I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World-Chapter 948 - 584: One-Sided Negotiations_1
Chapter 948: Chapter 584: One-Sided Negotiations_1
This time, Star displayed another new history to the other party.
Five minutes later, the new history of the Fish Star People came to an abrupt halt.
Everything about the Fish Star People would come to an end in the Voyager Galaxy in five minutes.
The reason was simple: if the other party still refused to negotiate, humans would press the detonation switch of the freshly baked annihilation bomb in five minutes.
After that, everything would be irreversible.
All matter within one light-year around the Voyager Galaxy would enter the Zero State.

Even if the Fish Star People turned around and retreated now, they would not be able to escape the one light-year range in five minutes.
Over eight billion Fish Star People and the still-present fifteen billion human soldiers in the Voyager Galaxy would be buried here.
For humans, it would mean losing a planetary base and a large number of soldiers, including creative talents like Tiffany Bell and Quentin Cooper who had just begun to show their potential.
But for the Fish Star People, it would represent the end of their race’s history.
The loss to humans would be great, but the entire Fish Star race would vanish from the universe.
Harrison Clark didn’t know what instructions the Fish Star People had received from the Compound-Eyed Observer or how they had communicated.
But humans had put the final choice one last time before the other party.
Star even explicitly told the other party that if they tried to withdraw from the Voyager Galaxy and showed signs of running away, they would detonate directly.
Humans couldn’t possibly allow the other party to walk away unscathed and threaten the next galaxy.
Both sides must have an open and honest conversation.
Harrison Clark waited in the virtual world for five minutes, and the environment around him finally began to change.
The Fish Star People finally responded.
The liquid planet in front of Harrison Clark’s eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by the star map of the Voyager Galaxy.
The dense school of fish was withdrawing from the intertwined battle lines and beginning to retreat.
In the new history depicted by the other party, the Fish Star People had stopped attacking and instead regrouped and retreated to the outer layer of the Radiation Cloud, but no further.
The Fish Star People would strictly comply with human demands and temporarily cease fire.
Obviously, the universe-level “nuclear weapon” of the annihilation bomb had the deterrent effect humans wanted.
In previous battles, although humans showed strong combat power and could continuously consume the vital forces of the Fish Star People, they didn’t have the means to destroy them instantly.
Now they could; although it was just a regional mutual destruction, it was enough.
Harrison Clark asked Star via communication, “Has the other party in the Voyager Galaxy stopped firing now?”
Star replied, “The fish schools have begun to withdraw, but our soldiers don’t know that and have caused casualties of about several million Fish Star soldiers during the pursuit.”
Harrison Clark nodded, “Alright, notify everyone to cease fire completely.”
Harrison Clark sighed with relief secretly.
It seemed that the Fish Star People had suffered some losses, but on second thought, with the massive price the Voyager Galaxy had paid, there was no imbalance.
The violent reactions of the artificially stimulated Radiation Cloud would continue to release for more than fifty years, and the entire environment of the Voyager Galaxy had been changed.
Rebuilding their homeland would be a long and protracted task for the Travelers.
Moreover, in order to create the annihilation bomb, a large amount of stored energy in the Voyager Galaxy had been consumed.
To accelerate energy acquisition, humans even briefly opened the Stellar Rapid Development System’s overload operation, causing irreversible damage to the Star.
The Voyager Star could never return to its previous state again.
After giving the orders, Harrison Clark continued to look back at the other party’s stacked language architecture virtual world with an indifferent expression.
He was considering how to deal with the Fish Star People.
They could not just let them walk away easily.
If they are not of our kind, their hearts will be different.Both sides were fighting to the death just a moment ago; it was unreasonable for them to suddenly become friendly once they stopped fighting.
Harrison Clark, the senior leaders of the human military, and the command system of the Voyager Galaxy still did not trust the Fish Star People.
It seemed there was only one option left: civilians would no longer return to the Voyager Galaxy, and only a portion of soldiers would coexist with the fish swarms within the galaxy, mutually restraining and monitoring each other, ultimately achieving the goal of confining their opponents to a planetary system.
With humanity’s present productivity, manufacturing an imitation liquid Homeworld for the other party was not difficult.
As Harrison Clark pondered, the scene in front of him changed once more.
The fish swarms began to approach each other, reverting to long strips and intertwining with each other.
As more fish swarms gathered, a meteorite-like sphere appeared in space.
The sphere grew larger and larger, similar to the process in which a planetary mass core gradually attracts small rocks and dust particles floating in the universe, eventually forming a planet.
Harrison’s eyebrow raised, “What’s happening?”
Starry immediately projected an image in his mind.
At this time, the fish swarms outside the Radiation Cloud of the Voyager Galaxy were undergoing changes just as the virtual image showed, but much slower.
Starry: “I am not sure if they are dying or hibernating, but as each individual fish swarm approaches the sphere, they suddenly lose all signs of life. The sphere is no longer biological or mechanical, but has become a true cosmic meteorite. The image you see in front of you is accelerated about ten thousand times. According to my calculations, all Fish Star People will die within ten years.”
“This…”
Harrison was astonished.
What did the Fish Star People mean by this?
Had they chosen death over the risk of being confined?
This was nonsense; they had been enslaved by the Compound-Eyed Observer for so many years, and now they had suddenly grown backbone?
“Quantum life, I have just learned human language. We do not understand why a high-order critical life form like you would help unrelated alien species.”
At this point, an electronically synthesized human voice appeared in Harrison’s ears.
The Fish Star People finally confronted him in conversation.
There were many problems with this short sentence.
For example, they had mistaken Harrison’s race, and the strange tone of their speech sounded like a regional human language dialect from an unknown location.
However, Harrison did not respond.
He had not finished reading the information the other party wanted to convey to him; for now, he was only reading it unilaterally.
Understanding stacked language from a human perspective was a bit like sending an email.
Information exchanges could not provide real-time feedback like face-to-face conversations; there was always a delay in reading and responding to the vast information from each other.
The advantage of stacked language was the large amount of information it could convey, but the drawback was that each segment of information had to be based on the previous segment, which made the Fish Star People’s reaction to new things seem slow-moving.
“We are sorry for launching an attack on you. We cannot hope for forgiveness; this is just a natural law of the universe. We chose to stop the attack because you now have the ability to destroy us instantly.”
“When the Compound-Eyed Observer modified us, it engraved control valves in our genes. As soon as our offensive stops, we will die off quickly, and we will become a cosmic meteorite. Please leave this meteorite planet wherever you like. At least it will prove that we were once born and prospered in the Milky Way Galaxy. Our entire memory will be stored in the meteorite as image data. We will follow the same fate as the Rock Life and become a magnetic tape floating in the universe.”
As Harrison listened to this, he understood their intentions: they wanted their remains to be intact.
Continuing to attack humanity would result in complete obliteration.
To defy the Compound-Eyed Observer’s order and die off because of the gene control valve would at least leave some sort of memorial.
The choice between these two options was not difficult.
Harrison responded this time.
He nodded, “Alright. On behalf of humanity, I accept your request.”
This time, the other party immediately responded.
After some garbled noise, the synthesized voice rang out again.
It was as if Harrison had activated a new interactive interface on his computer.
The other party spoke, “Thank you for your leniency. I have opened the deepest level of information encryption. Next, you will see a memory related to humans, an event that happened on Earth. This might help humanity continue to explore its potential.”
