The Mobius Civilization's highest command wasn't unaware of this matter, but they didn't have any good solutions and could only let it be. What else could they do? Break off relations with the other side? The consequences of doing that were self-evident. At that point, it wouldn't just be a matter of intelligence.

However, they were also prepared for this situation. Some top-secret research still had certain safeguards. At least, before they revealed it, the advanced civilization would have difficulty obtaining information, mainly due to the arrogance that the advanced civilization exuded from its very core.

If that weren't the case, and the other side paid them a little more attention, they really wouldn't have any secrets left. Constantly admitting defeat and retreating on the front lines wasn't entirely without effect. At least, the Mobius Civilization wasn't currently regarded as an opponent by the advanced civilization.

They were just seen as a bug that could be crushed at any time. In reality, they were already on the threshold of reaching an advanced civilization. Just one step further and they could enter the same realm as those advanced civilizations. It was this one step that had stumped countless people. Crossing it was an extremely difficult task.

Doris's sudden involvement put the Arau Civilization in a passive state. What was going on? Weren't they just supposed to go through the motions? No, it seemed that nothing had been agreed upon. It was just a consensus reached between the two sides. Now, they had been caught off guard.

At this rate, their defeat was only a matter of time. When that time came, even with the support of the advanced civilization behind them, they would have to sacrifice some利益. As beings who had grown up in war, even though the Arau Civilization had become pawns in the hands of the advanced civilization, they understood this principle.

As long as they took one step back, they would only be able to retreat continuously afterward. Next, they would fall into a vicious cycle, with only one consequence: being slowly蚕食 by the other side and becoming a force to strengthen them. Hmm?! The advanced civilization wouldn't sit idly by, but they wouldn't provide much help either.

After all, a useless pawn would be discarded and become nourishment for the next pawn. They had to know that the advanced civilization had more than just them as pawns. Currently, the only reason they were valued was that they were useful and obedient.

If they were no longer useful, even an obedient pawn would be worthless. Knowing this, the Arau Civilization decided to turn their feigned efforts into a real war, and transferred all of their previously dormant fleets.

All strategic materials and strategic weapons were taken out. The Mobius Civilization had also been prepared for this. When Doris joined the battlefield, the highest command's eyes lit up at his power. They hadn't expected that even after this failed invasion war, the other side could still bring such a pleasant surprise.

Who were the people in the highest command? Each and every one of them had fought their way up from the bottom. The term 'battle-hardened' wasn't enough to describe them. Due to the special nature of the Mobius Civilization, wanting to enter the highest command without having been on the battlefield was simply a pipe dream.

Everyone had shed blood for the civilization and made great contributions. Even Doris's current military achievements were still somewhat lacking compared to the people in the highest command. It was worth mentioning that he was the only fleet commander who hadn't entered the highest command.

Of course, from this, one could see how much the Mobius Civilization valued this young general. Regardless of the aspect, Doris was one of the most outstanding generals in the Mobius Civilization.

If this scope was narrowed down to the younger generation, one could even remove the words 'one of'. In the younger generation, Doris had already reached the limit. Before him, everyone who had achieved this had become the supreme commander of the Mobius Civilization.

Of course, his background forces had contributed to this, but to be honest, every supreme commander had the support of sufficiently powerful forces behind them. Relying solely on oneself to achieve this was an extremely difficult task.

Not only did one need to possess a good battlefield intuition and excellent command ability, but the most difficult thing was how to stand out from the many soldiers. Often, the first step was the most difficult. Even Doris, who had the support of forces behind him, had put in a lot of effort to achieve this.

In an era of full armament, anyone could display impressive abilities on the battlefield. But wanting to show one's potential among so many people and gain the appreciation of superiors was extremely difficult.

However, after taking the first step, one might rise rapidly or be submerged in the vast sea of people. Regardless of the civilization, as long as it was a civilization with intelligence, it had one characteristic: selfishness. This problem existed in the Mobius Civilization, the Human Civilization, and even those advanced civilizations.

This was also why the Mechanical Civilization was terrifying. They simply didn't know what selfishness was. Rather than saying that they were composed of individual units, it was better to say that these units all originated from a mother body. Even if they knew this, they had no way to eliminate the existence of the mother body.

Because each and every one of these individuals could be the most crucial mother body. They couldn't even find it, let alone eliminate it. Therefore, they drove the other side away, forcing them to endure not only the harsh environment in the wilderness but also the shortage of resources.

In this way, even if the other side was powerful, they couldn't possibly stir up any trouble. Not only did they force the other side into the wilderness, but as soon as they discovered any resource planets being born in the other side's territory, they would occupy these resource planets at the first opportunity.

They didn't give the other side any chance. It was unknown who made this decision, but it was very effective. The Mechanical Civilization was declining day by day. Previously, they could resist the encirclement of most advanced civilizations in the universe, but now they simply couldn't do that.

Compared to before the encirclement, they only had about 30% of their power left. On the one hand, they suffered heavy losses in the encirclement, and on the other hand, they had no way to obtain timely replenishment. Even maintaining their current strength was a difficult task. Many individuals of the Mechanical Civilization had already fallen into slumber to reduce resource consumption.

If this trend continued, it wouldn't be long before they were naturally eliminated. But they weren't willing to end like this. To be honest, they had indeed angered other civilizations in the past with their resource plundering, but they hadn't done anything else bad.

Why did they have to be eliminated? Couldn't they be given a space to survive? Besides, no one had discussed this matter with them. They were encircled as soon as they came up. Robots also had tempers, especially the rulers of the Mechanical Civilization. As the kings of the digital world, how could they endure this grievance?

Leaving aside what plans they might have, let's turn our attention back to Earth, to Fang Yuan. He was currently operating at full capacity, letting everyone know why he was the highest peak in academia, and why no one had challenged this guy so far.

One person could actually make everyone revolve around him and make these people fulfill their duties in an orderly manner. Perhaps this was one of the reasons why no one could compare to him!

Full power, once again refreshing people's understanding of him. Originally, it was only thought that his individual strength had reached a realm that the Human Civilization couldn't touch, but he could actually make the group reach a level beyond the limit. This was the strength that the first scientist in history should possess, right?

Not only Earth, but Fang Yuan's gaze had already been placed in the universe. However, there were only three places that he needed to worry about now. The human's base camp, Earth, naturally didn't need to be said. Mars hadn't escaped Fang Yuan's clutches either, and even Europa, which was about to be completed, was the same.

In order to protect Earth, Mars and Europa both had Fang Yuan's developed stellar-level weapon - Annihilation. Using the planet as a base, it could withstand the full power of Annihilation. At critical moments, Mars and Europa were two war fortresses.

In the subsequent process, Fang Yuan planned to establish a complete defense system for these two planets. Not only were they simple weapons, but at that time, they could be unexpected, letting those who were eyeing them know that the Human Civilization wasn't so easy to provoke!

Whether the Human Civilization was easy to provoke or not, there wasn't a clear concept yet. On the Mobius Civilization's side, it was still based on Doris's report. A civilization with unlimited potential, but barely touching the threshold of a mid-level civilization, could be said to not be easily solved, but it couldn't be considered an opponent.

However, when they turned around, they would find that the Human Civilization had grown up. It wasn't something they could easily solve. It wasn't as difficult to deal with as the Arau Civilization, but it could be considered to have the capital to contend with them.

They had to know that the current Mobius Civilization was in internal and external difficulties. There was only one way to break through the current predicament, and that was to grow to the level of an advanced civilization. Everyone knew this solution, but whether it could be done was another matter. Doris brought back the unmanned warship technology, allowing the Mobius Civilization to reduce many losses on the battlefield.

For them, a mature warrior was more important than a second-rate warship. If the scale of warriors had not been maintained at this level, how could they only have sixteen fleet groups? Based on the resources they currently occupied, expanding it by another double wouldn't be too much pressure.

It was just a pity that the scale of warship pilots and warriors had not improved. They didn't only have the Arau Civilization as an enemy. There were about 5 or more enemies surrounding them, which meant that even in the face of a full-scale war with the Arau Civilization, they could not deploy more than ten fleet groups.

Even if it wasn't their full strength, it was enough to beat the Arau civilization into a series of retreats. If they weren't wary of the higher civilization behind them, a full-scale counterattack would have already begun. After driving the opponent back, the Mobius civilization's army didn't choose to continue the pursuit, but instead, they rested in place and cleaned up the battlefield.

In the end, the resources abandoned by the Arau civilization during their retreat were enough to make up for the losses of this war, though it did delay their development time. There was no helping it; the higher civilization's goal had been achieved. This was just a warning, and another warning had already been conveyed to the Supreme Command.

What angered them was that they had no power to resist the higher civilization's warning. They didn't expect that their concealment was so good, yet they were still discovered by the other side. They could only move these matters underground. This was their hope for advancing to a higher civilization, and they couldn't just give up on it.

However, this would slow down their progress a lot. There was no helping it. They couldn't ask for too much. The fact that they could continue at all was because they had recently created an underground laboratory.

The newest novels are first published on Liu 6 9 Shu Ba!

It wasn't just an ordinary underground laboratory, but an underground laboratory that could completely isolate the prying eyes of higher civilizations. The environment was a bit harsh, and the resources they needed might not arrive here in the first instance, but as long as they could continue this research, they would be very satisfied.

However, what they found strange was that the other warning from the higher civilization was not to continue improving their unmanned warship technology? Why was that? Oh well, this level of unmanned warship technology was already enough, and there was no need to continue developing it.

Anyway, it wasn't a technology that could allow them to turn the tables. At most, it was just icing on the cake, unable to achieve a comeback from a desperate situation. Since that was the case, they might as well temporarily agree to it. However, the higher civilization had also witnessed the current strength of the Mobius civilization. While giving a warning, they also compensated for their losses.

The development rights to several resource stars on the border of the Arau civilization were all handed over to the Mobius civilization. Of course, these were several resource stars that weren't very rich, and they didn't have much impact on the Arau civilization. However, they weren't very convinced in their hearts.

Unfortunately, there was really no way around it. This was the sorrow of being unable to control oneself. Fortunately, the Mobius civilization didn't defect to these higher civilizations. When they were useful, they would treat you as an honored guest, but when you were useless, you were nothing. It was simply too realistic and too ruthless.

The Mobius civilization accepted all of these resource stars. Even a mosquito has meat, and besides, these resource stars couldn't be considered mosquito meat for the Mobius civilization. At the very least, they could be considered quails, right?

It could barely satisfy their appetite. You had to know that compared to the Arau civilization, the Mobius civilization was indeed not as abundant in resources. A few resource planets were enough to support several of their warship fleets.

Fang Yuan still didn't know the final result of the war between the Mobius civilization and the Arau civilization, but no matter what, strengthening himself now was not a bad thing.

Regarding the entire course of the Earth trip, Doris made a comprehensive explanation to the Supreme Council after returning to his home star. No matter what the reason, he had to accept this failure. Who would have thought that a civilization that couldn't cause them great losses in terms of offensive capabilities would actually possess a tortoise-shell-like defense?

It couldn't be denied that Doris's role on the frontline battlefield this time, as well as the unmanned warship technology he brought back, helped the Mobius civilization's power more than it hurt. Doris instead received an award and was promoted to one of the members of the Supreme Council.

This was also the youngest member of the Supreme Council still in office! Looking at Mobius history, it was rare for someone his age to be able to enter the Supreme Council.

But what does all this have to do with humans? Perhaps there really is some connection. Doris had always been thinking about his failure on Earth and wanted to regain face from the humans.

As long as things stabilize here and the Mobius civilization can mobilize more power, the human civilization will face an even greater crisis at that time.

No, perhaps it's not a crisis, but their official debut on the grand stage of the universe!
