Trading Cosmic Battleship From The Start

This is why Shen Shi said that ultimately, all confrontations will return to strength itself.

Time Crystal is his greatest strength.

Although Time Crystal cannot be directly manifested, it can still become an external power in other ways, just like the existence of Star Sea.

After all, a force that possesses knowledge, capabilities, and even a variety of devices will cause no one to doubt the existence of Star Sea.

Under Shen Shi's foresight into the future and even intentional guidance, he has successfully tilted the current situation towards the outcome he wishes to see.

—Emperor Ji has already admitted his defeat this time.

And he has reaffirmed the status of Star Sea, or Shen Shi.

There's no need to say more.

Just with this overwhelmingly powerful Primordial Energy Technology, combined with the status that Shen Shi holds, Star Sea already has the qualification to directly confront Emperor Ji on the battlefield of Human Civilization.

Therefore, this failure for Emperor Ji is not entirely unforgivable. Though he lost and failed to attain the status of Standing Member, adding many obstacles for himself, he has discovered the enemy before him, which, compared to greater failures, is still acceptable.

"Alright, I admit it," Emperor Ji said once again, "Previously, I thought that casually bringing some benefits to humans should be adequate. After all, humans are really too weak; the growth from the past 5,000 years of development can be easily surpassed with just a trivial offering from me. However, now with your presence, humanity indeed will become a crucial battleground, and I will truly integrate into Human Civilization, sparing no effort to let Human Civilization obtain the greatest benefits."

"You should understand." Shen Shi's emotion returned to calm at this moment, "Your credibility has already collapsed; at least at this moment, no one will easily believe what you say."

"I know, so I will use actual actions to prove it, starting from the next agenda—I will integrate all the warships, entire population, all devices, and even all the knowledge I control into Human Civilization, and respect the rules and rights of Human Civilization. Such action, I think, should be enough to prove what I say." Emperor Ji threw out an action that no one could refuse.

At this point, he indeed only has two choices.

To jump out and abandon the identity as a human, but judging by the current situation, it will be very hard to obtain the recognition of the Relic Device, let alone further excavate the secrets of the Relic Civilization.

So, he is left with only one choice.

That is to truly integrate into humanity.

Without reservation!

At least until he gets everything he wants, he must have no reservations; only thus can he achieve an equal status with Shen Shi. Thinking of giving something casually for a desired status, as before, is already impossible.

Regarding this, the other members also became quite excited, and even some were uproarious.

To be honest, although previously they were angry at Emperor Ji's dismissive attitude towards humans, they never fantasized that Emperor Ji and his formidable forces would truly join Human Civilization.

The difference between annexation and being annexed is simply about which party takes the lead, right?

According to Emperor Ji's current statement, it means that these members will also have the qualification to mobilize the immensely powerful forces that Emperor Ji joins in!

This is truly helping the whole Human Civilization, rather than controlling the entire Human Civilization—as Shen Shi has done for thousands of years.

As for Shen Shi?

He naturally has no objections, because his goals have been achieved.

Under the current circumstances, they not only obtained all the forces behind Emperor Ji but also truly have the ability to use and the qualification to mobilize. Only by achieving this goal can Shen Shi use Emperor Ji's things to assist other world lines!

"If you had done this sooner, today you would be qualified to become a Standing Member." Shen Shi said calmly, "But considering your credibility has already collapsed, now you must wait until you truly accomplish everything you say to have that qualification."

"It's merely insufficient information." Emperor Ji showed a very free and easy demeanor.

As if he did not put today's major blunder in his heart at all.

Shen Shi believed that this was not a pretense.

This being who comes from an A-level Civilization is definitely not some incompetent role; for him, as long as the purpose can be achieved, everything else does not matter. Not taking these things out before was simply because previously he saw no need.

However, there are still many confrontations to come.

Owning several world lines and having Time Crystal as a trump card, the appearance of Emperor Ji is simply an unprecedented opportunity for Shen Shi, and Shen Shi is also confident to seize this opportunity completely!

"Start the next agenda..." Shen Shi skipped the topic, seemingly concluding it.

And following this, Emperor Ji and those newcomer members, one by one, appeared to be genuine human members, participating actively in various issues raised in the meeting, even opting for human interests without hesitation when conflicts arose with their past interests.
