What happened next was unpredictable.
After returning safely from General Du Klerman, Chu Nan contacted Supremacy Oville and mentioned this to her. Then, after Dong Fang and Supremacy Oville directly contacted each other, the entire matter quickly developed in a direction that many people had not expected.
Only three days later, Dong Fang brought a group of merchant representatives of the Earth Federation’s caravan and the representatives of the five great factions of Nightclub City to the base led by General Du Klerman. Then, after spending two days, the three sides finally signed a cooperation contract.
With this contract, the faction brought by General Du Klerman that was clearly related to the United States of Melaita had actually forcefully inserted itself into Nightclub City that was originally completely controlled by the five great factions.
Correspondingly, General Du Klerman and the Earth Federation’s caravan each provided a safe route to the five great factions, ensuring that their fleets could safely reach the United States of Melaita and the Earth Federation.
This way, both sides would take what they needed.
The United States of Melaita had stabbed a nail into Planet Leppler through General Du Klerman. The Earth Federation caravan had expanded a large market and had the possibility of leading to the Perseus Arm of the Treaty.
As for the five great factions, they could take the opportunity to extend their tentacles beyond Planet Leppler, as far as the United States of Melaita and the Earth Federation. They even had the chance to enter the surrounding countries. The benefits would only be greater.
Although there were bound to be countless difficulties in implementing this contract, according to Dong Fang,
“As long as the benefits are suitable, nothing is impossible.”
Compared to the signing of the contract between these three parties, the process of signing the other contract that was unrelated to the five great factions and the Earth Federation’s caravan seemed even more mysterious.
Under the personal appearance of Supremacy Oville, General Du Klerman and the Sand Eagle reached an accommodation. At the same time, they signed a cooperation contract with the Holy Mountain and the two sides would jointly support the reconstruction of the Rand Clan.
In these negotiations, Angie Prairie, who had originally only been lying beside Supremacy Oville, proposed a whimsical idea. That was to simply establish a government on Planet Leppler that was mainly made up of Rand people and nominally lead Planet Leppler.
This suggestion first caused an uproar, but it quickly obtained the agreement of all sides.
Even the five great factions of Nightclub City and the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, who had heard this news, expressed their support for this idea.
The reactions of all the factions were surprisingly consistent. It was really a rare scene on Planet Leppler.
Regarding this, the explanation Dong Fang gave was very simple.
“To put it bluntly, Planet Leppler was originally equivalent to a group of fish fighting for that bit of food in a fish pond. Now that our Earth Federation and the United States of Melaita have appeared, this group of fish has the possibility of jumping out of the fish pond and into the sea. Facing the almost endless amount of food in the sea and more ferocious big fish, it’s naturally more beneficial for them to form a group.”
Regarding this explanation, Chu Nan only complained.
“The fish in the pond are all freshwater fish. You’ll die if you jump into the sea.”
…
After sneaking more than 630 light-years from Planet Leppler to the outside of the spiral arm, he arrived at an extremely thin Star Field.
Although the population was thin because of its location, this Star Field was not very desolate. Instead, a large number of space fleets could be seen shuttling back and forth from time to time in the entire Star Field, looking busy.
If one looked carefully, one would discover that almost all these space fleets were ordinary commercial fleets. On them were the symbols of the famous trading companies in the various countries outside the Orion Arm.
It was this scene that made this Star Field extremely lively and prosperous.
The reason why such a prosperous scene appeared in this Star Field with a thin nebula was very simple. In the center of this Star Field, there was a special stargate.
Ever since this stargate was discovered thousands of years ago, it had become the only stargate that could reach the Perseus Arm from the outside.
Therefore, this stargate naturally became an important passageway to contact the Orion Arm and the Perseus Arm, and it quickly developed.
Although it was a little difficult to communicate with the Perseus Arm because the policy of the Erehuana Military Treaty Alliance was relatively closed, under the enthusiasm of the merchants, these difficulties were not a problem.
After thousands of years of development, this stargate had already become the main transfer station for trade exchanges between the outside of the Perseus Arm and the outside of the Orion Arm. Every day, or even every moment, countless trade fleets from the outside of the Orion Arm and the Perseus Arm arrived at the stargate and waited to pass through the stargate to enter another wider world.
After thousands of years of development, the stargate had long had a tacit rule that everyone agreed to. No matter where the caravan came from, they would obediently line up according to this rule and wait to pass through the stargate.
Under such circumstances, any caravan that dared to disturb the order would be despised and targeted by everyone. Therefore, no one dared to be rash.
However, today, the originally orderly team suddenly changed a little.
A caravan from the Vig Republic outside the Orion Arm finally waited for him to enter the stargate. He had just tidied up the fleet and was about to pass through the stargate when a strange thing suddenly happened.
Originally, although the space in the middle of the stargate was clearly different from the surrounding space, under normal circumstances, it would always remain calm, like water without wind or waves.
Only when a fleet passed through the stargate would it cause a spatial vibration and show spatial changes on the surface.
Generally speaking, when a fleet on the Orion Arm’s side planned to pass through the stargate, in order to avoid spatial abnormalities, the other side of the Perseus Arm would stop passing through the stargate in advance and give way to the fleet on the Orion Arm’s side for a period of time.
After so many years of development, this rule had long been fixed.
However, now, just as the caravan of the Vig Republic was about to pass through the stargate, the surface of the stargate rippled as if a stone had been thrown into the originally calm water.
The various merchant groups waiting quickly detected the abnormal change in the internal space of the stargate. Countless people could not help but mutter in their hearts.
Could it be that someone on the Perseus Arm was ignorant and cut the line at this moment?
If that were the case, as long as these daring fellows appeared later, they would definitely be severely punished by everyone.
However, at this moment, someone noticed that the abnormal spatial vibration in the stargate was clearly different from when ordinary fleets passed through the stargate. Not only were the ripples much smaller, but the range of effect was also very small. From all kinds of data, it was impossible to imagine that such a small fleet would pass through the stargate at this time.
Everyone looked at the stargate in confusion, not knowing what had happened.
They did not wait long. Less than a minute after the abnormality appeared on the surface of the stargate, a figure suddenly appeared in the middle.
Seeing this scene through the monitoring equipment of their respective spaceships, everyone gasped.
The body passed through the stargate!
It was actually a Star-Grade Martial Artist!
