Chapter 576 The Diplomatic Mission Was Intercepted and Killed (1)
The loss of one node is not terrible, but it is terrible to set up countless nodes in the main universe.
And once the natural disaster civilization is launched, this plan must be laid out continuously, and the loss of a large number of nodes will drag down the economy of the natural disaster civilization.
But I didn't expect that such a big mistake would appear during the transition plan.
After sailing in the universe for nearly 10 years, the delegation of Aiken civilization was ambushed and wiped out in a sparsely populated space, and no one survived.
If it weren't for the accidental arrival of an adventure group, no one would have discovered that the Aiken civilization delegation had suffered misfortune until the end of the conference.
Then more and more delegations were attacked, and most of them ended up being completely wiped out.
Some were even so miserable that they died without a complete corpse.
This frightened many small civilizations.
They were caught in a dilemma. They had to attend the conference, but both roads were blocked. If they used the information network to transmit, their souls would be lost and they would not achieve their goals.
Sending a delegation would be robbed and killed, and they would also not achieve their goals.
This is really a case of "there is a wolf in front and a tiger behind".
The ruler of Aiken civilization kept pacing back and forth in the room. He could not find a way to solve the current dilemma.
The missing delegation package was not a big deal. After all, they worked for civilization and should be buried by civilization after death.
Although the bodies were not found, he could compensate the families of the people involved.
But what worried him was that if the second delegation was sent out now and met with an accident again, then they would not be able to attend this grand meeting.
"No, we can't just sit there and wait for death, Zuo Xiang, Zuo Xiang! You must gather ten delegations to set off at the same time and advance along different routes. We must arrive at the venue before the meeting. We cannot miss the meeting!"
The Zuo Xiang walked quickly and heard the ruler's speech. He broke into a cold sweat and said in a low voice: "Sir, time is running out."
"Too late? Then use the information network! Allow them to use it in some safe stages."
"This"
"Go quickly!" The ruler kicked the Zuo Xiang's leg. The Zuo Xiang did not dare to delay and ran out to inform the delegation to set off.
This is quite a lucky act.
As long as one of the ten delegations can successfully break through the enemy's interception, their civilization can enter this meeting.
If all of them are sacrificed, it will be the worst case.
But now for him, this is a result. Whether it is good or bad, he has to do it.
Because if there is a chance, he will not give up.
And the time when this happened was 263 years before the new natural disaster calendar, and the Aiken civilization discovered the problem 270 years ago.
By the time the news was confirmed and reached Luo Luo, 20 years had passed. In these 20 years, countless delegations were robbed and killed.
Most of the delegations of small and medium-sized civilizations have been robbed and killed.
Even some delegations of top civilizations have suffered various assassinations.
The leader of the Aiken civilization in the distant margin was miserable. 20 years later, Luo Luo was also racking his brains for this.
Seeing that the cosmic conference was about to be held, this kind of thing happened, and this incident has lasted for more than ten years. Luo Luo has reason to believe that someone has been planning this matter since a long time ago.
If he had received the news before this, and cleared these demons and monsters on the route as soon as possible, then it would not be a fatal problem for the conference.
The key is that the time left for him to deal with the problem is too short, not enough for a round trip.
If the problem is discovered early, then Luo Luo can send people to carry virtual network nodes to the remote galaxies to lay a main road, and then let them reach the main road and use the virtual network to hold meetings.
This is much more convenient than information network security and sending out envoys.
But now there is no time. The time that has passed is far more than the time to lay the main road. It can be said that a great opportunity has been wasted.
Of course, this cannot be blamed on Luo Luo.
He had such an idea at the beginning.
Although it was not expected that someone would intercept the envoys on a large scale at the beginning, it is normal to have some accidents on such a long journey.
If all virtual networks are used for virtual meetings, it will not only be safe and efficient, but also will not affect their daily work.
But there were two reasons that prevented Luo Luo from doing so.
One is that the technology for setting up ultra-long-distance virtual networks is not yet mature.
This technology was developed and researched by the 058 Innovation Laboratory.
It has been promoted and applied during the cantilever universe period.
But the gap between the cantilever universe and the main universe is like a cloud of mud.
This technology is not suitable for such a large range of the main universe, so it needs to be upgraded, but the 058 Innovation Laboratory has many research projects and few people can be assigned to this technology, so this project was delayed until the 276th year of the New Calamity Calendar before it was successful.
Another reason is the obstruction of other civilizations.
Just like when Rollo just launched the virtual network during the cantilever universe period, other civilizations are also very vigilant about the virtual network.
If you want to open up the main vein of the virtual network and lay it to the edge universe, then all the civilizations in the middle must pass through, and they must agree to this plan, so the workload here can be imagined.
It was precisely because of these two reasons that Luo Luo shelved this idea at the time.
It was too late to restart now.
The Goddess of Wisdom knocked on the door and Luo Luo, who was thinking hard inside, felt her presence, but did not say anything.
In fact, the intelligence department was originally working under the command of the Goddess of Wisdom. The Goddess of Wisdom was originally in charge of the education of the entire civilization and part of the scientific research. It was only a temporary act to assign the intelligence department to her.
After all, this was just a transitional department, but there was obviously a problem with the management of the Goddess of Wisdom, and the intelligence department did not play its due role.
"Luo Luo, I have checked it out."
The Goddess of Wisdom took a deep breath and said slowly.
"What is the problem? Are they really careless, or are there people who neglect their duties, or are there external forces that have infiltrated our civilization to confuse our eyes and ears?"
"None of them."
"None of them?!" Luo Luo suddenly raised his head and looked at the Goddess of Wisdom in confusion.
After hearing about this accident, his first reaction was the three reasons he asked above.
The Goddess of Wisdom also thought of the same question at the first time, so she immediately went down to investigate to see who dared to deceive the gods and dared to deceive civilization.
The Goddess of Wisdom said with an unpleasant expression: "It's not their problem. The root cause lies with those civilizations that have problems."
