Chapter 1176: Chapter 411: Sprouting Seeds

"Exploration of the New Star Zone? That is indeed a good opportunity..."

After disconnecting, Bai Yi immediately found Shangji and shared all the information obtained from the meeting.

Although Bai Yi already had his own plan, it was just a rough outline, and he needed Shangji to refine the details for execution.

"And there’s half a year, plus the time needed for the Three Great Civilizations to gradually deploy their strength once expansion begins.

This time is enough for us to make more arrangements."

"Hmm, it’s just a pity that there’s not much news now.

However, based on my understanding of the Three Great Civilizations, Your Highness has already extended an olive branch to them, and Gemini shouldn’t miss this opportunity to draw you in.

The reason the Gemini representative didn’t do so is simply because, as a conference representative, he lacked the authority.

But now that the message has reached inside the Gemini Civilization, it should be discussed soon, and they’ll get in touch, bringing us more information and resources.

Hah, in fact, even if Your Highness wasn’t the first to choose, Gemini would still offer rewards, although they wouldn’t be as generous as those for you.

After all, regardless of who it is, you’d need to give the first to choose a sweetener.

Otherwise, who would be willing to work in the future?"

Confidently reasoning, Shangji, who had been liaising with the Three Great Civilizations during this time, was familiar with them.

As if in response to her speculation, the communicator beside her flashed.

"It’s here!"

Shangji picked up the communicator and glanced at it; it was the Gemini Envoy, who was specifically in charge of interfacing with Bai Yi.

Bai Yi made a casual gesture, knowing she was only a mascot in this field and had no intention to interfere with expert Shang Ji, who promptly connected the communication.

"Hello, Miss Shangji, nice to meet again.

Hmm? Lord Fanmao is here too? My apologies, my apologies.

First, let me thank Lord Fanmao for his choice, as his early decision placed us in such a huge advantageous position, gaining support from so many high-tier strong persons.

And when it is formally made public in the foreseeable future, many other Seventh Ranks will join us because of you.

This is credited to Lord Fanmao, and Gemini will certainly not treat you poorly; we’ve prepared a token of gratitude for you, please don’t decline."

As he finished speaking, Bai Yi glanced at the list sent over and noticed many metals she needed, somewhat unexpectedly.

It seems they still discovered the dealings she had with Saien’s people to purchase metals, was it the leaked information from the Quantum Network?

Immediately, Bai Yi had her suspicions.

Of course, when trading with Saien’s merchants, she didn’t use her own network for communication, but relied on the Quantum Network as a basis, contacting through some secret lines.

Seems like those secret lines aren’t so "secret" after all...

Indeed, distrusting the Quantum Network is the right choice...

But looking at the Gemini Envoy, he has no intention of pursuing why she needs these metals.

Indeed, even if it’s clear they’re military supplies from Saien, what reason does a Geminian have to prevent it?

Maybe they’re happy to see this outcome.

Quickly considering all these thoughts, Bai Yi nodded and acknowledged the resources.

No doubt, the quantity of these resources is considerable, while not as substantial as Madison’s inheritance, it would still suffice to build a good portion of a warship.

"These resources will soon be delivered to Your Highness, our people will coordinate with Miss Shangji for the specifics.

Well, now the gratitude segment is over, let me introduce the specifics to you.

After all, during the meeting we were facing everyone, so we couldn’t disclose all information, and even though the news was leaked early, we each have our exclusive intel among the Three Great Civilizations, which only core allies can obtain."

The meaning was clear, pulling Bai Yi into their bandwagon, and strengthening ties with her through the "core ally" title.

Seeing Bai Yi neither approving nor refusing, he wasn’t disappointed.

He opened a Star Map for display, then continued:

"Based on our detection, the position of that Star Region is located at these coordinates.

Furthermore, we have detected more than one communication signal of varying levels present there, evidently possessing numerous civilizations.

Based on our deciphering, it seems there are quite a few powerhouses within.

And much of the deciphered content involves intelligence about the powerhouses there, but unfortunately, most signals are distorted beyond recognition, a limitation on our part, hence not much specific intelligence."

"According to our plan, we intend to use this coordinate as our Forward Base, for constructing a Star Gate and other facilities..."

The Gemini envoy continued detailing specific plans, but Bai Yi’s attention had already strayed; she was drawn by the coordinate shown earlier for building the base.

The coordinate, it looks somewhat familiar...

After quickly searching the network, Bai Yi immediately found the reason for the familiarity.

This - isn’t this where Madison’s legacy planets were located back then!

No wonder it seemed familiar, turns out this newly discovered Star Zone is in that direction?

Back then, because of inheriting the legacy, she also traveled to that area, and even encountered a member of the Truth Society, leaving a vague impression.
