“Pegasus Civilization? This, this…” In Xiao Yu’s heart, a wry amusent began to rise.
As for the Pegasus Civilization, Xiao Yu had a deep impression. His dealings with the Pegasus Civilization were not few, from the initial star system war to later being plotted against by the Specter, then rescuing them amid difficulty, and later the Level 5 Civilization Alliance. Xiao Yu had already interacted with the Pegasus Civilization several tis.
“This Pegasus Civilization is truly unlucky. Having their ho destroyed was bad enough, then they encountered a black hole. Encountering a black hole was bad enough, and now it seems they are trapped sowhere. Judging from their aimless plea for help sent via spatial broadcast, they appear to be at the end of their rope. Hm? There is sothing quite odd.” Xiao Yu suddenly recalled a point of doubt.
“Could the Pegasus Civilization’s misfortune be related to the so-called Luck Value. Ever since the Pegasus Civilization suffered a crushing defeat at my hands, it seems they have been on a losing streak. If not for , the Pegasus Civilization should already have been annihilated. Luck Value, this ethereal thing, could it truly have such power, able to decide the life and death of a Level 5 civilization.”
“The Pegasus Civilization seems to have obtained the ruin of a small universe. In their spatial broadcast they specified that only a Level 6 civilization could save them. With my current strength, although I am only a preliminary Level 6 civilization, I possess combat power not less than that of an interdiate Level 6 civilization. Rescuing them once more is no big deal anyway. It would just be a matter of convenience. However, if that unseen Luck Value truly exists, then would rescuing them affect .”
Xiao Yu silently pondered this question. After a mont of thought, he made up his mind.
“I will rescue them once more after all. If there truly is such a thing as Luck Value, then my current Luck Value should be abundant. The Specter and I have eliminated many civilizations along the way. With so much Luck Value, even if I lose a bit now it is nothing. I am very interested to try whether, by interfering to rescue the Pegasus Civilization from peril, I can change their destined destruction due to Luck Value. Whether I rescue or do not rescue the Pegasus Civilization is a small matter. To probe the so-called rules of Luck Value of the unseen is the big matter for .”
The spatial broadcast used by the Pegasus Civilization could not determine the signal source. Facing such a spatial broadcast with an indeterminable source, Xiao Yu could only use the sa thod to broadcast to the entire cosmic region. Thus, Xiao Yu replied, “Pegasus Civilization, greetings. I am the Divine Ark Civilization. We received your distress signal and intend to carry out a rescue. Could you once again tell us a bit about your situation, as well as your current positions information, so that we can act as quickly as possible.”
Monts later, Xiao Yu received another reply. “Divine Ark Civilization, greetings. I am the current leader of the Pegasus Civilization. There are many grudges between us, but we still greatly appreciate your willingness to extend a helping hand to us now. However, you do not have this ability. We obtained a ruin of a Level 6 civilization, a complete small universe, but another preliminary Level 6 civilization that cannot yet manufacture a small universe attempted to exterminate us and seize this small universe. In haste, we all hid within the small universe and shut down the passage linking the main and small universes. But this small universe is very empty. Our material reserves can only sustain us for one year. In despair, we sent a distress signal to the outside. We are very grateful for your willingness to help us, but you are only a Level 5 civilization. A Level 5 civilization cannot be a match for a Level 6 civilization.”
A faint gravity settled in Xiao Yu’s heart. His gravity was not because of that preliminary Level 6 civilization. The reason was obvious. A preliminary Level 6 civilization that could not even manufacture a small universe could not be Xiao Yu’s match. The reason for his gravity was that Xiao Yu now faintly had a premonition.
Xiao Yu imdiately replied, “Our current communication with you likewise uses spatial broadcast technology. We have already broken up the Level 5 Civilization Alliance and absorbed it into the Divine Ark Civilization. After completing the integration, we have relied on our own strength to manufacture a small universe and entered the ranks of a Level 6 civilization. Now, I have several questions to ask you. These questions concern whether our Divine Ark Civilization is willing to extend a helping hand to you. Please answer carefully.”
“First question, in the small universe you are in, is there so kind of linking device left in the main universe. You should not be very clear on the specific technical details. You need only answer whether your small universe requires instrunts on both the small and the main universe sides to be activated together in order to open the connection passage, or whether the passage can be opened relying solely on instrunts on the small universe side.”
This question was extrely critical for Xiao Yu. Because Xiao Yu at present had to rely on both the main and small universes cooperating to open the passage. This ant an unsafe factor. If most of Xiao Yu’s strength were hiding in the small universe, then what if the linking instrunt left in the main universe were destroyed by the enemy. Would that not an Xiao Yu could never escape from the small universe. Although Xiao Yu could still use the thod of slicing space to decelerate the entire small universe and ultimately rge with the main universe, would that not an the painstakingly created small universe would be destroyed.
Obviously, the safest thod was to open or close the passage relying solely on instrunts on the small universe side. In this way, the safety factor would be greatly increased.
Monts later, Xiao Yu received the Pegasus Civilization’s reply. “Yes, in the small universe we are in, there is no linking instrunt left in the main universe. We can completely open or close the link between the small and main universes relying solely on instrunts on the small universe side.”
A faint excitent began to rise in Xiao Yu’s heart. Clearly, the Level 6 civilization that left this small universe had technology slightly more advanced than his own. If he could study this small universe, he could harvest many things.
Xiao Yu quickly asked the second question. “Then, can the small universe you are in move freely without relying on instrunts on the main universe side. Does your small universe have the ability to move.”
After a brief silence, Xiao Yu received the answer. “No. If we want to move the small universe, we must first open the link passage, then place a certain instrunt into the main universe. Only through the traction of this instrunt can we move.”
“That is sowhat regrettable.” Xiao Yu sighed. It was obvious that technology allowing the small universe to move freely without traction from the main universe side was of greater value than the technology to open the linked passage unilaterally.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu’s casual remark received a strong reaction from the Pegasus Civilization. In their reply, Xiao Yu heard the leader’s voice filled with bitterness and pleading.
“Is the technology of this small universe not attractive enough to you, insufficient to make you go to war with a preliminary Level 6 civilization for it. We are very sorry that we cannot produce more things to attract you, but please believe us, believe in the developnt potential of the Pegasus Civilization, and please believe in the promise of a civilization with an indomitable will. If you are willing to rescue us, we will surely repay you in the future, even if the price of this repaynt is sacrificing the lives of most of our people. Please believe our promise. This is the most precious thing we can offer.”
“Eh?” Xiao Yu sighed slightly in his heart, then replied, “Please rest assured. I believe your promise, although I do not much care about your promise and it has no significance for . But I still intend to rescue you. Now, tell your positions information. I will set out now and eliminate that preliminary Level 6 civilization.”
To wage a war with a preliminary Level 6 civilization for the sake of technology that could open or close the link passage unilaterally was already entirely worthwhile for Xiao Yu now. Moreover, Xiao Yu harbored a faint plan in his heart. He intended to use the matter of rescuing the Pegasus Civilization to test that unseen rule, to explore what Luck Value actually was and to what extent it could affect a civilization. As for the Pegasus Civilization’s promise, Xiao Yu truly did not take it to heart. A civilization struggling bitterly in the dark universe, repeatedly on the verge of extinction, and needing his helping hand to continue existing, saying it would repay him in the future. This was rather laughable. The likelihood that he would need the Pegasus Civilization in the future was indeed very small.
“Our position is… Divine Ark Civilization, please note that the preliminary Level 6 civilization attempting to seize our small universe and exterminate us has roughly thirty million warships stationed here, and warships continue to arrive. In this period we have been unable to observe information outside, but we believe that the warships this preliminary Level 6 civilization has stationed here at present will not be fewer than one hundred million.”
“Very good. We are very close. I can arrive in one month. You continue to hold on. As for this preliminary Level 6 civilization, leave it to us.” Xiao Yu replied.
At that very mont, Xiao Yu received another ssage, likewise sent via spatial broadcast technology, but clearly not sent by the Pegasus Civilization.
“Divine Ark Civilization, is it. Such arrogance.”
