Chapter 1928: r Conditions
How about we send you a near-T7 Gold Saint Angel-class light interstellar cruiser?
Holy crap.
Upon hearing this, the Azure Venerable wondered if he had misheard.
He noticed that the other venerable ones beside him all had surprised expressions.
He knew he hadn't misheard.
The Emperor Xiaolong in front of him was really going to give him a near-T7 Gold Saint Angel-class light interstellar cruiser.
Holy crap.
What is this guy trying to do?
Although the Azure Venerable was overjoyed and desperately wanted it.
However, he also knew.
The saying goes, "Those who offer unsolicited favors are either treacherous or thieves."
Such a good thing is not so easy to take.
It might get very hot to the touch.
"Cough cough cough cough."
This gift is too expensive.
"No, no, not suitable." The Azure Venerable suppressed the bleeding in his heart and uttered words of refusal.
Zhao Chen did not continue speaking to the Azure Venerable.
Instead, he walked up to the last Radiant Venerable.
He naturally knew that within the Venerable Civilization Alliance, the Shining Venerable held the highest status.
But when facing this radiant Venerable One...
Zhao Chen only said a few words.
"Nice to meet you."
"Um."
The two shook hands, which was a simple greeting.
Next, following the normal procedure, we would naturally invite Emperor Xiaolong to a welcome dinner.
However, the guest before them was none other than Emperor Xiaolong, a man of special status.
Therefore, this process may not necessarily be able to be implemented.
However, Venerable Shining still made this suggestion in accordance with the procedure.
"Okay, no problem."
My biggest hobby is eating.
"I'm really looking forward to tasting the delicious food from your world," Emperor Zhao Chen said with a smile.
This sudden agreement.
This was something none of the Venerable Ones had anticipated.
I don't know whether to say this Emperor of the Dragons is incredibly bold, or that he's just extremely confident.
Surprisingly, they agreed to all their requests.
That's incredible.
But since they've already agreed, we need to make thorough arrangements.
They also have their own etiquette.
Regardless of the previous relationship, since they came, I was willing to accept their invitation to the banquet.
All the etiquette needs to be arranged properly.
The group traveled together in a hovercraft.
Even his bodyguards were left to the vehicles used for transportation.
Even someone like Emperor Xiaolong is so open and honest.
The four venerable ones naturally accompanied them personally.
The hovercraft, which could originally seat more than a dozen people, now looks much emptier.
Five people sat in luxurious chairs, with robots providing them with various services.
“Radiant Venerable One, a banquet has been prepared for you in the most honorable and best place.”
"You'll definitely like it." Azure Venerable was incredibly enthusiastic towards the Dragon Emperor at this moment.
They kept saying they'd give him a near-T7 Gold Saint Angel-class light star cruiser.
Now, looking at the Emperor Xiaolong before him, he found him pleasing to the eye no matter how he looked at him.
So handsome.
This is the bearing of an emperor.
This skin looks like the hull armor of a Gold Saint Angel-class light interstellar cruiser.
Those eyes look like the cannons of a Gold Saint Angel-class light interstellar cruiser.
Those muscular chest muscles look just like the frontal armor of a Gold Saint Angel-class light interstellar cruiser!
Emperor Xiaolong was momentarily overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of this Azure Venerable.
It was Venerable Puyu who came to the rescue.
From here, to the banquet hall.
There are about fifteen minutes.
Actually, I'm quite curious.
Why has Your Majesty Emperor Xiaolong suddenly visited our Venerable Civilization Alliance at this time?
As far as I know.
You are now facing the second wave of attacks from the Conqueror civilization within the Dragon Cluster.
There are 300 million elite fleets of the Conqueror civilization, and 500 million interstellar warships of their affiliated civilizations.
The pressure on the battlefield must be immense.
"Yes.
"The fighting was extremely intense." Emperor Xiaolong nodded without hesitation and said, "I've never experienced anything like that before."
"It seems those Conqueror Civilization guys are really going to take drastic measures against our Wyvern Interstellar Empire this time."
"Then what brings you to our Venerable Civilization Alliance at this time?" Venerable Puyu pressed on with this important question once again.
"Request for help," Zhao Chen replied directly.
Call for help?
Hearing this, the venerable ones were somewhat surprised, but their expressions remained unchanged.
Even before the reception, their think tank had already guessed many possibilities.
One of the most likely possibilities is that they need to ask for help.
However, they did not expect that Emperor Xiaolong would so easily reveal his thoughts on this trip.
"Your Excellency Emperor Xiaolong."
We are aware of the current situation of your X-Rayon Space Cluster.
However, our Venerable Civilization Alliance had also suffered an invasion by the Conqueror Civilization before this.
To be honest, we're all barely able to take care of ourselves.
"We simply don't have the extra resources to support the Dragon Clan." The Shining Venerable spoke, seemingly rejecting the Dragon Emperor's request.
Emperor Zhao Chen swallowed the special snack he had grabbed from the plate next to him.
The taste is not bad.
"This tastes pretty good. Could I pack some to take home later?"
As for asking for help...
I think you all should consider this.
Actually, I don't need to say much.
There are many smart people behind each of them.
I'll just briefly mention a few points.
First and foremost, the conqueror civilization is our common enemy, that much is certain.
We are willing to help whoever can fight the conqueror civilization.
You should be aware of this, given our previous willingness to sell you starships.
I don't want to see your Venerable Civilization Alliance fall, because that would mean I would have to face a new wave of attacks from the Conqueror Civilization alone.
Conversely, if our Dragon Star Empire falls...
Will the Venerable Civilization Alliance be able to withstand the Conqueror Civilization's next attack?
My think tank has conducted simulations and analyses.
If our Dragon Star Empire falls.
Then your Venerable Civilization Alliance will have a timeframe of at least fifteen years, and at most thirty years.
You will lose the ability to resist, and more than two-thirds of the territory will fall.
Emperor Zhao Chen paused for a moment after saying this.
The venerable ones remained silent, which suggests that they themselves were aware of this.
"My request for help this time is to help our Xiaolong Interstellar Empire."
But isn't this also helping yourselves?
And the conditions I offered you.
I believe you will be very happy to accept.
In this support operation.
We will replenish the interstellar warships you lost after the war, and we can replace them with our Xiaolong series interstellar warships.
This includes T6-class JF-17 interstellar warships of equivalent value!
