I have to say that Xue Qiang's words directly stunned everyone in the entire conference room.

Of course, there are quite a few people who wonder why it works.

In this regard, Xue Qiang also explained that the various interrogation drugs or technical methods used first, because ghosts are completely different from human bodies, either they do not work, or they play a completely different role.

How to put it, it's like some poisonous humans will die if they touch it, but other species may not.

In the same way, there are some things that are not harmful to the human body, but when they encounter other species, they can be highly toxic.

It's the same thing.

Originally, according to Xue Qiang's idea, he planned to wait for the Academy of Sciences to thoroughly study the body of the ghost, and then develop a drug specifically for the ghost, similar to the elixir of truth.

But as a result, his subordinates had a whimsical idea to see what the ghost would look like after eating that thing.

What no one expected was...

After the ghost eats it, its effect is completely different from that of humans, but it shows an effect similar to that of a truth spitting potion, which is like a dog.

However, this crooked blow also made Xue Qiang's work a lot easier, and he immediately asked for a lot of information.

First, the ghost does not have a home planet, let alone the concept of territory, territory, etc.

This is a nomadic existence similar to the era of the human home planet, the sea of stars is their grassland, and those planets with intelligent beings are their pastures.

Second, they don't know exactly how many ghosts there are, at least...

The ghost being questioned didn't know.

According to him, there are many, large and small forces in the ghosts, and in each of them, there must be a queen.

The Queen is not only the only female in the power, but also the most powerful of the spirits.

And these forces, large and small, will even continue to fight against each other, kill each other's queens, and include the ghosts under their command into their own forces.

Third, the three ghosts captured so far, as well as the fleet of ghosts that fought the First Fleet in Sylvie, belong to the queen named Sarna.

Its sphere of influence spans one hundred and eighty light-years, and there are 68 intelligent civilizations in the region.

As for the number of troops, there are a total of 680 ghost warships, and in addition to the 183 that have been destroyed so far, there should be 497 more.

Last but not least.

That's...

Wraiths eat a lot!

That's right, it's about the amount of food.

The base lifespan of a ghost is only about 30 years.

It's short, isn't it?

However, due to their special body structure and the organs that can suck life, they can constantly replenish themselves by plundering the life force of other living beings.

"The Sword Comes"

In other words, as long as they don't go hungry, their lives are almost eternal.

But there's also a big problem here, and that's what was just said...

The ghost eats too much.

If an average creature absorbs its vitality for hundreds of years, it can only replenish its own vitality for a few months.

Thus, a serious problem arises.

The number of ghosts is huge, and if you rely on this to replenish your vitality, then all the civilizations in the entire Big Magellanic galaxy will not be able to support a race of ghosts at all.

That's why the ghosts use the dormant device, and they only come out once every 10,000 years, when the civilizations in their ranches have been hunted to less than 10% and can no longer supply enough life force...

The ghost will use the hibernation device to begin a deep sleep.

It wasn't until tens of thousands of years after those civilizations had multiplied that they reawakened and hunted again.

After hearing this, all the elders attending the meeting were shocked and inexplicable.

There is still such a form of civilization.

"Minister Xue, what about the origin and reproduction methods of ghosts?"

Soon, after coming to his senses, a crucial question was asked.

Seeing this, everyone also looked at Xue Qiang.

After all, they were just as curious about it.

However, Xue Qiang's answer was only three words.

"I don't know!"

"Don't know?"

"That's right, at least the ghosts we captured, they don't know how they were born, or the history of the ghosts."

Well, that's kind of weird.

Isn't it strange to say that you don't know history, but you don't know how you were born?

"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the information we have asked so far, this ghost has been around for more than 100,000 years, and in these more than 100,000 years, no new ghost has been born in Sarna's forces."

"And the increase in numbers is only plundered after defeating the other queens."

What, for more than 100,000 years, there have been no offspring?

In other words, how many ghosts were there more than 100,000 years ago, and how many are there now?

No, no, not to mention those who died as a result of the war between the ghosts, that is...

The overall number of the ghost race is really decreasing?

Isn't that a proper race, a race that will sooner or later exterminate itself?

"Everyone, I know what you think, regarding the question of ghost reproduction, the Ministry of Science has some preliminary conclusions, and let Dean Ling Ruoxuan answer the questions later."

Soon, Ling Ruoxuan also stood up.

"According to our physical research on these eight ghosts, there are too many artificial traces in their genes, in other words, this is not a naturally born intelligent race, but artificial!"

"Not only that, based on the available data, we can even be basically sure that these eight ghosts are all clones!"

What?

Human-made creatures?

And it's all clones?

What Ling Ruoxuan said was even more shocking than what Xue Qiang said just now.

"Dean Ling, are you sure?"

"It's not 100 percent sure, but in terms of the data we've gotten so far, that's the preliminary conclusion."

Shaking her head, Ling Ruoxuan replied.

"In his genes, we found a lot of artificial splicing traces, as many as hundreds of completely different gene fragments stitched together in a way that I couldn't understand."

"And it is precisely because of this that the ghost has many characteristics, such as powerful and incomparable strength, extremely fast speed, special organs that can release black mist, or the ability to suck life force, etc."

"It's a down-and-out, man-made..."

"Monster!"

Monster...

None of the people present would think that Ling Ruoxuan's words were inappropriate.

Isn't this just a monster?

Hundreds of different genetic fragments were spliced together to form the Ghost race.

It's a bit polite to say it's a monster.

So, what kind of civilization has created such a race?

What is the purpose?

For a moment, the conference room fell silent again.
