Chapter 172 Taking the bait
The only correct guess was rejected by the elders, and you can never get the correct answer by guessing alone.

"No need to speculate. The forces that gain authority will participate in the meeting sooner or later. We will know then."

The elders made a final summary, saying that if one did not participate in the authority meeting, one would not be able to gain much benefit by relying on the mere 1.5% authority.

Only by working together can we achieve the greatest benefits.

……

In the gravitational space, Wang Fei was thinking about how to make the Cyber ​​civilization hand over its authority.

It is difficult to make a hegemonic civilization completely surrender by relying solely on Carol.

But now the Cyber ​​civilization is still facing pressure from the empire.

A vague plan took shape in Wang Fei's mind, but whether it could be implemented depended on whether the text box was powerful enough.

It is important to let the text determine that obtaining permissions is the option that maximizes benefits and provides a chance for the plan to succeed.

"Make the virus program first. This is the key to gaining authority."

Wang Fei instructed Carol to use the virus to cause a crisis of destruction of Cyber ​​civilization. This was a key part of the plan and no accidents should occur.

"Don't worry, it's just a silicon-based life form, you can control it at will."

Carol was quite confident that her database contained the entire process of how Cybertron destroyed the Cybertron civilization.

Carol has some experience in dealing with silicon-based civilizations.

"The structure of Cyber ​​civilization is very similar to that of Seitan civilization. Both are silicon-based life forms that are highly integrated with mechanical structures."

"Even if they take precautions, they cannot protect themselves from sexually transmitted viruses."

"As long as we can control their mechanical bodies through the cosmic network, we can control their lives."

This virus sounds simple, but it is actually very difficult to create.

As a dominant civilization, the silicon-based life forms of Cyber ​​must have been prepared for an attack that could wipe out their entire race.

Firewalls must exist, and there may even be completely mechanical parts within their bodies that contain no circuits.

This type of structure cannot be hacked into or controlled through computing systems.

In order to threaten such a mechanical structure, a customized restraint plan is necessary.

Therefore, what Carol prepared was not actually a virus.

Rather, it is a subroutine that can replicate itself in large numbers.

Each subroutine is stronger than the original Cybertron.

For this group of silicon-based life forms, facing Carol's subprogram is almost the same as facing Carol herself.

Carol's power comes from the cosmic network.

Even level 9 silicon-based life may not be able to fight against the cosmic network as an individual.

It is for this reason that the silicon-based civilization Cyber ​​is very sensitive to Carol's existence.

Even if it was just a single operation to control the Death Star, the Cyber ​​civilization began to suspect Carol.

……

In the starry sky, a level 7 mecha quietly appeared.

Wang Fei has successfully arrived at the star field of Cyber ​​civilization.

The Empire's military is also directed here, but it is not the main battlefield for the time being.

The weakest Celestial civilization is the first target of the empire's destruction.

Weakness is the original sin, and justice lies in where the sword points.

The Empire and Cyber ​​civilization have not yet gone to war, but small-scale frictions have occurred from time to time.

The battle level is controlled below level 6, and high-level god-level combat power has not yet taken action.

The first step of Wang Fei’s plan was to increase the intensity of the local war.

We cannot wait until the collapse of the dominant civilization of the Celestial Empire before letting the empires declare war one after another. Otherwise, the space for fishing in troubled waters will be much smaller.

How to increase the intensity of local wars?
It's very simple, just cause enough damage.

As long as both sides suffer large-scale 6th-level god-level casualties, or high-level god-level casualties.

The intensity of the war will increase by several orders of magnitude in an instant.

Therefore, Wang Fei directly located the current position of the Empire's garrison. The location was very simple. As the owner of the cosmic network authority, as long as someone from the Empire was online and close enough to Wang Fei, Wang Fei could find the specific coordinates.

This is what’s so scary about the cosmic web.

A civilization without authority is like a blank sheet of paper in the eyes of those with authority.

……

A planet, a temporary base of the Empire.

Kuber, a Level 7 combat officer of the Empire, was wandering around the cosmic network out of boredom.

The war had not yet broken out in full force, and before the fall of the Celestial Empire's dominant civilization, there were hardly many battles to fight on the other fronts.

This is a highly social role-playing cosmic online game developed by an advanced civilization.

In the game, players will play the role of members of several fictional overlord civilizations.

The game supports free trade, and the price of a high-level spaceship is almost the value of a level 5 or even level 6 spaceship in reality.

In the game, Kuber is a wealthy man who controls thousands of high-end spaceships.

Reality level 7 gives Cooper unparalleled money power.

At this moment, Cooper is flirting with a player of the opposite sex.

According to Cooper's understanding, this person also came from the Vida Empire and was a member of the imperial nobility.

"Are you there, dear?"

"exist!"

"My father lost a lot in a gambling match with the commander of the Fifth Expeditionary Army yesterday and is in debt. Can you lend me some money?"

Cooper frowned slightly.

"If you don't agree, I can only agree to the marriage with the Kanla family..."

Cooper's eyes widened.

This is not possible!

I was so lucky to meet a lady from an imperial noble family.

It took more than a hundred years to develop the current relationship.

If I can succeed, I will have a chance to reach level 8 in the future!
With a grit of his teeth, Cooper directly agreed to this outrageous request to borrow money.

His impulse had made him forget that it was impossible for a true imperial noble to be short of money!

The in-game assets are packaged and transferred, and the cash storage of Vida Bank is remotely operated using the cosmic network.

After some operations, Cooper received a video.

The person who filmed the video seems to be a silicon-based life form: "Haha, stupid Imperial guy, I'll take your money! Come and hit me if you have the guts, I'm a level 6 god-level life form, haha..."

With a confused mind, Cooper realized that he had been deceived.

In a trance, Cooper began to recall a hundred years of true (licking) love (dog) real (life) experience…

Was I deceived from the beginning?

Suddenly, Cooper noticed that there was a planet in the background of the other person's selfie.

The planet is the one that I am hiding!
It turns out that this liar is actually a border patrol soldier from the Cyber ​​civilization!

"Level 6, right? Today I will make you my Level 6 combat hero!"

Cooper lost most of his sanity and jumped directly into the gravitational space, heading towards space.

……

"Took the bait."

Carol's voice appeared.

Wang Fei nodded. The poor Level 7 Empire didn't know that he was not actually deceived.

But Carol found out through the algorithm that the imperial noble lady had simultaneously hung more than a dozen similar low-ranking imperial officers.

Isn't it a way to help him get rid of his fantasy?
