Civilization is a closed system; it is extremely exclusive, and any form of cooperation carries the risk of being misinterpreted. What's more, this proxy plan clearly favors Extraterrestrial Civilization.
But those who believe this is a betrayal of Civilization have essentially overlooked a crucial point.
That is, the strength of a Civilization.
When the Federal was breached by the 2.7-level Destiny Ring Star on the front lines, it should have been clear that Human Civilization had no power to resist a 2.8-level Civilization.
Even if the opponent is an Extraterrestrial 2.8-level, it's still the same.
The so-called betrayal is only established when powers are equal.
And these Extraterrestrial Civilizations cooperating with Human Civilization have never truly focused their attention on Human Civilization.
To call it a betrayal is, in fact, still a compliment to Human Civilization.
It's merely a struggle for survival.
Such an evil act must never be carried out by the main Federal of Human Civilization.
Therefore, Yan Xia initiated the proxy plan under the name of Rasti.
"That's just an unfounded guess made due to a narrow perspective."
"Sumiya, we are now one of the top forces in Human Civilization; you should no longer confine your vision to the Star Country battlefield."
Sumiya's confusion stemmed from his sole focus on Rasti and the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance.
So he naturally assumed that Rasti's cooperation with Extraterrestrial Civilization was essentially to strike at the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance.
Bringing in external forces to attack internal kin.
What is this if not a human traitor?
Sumiya pondered.
Yan Xia did not respond to the proxy plan, but instead began large-scale loading of technology provided by Crystalline Civilization.
Speaking of technology, Crystalline Civilization itself was very sly.
Most of what they provided were finished products.
These finished products used Crystalline Civilization's own advanced technology, which was vastly different from Human Civilization's technology.
However, Yan Xia had long anticipated this.
And he found Crystalline Civilization's actions ridiculous.
They are powerful Civilizations; if they give finished products, are they still afraid that the corresponding technology cannot be researched?
There are no patent restrictions.
At most, it just wastes a little more time.
In fact, this kind of thing is even better than directly giving the technology.
Technology may have imperceptible problems; things made might work, but there could also be backdoors.
However, by studying the finished product, digesting it, and then manufacturing it oneself, one can avoid some of the possibilities of manufactured vulnerabilities.
After this technology was sent, Yan Xia sent it to the Federal.
The proxy plan itself was also sent at the same time.
This was not discussed with Ella.
Yan Xia hoped Ella could make use of this.
However, what Yan Xia did not anticipate was that the Federal front line was already very bad, and there was no need for the proxy plan at all.
In the year 237466 AD.
The Civilization Federation announced that the Lower Flank had achieved a great victory, destroying over 100 million warships of the Destiny Ring Star.
Civilization was shaken.
At the same time, Rasti Federation's warships, equipped with the latest spatial jump technology, entered the battlefield, destroying the main fleet dispatched by the Frost Blue Star Nation with extraordinary mobility.
A total of 414,000 warships and 119,000 spacecraft were destroyed.
Their own casualties were 2,117 warships.
The Star Country region was shaken.
Such a huge casualty ratio made all Star Countries question the strength of the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance for the first time.
The credibility of the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance plummeted.
In 237532 AD, the main fleet dispatched by the Frost Blue Star Nation, the Shengwei Knight Fleet, encountered the Rasti Federal Fleet in the North Cambrian Starfield, and both sides engaged in fierce combat.
After five years of war, the Rasti Federal announced victory, destroying 1.13 million warships of the Shengwei Knight Fleet.
The Frost Blue Star Nation was indeed powerful, with the number of active warships approaching ten million.
However, after two major battles, over 1.5 million warships, plus scattered small battlefields, the Frost Blue Star Nation's losses had approached 2 million warships, which can be said to be crippling.
This was not what shocked the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance the most.
In the year 237561 AD.
The Rasti Federal Meteor Fleet, with 300,000 warships, broke into the Mobenko Star Country of the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance, defeated the Mobenko Star Country's Royal Fourth Fleet, and occupied the New Thought Starfield, one-fifth of Mobenko Star Country's territory.
And Mobenko Star Country, with a total of 2.7 million warships, is one of the twenty-eight main Star Countries in the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance.
This also means that the Rasti Federal officially declared war on the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance as a whole.
The other Star Countries of the Twenty-Eight Star States Alliance successively spoke out, condemning this "sneak attack" by the Rasti Federal, and began to dispatch warships to participate in this war.
In the Star Country region, the war truly entered a full-scale phase.
More than half of the starfields became battlefields.
And the Rasti Federal also revealed its true fangs at this moment.
Massive and arrogant annexations began.
...
At the same time, Yan Xia contacted the Petrochemical Civilization ambassador stationed in Rasti.
He asked a crucial question.
A Petrochemical Civilization being, like a towering mountain, stood before him, its eyes, like inlaid crystal gems, gazed at him.
"Human, ask your question."
Like a wish-granting dragon.
Yan Xia had a list of questions, containing ten in total.
Five questions were about the Milky Way's structure, three questions were about The Universe's structure, one question was about Light Civilization, and one question was about Mirror Civilization.
Petrochemical Civilization answered them one by one.
"First question, what stage has the Dimension War entered? We are not entirely clear, but we can guess that the Dimension War is essentially still in its early stages, with Civilization just entering the white-hot war phase, and top Civilizations have not yet suffered large-scale destruction."
This was completely different from previous Human conjectures.
When that light illuminating the Milky Way appeared, Human Civilization guessed, and even Yan Xia believed Destiny Ring Star also guessed, that the Dimension War had entered its later stages.
In their perception, only in the later stages would energy dissipation occur.
At the same time, the state of the Galaxy Core also strengthened this conjecture.
However, now, Petrochemical Civilization's answer was: early stage.
But Yan Xia was not surprised at all.
Because Light Civilization's actions clearly revealed this possibility.
"Second Civilization, the number of Dimension War participants, I don't know, but according to our guess, it's at least 150 or more."
Unclear, unknown.
It seems very unreliable.
However, in fact, this is what makes it authentic.
After all, no matter how ancient Petrochemical Civilization is, it is only a sub-top Civilization, and only an Extraterrestrial Civilization.
150, giving this answer, means Petrochemical Civilization definitely knows there are 150, not that it guesses there are 150.
This was enough to shake Yan Xia's heart.
Conquering multiple dimensions, even if there were a dozen top Civilizations in the Galaxy Core, it would at most be a few dozen.
Unexpectedly, it was as many as 150.
Furthermore, from Petrochemical Civilization's own answer, this number could actually be more than just 150.
How fierce would the actual war be with such a massive number of top Civilizations?
Only at this moment did Yan Xia realize how ridiculous it was to think that the Dimension War had entered its final stage.
