The existence beside the celestial ships were all young girls who were no more than 17 or 18 years old.
The youngest was even just about ten years old.
But it looked like the celestial being with the youngest age appearance was actually the officer of the group.
“I don’t think this meeting should be held in the cold cabin, how about we invite you all to the bridge for a cup of hot coffee and then talk slowly?”
Lucius invited the celestials in waves.
“Why is there a non-Celestial creature on the Celestial’s ship?” The young girl whose silver hair had fallen to the ground frowned and stared at Lucius.
Behind her, a girl with long and black hair wearing a Nazi-like pitch-black military uniform had taken out a gun and aimed it at Lucius.
The atmosphere had become tense for a while.
“Stand down, Tasha…”
“It’s okay you two, just calm.” Lucius spoke to Naiya and Laisser Mille in response to the hostile intent from the long black-haired girl.
At the command of the silver-haired young girl, the one called Tasha stepped backward immediately.
Laisser Mille and Naiya also reluctantly retreated behind Lucius.
“I didn’t hear that the newborn Celestial became the henchman of an unknown race.” Which silver-haired young girl’s gaze looked up and down at Lucius
“This contact is to retrieve our lost kin, so.. you, human, I can let you live if you choose to leave now.”
“That’s…pretty savage and rude.”
“What did you say?” Which young girl called Tasha, who was standing behind the young girl, seemed to sense the sarcasm in Lucius’s words.
“Tasha!”
“But…Lord Mother Loya.”
“Stand down.”
What a rare scene, a girl that looks younger actually has more majesty and authority than the one that looks older.
However, so what if she had majesty? A young girl is still a young girl, and if she hides her appearance like this.
Some part deep inside must be proportional to the appearance.
“Outsider, you should know clearly the patience of our celestial people towards the outsiders.” She stared coldly at Lucius.
“Why do the Celestials hate the Outsiders so much? Is it fear? No, you who possess great power do not fear anyone, If you are so condescending, I have nothing more to say. But… if it is such an emotion as so-called distrust, I think you guys can rest easy.”
“!” Her expression changed.
Surely…was it distrust?
The Federation was the ruler of this galaxy, all races had to submit to the Federation, and there was no telling how much benefit there would be in terms of benefits from cooperating with the Federation. What about the Celestials who stand in opposition to the Federation?
No matter which race other than Celestials, since they belong to the Federation, they obviously wanted to stab the Celestials in the back, right?
After all, if a Celestial was captured and sent to the Federation, the reward was enough to make any Federation citizen salivate.
The so-called distrust was here.
Legend has it that the original Celestials were deceived by humans to lead to this situation today, the size of the universe is vast but they could only huddle in the dark corner, far from other civilizations.
“As you can see.” Lucius released some of his aura, which was representative of his power, the sixth level of life form. Perhaps this could be considered strong on any planet, but for the celestials.
“I’m weak aren’t i?” Lucius stared at each of them
“I am weak to the extent that each one of you could kill me if we were to fight one by one. Even if I wanted to trap you all, I think you would be able to find out the first time and kill me first.”
“Then I can also make you disappear now, if you don’t choose to leave!” Her words were aggressive, but the smile on Lucius’s face remained the same.
“Impossible… that’s impossible. Didn’t I tell you? This is my territory, every inch of this space belongs to me.”
“You’re kidding! This mothership belongs to our kin! Are you trying to say that.” She stared at Naiya, who was standing next to Lucius.
“That’s right.” Lucius walked behind Naiya and pressed her shoulder
“She belongs to me, nothing can change, even if I am weak to you, no matter how weak, the fact that you can kill me instantly will never change the fact that I will not leave her side, the territory that should be governed must be governed. The existence that should be protected must be protected! She is mine …… no one can take her away from me.”
Every drop of blood, every inch of skin…all of it is mine.
Lucius’s brutal and unreasonable words rang in Naiya’s ears once again.
Although this made Naiya blush in shame, her expression was still very determined as she looked at the group of celestials.
“You ……” Loya was a little aggravated by Lucius’s bold statement and was about to get angry.
“You guys…what are you fighting for?” Lucius suddenly spoke up between them.
“What are you trying to say?”
“I’m asking why you guys are fighting! Fifty years, a whole fifty years of time. From the galaxy to the entire universe, from a small human spreading to all races in the entire universe as enemies, what are you guys… fighting for?”
“……”
It seems that the Celestials have the same level of intelligence as humans, but their emotional intelligence was slightly off the mark. After all, they were only a group of girls living together with no contact to the outside world. Their sense of diplomacy might be a little skewed.
“Can’t answer it? Ah… it seems that you really can’t answer, because for fifty years, it was always the Federation that attacked you! And you guys are all on the defensive… Is this a war? No, how can it be the so-called war.”
It was as if flames were burning in Lucius’s pupils.
“War is a beautiful thing, what it represents is plunder, mutual plunder! Land, resources, lives, war is just a bright word cloaked to plunder these resources, but in the fifty years of fighting with the Federation, what have you gained from the Federation?”
Lucius’s gaze swept between the group of Celestials one by one.
“Nothing! Wandering in the middle of the universe, you don’t even have a territory except for an overly powerful mechanical army, except for the hatred of the Federation, the fear of the human race, you have nothing! nothing but to fight back reluctantly and kill everyone who wants to kill you.”
Every word, every word of Lucius’s penetrated into the marrow of their bones, and the group, who had never been in contact with outsiders, began to think deeply.
“You are merely defending yourselves! Fifty years ago when the first Celestial was born, human greed made you choose to protect yourselves with weapons, and fifty years later. In front of the Federation’s army, you chose to create a more powerful army to protect yourselves… You have no idea of plundering anything, or gaining anything, but simply want to live in this universe.”
Public enemy…the Celestials were the public enemy of the entire universe.
But what have they done, this group of young girls? Apart from destroying a Federation fortress planet fifty years ago. They simply protected themselves.
The Federation wanted to kill them because their qualities led them to become very good weapons of war, weapons of war so feared that the entire universe would tremble.
The Federation had tried to control them and failed, so they could only be eliminated.
Killing indiscriminately may be a bad habit, but Lucius will kill anyone who tries to kill himself.
They were the same.
But… this is too boring! This kind of purpose…it was too boring.
“Don’t you guys hate it?” Lucius’s low tone rang in every Celestial’s ears.
“Humans! That group of inferior lifeform, without any reason, expelled and hunted you down, even if you hadn’t harmed a single life. being hunted by humans endlessly, it’s… unfair, isn’t it? You should have felt this way when you were born! Obviously you did nothing, you were just like ordinary people, just because you were a celestial being. Betrayed by the entire world, suffering the hatred of the entire universe.”
How similar was the situation of Celestials and vampires?
If that was the case, Lucius felt that everyone should be able to understand each other.
“Taking away anyone’s life is something that I don’t think you guys want to do, but you have to do it, simply for self-protection. But what can we do if we go on like this?”
Lucius hit the nail on the head.
“Human greed is never-ending. You have been fighting the Federation for fifty years, and what have you got in return? The Federation’s stronger army, better armed, more sophisticated tactics used to wipe out you, the Celestials! That’s how humans are. Just give them a little hope of winning and they’ll keep trying until you’re all dead.”
“It’s just like you said! But… we can protect our kind, so ……” Loya finally couldn’t help but speak up, but ……
“Protect? It seems you haven’t understood what I mean. Miss Loya.” Lucius was not a peaceful person, in a sense, Lucius was a war-monger
“How many years do you really want to live under the threat of the Federation? One hundred years? Two hundred years? A thousand years? Or is it forever? Is it fun to wander around the universe and run away? Wasn’t it hard?”
“It’s…”
“War, don’t you understand what I mean?”
Lucius’s ten fingers rhythmically moved as he looked at the celestials.
“Fear, is the best way to make humans submit, maybe you destroy one fleet of the Federation, tomorrow the Federation will send two fleets, but if you destroy the front line positions of the Federation, or even break through all the way to the Federation’s planet, the Earth! With a gun to the head of those so-called 4 marshals, then who will want to make enemies of the Celestials in the future?”
That was the cold and harsh truth.
“The time for playing hide and seek should almost be over, ladies, they won’t remember the pain without letting the humans bleed hard once! Fear, make them fear the Celestials, if the whole universe fears the Celestials, then no one will hunt you down, they will even bow down to you.”
How many kings in ancient times did this? Relying not on human favors but on armies so powerful that people dare not resist.
“We Celestials don’t want to make any race a slave, just ……”
“Want a normal life right?” Lucius was right all along, this group of ladies was born with great power, but their appearance was not the only thing that was young and naïve. Their heart was just as naive!
“Then let’s officially have a big war with one heart and one mind! Crush the proud army of the Federation, occupy every inch of its land, and put a gun to the heads of their leaders! Make the Federation a defeated dog in mourning.”
“No one will listen to the wail of a defeated dog, other races will not attach themselves to the defeated race, they will only follow the strong, maybe you don’t like to be the ruler, so how about this.”
A warm smile appeared on Lucius’s face.
“Fight for, the clear blue future of the Celestials, a peaceful life in the future?”
Peace ……
The funny thing was that the Celestials, who were known as a monster-like creature among the Federation, after hearing this word, every one of them had a longing look in their eyes.
“Why should we believe you?” Loya could still maintain her composure, although the aura emanating from Lucius’s body was too terrifying.
“I.. wanted the same thing as you are…”
Lucius held Naiya’s hand
“including the people around me, we want an ordinary life, but unfortunately, now Laisser Mille and I are the most wanted criminals of the Federation.”
Peace was exactly what Laisser Mille sought. He just wanted to live a normal life with his sister.
This kind of emotion…
Loya then glanced at Naiya. She understood her grief.
The first time she happened to worry about celestials and even to protect their lives.
This feeling should be true.
In that case.
“Well, we’ve always had that prayer too.” Loya chose to compromise because of the fact that Lucius was so weak that if he tried to backstab them, the Celestials could easily kill him.
“Just for the sake of the future and peaceful life of our kin, maybe it’s time to attack the Federation.” Loya also realized that this kind of one-dimensional defense would not change anything and would only fuel the Federation’s attack.
