Chapter 97 Beyond the Void
The news of the discovery of the "Lost Hive Empire" became another big event in the galaxy.
Because the civilizations did the math and found that the galaxy has grown from the original four lost empires to the current seven.
It seems that each lost empire has its own uniqueness, and at the same time, it also has technology and strength that ordinary civilizations cannot imagine.
Based on the characteristics of the galactic civilization, many people have guessed whether there are other lost empires that have not yet been discovered?
But this matter is still far away from them, and what they need to pay attention to now is the conflict between the lost empires.
The war between "Watcher" and "Farstrider" shows no signs of abating.
Although the "Watcher" is playing against the "Farwalker" as a whole, the "Farwalker" who sticks to its own territory has also shown extraordinary resilience.
Compared with the "Watcher" fleet that requires psychics to operate, the casualties of the unmanned fleet of "Farstrider" are not distressing.
Even if it is a few ships for one, the "far traveler" still thinks that they are making money, because the cultivation of psychics is a time job, and those "chosen people" who are born with knowledge are only a few after all.
As expected by the "far traveler", the "Watcher" began to relax the frequency of engagement with them. Every warship became very cautious and more concerned about survival.
This also led to a decrease in the frequency of battles, but the time of battles has been extended a lot. It is possible for several warships with high mobility to fight in a galaxy for a few days.
The "Farwalkers" chuckled at this situation, because they were just trying to stall for time.
But "The Watcher" is also surprisingly stable, and he doesn't look in a hurry, as if he already has a well-thought-out plan.
At this time, the holy places of the "Watcher" seem to have lost their original noble and sacred appearance.
The "Watchmen" who originally prohibited other civilizations from colonizing the Holy Land seem to have ignored the status of the Holy Land in their hearts. Giant buildings with the "Holy Land Planet" as the core frame are slowly rising around the Holy Land.
Even the "Pure Treasure" that has become a highly poisonous planet is the same, as if the ecology of the Holy Land is not important, what matters is their special location.
"Virtual Siphon", this is the name given to this giant structure by the high priest.
By imitating the relics left by the "Apocalypse" on the holy land, they created a giant architectural version of this equipment, which can expand the virtual realm crack left by the "Apocalypse", thereby accelerating the extraction of virtual realm energy.
As the high priest, wouldn't he know the price of signing a contract with the existence in the void?
Of course he knew, but he had the chance to win.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to use the method of destroying the Holy Land to provoke the emotional fluctuations of the believers, and use this power to achieve his purpose.
"...how is the progress of the project?"
"Most half has been completed, part of the structure has begun to work, and a steady stream of psionic energy is being drawn from the void to our universe."
Listening to the answer of the believer in the psionic link, the high priest nodded, and then fell into silence again.
He has always been like this from time to time recently, but people think he is sad about the departure of the "Prophet".
After all, everyone knows that he is the friend of the delisted "Prophet" Zaklan. With good intentions, the believers think that he is blaming himself for failing to stop Zaklan from being bewitched by the evil god.
The high priest was whispering to himself again, the spiritual power in his body fluctuated unprecedentedly, and then subsided quickly.
It would have been a surprise to anyone who was there, because his psychic powers had reached a certain level of psychic power that had never been reached in the entire history of "Watchmen".
If he wants to reach the level of "Apocalypse", then he must use all the power of the Void Realm, even if he has to pay a very heavy price for it.
"...It will be all right, I have never made a mistake, and this time will be the same...Others may not understand, but they must obey..."
With the completion of the giant building known as the "virtual siphon", the former holy land was wrapped under a strange metal frame.
Psychic energy, like substance, was extracted from an invisible crack, and then compressed to a place for energy storage through countless processes.
On the "Walled Garden", the statues of the "Holy Ones" surrounding the obelisk were overturned and even shattered by the spiritual energy surging like a tsunami.
Only the statue, which is completely different from all other "saints" in appearance, swayed slightly, but still stood upright, as if laughing at this stupid behavior.
Just as the "Watchers" were using the "Void Siphon" to extract the energy of the Void through the relics left by the "Apocalypse", the old opponent "Farwalker" who was beaten by them also carried out a certain task on the home planet. The foundation construction of a megastructure framework.
There is a reason why this civilization with in-depth research on machinery and prosthetics became a lost empire.
Ancient history is one point, and a powerful fleet is one point. In addition to these, there is another more important reason, that is, they have "ancient databases".
Those "databases" are all concentrated on a certain ordinary planet, but when the "far traveler" discovers them, it is certain that these "ancient databases" are the legacy left by the "Apocalypse",
This is the secret of the "far traveler". They will move from the ring world to their current location. Although there are factors of fleeing because they cannot defeat the enemy, they are very particular about the choice of location.
For this reason, they did not hesitate to rebuild their homes in this place, and have been trying to crack the "database" for a long time.
Of the scientists they want to come, only the top and most trusted part will come to the "database", and they will never leave this planet again, trying to get from the "database" almost all the time. Extract data from.
The information extracted from here, even if there is only a little bit, is extremely precious to the "far traveler".
During this long lost age, they devoted almost all of their body and mind to this matter, in order to know the secret of the "Apocalypse".
Until not long ago, they successfully extracted a very useful piece of data from it, and believed that this was the path taken by the "Apocalypse".
So they first decided to eliminate their old opponents, in case they were disturbed in the process of taking this path.
It's just that they didn't expect that they couldn't beat each other and had to hide in the territory. But after calculating the time, they decided to start the plan ahead of time, proclaiming their greatness to the entire galaxy while their old rivals were liquidated.
And this technology, which they regard as the key, is also in Li Wenyuan's database unfortunately.
【Natural Disaster Plan】
【Technology level: 7】
[Introduction: After in-depth research on the virtual environment, we confirmed that the large-scale disturbance events that occurred here will have an impact on the virtual environment. According to existing theories, a surge of energy large enough may tear the barrier between the two planes, and directly let the Void fall into our hands, which is much more powerful than a siphon can extract. Then, maybe we can try to completely take the power in the Void as our own, and then go to a higher world? 】
【Special Note: This thing may destroy the galaxy. We have made it so colorful here with great difficulty. You shouldn’t do this, right? 】
This is one of the technologies that Li Wenyuan unearthed a long time ago. It is even marked with a red skull in the technology tree, which is enough to illustrate its danger.
But since this thing was basically useless to him, Li Wenyuan soon forgot about it.
Although he wants to find "End of Reincarnation" to settle the score, but he doesn't have the use of this dangerous technology for the time being. The "Break into the Void" brought by "Psychic Beacon" should be enough for him to trouble "End of Reincarnation" up.
The current galaxy is still in good condition, and the virtual world is also in good condition, which shows that at least human beings have not practiced this technology in the galaxy.
As for whether other river systems may suffer, he is not sure.
"...This thing sounds dangerous even by its name. If someone does this, it will become a public enemy of the galaxy, right?"
