The ssage Xiao Yu received was sent by a thod Xiao Yu had not yet understood. It seed to contain space technology, yet not entirely space technology, with a little sothing else mixed in. But in any case, in that instant Xiao Yu already understood that the existence sending him the ssage was not the Guardian Civilization, and that their technology was definitely higher than his own, even higher than that of the Guardian Civilization.
The Guardian Civilization had already reached the absolute peak of a Level 6 Technological Civilization, surpassing even the Sweepers Civilization. Then what kind of civilization would have technological standards higher than the Guardian Civilization?
“Could it be a Level 7 Civilization?” Xiao Yu’s heart tightened. “Who are you? Where are you?”
“We are in front of you.” That unknown existence continued sending a ssage to Xiao Yu. “We are right in front of you.”
With these words from the unknown existence, Xiao Yu saw a shocking scene. Right within Xiao Yu’s small universe, in the absolute core of Xiao Yu’s flagship, the Solar Star-Class warship, in the computer room housing the supercomputer where Xiao Yu resided, Xiao Yu saw a startling sight.
Through the internal monitoring instrunts, Xiao Yu saw so inexplicable points of light. These points of light were gradually converging from all directions, finally gathering into a sphere emitting a faint milky-white radiance, about the size of a lead ball. This light sphere floated in the void, undulating, giving off an indescribable aura.
“What is this light sphere? How did they co here?” Xiao Yu’s mind instantly cald. Vast amounts of data began to be analyzed, yet not a single clue could be found.
The Solar Star-Class warship was under the strictest protection, and the main control computer was the very focus of that defense. To ensure the Solar’s safety, Xiao Yu was not even willing to let the Solar participate in the war, although the Solar was the most powerful in combat among all of Xiao Yu’s ships.
Yet this inexplicable light sphere appeared in the place Xiao Yu defended most tightly. Xiao Yu detected no energy fluctuations at all. He did not know on what principle this light sphere existed, nor what energy was sustaining it.
“Who are you? What is this light sphere? How did you enter the interior of my warship? What level is your civilization? Where is the main body of your civilization? What business do you have with ? Why do you want to give up pursuing the Guardian Civilization?” In this mont, boundless questions filled Xiao Yu’s mind.
“You truly have many questions.” The unknown existence sighed slowly and answered, “This light sphere is our civilization. Although your warship has adopted so defensive asures at the spatial level, to us such asures still appear rather crude. So entering your ship’s interior without alerting you was not difficult for us. Our civilization’s level? Well, according to the classification thod used in the universe, we fall under the category of a Level 7 Civilization. Our civilization has a population of ten trillion citizens, and each citizen pilots an independent spaceship. So in our civilization there are a total of ten trillion spaceships. Now, the light sphere you see is the entirety of our civilization’s citizens, as well as the entirety of our spaceships.”
“What do you an this light sphere is all your citizens, as well as all your spaceships?” Hearing this answer, Xiao Yu was slightly stunned, for he did not understand what that sentence ant.
Xiao Yu looked once more at the light sphere quietly floating in his main control computer room and operated a robot to slowly approach the light sphere, extending its chanical arm to try to touch it. Unexpectedly, the light sphere imdiately moved back a certain distance. At the sa ti, Xiao Yu received another ssage from this civilization, “Apologies, you cannot touch our spaceship. Doing so could cause so undesirable consequences.”
“Your spaceship?” Xiao Yu was stunned again.
“Yes, exactly.” the unknown existence replied. “I already said that this light sphere is the collective of all spaceships of our civilization, a total of ten trillion spaceships gathered here. When all the spaceships are gathered together, they form this light sphere. Perhaps you can look at it this way.”
The unknown existence spoke slowly. Suddenly the light sphere dispersed and turned into a large sheet of light, like a light screen. This light screen continued to expand slowly. As its volu increased, its glow gradually diminished until it completely disappeared. Yet through Xiao Yu’s observation instrunts, Xiao Yu could still see so points of light.
Very tiny points of light, with each point about the size of a molecule or even an atom. So points of light were even smaller than atoms. Seeing this astonishing scene, a shocking idea slowly arose in Xiao Yu’s mind. “This, this, your spaceships are not these individual molecules or atoms, are they?”
In Xiao Yu’s habitual way of thinking, there was a theorem, and all his experiences since entering the universe had basically confird it. Naly, the larger the spaceship’s size and mass, the stronger its capability. For example, the Radiance, for example, the son. Although the Neutron War Star and the Micron corpse were small in size, those were special creations and could not be judged by common sense.
The civilization before him was a Level 7 Civilization, yet their spaceships were so small.
“Yes, exactly. Our spaceships are only the size of molecules or atoms, and even protons or neutrons. We are a Level 7 Civilization of the microscopic direction. In our civilization, the smaller the spaceship, the higher the technological content.” the unknown existence answered.
“A Level 7 Civilization of the microscopic direction.” This term struck Xiao Yu’s mind with a heavy shock. “So there even exists such a Level 7 Civilization, developing smaller and smaller, with spaceship sizes even smaller than molecules and atoms. In the universe, there actually exists such a peculiar civilization, with such a peculiar mode of existence.”
“Do you understand?” the unknown existence asked. At the sa ti, the dispersed points of light instantly converged again, reforming that light sphere, quietly suspended in the air.
“I understand.” Xiao Yu murmured. He indeed understood the words of this microscopic-direction Level 7 Civilization. This light sphere was the entirety of their civilization. All of their civilization’s spaceships and all of their lifeforms gathered together made a sphere about the size of a lead ball.
So tiny, yet combined with the technology of a Level 7 Civilization, such a thing indeed had the ability to pass through his ship’s defense system without alerting him and enter the interior of his body.
“But how do you ensure your combat power?” At this mont, Xiao Yu thought of a question. It was simple. You are so small. All your warships gathered together are only the size of a lead ball. Then how do you fight the enemy?
“A Level 7 Civilization is a mode of existence completely beyond your imagination.” this microscopic-direction Level 7 Civilization replied. “Our civilization does not use war capability as the tric for asuring developnt. We are a Level 7 Civilization, but our comprehensive combat power may not even surpass yours. We have no interest in war. Of course, it is not so easy for other existences to destroy us either.”
Xiao Yu thought for a mont and agreed with this statent. Indeed, things with sizes of molecules, atoms, or even smaller than atoms, and capable of dispersing at any ti, how could one possibly destroy them all? At least Xiao Yu could not think of a way to annihilate them. But without a doubt, this existence did have the ability to destroy him. If these existences all entered his main control computer and damaged his computer system at the molecular and atomic level, Xiao Yu would die imdiately.
“A Level 7 Civilization is a brand-new form of existence. Most Level 7 Civilizations have little interest in war. Imrsing themselves in developing their own path, enjoying life, and exploring mysteries is the mainstream among Level 7 Civilizations. We have even heard of a civilization that is a travel-oriented Level 7 Civilization. All intelligent beings of the entire civilization take travel as their pursuit, roaming between one galaxy and another, appreciating all kinds of wondrous scenery in the universe as their ultimate goal. There are even building-oriented Level 7 Civilizations that take the construction of all manner of magnificent structures as their goal of pursuit. Their understanding of architectural art is such that there is almost no existence in the entire universe that can stand shoulder to shoulder with them. Compared to such civilizations, our microscopic-direction Level 7 Civilization does not seem so hard to understand.” the unknown existence said.
“There are actually such civilizations? Is the universe not dark? Is it not the case that different civilizations only wage war against each other, and that most Level 7 Civilizations are not striving solely for their own developnt and survival?” Xiao Yu thought in disbelief, feeling as if a door were slowly opening before him. Beyond the door was a brand-new world he had never encountered.
“Yes. Level 7 Civilizations are entirely different from civilizations below.” the unknown existence replied. “Level 7 Civilizations basically no longer have any pressure to survive, so they can free themselves from basic survival needs and pursue spiritual fulfillnt. Just like our civilization, we have a trendous interest in the microscopic world. This interest gradually beca the mainstream of our civilization, so our civilization evolved smaller and smaller. Such is the wonder of a Level 7 Civilization.”
“Is that so?” Xiao Yu pondered silently. “But how do you explain Luck Value? How do you explain the invigilator? How do you explain the great chasm that a Level 6 Civilization must cross to advance to a Level 7 Civilization?”
