"Your partner has been captured? How is that possible?" Hollandberg said in surprise.
Ziyu came here because Ziyu knew that a Squad had set its sights on him, which meant his companions were also in danger. The only one who could save them was Ziyu.
"Due to some coincidences, I ended up here, but I can't return to the Yufeng Universe Nation, so I need to seek temporary help here, and it is these Interstellar Wanderers who took me in," Ziyu said calmly. "I know that your Cosmic Kingdom and the Interstellar Wanderers are almost irreconcilable, but I hope you can show some leniency."
"I see..." Hollandberg was silent for a moment. "Alright, for Mr. Ziyu's sake, we will definitely release your friends."
Ziyu felt a sense of relief but still couldn't fully relax because Hollandberg had said it, but mere words were essentially useless; Ziyu needed to see his companions.
"Send the order down to release all the Interstellar Wanderers captured today. If there are any currently being captured, just let them escape; this is an order," Hollandberg commanded in front of Ziyu.
"I have one more question, though I'm not sure if I should ask," Ziyu looked at Hollandberg.
"Mr. Ziyu, your status is higher than mine; I'm just one of your subordinates. You can ask whatever you want," as Hollandberg said, Ziyu's status was indeed on par with the Sovereign of the Celestial Star Universe Nation.
"Uh... subordinate... that's a bit exaggerated; let's treat each other as equals," Ziyu thought Hollandberg was being overly modest.
"What I wanted to ask is why you respect me so much?" Ziyu had been curious about this since arriving and it was precisely why he had the courage to barge into headquarters with a Sergeant.
"This matter is a bit complicated and needs some explanation..." Hollandberg said.
It turned out that long ago, there had been connections between the Cosmic Kingdoms in this area. The Celestial Star Universe Nation, despite having a relatively high status, was slightly weaker than other similarly ranked Cosmic Kingdoms. Therefore, during decisions, the role of the Celestial Star Universe Nation was minimal, which led to dissatisfaction with other Cosmic Kingdoms.
However, despite this dissatisfaction, there was only one nation that truly held animosity towards the Celestial Star Universe Nation—Yufeng Universe Nation.
Celestial Star Universe Nation did not create new humans, and because of this, they have faced challenges.
Recently, Celestial Star Universe Nation learned about the independent rebellion of the new humans created by Yufeng Universe Nation, as well as the collective defection of Intelligence, which once again caused a rift between them.
However, the disadvantage of Celestial Star Universe Nation made other Cosmic Kingdoms unconsciously press down on them, leading to significant dissatisfaction from Celestial Star Universe Nation.
The Sovereign of Celestial Star Universe Nation greatly admired Ziyu and believed that what Ziyu said made sense: every species should have the right to survive. Coupled with the conflict between Celestial Star Universe Nation and Yufeng Universe Nation, this led Celestial Star Universe Nation to directly side with Ziyu.
Currently, only Celestial Star Universe Nation and Yufeng Universe Nation have expressed their positions.
Celestial Star stands with the new humans of Ziyu, while Yufeng is opposed to the new humans.
There has also been a subtle change among the Cosmic Kingdoms, gradually splitting into two factions.
One faction, led by Celestial Star, believes in providing enough territory for the new humans and that humans and new humans can develop together. The other faction, led by Yufeng Universe Nation, views new humans as a threat to humanity that needs to be eliminated.
"I see," Ziyu chuckled. Fortunately, he learned about this matter; otherwise, he would have considered all of humanity as enemies.
This way, the burden on the new humans has lessened considerably.
"Can I meet your Sovereign? I would like to talk with him," he said. Since the other party holds him in high regard, he should also honor their support.
"Of course," Hollandberg replied. "Our Sovereign informed us that once we discover new humans active in our Star Domain, we should treat them well. The leader of the New Human Planet is on par with us planet leaders, and you, Mr. Ziyu, are on the same level as our Sovereign."
Ziyu smiled awkwardly, "I feel quite honored."
"This must be Mechanical Life, and I assume being with Mr. Ziyu means that this person holds a significant position in Mechanical Life," Hollandberg said with a smile. "I'll report this right away."
A moment later.
"Mr. Ziyu, I apologize, but Sovereign is currently processing data and will be holding a meeting shortly. If you don't mind, you can follow me to Celestial Star Palace to wait," Hollandberg said respectfully.
"Alright, but please make sure to release my companions. I need to send them a message," Ziyu said as he indeed sent a message to his companions.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Celestial Star, the palace.
There was no doubt that Celestial Star was significantly more advanced than the previous planet, at least in terms of the technological feel of its architecture.
Ziyu waited in this palace for two hours, but fortunately, the service here was top-notch, with plenty of entertainment facilities that kept him from feeling bored.
"Mr. Ziyu, I apologize for keeping you waiting," a gentle voice with a hint of masculinity said. Ziyu looked over to see a slightly plump man.
This man was Roji, the Sovereign of the Celestial Star Universe Nation.
"Roji Sovereign, you are too kind; it is only right that I wait for you," Ziyu replied politely.
"Roji Sovereign... I'm curious, how do you communicate among your Cosmic Kingdom?" After some small talk, Ziyu finally asked about his lingering question.
"I've heard that Mr. Ziyu is a person of very high intelligence, so I'll speak plainly; I believe you will understand completely..." Roji Sovereign showed no signs of hiding or concealing anything.
It turns out that the principle of constructing a wormhole is to distort space, bending it into a U-shape, so that traveling between the two ends of the U is closer than traveling through the U itself. This method is relatively basic, and the reason wormhole technology has not been replaced is that constructing a wormhole saves a lot of energy. Therefore, as long as it is not an urgent matter, constructing a wormhole is sufficient.
However, the vastness of the universe means that constructing wormholes can no longer meet everyone's needs. With the development of technology, the requirements for spatial jump distances have become increasingly high. Humanity has always been eager to challenge things that seem impossible.
After long-term research, a new technology was finally developed one hundred thousand years ago—Spatial Folding Jump.
This method is an upgraded version of wormhole construction. It likens space to a sheet of paper; while a wormhole forms a U-shape, spatial folding completely folds it over.
The application of spatial folding has enabled true zero-distance communication between Cosmic Kingdoms. This function is also widely used in communications, though it is limited to the higher-ups of Cosmic Kingdom. After all, this technology differs from wormhole construction; it consumes too much energy.
"Then there must be distance limitations on this spatial folding as well..." Ziyu still felt somewhat puzzled but quickly realized.
A single fold in space certainly cannot be infinite. One can imagine a long strip of paper that can only be folded at a certain distance from one end; how could one make the end of the paper touch this end?
That’s where repeated folding comes in—by folding multiple times, one can achieve long-distance transmission.
"I want this technology... I wonder if Mr. Roji could..." Ziyu chuckled shyly.
