【Stellar Destruction Announcement ......】

……

In an intermediate-mass star system near the outer edge of the river system, satellites scattered in the near-orbit of each planet and terrestrial radio stations on planets are always in operation to receive radio messages from outside the stars.

This is the Dessa's home star system, and messages from outside the star system have been receiving since several years ago.

These regular radio signals from outside the star system naturally attracted the attention of the Desatic civilization, who constantly collected these radio messages and tried to decipher them.

As time passed, the texts of the information received became more and more abundant, and the difficulty of deciphering them was greatly reduced by the accumulation of a large number of texts, and it took the Desa people several years to complete the decipherment work.

After deciphering it, this information was questioned by the Desarian society, because the content of the information was really unacceptable to them - for unknown reasons, the stars were being destroyed faster than the speed of light, and this information was to announce the coordinates of these destroyed stars, and the scope of influence after the destruction.

But how is this possible? Not to mention whether such a large-scale stellar destruction is really feasible, just looking at the coordinates of these destroyed stars, it is not difficult to find that these stars are dying at the speed of light, which alone violates the principle that the speed of light cannot be exceeded by the theory of relativity.

Therefore, the Desatic society did not completely believe the content of the radio messages, but maintained a skeptical attitude, and various conspiracy theories were rife.

For example, the aliens want to deceive the Desians with this false information, so that the Desians can move their home star system en masse, and then they can complete the occupation of their home star system without a single soldier.

There is also the test hypothesis, aliens have long been concerned about their Desa people, every time the progress of the Desa civilization will set a test to test whether the ideology of the Desa people corresponds to the material level of civilization, and the current radio information is that the aliens are testing whether they have the ideology corresponding to the material level of space civilization, they should vigorously advocate love and peace, cherish every life, so as to pass the test and smoothly enter the big family of space civilization.

Among the many speculations, the only one that is closer to the truth is that the destruction of the stars is due to the war of high-level civilizations in the universe, but unfortunately, this speculation is not very accepted by the mainstream of the Desa society, but is only a relatively marginal third-rate hypothesis, and the rebutter can give hundreds of examples to argue that this is not a cosmic war.

For example, one of the most famous rebuttals in Dessaan society is the justification for space war – what is war for? It's to compete for resources, the stars are all destroyed, and the planets can still exist? In addition to the nebula, there are stellar wreckage, even if the alien civilization can really reach such a terrifying technological level, they will only get a thousand holes in this kind of war.

The fundamental reason for their suspicions is that the barrier of the speed of light restricts the transmission of information, so they have not observed which stars have been destroyed, even if the neighboring stars are destroyed, they will need to learn the information after a few years, and those stars that are one or two thousand light years away will be destroyed, it will take a thousand or two thousand years to confirm through observation.

Stubborn academics need to witness the destruction of a star before they can truly believe the message and try to change the prevailing opinion of society.

However, then again, even if the Dessars knew the truth, it would be very difficult for them to survive with the current level of technology in their civilization.

Civilizations trapped in the cage of the speed of light are all ants, no exceptions.

On the whole, the Desa civilization was relatively peaceful, and there was no social unrest due to the radio broadcasts received by the collectors.

However, this only lasted until the gatherers arrived.

In the home star of the Dessars, the major satellites and radio base stations suddenly received a very powerful pulse signal, which almost disintegrated the radio reception device of their entire civilization in an instant.

What's more, this powerful pulse signal source actually came from inside their home star system, not somewhere else!

To put it in a more figurative way, in a brief second, a medium-mass pulsar suddenly appears in the star system, and then suddenly disappears.

This doesn't look like a natural phenomenon in any way, and it doesn't require much in-depth analysis, and the Desians can naturally deduce that it was an alien cause.

Subsequently, the restoration of civilization's observation function confirmed their suspicions.

A large number of large entities have appeared in the star system, and the volume of these entities has exceeded the Dessa's perception of the strength of materials, and the largest of them has reached the size of a red dwarf!

The impact on the Desa people is unparalleled, if you have to describe it, that is, as soon as their eyes are closed and opened, there is an extra red dwarf star in front of them out of thin air!

In contrast to the panic of the Desa, the gatherers of the initiators were methodical, and the leaders of the clusters assigned tasks to each of their clans, exchanging information one after another.

"There are no anomalies in this star."

"There are not many stars left to search for, so everyone should be vigilant and be prepared for possible and unexpected situations."

"Understood."

The swarm arrives at a new destination, and the huge energy generated by the annihilation of matter is converted into ultra-high-voltage current, and the powerful radar waves are released outward, thus obtaining the approximate environmental information of the star system in a short period of time.

"This is a stellar system with civilization, and it is beginning to prepare for diplomacy in contact with individuals."

"The Star-Swallowing Megastructure is ready to be received by a vassal civilization."

Compared to the past, the current gatherers are more relaxed and persecuted in receiving vassal civilizations.

In the past, even if there were indigenous civilizations that wanted to belong to the amoeba to survive, but because the planetary superluminal mechanism needs to be built on the spot, it takes a lot of time, so many times it is actually too late, like the Dalí people, who are considered a few lucky people, the great destruction gave them more than a month, and the gathering cluster just happened to have more than sufficient material reserves.

It's different now, the construction of the Star-Swallowing Megastructure only takes a few days, and the vassal civilization and its home planet can be taken away by the Gatherers.
