Chapter 864: Apprehension
The atmosphere in the Command Center plunged into silence. This newly obtained information was truly too shocking.
They originally held the idea of launching a Dimensionality Reduction Strike. As a result, they didn't expect that while they, the people outside, wanted to go in, the people inside actually wanted to come out.
There was a lot of information related to Dragon Sovereign, detailed to the extreme. From the beginning of his rise to power, he was a bandit-like figure who stopped at no evil and never trusted anyone.
He also had no teammates, relatives, or Friends; he was Alone.
"What was the item he stole from the Star Glory Empire?" Ultimate Intelligence suddenly asked.
A Staff Member quickly reported: "It's not recorded in these documents. It's probably in a higher-level Database, but the network connection has already been cut off..."
"The other party has already discovered us. They should soon send people to handle it."
"Destroy the data terminals, erase anything that might leak information, and let all shipborne Members self-annihilate." Drogheda's voice was extremely cold, making the surrounding Staff Members unable to resist shuddering.
However, these shipborne personnel understood what kind of fate they would face from the very beginning.
Therefore, they didn't have any psychological resistance towards this order.
The picture gradually turned pitch-black as all the exploration Spaceships disconnected their signals.
The Command Center regained its calm once again. The five rulers had different expressions. This newly obtained information and intelligence had truly taken them completely by surprise.
"I don't think there's a need to change the exploration plan. They are just a single civilization, it's impossible for them to contend against us."
Drogheda's attitude was the toughest. He believed there was no need to hesitate or delay, and they could just continue proceeding according to the established plan.
"So, the Iron-Blood Civilization is prepared to Lead the Charge then?" The High Priest of the Star Spirits asked in return.
Drogheda's expression remained unchanged as he said: "Since we are all part of the Great Universe Alliance, of course we will jointly dispatch troops and jointly resist."
"In that case, who will be the commander-in-chief during the war?" The High Priest of the Star Spirits asked again.
They couldn't possibly have five commanders-in-chief during a war, or fight their own separate battles.
Then what would be the point of jointly dispatching troops?
But once a commander-in-chief was determined, that joint commander would inevitably lean towards their own civilization, prioritizing sending people from other civilizations to die.
This was foreseeable.
They couldn't possibly find a neutral guy to be the commander-in-chief.
"Just what do you mean by that?" Drogheda was displeased and said coldly.
"I don't mean anything. First of all, you have to figure out why we are exploring this region." The High Priest of the Star Spirits emphasized: "Our goal is that Dragon Sovereign."
"But it's clearly written in this information and data that the other party has always been alone. Wanting to find people or objects carrying his Information State is almost impossible."
"So we're going to inexplicably start a massive war for this illusory matter?"
Drogheda's complexion was very unsightly. What the High Priest of the Star Spirits said was indeed the truth.
Not finding the Holy Spear of Alnania and instead provoking another enemy would probably cause the Citizens within his borders to scold him to death.
"Does this Star Glory Empire know information about us Outside Civilizations?" The Prophet suddenly asked.
The Staff Members crackled on their keyboards for a while and reported: "They seem to know..."
"There is a piece of data here indicating that they once explored a civilization calling itself 'Hope'."
"We have found the corresponding civilization. Their Strength level is quite high, so they should understand the galactic situation extremely well."
"However, according to the timestamp on this data, this is information they obtained three hundred years ago."
The Prophet nodded and said: "This also means that although they know of our existence, they shouldn't know that we have already formed an alliance."
"That's why they would try their best to break outwards. Facing a Civilization Alliance versus facing an unstable and turbulent Universe, the level of threat is completely different."
The five rulers each had their own considerations in their hearts when facing such a civilization that suddenly popped up.
They did indeed have thoughts of taking action.
But just as the High Priest of the Star Spirits had just said, they had only just united. This was the first joint operation they had carried out after uniting, and as a result, it suffered a setback.
A foundation of trust was Out of the question. No one dared to start a war against the civilization in these Ruins.
The High Priest of the Star Spirits was Completely Perplexed: "I'm still very curious. How exactly did they develop? How could they catch up to our footsteps, or even surpass us, in such a short amount of time..."
