Chapter 1: Cosmic Invaders: The Natans

Tana is a standard Natan.

As notorious invaders in the universe, the Natans have always been hated by the vast majority of civilizations in the universe.

Even the Rechulans, who also belonged to a bad civilization, expressed undisguised disgust for the existence of the Natans.

After all, the people of Leichulan are taking a militarist line, a highly centralized civilization that claims to be a "hegemonic practitioner".

On the other hand, the Natans are more like thieves and bullies in the cosmic civilization, specifically for the purpose of stealing the advanced technology of other civilizations.

In terms of disgusting, the Natans said second, and absolutely no one dared to say first.

However, Tana never felt like a thief or a bully.

In Tana's view, survival of the fittest has always been the unchanging truth of the universe.

His own race is just following this eternal truth, and there is no reason why he will be called a thief or a bully.

Because when it comes to thieves and bullies, other advanced civilizations in the universe are obviously more suitable for this title than their own race.

Isn't the reason why they were able to advance to higher civilizations among the many cosmic civilizations was based on the sacrifices of more lower civilizations?

Rather than being a thief and a bully, Tana prefers to call himself a thief, a hunter, and a ranger.

There is no fixed planet, no fixed home......

The Natan wander among the stars, lurking among the different individuals of each civilization.

Of course, Tana does not deny the inferiority of his race.

After all, the reason why one's race can perfectly lurk between different civilizations is because of the "embedding system" obtained from a civilization that has been extinct.

It is also ridiculous to say that this race, which created the "embedded system", is obviously a higher civilization that can smoothly ascend to the universe.

As a result, they have gone down the wrong path of completely virtualizing and informatizing themselves.

In the end, even all the members abandoned their bodies and became pure energy individual races.

Therefore, in the face of a rare collective invasion by the Natans, the race was wiped out without any suspense.

The few remaining fugitives also regrouped amid the rumors of a "new homeland" spread by the Natans, and were wiped out again.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Tana would have really found it hard to believe that such a naïve race had almost become a cosmic-level civilization.

However, it is also thanks to the "embedding system" they have created.

The Natans were able to steal the advanced technology of other civilizations so smoothly and strengthen themselves little by little.

The essence of an "embedded system" is actually a system that is specifically attached to other living beings.

By purifying and informatizing itself, organisms loaded with the "embedding system" can possess other beings like ghosts.

This kind of possession has no harm to the host, and can even greatly enhance the host's memory and thinking ability.

The reason why the naïve race created this "embedding system" in the first place was actually to be able to experience a different life, so it did not have the idea of interfering with the host's wishes.

However, when this system came into the hands of the Natans, they used it to possess scientists and researchers from other higher civilizations, and then steal the cutting-edge technology of other advanced civilizations.

Unlike the creators of the "embedding system", the Natans did not completely give up their physical bodies despite obtaining the "embedding system".

On the contrary, with all kinds of advanced technology stolen from other cosmic civilizations, the Natans generally possess combat power beyond ordinary cosmic people.

Tana is one of them, and even the best of them.

However, not long ago, Tana received a secret bounty through the unique communication channel of the Natans.

That is, the creators of the "embedded system" have not been completely eradicated.

During the last encirclement against them, one individual did not make it to their "new home" as scheduled, but instead disappeared into a relatively remote solar system.

So, in order to prevent the "embedded system" from falling into the hands of other civilizations, and then find a way to crack it.

The higher-ups of the Natan people decisively issued a bounty order, asking the Natan people closest to the solar system to go and find out.

This is also the point that distinguishes the Natans from other cosmic civilizations.

Each individual of the Natans is a relatively independent existence, and they do not need to rely on their own race to survive in the universe.

Therefore, the upper echelons of the Natan people do not have any mandatory binding force on the Natan people.

Rather, the Natans were a loose conglomerate.

Only when the vital interests of the survival of the entire race are at stake, will the higher-ups issue tasks to other individuals in the form of bounties.

Unfortunately, Tana is the closest Natan to the solar system.

Under normal circumstances, Tana would never mind taking a walk around the solar system that might have life, and dealing with the fugitive individual by the way.

But the crux of the matter now is that Tana knows very well that the solar system not only has life, but also has given birth to a powerful cosmic civilization.

The most powerful fleet of the Raculan people, known as the "Evil Cosmic People", was destroyed in the outermost part of the solar system.

Not only that, but the nascent civilization is also warning the other civilizations of the universe.

All spacemen who enter their galaxy must register with an organization called the "Extraterrestrial Alliance" as soon as possible.

If they don't register, they will not hesitate to initiate a counterattack procedure once they find out.

Powerful, xenophobic, yet seemingly extremely order-worshipping......

In particular, Tana's full knowledge of human civilization is the reason why he has been hesitant to carry out this bounty mission.

Especially when he learned that some malicious cosmic civilization wanted to invade its home planet, but the atmosphere was destroyed by some invisible terrorist force, Tana rarely hesitated.

Although the Natans call themselves hunters and rangers, they never take the initiative to provoke the true advanced cosmic civilization.

It wasn't until another Natanan went on this bounty and invited Tana to work with him that he couldn't hold back his greed.

In the final analysis, no matter how terrible this civilization is, it is just a nascent cosmic civilization that has just left its home planet.

For the Natans, this stage of civilization is often the most vulnerable, and it is also the best time to steal their core technology.

Civilizations that are a little weaker than it are still in the surface stage, and their technology has no value.

Civilizations in the universe that are a little stronger than it have developed powerful technologies that can truly track across the stars.

The nascent cosmic civilization in between the two happens to belong to the hunting range of the Natans.

At the very least, Natan had the confidence to run away after being exposed.
