Milky Way, galactic heart.

Near the cantilevered area of the constellation Cecilius, the void here is very bright, with dozens of stars on average every cubic light-year.

And that's just the edge of the galactic core, where the density of stars is higher if it's a more inner region.

But it is precisely because of this that the closer the area is to the core of the Silver Heart District, the more desolate it becomes.

At the edge of the Silver Heart District, this is the habitable zone where life is born.

The Silver Heart Region is like the tropics of the Earth, and there are indeed many life planets in the outer regions of the Silver Heart.

However, there is generally no powerful civilization on the living planets here, but all the living planets are in a relatively primitive stage.

Suddenly, a huge silver-gray planet floated out of the void in the chaotic gravitational field, and was attracted by a red dwarf star.

The radius of the silver-gray planet is about 2.6 times that of Earth.

Soon, the silver-gray planet slowly approached the red dwarf, and then the silver-gray planet seemed to turn into mercury, wrapping around the surface of the red dwarf.

It wasn't until eight days later that the surface of the red dwarf completely turned silvery-gray, and no trace of radiation energy leaked out of the interior, apparently absorbed by the silver-gray planet's shell.

More than a dozen red dwarfs around have also been wrapped in silver-gray planets one after another.

More than a dozen huge spaceships also appeared around the silver-gray planet.

Inside one of the spaceships, several silver-gray spheres floated in the cabin.

"This grazing, it takes 588 kitts (about 801 years), do you have anything else?" A silver-gray sphere emits electromagnetic waves and asks its companion.

Another silver-gray sphere spun its body: "Part of the siren set up in the Baisse cantilever has been destroyed, it should be that there is a space war over there, do you need me to go over and investigate?" ”

"Baisai cantilever? Yes, you can go and check it out! It is estimated which new civilization is it, let them settle down a little, otherwise they will be completely destroyed. ”

"Good!"

One of the silver-gray orbs turned into a puddle of liquid and disappeared into the chamber.

Then a spacecraft deploys the space warp system, taking advantage of the difference in space warp before and after, and the speed quickly increases by 60% of the speed of light, rapidly advancing in the direction of the cantilever of the constellation.

As the spacecraft flew rapidly, a series of gravitational waves were left on its trajectory.

And those spaceships that are still in place are still guarding the dozen or so silver-gray planets.

These silver-gray planets are planetary-level silicon-based creatures specially cultivated by the Shepherd civilization, the Light-Devouring Star Beasts.

The Light Devourer is a silicon-based creature that was artificially modified by the Star Pastor civilization that can devour the energy of a star and then convert that energy into a special dark energy crystal.

This is also the reason why the Shepherd Star Civilization grazes the Light Devouring Star Beast, after all, the behavior of civilization and the behavior of individuals are actually much the same.

If there were no interests, the Shepherd civilization would not have transformed this planetary creature.

The importance of dark energy crystallization to the herding civilization is like that of oil, gas and coal in the Earth era.

The space distortion engine of the Shepherd civilization, its energy is dark energy crystallization, if there is no dark energy crystal, then the Shepherd civilization has no way to start the space distortion engine.

In addition, dark energy crystals can also be used as raw materials for some special weapons.

This is also the foundation of the survival of the Shepherd civilization in the galactic galaxy's silver heart region, after all, the silver heart region is not only their herding star civilization.

Just when the herding team of the Star Empire was grazing the Light Devouring Star Beasts here.

About 300 light-years away in the void, a triangular spaceship was watching them secretly.

Interior of a triangular spaceship.

"Captain Fass, those guys are grazing, and 45 hours ago, a Starridden ship left the direction of ......"

The bodies of these communicating creatures resemble a glittering mist.

One of the fogs flipped for a moment: "Keep monitoring, as for the spaceship that left, if I'm not mistaken, they should be going to the Baiser cantilever." ”

"Baisai cantilever? Is it to investigate that new civilization? ”

A reddish-gray mist emitted a special fluctuation: "That new civilization is not simple, hehehe......"

"What if it's not simple? If you anger the Shepherd civilization, they will definitely perish. Another dark green mist mocked.

"Shall we make a move? After all, the enemy of the enemy, maybe you can take advantage of it? ”

"Hehe, it's just garbage, there's no need for that."

Soon the discussion inside the triangular spacecraft fell silent.

And the star herders who were grazing the Light Devouring Star Beasts were also secretly vigilant about the surrounding situation.

After all, when they were grazing the Light Devouring Star Beast before, they had been attacked by hostile forces, and although they were not robbed of the Light Devouring Star Beast and the dark energy crystals in the end, they also suffered heavy losses.

Cultivating a Light Devouring Star Beast requires a lot of resources and time, and the current Star Beast is only more than 10,000 Light Devouring Star Beasts.

These Light Devouring Star Beasts are the foundation of the Star Empire civilization.

Although there was no sign of an enemy on the surface nearby, these starherders did not take it lightly.

……

The other side.

The Star Finder spacecraft that went to the Centiaceus cantilever to reconnoiter was also rapidly approaching the Silicon Clan's control area in the constellation Centius.

Using the alarms hidden in the cantilever of the Celestial Civilization, the Herder quickly investigated something.

Inside the cockpit of the Shepherd spacecraft.

Famu's brain nucleus was thinking quickly: "That civilization turned out to be from the Kaifuya cantilever (Orion cantilever), and their technical level seems to be not low!" ”

The Shepherd civilization naturally has a certain understanding of the five cantilever arms of the Milky Way.

Although the Shepherd civilization does not look down on the resource-poor cantilever area, it does not mean that they will let the cantilever area go unchecked.

This time, Famu came to the Xianying Constellation to investigate, but it was not on its own initiative, but it received an order from the headquarters.

The Shepherd civilization not only leaves a large number of sirens in the five cantilever zones, but also regularly reviews the cantilever zones.

Originally, it would have been about 40,000 Earth years before the next review.

However, this time, the large-scale war of the cantilever of the Celestial Constellation made the Shepherd civilization feel a little unusual, and it quickly advanced the time of review.

Although the sirens were unable to gather a lot of information, the explosion of a large number of stars in the cantilever of the constellation Immortal, as well as the sudden chaotic gravity, made Famu and the herding civilization behind him feel uneasy.

However, there is also a limit to the speed of the spaceship of the Shepherd civilization.

Even with a space-warping engine and dark energy crystals, there is still no way to sail faster than light.

In this case, Famu became more and more uneasy.

At this time, this Shepherd spacecraft is still 7,364 light-years away from the nearest human civilization territory.
