The leader of the Star Bandits, Ashami, is the leader of the Reverse Cross Bandits that crisscross the Southern Cross Field, and is said to have been the third son of the former consul of the Southern Star Republic, the most powerful interstellar civilization in the Southern Cross Domain.

A large part of the Star Thieves under his command are the elite of the Southern Star Republic's army, mainly active in the Southern Cross Star Domain, for the Southern Star Republic, they are not so much star thieves as rebels in the Southern Star Republic.

Of course, these problems left over from history are of no importance to the civilizations of other star fields.

Except for the parties involved, the melon-eating masses don't really care about the past of a star thief leader, they only know that according to the international star field danger investigation guide released by the Galactic Council last year, the reverse cross star thief group led by Asami has become the largest star thief group in the galaxy.

Even though they were active in the Southern Cross Domain most of the time, no matter the number of attacks on the merchants, the danger, and the losses caused to the major civilizations in the galaxy, Ashami and his members became the recognized largest star pirate group in the galaxy.

After all, the Southern Cross Field, as the interstellar shipping route connecting the most important north-south star fields in the entire Milky Way, is itself one of the two most important and busiest golden shipping routes in the entire Milky Way.

Therefore, even if Asami and they are only active in the Southern Cross Star Field, they have still become a thorn in the side of many interstellar consortia, or they are suspected of being thugs.

For example, the official document of the Southern Star Republic once accused the Reverse Doji Bandit Group of becoming more and more rampant, and the reason why many strikes were fruitless, was not because the Southern Star Republic was incompetent, or because the Reverse Doji Bandit Group was too cunning.

Instead, for the sake of profit, the entire Southern Star Republic and many civilizations in the Southern Cross Star Domain have become victims of the game of developed civilizations.

For the sake of their own interests, the developed civilizations in the Galactic Council condemned the barbaric cruelty of the Star Thieves, and urged the major civilizations in the Southern Cross Star Domain to join forces to fight against the Star Bandits.

But behind the scenes, they secretly supported many star pirate groups active in the Southern Cross Star Domain and the Pegasus-Big Bear Passage, including the Reverse Cross Star Pirates, otherwise, how could those star thieves be equipped with more luxurious and advanced warship equipment than the regular army.

Some have complained that they will never allow another civilization to have the opportunity to be their equal, or even have the potential to do so.

For example, 300,000 years ago, when the Southern Cross discovered the largest number of natural space jumps in the Milky Way, almost everyone could see that the Southern Cross would soon become one of the most important interstellar shipping lanes in the Milky Way.

As long as the major civilizations in the Southern Cross can unite, with the help of the geographical advantages brought by the interstellar route, it will be easy to rise a powerful regional civilization. Even if the civilizations in the Southern Cross are smart enough, they will easily be among the giants.

When commodities, technologies, people, and cultures from various civilizations in the galaxy circulate and collide in one place, it will stir up a brilliant flower of civilization.

This upsets them and is no longer allowed.

The essence of the existence of the Galactic Council seems to protect many of the original weak civilizations in the galaxy, but in fact it consolidates the rule of giant civilizations and stifles all possibilities of other civilizations.

A civilization that was supposed to have endless possibilities, but with the existence of the Galactic Council, there are only two possibilities left, either to rest on its laurels or to become a puppet civilization under the influence of a giant civilization.

The Galactic Council has been around for tens of millions of years, and they have been sitting in that position for tens of millions of years, and they will sit forever.

I have to say that this is indeed a kind of sorrow of civilization.

It seems that no matter what kind of civilization or race, in the end it will tend to homogenize infinitely and enter the strange circle of history.

Oligarchization has become the final outcome of civilization itself and between civilizational exchanges.

It feels like the entire starry sky, for example, the Galactic Council seems to be just a galactic version of the international pattern of the earth, which sounds a bit incredible.

With such a developed civilization, so many different civilizations and races, and even different life forms, why did the final development model be almost similar to the international situation that the earth once had?

But get rid of all kinds of metaphysical problems such as the essence of life, race, culture, ideology, etc., and return to the original and most essential direction.

The essence of the birth of any civilization is nothing more than a collection of interests of a group of individuals.

Unless all other forms of life have lost desire, something that life itself cannot abandon, then the development of any civilization in the universe is only a reproduction of the history of the earth.

The earth once felt that the universe was a huge dark forest, and the contact between civilizations seemed to be only war and destruction, showing the cruelty of the entire starry sky nakedly, and felt that that was the final appearance of the cosmic starry sky.

But in fact, even the so-called Dark Forest Theory is just what happened on Earth in the past.

Before the earth's civilization truly entered the modern era, it is impossible to count how many countries and nations on the earth have completely disappeared.

However, when civilization has reached a certain height, when the entire civilization has been freed from the most basic needs for survival, it will inevitably turn to higher spiritual needs, and simple destruction and war can no longer arouse the joy of life.

It's like when we were young, finding an ant nest and pouring water to kill swarms of ants, we would find it fun and not cruel.

Catch a cicada and lock it up and listen to it until it starves to death.

But when we grow up, this joy based on destruction and manipulation is no longer satisfying.

At least we don't feel happy to destroy or manipulate a swarm of ants, a cicada.

We need more exciting, fulfilling satisfaction to fill our growing desires.

Thus the power, wealth, and power that drive domination over one's own kind become the goal of all adults.

This is true for individuals, and it is also true for civilizations.

If you want to show glory and power, you must have enemies of the same level as a foil, otherwise it is difficult to get any fun from it.

Stripped of anything else, just from the perspective of human nature, then in the end the appearance of the entire universe is actually just a copy of the old days of the earth, and it does not seem to be a strange thing.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

Or it can be replaced, where there is intelligent life, there are rivers and lakes.
