From beginning to end, up to this mont, Xiao Yu had never ford a complete concept of a Level 7 Civilization. Xiao Yu only knew that Level 7 Civilizations were extrely rare, that advancing to Level 7 was exceedingly difficult, and that there had even appeared sothing called a Taihao Civilization because of failure to advance to Level 7.
Sweepers, Guardians, the half Four-Dinsional Alien Beast, the Taihao Civilization, the Three Great Alien Beasts, these were all extrely top-tier existences, especially the Sweeper Civilization which was even more formidable. Yet all these powerful existences were without exception stuck below Level 7 and unable to advance. Xiao Yu even suspected that his own appearance was a conspiracy secretly orchestrated by certain existences to use it to advance to Level 7, although up to now Xiao Yu still did not know what the details of this conspiracy actually were.
“You are not a Level 7 Civilization? Then how did you undertake an intergalactic voyage between galaxies?” After that unknown existence said it was not Level 7, Xiao Yu imdiately asked in return.
“I am a spatial lifeform.” the unknown existence answered. “You may not have encountered this mode of existence before. Simply put, my body is space. I possess a special sensitivity to space, so I can undertake intergalactic voyages before reaching Level 7. However, even an ordinary Level 6 Civilization has a way to undertake an intergalactic voyage. Of course, the thod I refer to is not that clumsy thod of using conventional flight. In fact, as far as I know, within your Milky Way there is a civilization called the Guardians that has already been secretly planning to undertake an intergalactic voyage. They are preparing that if the situation in the Milky Way cannot be salvaged, they will use this thod to flee to my holand, the Androda Galaxy.”
This was another extrely major piece of news. From it Xiao Yu could tell that the Guardian Civilization already had the intention to flee to another galaxy. Most important of all, the Guardian Civilization had mastered such a thod.
“This thod is clever and simple. Of course I will not tell you. I believe with your intelligence you should be able to think of it. Mm, none of that is important. I ca here only to hand this item to you, and in passing to accept a commission to eliminate a civilization that poses a great threat to you.”
At this mont Xiao Yu had already taken that necktie box into his hand and placed it inside that Village-Class spaceship. Hearing this ssage from the self-proclaid spatial lifeform, Xiao Yu once again felt a peculiar sensation in his heart.
“You co from the Androda Galaxy?” Xiao Yu asked.
“Yes,” the spatial lifeform answered.
“You are not a Level 7 Civilization, but by relying on the characteristics of your own structure you undertook an intergalactic voyage, ca to the Milky Way, handed this item to , and at the sa ti will eliminate a civilization that poses a great threat to ?”
“Yes,” the spatial lifeform answered.
“Then who entrusted you? In my entire life I have never stepped beyond the bounds of the Milky Way. I do not know what existences in the Androda Galaxy would know of and at the sa ti entrust you to deliver these things to .” Xiao Yu pressed closely.
“I do not know what it is either.” the spatial lifeform answered. “It only told that once you saw this item, you would understand everything. Mm, now that I have delivered it into your hand, can you tell what this thing that seems ordinary and useless to actually is?”
Xiao Yu steadied his mind and began carefully examining the small box.
This was obviously a creation of the Earth era. The box was made of paper, covered on the outside with a layer of plastic film. On this box, those English letters described the place of origin of the item, the brand, and the glorious history possessed by that brand. There was even a photograph of a human man printed on the box. Xiao Yu could easily recognize this man. He was a male movie star from the Earth era fad for possessing masculine charisma. Without a doubt, this actor was the spokesperson for this brand of neckties.
Thus Xiao Yu felt a kind of bafflent.
Earth had been destroyed for tens of thousands of years. As far as was known, humanity had been reduced to only Xiao Yu. Even Xiao Yu had lost his body and existed solely as a consciousness. After such seas turning to mulberry fields and the world changing, Xiao Yu had actually received such an item.
“Seeing this box will make understand everything?” Xiao Yu pondered carefully. From this box Xiao Yu could derive many guesses. These guesses led to many possibilities, yet among these many possibilities Xiao Yu could not confirm one nor rule out another.
The possibilities were truly too many. For example, this might be another sche of a Taihao or of so other existence, or perhaps it was only the prank of so powerful existence done out of boredom, or perhaps it was…
Xiao Yu dared not complete this speculation.
There was a faint hope, yet Xiao Yu also knew how absurd this possibility was.
“The one who handed this item and at the sa ti commissioned to eliminate that civilization that poses a great threat to you, what form of existence is it?” Xiao Yu asked.
The spatial lifeform was silent for a mont and answered, “I cannot tell you. In truth I do not know.”
“Mm, then.” Xiao Yu continued, “how much do you know about it?”
“I cannot tell you that either. In truth I know only the tiniest bit, but even that little I must abide by the rules and may not tell you.” the spatial lifeform answered.
“Then answer one last question.” Xiao Yu said. “Why did you accept its commission and co here across millions of light-years? Did it give you so benefit, or were you compelled to do so?”
“I cannot tell you.” the spatial lifeform answered.
At this mont Xiao Yu had the impulse to curse.
“I cannot answer any of those questions.” the spatial lifeform said. “But why do you not ask so other questions? For example, the situation in the Androda Galaxy, the general distribution of power, whether there are Level 7 Civilizations, how many Level 6 Civilizations there are, and how the Level 6 Civilizations of the Androda Galaxy differ from those of your Milky Way, and so on. Do you not wish to know these things?”
Xiao Yu forced himself to calm his mood and said, “Very well, then please tell that information. I believe that one day I will possess the ability for intergalactic voyages, and the Androda Galaxy will be my first stop. It is good to have so prior understanding.”
“Regrettably I cannot tell you these either.” the spatial lifeform said very solemnly.
“Are you making a fool of ?” Xiao Yu felt an emotion called anger instantly flood his entire consciousness. If not for basic rationality restraining him, Xiao Yu suspected he would imdiately order his warships to open fire on this baffling fellow who claid to be a spatial lifeform.
“Yes, I am making a fool of you.” the spatial lifeform replied with a tone still very solemn and serious. Xiao Yu could sense this mood. The spatial lifeform was like an official from the Earth era delivering a governnt report, solemn, serious, ticulous. Yet the content of its words ford a stark contrast with its tone.
Xiao Yu sneered and said, “Believe , even if I blasted you into flying ash and cast you into a matter-antimatter engine for calcination, it would not quell my anger.”
No matter how one spoke of it, Xiao Yu was after all the absolute leader of a peak Level 5 Civilization, commanding a vast fleet and powerful combat strength, with more than one hundred billion intelligent beings under Xiao Yu’s direction. When had Xiao Yu ever suffered such mockery?
“My apologies.” the spatial lifeform said. “In truth I have a good impression of you. I do not wish to tease you in this way, but these words were personally dictated by the one who commissioned , and I rely repeated them verbatim. If you are angry, vent it at the one who commissioned , not at .”
“Then who is the one who commissioned you?” Xiao Yu asked. “Its reason for doing this?”
“Regrettably, I cannot tell you.” the spatial lifeform answered. “It only said that once you saw this small box, you would understand everything. Mm, now can you tell what use this thing actually has?”
At this mont Xiao Yu felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Facing this peculiar being that claid to be a spatial lifeform, Xiao Yu rather felt that he had strength with no place to exert it. At the sa ti there were far too many doubts circling in Xiao Yu’s mind, leaving his thoughts unable to calm down at all.
“This is an ornant from the Earth Civilization era.” Xiao Yu answered with deep bitterness. “You may not know of the Earth Civilization. Tens of thousands of years ago it was destroyed. The intelligent beings on Earth tied this thing beneath their thinking organ as a decoration.”
“Mm, a very strange thod of use.” the spatial lifeform said. “Then do you understand now?”
“I do not understand.” Xiao Yu said. “There are too many doubts in my mind. I saw this small box, yet I still do not understand what it signifies.”
“That is a pity.” the spatial lifeform replied. “My commissioner told that if you still did not understand after seeing this item, then I was to take it back. Since you do not understand, return it to . I am leaving and returning to my holand.”
“Wait a mont.” At this ti Xiao Yu suddenly recalled so things. The sluice gates of mory opened, and boundless recollections surged like a tide.
“I understand, I understand…” Xiao Yu murmured.
