Chapter 2600 Temporary price increase


"Am'ke, have you ever thought that your actions will make your colleagues look very cowardly?"

After removing his hand from the hourglass, Soshyan let out a slight sigh. A teasing voice.

"Even if you really take on this responsibility for them, they may not be grateful to you, and may even be hostile to you, because you represent a period of shame that cannot be erased on their part, and may cause harm to them later. You are labeled as a person who has lost power and humiliated the country, so that you will never be able to stand up again, and you will be completely erased from history, so as to eliminate their sense of shame."

Am'Ke just replied calmly:

"Your Highness the Phoenix King, your thinking is very much like that of a Jiu La."

"Huh? Can I take that as an insult?"

"I'm just stating the fact that we don't have so many dirty political calculations, and we don't have so many power struggles and intrigues with each other. Only follow the Supreme Good Way."

"Then I am even more curious, how do you ether control other clans to make them so obedient to you? It is almost like a kind of mind control, it is spiritual power. Is it some kind of technology?”

“I don’t know what psychic energy is, let alone what kind of technology it is.”

“How do you explain it?”

"Selflessness, dedication, everything is only for the higher good."

"Can you guarantee that every ether is like this?"

"I can."

Soshi Yang Shake his head.

“If it is true, then it is definitely not normal. Any group of thoughtful individuals should not have such a high degree and purity of ideological consistency, unless you are a Gestalt like Tyran. Biota, but it's obviously not that your secrets are well hidden. We dissected the corpses of those who accompanied the ether and found no psychic organs or pheromone organs."

But his words did not offend the ether.

“We have never considered using control methods to rule the people. We are guides and facilitators, but by no means rulers. Only those tyrants in Jura like to use poison gas and explosions. We use collars and hunger to intimidate our people, and we use superstition and nihilistic idols to hypnotize our people, but we won’t.”

Soshiyang clapped his hands.

"Very confident boasting, then N'Ke, do you know what the consequences will be if you take over this responsibility?"

"Of course I know, so many sacrifices and deaths. , if it can be resolved by just apologizing and kneeling down, then it would be too easy.”

What Am'ke said was the subtext hidden in the first article of the armistice treaty that most ethers did not understand - Soshyan only said to kneel down and apologize, but did not say that he could come back. This means that Ke'shan must sacrifice a high-level ether and use his blood to appease the anger. Soshyan laughed a few times, lowered his eyes and shook his head.

"Okay, what a heroic man who dares to be a hero."

"I am not a hero, nor a hero, I am amun'ke, an ether, I have the obligation and responsibility to bear all this for the sake of the greater good."

Soshiyang raised his hand and pointed at him.

"I said you are a hero, and you are a hero. What I like most in my life is a hero."

Then he waved his hand, and a Spindle Bee that had previously been thought to be a statue was raised. Walking over with a scroll.

"Then we have settled the first item."

Am'ke opened the scroll and noticed that it was made of a flexible material with titanium and Ada wrote a series of articles in two languages.

But this is a little different from the previous ones. For example, the number of galaxies to be handed over to the Arrakans has changed from one to three, which is marked by the Tau as Sha'Drag, Hou' Sarn and the three systems of Delmara, among which Shah'Drag and Hou'San once had Tau colonies, but during the Tyranid invasion of 902.M41, both colonial systems suffered devastation. The original livable world has turned into a dead world, and the colonies have been completely abandoned. However, the Tau still have some resource extraction stations and monitoring stations there, and they regularly send fleets to patrol. In a sense It is indeed part of the Ke'shan family.

The previous treaty only demanded the Delmara system, which had been ravaged by the Tyranids, but there was no Tau colony because it was far away from the home world and was surrounded by a dense asteroid belt. It is not suitable for development, but if a military stronghold and naval base are established here, it will become a good space fortress area. The Ke'shan family already had a similar plan after the Tyrannic War, intending to fortify the Delmara system. As the eastern barrier of Home World, the investment is too huge, and Home World has just experienced the Tyrannic War and is in dire straits, so the plan can only be continuously postponed and may not be officially implemented until M42. However, the Tau are still there A series of monitoring stations and unmanned small airports have been established there to pave the way for future major projects.

Originally, the Eternal Court wanted to secede this place, and the Ether Parliament could only reluctantly do so, but now it wants two more galaxies, and the seams between Am'ke's noses are tightly squeezed together.

He looked up at Suoshiyang and said seriously:

"Your Highness the Phoenix King, why did you change your mind temporarily?"

"It was not me who changed your mind temporarily, it was you. , it was you who rejected my initial conditions, and now that I have found it again, it is definitely not as good as it was at the beginning.”

"What's the point of you wanting these places? The Arrakans don't have that big a population, and I believe you wouldn't even bother to occupy those barren lands."

"The development of the Arrakans won't cost you anything. Worried."

The smile in Soshiyang's words made N'ke helpless. He probably guessed that this mysterious and powerful race really wanted to support Arakan, a puppet who was extremely hostile to the Tau. .

Am'ke's guess is correct. Soshyan wants to support the Arakans near the Ke'shan family. This is not specifically targeting the Ke'shan family. In fact, they are not worthy of doing this. On the one hand, Shiyan is building a barrier for the Kingdom of Lilarsus, because the nearby star field is indeed not peaceful. Greenskins and Tyranids often appear, and the Royal Court has limited troops and cannot send a large number of troops to garrison. Therefore, a powerful The vassal race can effectively relieve the royal court's national defense pressure, so that the royal court's army will not run around when encountering small problems.

As for the population problem of Arakan, it is actually not a big problem in itself, because this race actually belongs to the type with high reproductive efficiency, but their breeding process is more complicated, generally a normal life span (80 -120 years old) female Arakans can have 3-4 breeding opportunities in their lifetime. After interacting with the male in the picture for a period of time, they will first undergo a gestation period of about a year, and then give birth to 6-20 eggs. This Reproduction efficiency is much higher than viviparous reproduction.
