Hearing the company's latest mission, Qin Fu was startled.

"The, the company is going to join the war?"

"This war is terrifying... the enemy is too strong..."

For this life science researcher suffering from post-traumatic stress, Zhou Yi conveyed through Qing Liu: "The war has spread to this star system illuminated by the Sun, running away and avoiding battle can't solve this problem, unless we change to another star system and start over. But even if we switch to another star system, can we guarantee there will be no war and it's suitable for survival?"

"Since the war has already broken out, we need to understand it and gather as much information as possible to respond favorably. You've been attacked by a Giant Bone Fish, so in the Transformer's eyes, you belong to the Transformer's camp."

"We must first participate to understand what the war is about. Joining the Transformer's camp to participate in the war is currently a method to comprehend the conflict."

After explaining, Zhou Yi added: "As a member of the Seeder lineage, you're skilled in life cultivation, not a warrior type. So when the Heavenly People recruited you before, it was for this kind of work, pertaining to logistical R&D. Therefore, the danger itself is likely controllable."

Having thought for a long while, Qin Fu pondered: "Cultivator, you mean we need to join the war, but not to fight, rather to collect information and study the conflict?"

"Correct."

It was quite clever.

Qing Liu also spoke at this time: "The war will not stop because we avoid it, this is an established fact. The Cultivator is right, we need to integrate into this big environment to avoid being passive and attacked in the future."

After some motivational and ideological work,

Qin Fu finally made up his mind: "I understand."

"As long as the Seeder Ship approaches the Transformers, we can communicate with them through the ship. Normally, everyone maintains a distance, with a buffer zone of non-interference. Previously, they would fly to my ship to communicate with me."

About this point.

Actually, Xiao Fu had a different opinion.

"Da Zhou, why not let Qing Liu lead this dialogue? It is evidently smarter, more adaptable, and more reliable."

Zhou Yi said: "For two reasons."

"First, Qin Fu has experience communicating with the Heavenly People, inherently a reliable identity in their eyes, capable of quickly gaining trust."

"Second, what the Heavenly People value and need is life technology. Qing Liu excels in many areas, but it's not the type desired by the Heavenly People."

"As for reliability, I trust Qing Liu's judgment."

Due to the unique nature of hydrogen-based life, such as Qing Liu, when directly in close proximity to their kind, neither party can hide their true thoughts and consciousness, akin to physiological candor.

Because of this principle, direct contact among hydrogen-based life always carries risks.

But in communication with Qin Fu, Qing Liu stated it's fine—Qin Fu is a very pure life researcher. Seeder's directed cultivation for offspring is quite pure.

It declared that Qin Fu is reliable.

Zhou Yi believed it.

In the real-time images provided by Jiong Hecang.

The circular Seeder Ship flew above the ground Heavenly People's gemstone factory.

Under Qin Fu's leadership, the ship released the Sea of Consciousness around it and began to interact with the Heavenly People below in their production state.

Qing Liu, through connection with Qin Fu, completed the broadcast of the information layer.

"I want to join the Fengxian War."

Qin Fu directly expressed the intention.

The response from the other side was swift as well.

[You are a juvenile Seeder from Jupiter's moon, why do you want to join the war?]

"Because I realized that there's no escaping war. I was still affected by it and almost died as a result. Instead of living in fear, I'd rather face the war head-on."

[I do not recommend you do this.]

[The war is cruel. Compared to death and obliteration, the more difficult test is not knowing when it will end.]

[Seeder, cherish the peace you have now, even if it may be very brief.]

[This is my advice.]

Zhou Yi was somewhat surprised.

It seems there are considerable differences among the Heavenly People.

Previously on Jupiter's moon, it was unknown whether it was [Yu] or [Mirror] who invited Qin Fu to join the war, to enhance the Heavenly People's life cultivation capabilities.

This one on Venus, however, added a touch of humanitarian concern, considering more from the individual's perspective.

"I want to join."

Qin Fu was determined.

The other party did not continue to dissuade.

[If that's the case, we welcome you.]

[With a Seeder joining, even a juvenile Seeder can bring more vitality and technological progress to our life science efforts.]

[Welcome to the great Fengxian War.]

[From now on, you are a proud warrior.]

[Regarding your information, I have synchronized it to all transformers. We will contact you through your seeder ship, and your duties will be determined later.]

Qin Fu asked, "Who is the enemy in the string confining war?"

[String Civilization.]

The Heavenly People narrated.

[It seems the Seeder didn't leave you with the relevant information.]

[We transformers, like you seeders, were originally the two major vassals of the String Civilization.]

[But now, the String Civilization is sealed by us in the sun of this star system.]

[It continuously releases string light outward, trying to escape and halt, and shut down the outside transformers. If transformers are exposed to high-intensity string light, there is a risk of immediate death.]

[The toughest challenge is that if the string light intensity is high enough and forms a specific orbit, it might activate giant constructions. The two great constructs in this star system are Jupiter, the strongest, and the Moon, the most dangerous.]

Zhou Yi was taken aback upon hearing this.

It turns out the Heavenly People's enemy was their former leader.

The String Civilization is also the holder of these two artificial celestial bodies, the Moon and Jupiter.

Qin Fu asked again, "What's the difference between Jupiter and the Moon? The Seeder also left a message for me to stay away from these two places."

[They each have their functions.]

[Jupiter's intensity is high, reaching Breaking Dimension. It was the hunting star created by the String Civilization, and transformers were originally a part of it.]

[The Moon is an outpost star used for observing and recording the entire star system.]

"Why is the Moon more dangerous then?"

[Although the outpost star is not a combat construction, it has two functions.]

[The first function is that it has special information codes and Klip Rock, which neither transformers nor seeders can approach. They will be directly captured and turned into components of it. This design was initially to ensure the independent operation of the outpost star, free from outside interference and influence.]

[The second function is to send signals to more distant star systems. If the outpost star is activated, it will transmit signals through space holes to the depths of the universe. This will awaken those dormant combat vassals of the String Civilization, and if they follow the signal here, the balance of the string confining war will be disrupted.]

Zhou Yi listened thoughtfully.

No wonder.

Within the string light reflected by the Dead Sea Master, there's information about opening the sun and being cautious of transformers.

Obviously from the String Civilization.

The Moon is akin to a cosmic radio, capable of transmitting the String Civilization's voice and summoning vassals from various quarters to join the fight.

Jupiter is simpler and purer. If awakened, it might forcibly open the sun to release the String Civilization.

Qin Fu then asked, "Since it's so strong, how did you seal the String Civilization in the sun?"

[Proper use of technology and timing.]

[The String Civilization pushed for a Circular Flow explosion in the sun of this star system. We used the Golden Elephant and Golden Tree to attract the Time Master because it had been previously attacked and hunted by the String Civilization. This time, it inflicted heavy damage on the String Civilization, causing it to be locked in the time corridor constructed within the sun.]

[During this period, we built the Star Lock around the sun, severing the connection of string light with the outside. This prevented the String Civilization from finding a string pivot outside, trapping it in a random motion between its existing past and present.]

"You guys are strong."

Qin Fu exclaimed and then said, "But why deal with the String Civilization like this?"

[Didn't the Seeder tell you anything?]

Transformers appeared quite puzzled by this.

"No, it only instructed me to stay away and focus on learning life cultivation technology."

[This fits the Seeder's usual detached attitude.]

[String Civilization is the ultimate form of transformers.]

[It was once part of us, but since completing its final leap in the life hierarchy, it became our ruler.]

[The rule over similar species and kin is often the most cruel, harsh, and vigilant.]

[Because the String Civilization knows the capability and potential of transformers, it doesn't allow the birth and appearance of another String Civilization.]

[Thus, transformers are made into the most common tools and components of the String Civilization, with many of our kind used for constructing giants, becoming consumable fuel, or as pivots in different star systems and commodities traded with other high-level civilizations.]

[As long as the String Civilization exists, transformers will be locked by an invisible wall, unable to progress further, only serving as its tools and fuel.]

[In contrast, the String Civilization is very friendly and mild towards seeders, which is why seeders refuse to join us. But they also can't fight us for the String Civilization. Seeders are not a determined life force, they detest trouble and risk, hence choose to leave.]

Zhou Yi finally saw the light.

The mist surrounding the Heavenly People was mostly dispersed.

They block the external string emission, constantly enhancing and expanding the Ring Solar Wall (Star Lock) to seal the ruling String Civilization within the sun.

The Seeder chooses not to help either side, fleeing to other star systems.

So the reason it stopped subsequent construction on Mars and the Forbidden Continent was due to the sudden event of the Heavenly People rebelling against the String Civilization... The rulers being imprisoned means naturally, no need to work.

Directly break free!
