Trading Cosmic Battleship From The Start-Chapter 524 - 302: Betrayal Is Inevitable_2

This shows the importance of intelligence within the interstellar realm.

The human civilization that has demonstrated strong intelligence capabilities has actually shown equally strong power.

Silla probably could never imagine that a civilization could directly obtain intelligence information from the future.

He asked again at this moment, "If this is indeed the case, sending the Lord this time would be a real trap. What does the Lord intend to do?"

Silla did not say things like, "It’s a trap, the Lord should not go."

If it’s about traps, the previous ones were equally strong.

There’s no reason the current trap would be stronger.

Of course, this decision must be made personally by Shen Shi.

And Shen Shi, naturally, had already thought of a way to cope.

"Their actions certainly prevent Lilianya from aligning with us, but they also distance Lilianya from themselves somewhat. Therefore, I will go," Shen Shi said softly. "The benefits of going far outweigh those negligible risks."

In future history, Shen Shi had already known what would happen this time.

But he had no worry whatsoever.

We must recognize that with the Time Crystal, he is on a completely different level in terms of combat strength compared to his incarnation without it.

The few civilizations do not intend to besiege him through this "trap".

If the Pasture Master could be besieged so easily, the war with the Mude System wouldn’t have been so challenging.

They simply want to gather more information.

In that case, let them gather it.

Currently, the Human Interstellar Empire has certain fictitious and fabricated strengths in many areas, but there is one point that is absolutely real.

And that is Shen Shi’s personal strength!

The Primordial Energy, comprehensively fortified by the Bronze Altar, combined with the already formed Fantasy Legion, and even some of the Primordial Energy Spore Weapons tested during this period and gathered at Shen Shi through the Holy Land, have long enhanced Shen Shi’s strength to a level he himself finds difficult to predict.

In an interstellar world where personal strength is often insignificant, such a stage is rare for him to perform fully, so how could he not cherish it?

Thus, Shen Shi set out.

As before, one person, one warship, directly traveling toward the Mother Star location of Lilianya.

The entire process didn’t take much time. In reality, for an A-level civilization, seldom are there places within star systems that cannot be reached in a single warp. Occasionally, such points do not demand long travel times, with real challenges lying between star systems. Different star systems in this vast cosmos are akin to isolated islands, occupying over 99% of the cosmos’s space in isolation.

And this time, there were no traps along the way. Even as he approached, Shen Shi received the highest level of hospitality from Lilianya Civilization!

It was genuinely the highest level!

Countless warships neatly lined up to pave the way for him, countless asteroids forcibly swept aside, and even stars were ruthlessly demolished, creating a fireworks display akin to a supernova explosion—forming a direct path without any detours.

This, in the culture of Lilianya’s Mother Star, only a truly supreme strong person, one who overlooks the Star Sea, qualifies for such absolute hospitality.

Obviously, while the actions of the other civilizations made Lilianya unable to directly align, they were not without dissatisfaction, and such actions serve, on one hand, to appease citizens heavily affected by cultural shocks, and on the other, to express dissatisfaction toward the other civilizations.

In Shen Shi’s view, Lilianya’s alignment was already destined.

He planned to take this opportunity to thoroughly explore this civilization with a unique culture.

And as the Iwen traveled smoothly to Lilianya’s Mother Star, Shen Shi encountered a peculiar life planet that was half desert, half forest, yet uniquely devoid of oceans.

The kind of plants, possessing a certain hallucinogenic effect, still covered the entire planet. However, for the current Lilianya People, they no longer had much impact, so not many people actually lived here, existing more as a faith, a Holy Land.

Yet at this moment, it was crowded with people.

Shen Shi could clearly see numerous Lilianya People spread across the whole cosmos.

Some were aboard spacecraft, but more stood directly in the cosmos.

They might have undergone obvious alien modifications or retained their original green skin, but all possessed formidable strength, many wantonly emanating their Primordial Energy Consciousness, converging on the bodies of the Primordial Master, allowing primitive, wild Primordial Energy to fill the entire cosmos, enveloping the entire space.

Shen Shi could feel their excitement and anticipation.

Clearly, this too is part of the "ceremony."

Probably in the entire history of Lilianya, such a level of ceremony is also a first.

However, Shen Shi keenly sensed that among them were quite a number of strong persons clearly not belonging to Lilianya People, including devices; these strong persons mostly had emotions of tension and unease, not only fueled by their large numbers but also holding crucial positions.

Apparently, these were the constraints on Lilianya Civilization by the other civilizations.

Based on their behavior and arrangement, it was clear they were wary of Lilianya Civilization suddenly erupting, attacking them, and then aligning in betrayal.

"How interesting," Shen Shi smirked.

He has traversed interstellar space for almost seven thousand years now, encountered countless civilizations, and personally visited many places, and as such, nothing can easily move him, but this scene, even with his experience, remains a first.

And at this moment, a Lilianya Person accompanied by a few strong persons clearly altered by other civilizations, approached Shen Shi’s spaceship slowly.

The speed was slow, and they constantly emanated non-hostile emotional consciousness.

The leading Lilianya Person was filled with anticipation.

Shen Shi had already recognized his identity.

This was the king of Lilianya People.

In Lilianya Civilization, the king is the strongest person among them. Every so often, new strong persons come to challenge, and if they succeed, they can become the new king.

And as they approached.

A massive figure larger than the planet suddenly appeared above the Iwen.

Wearing golden armor, donning a golden crown, wielding the Golden Cudgel, any Blue Star People here could instantly shout out this figure’s name.

The Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong!

Yes, just like the previously apparated Immortal-slaying Gourd, this too was a member of Shen Shi’s Fantasy Legion, and even existed in Shen Shi’s Consciousness World, materialized, and endowed with vibrant will—the Great Sage Equal to Heaven!

Only in an instant of appearance, that battlefield-defying demeanor flooded the entire space.

Also surged through every wisdom lifeform on site.

It wasn’t aggressive yet wielded immense influence.

All Lilianya People went mad in that instant.

Yes, they didn’t know who this figure was or what he represented, but they could tell it was the Fantasy Legion. They could feel the strength, further sense the towering, earth-shattering violence, and connect with a deep cultural recognition from the most primitive emotions, this was what they wanted, what they desired, and what they worshipped.

Even the arrangements put forth by other civilizations here couldn’t have predicted Shen Shi would suddenly pull such a maneuver.

And feeling the frenzy of Lilianya People surrounding them, even the dullest among them could roughly react now. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Lilianya Civilization’s betrayal was already inevitable!

The stronger the civilization, the more important culture becomes, as it’s an essential hub for a vast interstellar civilization to operate as a cohesive entity!
