It was true that the Federation did not collect tributes because the Federation had better methods than that.
Therefore, on this point, Lin Yu was not lying at all.
However, to Eben Ni, this was simply inconceivable.
Are you sure we mean the same thing when we talk about subsidiary civilizations?
If we don't collect tributes, what's the use of subsidiary civilizations?
"Sir Lin Yu, you really don't collect tributes from subsidiary civilizations?"
After recovering from his frozen state, Eben Ni asked again in disbelief.
It was not that he did not hear Lin Yu's words clearly, but rather, Eben Ni was more willing to believe that he was hallucinating.
However, there was no such thing as auditory hallucinations.
"That's right, the Federation has never collected tributes from subsidiary civilizations!"
"Not only that, the Federation will also provide necessary assistance for subsidiary civilizations to advance to a higher level."
Hiss …
Does your Federation specialize in charity?
However, if all of this was true …
He was tempted.
It had to be said that the temptation was great.
Originally, the mission that Emoni gave Eben Ni was to indirectly understand the Federation's subsidiary civilization policy. If it was suitable, he could directly ask the other party to accept him as a subsidiary civilization.
The core meaning of this was that as long as the tributes collected were not as excessive as the Purple Cloud Empire's!
However, now that he heard it, how was this not as excessive as the Purple Cloud Empire's? They were not collecting tributes at all!
It was fine if they did not collect tributes, but from what he said, they would even support the development of subsidiary civilizations under them?
This was simply …
"I wonder if Sir Lin Yu can tell me more about the Federation's subsidiary civilization policy? I'm really curious!"
Eben Ni, who originally wanted to beat around the bush, could no longer hold himself back in the face of such temptation and directly asked.
However, Lin Yu looked at Eben Ni's excited expression and was somewhat confused.
He did want to subdue this civilization, but wasn't his attitude a little too enthusiastic?
For a level 4 civilization that was the ruler of a star field, under normal circumstances, they would not actively want to become a subsidiary civilization.
After all, a ruler had the pride of a ruler, even if it was only a star field's ruler.
However, the situation in front of him was obviously not normal. It seemed that there was something wrong with the Andromeda Galaxy!
However, it didn't matter. As long as he could deal with this Glorious Empire, he would naturally know the reason.
"The Federation's subsidiary civilization policy is actually very simple. Everything revolves around contribution points!"
Soon, Lin Yu briefly explained the Federation's subsidiary civilization policy.
Even if he didn't say that he was fine, his words made Eben lose his composure!
You call this a subsidiary civilization?
Are you sure it's not an equal cooperative civilization?
Furthermore, what had he just heard? The Federation's earliest batch of level-two and level-three affiliated civilizations were now mostly level-four civilizations. Many of them were even at the peak of level-four and were half a step into level-five!
And all of this had only taken a few decades?
No, I can't hold it in anymore!!!
"Sir Lin Yu, I wonder if our Glorious Empire can apply to become a subsidiary civilization of your Federation?"
Eben asked excitedly. Even his voice was trembling.
Whether or not he could ride on the coattails of a golden thigh, enjoy the protection of an advanced civilization, and walk to the peak of the civilization depended on the answer of this person in front of him.
"Sure!"
"However, our Federation has strict requirements for subsidiary civilizations. It's not that we don't reject anyone!"
"Simply put, any civilization can apply to become a subsidiary civilization of the Federation. However, whether or not you can get approval depends on whether your civilization's potential value can reach the standard set by our Federation!"
"If you are sure to apply, I will arrange for an evaluation team to come down and evaluate the Glorious Empire's potential value!"
Although he had already made up his mind to accept the Glorious Empire, as a level-six civilization, the Federation still had to act cool.
In any case, he would organize a team and follow the Federation's evaluation process on Orion Constellation's arm to evaluate their potential value.
If it was a meter, there was naturally nothing to say and he would accept it immediately.
If it did not reach the standard, it was fine. He would just say that although their potential value was not that great, they had barely reached the standard!
However, Eben's thoughts might be different from Lin Yu's.
In his opinion, if an entire star field produced a level-four civilization like him, could it be that their civilization's potential value was bad?
It did not exist. They would definitely pass the evaluation easily!
"Yes, we are sure to apply. We will have to trouble Sir Lin Fan to arrange the evaluation for our civilization's potential value!"
"Alright, I will ask the evaluation team to come down in a moment. They will tell you what you need for the evaluation. You just have to cooperate!"
"Understood!"
…
After strolling around the Glorious Empire's Emperor Planet for an hour, although Eben kept urging him to stay, the bored Lin Yu still returned to the battleship.
Of course, Lin Yu did not forget about proper business after returning to the battleship. He immediately asked the scientists on the ship to form an evaluation team and head to the Glorious Empire's Emperor Planet to evaluate their civilization's potential value.
Eben had already reported the situation to Emperor Emoni!
Emoni's instructions were only one sentence.
Cooperate fully with the Human Federation's evaluation team!
What a joke, this was an overlord that owned dozens of galaxies. It was simply an extremely thick thigh!
Moreover, even if the Human Federation could not deal with the Purple Cloud Empire, they could at least bring them to other galaxies, right?
In short, regardless of whether the humans could defeat the Purple Cloud Empire, for the Glorious Empire, it was still a path full of hope.
If they did not hug such a thigh now, when would they?
This so-called civilization's potential value evaluation, the Glorious Empire would definitely pass!
-----
Following Emoni's orders, Eben personally welcomed the Human Federation's evaluation team with great enthusiasm!
As for the various requests made by the evaluation team, Eben readily agreed. Even if they asked for full access to the Glorious Empire's civilization database, Eben did not have any doubts. After all, Emoni wanted to curry favor with the Federation, so he took the initiative to do so.
After obtaining everything they needed, the evaluation team immediately got to work under the leadership of Bnehamin.
As for Eben, who accompanied them throughout, his originally confident little gray face darkened with the passage of time.
"What the hell, a nuclear fusion research took more than 3000 years to succeed?"
"That's nothing. Look here, the Glorious Empire was already a beginner level 4 civilization when it was first established. But after 9000 years, it's still a beginner level 4 civilization!"
"What I see here makes me want to vomit blood. After discovering gunpowder, it took a full 30,000 years for firearms to appear. Can you believe it?"
...
Listening to the continuous ridicule of the evaluation team, Eben began to doubt his life.
I'm an overlord of a star field, a level 4 civilization!
Why is it that in your mouth, we're worse than trash?
