Chapter 26 The Civilization Gap
Chapter 26 Civilization gap
In a wide room, Fang Mingwei and the other two sat in groups. It was not until today that they visited the equipment of a recruit training camp in the Newman Empire that they finally faced the strong shock brought by the gap in civilization.
No wonder Wang Ziqiang chose to join the Newman Empire, and this reason is obvious.
The Earth Alliance is too weak. In the eyes of such a five-level civilized country, the strength of the Earth Alliance is simply not worth a smile. Needless to say, dispatching large-scale troops, even if a level 15 spiritual master is driving a sub-main battleship, it is enough to completely flatten the Earth Alliance.
The huge difference in strength made Wang Ziqiang have no choice at all. Not only him, but even Fang Mingwei, besides becoming a citizen of the empire, there is no second way to go.
Schneider sighed deeply and asked, "Mingwei, what are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking that civilized countries at level 5 have such terrifying combat power. So what about the sixth level or the ninth level? How powerful will they be?"
Schneider smiled bitterly and said, "You are still thinking about the sixth and ninth level countries. If I look at a fifth level countries, we can't handle it."
Keno shook his head, let out a deep sigh, and said, "After seeing other people's strength, I suddenly felt that the struggles within the alliance and the struggles between our Costa family are really funny and ridiculous."
Fang Mingwei and Schneider nodded in the same way. In the eyes of the Newman Empire, no matter how big the Earth Alliance is, they will not look at it with a direct look.
To put it bluntly, it means that there is no interest in the Earth Alliance. Indeed, no one will be interested in the country that can completely smooth out just by sending a spacecraft.
With a casual wave of his hand, Fang Mingwei put aside the gloom in his heart and said, "Forget it, no matter what we think, let's do the current thing first."
Keno nodded slightly and said, "Yes, although I have decided to settle in the Newman Empire in the future, I still have to get back what belongs to me before I leave the Earth Alliance."
"Huh?" Fang Mingwei asked, "Are you leaving the Earth Alliance?"
"Yes, this visit has a great impact on me. I want to try it out if I can do something for my motherland."
Fang Mingwei and Schneider looked at each other. Unexpectedly, after knowing the true strength of the Newman Empire, Keno's mind changed drastically.
"Schneider, where are you?"
"I don't know." Schneider thought about it seriously and said, "I'll talk about this question later."
"Okay, but there's one thing you have to tell me."
"What?"
"You told General Hua Mingtang that I want to participate in the mecha competition. What is that?"
"You said that, it's actually very simple. In our star field, a mecha competition will be held every ten years. Each country can send 100 contestants over the age of 20 and under the age of 100 to participate. Countries that win the top three will receive extremely generous rewards."
Fang Mingwei frowned and said, "This is not fair."
"Why?"
"The civilization level of each country is different, and the mechas they manufacture are of course different. If someone controls the mechas of the fifth-level country and I use the White Crane, then even if someone stands and keeps me from fighting, I can't beat them."
"Nothing nonsense, how can there be a battle between level 5 and level 2 mecha players?" Schneider laughed and said: "In the mecha competition, the competition is divided into national levels, and the opponents of the second-level countries are also second-level countries, so we can get a chance to win."
"Oh, what's the benefit of the winner?"
"Of course there is, and it's not small." Schneider said enviously: "If you get the first place, you can increase your country's civilized national level points by 1,000 points."
"It's that simple?"
"This is not simple." Keno suddenly raised his head and said, "It is difficult to improve the level of civilization. If our Earth Alliance wants to continue to improve the level, it must obtain a large number of clear-level points in the short term. One thousand points in the Mecha Competition are our best chance. What's more,..." He hesitated for a moment and said, "As long as our country's level points meet a certain standard, we can openly obtain relevant science and technology from higher-level countries."
Fang Mingwei glanced around, lowered his voice and said, "You guys say, can we contact the Newman Empire privately and obtain technology directly from them?"
"No." Keno said firmly: "The technology of the Newman Empire is at the level of a fifth-level country, and is far beyond our reach. For example, the Qingsong-class spacecraft, even if it is given to us, we cannot ask for it."
"Can't you want it?" Fang Mingwei looked at him suspiciously and asked in surprise: "You are crazy, you don't want such a good thing."
"Yes, you can't." Keno sighed and said, "This is a fifth-class national spacecraft. Even if you luckily get one, there is only one. Once there is a mechanical failure on the spacecraft, the spacecraft will be directly scrapped. Because no matter what kind of failure it is, it cannot be repaired by the technological strength of our Earth Alliance."
"It's a problem, but since this is a spacecraft from a fifth-level civilized country, the failure rate is generally not too high."
In fact, there was still a sentence in Fang Mingwei's mind that was not said. Whether it was Eck, the Tianyi tribe, or Iverson, they all knew the structure of the warships. With them, most of the failures were no problem.
Keno smiled silently and said, "The failure rate should not be high, but it does not happen. Especially in battle, damage will inevitably occur. Once there are no spare parts at that time, the outcome of this spacecraft can be imagined."
"Okay, the spacecraft can't be used, but the technology should be OK."
"It's very difficult." Keno continued to shake his head and said, "The Newman Empire is not the only one with our Earth Alliance. In this vast star map, there are countless civilized countries with level 4 and level 3 below. If I were the power of the Hyatt Empire, even if I couldn't treat it completely fairly, at least I could not overly favor a certain country."
Fang Mingwei was stunned and had to agree with his statement. After thinking for a long time, he smiled bitterly: "It seems that our Earth Alliance is best to absorb the technology of the third and fourth-level countries now."
"Yes, but it's mainly the various technologies of the third-level countries, because only the technologies of the third-level countries can be learned from and studied, and gradually turned them into our own things." Keno's eyes turned around the faces of the two, saying: "Once there is a gap in civilization, it is basically a delusion to make up for the gap."
"No, right?" Schneider poked Fang Mingwei and said, "Didn't Mingwei develop a stealth device and an energy controller? These two technologies can only be mastered by the fourth-level countries."
Keno's face changed slightly, and he said with a lot of laughter and cry: "Yes, I'm also very strange, Mingwei, how did you study it. The probability of higher-level research is not lacking, but it is small and almost negligible. But you actually threw out two technologies at once, and there are specific manufacturing processes. This is really..." He shook his head, unable to think of how to describe it.
Fang Mingwei giggled and could only attribute it to luck. Whether they believed it or not, Fang Mingwei would never say anything about the soul. Even Schneider, who is as close as a brother, would not do it.
"In every mecha competition, there will be a group of dazzling outstanding mecha players. After the competition, these people will get a free trip to the Newman Empire." Keno's words were filled with a faint smile: "In fact, this competition was initiated by the Newman Empire. It was just strange before. Why were they so enthusiastic? It was not until now that they understood a little."
Fang Mingwei's eyes lit up and he asked, "Do you mean that all those who come to the Newman Empire will join the nationality of the empire?"
"It should be so. The Newman Empire left a part and returned a part. In this way, the military strength of their country became stronger and stronger."
"Will other countries resist?"
"No." Keno said quietly: "Don't forget that the Newman Empire is the peak of the fifth level. In this star map, no country can go against their wishes. Of course, they will also give certain compensation. To be honest, this is also a matter of mutual benefit between the two sides."
Schneider slapped Fang Mingwei on the shoulder and said, "Mingwei, the last time he played for the league was Senior Brother Colin. He brought back the first place in the second-level country. Don't let us down this time."
Fang Mingwei looked at him angrily and said, "It's not certain whether I can participate in this competition. You can stop making excuses."
"You can definitely participate, otherwise the teacher wouldn't set a deadline for us to return."
Fang Mingwei calculated with a slight finger and said, "Although a year has not arrived yet, we are too far from the Earth Alliance now. Should we rush back soon?"
"Okay, anyway, this time we discovered the jumping points and monsters of the meteorite group, which is enough to raise our mercenary level to the third level." Keno nodded and said, "God of General Huamingtang, we should go back as well, and we have prepared for it."
The three of them were talking when suddenly the doorbell rang. When they opened it, they found that it was the fat leader.
