This is a "moat", or rather, a "Great Wall of the Universe".

It uses the simplest method, a long enough distance, to act as a "wall of sighs" separating the two star fields.

According to the results of the Sentinel Array scanned at the edge of this moat, the widest known point is at least 20,000 light-years, and the length directly cuts the spiral galaxy in half, which is more than 200,000 light-years long.

The central supermassive black hole, which is used to maintain the overall shape of the vortex, is divided into the "upper three spiral arms", with the separation of this moat, the "lower three spiral arms" will gradually be "thrown out" of the spiral galaxy under the rotation of this time, and only a few can be reunited with the spiral galaxy.

The "upper three spiral arms" will become the spiral arms of the vortex galaxy again, continuing to maintain the overall vortex form of the galaxy.

“…… What happened here? ”

Li Wenyuan was shocked by the appearance of this "natural moat", because judging from the observation results, the cutting surface of the "natural moat" was extremely smooth, as if something had directly "cut off" this piece in a short period of time.

However, the length of more than 200,000 light years is cut to the point, which makes Li Wenyuan once again feel the horror of the civilization that made this thing.

He was now a little skeptical that this was really done by the civilization that placed the planetary machinery, after all, the electronic protection capability of the "observation terminal" was really not very good, and it was completely impossible to imagine the existence of such an "extremely biased" civilization.

But what makes him even more puzzled now is the reason for the appearance of this "moat".

What is the purpose of this corridor that divides two galaxies?

He couldn't know what was going on in the star field on the other side, but he had a hunch that it might be a very different world from this one.

At this time, the guidance beam from the "Prophetic Interface" had already crossed the moat and flew towards the deep space on the opposite shore.

Since its launch, the beam has traveled through countless fragments of hyperspace, where it has fortunately accelerated many times, helping it cross the long interstellar space.

“…… Will the mysterious "force of cause and effect" drive the "prophetic interface" to find the right target at the right time? ”

"If you can master this black technology of 'cause and effect', this will be a very strong force......

After confirming that the target of the "Prediction Interface" was the "Upper Three Spiral Arms", Li Wenyuan once again sighed at this magical giant structure from the "Ascendant" civilization.

Unfortunately, this is still a mysterious, inscrutable technology.

Even the "Ascenders" themselves don't understand how they came up with the "Prophetic Interface", which is like writing a working "bug", the principle is unclear and cannot be changed.

Considering the unknown situation on the other side of the "moat", it may not be a good thing to rush forward, so Li Wenyuan decided to search along the edge of the moat first to see if he could find some ruins and understand the cause of this "moat".

And it didn't take long for him to really find a civilization that was born on the edge of this "moat".

To be precise, the ruins of civilization.

This is a civilization born in the "lower three spiral arms", naturally shackled by the speed of light, and it is known from their history that they have never wanted to "exceed the speed of light".

They call themselves "Ute" and appear to be a large, flat arthropod, and the adult Ute can reach a length of 100 meters, which is very different from the usual image of "aliens".

They are born with a long lifespan, and this lifespan also leads to their view of time being different from ordinary people, maybe ten years, a hundred years, in their eyes, it is just a slow turnover.

Since the day they stepped into the starry sky, the Ute people have chosen to accompany the cryopod, they have no faster-than-light technology, and can only rely on physical longevity and hibernation to resist the time and loneliness of the universe.

In their interstellar history, they have spent 450,000 years searching for other alien civilizations, only to find that they appear to be the only surviving civilization in the known area.

There used to be civilizations in this star field, but now only ruins remain.

The loneliness of life has prompted the Utes to continue their journey outward, spending countless hours searching for traces of civilization, even if they have lost touch with their home planet.

Eventually, they reached the "Boundary of the Galaxy", which is now the "Trench".

The unnatural causes of the moat convinced the Utes that there must be a civilization on the other side of the moat, so they established a colony at the edge of the moat until all the people arrived, and then tried to cross it.

- Walk 20,000 light-years at this sub-light speed.

In the history of the Ute people, they did not measure the specific width of the "moat", and no one knew if there was a never-ending void behind the "moat", and if you were lost in it, it would be a more terrible feeling of being killed.

But the Utes went anyway, and with a curiosity about "over there", the entire civilization embarked on this path with an unknown destination.

"Courageous ......"

Li Wenyuan felt sincere admiration for the choice of the Ute people, not all civilizations would dare to take the road of 20,000 light years.

And in the ruins of the Ute people, he also discovered the "secret" that belonged to Ute.

- A "secret" that he did not expect to get from a civilization that could not even do faster than the speed of light.

[——Discover a brand new technology!] 】

[New technologies have been added to the tech tree; According to the current recorded data, set up the "Ute" civilization logo for it]

[Through the study of this technology, our understanding of the technology: "Singular Loop" has been improved]

【Extreme Freeze Core (Ute)】

[Technology Level: 3-9]

[Introduction: The cryogenic cryogency device from the Utes was originally intended to prolong the hibernation of living beings and allow sub-light galaxy navigation to last long enough.] However, we found that the cryogenic field produced by this miraculous device far exceeds our technical level, and may even reach ...... Absolute Zero】

[Possible Technology: None]

This is another technology that has not been left to him by humans, and all the technologies that can be entered by this picky technology tree can basically be called the "essence of the essence", and this seemingly ordinary "refrigeration machine" can actually meet this standard.

Not only that, but even the special science and technology level mark of "3-9" appeared for the first time, and it seemed to be related to the tenth-level technology "Strange Cycle", which made Li Wenyuan pay attention to this technology in an instant.

In addition, the history of the Utes in their search for extraterrestrial civilizations is not for nothing, and although they are the only civilization in this star field, they have found the remains of an ancient civilization in a nearby star field.

It seems that it is the "Galaxy Empire" that Li Wenyuan speculated and once covered this galaxy.

And that civilization, for its part, calls themselves the chroniclers.
