Chapter 2: Ancient Lost Civilizations

Congo, Africa, in front of an inconspicuous bush.

"This is Lebuque Boulevard?"

Standing in front of the bushes that were not half as tall as himself, Dagu glanced at Sha Ji beside him with some surprise.

If it weren't for the other party's sworn assurance, this was the black street established by the Lebi Buster people, and he probably wouldn't have dreamed that there were still cosmic people lurking in this place.

"Could it be that Lebuk Avenue has also mastered subspace technology?"

Don't look at Lu Xuan's rudiments of the Sixth Avenue a long time ago, but this does not mean that subspace technology is a very popular technology.

On the contrary, among the many cosmic people that Dagu has seen, it can be said that there are very few who have mastered similar technology.

And Lu Xuan is the only one who can use subspace technology to build a fixed place that can exist for a long time so far.

"Of course it can't be, do you think the Lebik people are some kind of advanced intelligent civilization?"

Glancing at Da Gu with a little disdain, Sha Ji couldn't believe that the other party hadn't recognized Lu Xuan's level until now.

Lu Xuan was able to rival the terrifying existence of a civilization by himself.

God knows how far that guy's tech tree has climbed, anyway, it is absolutely impossible for an ordinary cosmic civilization to reach his level.

"However, although the Lebi Busters are much inferior to Lu Xuan in terms of civilization level, they still have some merits after all."

"For example, even Lu Xuan admires the 'miniature technology'......"

As if to prove what he said, Shaki took a step directly towards the bushes in front of him.

In the next second, Sha Ji's body actually shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon disappeared in front of Da Gu.

Seeing this scene, Dagu also took a tentative step forward.

Then he found that the bushes in front of him were rapidly growing in size, gradually turning into a towering giant like a forest.

"This?"

Suddenly looking up at the sky, Dagu realized that it was not the bushes that were getting bigger, but his body shrinking.

From the macro to the micro, from the giant to the ant......

When Dagu took another step forward, it was as if he had passed through some unknown dark passage and came to a microcosm of the city.

"Welcome to the real Boulevard de Lebique!"

Standing at the entrance of the microcosmic city, the Lebi Buster who had been waiting for a long time smiled and gestured to Shaji and Dagu.

Behind the Lebiks, all sorts of strangely shaped cosmic people are shuttling between cities, and fierce quarrels break out from time to time.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the middle of the building, in the middle of the Boulevard de l'Ebac.

Shaji, Dagu, and Lebibust sat opposite each other, and on the table in the middle was a tea set full of oriental Zen.

From making tea to making tea, from tools to etiquette......

The Lebi Buster is like an Asian who grew up in the East, and has a surprising familiarity and aesthetic for Eastern culture.

"Sorry to keep you waiting!"

Gently pushing the brewed tea in front of Sha Ji and Da Gu, the Lebi Buster didn't officially speak until this time.

"I really can't see that you are so familiar with the culture of the East?"

It wasn't Dagu who spoke, but Sha Ji, who was the facilitator of this mission.

In fact, this mission originally did not need to be involved in the extraterrestrial alliance, but the Lebi Buster insisted that he only trusted the extraterrestrial alliance.

There must be personnel from the Extraterrestrial Alliance on the scene before he can honestly account for everything he knows.

As a last resort, Sha Ji had to reluctantly follow Dagu to come here to carry out the mission.

To tell the truth, if Da Gu hadn't spoken, Sha Ji wouldn't have bothered to take care of a small character like Lebi Buster!

"Goodness is like water, and water benefits all things without fighting."

"The sea is tolerant of all rivers, and tolerance is great."

"Alone on a strange planet, you have to learn some local culture to be able to integrate into this civilization, don't you?"

Smiling and raising his teacup, he saw that the Lebi Buster did not shy away from raising his eyebrows at Shaji.

"Besides, Lebibuster's planet is different from Earth, and what we advocate most there is 'plunder'."

"No matter what form of 'plunder', turning what doesn't belong to us into our own is an instinct engraved deep in our Lebi-Buster genes."

"Humans, in particular, are already capable of triggering the predatory instincts deep in our genes by their very existence......"

Hearing the sound of the strings and knowing the meaning of elegance, Sha Ji, who has seen many different aliens, reacted instantly.

"You want to plunder humanity?"

Although there are many civilizations that covet the earth, it is still relatively rare for a cosmic person like the Lebiks to come purely to plunder human beings.

To put it mildly, any civilization that can leave the home planet has more or less lit up advanced energy technology, and there is basically no need to worry about food and resources.

In this case, with enough time, the population is not a big problem at all.

Even if it is a partial civilization, even if biotechnology is not lit up, with the most primitive means of reproduction, they can give birth to a large number of people.

"Your civilization...... It can't be the kind of civilization that is more individual, right? ”

Generally speaking, the prosperity of civilization depends on the size of the population, and this is true even in the age of the universe.

But since the universe is so big, there will always be some strange civilizations.

For various reasons, the number of members of these strange civilizations is very small.

For this reason, he even had to spread his own technology and civilization ideas to absorb other races as one of his own.

In a sense, giants are also one of these strange civilizations, and ultra-ancient civilizations can be regarded as derivative civilizations that continue the concept of giants.

"No, we Lebi Busters are not 'individual civilizations.'"

"Compared to those powerful and sound civilizations, we Lebibusters can only be regarded as a lost civilization that accidentally stepped into the universe."

At this point, the Lebibuster's voice paused slightly before continuing.

"I don't know how the types of civilizations are divided within the TPC......"

"But we Lebi-Busters actually divide the civilizations that will eventually be able to set foot in the universe into three categories."

"The first type is a 'sound civilization' that has entered the universe from nothing and completely by its own power."

"The second type is the 'derivative civilization' that has been inspired and guided by some powerful civilization, follows the trajectory of the former, and takes a shortcut into the universe."

"If the first two are winners, then the third type of civilization is the loser."

"Due to its own potential, he was unable to break out of the home planet, but he obtained interstellar navigation technology by chance and entered the universe as a half-......"

"This is our Lebiks, a 'lost civilization' that has inherited the technology of an ancient civilization."
