Five Frozen Centuries-Chapter 352 - Visiting Other Civilizations
Chapter 352: Visiting Other Civilizations
The Multi-Eyed Race was a race that did not conform to human aesthetics. Their skin was black and abnormally dry. They had five arms, seven eyes, and three legs, and all eight of their limbs were very thin and weak. They were almost skin and bones, but their stomachs were bulging. Their torsos were also very bloated, and their heads were huge. They looked like an abomination in Dota.
The group of multi-eyed creatures in the command room had been brought into the body of the Leviathan’s biological battleship. Chen Xuanyue was the one interrogating them. Without any weapons or equipment, they had no way of resisting a Legendary creature, so they only revealed what they knew.
During the interrogation, the Leviathan returned and continued devouring the ruins of the battleship. After obtaining enough materials and energy, the robot factory in the Leviathan’s body started producing robots continuously.
Many human corpses dug out of the ruins were placed in coffins and buried in a hole in the Leviathan’s body.
This was a terrifying calamity. Countless people had died there. As for what had happened back then, it was all up to Chen Xuanyue’s interrogation to discover it.
A few hours later, Chen Xuanyue arrived at the command room and reported her interrogation results to Wei Huo and the snake egg.
More than 13,000 years ago, the human race had migrated. They had found the only stargate in the Solar System and entered the Star Path through it. Three months later, a large number of human fleets had descended on this quiet star system.
The human fleet had discovered a large number of hydrogen clouds in the star system. In order to replenish their energy, they had planned to stay in this star system for a short time.
However, it was precisely because of this decision that the human fleet had suffered huge losses. Two months after the human fleet had arrived in this star system, a level-four civilization fleet with a hyperdrive engine had appeared. This fleet had immediately attacked the human fleet.
Because the weapons of this fleet were really advanced, the human fleet was no match for them. Fortunately, the human fleet had heaven-defying assault armor. There were many experts in the human fleet, so they had put on assault armor and fought the enemy. In the end, they had repelled the enemy several times.
However, these good times had not lasted long. More level-four civilizations had appeared. These civilizations had united and kept attacking the human fleet. Two fists could not fight four hands, so the human fleet could only choose to escape from this star system. They had searched for a long time and finally found the stargate of this star system.
However, in the end, only a small portion of the human fleet had escaped. Most of the battleships had been destroyed, and many transport ships had been intercepted by various civilizations. A large number of humans had been taken away. Those humans had become slaves of the level-four civilizations and been imprisoned and sold along with many interstellar slaves.
That was why there were human battleships in this star system. A few years later, the Zergs had appeared in this star system. Many civilizations with sharp noses had discovered the Zergs and immediately attacked them.
However, the Zerg fleet was much stronger than the human fleet. After paying a huge price, the Zergs had escaped. The civilizations that had attacked the Zergs had also obtained huge benefits and plundered many Zergs’ population.
After enjoying the benefits, many civilizations had started camping in this star system. However, as time had passed, many civilizations had lost their patience and left.
Soon, thousands of years had passed. The fleet of the Skyfall Race had appeared there. Some very patient fleets had immediately charged over but had been beaten into a pulp by the powerful fleet of the Skyfall Race. In the end, they had only watched the fleet leave.
That was the rough idea of what had happened back then. Chen Xuanyue added, “It seems like the Solar System is recognized as the Forbidden Death Zone by all civilizations. Although there is a Star Path, no civilization dares to enter the Solar System. Legend has it that some races who entered the Solar System died in the end.”
Wei Huo asked, “How are the humans who were plundered?”
Chen Xuanyue replied, “The humans who were plundered were imprisoned and sold as slaves. Just like many other galactic slaves, some humans rebelled after obtaining a large amount of knowledge. Some succeeded, while others failed. It is said that some fleeing humans and Zergs joined forces and caused quite a stir in the Milky Way.”
Wei Huo stroked his chin and said, “I’m a little curious.”
The snake egg said, “Me too.”
Chen Xuanyue sighed in her heart. The Death God and the God Eater were curious about the civilizations that had plundered humans. That meant that these civilizations were not far from extinction.
Wei Huo asked, “Have you asked which civilizations have imprisoned human slaves?”
Chen Xuanyue replied, “51 civilizations participated in the siege of the Human Alliance. 12 of them have died out. The people of the 15th civilization became slaves of other civilizations. Five civilizations wandered around after losing their star system territories. The remaining 19 civilizations still have human slaves.”
Wei Huo took out a small blue ball. There were countless stars in the ball. He said, “Mark all 19 civilizations on the Star Map. After we build the hyperdrive engine, we’ll visit them one by one. I’m curious about the civilizations that can give birth to intelligence in the galaxy.”
The snake egg said, “It’s time for a change of meals. The souls of different civilizations seem to taste different.”
Chen Xuanyue could not help but mourn these 19 civilizations. Mythical creatures could really do whatever they wanted in the universe. They were really powerful and already violated the laws of physics. They could easily wipe out everything in the universe with a thought. Unless they faced another Mythical creature, they could not be stopped.
Wei Huo asked, “Are there no other Mythical creatures in the Milky Way?”
Chen Xuanyue said, “The Milky Way is too big. If it’s divided into nine rings from the core to the periphery, the Multi-Eyed Race has only come into contact with one-tenth of the Eighth and Ninth Rings of the Milky Way. This one-tenth alone has over 80 level-four civilizations and over 300 level-three civilizations.”
The snake egg asked curiously, “How are civilizations distinguished?”
Chen Xuanyue replied, “According to the information I just obtained through my interrogation, civilizations seem to be divided into seven levels. The first level includes civilizations that have just gained intelligence. In our Stone Age, the second level referred to a civilization that had become the overlord of the planet and started moving toward the universe. The third level refers to civilizations that have the ability to sail through the universe but have not grasped the technology of the hyperdrive engine. The third level can only travel to other star systems through the Star Paths, while the fourth level includes civilizations that have the technology of the hyperdrive engine. As for the higher-level civilization identification method, the Multi-Eyed Race is not sure what it is either. If they discover it, they will become a fifth-level civilization.”
