Chapter 927: The Invisible War

In the large-scale space-time structure of the universe, matter is showing a tendency to converge, and they are like islands, distributed in this endless sea of cosmic stars.

The Virgo Supercluster is one of the thousands of islands in the universe. There are tens of thousands of rivers in the Virgo Supercluster, and these many rivers are gravitationally brought together. The Flying Kite Galaxy plays one of the most important roles in this. On a macroscopic scale, even the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are affected by the gravitational pull of the Flying Kite Galaxy, although the distance between the two is measured in tens of millions of light-years.

The Flying Kite Galaxy is just that. It occupies more than a million light-years in this vast cosmic space, there are at least two trillion stars orbiting in it, in addition to stars, there are endless planets, dwarf planets, comets, asteroids and other celestial bodies, there are countless clouds of gas and dust in it, and its star birth rate reaches an astonishing rate of more than 20 a year -- roughly speaking, every month, two new stars are born inside it. In contrast, the Milky Way's star birth rate is about one per year, a difference of more than 20 times.

It's a breathtakingly vast world of stars. In Xiao Yu's theoretical system, such a huge river system can only be born from the collision of river systems. There may have been hundreds of river systems that existed here, and then they merged with each other to form this vast river system. This process is not fundamentally different from that of the Milky Way, because the Milky Way is also devouring its satellite systems. The Magellanic Stream, which stretches between the Great Magellanic Galaxy and the Milky Way, is the best proof of this. But when it comes to speed and efficiency, the Milky Way is far behind.

Perhaps, the extremely high rate of star formation in the Flying Kite galaxy also has something to do with these things. One thing is obvious. The fusion and collision of river systems disturbs the quiet clouds of gas and dust that exist within the river system, accelerating their convergence and giving rise to new stars. In addition, multiple river collisions will also have another consequence, the Flying Kite Galaxy has a very active galactic nucleus, with a large number of aging stars and gas clouds orbiting its central black hole, which is swallowed up by the central black hole at a very high rate. Thus unleashing an astonishing amount of energy and light. Unlike the quiet and dim central black hole of the Milky Way, the central black hole of the Flying Kite galaxy dominates the light that is almost as luminous as the entire river system.

Even. Xiao Yu speculated that the environment around the central black hole of the Flying Kite Galaxy had some similarities with the environment around the quasar, the most violent celestial body in the universe.

This will make it difficult for Xiao Yu to destroy it. But it doesn't matter. As long as there are no other people's obstacles. To complete this matter, it is just a matter of consuming some more energy and time for Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu's fleet had sailed into the vast river system, shuttling between different stars, feeling the exotic scenery at least fifty million light-years away from his homeland.

"The Shenzhou and Pegasus civilizations should be in this river system. But this river system is too vast, how can I find them? Xiao Yu thought silently, "Send a broadcast that is enough to cover the entire river system to contact them?" Well, don't do it. I'm certainly not the only enemy in this river system...... It's not a wise thing to do to expose my position ahead of time. Let's solve my task first. Then take your time to find them. ”

After arriving at the Flying Kite Galaxy, Xiao Yu did not stop his steps. Instead, it continues to sail at extremely high curvature towards the central black hole of the Flying Kite Galaxy. However, in the process of this voyage, Xiao Yu scattered a large number of interstellar probes, the number of these interstellar probes should be calculated in trillions, they have a small size and extremely high performance, and their concealment performance is also very good. Xiao Yu hopes to use these probes to find traces of Shenzhou and Pegasus civilizations, and it would be great if he could make some other discoveries in this river system, such as detecting a little bit of intelligence about the enemy he was about to face.

Xiao Yu hoped that when he faced his enemies, his probes could be spread all over the entire river system, so that he could roughly know all the movements in all areas of this river system. It's a huge project, and the number of detectors needed in the process is measured in the trillions. Xiao Yu had also tried similar moves before, but the exploration range of previous probes was not as wide as this one.

To achieve this goal, it would take Xiao Yu at least a thousand years of time. However, this kind of purely consumable time has no meaning for Xiao Yu, or a seventh-level civilization similar to Xiao Yu, or even an eighth-level civilization.

Xiao Yu's fleet is like an efficient seeding machine, sowing countless seeds as he walks. Xiao Yu has a lot of reserves of these probes, and Xiao Yu has already planned all of them when he was still on the journey. During that time, Xiao Yu was not resting quietly. Large-scale construction tasks are not just words.

At this moment, Xiao Yu is still more than 200,000 light-years away from the central black hole of the Flying Kite Galaxy. At such a distance, the brightness of the central black hole of the Flying Kite Galaxy is already like looking at the moon on Earth on a clear night. If it's the Milky Way, the central black hole won't be visible at all from this distance.

Part of the large-scale detection network has been laid, and now, a huge amount of detection data is being transmitted to Xiao Yu's mind every moment. During this time, Xiao Yu discovered some low-level civilizations - the number can be said to be scarce, which is not in harmony with the vastness of the Flying Kite Galaxy. It stands to reason that the Flying Kite galaxy should have more civilization bases. However, the number of civilizations in the Flying Kite galaxy is so scarce. Xiao Yu has not yet found an explanation for this.

In addition to these low-level civilizations, Xiao Yu also found the remains of some middle-level civilizations, including some broken warships, and some stars and planets that were obviously affected and destroyed, but Xiao Yu did not find the shadow of these middle-level civilizations. The shadow of the advanced civilization has not been discovered.

In Xiao Yu's division, levels 1 to 3 belong to low-level civilizations, levels 4 to 6 belong to intermediate civilizations, and levels 7, 8, and 9 are high-level civilizations. The civilization that Xiao Yu discovered was only a first- to third-level civilization that could not yet sail with curvature.

Xiao Yu didn't pay attention to these civilizations. Xiao Yu is trying to explore more things so that he can better grasp the future battlefield situation.

But the Flying Kite Galaxy was unusually quiet, unexpectedly quiet. Here, there is no atmosphere of imminent war, the stars are moving quietly, the planets are quietly orbiting the stars, everything is perfectly normal.

Xiao Yu continued to move forward while processing this huge data stream. In the process of continuous progress, gradually, some unusual signs were discovered by Xiao Yu.

Somewhere in the Flying Kite Galaxy, Xiao Yu's probe discovers a strange planet. It's weird because it's so smooth, it's like a white dwarf -- a typical white dwarf has a volume about the size of the Earth, and it doesn't rise or fall more than 100 meters above it. But this planet is not a white dwarf, Xiao Yu can be sure of this.

After discovering this strange planet, Xiao Yu's probe tried to get closer to observe it, but in the process of approaching, he lost the trace of the planet in a trance. It just disappeared into thin air, and I don't know where it went. Xiao Yu mobilized tens of thousands of probes to conduct a thorough search of this star field, but did not find it again.

In addition to this strange planet, in more corners of this river system, Xiao Yu found more unusual signs.

Some detectors have detected unusual gravitational fluctuations, calculated according to the current laws of physics, but have not found a star of commensurate mass at the calculated location. In some places, the speed of light seems to change suddenly, increasing or decreasing, creating some kind of fluctuation. Not only the speed of light, but also some other physical constants will undergo some unpredictable changes.

There is no pattern to where these anomalous phenomena occur, they may be here or there. Because Xiao Yu's detection network is too large, Xiao Yu can find these things by accident. Xiao Yu believes that there must be more such phenomena happening in places where his sight has not reached.

"Perhaps, there is a war going on somewhere I can't see." Xiao Yu thought silently, "This may be the battle of the eighth-level civilization level, and their battle is based on the rule level, which has been separated from the physical system of this universe. Quite possibly...... This is the eighth-level civilization on the rebel side and the eighth-level civilization on the side of the spokesperson and defender. ”

"Leave the things of the rules to the eighth-level civilization to do, and it can be seen that the things in the universe are left to me to do. I will complete the task of destroying the black hole in the center of the Flying Kite Galaxy, but this is not for your benefit, but for Chen Mo. Only Chen Mo can make me bleed and sacrifice, and you are not qualified. Xiao Yu thought lightly.

Xiao Yu had already arrived at his destination, and the distance between him and the black hole in the center of the Flying Kite Galaxy was less than a thousand light-years. But Xiao Yu found that from this distance, the central black hole of the Flying Kite Galaxy had disappeared. (To be continued......)
