Level 3 civilization

Earthling had now under them all the territories of the Faran empire and the Shima federation, by now, Earthling has more than 700 star systems under control, they would need a long time to absorb them and make them their official territories.

But a big problem arises, since they defeated the Shima federation, they discovered which civilization was backing them up.

It was the republic of Rokar, they controlled the Orion-Cygnus minor arm of the Milky Way where the Earthling civilization is located.

To live in this minor arm, you have to swear allegiance to them, lower level civilizations will do that, but since Earthling is at the same level of them, they will never have the idea to do that.

The only solution would be war, even though the level of technology may be the same but the republic of Rokar has existed since thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Their territories are stable, they have many civilizations under them and their population and armies are many times bigger than Earthling.

In this case, all the higher-ups don't know how to solve this issue.

While being on a meeting, with no idea whatsoever to what to do and a palpable silence, suddenly a hologram has been projected.

"Hmm? What happened? Did someone activate it?" asked Emma?

"No, it seems that we are being hacked." replied Jeanne nervously.

Everyone looked at the face which appeared on it, it was a bright pink face with many tentacles who were spread outward, it has a big eye in the center of his face, thin black lips and four long pointy ears like elves, other than that it has a humanoid form with height of only one meter.

"Hello everyone, I am Zar Zorvan, a representative of the Pinar civilization, a level 3 civilization." The voice emanating from this living form is in a high pitch voice which could be deducted that she is a female of the Pinar race.

Everyone was shocked, they never encountered level 3 civilization, their level of technology is enough to control one of the two main arms of the Milky Way.

"We have under our jurisdiction the Perseus arm, one of the two spiral arms of our galaxy. The other one, the Scutum-Centaurus arm is being controlled by the Raak civilization." she continued.

"In fact, we are at war with them to decide which civilization will be in control of our galaxy. And I am here to invite you to integrate the Perseus alliance which we are in control and is against the Scutum-Centaurus alliance which the Raak race is controlling."

Since the Orion-Cygnus is closer to their spiral arm than the Raak civilization, it's in their interest to have control over this arm. Unfortunately, they did not have any level 2 civilization here, but they saw that the republic of Rokar, a level 2 civilization under the Scutum-Centaurus alliance was controlling it.

They could not intervene directly or else another galaxy-wide war who hasn't happened since millions of years could happen again.

Another one will happen between these two civilizations, but now it's not the best for their interests.

But when they heard that a newly level 2 civilization was born here, and they saw how determined they were to eradicated their enemies, they saw the perfect candidate to be in charge of the Orion-Cygnus arm.

This is how a level 2 veteran civilization should act, otherwise, they wouldn't want to nurture or protect them.

"Hello, dame Zorvan, I am the president of the Earthling civilization, Emma Dupont. I would like to know what is the alliance you are talking about, and what would we need to do, since our level of technology is only at the beginning of the level 2 civilization." the president asked.

"Good question, these two alliances are at war with each other, if you join it, your first goal would be to become the ruler and overlord of the Orion-Cygnus arm. Also, maybe you didn't see it, in the Zivar virtual net, but after becoming a level 2 civilization, you can begin to exchange materials to gain Universal money." she replied.

"With this money, you can buy more advanced technology of your level of civilization, to break through the level of civilization, you had to do it yourself. Well, what I am getting at, is that we could sell to you the technologies of a level 2 civilization as a lesser price than them. We would also prevent the republic of Rokar to attack you for 1000 years for you to be able to develop, this is the maximum time that is allowed or else, problems with the Scutum-Centaurus alliance will occur." She continued with a smile.

"What do you think, now? Do you accept?" she asked.

Emma pondered.

"We would need to discuss it among ourselves, if you excuse us." she said.

"Of course."

Based on the information presented, it seems that joining the Perseus alliance would be a beneficial move for the Earthling civilization. The alliance would provide access to advanced technologies and resources, and protection from potential attacks by the republic of Rokar.

However, it would also mean getting involved in a galaxy-wide conflict and potentially having to engage in warfare. Ultimately, the decision to accept the invitation to join the Perseus alliance would depend on the priorities and goals of the Earthling civilization's leadership.

After a meeting, they concluded that without the aid of a level 3 civilization, they will be ultimately destroying by the republic of Rokar and since they would certainly be at war with them to decide who will be the overlord of the minor arm of the galaxy, it will be a wised decision to join the Perseus alliance.

Even though, they will have to battle again other civilization, they had no choice.

After a day, they contacted the representative of the Raak civilization.

"We have decided to join your alliance, could we ask of how many members they have in it?" asked Emma.

"You made a good decision, you will not regret it. Our alliance is composed of a level 3 civilization, 15 level civilizations of level 2 with you and 117 civilizations of level 1. Oh, I nearly forget, here is the chip to enter the virtual group of our alliance." She said while sending an information in their database.

"Thank you, dame Zorvan." replied Jeanne.

"You're welcome, I have to go to prepare all your information, tell our leader about you joining our alliance and prevent your war with the republic of Rokar" she said and cut off the communication.

In her spaceship, Zar was happy.

'Good that I arrived in time and had been able to let them join our alliance, with this accomplishment, our leader will surely promote me' she thought with a wide smile on her face while moving at fast speed in her spaceship toward the limit of Earthling territories to get to her home civilization.

She activates the warp engine and disappeared.

In the Earthling territory, after a few days to calm everyone, people were happy to learned that the next threat has been postponed for a 1000 years later.

Year 602 of the Earthling calendar

A marriage was taking place in the mother planet of Earthling, the Earth. This was the wedding of Jeanne with Arthur and Leo, all the biggest higher-ups had been invited.

After joining the alliance, since Jeanne saw that they had a thousand years of peace, she decided to finally marry both of them.

The wedding was the most beautiful and extravagant that it had ever been seen, with spaceship events forming a beautiful movie with their light in space.

The rings were made of orichalcum, the most rare and resistant material the humans actually possessed.

After the wedding night, the lovers decide to make new dreams since they are near they are only two ranks from being achieving their previous goal of becoming the best in their own field of work.

"I will become the conqueror of our galaxy with our armies!" cried out Arthur.

"For myself, I will become the one to discover all the secrets of the space of our galaxy!" Leo followed.

"As for me, I will become the best explorer in the galaxy with the technology I discover, no one will be able to beat me!" She shouted.

After intensive exercise in their bedroom, they all fell asleep.

Jeanne had a strange dream this night.

In the dream, she found herself walking in a white, empty space when she heard a faint electrical signal in front of her. She decided to follow the sound, but as she got closer, she felt a growing pressure and the sound became louder.

Finally, she reached an enormous black box, parts of which appeared and disappeared.

Although she felt like she recognized it, she was sure she had never seen it before. Suddenly, the sound became unbearably loud, and the box exploded without a sound. She saw virtual numbers rushing out of the box and attacking her at high speed.

She was being injured, but the attack never stops, after a small time she died, and then she wakes up with sweat all over her.

She didn't know what it was, but she knew she had a link with that box in that dream and as a scientist, she had to discover what it is, but it seems that she will need a very long time to do this.

At that time, Jeanne didn't know how right she was.
