Chapter 332: Foreign Affairs in Space

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Blue 6 arrived at central command, he was briefed on the situation along the way. He understood everything when he arrived.

“Do not let them get any closer!”

Blue 6’s earlier melancholy had completely disappeared. Now he stood straighter and his voice had confidence. After he arrived at central command, he bowed at Yao Yuan slightly before straightening himself and saying loudly, “We must not allow them to get close. One is the issue of navigational direction and speed. To prevent them from directly ramming into our ship, we have to inform them this. Second, it is about the unsaid contract in space. When both parties are at an unequal level… have their leaders directly come to negotiate with us, or else there is nothing left to say. You Majesty, it is time for me to complete my duties!”

The people around him stared at Blue 6 with their jaws dropped. In reality, their minds were stunned into dumbness. How does one put this? How could this Blue Race alien be so thick-skinned? He was their prisoner, and giving him the role of Minister of Foreign Affairs was only on paper, but he treated it for real and seemed very happy about it… What was going on?

Blue 6 continued on and even ignored Yao Yuan’s curious gaze. “There is no creator’s particles in this space, right? Then change the communication frequency to the space merchants’. That is the lingua franca for space communication. Then transfer my words over to them.”

The operators were stunned. They all looked towards Yao Yuan and Blue 6 said as comprehension dawned, “I am sorry, Your Majesty. I have overstepped my boundaries, but that is only because I was too excited. After all, this is my first mission, and I hope I perform to the best of my ability. So please forgive my mistake… With that in mind, I request to have some power equal to my status as the Secretary of Foreign Affairs. First, I request that there is one space embassy unit that will enable me to respond at first notice whenever an alien race comes into contact with us humans.

“Secondly, I need some staff, like negotiators and my adjutant… Well, I can figure out a way regarding my adjutant, but Your Majesty, there is something I have to say: as the human race’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, don’t you think it is a bit unruly for me to not have a group of honor guard? Of course, I can understand the conundrum we are in at the moment, so I hope that after the main fighting force has been formed, I hope Your Majesty will remember to assign some to the Department of Foreign Affairs. Lastly, I hope Your Majesty will give the Department of Foreign Affairs some degree of control over the ability to announce war. After all, as someone from the Blue Race, I am familiar with the power and psychology of most alien races, and it will help greatly in my responsibilities.”

Even Yao Yuan was baffled by the series of sentences Blue 6 had rattled off. He could not collect himself to respond. Thankfully, Ren Tao beside him coughed and his own Thinker power started to activate. He composed himself and said calmly, “Very good, these powers should be yours since you are willing to take the responsibility of the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Then… I will give you 21 Space Combat Jet Prototype 011s, 20 Black Star Troopers, as well as 100 Defense Unit soldiers to protect and act as your embassy staff. Regarding your honor guard… After we humans have developed some more, I will arrange that for you immediately. Of course, before that, I hope you can resolve this immediate problem facing us.”

Blue 6 was practically glowing. He felt like his heart was going to explode. In fact, when he heard he was going to lead 20 Black Star Troopers, the hesitation in his heart dissipated. Earlier, he was worried that these humans were just pulling his leg, but 20 Black Star Troopers… Yes, Blue 6 knew what the Black Star Troopers were, they were 20 cosmic adapters. This was… such a fortune! 20 cosmic adapters were such a strange concept! F*ck, even level 6 space civilizations had to be cautious around him. If Blue 6 and his men were harmed in any way, they would be hounded by a large amount of same level civilizations!

“Of course, Your Majesty! I will go perform my duties now!”

Blue 6 immediately turned to face the operators. In a voice that was bordering on yelling, he said, “What are you people standing there for? Get moving! Send out the messages before these alien spaceships block our ship’s forward path!”

This time, the operators did not hesitate. After all, this was the most important thing at the moment, and Yao Yuan had given Blue 6 permission. So no matter whether he really wanted Blue 6 to be the Minister of Foreign Affairs or not, they had to solve this imminent crisis first.

Just like that, several seconds later, all of these spaceships received the message from the Hope in the space merchants’ language. This made the different civilizations sigh in relief… After all, this meant that the other party was familiar with space rules and was civilized. That was important for communication and enabled them to seek help.

“Your ship is not allowed to be closer than three combat spaces…”

“Please send out foreign affairs ships to conduct a discussion with our party…”

“To slow down the demonization of your ship, and to monitor possible hostile activities, please do not use any defense mechanisms and allow our combat jets to get close and escort…”

“Please answer in 60 seconds ,or we will treat your contact as hostility, and we reserve the right to attack you directly!”

At that moment, all those ships were at the brink of despair because the closer they got to the Hope, the closer they got to the cursed planet. The signs of demonization were getting rampant. Almost all of the spaceships outside had morphed and around 80 percent of the lifeforms within had changed. So to put it simply, no matter what the Hope ordered them to do, they would obey. It was their last chance at survival.

Very soon, the Hope received the replies. They all agreed to the Hope’s three demands easily, but they requested that the Hope would solve their demonization problem as soon as possible.

When he saw their replies, Blue 6 laughed coldly. He said, “Only with written detailed contracts and the support of powerful battle capability can real contracts be born. This kind of easily given promise is nothing more than a delay strategy. Tell them that we will send out our men to protect their foreign affairs ships to come negotiate with us. At the same time, we will promise to keep their demonization under control, but…”

Blue 6 said, with a wicked smile, “These two! The two that are most affected by demonization. Ignore them completely. After they have fully demonized, get our men to shoot them down! Let these civilizations understand one thing: their lives are in our hands. We are not someone they can afford to swindle or make light of…”

Because Yao Yuan did not interrupt, and because Blue 6 was indeed the successor to the Blue Race’s throne, and because humans really did not know much about space diplomacy, Blue 6 had taken over the operation easily. He did not hesitate to make use of his power. He requested the tour spaceship that was captured to be brought to the hangar. Then he brought 20 Black Star Troopers, about 10 Defense Unit soldiers, and his own people from the Blue Race to leave the Hope with 21 Space Combat Jets Prototype 011s leading the way.

The few spaceships also sent out their own foreign affairs ships in the attempt to make contact. Due to multiple reasons, three spaceships did not send out their people. Under Yao Yuan’s watchful gaze, every alien embassy spaceship was surrounded by 12 Space Combat Jets. Only those three larger spaceships were left completely alone. All of this took less than five minutes to organize. Since there was no creator’s particle, the orders could be given with the press of a button.

Around 10 minutes later, these embassy spaceships gathered at the empty space between the Hope and their motherships. To everyone’s surprise, these few embassy spaceships had started to demonize when they left their motherships, but when they got about 10 kilometers of Blue 6’s ship, the signs of demonization disappeared completely. Of course, the damages were not undone, but all of the weird evolutions like flesh, fire, and ice disappeared and the ships reverted to normal albeit damaged spaceships.

Blue 6, as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, was the most powerful officer there in spite of his captive identity. Yao Yuan had given him the responsibility to settle this issue. When these spaceships neared their tour spaceship, Blue 6 whispered his order to the Black Star Troopers and soldiers around him. “When they enter the spaceship, strip them of their weapons and defense equipment. You do not need to be courteous with them.”

The few Blue Race citizens nodded naturally, but the soldiers looked at each other with confusion. One of the troopers asked after a short hesitation, “But Minister of Foreign Affairs… Minister Blue, is that really suitable for space negotiations?”

Blue 6 turned to give him a smile. “It is absolutely suitable. The human race has not had much contact with other civilizations, right? As my unit members, I will first teach you one important lesson… this is how we do diplomacy in space!”

When Blue 6 said that, the three demonized spaceships lit up with giant explosions. Several Space Combat Jets were ordered to blow them up!
