Chapter 382 Dilemma

"Ralph, how likely do you think it is that we can occupy the Dark Domain?"

Ralph shook his head and said, "If the Dark Domain is so easy to occupy, it won't be our turn."

How long has the Terra Empire been in the Dark Star Domain?

And how long have the thousands of civilizations in the Dark Star Domain existed?

If there is a little bit of feasibility, the Dark Domain would have been divided up by the major forces in the Dark Star Domain.

Unlike now, it is still an ownerless land.

As for the reason, it is very simple.

Because the Dark Domain is a battlefield, the battlefield between the Intelligent Legion and the Ork Barbarians.

These two natural disaster civilizations are simply not something that ordinary interstellar civilizations can shake.

Can the Terra Empire do it?

Of course not.

Because he didn't know much about the Dark Domain, Li Meng planned to move towards the Dark Domain.

Thinking that even if there is a huge threat in the Dark Domain, as long as it stands firm, the Terra Empire can have a place in the Dark Domain.

But he didn't expect that the Dark Domain would be the battlefield of two natural disaster civilizations.

Whether it is the Intelligent Legion or the Ork Barbarians, neither of them is easy to provoke.

Thinking of this, Li Meng sighed in his heart.

He took it for granted.

"King, although the Empire does not have the ability to occupy the Dark Domain at this stage, it can fight guerrilla warfare like other civilizations in the Dark Star Domain, mine rare minerals, and build some mining bases. When the enemy comes, just retreat. If it is destroyed, it will not be a pity, just rebuild it."

What Ralph said is also a way, and it is also a fact.

Li Meng has self-knowledge. With the current strength of the Empire, it is like an egg hitting a stone to compete with the Intelligent Machine Corps and the Ork Barbarians.

But if it is said that fighting guerrilla warfare like other civilizations, Li Meng is a little unwilling.

If the Empire wants to embark on the road of rapid development, it must have a piece of land rich in resources.

And the Dark Domain is the only choice for the Empire.

And now, this only choice seems to have become a luxury.

Sitting on the sofa, Li Meng frowned and looked thoughtful.

What should I do?

Change the target and choose to return to the novice area where the trade mall is located?

When thinking of the trade mall, Li Meng thought of "Zero".

Since coming to the Dark Star Domain, "Zero" has been silent.

Personal missions completely disappeared.

Unlike in the S star zone, the abnormal point missions are very frequent.

This gave Li Meng a guess.

In the novice zone, "Zero" will give humans some guidance.

But when humans leave the novice zone, they will be free.

When the first generation of humans dies, "Zero" will completely disappear.

Because naturally bred humans do not have that kind of magical chip in their brains.

However, returning to the novice zone is also somewhat unrealistic.

There are two reasons.

First, how to return?

They came to the dark star field through the star gate, and the star gate is one-way.

If you use a superlight engine to travel, it will take more than ten years.

If you want to go back, you must obtain the star gate technology from the Titan Empire.

Build a star gate leading to the novice zone in the wormhole of the S-91911 star system.

Second, how to deal with the blue devil in the novice zone?

That is the natural disaster civilization feared by the Titan Empire.

With the current strength of the Pan-Galactic United States and the Terra Empire, going back is like a meat bun hitting a dog.

Is there any other way to solve the current predicament of the empire?

Thinking about it, Li Meng had to admit a fact.

He chose to go to the dark star domain, but he was trapped because of it.

Calculating the time, it has been ten years since humans were reborn in the starry sky.

In these ten years, I don’t know how far humans in other parts of the Milky Way have developed.

Or continue to eat soft rice?

Li Meng thought of the ghost tribe again.

The ghost tribe can be regarded as a semi-disaster civilization, and its influence is spread throughout the entire Milky Way.

After the death of the first generation queen, the branches can be said to be spreading.

The internal struggle has made the ghost tribe stronger and stronger as a whole.

Although the main body now is the second generation queen, the third generation queen also exists.

After the death of the second generation queen, the generals who fled under her will become the third generation queen.

If he can invade the consciousness network of the ghost tribe and become the core of the consciousness network, he can control the entire ghost tribe.

As long as he gathers 3-5 fleets of the second generation queens, he can sweep across the dark domain.

What kind of intelligent machine army and Ork barbarians are all no problem.

The intelligent machine army is very strong, and the Ork barbarians are also very strong.

But both of them were seriously consumed in the long war.

One is a program setting problem, biting the Ork barbarians.

The other is that as long as they fight, they can have a technological explosion and become stronger and stronger.

The battle between the two is a war of attrition, and neither can do anything to the other.

Really want to eat gigolo?

Li Meng was a little tempted.

Seeking the power of the ghost tribe is indeed the best way at the moment.

But it takes too much time. .

It may take more than ten years, or even decades, to occupy the core of the ghost tribe's consciousness network.

He can't leave for so long.

Because no one knows what will happen during the time he is away.

Moreover, the power of the ghost tribe is too scattered. It will take at least more than ten years to assemble the fleets of 2-5 queens.

It may take about fifty years to go back and forth.

That's half a century.

After thinking about it, Li Meng gave up the idea of ​​eating gigolo.

Although gigolo is delicious, a real man is a tough one.

"Let's talk about it later. The Dark Domain is so big that even the Intelligent Corps can't cover every star system. We should conduct the first phase of exploration of the Dark Domain first, and then we can talk about the rest later. We should adapt to the situation as it develops."

Ralph agreed with what the "king" said.

Indeed, it can only be like this.

The universe is really too big.

In the old imperial era.

Although the territory of the empire spreads throughout the Milky Way, there are still countless unexplored star regions.

New star systems and new aliens are discovered every day.

At this point, Li Meng smiled and said, "Even if the Dark Domain cannot be colonized, the Dark Domain is still a treasure land. This trip to the Dark Domain will not be in vain. The empire is now short of rare resources. The worst case is just a full load."

Li Meng has two purposes for this trip to the Dark Domain.

One is to tentatively colonize the Dark Domain.

Now it seems that this idea is a bit unrealistic.

Because the existence of the Intelligent Corps and the Orks makes the Dark Domain very dangerous.

If you colonize a habitable planet, you may be visited by the Omnic Corps and the Orks one day.

Even if the possibility is only 1%, Li Meng will not take the risk.

Before completely solving the two major threats of the Omnic Corps and the Orks, Li Meng will no longer think about colonizing the Dark Domain.

The second goal is to obtain rare resources.

The rare minerals of the Empire have been exhausted.

The reason why the Temple, which has been built for ten years, has not been completed is precisely because of the scarcity of Sikkim.

This time, we must return with a full load and complete the Temple.

Once the Temple is built, the Empire will have the Astronomican again.

By then, he can be free.

And the Imperial Fleet can truly travel freely.

No need to be watched by him all the time and need him to guide the direction.
