Chapter 411: Gambling and fighting deterrence and... communication!


    Lu Yuan repeatedly instructed in his headphones: "Don''t think we are very strong. The purpose of gambling is not to win this little money, but to observe the opponent and evaluate the risks."


    "Arrogance is the biggest enemy. If we lose, we have to pay well and not be able to pay."


    "I understand!" People roared in a low voice.


    And humans... how to say it, in terms of ideology, they are not as cruel as to exterminate civilizations and plunder spiritual charm.


    If it is a just war, facing a life-and-death enemy, human warriors will destroy the other party without any psychological burden...


    But if it is a rookie civilization that knows nothing, everyone is still getting along with each other in a friendly manner the previous second, and then they will change their faces and kill them all in the next second... Inside humans, it is actually difficult to convince the people to launch such a war of plunder.


    This is not the Virgin. "Justice" and "Injustice" are very important for internal development.


    The righteous teacher is always full of fighting spirit. Even if the equipment is a little worse and the conditions are more difficult, it has spiritual support.


    And the "unjust teacher" has become a group of bandits.


    In addition, most of the children have been taught by Lu Yuan and Conch since childhood. Lu Yuan claimed that his views were very positive. Although he was a little greedy, he was all obtained through his ability and had nothing to do with human development.


    As for the other moral qualities, he, Lao Lu, works hard, loves to study, and does not open a harem. What a great person!


    Conch is even more of a sweet girl with a gentle and playful look. Children raised by such mothers will basically not lack love.


    Therefore, children also use this morality to show themselves, which creates a vibrant green city.


    Suddenly, their hands were covered with blood. For human civilization, it was purely to pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons.


    So, as long as the other party does not provoke humans, or is not that kind of extremely evil civilization, humans do not intend to launch active war.


    The human translation expert took a deep breath: "The specific rules of [gambling] are as follows: fight one-on-one cold weapons, wear the best armor and weapons, and evaluate the comprehensive strength of civilization development."


    "In addition, you can also bet on other projects, forging strange objects or carving literature..."


    "The amount of betting is: 100 Lingyun!"


    "The basket of ''Silvatan bacteria'' in my hand is 10.2 kilograms in total, worth 1.12 spiritual rhymes... I believe that 100 spiritual rhymes are the number that both parties can bear."


    The sound was heard from afar, not only to the diplomats of the Underground Alliance, but also to the inside of the Shitong Fortress through surveillance devices, and even to the "Cavetian".


    …


    The underground alliance team, who was already a little confused, suddenly felt a "knock" in his heart after hearing this voice transmission!


    "What does it mean, betting?"


    Oshima Steel instantly analyzed that the other party was a civilization that had experienced a lot... Maybe he had investigated many dangerous places, and the richness of this experience was much more than the Underground Alliance.


    “100 spiritual rhymes?”


    "What''s Lingyun?"


    They have never heard of the epoch rules of Pangu Continent.


    Is this unspoken rule true or false? Is the other party good intention or malicious? How much stronger is the other party than us? Is there any benefit to destroying us? Otherwise, why would there be this unspoken rule?


    Does the other party think we are sure to be able to take it?


    Countless questions circling in my mind, unable to get explanation.


    He looked at the human team again, and there were mecha puppets, and there seemed to be a flash of light and dark fire in the black gun barrels.


    “Identification!”


    The identification failed, which is normal.


    Their underground alliance has long explored a plan to ineffective the "identification" capability.


    But the other party also has the same grasp...


    "There is a high probability, not pretending!" In an instant, cold sweat emerged from the back.


    "What should I do, General? The other party suddenly wants to fight... a bet?"


    "How do you reply from behind?"


    "I guess I''m still confused."


    Tension and anxiety spread throughout the team and have not dissipated for a long time.


    Fortunately, Dashima Steel is a general with real talent in the dark steel civilization. He has experienced many Zerg wars and was killed from the sea of ??corpses and fire.


    He has also dealt with many civilized relationships that make people feel irritating. Although he doesn’t know how bad the outside environment is, he knows that he should be calm at this moment and show the strong side of the underground alliance - we are not nothing, we also have extraordinary backgrounds!


    Otherwise, the alliance will be in danger!


    He took a deep breath and asked a translator from the Lizard tribe to pass on the message: "We are an underground alliance, a powerful alliance composed of 12 civilizations. Friends are welcome to come from afar!"


    "We... accept the bet!"


    "This is not a place for conversation. Please invite all guests to follow us to the fortress!"


    …


    The other party accepted it, and from the perspective of emotions, he was more nervous.


    Lu Yuan was silent for a while: "Let''s go, follow him."


    "Everyone should observe carefully and do not relax. Even if we are not prepared to start a war, we should gain a negotiating advantage."


    In this way, 30 humans followed the underground alliance to the huge "Shitong Fortress". This big bluestone tunnel is narrow and cramped, and there is a stinking smell, even the people from the underground alliance are also stinking.


    Maybe it is used to drive away the Zerg?


    Even though all humans wore gas masks, they were still so smelly that they were almost fainted. Fortunately, these gases are not toxic, so they barely persist in blocking their sense of smell with extraordinary fire.


    Only by following the narrow tunnel and deep into this fortress can you feel its majesty and size.


    The "Underground Alliance" actually hollowed out a hill and transformed it into an internal fortress.


    Countless gears are rotating and crawlers are transporting, and workers are digging and strengthening the interior of the fortress.


    The black gun barrel aimed intentionally or unintentionally at the people in the corridor, which was a deterrent.


    Soldiers of twelve races stood near the cannon with live ammunition, with a serious look on their solemn faces.


    Lu Yuan knew that this was the underground alliance showing its combat effectiveness, which was normal. Even if there is no such thing as gambling, the other party may use force to deter it?


    I have to admit that this alliance seems to be a bit advanced, and they are all wearing clothes that resist "identification ability".


    And the scale of this battle fortress is comparable to that of the Green Mountains.


    "All mankind has to work hard for decades before it can complete this big project..."


    What made him more familiar with was that the rotational gears were linked to each other, as if they formed an organic whole...


    This scene seems familiar. Lu Yuan recalled it for a long time, as if he had seen it in the White Jade Hall under the magma in the "World Melting Boiler" volcano.


    But the current gears seem to be just a copy. Compared with the White Jade Hall that can operate in magma, it is simply the difference between "apprentice paintings" and "Van Gogh''s paintings".


    While walking in the corridor, several human negotiation experts were talking to Oshima Steel, intentionally.


    Humans don’t mind leaking some simple information, and are also testing the other party... After all, if some things are not leaked, there is no way to communicate.


    "Commander Lu, this alliance seems to be a novice civilization. They don''t know any information, they just pretend to know... Well, they can''t even figure out what Lingyun is... they are really novice."


    "It''s a bit similar to when we met Momiba, and it was exposed all of a sudden."


    There is no way, no matter how high your wisdom is or how careful you are, you will be powerless when you encounter poor information.


    "Don''t let go of your guard." Lu Yuan said, "Just communicate normally..."


    …


    …


    At the front is the hall of the fortress. There is a playground that is so big, the floor is built of special alloys and is very hard.


    The ceiling is bright and there are a small number of green plants planted around it... Humans have investigated that a large part of the food sources of this large crack are geothermal energy and chemical energy, and a part of them is photosynthesis. As long as there is a faint light, plants can grow lushly.


    "Dear friends, if you don''t bother, please take a shower and change your clothes in the room on the right." Oshima Steel made a unique etiquette in this article: put your hands on the back of your head, close the cross, and then bow slightly.


    There is no way, that tunnel is too smelly.


    Whether it is a diplomatic investigation or a gambling battle, it is not something that can be accomplished in a short while. If we communicate with each other with a stinking smell, everyone will probably spit out the overnight meal...


    Their underground alliance cannot afford to lose that face!


    Of course, this is actually necessary for humans.


    Face is equivalent to inner self.


    Once you lose face, you will lose your inner self.


    However, they dare not use things from the Underground Alliance indiscriminately.


    Fortunately, several functional source fire mechas have been installed in bathrooms and drying rooms, and Lu Yuan’s storage space carries a large amount of food and dozens of tons of water.


    It’s okay if you take turns cleaning your body.


    …


    Several human negotiation experts were the first to cleanse their bodies.


    They carefully sat at a round table with the negotiators of the Underground Alliance, discussing and mediating...


    Information naturally needs to be exchanged with information.


    "I have a alliance of 12 races, living in a ''cave sky''. The fortress we are currently in is just an outpost." Oshima Steel revealed a little information.


    "Our alliance has rich experience in confrontation. It has been undergoing decades of cultivation and rest, and is fully capable of protecting itself in the Zerg riots."


    The subtext of these sentences, even if you annihilate our fortress, it doesn’t make any sense...


    In addition, the existence of "Chongtian" is also considered a confidential information.


    Of course, I refused to say what "Congtian" is.


    But when humans hear it, they have another scene, cave heaven?


    Is it a large space? Or something else? Or is it a strange phenomenon? Did they catch a vision?
