Black Technology Research Center

Even if the focus wasn't primarily on them, the resources Mobius civilization invested internally were extremely powerful. To put it simply, the resources they invested in these areas were comparable to those currently invested by humanity. Their scale is much larger than Earth, so these resources weren't considered a significant investment for them.

That's indeed the case. If it weren't for Fang Yuan's presence, even with these resources, it would have been impossible to successfully develop these technologies. At this point, it becomes clear what a powerful scientist means to a civilization. Therefore, if this war truly escalates into a full-scale conflict, Fang Yuan's safety will be guaranteed.

No one is willing to waste such a scientist. Even the Mobius civilization would treat Fang Yuan as a distinguished guest. It just depends on Fang Yuan's attitude. If Fang Yuan consistently refuses to cooperate, even if they are reluctant, they would rather eliminate him if they can't obtain him.

But regardless, compared to ordinary people, Fang Yuan can expect good treatment even after Earth's destruction. If he's willing, he could even live better. Wait, humanity is currently in the dominant position, why am I thinking about such pessimistic things?

Both sides are actively preparing for war, and Fang Yuan feels a sense of relief. In small-scale battles, if the Star Rail combined with the exoskeleton mech forces can't compete with the enemy, the outcome will be the same even if it extends to a full-scale war. However, Fang Yuan doesn't believe the enemy can easily defeat them.

Let's put it this way, in terms of defensive capabilities, the exoskeleton mech forces, enhanced by the Star Rail, can definitely handle most scenarios. If the enemy still uses the same weapon in small-scale battles, they will have nothing to say. Not to mention anything else, using that kind of weapon at this distance is nothing more than a suicidal tactic.

As a civilization whose overall strength far exceeds ours, even if it's just a small fraction of Mobius civilization's power, they wouldn't choose such a tactic. In fact, even if they did choose this tactic, we can strengthen our defensive capabilities immediately. The idea of mutual destruction isn't accurate.

Perhaps our losses would be significant, but the enemy's losses would definitely be greater. Fang Yuan is still confident in this point. After all, his years of hard work have been focused on defense. It would be too embarrassing if he couldn't even achieve this.

It's not just Fang Yuan who has confidence in his defense system, everyone has this confidence. Apart from antimatter bombs, there's no other weapon on Earth that can threaten the defense system created by Fang Yuan. Even with the weapon used by the Mobius civilization last time, they believe that the Star Rail's defensive capabilities are more than enough to withstand several consecutive attacks.

If the enemy's attack frequency isn't high, it can even withstand more attacks. The key is that the Star Rail's defense coverage is too broad. If we knew which location the enemy was going to attack, Fang Yuan dares to guarantee that the enemy would have no way to break through the Star Rail's defense.

It's a pity that no one knows this except Doris himself. Perhaps Doris himself doesn't even know which location to start from. But this life-sustaining planet in front of him is truly beautiful! Apart from being slightly smaller in size, other aspects seem to faintly surpass the Mobius homeworld. If the opponent wasn't really troublesome, Doris would definitely not give up so easily.

After all, as long as he occupies this planet, it will be under his jurisdiction before he passes away. Nominally, he's a member of the Mobius civilization, but in reality, he has the potential to become a king. However, no Mobius person would choose to do this, but being a local emperor is not a problem.

The key is that this local emperor is also qualified to compete for the position of supreme commander. This is enough to be tempting, but Doris quickly dismissed the idea. The current problem isn't whether he wants to, but whether he can, or rather, whether he's wary of the other civilization having other tricks up their sleeve.

Leaving aside everything else, even if he breaks through the current war fortress, as long as this civilization has a sufficient number of entities similar to the mech forces in front of him, it would be enough to give him a headache. Moreover, he doesn't believe that this is all of the opponent's power. Pushing the opponent into a corner isn't a good approach.

That's why he agreed to this small-scale war, to see what extent the opponent can go to. If the opponent's abilities are recognized by them, then the previous agreement can officially take effect. If it's just empty words, then Doris wouldn't be soft-hearted.

Of course, this is also because he can obtain unmanned warship technology regardless of whether he wins or loses. To be honest, they can also create simple unmanned warship technology, but last time, they encountered unmanned warship groups with tactics and autonomous adaptability, which they couldn't achieve.

I don't know how human civilization did it. Sure enough, the direction of Mobius civilization's development is too distorted. Years of war have created a huge gap between their basic technology and war technology. If they had followed normal development, they should be able to do what's in front of them now.

However, the allocation of resources, coupled with the policies above, isn't something they can oppose. If Doris becomes the supreme commander of the Mobius civilization, he would definitely improve these shortcomings. The war with the Alau civilization can't be ended in a short time.

Even if they can really defeat the opponent, the Mobius civilization wouldn't do so. Knowing when to stop is important. The power behind the opponent is something they simply can't handle. Doris is clear about the consequences of pushing too hard, let alone the supreme command.

If it weren't for this reason, they wouldn't be at a disadvantage on the main battlefield. In fact, most of the factors here are Mobius people deliberately concealing their strength, only ensuring that the other party doesn't pose a threat to them. This kind of concealment, although it can't fool higher civilizations, is also sending a signal.

Telling the other party, we can't afford to offend you, but we still have the power to resist. As for those higher civilizations, they invest so much in the Alau civilization just to extract resources from them every year. To ensure the harmonious development of cosmic civilizations, higher civilizations are generally not allowed to invade other civilizations.

That's why these guys seem so calm. In reality, which one isn't secretly supporting their own forces, cultivating lackeys to do things that they can't conveniently do themselves? The Alau civilization is just one of them, perhaps barely considered the strongest lackey they control!

They must have at least five or even ten lackeys of this level, and there may even be more powerful lackeys. Among these lackeys, there may also be one who can ascend to a higher civilization. They don't completely reject these lackeys from becoming one of them.

However, the resources are limited. Even if the universe is still evolving, becoming a member of a higher civilization is still a difficult task. However, there are also a group of higher civilizations that are truly detached from the world, possessing great power but never participating in such things, and in principle, still following the principle of equivalent exchange.

So, the biggest mastermind in this universe is these higher civilizations. Their existence, for some weaker civilizations, is a group of vampires, greedy and powerful, making it impossible for them to resist. They clearly know that if these people continue to suck their blood, their ending will be miserable.

But there's no way to refuse, which is the most tragic thing. In the end, weakness is the original sin. To get rid of this situation, you just need to become stronger than them. As for whether you will become a new vampire after becoming stronger than them, it depends on whether you can maintain your original intention until the end.

Anyway, if it were Fang Yuan, even if he became stronger, he wouldn't become like this. Think about it this way, with the progress of technology, what could a piece of iron do before? It could only be made into a weapon, which was the most powerful weapon. But what about now? It can become a component in a thermal weapon, and its power has increased by countless levels.

Therefore, the utilization rate of resources is constantly increasing. The so-called equivalent exchange is relative. In the eyes of the other party, it is indeed an equivalent exchange, but in our eyes, we don't know how much we have earned. In this way, we only pay a small price and obtain the resources we want.

Isn't this method good? Do we have to fight and kill? Is there no other way to develop besides invasion? That's not the case. It's just that compared to other methods, invasion is the simplest and most effective method. Since there's a simple method, why choose those complicated methods?

Otherwise, why would they say that as long as there's a shortcut, no one is willing to take the main road? Even if they clearly know that the shortcut may not lead to the destination in the end, taking the main road, even if the process is a bit difficult, will definitely lead to the destination in the end. But in the end, there are always only a few people walking on the main road.

Fang Yuan is trying his best to guide human civilization onto the right path. If he didn't have this ability, there would be nothing to say. But the current fact is that he has this ability, so why not make good use of it? Do we have to wait until things have developed to the point where they can't be reversed before taking action to correct them? At that time, even he would find it difficult to correct them.

Fang Yuan is very clear about this. Therefore, at the beginning, he allowed humans to have the correct path of technology. He is quite satisfied with this, but there are still some mistakes. Just like at this time, when facing Mobius civilization, they only have the power to defend, but it's impossible to attack.

If he had foreseen this from the beginning, he wouldn't be so passive now. No, he should have foreseen it, but he still underestimated his opponent. The Star Orbit can indeed serve as a barrier, but it's not unbreakable.

If one day the defensive capabilities of the Star Orbit are sufficient to withstand all attacks, there will be no need to develop any weapons. We can just watch the enemy attack from the outside. The problem now is that humanity can't just have Earth as its only home. Are we going to turn every place humans go into an impregnable fortress like Earth?

Even if it were possible, how much effort would it take? How many resources would it consume? How much manpower and material resources would be required for subsequent maintenance? Humanity hasn't developed to that stage yet; every resource must be used efficiently.

Even a fully terraformed planet won't be as resource-rich as Earth. Of course, in some aspects, it might be even richer than Earth, but it will never become a second Earth. Everyone is clear on this point. These terraformed planets are more for supporting Earth and making it better.

Like the Mobius civilization, even with more than a dozen inhabited planets, isn't the Mobius homeworld still the most important? The other planets are more like guards around the homeworld, providing a safe environment at all times, not just for safety but also to make the homeworld stronger.

If Fang Yuan saw the Mobius homeworld, he would definitely be shocked. In comparison, Earth is like a country bumpkin. Of course, Earth's environment is more suitable for life, but it hasn't been enhanced.

If this were a game, Earth would be a newbie with all-white equipment, while the Mobius homeworld could be considered fully equipped with purple gear. Just one step further, and it would have legendary equipment. So, the two are not in the same league and there's no value in comparing them.

Precisely because of this, Doris wants to possess Earth even more. After all, in terms of potential, he believes this planet has potential no less than the homeworld. If it were just a little bigger, it would definitely surpass the homeworld. But there's no such thing as perfection, and his demands aren't high. It's a pity that he can't even conquer Earth now.

What he doesn't know is that once he misses this opportunity, it won't be easy to do anything to Earth in the future. With Fang Yuan around, when he returns in ten years, he won't be able to look down on Earth anymore but will have to look at them eye to eye.

If he comes back in another thirty years, he will have to look up to Earth. Even if it can't advance to a higher civilization, Earth will be the strongest among the intermediate civilizations. This is absolutely guaranteed. Of course, all this confidence comes from Fang Yuan, so the biggest task for these people now is to ensure Fang Yuan's safety.

As long as Fang Yuan is still around, humanity can maintain its development speed. If he's gone, after humanity digests the changes he brought, it will also usher in a period of rapid development. This is an inevitable trend. The more changes Fang Yuan brings, the stronger the subsequent explosion will be.

Everyone has an expectation for this. To be honest, the academic community no longer wants to comment on what level Fang Yuan can reach. Every time they think Fang Yuan has reached his limit, this guy always manages to bring them new surprises.

It's as if the word 'limit' doesn't exist at all. In reality, they also know that even Fang Yuan has his limits. No matter how strong one person's power is, it can only speed up the progress of civilization. Everyone must keep up for the civilization to reach an unattainable height.

Therefore, they are not afraid of the Mobius civilization. In their eyes, they are just a bunch of robbers wielding knives and clubs. Their strength is only temporary. One day, they will surpass these people and rub these robbers into the ground.
