“I seem to have sensed that during this period, there have been spaceships in the dark constantly observing us from afar, as if monitoring our movents.” Xiao Yu sent a ssage to the Fla Civilization. “They should be those civilizations that escaped from the small universe earlier. Perhaps, they still have so thoughts about .”
“That is impossible, absolutely impossible.” the Fla Civilization replied. “Great Sweepers Civilization, please rest assured, your level of technology is undoubtedly number one in the galaxy, and even the entire Guardian Alliance could not match your combat strength. Those civilizations are not foolish enough to provoke you. Besides, it is only because you showed rcy that these civilizations still have the right to continue existing. Under these circumstances, how could they possibly harbor improper intentions toward you?”
“I am just telling you.” Xiao Yu said calmly. “If they dare to provoke , I will destroy them all. At that ti, if you dare to speak up to dissuade , I will not mind wiping you out along with them.”
The Fla Civilization seed frightened by this killing intent-laden statent. After a long while, a reply finally ca back. “If those civilizations truly repay kindness with enmity, then being completely destroyed by you would be what they deserve.”
Xiao Yu snorted and cut off the connection.
Xiao Yu had discovered so sneaky ships loitering around him, but he could not be bothered to pay them any attention. Mosquitoes buzzing around would never attract the gaze of a lion resting lazily. It was still the sa line, if you dare to co, then I will kill you, just that simple and direct. Xiao Yu had that confidence and capability.
By now, Xiao Yu had already stayed in this small universe for more than five hundred years. Those five hundred peaceful years had passed in a flash, and Xiao Yu did not feel the slightest boredom or weariness. Because here, through studying this small universe left behind by a Level 7 civilization, Xiao Yu made new discoveries almost every single day. With each passing day, he drew a little closer to the Level 7 civilization threshold. Problems that had previously troubled him were solved one by one, and these solutions were then swiftly applied to his actual construction work.
Xiao Yu had already begun planning and constructing Star Cluster-Class battleships. Star Cluster-Class battleships were a level above Star-Class battleships, yet in Xiao Yu’s design, the size of a Star Cluster-Class battleship was far smaller than that of a Star-Class battleship, not even as large as a Province-Class spaceship.
“Star-Class spaceships are the largest warships manufactured by Technological Civilizations. They represent a certain extre. Just like those famous swords of ancient Earth’s cold-weapon era that represented the pinnacle of cold weapons. No matter how sharp the Longquan Sword is, its lethal power cannot compare to a handgun. This is a change in developntal direction. From this mont on, I have already departed from the path of pursuing larger and more massive spaceships.” Xiao Yu thought silently.
“The ultimate use of space technology is to use finite spaceships to carry infinite space. Even if it were those micro-scale ships of the Micron Civilization, as small as atoms, if soone told they had an entire solar system loaded inside their ships, I would believe it. A Star Cluster-Class battleship is only between a Province-Class spaceship and a City-Class spaceship in size, but the space inside it is enough to hold dozens of Star-Class battleships. With such enormous space combined with near-limit space utilization, just how much fuel and how many weapons could I load inside…”
This was the most fundantal difference between a Level 7 civilization and a Level 6 civilization. The pursuits of the two were completely different. It was like how the poor were still striving to fill their stomachs, while the rich were already writing poetry and painting, pursuing spiritual fulfillnt.
As for the internal classifications among Level 7 civilizations, Xiao Yu had also begun to feel out a few things. Advanced Level 7 civilizations all had their own developnt directions, for example Level 7 civilizations in the extre stellar body direction, or Level 7 civilizations in the microscopic direction. Low-level Level 7 civilizations, however, did not yet show such categories.
The fundantal reason for the ergence of such classifications was that when technology developed to a certain point, the scientific system beca enormous, bloated, and fragnted. A civilization’s resources were no longer sufficient to develop all fronts simultaneously, so it had to choose one direction for deep research. It was like how universities in the age of Earth had different majors.
It was obvious that even realizing the necessity of choosing a direction for advanced study required a process. At the beginning, when the civilization’s scientific research strength was still sufficient, there was naturally no need to choose a direction. Moreover, choosing which direction to develop in was sothing that required a long ti for consensus to form within the civilization. Choosing a developnt direction required overall consideration of the civilization’s current state of technological developnt, the wishes of most mbers of the civilization, and expectations for the future, among many other factors.
Overall, in Xiao Yu’s categorization, those that mastered the technology of using finite ships to carry infinite space and were able to build Star Cluster-Class battleships belonged to preliminary Level 7 civilizations. Those that had already clarified their developnt direction and begun research in that direction belonged to advanced Level 7 civilizations. Under this classification thod, every Level 7 civilization Xiao Yu had heard of belonged to the advanced Level 7 category. As for why there were no preliminary Level 7 civilizations, Xiao Yu did not know the reason.
“But I do not have this worry.” Xiao Yu pondered in secret. “As long as I have enough computational power, I can have unlimited scientific research capability. I wonder if there is a Level 7 civilization in the computer direction in this universe. If my computational power can make another huge leap, it might not be impossible for to beco a fully developed Level 7 civilization.”
“A Level 7 civilization in the computer direction should exist in this universe, right… However, the computer direction is very special. This type of Level 7 civilization will very likely set creating true artificial intelligence as its goal. If true artificial intelligence exists, that is, electronic life, then it should be an existence similar to . And since it is similar to , I wonder whether such electronic life would possess the capability to drive comprehensive developnt of its civilization.”
“If such electronic life truly exists, that would be terrifying. A single-direction Level 7 civilization is already so frightening. A fully developed civilization, this, this…” Xiao Yu fell into deep thought.
“Enough of that. The important thing now is to beco a Level 7 civilization as soon as possible.” Xiao Yu cast these thoughts out of his mind and devoted himself once more to his research work with full concentration.
At this mont, within the Androda Galaxy, an undercurrent was surging in secret. A piece of news was spreading madly among countless civilizations, stirring up innurable desire-filled hearts.
“A peak Level 6 civilization calling itself the Sweepers has co to our galaxy. According to estimates, the technological level of the Sweepers Civilization has already reached the point where it is only one step away from entering the Level 7 civilization realm.”
“If we can destroy the Sweepers Civilization and obtain its technological data, it will not be impossible for our civilization to beco a Level 7 civilization.”
“Do not indulge in such fantasies. Existence that is only one step away from becoming a Level 7 civilization is far beyond anything we can contend with. We should behave ourselves, stay here, and continue our research into Star-Class battleships…”
“Fool. We must seize such an opportunity. You need to understand, it is not just our single civilization going forth to deal with the Sweepers. More than two hundred Level 6 Technological Civilizations, more than sixty Level 6 Alien Beasts, and over seventy Taihao Civilizations across the entire galaxy will all be mobilized to participate in the encirclent war against the Sweepers Civilization. No matter how powerful the Sweepers Civilization is, it cannot possibly be a match for our three hundred plus civilizations joining forces.”
“At present, more than seventy civilizations have already agreed to join our Guardian Alliance and participate together in the encirclent against the Sweepers Civilization… Honorable Lord Tyrant Dragon Beast, you are one of the peak Level 6 Alien Beasts in our galaxy. I wonder if you are interested in participating as well…”
“Greetings, Blue Star Civilization. I am an envoy from the Guardian Civilization. No, no, you misunderstand. I am not here this ti to lure you into joining the Guardian Alliance as vassals, but rather to bring you a major piece of news…”
“Heh, a quasi-Level 7 Technological Civilization, is it. Back when I attempted to break through to Level 7 and failed, that damned Guardian of the Way transford into a single-entity civilization, permanently severing my hope of further advancent. Now at last there is another opportunity. According to the intelligence, this Sweepers Civilization has definitely already conducted super particle acceleration experints and definitely possesses concrete research data on the space energy formula. Whether I can beco a Level 7 civilization will depend on this chance…”
In the pitch-black void, a gigantic spaceship was traveling rapidly using curvature flight, heading toward the distance. That place was the assembly point designated by the alliance. More than three hundred Level 6 civilizations would gather there.
One after another, Alien Beast Civilizations of differing forms left their lairs and rushed in that direction. One mighty interstellar fleet after another also proceeded toward that place. In so corners of the universe, so strange and bizarre things were likewise moving that way…
“This feeling is truly intoxicating. Right now, the entire galaxy is under my command and control, listening to my orders and submitting to my will.” Ao Tian stood before the transparent window of the spaceship, watching the powerful beings converging from every direction of the universe, his emotions surging wildly.
“This encirclent’s success or failure concerns the future of every civilization in our entire galaxy. Here and now, I order that all non-Level 6 civilizations are to be responsible for logistics. All Level 6 civilizations must commit their full combat strength against the enemy, for the enemy’s power exceeds all of our imaginations…”
“I hereby declare that the na Guardian Alliance is officially abolished. From this mont on, we will have a new shared na, the Androda Galaxy Alliance. Our na is destined to echo throughout the entire universe. And now, let us take this first step and wipe out the Sweepers Civilization!”
