“That is the whole course of the matter.” Ares said. “During this period we have been keeping watch near this Star Gate, always waiting for your return. Fortunately, you finally ca back at this most critical mont, otherwise our Divine Ark Civilization would already have been destroyed by the Neutron War Star.”
The Neutron War Star and the Sweepers Civilization’s conventional fleet had already been completely destroyed by Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu was constantly monitoring the spatial fluctuations of the entire Milky Way Galaxy, searching for traces of the Sweepers Civilization’s main base. This process was expected to be completed within ten years. This period was hard-won free ti. The great enemy had been eliminated, and Xiao Yu finally had ti to communicate with the Divine Ark Civilization.
After listening to Ares recount the entire course of events, Xiao Yu could not help feeling a bit wistful.
“To think there would be a ruin of a travel-direction Level 7 Civilization here. And it is actually Star Gate technology…” Xiao Yu dispatched relevant scientific research forces to the vicinity of the Star Gate, attempting to carry out so technological analysis.
“Knowing that you are still doing well puts at ease.” Xiao Yu sighed. “In that case, I will have no attachnts when I leave the galaxy. Ares, after so ti the Pegasus Civilization may also co to the Milky Way Galaxy, you must coexist with them peacefully and do not let disputes arise.”
“What? Xiao Yu, you do not intend to return to the Divine Ark Civilization?” Ares asked in slight astonishnt. “Since the matter of luck value has already been resolved, even if you rge with the Divine Ark Civilization again, it will not have any bad effects. Under these circumstances, why do you still choose to travel alone?”
“During this period, I have thought so things through.” Xiao Yu said with a smile. “There are so matters that are personal to , it is better for to handle them myself, I have no right to drag the Divine Ark Civilization into such things. The universe is very dark, dangers are everywhere, it is better to let handle these matters alone.”
“These are so statistics from the public opinion survey I conducted, take a look.” Ares said after a mont of contemplation, sending a set of data to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu received it and began to examine it in his mind.
“Hmm… After I left, the people’s sense of happiness dropped by more than twenty percent, the cri rate rose by nine percent, social productivity fell by eighty percent, and governnt efficiency fell by seventy percent… The voices calling for to go back and continue leading the Divine Ark Civilization have beco the mainstream of society?”
Xiao Yu still smiled as he shook his head.
“Ares, you are a qualified leader. I believe that under your leadership, the Divine Ark Civilization will flourish. For an entire civilization to be led by a computer that possesses the heart of an intelligent being, such a social structure is deford and abnormal. Intelligent beings must ultimately learn to work by themselves, to manufacture tools by themselves, to obtain food by themselves. If life is too comfortable, it will wear away the people’s fighting spirit. That is why I choose not to rge into the Divine Ark Civilization again.”
“The entire galaxy will beco the stage for the developnt of the Divine Ark Civilization and the Pegasus Civilization. You can carry out cooperation and jointly attempt to assault the Level 7 Civilization barrier. Oh, right, I have so technological data to give you. But unfortunately, there is no technology in the scope of Level 7 Civilization in this data. For certain reasons I cannot leak such technological data, what I can give you is only this much.”
“Very well.” Ares nodded sowhat dejectedly. “I very much hope you could stay and continue leading our civilization forward in this dark universe. Only after I shouldered the heavy responsibility of leading the entire civilization did I realize how happy my forr life of freedom and laziness within the civilization had been. It seems I should cultivate a successor, then step down and enjoy my life.”
“Everyone has the obligation to make contributions and sacrifices for their own civilization, do they not?” Xiao Yu said with a smile. “I will stay here for a while yet, you can gather the Divine Ark Civilization’s scientists to begin analyzing the technological data I have given you. If there are any omissions or unclear parts, you may co and ask . I believe that once the Divine Ark Civilization finishes analyzing this data, it will have the qualifications to attempt to beco a Level 7 Civilization. However, whether that attempt succeeds is no longer sothing I can interfere in.”
Ares nodded and cut off the communication link.
The analysis of the Star Gate had already begun, but there were no real results. The main reason was that the technological content of this Star Gate was simply too high, even with Xiao Yu’s current level of technology it was impossible to obtain much data. At present only a few points could be confird. First, this Star Gate could still be used at this mont, that is, Xiao Yu could also use this Star Gate for transmission, only he could not determine where the destination was. Second, this Star Gate had at least been left behind by a travel-direction civilization at Level 8 Civilization level; a Level 7 Civilization did not have the ability to manufacture a Star Gate.
“My current maximum cruising speed is around two hundred tis the speed of light, this speed still cannot escape the limitations on cross-galaxy voyages for low-level civilizations. That is to say, if I want to go to the Androda Galaxy, I would also have to lay out a star route like the Guardian Civilization did. That would be too great a waste of ti and energy. Moreover… Chen Mo is not necessarily in the Androda Galaxy. Based on the intelligence we have now, Chen Mo seems to belong to an organization called the Rebel Alliance, whose duty is to oppose the invigilators. The invigilators operate on the scale of the entire universe, so naturally the Rebel Alliance also operates on the scale of the entire universe, they are unlikely to be limited to a small galaxy. In that case, whether my destination is the Androda Galaxy is not important, going to so other galaxy would be the sa.” Xiao Yu silently pondered. “During this period, I will first test the reliability of the Star Gate. If possible, using the Star Gate to carry out a cross-galaxy voyage also seems to be a good choice.”
The subsequent journey went surprisingly smoothly. By ans of spatial monitoring technology, Xiao Yu discovered traces of the Sweepers Civilization three years later. It was a very vast small universe, with a diater of nearly one hundred light years. Within this small universe there were at least several thousand stars and tens of thousands of life-bearing planets. Several trillion intelligent beings lived here.
“Your social foundations have never been destroyed, which ans enormous potential for war. And judging from the Sweepers Civilization’s habitual way of doing things, I do not believe you will settle down after losing the Neutron War Star. You have always been an unstable factor. Even if there were no personal enmity between us, for the safety of the Pegasus Civilization and the Divine Ark Civilization, I would still have to annihilate all of you. Having dominated the Milky Way Galaxy for tens of millions of years, this vast empire has also co to the ti when the curtain must fall. That is all, farewell.” Xiao Yu shook his head and gave the order to attack without any emotion in his voice.
Hundreds of millions of warships had already entered the Sweepers Civilization’s small universe and launched attacks on its stars and planets.
At this mont, Xiao Yu thought of soone, a person who held an important place in the history of his civilization’s developnt, Xu Junpo.
Xu Junpo ca from the Sweepers Civilization, yet he had made major contributions to the developnt of Xiao Yu’s own technology. This had arisen from the Sweepers Civilization’s sches, but Xu Junpo’s contributions could not be erased.
Xiao Yu let out a slight sigh.
“You did not wish for conflict to erupt between the Divine Ark Civilization and the Sweepers Civilization, yet these things still ca to pass. I am sorry that I could not fulfill your wish. Science is science, politics is politics, the two should not intersect. I am sorry, I am powerless.” Xiao Yu thought silently.
One planet after another was blown apart, one star after another lost its light. The entire small universe had already been tightly sealed off by Xiao Yu, with any entry or exit of spacecraft strictly forbidden. Any ship that tried to escape would be destroyed by Xiao Yu.
“Perhaps I can still do one more thing.” Xiao Yu thought as he piloted several ships toward a planet.
This planet had not yet been destroyed by him, but the Sweepers Civilization’s intelligent beings living on it had already fallen into complete chaos. In the face of death, there was no difference between intelligent beings of a Level 6 Civilization and those of a Level 2 Civilization. The final madness was being played out here, with thick smoke, cries, and explosions filling the entire city.
Amid this chaos, a tightly closed door was opened by robots. Inside the doorway, several intelligent beings were squatting in a corner, trembling. The robots seized them without a word and stuffed them into a spacecraft.
“Do not ask why, if you want to live, then keep your mouths shut. Listen, I will carry out genetic modification on you, and afterward you will have appearances completely different from now. You will go to a new civilization, and within that civilization I have already arranged new identities for you. Live quietly and honestly in the new civilization, and do not cling to the forr glory of your own civilization.”
Xiao Yu spoke calmly, not caring whether these people had clearly heard him or not.
These people were all Xu Junpo’s relatives within the Sweepers Civilization.
“This is all I can do.” Xiao Yu shook his head and sent these people to the Divine Ark Civilization.
Annihilating the Sweepers Civilization did not weigh on Xiao Yu’s conscience, because he knew that if he had been the one to lose, then the fate of the Divine Ark Civilization’s people would be no better than the fate of the Sweepers Civilization’s people at this mont. In the final analysis, once you start a war, you must be prepared in mind and spirit for defeat in war and for the extinction of your civilization.
In a very short ti, this small universe beca a wasteland. Deathly silence and chaos reigned, and by now there was no life left within it.
“The preliminary analysis of the Star Gate has been completed, and with my current technology it is impossible to analyze anything more from it. In that case, it is ti to leave.” Xiao Yu thought to himself.
