Chapter 402 The Minister's Memorial: Slay the Three Bodies!

Luo Ji looked at the two guests in his home with a headache.

This guy devoured a huge pot of food—six meters tall—that Zhuang Yan had painstakingly cooked in one go. After finishing, it asked Zhuang Yan if there was any more, saying it wasn't full.

Zhuang Yan's spatula was almost smoking.

A creature six feet tall, its body shimmering with a faint bluish light, had already scorched the wooden floor. Worst of all, it wore a metal ring made of radium-226 to sustain its survival.
My son is still young and not a natural-born martial artist, so he can't withstand the radiation from radium-226. The maid has already taken him for a walk in the street.

These two guests were none other than Tyrannosaurus Rex, the ambassador of the Devouring Civilization, and Mushroom Forest, the leader of the Mushroom Civilization.

Luo Ji could understand why Da Ya came to find him, but this Mushroom Head was a complete stranger to him. If Luo Ji remembered correctly, this Mushroom Head had almost always stayed in Yunnan City, so it was really a rare thing for him to come to the North.

More importantly, every move this mushroom-head makes affects the diplomatic relationship between humans and mushrooms. If it weren't for the other party's firm attitude, Luo Ji really wouldn't want to pay attention to this mushroom that can only glow and can't speak human language.

"Um, Big Tooth Messenger." Luo Ji had already heard about the gluttonous behavior of this celebrity dinosaur, so he stopped Zhuang Yan from serving the dishes.

He's exhausted his wife to the point of exhaustion.

This fat dragon is just here to freeload.

"You've been eating for a while now, let's get down to business."

Because communicating with the mushroom-headed creature was inefficient, and the other party had to blink the binary code before the light language interpreter could translate it into human language, which was quite troublesome, Luo Ji decided to deal with this fat dragon first.

"That's how it is." Da Ya happily stuffed the pan-fried steak that Zhuang Yan had made—a super-sized pan-fried steak with a diameter of one meter—into his mouth. He was almost dizzy from the aroma, so fragrant that he couldn't open his eyes.

It also wants to find a female dragon who can cook, just like human insects.

“My uncle, chew chew chew, that’s it, chew chew chew, it’s the leader of our civilization, chew chew chew, its name is Karl, chew chew chew, you should know, chew chew chew, it’s a great dragon, chew chew chew, it told me to find you, chew chew chew…”

"You fucking swallow this meat before you speak." Luo Ji couldn't hold back any longer. His Foundation Establishment Ancestor aura suddenly erupted, startling Da Ya into swallowing the meat whole.

"Speak," Luo Ji said, his tone softening.

"Ahem, well, my uncle asked me to ask you if humanity has any plans for future development, like colonizing other star systems instead of being confined to the solar system. My uncle said that humanity is about to develop a light-speed spaceship, and we dragons also want to travel in light-speed spaceships to explore other star systems... You know, we dragons have been wandering in the universe for over 60 million years, and we're not really used to this settled life. We dragons still have a bit of an adventurous spirit."

Luo Ji replied with a hint of helplessness, "Who told you dinosaurs that humans are about to develop a spaceship that travels at the speed of light?"

Da Ya asked doubtfully, "My uncle said that you humans received warp drive technology as compensation from the Trisolarans, and you'll be able to build a light-speed spaceship soon."

Luo Ji retorted: "Your uncle... ptooey, Karl Ron has no idea about the situation of humanity. The research and practical application of warp drive technology is still far from being realized. I know that humanity has only just been able to make a strand of hair travel a few centimeters at the speed of light in the laboratory. Building a spaceship at the speed of light will be at least 100 years away."

Big Tooth nodded: "That's right, we'll have light-speed spaceships in 100 years, isn't that a very short time?"

The mushroom-headed guy next to him blinked twice in agreement.

Luo Ji: "..."

It seems that humans have a different concept of time than dinosaurs and mushrooms.

That makes sense. After all, the history of human lifespan extension is only a few decades, while the average lifespan of dinosaurs has long reached more than two hundred years, and mushrooms have a lifespan of thousands of years.

Compared to these long-lived species, nascent humans are clearly not yet adapted to a span of a century.

Luo Ji sighed: "To be honest, I don't know about humanity's plans for the future. Based on my understanding of the government, our government doesn't have the habit of designing a 100-year plan all at once. It usually takes small steps every five years, big steps every ten years, and super-big steps every twenty years. Nobody dares to talk about things 100 years from now."

Big Tooth asked doubtfully, "Even if you haven't thought about what will happen 100 years from now, you must have thought about going to other star systems, right? Are you planning to settle down in the solar system forever? The history of the dinosaurs taught us that a civilization that lives in a star system might not necessarily live long... What if we're unlucky and encounter the Dark Forest Strike?" What Big Tooth was saying was also Karl's concern. Although life in the solar system was comfortable, this settled life brought a serious sense of insecurity to Lungmen, who had been wandering for tens of millions of years.

Only when they were wandering among stars did the dinosaurs feel safe.

Big Tooth's words indicate that the dinosaurs were also aware of the Dark Forest attack. Luo Ji only guessed this later.

In the past, the main reason why the Devouring Empire could not devour a planet for more than 100 Earth years was because the dinosaurs wanted to eat quickly and decisively, for fear that their greed and prolonged eating would attract the Dark Forest's attack.

In the dinosaurs' understanding, nomadic civilizations were the best way to avoid attacks from the Hessian Empire.

Luo Ji sensed the super formation that covered the entire solar system and felt more confident. He said to Da Ya, "You dinosaurs don't need to worry about the Dark Forest attack. Humans have a way to deal with it."

Big Tooth scoffed disdainfully: "What can you human insects do? It's clearly the methods of God Luo Qing and God Dinosaur."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ji clenched his fists, wishing he could kick this incredibly low-EQ dinosaur out the door. However, considering that there were many reporters waiting outside the yard, and even members of the Big Tooth Lovers Association, he ultimately suppressed this dangerous thought.

"Whether we are humans or cultivators, we are all one. We do have a preliminary plan for the Dark Forest attack, so you don't need to worry about that. We will definitely explore other star systems in the future, but I estimate that humanity will need to develop within the solar system for at least another 500 years... After all, the solar system is not short of resources."

Da Ya nodded in deep agreement: "It's true that you don't lack resources, so what is your attitude towards the Trisolaran civilization?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Ji raised an eyebrow: "It seems that you dinosaurs have designs on the Trisolaran civilization."

Big Tooth nodded, acknowledging: "As the defeated, we dinosaurs are in a rather awkward position, I know that. But my uncle asked me to test you and ask if humanity has any intention of eradicating the Trisolaran civilization."

Cut the weeds and eliminate the roots?
Luo Ji's gaze towards the seemingly harmless fat dragon held a different meaning.

He asked, "What is Carlos Karlón thinking?"

Big Tooth slowly made a gesture on his neck with his short forelimbs.

kill.

Luo Ji nodded: "It seems you are more wary of the Trisolarans than we humans are."

Big Tooth said, "Now, the human insects and we dragons are one. The Trisolaran civilization consists of dehydrated insects. They have many evil intentions, and it would be safest to wipe them all out. Moreover, my uncle said that you humans are too indecisive. You haven't wiped out our dragons, and you even allow us dragons to live on Earth... Although we are very grateful, we are also worried that humanity's kindness will bring us big trouble."

Luo Ji sighed, "Whether or not we will completely annihilate the Trisolaran civilization is not something that human civilization can decide at this stage. The current human world can't even defeat the Trisolaran Second Fleet. However, I do know that Luo Qing may be going to the Trisolaran star system in the near future. I will relay your dinosaurs' thoughts to him."

Big Tooth put his two short forelimbs together and bowed twice to Luo Ji.

"That would be perfect. That's exactly why I came to see you. We dragons really hope to completely eliminate the Trisolaran civilization, otherwise we won't be able to sleep peacefully in the solar system."

Luo Ji agreed, and then looked at Mushroom Head.

"Mr. Lin, is there something you need from me?"

As Luo Ji spoke, his language was converted to binary, and the computer screen next to him, acting as an optical translator, flashed at an extremely fast frequency.

Soon, Lin Jun, who had received the light language, also started flashing. After a while, a line of text was translated on the computer.

[I, Chen Gu, also agree. We should exterminate the Trisolaran civilization as soon as possible, leaving no one alive.]
Luo Ji was stunned.
