Chapter 1394

"So after going around in circles for so long, aren't you still planning to invade Earth?"

Luo Quan curled her lips speechlessly, thinking it's no wonder this alien would find the US as its successor.

This shamelessness is simply inherited.

"Please do not slander this noble sentiment; we really came with the intention of letting Earth progress."

The alien emphasized its intentions again, but Luo Quan didn't believe even half a punctuation mark: "Earth doesn't need the progress you bring; we can complete technological evolution ourselves. Besides, who knows if you came to Earth for colonization."

"We do indeed want to colonize." The alien answered very honestly, "But this doesn't conflict with our desire to bring progress to Earth, and all of this will be born on the basis of peace; it will never bring any war to Earth."

Luo Quan sneered in response: "This is the first time I've heard that colonization can be done without bringing war. Do you really take me for a three-year-old child?

No need to waste any more breath trying to fool me. Now you have two choices: either get out of Earth immediately, or wait for me to find you.

If I wait until I find you, it won't be as simple as just getting out of Earth."

"Sigh..." The alien sighed, "To tell you the truth, Earthling, the Starbuck civilization has already targeted Earth. They will arrive on Earth in at most four hundred years, and at fastest four years. Without the help of us Aiya people, it is impossible for you to defeat this advanced civilization on your own!"

Luo Quan chuckled: "Another fresh claim. Keep making it up; I want to see what other tricks you can come up with."

"I swear in the name of the God of the Aiya people, I, Frika, am not lying!"

The alien didn't type this time, but directly emitted a sound.

Following the sound, Luo Quan discovered a blue ball of light emerging from the ground, with a little person less than fifty centimeters tall standing inside.

Although it looked very much like a human, this little person had quite a few colorful feathers, looking as if it had evolved from some kind of bird.

"So it was you playing tricks."

Luo Quan rushed up and grabbed the ball of light, only to find that the surface of the ball was very slippery; as soon as her fingers applied force, it flew far away.

Frika laughed proudly: "Earthling, your strength is indeed very strong, but please don't underestimate the technology of us Aiya people. Even though the planet I am on is only a branch of the Aiya Empire scattered in the universe, it has inherited a portion of the Empire's high-precision technology, which is definitely not something ordinary low-to-mid-level civilizations can..."

Suddenly, Frika's voice stopped abruptly.

"Speak, keep speaking."

Luo Quan channeled the power of the Stainless Immortal Body, directly reaching out and penetrating the light film, grabbing Frika's body.

Only then did she discover that there was another layer of light film on Frika's body, but this couldn't stop her body either.

"No! This is impossible!" Frika's little face was almost distorted with surprise, "Why can you break through the strong interaction force field shield? This is simply unscientific!"

Luo Quan smiled proudly: "There is more than just science in the universe; I am a cultivator."

Saying this, she lifted Frika in front of her and observed her carefully.

Although there were quite a few bird feathers on her body, Frika's appearance was still quite good-looking. Those who didn't know would think she was cosplaying some kind of bird-feather maiden.

It's just that she was really too small, less than half a meter, and in her hand, she wasn't much longer than a Starbucks coffee cup.

"Are all you Aiya people this small, or is it just that you are relatively small?" Luo Quan asked with a smile.

"I come from the Hummingbird tribe of Aiya Star. No, you rude Earthling, let me go immediately! This does not conform to cosmic etiquette!"

Frika struggled desperately, only to find that Luo Quan's large hand was even more powerful than the heaven-and-earth-standing Elephant tribe people; no matter how she struggled, it had no effect.

Seeing this, Luo Quan snorted coldly: "Save your energy. Since you're in my hands, don't be restless. Now I only need to apply a little force, and your little life will be gone."

"Aiya people are no cowards. If you want to kill, then kill! But the transmitter will send the news of my death back to Aiya. Your Earth will no longer receive the protection of Aiya, and you can just wait to be exterminated by the Starbuck civilization!"

Frika gnashed her teeth at Luo Quan, but showed no intention of begging for mercy.

"Not big in size, but quite tough in character."

Frika's death-defying appearance made Luo Quan think a bit higher of her, and she put away her playful mood, asking seriously: "Come on, tell me, what exactly did you Aiya people come to Earth for, and what's the deal with this Starbuck civilization?"

"If I tell you, will you spare my life?"

Frika asked pitifully.

"I thought you were really not afraid of death." Luo Quan almost laughed out loud, "Rest assured, as long as you are cooperative enough, and I haven't discovered you doing any bad things on Earth, you don't need to worry about losing your life in my hands.

But if I find out later that you've committed any illegal or criminal acts on Earth, then that's hard to say."

Frika said with a smile: "Besides providing some cutting-edge technology to the US, the worst thing I've done is scold people on the internet. That shouldn't cost me my life, right?"

Luo Quan shook her head: "That shouldn't, if everything you said is true."

"We Aiya people are a powerful cosmic-level civilization, located in the Ailazeya Supercluster in the central star region, and the planet I am on is a colonial planet scattered by the Aiya people.

Of course, when we colonized there, we didn't have any conflict with the natives on it; we peacefully took over the control of that planet."

Frika's answer made Luo Quan want to laugh: "Is it really as peaceful as you say? Why would their home planet easily hand it over to you Aiya people?"

"Forgive my bluntness, when a low-level civilization sees a high-level civilization descending like a god, very few people will refuse the advanced technology brought by the high-level civilization.

These technologies can make people live longer, healthier, and have a better life. The low-level civilization has no reason to refuse."

Luo Quan frowned and asked: "I remember there is a rule in the cosmic iron law that high-level civilizations cannot affect the development of low-level civilizations. You Aiya people are so bold, you even dare to ignore the cosmic iron law?"

"I didn't expect you to even know about the cosmic iron law. It seems Earth is not as simple as I imagined."

Frika showed a slightly surprised smile, then said: "But please don't misunderstand. When we branch personnel left the Aiya home planet, we carried technology below the high-level civilization.

According to the cosmic iron law, as long as the technology hasn't reached the level of a star cluster civilization, it doesn't count as high-level interference in low-level. In this regard, we are very precise."

"Then do I still have to praise you a few times?" Luo Quan curled her lips, "And then? You colonized one planet and it wasn't enough, now you want to colonize a second one, right?"

"Originally, there was no such plan. After all, there are several planets suitable for transformation near the planet we colonized; there was no need to run more than ten light-years away to colonize Earth."

Frika sighed and told Luo Quan everything: "But the Starbuck civilization discovered Earth. They have already sent a fleet to Earth, preparing to transform this place into a planetary warship.

We Aiya people and the Chen tribe behind the Starbuck civilization are mortal enemies; of course, we won't sit idly by and watch them grow stronger.

But we are too far from Earth, and the Starbuck fleet departed earlier. If we wait for our fleet to arrive, I'm afraid the Earthlings would have already died out.

So as one of the best astronauts in terms of comprehensive quality on Aiya Star, I was commissioned to Earth to improve your technology, so that you can be strong enough to resist the Starbuck fleet until the Aiya reinforcements arrive."

Speaking of her mission, Frika couldn't help but puff out her chest a bit higher, her expression very proud.

It's a pity she's flat-chested; you can't see the scale at all.

Luo Quan asked suspiciously: "So why didn't you just show advanced technology to Earthlings like you sent me a message just now, and let technology explode?"

Frika answered helplessly: "Letting billions of Earthlings see it at the same time consumes too much quantum energy, and I'm afraid that after you get the technology, the first thing you think about isn't how to resist aliens, but to attack your own people first.

Just weapons like nuclear bombs are enough to destroy humanity hundreds of times over, and the antimatter weapons I can provide are countless times stronger than nuclear bombs.

If someone builds them first, I can't guarantee whether you will use them to resist aliens or to exterminate your own people first.

After all, in the few decades since Earth started, I have seen too many stupid and short-sighted behaviors; human nature is really hard to grasp."

"So you just provided help to the US, and when you found it didn't work, you didn't change to another target to support?"

Luo Quan was a bit speechless, thinking this alien is a bit dull.

If a tree grows crooked, why not dig it up and replant it?

"Originally, I intended to change the person I support, but a while ago I received news that the Aiya fleet that was rushing over suddenly researched a new engine, and the speed increased by more than thirty percent, which will definitely arrive earlier than the Starbuck civilization.

So the fleet commander told me not to act rashly; it will be in time to transform Earth after they arrive."

Frika's answer made Luo Quan frown: "So, you are afraid that if Earth's technology evolves too fast and exceeds your control, you simply won't give the technology, right?"

"We have no choice; after all, we are outsiders. Who knows if Earthlings will be grateful after we bring you technology.

Earthlings haven't done ungrateful things? I have read the story of the farmer and the snake!"

Frika's defense was righteous, and Luo Quan was speechless for a moment.

But soon she thought of another key question: "If... I mean if, the Starbuck fleet also undergoes technological evolution on the way here?"

Frika didn't answer, but thought seriously about this very likely situation.

Aiya people can break through a certain technology during the voyage; of course, the Starbuck people also have such a possibility.

And if they are unlucky and the Starbuck people evolve more, then the fun will be too big.

Maybe by then, Earth and the Aiya people will be wiped out in one pot.

Of course, things Luo Quan can think of, the Aiya people can definitely think of too.

And this situation is just an accidental event; it doesn't necessarily have to happen.

Besides, the Aiya people's home planet is a powerful cosmic-level civilization; they will definitely give these wanderers some backup plans, so facing their mortal enemy, the Starbuck people, they will definitely be able to come up with corresponding methods.

However, Luo Quan is not used to handing her fate to others, especially aliens whose friendship or enmity is hard to distinguish.

"So how much longer until the Starbuck fleet arrives, and how much longer until your fleet can arrive?"

Luo Quan looked at Frika, observing all her expressions sharply.

As long as this little bird person dares to tell even half a lie, the changes in her micro-expressions will be immediately detected by her.

Frika answered seriously: "The Aiya fleet is constantly performing space jumps. If we don't encounter space-time turbulence, we can arrive in at fastest five years, and at slowest ten years.

As for the Starbuck fleet, the most optimistic estimate is two hundred years later."

"And the pessimistic estimate?"

"At any time." Frika spread her hands helplessly.

"Sounds like Earth's situation is very dangerous." Luo Quan chuckled.

Frika took a deep breath and said: "The Chen tribe behind Starbuck is a very famous planetary enslaver in the entire universe. They will look for those planets that possess star souls and capture and enslave them.

Either transform them into tripod furnace planets for tribe members to practice, or transform them into planetary warships used for wars of aggression.

And Earth, in the Starbuck people's capture plan, was named Gaia. It is said that your star soul is much higher in grade than common star souls, so the Starbuck people are determined to capture Earth.

Even if they fail this time, they will call nearby Chen tribe members to launch a siege on Earth.

We Aiya people are the only civilization capable and willing to help you, so you don't need to be so repulsed. I swear in the name of the God of Aiya, we really have no malice toward Earth.

After all, there really are no resources on Earth that we can take a fancy to."

"You are quite honest." Luo Quan tilted her head and smiled, "Let's assume what you said is true for now, but I think Earth should be capable of dealing with the upcoming crisis.

If your fleet is willing to help, you can land on Mars. I am building a defense base there. When your people arrive, you can resupply there.

If you are unwilling to help, that's fine too. Just stay away from the battlefield when the time comes, so you won't be accidentally injured."

Luo Quan's answer made Frika anxious: "Earthling, do you know what the concept of a high-level civilization supported by a cosmic-level civilization is?

Their weapons will completely exceed your imagination; that is simply not a power you can resist!"

"The power I possess also exceeds your imagination." Luo Quan answered with a smile.
