Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

The size of a blue giant star is unmatched by a yellow dwarf star.

After the two blue giant stars disappeared, the silicon ray energetically circled slowly around the human fleet, and from time to time it would "gently" tap the [Chiyou] fortress with its wide, flat pectoral fins.

It seems that it is very fond of these silver-white planet fortresses.

On the other side, Alcott's fleet has entered the small universe of the United Nations in despair - according to the agreement, they need to obey all arrangements of human civilization.

Including ideological stamp.

After the third-party civilization left, Silicon Ray began to explain to the "Enroget Civilization".

[The Sweepers may have tampered with that star field in high-dimensional space. 】

[Whether it is the surrounding star systems or the trajectory of the black hole, the neutralists are not aware of the problem. 】

Silicon Ray's tone was a little low: [I just received a message, not only from the Andromeda Galaxy, but also from the surrounding river systems. Similar battle reports. 】

[It is not difficult to guess that this is a huge plan that has lasted for a long time. 】

[A large number of factionless civilizations were forcibly captured and became subsidiary civilizations of the sweepers. 】

[We underestimated the sweepers. 】

[We used to think that the sweepers would be restricted by the original agreement, but now it seems... Hey! 】

"protocol?"

[Yes, the agreement between the neutrals and the sweepers. 】

[What do you think is the fundamental reason why neutralists can maintain absolute neutrality? 】

Lu Yongchang's eyes moved and he keenly captured the key points.

"……strength?"

【good. 】

[The neutral faction’s comprehensive strength is just at the balance node, which will neither make the pastoral faction feel threatened nor affect the sweeper’s plan. 】

[It is precisely for this reason that neutrality has a fatal attraction for many advanced civilizations - no one wants a war. 】

[But... once the number of advanced civilizations exceeds the limit, it is very likely to attract a joint attack from the pastoralists and sweepers. 】

Lu Yongchang suddenly realized.

This is a foreseeable situation.

During the fight between the two sides, no one wants to see the third-party force growing unscrupulously!

[Therefore, a long time ago, the neutral faction signed an agreement with the sweepers and pastoral faction. 】

[While ensuring that the number of neutral faction members does not exceed the threshold, sweepers cannot arbitrarily attack non-faction advanced civilizations. 】

[To a certain extent, this is also a limitation of the civilization of pastoral party sweepers. 】

[As for the old antiques of the Pastoral School... they are very pure, only dimensional creatures, and their overall strength will not change much. 】

Lu Yongchang understood.

The interstellar version has three pillars, right?

Come to think of it, this is also the fundamental reason why [Alcott Civilization] failed the potential test.

He took a deep breath and felt a slight sense of uneasiness in his heart.

"Now that the Sweepers have unilaterally tore up this agreement, what are the neutrals going to do?"

The balance has been initially broken. Isn't it easy to guess what will happen next?

The silicon ray fell silent.

【I...I don't know either. 】

[The neutral faction is not unified within itself. It is difficult to reach a consensus on this kind of matter in a short period of time. 】

[High probability... just pretend that nothing happened. 】

[Of course, hard-line members will definitely plan accordingly. 】

“Is the Silicon Alliance hard-liners?”

Lu Yongchang asked eagerly.

The answer to this question will be directly related to the next plan of human civilization!

[…It’s hard to tell. There are hard-line members and there are members who advocate peaceful development. 】

Silicon Ray's answer was vague.

But Lu Yongchang already got the answer he wanted.

The swimming movements of the silicon ray gradually slowed down.

Obviously, it did not adapt to this sudden change.

It raised its tail again and scratched its head vigorously: [Why is this happening...]

[Is it possible that the sweeper civilization has the confidence to face attacks from two forces at the same time? 】

Looking at the bright white text in the holographic projection, Lu Yongchang felt his heart skip a beat.

He suddenly thought of a major event in the history of human civilization.

Drawing of 2D fragments and Proxima Centauri tail plan.

According to Silicon Ray, studying dimensions is what all eighth-level civilizations are doing.

If the two-dimensional Proxima Centauri is acquired by the Sweeper civilization, and then uses it to master two-dimensional technology...

All this seems to make sense!

At this time, Lu Yongchang felt a strong chill rising from his back.

I'm the one behind the scenes?

At this moment, Lu Yongchang suddenly felt the fate, or the vast power of cause and effect.

Unstoppable, even undetectable.

【Little guy? 】

【Are you scared? 】

The information of the Silicon Ray Civilization flashed in the holographic projection, waking up the frightened Lu Yongchang.

"Feel sorry."

"We need to discuss the next countermeasures within the civilization."

Lu Yongchang responded like this.

[Are there any results? 】

Lu Yongchang has already made a decision.

"We decided... to leave the Andromeda Galaxy after being promoted to level seven civilization."

On the one hand, the balance of the three pillars has been broken, and troubled times are coming.

There was also a sense of urgency in his heart.

A seventh-level civilization has no ability to protect itself.

The banner of the neutral faction will expire sooner or later. It is better to rely on this banner to develop technology as quickly as possible while the neutral faction and the Silicon Alliance still have some power!

on the other hand……

The "Enroget Civilization" alias has been a bit out of place in the Andromeda Galaxy.

Didn't you hear the harsh words from the Andromeda branch of the Sweepers?

Once the war breaks out, who knows what kind of attack they will receive.

[Leave the Andromeda Galaxy...]

The huge silicon ray docked near the [Earth], and its tone became much heavier.

The communication channel also fell into silence.

After a long time.

The silicon ray civilization sent a tachyon message again.

[I hate war. ]

[When you decide to leave, you can call me. ]

[I hope... we can find a safe corner. ]

After saying that, the silicon ray swung its pectoral fins vigorously and flew towards the empty universe in the distance.

Lv Yongchang looked at the back of the silicon ray in a daze.

After a brief confusion, he came back to his senses and regained his original calmness.

"The fleet sets sail!"

"Head to the outer area of ​​Andromeda and look for a star field with relatively rich resources."

"Zero, wake up all the personnel of the Academy of Sciences immediately."

"From now on, all vacation plans will be postponed."

"Human civilization must become a level 7 civilization as soon as possible!"

...

The central black hole area of ​​Andromeda.

Next to the huge technological creation comparable to the size of a blue giant star, a row of spherical warships are lined up in a regular formation.

In front of these spherical warships, three relatively large planetary fortresses are parked around a smaller planetary fortress like a moon surrounded by stars.

Three [White Dwarf Fortresses] and one [Neutron Fortress].

This is the most powerful force of the Sweeper Andromeda Branch.
