The collapse of the corporate empire came so suddenly, and the "alien enclosure" and "colonial discovery" they had hoped for were completely delusional.

The social structure of the company itself has long been shaped by high technology and long-standing culture, and it is so stable that it is normal enough for the company itself not to collapse.

It is better to say that after entering the interstellar age, the political system is no longer so important, and even the imperial system has its own unique characteristics that belong to the interstellar era.

The root of all this is that the rapid progress of science and technology directly covers up the drawbacks brought about by the system, and normally speaking, the interstellar civilization formed by this way of "promoting the seedlings" will gradually decay and collapse over a long enough period of time, even with the help of science.

But the fact that this global enterprise here can maintain such a long national glory is inseparable from external factors - the advanced help given by the "hunter" civilization.

They directly helped the Cosmos unify the entire galaxy and gave them the technology to maintain a stable rule.

And the return once every hundred years invisibly deters those who want to resist, and over time, the spark of resistance here becomes weaker and weaker, and even no longer has waves.

However, since it is external assistance that has stabilized the world, external interference can also cause it to fall into chaos.

Enough stability has smoothed the minds of the Cosmopolitan Corporation, which is more focused on how to continue to prevent internal rebellions, and has never considered the "enemy from the outside".

In addition, the technological level of the "assimilation fighters" themselves is not low, and the ability to penetrate is their forte, so this huge corporate empire has entered the collapse without realizing it.

"You've basically controlled the entire corporate system?"

Li Wenyuan, who was two million light-years away, received the news of the "Assimilation Fighters", and although he was a little surprised by their speed, he did not react too much.

The Assimilation Fighters had previously learned through the infiltrators on the board that the Hunter civilization had not been back there for a long time, and brought the news to Li Wenyuan, and it was speculated that they seemed to be trapped somewhere.

This made Li Wenyuan more and more reassured about the galaxy under the control of the Universal Enterprise, and after the complete collapse of the "servant" Universal Enterprise, the methods they might have to communicate with the "Hunter" civilization were no longer effective.

All that's left over there now are human remnants and the "Void Eggs" that have not yet hatched.

Since the original Cosmos did not have the means to control the Void Breed, they always began the final step of the incubation process after the Hunter returned.

Before that, no matter how fully developed the "Void Egg" was, it would not hatch, which gave the "Assimilation Fighter" enough time to study.

The current "Assimilation Fighters" are mainly focused on dealing with the "Void Eggs" scattered throughout the galaxy.

[According to the information we extracted from within the enterprise, there are currently 2,500 "Void Eggs" in the "incubation borderline" state; There are more than 10,000 "Void Eggs" in the rest of the growth stages, and it is not excluded that there are some that have not yet been recorded.

[At present, the "Void Egg" in the "Critical Incubation" state has stopped growing under the effect of the inhibitor injected by the Universal Enterprise, but if necessary, we can also stop the injection to let the "Void Seed" hatch out]

[In addition, we have also learned about the control methods of the "Void Breeding" of the Universal Enterprise, and theoretically it can indeed achieve some control effect, but it cannot be compared with the price paid]

Li Wenyuan also saw the method of controlling the "Void Breeding" of the Universal Enterprise, but he soon skipped this method directly.

This biological weapon from the "Hunter" civilization was originally impossible to control with the means of the Universal Enterprise, but for a long time, the corporate empire still discovered that "psionic energy" could exert a slight influence on this biological weapon.

As a result, the already scarce psionics here suffered, and almost all people who behaved exceptionally were arrested for experiments, but psionic energy is basically impossible to replicate, and it is related to the spiritual world of life.

After researching for so long, the global enterprise can only come up with a low-level "psionic amplifier", which still needs to consume the "disposables" of the psykers that have been accumulated for a long time.

This is their winning item, but they don't have a chance to use it now, and they won't have a chance to use it in the future.

And for this kind of inefficient psionic product, Li Wenyuan naturally doesn't need it.

"While psionic energy seems to have some influence on the 'Void Breeds', can they really be controlled so easily?"

Li Wenyuan is deeply skeptical of the so-called "control" of Huanyu Enterprises.

It cannot be said that there are no relevant control experiments in the corporate records, but they are also very rare, and none of them control the real "void breeding".

The vast majority of the subjects of the experiment were "Void Eggs", and they judged that psionic energy could affect "Void Breeding" only by the "Void Eggs" reacted to psionic energy.

In fact, in the universe, it is very difficult for psionic energy to achieve such a level of "mind control", and the more complex the creatures, the more difficult it is to control.

In the case of the "Presolin", they are not affected by psionic energy at all, and they are even able to communicate with their own weak psionic energy.

In this way, not to mention the "Void Breed", Li Wenyuan felt that perhaps only the "hunter" knew how to control this terrifying life.

[Unfortunately, we haven't been able to find any more information about humans and Hunters from within the Enterprise, and we are currently trying to find results from the Enterprise's contact with the Sentinel Organization, but this may not be useful]

[The corporate empire has controlled this place for so long, and even infiltrated the "Sentinel" full of loopholes, if the "Sentinel" organization really had any secrets, it should have been discovered a long time ago]

This is also an expected result, Li Wenyuan did not expect to find the information he wanted through these civilizations, and the most intuitive source of information was the "purification terminal".

But......

"Isn't there any news about the AI planet?"

[Yes, the company has not considered that there may be "alien planets" such as "observation terminals" and "purification terminals" in the galaxy at all]

[The "Hunter" didn't tell them much about "beyond the galaxy", and they didn't know where the "Hunter" went before he disappeared.]

[Maybe you can only hope for luck]

A huge global enterprise actually didn't know anything about the news of the artificial intelligence planet, which made Li Wenyuan feel a little troublesome.

I thought I could get enough useful information from the company, but now I can only rely on the only means to find it.

However, just as he was about to build a new "Prophetic Interface" in that galaxy, the "Far Traveler" suddenly sent a special message to Li Wenyuan with an extremely high delay.

[The real "Sentinel" organization was discovered]

"The real 'Sentinel' organization?" Li Wenyuan was a little stunned, the "Far Traveler" said that the real "Sentinel" organization had been discovered, so what was the sieve that was infiltrated into a sieve by the Universal Enterprise?

He wanted to ask, but due to the delay, he could only continue to wait for news from the "Far Traveler".

At this time, in that distant galaxy, a huge ruined "lighthouse" type giant structure was floating in the cosmic space of a corner galaxy.

The lights that should have been bright have long been extinguished by this time, but the scars engraved on it by the years are still quite clear.

Far Traveler's drones scanned around the lighthouse, some of which had already penetrated deep into the building, sending wave after wave of footage back to the scientific spacecraft working there.

And the synthetic individual of the "Far Traveler" on the spaceship is looking at the picture intently, not letting go of all the details.

"This seems like a refuge? Border outposts? Guide the lighthouse? ”

A "Far Traveler" analyzes the purpose of the dusty equipment it sees, and compares the ornamentation on the lighthouse structure to suggest that the structure belongs to the destroyed Sentinel organization.

"The civilization behind this giant structure is the real 'sentinel', the one in this galaxy now? No kidding, at best, they have only inherited a name, and the history of their organization can only be traced back to 7,000 years ago, and there are still many doubts. ”

Another "Far Traveler" scientist who traveled with the research ship was very cold about the current "Sentinel" organization, but he never took his eyes off the lighthouse giant.

This was the first time they had discovered a relic directly linked to the ancient Sentinel Order, and he felt that the "Fish That Slipped Through the Net" structure could provide them with quite a bit of information.

And it was at this time that the drone scanning inside the giant structure made a special discovery.

"Hey, this thing ......"

It was an object hidden in a corner, obscured by a large pile of garbage, and it would have been difficult to detect something special in it had it not been for the drone detecting the faint fluctuations in subspace.

And when the drone picked up the pile of garbage and exposed the hidden thing to everyone's eyes, all the "far-travelers" present showed incredible expressions.

It was an encapsulated, cylindrical cabinet that looked as tall as a normal human, but the starlight inside could be seen through the encapsulation layer of the cabinet.

- True starlight, the light emitted by the fusion reaction of stars.

Direct observation was quickly cut off by the distortion of the subspace field, and the starlight emitted from the inside of the box vanished, leaving only a normal box that looked like nothing.

However, this is just a way to protect themselves, and the "far-travelers" who have used similar products know that this is a "miniature galaxy".

Li Wenyuan used it to pack the galaxy and take it away, but the one left here seemed to be done to "protect".
