Chapter 13: Cleanup

In the past two days, Papaya was a little nervous, but also a little relieved and happy, this complex emotion made people who were familiar with him very puzzled, and did not understand why he had always been calm and showed such a mental state.

Of the eleven Silver Rank Executives, only Glo and a few others understood why.

Compared with most of the high-level leaders who have resigned themselves to the sterilization curse and the degeneration of the silver species, like a few high-level leaders such as Papaya Trembling and Glo, they actually still have some hope in their hearts, and this hope is to lead the race to achieve the level of science and technology, from the current third-level cosmic civilization to the fourth-level, which is what they originally called the overlord-level civilization.

Although they are all plagued by the sterilization curse, this is a very obvious truth, the higher the level of science and technology, the smaller the internal friction under the sterilization curse, after all, even if it is just a simple life extension technology, the fourth-level cosmic civilization is also an absolute qualitative change, and it can be easily done by retaining the original physical body for one or two thousand years, if there is a spiritual supplement, and then assisted by a semi-mechanical body and mechanical ascension, it is not uncommon to live for one or two thousand years.

Don't look at Papaya's trembling habits, he has some vices and luxurious habits, but he is indeed a rare talent and hero of the Cold Lizard Clan, so he is the Great Elder.

And a very small number of silver talents and heroes like Papaya and Glo, they are familiar with the various structures, societies, and civilizations of the Wulong race, as well as the situation of the entire river system, as well as the war situation against the Wulong race, the other five fourth-level cosmic civilizations, and the past history, etc.

I don't dare to say that the melon is ripe, but at least I can know it.

So they all know that there have been several documented instances of material nightmares in the past.

These material nightmares have caused a large number of silver civilizations in the outer and middle layers of the river system to be wiped out, but this is not one or two, or even one or two hundred silver civilizations extinct, but tens of thousands of hundreds of third-level cosmic civilizations are extinct, which is too terrifying.

This is absolutely impossible for the Material Nightmare to do, because once the Material Nightmare appears, and hundreds of third-level cosmic civilizations are wiped out, then the rest of the third-level cosmic civilizations will inevitably move closer to the six fourth-level cosmic civilizations as the overlords, and in this case, how can such a terrifying extinction event occur.

To put it mildly, unless it is the six fourth-level cosmic civilizations that reveal their butcher knives, the material nightmare can really cause the mass extinction of civilizations of this level, and the fourth-level cosmic civilization has already been extinct...... So it's this "unless" that's scary.

Whether it was Papaya Shivering or Glo, they all had a judgment in their hearts, that is, when the material nightmare appeared, for some reason, the six fourth-level cosmic civilizations would launch a massacre against the subsidiary civilizations that were not their core.

The cause is unknown, the scope is unknown, but it is always related to material nightmares.

And just after the human civilization carried out a large-scale search of the star system, the human civilization decided to move towards the location of another nearby alliance civilization, and the faster-than-light curvature detector that had been turned on sent back information.

In a void region about twenty light-years away, there is a feedback from what appears to be a cosmic war.

Because this faster-than-light detection technology can only carry out diffuse exploration in the way of space-time curvature folding, that is, similar to water ripples, producing space-time curvature dents similar to gravity waves, and then diffusing to the periphery at superluminal speed, and then emitting waves to feedback when discovering massive objects, high-energy structures, or similar situations, so naturally there can be no image information and the like, and it can only be confirmed that there are a large number of material debris in that void area.

However, there are no stars and planets in that area, and there are massive object debris and high-energy reactions, so it is very likely that the space war will be an after-the-fact battlefield, but the specific scale of the war and how long ago the war was, this information is unknown.

But even so, this is also extremely important information, Lu Yuanming immediately consulted all parties on the results of the investigation, and everyone felt that they should go to the scene to investigate, although this is dangerous, for example, if this is caused by a material nightmare, then this trip may have hit a material nightmare, and at the same time, if this is some kind of trap, then the human race may be besieged.

But after comprehensive consideration, Lu Yuanming still decided to sail the fleet group to the battlefield.

The most important thing now is intelligence, whether it is the material nightmare, or Papaya Trembling and Glo telling Lu Yuanming that the Wurm and other five fourth-level cosmic civilizations are likely to have launched a purge of the low-level civilizations of the river system, no matter what the situation is, obtaining its information is extremely important for the current human race.

Twenty light years is not far away, and according to the curvature speed that humans have mastered now, it is only more than three months, not even four months, which is still enough time.

At the moment, the human mothership Blue Star, the seven motherships of the eleven silver civilizations, plus the fleet group, started together, entered the curvature bubble, and began to head towards the battlefield area.

And in the curvature of more than three months, nothing else happened, whether it was the dark matter world or Lu Yuanming's "Demon Realm", all of them were in an ordinary development time.

And the human high-level and the eleven silver high-level frequently meet and talk, and are finalizing the next alliance cooperation, at the same time, the various warships and gunboats are still carrying out the implementation of the chain plan, and there are constantly these silver high-level middle and lower levels to achieve the reward conditions, and then make a wish, such as eating, shopping, reading, and playing games, they are sent into the dark matter world by Lu Yuanming.

Everything was so orderly that more than three months passed in a flash, and then when the fleet burst out of the curvature bubble, the scene presented in the scanning device confirmed that this area was indeed the battlefield of space warfare.

However, after careful screening, everyone found that this battlefield was not the battlefield after the material nightmare raged, because some space warships were broken and shattered, and three motherships were also in a broken and abandoned state.

In addition, there are still a lot of lives on these battleship motherships, and they are not all killed because of this space war, or they are taken away by the enemy!?

This situation is so weird that Lu Yuanming ignored the opposition, pulled Tang Zhe'an and the qualified ones, drove the decisive mecha, and took seven super battle armors and the special mecha of the qualified ones to investigate.

Obviously, the energy core and energy center of these battleship motherships have been completely destroyed, and the lives that are now living on them rely on backup energy, and in the process of investigation, all the information shows that the other side of this space war is very restrained, and does not fight with the idea of destruction, they just chose to destroy these ships, and then destroy the paint energy center and various long-range communications, long-range navigation crews, it is just like letting this ruined fleet and life be trapped in this area.

Lu Yuanming led the team straight into the central area of this ruined fleet, and its target was the three large motherships.

When he came to its vicinity, Papaya, who was accompanying him, immediately said: "That's right, this is our target alliance, the civilization of the alliance of commerce and industry to which the Argonian clan belongs, and these three are their motherships. ”

Glo nodded in the affirmative.

They've all dealt with this alliance before, so naturally they still have some impressions.

As Lu Yuanming's reconnaissance fleet approached, there was a mess of information coming from the mothership, and the closer it was, the clearer the information became, and finally when the fleet approached a certain position, the other party's information could be transmitted completely.

“…… Please rescue us, honorable cold lizard civilization, honorable Canfeather civilization, please save us......" said the message of the Industrial Alliance.

Lu Yuanming's decisive battle mecha was hidden on a main battleship, and this main battleship was the main battleship of the Cold Lizard Clan, and at the same time, there was also the main battleship of the Canyu Clan, so the other party could recognize the logos of the two clans.

Lu Yuanming immediately said: "Send a message and ask what happened, what did they attack by something?" ”

The information control personnel on the bridge immediately sent the inquiry, and the signal and content were all in accordance with the Wurm code, which is also the uniform standard within the radius of the Wurm influence.

Soon, the other party sent a message back and said, "...... I'm very sorry, the honorable cold lizard civilization, the honorable Canyu civilization, please believe us, we are loyal, hardworking, and will never dare to rebel, but ...... We were attacked by the ancient mechs of the Wurm Clan, and they destroyed all of our power sources, and although they did not slaughter or loot us, it was not out of good intentions......"

Lu Yuanming looked at Papaya and Glo, who had previously told him that the Argonian might start purging low-level civilizations, and the words in front of them obviously proved their claims.

Lu Yuanming continued: "Continue to ask, why did the Wulong Clan attack them. ”

As he was questioned, the other side was silent for at least dozens of seconds before he said, "...... Maybe it has something to do with material nightmares. ”

"Our industrial star system was attacked by the Material Nightmare, and after discovering this, we immediately told the Wurm about the bad news of the appearance of the Material Nightmare, through their dragon communication interface, but who knows, not long after passing the message, they asked us to come to this area they designated, and we didn't resist or disobey the order, we came here, and then ...... We were attacked by the Wurm, and we thought after the war...... The Argonian may have used us as bait or sacrifice to feed us with material nightmares. ”

Papaya shuddered and immediately said, "Maybe the rumors are credible, once your people have been attacked by the material nightmare, then your entire race will be branded by the material nightmare, no matter where you go, your location will be known by the material nightmare, and this race has been attacked by the material nightmare, if you go to the core of the Wurm, then it may bring the material nightmare, which is absolutely unbearable for the Wurm, so it will be broken." ”

Tang Zhe'an immediately denied beside him: "No, if it's just like that, wouldn't it be better to destroy it all?" Why wreck the ship and save your life? ”

Papaya shuddered and said eagerly, "No matter what, we can't save them, they are likely to cause material nightmares!" This will make us attack by the material nightmare as well!! Your Excellency, Lord Decider, let's get out of here, at least we already know it's the Argonians' doing! You can hype it up to other cosmic civilizations, and no one will trust the wurms anymore! ”

At this time, because there was no sound for a long time, the cries for help from the industrial alliance kept coming, and its language became more and more humble.

Lu Yuanming was silent for a long time, and he suddenly laughed and said, "Okay, you go back...... I'm staying. ”

"I'm going to have a material nightmare for a while!"
