Each time, one would be able to make oneself a little stronger. Under the endless cycle of time, the platform that had been accumulated would be much higher than any other civilization, and the path that one could walk would be longer.
If other civilizations had already reached the end of their path, but your path seemed to have no end, in the long run, everyone could only look at your back from afar and choose to submit.
“…So, could this be one of the secrets of how powerful humans are?” Li Wenyuan felt that it was possible.
From all the signs, humans had far surpassed any civilization in the Milky Way. Perhaps no matter in the past or in the future, there would never be an existence stronger than humans in this Milky Way.
However, there was nothing he could do other than watch that Level 10 technology shine on the technology tree because it was too difficult to research.
According to his estimations, it would take him at least 2,000 years to cycle that technology once. His current research ability was not enough to support him in carrying out such difficult research.
“…The road ahead is still very long…I think I have to at least cycle this technology a thousand times. It’s rare for the Milky Way to return to peace, and the Galaxy Community has been established. Everything is developing in a good direction. Not bad….”
Li Wenyuan shook his head and began his ’megastructure project.’ He was extremely passionate about those large and strong buildings.
So when he lost his focus on the outside world, a new round of performances was ushered in on the Milky Way stage.
In an inconspicuous small galaxy, there was a faint abnormal movement coming from it.
In the Milky Way, that galaxy was named on the star map after the discoverer. However, the discoverer mysteriously disappeared not long after, and no one knew where he went.
However, that was only a small matter. Every year, countless space adventurers disappeared for various reasons, so the disappearance of that discoverer did not attract much attention.
Perhaps only his relatives and friends would remember that and try to find a person who had disappeared into the vast galaxy.
Looking at that inconspicuous small galaxy. The reason why it was inconspicuous was that there were no real stars in that galaxy.
The most massive object in the galaxy was a ‘Brown Dwarf.’
The mass of such a planet was greater than that of a giant gas planet, but it was much smaller than an ordinary star. Its mass was only 5% of the Sun.
It didn’t absorb enough material during its evolution, and its small mass prevented it from undergoing a fusion reaction, thus becoming a shining star.
Because of that, the Milky Way called this ‘Brown Dwarf’ a ‘failed star.’
The planets that made up that ‘brown dwarf galaxy’ were pitifully few. There were only two planets and a few other asteroids.
To some extent, that was a place forgotten by the Milky Way.
No one would care about such a place. Even the astrologers who specialized in Brown Dwarfs would not choose that place because it was too remote.
Only the missing space adventurer would drift to such a place during his wandering and discover that place.
But now, there was a commotion in that inconspicuous place.
On the barren planet, some transparent light began to appear.
They seemed to be filled with nothingness, and their floating bodies seemed to be unaffected by any physical laws. They floated bit by bit, then gathered bit by bit, and finally gathered into the appearance of some kind of ‘lifeform.’
It was difficult to describe the appearance of those ‘lifeforms’ at first glance. They seemed to be life from another dimension, so their appearance did not apply to this universe. It was full of abstract and chaos.
However, perhaps it was because the consumption of maintaining that ‘original form’ was too great. They had to choose to adapt to the rules here and gradually became the appearance of the Milky Way lifeforms.
If the relatives of the missing adventurer were there, they would definitely be able to recognize the appearance of that creature.
That was because their appearances were almost identical to that adventurer. Only a part of the details that were used to distinguish them were different.
After those creatures appeared in that barren land, they began to communicate in their own language.
Upon hearing, that was not any language in the current Milky Way. It was just like their previous appearance, full of chaos and abstract.
However, as communication progressed, those complicated languages began to simplify and gradually filled with order. Soon, they formed words that could be understood.
“…I can feel that the solid space here is weakening again. It’s obvious that the technology of the shattered space structure has been abused again. This may be an opportunity.”
“Opportunity?” Among those creatures, some of them showed extremely obvious disdain.
“You woke us up just for this? Have you forgotten how those terrifying ‘demons’ captured our companions and used them as consumables to extend the range of time and space?”
This time, the words of the person who spoke made the others tremble. A few of them almost couldn’t maintain their stable lifeform appearance and had to return to their luminous appearance.
The surface of the entire desolate planet fell silent again as if everyone was silent because of that.
Until someone suggested in a very weak voice, “…Perhaps, we can use this disguise to take a look at this Milky Way secretly? As long as we maintain the rules of ‘civilization,’ we may not be discovered….”
His suggestion caused a brief uproar in the crowd, but the result was still unexpected. The number of people who agreed with the idea beat those who disagreed with the idea by a small margin of 51%.
“Foolish!” Someone was quite angry. “I think you’ve lost your minds! A useless lifeform of this world makes you so ambitious? Have you forgotten why we are hiding in this godforsaken place?”
However, someone immediately interrupted him, “Their lives arc not eternal, and their civilization will not last long. This is the essence of this dimension.”
“Even though they were very powerful at that time, they have already disappeared. The images I saw in the memories of that lifeform from this world tell me that this is the best opportunity.”
“Even if they didn’t disappear but went somewhere else, as long as we grab enough energy before they come back, we can still open the teleportation gate and leave this damn place before they arrive!”
“Crazy! This is crazy! I won’t fool around with you. I’ll hide here until this universe returns to silence!”
The opposing ones angrily shook off their bodies and were about to leave that place when they saw the radicals suddenly move. They killed many of the opposing ones with lightning speed and then absorbed the scattered energy into their bodies.
“…A bunch of terrified cowards. We are not asking for your permission but informing you.”
“You who have lost your desires are no longer worthy of being our companions. Let your bodies become the first resource for our expansion…………………………………………………… “
