Global Mutation: Opening with Swallowing a Black Mamba-Chapter 373 - 374: Cooper Star Source! Congreve’s Extravagant Reward!

Chapter 373: Chapter 374: Cooper Star Source! Congreve’s Extravagant Reward!

Cooper Star Cluster, Supreme Leader’s Hall.

Leader Congreve of Cooper Star Cluster warmly welcomed Gu Qijue to take a seat.

Before the war began, the Cooper Star Cluster had more than ten all-weather strategic partners.

However, as the Klein People launched a massive invasion, these strategic partners faced various issues.

Anyway, up to now, the Cooper Star Cluster hasn’t seen their aid.

Under such circumstances, Gu Qijue’s timely arrival made everyone in the Cooper Star Cluster immensely grateful.

After being invited to the Supreme Leader’s Hall, Gu Qijue bluntly said: "Leader Congreve, tell us about the current situation."

Originally, Congreve wanted to exchange pleasantries with Gu Qijue, but since he was direct, Congreve decided to be straightforward as well.

"Sigh..."

Congreve first let out a deep sigh, then began to shed tears.

Seeing this scene, Gu Qijue could only be stunned.

Obviously, not every Star Cluster-level Civilization leader is a steely commander.

Leader Congreve, much like King Liu Bei of Shu, frequently shed tears and couldn’t speak.

The corpulent Leader Congreve was as sorrowful as a 200 kg child, leaving Ma Nan, Minister of Combat for the Cooper Star Cluster, to explain the details to Gu Qijue.

In front of Ma Nan appeared the real-time star map of the Cooper Star Cluster.

Pointing at the holographic star map, he said: "Your Excellency Gu, this is the real-time star map of the Cooper Star Cluster."

"The red area is the battle zone, the blue area is the safe zone."

Gu Qijue’s gaze fell upon this holographic star map, immediately realizing that the Cooper Star Cluster was in a critical survival crisis.

When he set out, the news he received was that half of the Cooper Star Cluster had been occupied.

It hasn’t been long, and now three-fifths of the Cooper Star Cluster Civilization’s regions are blood-red.

Calling these areas battle zones was merely putting a positive spin on it.

Except for the red and blue frontline, any battles in the other red zones were merely sporadic resistance.

In terms of the big picture, they didn’t even count as a drop in the bucket.

It’s no wonder Congreve sighed deeply and then shed tears.

Not long ago, Leader Congreve might have been enjoying a hotpot while singing, only to turn around and find half his realm lost.

In such situations, anyone in Leader Congreve’s position might shed tears.

Having seen the holographic star map of the Cooper Star Cluster, Gu Qijue immediately asked: "How does the Cooper Star Cluster plan to counter this war?"

Minister of Combat Ma Nan couldn’t answer this question either.

How can such a war be fought?

In less than a day, the Cooper Star Cluster’s Star Domain had lost three-fifths.

This indicates that when the Klein aim fully at a Star Cluster-level Civilization, these civilizations are as fragile as eggs.

The Vermilion Bird Star Cluster and the Qiongqi Star Cluster were lucky; as soon as the Klein showed intent, they received strong support from the Star Cluster Alliance.

So even now, the Vermilion Bird Star Cluster still holds steady, defending all its battlefields.

In the Supreme Leader’s Hall, Congreve continued to shed tears silently.

Ma Nan remained silent, having been the Minister of Arts before the original Minister of Combat died.

Although the highest level of commanding battle is known as commanding art, he only understood art, not command.

Not only did the Cooper Star Cluster’s Minister of Combat die, but almost all members of the combat department were wiped out.

Luckily, there was still a woman in the Supreme Leader’s Hall.

This woman was Diana, Minister of Energy for the Cooper Star Cluster Civilization.

Seeing both the leader and the new Minister of Combat remained silent, she could only begin:

"The Cooper Star Cluster Civilization currently has two choices."

"Firstly, the Cooper Star Cluster Civilization will orderly evacuate from the Cooper Star Cluster."

"Secondly, the Cooper Star Cluster will, under the powerful support of the Silver Flame Star Cluster Alliance, wage a final battle against the Klein."

Gu Qijue passed the ball to Diana, and Diana quickly passed it back to Gu Qijue.

On the surface, she mentioned two plans, but in reality, she was presenting two options to the Silver Flame Star Cluster Alliance.

Either they give full support to the Cooper Star Cluster, allowing it to hold on.

Or the Cooper Star Cluster Civilization will flee, and after the Klein ravage the Cooper Star Cluster, other star clusters will suffer.

After hearing Diana’s words, Gu Qijue smiled and said: "I am not asking this on behalf of the Silver Flame Star Cluster."

"What I want to know is what the Cooper Star Cluster needs me to do and what compensation will be offered."

Upon hearing this, Diana became anxious.

"Your Excellency Gu, the Cooper Star Cluster is in such a crisis right now; if all reinforcements require compensation like you..."

"The Cooper Star Cluster simply can’t afford it and will have to opt for interstellar escape."

After Diana spoke, the tearful Congreve rebuked: "Diana, do not be rude!"

Then he wiped his tears and said to Gu Qijue:

"Your Excellency Gu, the Cooper Star Cluster has two matters that require your help."

"The first is that the Cooper Star Source of the Cooper Star Cluster is under attack by the Klein."

"I hope Your Excellency Gu can help transfer these Cooper Star Source."

"The second is that the elite Cooper Crusaders are surrounded by the Klein."

"The Cooper Crusaders are basically all protecting the Cooper Star Source, so when you transfer the Star Source, please help them transfer as well."

"As for the reward, once Your Excellency Gu begins action, you will receive one billion E-Tier Energy Stones per minute. How does that sound?"

One billion E-Tier Energy Stones equals one million D-Tier Energy Stones.

This Cooper Star Source and Cooper Crusaders are obviously very important to the Cooper Star Cluster; otherwise, Congreve wouldn’t offer such a price.

Gu Qijue thought for a moment and said: "Besides the one billion E-Tier Energy Stones per minute, I want ten percent of the Cooper Star Source that my combat troops transfer."

Upon hearing this, Congreve’s expression instantly became quite peculiar.

He sincerely said: "The Cooper Star Source is equivalent to the embryos of the Cooper Race; what does Your Excellency Gu want this for?"

Gu Qijue couldn’t help but laugh at this.

He thought it was a special energy unique to the Cooper Star Cluster.

Who would’ve thought it was actually the next generation of the Cooper Race?

Upon hearing this, Gu Qijue could only say: "Since that’s the case, forget about it."

"Tell me the details so I can formulate a combat plan."

In the Supreme Leader’s Hall, Congreve managed to hold back his laughter and continued the conversation with Gu Qijue.

Ma Nan and Diana struggled to suppress their laughter.

Upon hearing Gu Qijue’s request, both found it amusing in their hearts.

Other things Gu Qijue could take would serve some purpose.

However, the Cooper Star Source could only be used by the Cooper Race, and Gu Qijue taking it was pointless.
