Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito

Chapter 1455: Chapter 17: Welcome. [Request for Official Subscription]

The proposal put forward by Jia Yan naturally received everyone’s flattery, and there was no opposition at all; moreover, the proposal was reasonable, so there was no resistance.

Henceforth, the future positioning issue of the Earth was resolved, and that is a commercial civilization!

At least until technology catches up, Earth will develop like this; otherwise, as a civilization praised to the skies by the Great Empire, it would be laughed at if it doesn’t catch up with the Great Empire within a few hundred years.

The hurdle for a commercial civilization is not high, and with Jia Yan as a factor, everyone will give a little respect, allowing for a slight early welfare period. Of course, the middle and later stages won’t be that easy.

Nevertheless, taking the first step correctly is very important.

”I happen to have some business dealings to discuss with the Great Empire, which can count as the start of Earth’s first external trade.”

Jia Yan said this sentence and then remained silent about it.

Negotiations with the Great Empire naturally involve his own expenses for his own things, with Earth’s involvement merely to increase exposure.

As for the content, Jia Yan had also thought it through; he wanted to discuss that ’Essence Blood’ possessed by the Great Empire!

Indeed, when Jia Yan heard about this Essence Blood that day, his heart was moved. If this stuff is so beneficial to ordinary creatures, then for his true body, a bona fide Evolutionary Creature, the effects might be extraordinary!

Others need to be at the Stellar level to use it, but he might be able to barely use it now, in which case, he doesn’t know how much his strength could increase.

It is almost unimaginable for Jia Yan that biological Essence Blood from tens of thousands of years ago is still useful today. But since it exists, no matter its current efficacy, he must find a way to obtain some.

Within a few days, after further detailed discussions with high-level officials from various countries within the Earth Alliance, Jia Yan learned that the goods transported by the Great Empire had arrived.

Jia Yan did not forget his purpose of returning to Earth, which was to help Earth receive this batch of goods.

In the distant starry sky, cargo spaceships and battleships were slowly sailing through the stars.

This cargo fleet boasts formidable combat power; indeed, even if it were unaccompanied by a single battleship, no one would dare raid it because the affiliated power is the undisputed overlord of the entire Orion Arm, the Great Empire.

Yet within this fleet, groups gathered together, completely respectful of the place they were about to reach.

”Listen up, you all represent the Great Empire’s first delegation to the Earth civilization’s power. You better be prepared; even if Earth is backward, you must not laugh or speak of their flaws. The face of the Great Empire and our future friendship with this Earth civilization might rest on your personal conduct. Understood?”

A humanoid high-ranking official sternly addressed all the biological beings on each battleship via a large screen before them.

”Yes.”

The soldiers and warriors of the Great Empire all nodded seriously, sharing a sense of gravity.

They understood that their mission represented the first large-scale interaction between the Great Empire and the Earth civilization. As for Earth, they only knew that this civilization wasn’t powerful and relied heavily on the presence of the top-ranked expert in this Orion Arm, ’Jia Yan’, for status.

They had already prepared for Earth’s primitiveness, so they wouldn’t laugh at Earth’s backwardness upon witnessing it.

Yet upon entering the Solar System and seeing the surrounding celestial bodies and those temporary resource extraction planets, their eyes widened in disbelief.

”My God! I knew Earth’s civilization was backward, but this... this is unbelievably backward.”

”Exactly, I thought those comments about Earth’s backwardness were just jokes, but now it seems they’re not exaggerated at all. Even those rumors were praising Earth.”

”Using such old mining machines and not having entered vast regions of the starry sky, is this really the mother galaxy of Earth’s civilization? They can’t be recent stargazing aborigines, right?”

The first envoy group of the Great Empire arrived in the Solar System and was directly stunned by the surroundings.

Within the Orion Arm, the difference between strong and weak civilizations is stark. Yet, technologically and culturally, the Great Empire isn’t far ahead of the second and third largest civilizations. Its vast territory and abundant talent give it a strategic edge, particularly in weaponry.

Originally, Earth was thought to be backward, but perhaps it was a small yet technologically competent civilization.

Now upon seeing it, it is entirely an elementary civilization, even more primitive than typical elementary civilizations.

”Don’t laugh! Earth’s strength does not lie in technology or development. Control your expressions. Causing trouble impacting bilateral relations would make you traitors to the Great Empire.”

Upon hearing their supreme leader’s stern words, the people of the Great Empire dared not speak recklessly any longer.

But privately, there are still discussions.

The general consensus was that the Earth civilization was able to reach its current state only because of the powerful figure ’Lord Jia Yan,’ who mysteriously became strong enough to rival the two top strong ones of the Great Empire. Otherwise, it’s likely they would have been devoured by surrounding civilizations without even their bones remaining.

Of course, they didn’t know that the Earth civilization had indeed faced a similar situation before. However, the two civilizations that wanted to devour Earth have long since surrendered and are now essentially vassals of the Earth civilization.

”Silence, the people from the Earth civilization are coming.”

”Huh? What! Lord Jia Yan himself, this is truly... we are both honored and fearful.”

When the leader of the entire cargo fleet just issued the order, he paused again, as if hearing reports from his subordinates.

Then he excitedly exclaimed loudly to the live broadcast of the whole fleet.

”How fortunate are we, did you hear? For an ordinary envoy group like us, one of the top strong ones inside the Orion Arm, Lord Jia Yan himself has actually come to welcome us. Everyone, pull yourselves together. Those who spoke ill of the Earth civilization earlier, be careful now, it’s Lord Jia Yan himself. You should understand his identity and status, be careful not to say anything wrong.”

After such words from the highest officer, the soldiers also stirred.

”Lord Jia Yan himself?”

”I’m really going to faint. Lord Jia Yan, wasn’t he the fearsome strong one who just exerted his power at the Kawai Defense Line, annihilating an external secondary level creature and scaring another one away? And now he’s actually coming to meet us in person. Am I dreaming?”

”Indeed, it is because of him that the Earth civilization holds such a high status. I’ve even heard rumors that Lord Jia Yan is actually the mightiest existence inside our Orion Arm, and any foreign creatures that Lord Flame of our Great Empire couldn’t defeat would flee upon his arrival.”

”Exactly, having such a person come to meet us is something we’ll brag about for a lifetime.”

”So, stay sharp and demonstrate the demeanor of us, citizens of the Great Empire.”

The Great Empire’s citizens, while they may look down on the Earth civilization, they dare not dismiss Jia Yan, a strong one. Even in the Orion Arm, where strong ones aren’t considered powerful, it is still a world dominated by the strong. Respecting the strong is the natural inclination of most civilians, and the citizens of the Great Empire are no exception.

Looking at the Earth fleet, which appeared increasingly closer but clearer, and terribly dilapidated and backward in the eyes of the Great Empire’s military and citizens, they approached at a speed considered snail-like until they reached the front of the fleet. Then, everyone saw a tiny figure fly out from one of the Earth Fleet’s battleships.

”I am Jia Yan of the Earth civilization, welcome citizens of the Great Empire to our Earth civilization.”

The tiny figure lightly addressed the fleet with these words.

”Thank you, Lord Jia Yan, for sparing time to meet us. Greetings, Lord Jia Yan.”

”Thank you for your audience, Lord.”

One by one, the high ranks of the Great Empire cargo battleships hastily responded in the same manner using brainwave power. Meanwhile, other citizens respectfully stayed inside the warship because they understood that this strong one could easily know their movements, even their expressions, through brainwave power.

”So terrifying, this Lord, with just a wave of brainwave power, lets everyone in our cargo fleet hear his voice.”

”This is the demeanor of a top-tier strong one. How did I come to be honored with such an audience during my lifetime? Telling this story will be a point of pride for my whole life.”

In the ordinary cargo aircraft, the Great Empire’s citizens were all full of admiration for the appearing figure, knowing this might be the most terrifyingly strong existence they’d ever see in their lives.

The appearing figure was naturally Jia Yan.

His emergence to face Earth’s first large-scale incoming cargo fleet represented an attitude, a commercial attitude, alongside respect for the Great Empire.

After all, Jia Yan alone couldn’t support the Earth civilization in all aspects, nor could the current Earth civilization directly confront the Great Empire. Even the other side understood this, so there would be no concern about Earth’s influence. Helping Earth wouldn’t become a matter of worry, with the possibility of Earth affecting the Great Empire being something for at least several thousand years later. By then whether Jia Yan, the Guardian God of Earth people, would still be around is uncertain, and they wouldn’t concern themselves with matters so far into the future.

If Jia Yan expressed a friendly attitude, the Great Empire, considering his presence, would help when they could, and when unwilling to help, just not setting traps would be enough.

That was Jia Yan’s original intent.

This shipment contained items immensely useful to the Earth people, including aid materials, various types of industrial machines, medical instruments, and so on.

Half a month later, before the fleet departed, Jia Yan surprisingly boarded a superfast aircraft alone, and with a somewhat solemn demeanor, flew away from Earth.

Just by his expression, it’s clear something has happened!
