Chapter 1033 Conflict Between Two Camps
Although Shepard already had a lot of ideas when she came here, when she saw the giant dragon in front of her with her own eyes, she still had a sense of surrealism...
"Ah...mortal."
Looking at the three stunned villains in front of him, Fang Zheng, who had changed back to the time dragon form, chuckled inwardly. He lifted the huge dragon's head and stared at Shepard, Liana and Tully in front of him. Feeling the sight of the giant dragon in front of them, even Shepard and the others couldn't help but their legs softened, and they almost fell to their knees.
Although in the universe and space, they have also faced enemies like the Overlord. In terms of size alone, the Overlord is many times larger than the Time Dragon.
However... Does the overlord have the power of a dragon?
Although this world is a very high-tech world, at least it is also technology!
As for something as magical as Longwei...
"You came to my territory, what's the matter?"
"Hello…………"
After all, Shepard was a soldier, relying on his firm will to be the first to recover from Fang Zheng's dragon's awe, but Liana and Tully were obviously not so lucky. In an instant, he was completely knocked out by Long Wei. If Fang Zheng hadn't restrained Long Wei, the two of them might even become lunatics if they were caught off guard.
"I am the ghost Shepard of the Citadel Council. We are ordered by the Citadel Council to come here to investigate the previous conflict."
"Ah...those lowly reptiles..."
Hearing this, Fangzheng sneered even more.
"If they dare to invade my territory and attack my people, they will have to pay the price. Is there any problem?"
"Uh………"
Faced with Fang Zheng's arrogant answer, Shepard didn't know what to say for a while, she coughed lightly, and then reluctantly brought the topic back.
"But according to the Citadel..."
"What is the castle?"
"The Citadel is an alliance of civilizations in the galaxy."
Shepard felt that the conversation was getting out of his control, but she answered anyway. After all, not someone who sees a hundreds of meters long dragon talking face to face with himself can still keep his face and heart beating. And to be honest, Shepard already regrets accepting this task a bit now. She is a commander and a warrior who has experienced many battles, but she is not a diplomat or an ambassador.
With twists and turns like politics and diplomacy, Shepard has always been able to hide, but now, she has confirmed that this is a brand new race... Then things will be very troublesome. Will it cause any problems? If a conflict or even a war breaks out, and if he blames himself, then Shepard will be really speechless.
Thinking about it carefully, those bastards in the Citadel probably didn't mean to read their own jokes.
"alliance?"
Fangzheng poked his head out, approaching Shepard, stared at by those golden eyes, even Shepard felt a little uncomfortable, and nodded hastily.
"Yes, regarding this conflict... It is true that the Turians attacked first, but at that time..."
Speaking of this, Shepard suddenly got stuck, because she just realized that this matter... is not appropriate no matter what!
You must know that from the very beginning, no matter if it was the Turians, the Citadel, or even Anderson and Shepard themselves, they believed that the mysterious forces that appeared in the wandering galaxy were probably humans. And if it is a human being, then this is an internal matter of human beings, and it only needs to be coordinated.
But now, Shepard has confirmed that this civilization has nothing to do with humans—this is no nonsense, there is no such thing as a giant dragon in humans! !
Then things get complicated.
As I said before, there is an old grudge between Turians and humans. The two sides have only ceased fighting for decades, and most of them don't like each other. This is also the reason why the former Turians were annoyed when they saw Fangzheng. In the eyes of the Turians, the other party was a human being, so their appearance here was an act of treachery that knowingly broke the treaty.
That's why the turians would attack.
But according to the current situation, the opponent has nothing to do with humans at all, and is a brand new civilization, then the attack by the Turians is an unreasonable hostile act—at least from the perspective of the opponent!
So what can I say?
I am not a Turian, so there is no need to help them wipe their asses!
"Mortal, I already understand why you are here."
Fangzheng also took the initiative at this moment, he stared at Shepard, and continued talking.
"However, our Tiandao Palace is not a place where people are bullied at random. All the races here are my people. Any attack on my people is a declaration of war against me and the entire Tiandao Palace! We do not We hope for war, but we are not afraid of war. If those lowly savage reptiles still dare to invade my territory and harm my people, then I will let those lowly reptiles experience the real destruction and death !"
Having said this, Fangzheng also hummed softly, spread his wings suddenly, and raised his head. The terrifying Longwei erupted instantly, enveloping Shepard and others.
".........!"
Feeling the terrifying coercion coming, Shepard couldn't help but gritted his teeth and took a step back, and Tully behind her was even more embarrassed. If she hadn't grabbed Shepard's arm, she might have collapsed a long time ago. On the ground.
And it wasn't until the three of them could hardly bear it that Fang Zheng withdrew his coercion and curled up again.
"Everyone has worked hard from afar. We will prepare food and rooms for you, and help you repair the damaged battleship. Now, you can leave."
"..."
This time, Shepard didn't say anything, just nodded, and then turned and left with the other two.
"call………"
After the three left, Fang Zheng regained his human form and yawned.
"It's really troublesome..."
"Is this really okay? Brother?"
Tilia, who was eavesdropping at the moment, also walked to Fang Zheng's side with a smile, and took his arm.
"Are you sure, we don't need to have further contact with the Citadel?"
"For now, there is no need for this."
Facing Tilia's question, Fangzheng shook his head. In fact, when Shepard and others entered here, he had carefully considered this issue. However, in the end, Fang Zheng still decided to keep a distance from the Citadel, and he would not join the Citadel. What kind of power the Citadel is, Shepard doesn't need Fangzheng to know it well. To put it bluntly, the Citadel is actually equivalent to a galaxy version of the United Nations.
Moreover, there are currently four permanent members of the council. If Fangzheng joins, it may become the top five.
However... Joining the Council of God's Castle will not be of any benefit to Fang Zheng. At least for now, he doesn't want the power of this universe to get too deeply involved with his Heavenly Dao Palace.
But he is not helpless, at least...the appearance of Shepard and others gave Fang Zheng an idea.
Different from Fang Zheng's relaxed and freehand style, Shepard, who returned to the Normandy, was frowning.
She thinks things are too simple!
Shepard is not stupid, let alone stupid. Although she doesn't like the twists and turns of politics, it doesn't mean that Shepard doesn't understand the meaning of it. The giant dragon said a word before, "All the races here are my people"... Of course Shepard understands the meaning of this sentence, that is to say, this time, I will wait for someone to face it. Yes, it is not a single alien group, but an alliance composed of several groups just like the Citadel!
That's why the giant dragon was mocking when she heard her introduction to the Citadel. At that time, she hoped to use the alliance of the Citadel to suppress the dragon, but she didn't expect that things were more troublesome than she imagined. !
Compared with the Citadel of God, this alliance is even closer. The Citadel of God's Council is like the United Nations, there is no distinction between each other, and there is no question of who is in charge. But this union clearly has an absolute, supreme ruler. This also means that this is not a problem between the God's Castle Council and a certain alien race, but a conflict between the two camps.
This is beyond the scope of my own processing!
"Clown, is the communication system still available?"
"Of course, Commander, but this is inside the opponent's battleship..."
Facing Shepard's inquiry, the clown showed a embarrassed expression, and he knew that he was a little worried about the safety of communication here.
But where does Shepard care about this now?
"Contact Anderson immediately!"
