Chapter 475: Chapter 278: Sell Yourself at a Price
Although the Mude System is at a disadvantage here, it still occupies a significant area, otherwise, it would not be able to resist continuously.
At least a third of this star system is within the monitoring range of the Mude System.
But it’s not a clear boundary; instead, it’s a mingling of territories.
Although Human Civilization has developed to a very powerful degree, to be honest, this level of warfare is still grand and unfamiliar to Human Civilization, including Shen Shi. Most commanders of Human Civilization struggle to expand their perspective to encompass the entire battlefield.
Even just looking at the Star Map is extremely complex.
At this moment, they are heading to a Mude Base located deep within the territory of the Thousand Alliance System.
Though called a base, it is actually an area covering over seven thousand stars, with the greatest distance spanning several hundred light-years. The Mude System has already fully mastered all nodes in this area, and any warship attempting to warp in without permission will immediately face devastating concentrated fire.
Even Shen Shi does not dare to rush over carelessly, nor is it appropriate to stealthily approach.
There must be A-level Civilization Devices supporting that place.
As for using Time Abilities... Time Abilities are ultimately too limited, and cannot be revealed. They can only be used appropriately when ensuring they won’t be detected by the enemy, as they were before. If it is discovered that he can control time, then there will be no chance to take advantage of the situation. It’s likely that the Thousand Alliance and Mude would cease hostilities and join forces against him.
"We will navigate using Curvature Navigation to get there. Once we arrive, I will infiltrate alone, investigate the situation, and find opportunities," Shen Shi ultimately chose the most prudent plan.
Admittedly, it has been a very, very long time since he acted alone. After all, this is not the honor of a leader of civilization but rather a disgrace. However, given the current situation, his personal strength is indeed one of Humanity’s greatest trump cards.
What follows is a journey lasting more than a century.
Shen Shi is still somewhat unaccustomed to such lengthy travel times, but once humans equipped with personal terminals start dispersing to various places, this period can be bypassed. Given the size of this star system, it would take at least several hundred or even a thousand years.
However, he made full use of this time.
On one hand, spreading traces of Humanity outward, and on the other hand, gaining a more detailed understanding of the battlefield. He even casually wiped out a Mude fleet that had just defeated the Thousand Alliance, obtaining considerable battlefield intelligence about the Mude System.
Finally, they reached their destination.
A star system known as the Teo Fei.
This is the frontline base of the Mude System Base.
"A Single Star System, with eighteen large planets in total, three of which have been transformed into life planets, while the rest have all been converted into war planet fortresses. There are hundreds of warship production factories alone, sending numerous warships to the battlefield continuously..." Shen Shi, at this moment, drifted alone in the cosmos, gazing at the dazzling yellow star in front of him, as intelligence related to this star system kept emerging in his mind.
According to the information, as one of the most important frontline bases, personnel dispatched by an A-level Civilization, namely the Starlight, manage here, while the remaining eighteen B-level Civilizations each dispatch factories, troops, and warriors, making it appear somewhat like Blue Star in the second future line.
Except there are no oppressed and pitiable humans.
All civilizations are in equal and harmonious positions.
Shen Shi chose a life planet named "Hardy" and without much effort, easily integrated himself into it.
This is also why he had to come alone.
As long as he is willing, he believes that even with an A-level Civilization, he can blend in relatively easily. After all, for someone who controls time, no matter how tight the defense lines are, it will be difficult to detect his presence.
"It’s almost unlike a frontline battlefield." Shen Shi walked in the city of Hardy, observing his surroundings.
This is a very well-constructed city, with white buildings and green landscaping interwoven in a manner that is pleasing to the eye. The building density is not too high; although there are numerous buildings spread across the entire space, they can still maintain the most original sunlight shining on most corners. Even the various intelligent lifeforms coming and going show no signs of war-induced anxiety, with emotions mainly cheerful, spirits uplifted. Many intelligent lifeforms are leisurely enjoying the sunlight.
"I see, there are also many newborns..." Shen Shi vaguely seemed to realize something.
Quite a few inhabitants in this urban life were recently born, indicating that the Mude System is not only dispatching warriors from the rear but is also directly promoting the reproduction and birth of a new generation of intelligent life on the frontline.
To effectively promote it, they must ensure certain living conditions.
It has to be said, it’s no wonder the war has lasted for thousands and could very well last for tens of thousands of years.
In that case, things have become much easier.
"There should be an underground trading site here." Shen Shi, without wasting much effort, gathered information from some people’s minds, soon arriving at a grand and bright building.
