Chapter 477: Chapter 279: Attention Drawn from 3 Parties
"That’s right, it’s a third party." Shen Shi reaffirmed, "You should know Gus Land, right? The third-party forces appearing on this battlefield are only stronger than Gus Land."
Speaking of this, Shen Shi couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional.
Once upon a time, Gus Land seemed to him to be a truly massive entity, and being able to exist independently from Gus Land was almost the goal that human civilization sought.
But now, human civilization is indeed no weaker than Gus Land.
In this interstellar space, some opportunities cannot be considered with normal logic. While Gus Land accumulated great strength over tens of thousands of years or even longer, human civilization relied on plunder and the Holy Land. The strength Shen Shi plundered in various star systems, combined with the knowledge wealth and some A-level devices obtained from the Starlight Civilization in the second future line, allowed human civilization’s strength to exceed B9 Level by quite a margin.
If it were just like this, it would still be unable to compare with Gus Land, which is close to an A-level civilization in the Mude System. But if you add the Holy Land, then it is completely different.
Nowadays, human civilization truly has the qualifications to wield part of the Holy Land’s power.
For instance, at this moment, it may seem like only Shen Shi is here, but if he is willing, he can bring the entire military might of human civilization in a very short time.
And also leave in a very short time.
A true coming and going without leaving a trace.
If human civilization were to truly clash with Gus Land now, ironically, the victory would likely lean more towards the human side because, in most situations, Gus Land can only be a live target.
Of course, Shen Shi’s "pressed the honest button" revelation made the shock in the other’s heart surge several times higher.
Gus Land, Gao Ting naturally knew.
After all, the Three-Day Civilization also has a base in Gus Land, and over tens of thousands of years, it has gained immense profits through trading with other civilizations on this platform, which has promoted the development of the entire civilization. The Three-Day Civilization, being a cultural mental collective without much personal desire, is somewhat better, but to individual civilizations like the Es Civilization, Gus Land is even a famous tourist destination and commercial hub, known to everyone.
With its strength, it is certainly powerless to participate in the war between the Mude System and the Thousand Alliance, but just participating in the war of this star system is enough to change the current situation.
This is a truly powerful third-party force that cannot be ignored!
"Is there more information?" Gao Ting asked, "Please rest assured, just the point of intelligence you mentioned, we’re willing to give you an absolutely reasonable price. But if you have more information, the value of this intelligence will multiply."
Collection of information is always more important than fragmented intelligence.
"Of course, I have more here." Shen Shi nodded, "However, I’m not looking for ordinary compensation. You know about the Star System Transition Device of Gus Land, right? I need that."
Gao Ting’s emotions fluctuated again.
He certainly knew.
It is a true A-level device, and even among the A-levels, it is not considered weak.
This is equally a powerful proof that Gus Land has reached the level of the Starlight and other civilizations in some technological fields.
Of course, the Starlight Civilization is still much stronger than Gus Land, so they can also offer such devices. However, with Shen Shi stating this condition, it was already obvious that this was likely beyond what Gao Ting could negotiate.
"I will quickly relay this transaction and your request upwards." Gao Ting, realizing this, instead let out a breath of relief.
As a Three-Day Person who betrayed his own civilization, he is valued by other civilizations and has gained the life he desires but, ultimately, his foundation is too shallow.
For such matters, he prefers not to get involved if possible.
And Shen Shi did not wait long.
Just as he said at the start, the so-called black market is actually as official as it gets, with the entire front-line military base completely under official control. Before long, a new person appeared before Shen Shi.
With a human appearance, female, and so beautiful she seemed almost not of this world.
This was not merely referring to her appearance, but more to her strength.
After all, in the interstellar era, appearances were no longer considered unattractive, and people’s aesthetics continuously evolved. But one thing that could be compared was the aura brought by Primordial Energy Mastery, the ultimate in the field of art. Ai Xin’Er was also a strong person in this way, but the person before him surpassed Ai Xin’Er in this domain, and her charm was almost enough to cover the majority of civilization races in the stars.
It was apparent this was a Starlight Person.
Her strength was slightly lower than that of the Empress but not by much.
"I’ve seen your emphasis." Shen Shi stared at the other, with not a trace of change in his outward expressions, "Since that’s the case, I want to raise the price, not just the things I want but also some additional devices."
"..." The other watched Shen Shi, remaining silent for a long time.
