Chapter 371 The Gear of the Void
While the "Assimilation Fighters" were sorting out the information researched from the "Egg of the Void", the "Hunter" civilization also started their actions after a long absence.
After the battle with the "Silencer", the battle damage made their high-level officials feel a little embarrassed.
Although the warships actually dispatched are only a small part of their strength, they are not even counted as the main force, but they are only used for "entertainment".
However, when facing "civilizations far inferior to them", their ideal battle situation should be to defeat the enemy utterly, rather than a one-to-one battle loss as it is now.
They couldn't even confirm whether the battleships of the "Silencer" were destroyed. Those pure energy battleships were just a luminous body. After dissipating, they couldn't even find a wreck. They couldn't confirm whether they just changed their form. run away.
In this regard, after a series of discussions, although these high-level officials have not changed their strategy, they have upgraded the warships dispatched abroad. In the next new battle, these warships will give the enemy a huge surprise.
And the legend in "Hunter"—"Legendary Stalker" has also obtained the authority to lift the huge restrictions on the original car. Now his "Stalker Battleship" is the best in the entire civilization. Once again embarked on the road of "hunting".
Although he has an establishment in the legion, "stalkers" like them have unique rights. The most obvious is that they generally don't need to participate in battles between main fleets, and they are more used to snipe and kill high-value targets "Assassins" or "Bounty Hunters" exist.
At the same time, they are often responsible for using high technology to destroy the morale of the enemy, destroying a fleet by one person and one ship to highlight the gap between civilizations, so that it is easier for the "hunters" to extract the energy of the entire galaxy.
In this galaxy, only when encountering the battleships of the "Silent Ones", these "Stalker" troops will gather to carry out the "glorious battle" in their hearts.
This is a popular tradition in their civilization, but it does not originate from the "culture" of "defeating the strong" inherited from the indigenous period, but a "bad habit" developed after traveling in the interstellar for a long time ".
The origin is a "hunting game" held by a rich man in a certain civilization when they were still in an ordinary interstellar civilization era.
A group of recruited mercenaries will go to the indigenous civilization or the interstellar civilization that is much weaker than them according to the "rules of the game", and start a "hunt" with limited means.
Sometimes some important people are targeted, and whoever can complete the assassination first is the winner of the "game", and sometimes the number of hunts is simply used as the final evaluation criterion.
In this process, there are many cases where the "prey" kills the "hunter", but the "hunter" civilization has no tradition of respecting the winner. They will only use more powerful weapon technology to "taint" the "prey" of the game. "The slaughter was exhausted.
This tradition has spread to the entire civilization with the increasingly smooth expansion and war of the "Hunter" civilization. For these "winners", they always need some unique pastimes to show their noble status.
In the end, the entire civilization enjoyed the feeling of hunting prey, and they liked the look of watching the low-ranking people struggling to survive, but still unable to escape the collapse of despair.
Even the "silent ones", in their minds, are no different from ordinary civilizations, and belong to the category of "low-level civilizations".
Although they have had little time for this kind of "hunting game" since the start of large-scale energy collection, some of them will still try to revive this ancient "tradition" in their spare time of attacking the galaxy.
These people became various "stalkers", and they were awarded titles based on their "hunting records".
Their mission is to hone their skills, defeat opponents beautifully with weapons of the same level, and then make images and spread them among civilizations to relieve the people's urge to hunt.
"Legendary Stalker" is such a "stalker" title, and it is the most famous "stalker" in the "stalker" group that has won the title of "legend".
Due to the unknown "cage" covering the galaxy temporarily preventing the advancement of civilization, and the high-level officials seem to attach great importance to certain secrets in this galaxy, even if millions of years have passed, the "Legendary Hunter" has changed. Generation after generation, they have not confiscated the galaxy, nor have they extracted the energy here.
He doesn't understand what the top management is doing, so he can only obey.
So these "stalkers" quietly used weapons that were not restricted for "hunting", but their original weapons, and went to the place where the "Silencer" warship was haunted according to the intelligence, preparing to use a A "gorgeous" hunt brings new spiritual food to civilization.
At this time, Li Wenyuan also made a new development about "Void" from "Egg of the Void".
A technology that can establish a weak "connection" with the "Void" has been excavated from the "Eggs of the Void". The "Assimilation Fighter" who studied it found that these "Eggs of the Void" can maintain a stable and controlled state, which has a lot of potential. Much of it is by virtue of the Tao's tenuous connection with "the void."
If there is no such connection, the "void" part of these "void eggs" will lose connection with the "void", and then gradually be assimilated by the nature of this universe, and finally become an ordinary substance here.
While the researchers traced the source of this "connection", they found that the source of this thing may come from an unexpected place-that is, the "big wound".
When Li Wenyuan got the news, Li Wenyuan was even a little shocked, because these "void eggs" were made by "hunters", and the "void" part of them was also attracted by "hunters".
If the source points to the "exile" galaxy, then he will think that it is pointing to the "hunter"; and if it points to somewhere in the distant starry sky, then he will think that it is pointing to the parent galaxy of "hunter".
But in the end, it pointed to the "big wound", which he did not expect at all, because the "hunter" did not originate from the civilization here.
However, Li Wenyuan always felt that this was not the case.
And just when he was about to return to the "Exile" galaxy to test whether this "void connection" could allow him to understand the secrets in the "Great Wound", a small time anomaly caught his attention.
From establishing contact with the "Silencer", to entering the "Exile" galaxy, to installing the "Invisibility Stand" to explore the "Great Wound", and then leaving the galaxy to receive information from the "Assimilation Fighter", this time will not exceed A year, and most of that was spent monitoring the Big Wound.
However, after he reconfirmed the date of the galaxy submitted by "Assimilation Fighter", he found that five years had passed.
Before the consciousness left from the "exile" galaxy, he also experienced a period of "memory synchronization". He thought it was due to the error caused by the distance of the galaxy.
And for the controller of an interstellar civilization, the time gap of a few years will not cause too much sense of separation at all, so he didn't pay much attention to this matter.
However, now he has confirmed that the time flow inside the "Exile Place" galaxy is inconsistent with the outside world! Just like those spaceships he entered the event horizon of the black hole.
"I said how did the 'Assimilation Fighter' come to fruition so quickly..."
Li Wenyuan's thoughts turned rapidly, and he suddenly realized that he had overlooked an important question here, that is, how long has the "hunter" been here?
In the records left in the Huanyu Enterprise galaxy, "Hunter" lost contact more than two thousand years ago.
But if the time flow rate of the "exile place" is different, then the time they pass inside will be different.
Then, he got the result from the mouth of "The Silent One".
"'Hunter'? Judging from the news from the 'Exiles', the 'Hunter' has been here for at least three million years..."
This huge time difference made Li Wenyuan feel bad, because according to his experience, the flow of time here is not so fast. The difference in the flow of time between one year and five years, two thousand years and three million years is unbelievable.
"Did someone affect the 'time' here? What is on the periphery is not a 'cage', but a more terrifying 'isolation'?"
Li Wenyuan thought of the "curtain". In the "curtain", the laws have been specially modified by humans, and some unexpected things can be achieved. Is it the same here?
He hurriedly returned to the spaceship left behind in the "Great Wound", and used the "Void Connection" to communicate with those subspace cracks.
An almost undetectable "void connection" diffused from those cracks in the subspace. At first, it rushed in all directions, but when it traveled to a certain extent, it suddenly gathered and all rushed to Li Wenyuan's spaceship.
At this moment, the universe seems to be dimmed, the stars have lost their brilliance, and the matter has lost its form of existence. Everything is moving away, and only some kind of dark life with the impression of "creature" exists in this "void". .
In a glimpse, Li Wenyuan seemed to see some numbers flashing in the "void". It seemed to be an illusion, but it had a huge sense of oppression that made people unable to breathe.
Then time began to flow backwards, and after the incomprehensible scene, it seemed to be the scene of this "exile place" galaxy.
At this time, a huge data stream is pouring into Li Wenyuan's memory from an unknown place through the "Void Connection", and countless messages are flashing in his virtual world.
It looks messy and numerous, but none of them is a red flag.
But Li Wenyuan doesn't notice this now, because through the "void connection", he seems to have seen what happened in the "exile place" from the "void".
A certain powerful civilization that ruled this galaxy seemed to have gone mad, and wiped out all the creatures in the entire galaxy, without letting go of any living creatures.
Countless civilizations and creatures perished at this stage, but they still failed to stop the crazy behavior of this powerful civilization.
Li Wenyuan doesn't know who this civilization is, but he always has a premonition that he will get an unexpected answer next.
A certain indigenous civilization that had been helped by this powerful civilization did not resist, but quietly waited for the destruction to come. They felt that this seemed to be a kind of reward, in order to repay the kindness they had always received.
And then the destruction came on time.
A historical recorder of this civilization stood at the end of the destruction, even though the shock wave was close at hand, he was still writing hard.
And it reads: "On X, X, XXXX, my civilization was destroyed in the hands of the 'recorder'."
The scene ended here, and Li Wenyuan also recovered from the infusion of information, and then realized an amazing thing.
This galaxy is the origin of the "Recorder".
