"We don't need you to do more complicated work, we just need your knowledge of your own civilization."

The Collectors replied after receiving the radio message from Connor, explaining why the entire Stellar System had collectively chosen Connor as a Lo Man.

"The Luo civilization has disappeared from this star system for 70,000 years, leaving very few traces, except for this obelisk and the positions of celestial bodies obtained through calculations, we know nothing about your civilization, which is not conducive to the in-depth investigation of the race."

Connor hesitated and asked.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Excuse me."

"Why are you so zealous in finding out the truth about the destruction of my home planet, and what good is it for you? Is it out of justice? Or compassion? ”

Connor didn't believe that the Gatherers would help him for such a reason, but he couldn't think of any other reason for the Gatherers to help him in this way, and he had asked this question in order to answer his own doubts.

"Justice? Compassion? The race doesn't take action because of such a thing, Selene does, it's just a consideration made by the race out of a sense of distress. ”

The Gatherers have shown Connor the Lotonian that they are so determined to find the truth about the destruction of the home planet of the Loren civilization.

"It is not easy for a planet to explode to form an asteroid belt, because the planet has gravity, as long as it does not exceed a certain threshold, no matter what kind of explosion does not blow the planet, gravity will ensure that the planet is always in a complete body."

"If the planet debris is not far apart, gravity will restore the debris to a complete planet, and based on these derivations, it is necessary to release the energy of the gravitational threshold of heavy rain to blow up a planet into an asteroid belt."

The formation of planets is the result of natural evolution, and on a large enough scale, gravity is the dominant force, so no matter what celestial bodies are, they are in the shape of a sphere, and if you want to blow up a planet, you have to fight against the gravitational pull of the entire planet, which requires more energy than pushing an entire planet.

"It is not uncommon for such a high level of energy to be released in the universe, such as supernova explosions, and the impact of high-density celestial bodies such as black holes and neutron stars, all of which can achieve the effect of exploding planets."

"But as you can see, apart from the explosion of the planets, there are no traces of these extreme cosmic disasters in the star system, so it can only be man-made."

"Such an aggressive civilization exists nearby, it is a very dangerous thing for the race, since they can destroy you, they can also destroy us, and the worst thing is that we still don't know anything about them, once they attack us, Amoeba will be very passive."

The actions of the gatherers are the same as ordinary people going out and seeing a dead person, the key is that this person is still shot, and the first reaction at this time is whether the murderer is still nearby? Will I be the next one to be shot?

"Your technology is so advanced, do you still need to worry about this?"

Connor didn't understand why the gatherers were so cautious, the technology level of the Luo civilization was not as good as that of amoeba, which also limited Connor's knowledge, and he couldn't deduce a weapon like a black hole bomb from the explosion of his home planet, let alone a supernova strike that was a large-scale kill of tens of light-years.

Looking at amoeba at the technical level of his own civilization, it is like an ant looking up at a giant, sailing near the speed of light, which belongs to the category of science fiction in the Luo civilization, how difficult it is to increase the speed of a massive object to close to the speed of light, and how huge the energy required.

The most important thing is that they can also achieve this near-light speed travel on a large scale, which means that they are fully capable of fighting a cosmic war that spans the scale of light years.

It seemed strange to Connor that a civilization like this would be destroyed by the bombing of a planet into an asteroid belt.

"We will be proud that our race is strong, but this is not a reason for our arrogance, in the duel of life and death, only those who are cautious and prepared enough can survive in the world."

"Trust us, we hope more than you that there will be a remnant of the Luo civilization after the planet explodes, so that we can know what happened 70,000 years ago."

It's not that he wants to help Connor the L. people, it's just that Amoeba, an alien civilization, made a decision based on reason and caution, which happened to chase Connor's wish.

This is very reasonable, far more reliable and more durable than actions based on the unilateral subjective will of compassion and justice, after all, this involves the interests of the amoeba itself, and it is not easy to change easily because of time and external forces.

Thus, Connor's heart settled.

"If that's the case, then I'm fine."

Time flies, and soon a year has passed, during which time, through the description of Connor of the Lotonian and the information in the main body of the spacecraft, the collectors have roughly restored the picture of the Loren civilization 70,000 years ago.

They are a social species that live on the grasslands, and after a certain thunderstorm, they received the fire, and since then the evolution of civilization has begun.

They began to eat cooked food, hunted large creatures in teams, and used fire against predators who could not be solved on their own, and soon, in nearly a thousand years, they conquered the steppe and became the overlord of the steppe.

Later, they began to build city-states, cut down plants in the woods, and transported large quantities of heavy stones from afar, and transported them to various parts of the steppe by rolling logs, and cities rose from the ground.

Then there was endless war, endless competition for resources, because there was not enough productivity, there was not enough food to meet the growing population base, so the only way to kill and grab food from other places was not to starve to death.

This kind of war has lasted for a long time, but the sphere of influence of this species is constantly expanding, and there are always some Luo people who hide in the mountains, swamps, dense forests, deserts and other places in order to escape the war, and then they are also in disguise to open up the wasteland for their own race.

As a result, the Luo people have completed the global occupation and become the overlord of the planet, with their organization of 10,000 people and cold weapons, no creature on the planet can fight against them.

After hundreds of thousands of years of exploration, the war was finally quelled, ignorance and superstition were replaced by science, and the first industrial country appeared on the planet.

Then the entire Luo civilization entered the era of technological leap, the first rocket lifted off to break through the atmosphere, and the Luo people for the first time really understood what kind of world the sky that had hung above their heads for hundreds of thousands of years.

The entire Luo civilization was excited, and in the hundreds of years since then, rockets have been launched one after another to explore the world beyond the planet, and satellites have appeared in the orbit of the planet to observe the heavens and stars.

Although there were some twists and turns, some countries announced their disintegration in the past hundreds of years, but this still did not change the original intention of the Luo people, who firmly marched into the deep space of the universe, and successively established bases on two satellites in orbit of their home planet.

The dwarf planet discovered by the collectors in the second orbital asteroid belt is the second moon of the host planet of the Los Angeles people, Cosan, and after the landing of the second moon, the Los people erected an obelisk on the surface to commemorate this great occasion.
