth time."
"The civilizations of the entire galaxy have united...I...can't imagine that scenario, but I just can't imagine it. It can be said that perhaps no grand epic can describe such a scene." Admiral Chiara shook his head with emotion.
Keith Maxwell said: "I don't know how much of the history left behind is true, but the facts are before us. There are many different races in the refugee ship. , and the last cultural inheritance they left behind. Only refugees who have experienced river system-level natural disasters will have such a diverse inheritance... because the inheritance of these civilizations can show how powerful and glorious they were. "So, Star Spirit is also one of them?" Admiral Qiara asked.
"That's right. I don't have any information about the protoss in my memory, but this is also natural... the wars all over the galaxy, for ordinary people like us, we will always see only the tip of the iceberg. . But I know that the protoss once created an extremely brilliant civilization and experienced painful rebirth. They are warriors worthy of respect," said Keith Maxwell.
"So, tell me about your Dawn Principality, what do you mean?" Admiral Chiara asked slowly.
“I want to tell you the code of conduct of the fourth civilization... Grand Duke Tang Xiao of Dawn, he inherited the will of countless races in the entire galaxy. Everything he did was on the basis of the entire galaxy. Highly." Keith Maxwell's tone contained admiration for Tang Xiao, "Even if there is only one refugee ship, he only wants to rule the entire galaxy, because for us, we have been destroyed three times. For a civilization, if you want to survive, integrating the power of the entire galaxy is the beginning."
"I understand... So our Qisi Territory is a piece of cake on the way to the expansion of your fourth civilization? Right?" Admiral Qiara's tone gradually turned cold.
Keith Maxwell stood up. The trace of cynicism in his expression completely disappeared, replaced by pride, disdain, and pride... He came to Admiral Chiara with the same tone. Becoming cold, "The fourth civilization is a civilization that carries the heritage of countless races. At least, here, we have unparalleled tolerance. You can't resist, but at least you can choose a decent gesture. Yes, my It means...Welcome to join the Fourth Civilization."
"Do you think I will betray my civilization?" Admiral Chiara's tone began to become a little dangerous.
“As you said, I am just a captain.” Keith Maxwell said, “But after all, I am the deputy commander of the Second Exploration Fleet of the Principality of Dawn. I was naturally involved in some of their plans and strategies, including this Borg-Lei incident. You will not hear any remorse or self-blame from me. I will only give what I think is the most appropriate advice - stand firm. A friend’s perspective.”
Admiral Chiara stood up and walked towards the door of the bridge.
Keith Maxwell said behind her: "You should understand that even if you resign, things will not change. But I think that at least you stay in this position, for Keith For leaders, it is the best choice.”
