Chapter 961: Expansion Bottleneck

The soul body monitoring network specially arranged in various parts of the territory of this civilization is to monitor the range of activities of the soul body of the ancient civilization as much as possible, and to locate its location when the three cosmic-level civilizations are preparing to clean up the soul body of the ancient civilization.

For this reason, the three cosmic-level civilizations even wondered if their soul body detection equipment was no longer effective against the soul bodies of the ancient civilizations? Or was it that the ancient civilizations had played some new tricks and engaged in some new conspiracy behind their backs?

Out of concern about these possibilities, the three cosmic-level civilizations have launched a series of targeted actions specifically for this purpose, and in the areas where the soul body of the ancient civilization was more frequent before, the three cosmic-level civilizations sent a large number of main combat ships equipped with new soul body detection equipment to carry out many large-scale inventory activities in those suspicious areas.

Those main combat ships of the universe-level civilization whose maneuverability and sailing speed are many times faster than ordinary civilian faster-than-light spaceships have conducted several carpet searches back and forth in a large area, and even sent special personnel with special soul body detection equipment to some planets to conduct detailed inventory and detection, originally thinking that they would definitely be able to find some clues of ancient civilizations, catch some signs of soul body activities, and then spy on some of the actions of ancient civilizations.

Unexpectedly, the three cosmic-level civilizations were busy in vain, making a lot of noise, but in the end, they got nothing.

After the ancient civilization completed the internal reform, the behavior pattern of the soul body of the ancient civilization has undergone a huge change, and it is no longer the same as the soul body that once ran around, hitting the wall everywhere like a headless fly.

Previously, when the soul bodies of ancient civilizations had to work alone, they naturally felt that it was extremely difficult, and if they wanted to complete a systematic project alone, the requirements for the comprehensive quality of the individual were too high.

An ancient civilization soul body wants to open up the situation alone, and has to find, consult information, and be able to analyze the situation and psychology of the target person, the soul body of the ancient civilization that can finally gain something can be said to be very few, most of the soul body will cause some abnormal events intentionally or unintentionally, and even be found by the ancient civilization Some clues.

However, with the completion of the internal reform of the ancient civilization, the souls of the entire ancient civilization have gradually had a clear division of labor and cooperation, and a large number of the network resources of the forces that the souls of the ancient civilization had previously infiltrated and controlled have been integrated.

With these peripheral forces as cover, the soul bodies of the ancient civilizations have a safe place to hide, and they don't usually need to bump around like headless flies, so naturally even if the three cosmic-level civilizations have the intention to search, it is easy to find their whereabouts.

Moreover, with the coordination and cooperation of the entire civilization, coupled with the contribution of a large number of cosmic-level civilization internal forces controlled by the soul bodies of the ancient civilizations, many of the extremely cumbersome and troublesome affairs that the soul bodies of the ancient civilizations did before can now be easily solved.

For example, in the past, it was difficult for the souls of ancient civilizations to find suitable infiltration and control targets, and it often took a lot of effort to develop new force network members, but now with the help of various forces within the cosmic-level civilization, it is immediately much easier to find new suitable control targets.

No matter what kind of control object the ancient civilization needs, what system and what position people are needed within the cosmic civilization to solve the troubles of the ancient civilization, with the help of the growing control network members, the ancient civilization can quickly find the right person.

Even if it is a relatively high-ranking figure who is easily and difficult to reach when protected by strict security forces, although the forces controlled by the souls of the ancient civilizations may not be able to provide convenient access channels, they can also help screen out some suitable and roundabout solutions, so that the souls of the ancient civilizations can solve the original problems in an indirect way and expand the overall power of the entire control network.

It is precisely because of the integration of the overall civilization of the ancient civilization and the reasonable borrowing of the power of many internal forces of the cosmic-level civilization that the penetration speed of the ancient civilization within the three cosmic-level civilizations once reached an unprecedented high speed, not only the area that has successfully infiltrated the cosmic-level civilization is increasing day by day, a large number of wormhole passages have been successfully invaded by the ancient civilization, and even the power network under the control of the ancient civilization has also grown rapidly together and become more and more powerful.

It's just that as the power network under the control of the soul body of the ancient civilization becomes larger and larger, and the number of people involved in it increases, it is inevitable that more and more people will come into contact with the power network under the control of the soul body of the ancient civilization.

This power group, which was secretly controlled by the ancient civilization, provided a lot of convenience for the development of the ancient civilization, and even formed a community of interests with the ancient civilization to a certain extent.

The souls of ancient civilizations also very simple means of cultivating these networks of forces under their control, which is to help these forces solve some of their competitors when they need them, or to promote cooperation and merger between some forces, etc.

Helping the forces under them deal with their competitors is a very simple matter for the souls of the ancient civilizations, sometimes they don't even need to kill people, they only need to influence and interfere with those specific important people at the right time, and they can create some seemingly normal accidents, or make those important people seriously ill and unable to handle normal business.

When the competition is fierce, the opponent suddenly has a problem, and there is no need for more such things, and after a few times, a force will grow rapidly, and it will have several times or even dozens of times the comprehensive strength.

And to promote the alliance and merger between the forces under his control, it can produce scale effects and improve competitive advantages, and the development speed of many forces under the command of ancient civilizations under various means is far faster than the growth rate of ordinary forces, and it is easy to leave their original competitors behind.

It is impossible for those other forces within the three cosmic-level civilizations not to pay attention to these rapidly rising forces, in fact, the closer the forces are to these forces, the more surprised and suspicious they are by the rapid rise of these forces, and countless people from all walks of life with various thoughts have joined the various forces under the control of the ancient civilizations.

And after these characters with different ghosts climbed to a certain height and came into contact with the core secrets of some forces under the control of ancient civilizations, some chose not to wade into this troubled water, but there are also some people for various reasons, such as for the safety of their own civilization, and for example, in order to obtain fame and fortune that were difficult to obtain before, in short, some people directly exposed some confidential information they obtained, pierced through the ancient civilizations to secretly control some forces, and secretly infiltrated within the three cosmic-level civilizations. Control a large number of information about the life and death of citizens.

With the spread and diffusion of this information, especially after it reached the ears of some high-level government officials of the three cosmic-level civilizations, a storm against the control network of the ancient civilizations suddenly came!

Not only were some forces that were secretly controlled by the souls of ancient civilizations uprooted and completely destroyed, but the three cosmic-level civilizations also followed the vine Muggles, quickly expanding the area of attack along the existing clues, and incidentally striking at a series of large and small forces, the scope of the attack not only included the areas that the ancient civilizations had penetrated, but even included the areas that the ancient civilizations had not set foot in at all.

It can be seen from this drastically expanded scope of attack that the three cosmic-level civilizations are extremely defensive against the infiltration and control methods of the soul bodies of ancient civilizations, and would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of a suspicious target.

Although this way of extreme amplification of the scope of the attack is more, damaging the strength of the three cosmic-level civilizations themselves, it cannot but be said that the control force network of the ancient civilization has indeed been greatly damaged in this blow, and has lost a lot of chess pieces that have been deeply controlled and even used very easily, which is also a big blow to the expansion momentum of the ancient civilization, and even some unlucky ancient civilization soul bodies have died under the thunderous blow of the three cosmic-level civilizations.

What's even more serious is that the three cosmic-level civilizations have collected a lot of useful information in this crackdown, and they have also gained a deeper understanding of many internal situations of the ancient civilizations.

Although the chess pieces under the control of the ancient civilization that really held the confidential information were exposed, they had all been directly disposed of by the soul body of the ancient civilization, and no direct witnesses were left, but this did not prevent the three cosmic-level civilizations from obtaining a large amount of useful information through some indirect means.

By collecting a large amount of remaining information, especially some first-hand recorded information left by those chess pieces, intentionally or unintentionally, the ancient civilization figured out some confidential information that they had long wanted to know, and even found out the reason why some ancient civilization souls were able to freely travel between some wormhole passages without being discovered.

This led to the fact that many of the relevant personnel of the wormhole monitoring system that had been firmly controlled by the ancient civilization were all found out, which caused the ancient civilization to suffer heavy losses and lost some very important navigation channels.

Even the three cosmic-level civilizations have further sealed these loopholes, and carried out stricter and more perfect institutionalized management of the management personnel of those wormhole passages, directly abolishing the practice of the ancient civilizations that infiltrated and controlled some wormhole passages during the period when they were able to pass freely.

Fortunately, although the three cosmic-level civilizations have gained a lot, and they have also learned a lot about the methods and infiltration methods of the ancient civilizations, they do not have a comprehensive understanding of them, and the ancient civilizations have long been prepared in advance for the loss of control of these control forces, and have already taken precautions in advance, so they did not lose all at once.

Even if the three cosmic-level civilizations cracked the infiltration and control of the ancient civilizations into the official management of the wormhole channel, the ancient civilizations still had the ability to infiltrate the soul bodies that the ancient civilizations wanted to infiltrate with the help of those controlled faster-than-light spaceships.

Moreover, although the three cosmic-level civilizations have defeated some of the forces under the control of the ancient civilization, the ancient civilization itself has not integrated all the forces under its control, and in every region that the ancient civilization has infiltrated, the ancient civilization has at least three or more independent power networks, which in itself is to prevent problems within some forces.

Now this method of prevention in advance has shown its effect, although the ancient civilization has lost some of its forces, but the basic territory that has been successfully infiltrated has not been greatly damaged, and a considerable part of the forces under its control have survived.

So this time, although the control network of the ancient civilization suffered a serious loss under the blow of the three cosmic-level civilizations, and some of the plans that were originally being promoted had to be terminated, the control network of the ancient civilization did not suffer any fundamental blow, and it was not difficult to restore the old view after a period of recovery, it was nothing more than a waste of time, and even the key penetration of the ancient civilization into some new areas would not be delayed.

However, although the targeted attacks of the three universes could not fundamentally affect the plans of the ancient civilizations, it has to be said that after the reform of the internal system of the ancient civilizations was completed, the rapid expansion momentum of the ancient civilizations had indeed begun to come to an end.

After a period of rapid development, the expansion momentum of the ancient civilization encountered a large bottleneck for the first time, so that the ancient civilization felt more and more pressure to infiltrate the cosmic civilization, and the momentum of the expansion of the ancient civilization has been curbed by various obstructive factors formed intentionally or unintentionally.

The ever-expanding network of control forces, which can now provide convenience and help to the infiltration of ancient civilizations, is also becoming less and less obvious, and has even gradually become the source of trouble and the hidden danger of accidents, in fact, the exposure of internal secrets this time, and the suppression of the three cosmic-level civilizations are nothing more than a specific manifestation of this infiltration bottleneck.

If this big bottleneck cannot be solved, it will undoubtedly be a utopian dream for the ancient civilization to infiltrate and expand within the cosmic-level civilization as smoothly as before.
