Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 1328 - 1294: The Rhythm of "Sagali
If it wasn't for the need for local resources from the South Continent of American sovereignty, Chen Fei wouldn't care about those who refuse to cooperate with the evacuation, like those large landlords with private lands, drug farmers growing marijuana leaves, illegal forces selling marijuana leaves, and armed smugglers. Since they refuse to leave, they might as well stay and wait for death and see if the parasitic species will be polite to these self-served meals.
But even Miyoshi Xuesen, who is ruthless and cunning, doesn't suggest that Chen Fei treat human lives so carelessly.
The disparity between rich and poor in the South Continent of America is extreme, the poor die in poverty, the rich die in wealth. The wealthy are the main taxpayers, and those people and forces capable of resisting Combat Mechs have some assets. The local sovereign authorities still count on them to pay more taxes to subsidize the government expenses, and they can't be casually abandoned.
If it weren't for such hard times, even the small sovereignties wouldn't have just this little confidence.
So, Chen Fei is now stuck, forced to maintain this extremely inefficient evacuation work, losing over a hundred Combat Mechs every day, which is an inexplicable waste.
Hence, when facing attacks or resistance, the Combat Mech Army will immediately eradicate them without hesitation.
Since they don't appreciate kindness, refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, they can't blame Chen Fei for being ruthless. This behavior is indeed in line with a "tyrant". If they are not convinced, they are welcome to find someone else to assist with the evacuation and see how many lives they can endure losing.
The sky above the fourth "Abnormal Region" suddenly brightened up; thick clouds were easily penetrated by a blazing high-density energy beam, diving straight into the "Abnormal Region" with a diameter of 400 kilometers.
Even though the edge of the "Abnormal Region" can distort light, it cannot neutralize the destructive energy gathered by the Constant Star Light. Even though the Tyndall effect produces dazzling scattered light shining in all directions, and the subsequent high temperature sufficient to melt steel and rock, everything ignites. Regardless of whether it can burn, everything bursts into flames.
The numerous monsters and "Pod Flying Ships" within the "Abnormal Region", including the "Flying Ship Black Vine" that takes root and competes with local Blue Star plants for nutrients, were all turned into ashes. The number of monsters and "Pod Flying Ships" able to escape the "Abnormal Region" rapidly decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The data graph curve instantly calculated by the Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam" continued to decline, allowing everyone on the "No.2 Command Ship" bridge to breathe a sigh of relief. This information was also shared simultaneously with the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee and various sovereignties.
At the same time, the battle situations in the other three Abnormal Regions and outer-atmosphere space rifts were also synchronized to Chen Fei, integrating global battle information for better overall control.
"It seems the situation isn't too bad! The parasitic species haven't taken the opportunity to attack the No.1 and No.2 Star Systems."
Lord Landon also paid attention to the two Star Systems controlled by Chen Fei. After eliminating all the Biological Space Mother Ships, there were no significant opposing forces in the entire Star System. Although some remnants of monsters and Mutants released by the Blue Star Civilization remained on "Emerald Star" in the No.1 Star System, annihilating these insignificant troubles was just a matter of a thought for Chen Fei.
"Matter of a thought" here is not an idiom but a verb, meaning a real instant resolution.
"No! The 'Sagali' civilization's strategic focus has always been Blue Star. The battle here is just beginning."
Chen Fei also paid attention to the situation in the No.1 and No.2 Star Systems, with no activity observed.
As long as the 'Sagali' civilization can conquer Blue Star, reclaiming the No.1 and No.2 Star Systems is just a matter of time, although that might not happen for three to five hundred years, and he can't worry about that now.
Three or five hundred years later, it's likely even Chen Xiao'er's grave would be untraceable.
"Is 'Sagali' still eyeing here?"
Louis Landon asked suspiciously and then realized, "Ah! They are aiming for the human soul!"
Blue Star, which has abundant human soul energy, is evidently more valuable than the two Star Systems where no soul energy can be found.
Chen Fei snapped his fingers and said, "Exactly! The Slan Dynasty has confirmed the existence of human souls. Our value perspective is entirely different from the 'Sagali', so we can't use our understanding to judge the behavior patterns of these parasitic species. However, it seems that the 'Sagali' civilization's pace of attack is a bit fast, have the strategic teams considered the reasons?"
Right from the start, the 'Sagali' civilization has been testing the Blue Star Civilization, and the intensity is constantly increasing.
S-Class Superpower User Yan Ling sealed the "Wormhole Cloud" and restricted 'Sagali's entry of supernatural power users above Divine Breed into the Solar System at the cost of her own lifespan, indeed calming these parasitic species for a while, but now that they are making a comeback, Chen Fei began to reconsider some of his judgments about the 'Sagali' civilization.
The 'Sagali' civilization's individuals have lifespans far exceeding humans. Even the most basic Troop Breeds live longer than humans. Coupled with soul energy supplements, they can live even longer.
Human beings, with a lifespan of less than a hundred years, in the struggle between the two civilizations, even without intense battles, the 'Sagali', relying on protraction, can live human civilization to death. What does it matter if there are generations of heroes? Human heroes age too. After several generations of peace, it's likely they won't even know how to fight a war, just like now. The military equipment and technology of the Blue Star Civilization far exceed what it was forty years ago, but the soldiers' quality and morale are less than during the struggle against the Third Era Civilization's Neanderthal descendants.
"Fast pace? Doesn't seem particularly special!"
Lord Landon fell into deep thought. He was not a professional military personnel, nor was he in his past life, so it was hard for him to keep up with Chen Fei's thinking.
Regarding Chen Fei's question, the strategic team has indeed considered it earnestly. As a representative, a team member said, "There might be three reasons for the rushed attack!"
"Please, go ahead!"
Chen Fei made a gesture of listening intently. Despite having some judgments, he wanted to hear other possibly different views at this moment.
It is said one person's analysis might be short, but many can find solutions, like the saying "three humble advisors top a Zhuge Liang," representing the strategic team's role and responsibility.
"First, from the 'Sagali' civilization's perspective, Blue Star might be nothing but a trivial target, easily captured. So, it makes no difference whether it's taken sooner or later. What we perceive as a pace might just depend on their whim."
This reasoning assumes the 'Sagali' civilization's power is incredibly vast, even beyond the imagination of Blue Star human civilization, like humans poking a small anthill. Who the hell cares about pace? Poke if you want, and if you don't, then poke again later. Once decided to poke, it is absolutely wiped clean.
"Second, there may be other predators similar to the 'Sagali' civilization that have also set sights on Blue Star. The 'Sagali' civilization decided to strike first, or it might be internal factional struggles, but competitors have definitely appeared."
In the vast cosmic void, the Great Thousand Worlds, the existence of one 'Sagali' implies there could be another predator civilization. It's not surprising, only the difference between zero and countless. However, it makes Blue Star Civilization's situation worse. If two tigers fight for a rabbit, what can the rabbit do? Just meekly accept death!
Since soul energy of wisdom races can effectively extend the life of beings, and possibly has other special effects, it wouldn't be surprising if it becomes a significant resource. If Blue Star Civilization could make full use of this soul energy, they might be fiercer than the 'Sagali' civilization.
"Third, a shortage of soul energy within the 'Sagali' civilization, necessitating urgent replenishment, prompting an urgent harvest."
Compared to the previous two judgments, the third possibility might actually be more favorable to Blue Star Civilization. 'Sagali' isn't eternal and immortal; lacking soul energy supplements their potential will visibly shrink, indicating that Blue Star Civilization might have a chance to outlast them by enduring through three to five generations or even a dozen generations.
