The drone closest to the suspicious source, 10 light minutes away, flew at full speed for two hours, came to the vicinity of the suspicious source, filmed an astonishing scene, and fed back to the Dawn team's respective system computers, as well as to the Human Staff and the Supreme Council.

Information is classified as top secret and is forbidden to be released to the people of Dawn without the permission of the Dawn Team. What the intelligence showed:

In this cosmic space, a huge ring appeared, this ring is about 800 kilometers in diameter, and it is composed of neither rocks nor metal aircraft, but plants!

That's right, a plant, or rather, a huge wreath of vines with a diameter of 800 kilometers and a thickness of about 500 meters! It appeared in the universe so suddenly and without warning.

When this huge wreath appeared in people's field of vision, everyone was stunned and thought it was incredible. First of all, the universe is almost in a vacuum, the garland is a plant, and the plant is a living thing, and no matter how it appears, it is incomprehensible how it exists.

Before the General Staff and the Supreme Council had yet to express their opinions, the five members of the Dawn Group had already communicated with each other through the information stream.

Dongfang asked, "Who knows what this thing is?" ”

"I don't know," all four replied.

Shangguan asked: "Through drone detection, it can be shown that it has a strong vitality, so through judgment, it is likely to be a life form, I feel very puzzled, there is such a big life form in the universe, how can it suddenly appear in the universe." ”

Tang Yujie said: "There is nothing strange, there is a record in the historical materials of the system, in the summer of that year, and the envoy Wu Ruize fought against the star worm Glint. And the star worm is a space creature, so what can't be a space creature in this garland we see? ”

Liu Haoxuan said: "It just feels so abrupt, without any warning, how did it come all of a sudden?" ”

Bruce, who has always spoken little, said: "Sixth Master, does our machine heart have wormhole technology?" ”

Dongfang said: "It is true that there is such a technology, we are now a third-level machine heart, and the wormhole technology is a fourth-level and has not been unlocked, so we can't master this technology now." ”

Bruce said, "I mean, this wreath, could it have traveled through a hyperspace technology similar to a wormhole?" ”

Dongfang only thought about it slightly, and then said: "It's not that there is no such possibility, but there are many doubts. You must know that for us saints, wormhole technology is the heart of a fourth-level machine, and we are only at the third level now, so the civilization that has mastered wormhole technology must have a higher technological level than us.

"The third quadrant, desperately flying towards the garland, shows that it knows the secret of the garland, and the high-power signal released by the garland is also directed to the third quadrant, which was detected by our monitoring station.

"What is the relationship between the third quadrant and the garland? Has it mastered wormhole technology? The technology tree grows upwards in its entirety, so after a civilization has mastered wormhole technology, other corresponding technologies must also be mastered, so its combat effectiveness will rise a step higher than ours.

"But by all indications, the third quadrant does not master this technology, and if it does, it will not be afraid of us, and it will not run away for twenty years! So it can be speculated that the third quadrant and the garland are not the same civilization. So what does it have to do with garlands? Flying to it so eagerly, is it an alliance?

"Now the question is, is this garland an independent civilization? Is the Zerg civilized? Is there malice towards us? If it is a high-level intelligent Zerg civilization, it has its own way of thinking. If it's malicious, we'll have a hard time beating it just because it has wormhole technology. ”

"What then?" A few people asked.

Dongfang said: "Systematic comprehensive evaluation: 75% ...... of good and evil"

The degree of goodness and evil is an evaluation of other civilizations by the system computer, 50% is the median value, the lower the value, the greater the probability of malice, and conversely, the higher the value, the greater the likelihood of goodwill. Therefore, 75% of the degree of good and evil indicates that the other party is well-intentioned.

Dongfang said: "The criterion for evaluation is that the garland is only quietly there, and has not posed any threat to us so far, and if it is evaluated by wormhole technology, if it is malicious, it is entirely possible to attack us or summon troops from other places."

"There is also a suspicion that the third quadrant seems to be very aware of the wormhole function of the garland, and it can quickly reach a place in the universe through it, but after so many years, it has been almost 700 years since it left the mainland, and this is the first time it has been used. What does all this mean?

"My guess is: Garland belongs to a very strange Zerg civilization to us, this Zerg civilization, although it has strong technological capabilities, but its intelligence type is very low. This may seem a bit confusing to say, how do low-intelligence creatures master high-intelligence technology? One thing can be reasonably explained:

"That is, there is a more advanced god-level civilization hidden behind the garland, this god-level civilization may be Quake or a civilization of the same level as Quake, and we are just guinea pigs on the test bench of these god-level civilizations. As long as we don't offend them and do our show, it's fine. And the so-called performance is to develop yourself and eliminate other guinea pigs. ”

Regarding the experimental subjects of god-level civilizations, a long time ago, Summer had this idea, and today's East coincidentally thinks of this.

Regarding Dongfang's elaboration, Shangguan said: "Even so, we need to be cautious. ”

Dongfang said: "Understand, Nana, you drive all the mecha stationed on the earth, as well as the humans. There are also Liu Haoxuan, Tang Yujie, Bruce, the three of you, each leading a group of aircraft to pick up Nana. ”

Liu Haoxuan seemed to understand the meaning of the East, and said, "Sixth Master, what are you going to do?" We can't afford to be left behind. ”

Dongfang said: "Carry out the order!" Also, protect Dawn One from retreating! ”

Shangguan also quickly understood what Dongfang meant, he was going to lead the team to break the garland, and let the four of them lead half of the troops to deal with it in the back, which was equivalent to leaving all the possible dangers to himself.

So Shangguan also said: "Sixth brother, you can't do this! ”

Dongfang said without hesitation: "I have to do this!" The saints need to preserve their strength! ”

When Dongfang said this, he had already used the highest authority to make Liu Haoxuan's three-person group and the human beings of Dawn No. 1 all retreat. Liu Haoxuan and the others are the three of them, although they are also a central computer that combines man and machine, but in the saint system, they cannot resist the permission, and Dongfang has the highest authority.
