“…… You've been digging for so long to dig up this thing? ”

Li Wenyuan looked at the earth that had been cut around, and showed a suspicious expression.

But Cooper and the professor nodded happily, took the drawings in their hands and said:

"Yes, we confirmed that this is indeed an ancient site, not a ruin."

"Based on the restoration, we believe that this is actually some kind of monumental structure. Analysis of the site materials has shown that the vast majority of the monument is made up of the remains of a single living organism. ”

"......" Li Wenyuan didn't know how to answer for a while, because this "ruin" covers an astonishing area of more than 600,000 square kilometers and can be easily seen with the naked eye in space.

And it was actually built from the remains of some kind of creature, so how big was this creature when it was alive?

The most incomprehensible thing for him is that such a huge building is actually used as a memorial?

"Also, we found an encrypted document from this ancient site and uploaded it to the database."

Cooper informed the guardians of the last information from the excavation of this ancient site, and then quickly moved on with the professor to the next site that needed to be excavated.

The excavation of this site is too bland, there are no thrilling mechanisms, there are no magical phenomena, there are no characteristics except for the large, and it is not interesting to dig it up at all.

For the two who are already accustomed to the excitement, it is like chewing wax, and they can't wait to start a new excavation work as soon as possible.

Li Wenyuan, who was just about to ask if he needed to take a vacation, saw their impatient appearance, he also shook his head and focused on the encrypted document.

The document was not cumbersome to encrypt, and he easily read its contents, which he soon discovered was an introduction to the memorial structure.

[25th year of the Ascension Era]

[We have observed a giant space creature approaching the solar system]

[Because of its overly bright body, we thought it was a star at first]

[However, based on the speculation of the gravitational anomaly caused by it, we found that its actual size is about the same as that between Mars and Earth, and it is not too large]

[Why can such a creature shine brighter than a star?] 】

[So before it was close to the range of the solar gravity well, we sent someone to conduct a comprehensive survey of it]

[This appears to be a space creature that feeds on stellar matter, and its high body density and unknown internal organs allow it to parasitize on the surface of the star, directly grabbing stellar matter without any influence]

[It always converts stellar matter into brighter light and releases it outward, and we speculate that this behavior is to attract its own kind, which may exist]

[Based on its habit of devouring stellar matter, we named it "Star Eater"]

[The Star Eater came straight for the Sun, so we dealt with it halfway through to prevent it from affecting the solar system]

[And part of its wreckage was collected by us to build such a memorial building, to commemorate our first proof that the universe is not alone]

The introduction ended here, and it also made Li Wenyuan understand that this building with a huge area is really just a memorial building.

"But it's also a little bit of a human past." Creatures that feed on the stars'? It's interesting, but how many of these curious cosmic creatures still exist in this galaxy? ”

“…… Let's continue to look for human relics first, if only each one could tell a little bit about the history of the past. Let me see what the next galaxy is...... The Botu Galaxy? ”

…………

"—the Botu Galaxy?" When Briening heard the name, he just glanced up at the men beside him, and once again changed back to his lazy appearance.

"I said I don't like to hear this useless stuff. The last guy has been sent by me to see the gate, do you have to send you to the mining to understand what it means to 'figure out the boss's mind'? ”

The subordinate was also terrified, but even so, he tried to convey the message to the boss in front of him:

"The observatory has confirmed that the culprit responsible for the previous extinguishing of the star is a 'Star Eater', and it is predicted that its next stop will be the Botu Galaxy, which is ...... Just around the corner of the Guardian's Lost Empire. ”

"......" Brening, who heard the key words, instantly straightened up, changed his previous lazy appearance, and looked at this subordinate with a serious face.

"It's a big thing to watch, and you're doing a good job! I am announcing that the total time you will need to work for the company without pay will be reduced to 5 years after today, to reward you for your bravery! ”

The subordinate was immediately surprised and delighted, and thanked Bryning for his cultivation.

Brianing, on the other hand, waved him away, pacing back and forth in the casino.

“…… The closest observatory to the Guardian is now my place, and other civilizations have set up observatories nearby, but they are still unfinished, which is an excellent opportunity to spread the word. ”

"The Lost Empire will not allow threats around it, and if the picture of the 'Guardian' destroying the Star Eater can be broadcast exclusively, it will definitely be able to attract a wave of corporate popularity, and by the way, promote the 'Guardian'."

"It's a great thing to kill two birds with one stone! No, I need to contact the directors immediately......"

As a result, a large amount of information exchange is once again circulating from here.

Some civilizations are vaguely aware of something, and they have also stepped up the construction of the observatory, but they still miss the opportunity compared to the Crebo, which is close to the water.

Almost the eyes of the entire galaxy are looking at an inconspicuous galaxy called "Botu", and some interstellar adventurers in the vicinity even go straight to it and take a stroll around, selling the situation inside at a high price, and making a final profit before the arrival of the Star Eater.

At the same time, the news of the existence of an indigenous civilization in this galaxy has also been known by many civilizations, but most of them do not care about it, they want to know how the "guardians" destroy the cosmic creatures that devour the stars.

Except for one special civilization: the Tinder Alliance.

"This group of mercenary global enterprises! They were so close, why didn't they save that indigenous civilization? Even if it's just to transfer part of their population! ”

"No need to be indignant, there's no way those cold guys would do such a thankless job. Our ship closest to the Botu system has departed, hoping to save the Star Eaters before they arrive. ”

There was an overwhelming stream of accusations in the capital system of the Tinder Alliance, scolding Crebo for not saving him from his death, and other civilizations gloating, while also asking for help from civilizations closer to Botu's system.

They were once an indigenous civilization that kept its last spark alive in a catastrophe, and it took a much longer time than other civilizations to barely stand on the stars.

That's why they're passionate about helping indigenous civilizations. Aboriginal only, of course.

The life or death of the interstellar civilization does not matter to him.

At the same time, because they are extremely radical in interstellar communication, but any interstellar civilization with an indigenous civilization in the territory of the country will be scolded by them dozens of times, so almost all civilizations have a bad relationship with them, and they will have to fight a war to solve the problem of values.

The Tinder Alliance is still trying to use their weak influence to attract the attention of other civilizations, but the scientific research ship controlled by the "Guardian" has quietly arrived in the interior of the Botu system, and is gradually approaching a planet where life is present.
