Deep Space Wandering Fleet

Chapter 337: Chapter 336 Alien Trial

Zhang Yuan sighed inwardly, opting not to dwell too much on the issue of the Virtual World being exposed—for now, it wasn’t the most pressing matter. He asked again, “How is the communication with the Badit people going? The public trial by the People’s Court is about to start, isn’t it?”

“The negotiations are going smoothly… They understand that the information they hold is critical for us. Only by proving their value can they hope to survive, and they are willing to disclose some important information. However, they demand better treatment and want us to assure their survival.”

“Assure? They still believe in that?” Zhang Yuan scoffed.

“Such assurances must be public, in the form of written commitments made in front of all the citizens… that is, lenience for some of their crimes stipulated in the court’s verdict.”

“How could that be possible? Even I don’t know what the court will ultimately decide.” Zhang Yuan pondered for a moment, then realized what the Badit people were really up to.

A civilization’s ability to establish itself in the cosmos greatly depends on its actionability and internal unity.

If a civilization constantly contradicts its own policies, how can it maintain any sense of cohesion?

Of course, the Badit people’s tricks were just minor ploys. First of all, the Human government would never make such a promise; secondly, even if the Human government suddenly went back on its word and executed them all, so what?
