Regarding the space merchants’ invitation, there were again two camps. Those that supported it said that the invitation was just a formality to cement mankind’s victory in the negotiations. Going through with it would nab mankind the space information and 5th revolution technologies.
Those who rejected it, although small in numbers, backed up their argument with Ren Tao’s warning. The space merchants already knew about mankind’s existence and this was a way to test their cosmic adaptability. The invitation was a trap in disguise.
After weighing both sides of the argument, Yao Yuan still decided to accept the invitation. After all, the contact had been initiated, so there was no reason for them to abandon it half-way. This opportunity was way too important for them, so the invitation had to be accepted.
