Li Wenyuan was still a little surprised when he found the "Silent One" in the "cage" galaxy, he really didn't expect to meet this civilization here that had long since left the galaxy.

Although initially he only detected fluctuations in the use of the "matter disintegrator" characteristic of the "Silencer", after a period of listening, he finally determined that it was indeed the "Silencer" in this closed galaxy, and not the other "Boundary Breaker".

And in addition to the "Silencer", he also detected the presence of two other civilizations in this massive barred spiral galaxy.

One of them, judging from the situation in the listening, occupies a small area, and is even ridiculously small compared to some interstellar empires, and is located on one of the only two spiral arms of this barred spiral galaxy.

But this civilization has a very good encryption method, and even he is difficult to get benefits from it, thinking that it is probably a "hunter" civilization trapped here.

The rest of the civilizations other than the "Silent One" and the "Hunter" occupy an astral area that is so large that it seems that their chaotic and massive signal sources can be heard from any direction.

Roughly calculated, the size of this civilization may be tens of thousands of times that of an ordinary civilization in the galaxy, and the star field it controls may have reached half of the entire "cage" galaxy, and the general orientation of this civilization lies on the other spiral arm opposite the "hunter".

Li Wenyuan guessed that this civilization might be the original civilization in this galaxy, or a collection of original civilizations, and had to retreat to the other side of the galaxy because of the threat of the "hunter".

This phenomenon is very similar to the spiral galaxy where he is now located, separated by two very different civilizations, which can basically be said to be incompatible.

However, what made him curious was that the "Hunter" did not destroy everything in this galaxy, and even the natives in this galaxy did not seem to clean up much.

Judging from the signal source of that magnitude, the original civilization has not suffered any annihilating heavy losses, and is still developing very prosperously, which does not seem to be consistent with the situation of "Hunter" who "destroys everywhere he goes".

He didn't think that this apparent difference in astronomical positions was due to the fact that the original civilization had become a servant of the "hunter", and there must have been something else in it that he didn't know.

So after roughly finding out the situation in the galaxy, Li Wenyuan did not rashly contact any of the civilizations, but still silently listened to everything in the galaxy, and at the same time deciphered the encrypted signals of the "hunter" as much as possible, and secretly obtained information.

He needed to confirm the strength of the Hunters and their purpose, as the galaxy he was in was only eight million light-years away.

After the hunters attacked the Cosmos Enterprise galaxy two million light-years away, the next target chose not the closer spiral galaxy in favor of the now "cage" barred spiral galaxy, and for most reason.

This may have something to do with the fact that they have been collecting huge amounts of energy in an attempt to "ascend" out of this universe.

If he is not curious about what the "hunter" has discovered, it must be fake, and even if he has to face it head-on in the end, he feels that his situation "in the shadows" has an advantage.

And the reason why he did not choose to contact the "Silent One" is also very simple, this is a group of invaders from the "high dimension", a group that has to be "obeyed" after being defeated by humans.

Although it seems very similar to the situation of "Presorin", Li Wenyuan's communication with this group of "silent people" is too little, and he even feels that this civilization did not know that there was such a "human orphan" in the galaxy when it left the galaxy.

In the past, their performance in the galaxy may have been only because the human deterrence against them was still there, and life would change, but now the "Silent One" is beyond the wider galaxy, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not become enemies.

He still remembers the behavior of those who are truly "boundary-breakers", and it is also an "extinct civilization" that does everything and regards the "low dimension" as a hunting ground.

And now that the "cage" is still very strong, he still has plenty of time to get information, at least it will not be too late for him to communicate until he has determined the general state of the current "Silent One".

So Li Wenyuan used the "Pillar of Creation" to continuously open tiny "listening holes" in the space-time distortion that enveloped this galaxy, silently collecting information in it.

And the tripartite civilizations that are in this "cage" galaxy do not know that there is already an external "listener" who is always watching their movements, and is still doing their own thing.

In the "Home II" system, the high-level members of the "Exile" civilization have once again gathered to discuss another recent "three-way firefight".

This is the current "home galaxy" of their civilization, and the "Home One" has become a victim of the "Hell Defense Line" because it is on the other side of the galaxy, and it is a "forgotten history".

It is not that the "three-way firefight" event in history has not happened, but it is better to say that since the "Silent Empire" somehow came to this galaxy, there has been such a "three-way firefight".

These high-level officials are already surprised by this, but this time it is a little special, because it is the largest and most fierce "three-way firefight" they have ever experienced.

For this reason, they had to discuss the reasons for the occurrence of this "firefight".

“…… The battle took place in the Grand Cross Field, 32 light-years away from the H725 to H789 sections of the Hell Line, and the number of warships involved in the battle was conservatively estimated to be more than 20,000, and the number is growing. ”

"And the number of warships in which our side participated...... Well...... At present, there are more than 18,000 ships, all of which are the elite of the 'Hell Defense Line', and they have also achieved considerable results......"

In the "three-way firefight", they dispatched an astonishing number of warships, and it seemed that they participated in the battlefield in a crushing state.

However, the reporter deliberately did not report their casualties, because of the eighteen thousand warships, the number of completely destroyed or missing was as high as 17,000, almost like a group of ants that were constantly moving towards the source of the fire, and the casualties were heavy.

The "exiles" who were present actually knew the news, because this "three-way firefight" was essentially a tactical operation planned by them.

They have been teased by the "hunters" for a long time, and the entire Space Force has experienced a period of low morale, and the anger has become more and more suppressed.

Before the actual start of this tactical operation, a considerable number of elite fighters had already requested to fight, and submitted various tactical plans, many of which were suicidal actions, just to combat the arrogance of the "hunters".

After a long period of secret planning, they finally decided to carry out a massive "annihilation operation", targeting the "stalkers" who often roamed the "Hell Defenses".
