“What was that? Can alien civilizations do such ridiculous things now? Judging from the distance and the reference object, it seems to be about the same size as us, right?”

After seeing the video document that recorded aliens resolving Doomsday Strike, someone couldn’t help but ask this question. This was also what everyone was thinking.

If they saw it on the Internet, they would just laugh it off. After all, who would believe that Superman really existed?

However, the news of Seeker No. 2 broke their previous understanding. They couldn’t even understand how such a small object in the image could travel in space so easily.

The science fiction, or magic, that only existed in their movies and TV shows appeared before their eyes.

While they were still feeling smug that it took Seeker No. 1 more than 40 years to fly 21 billion kilometers away was a feat, the alien civilization had already developed to the point of grasping the sun, moon, and stars.

Since the other party had stopped Doomsday Strike, would they be noticed?

The staff members who were typing on the instrument froze in mid-air at the same time. Almost everyone realized that an alien civilization was coming.

Assuming that the other party had come with ill intentions, what would happen to them in the future?

Soon, the crackling sounds that had disappeared because of the pause in their movements rang out again, but everyone’s expressions were hidden in a shadow.

The sudden Doomsday Strike had already confirmed that the outside world was not very friendly. Their future would probably be dark.

Unlike the pessimistic state of these people, Gray Wind had yet to realize that his actions in space had been witnessed by these natives and had caused them a considerable blow.

The nanorobotic storm of an astonishing scale blocked the high-speed mutants of the Star Devourer. Under the effect of inertia, many of the Star Devourer mutants were knocked to death.

This also made Gray Wind realize the difference between this Star Devourer mutant and the Star Devourers in the Milky Way. The most obvious difference was the size.

This Star Devourer mutant was made up of a large number of miniature Star Devourers, which was different from the form of an entire life form like the Milky Way.

Strictly speaking, the ones here should be called star-devouring bugs. Those mosquito-sized Star Devourer mutants were most appropriately called bugs.

They could move by absorbing cosmic radiation, and they would glow in the process like ordinary Star Devourers.

Absorbing and transforming stellar matter was also one of their instincts. However, in general, this star-devouring bug swarm was actually a weakened version of the Star Devourer for many reasons.

“I roughly analyzed the genetic structure of these Star Devourer mutants. Guess what I found? There are no traces of genetic modification in their genes. They looked more like they had been artificially selected!”

Gray Wind reported her new discovery to Li Wenyuan with interest.

In the Milky Way, breeding was already an inefficient method. The interstellar civilizations that had mastered the secrets of genes would directly perform genetic modification, inserting and editing the required genes. Breeding would only appear in the immature interstellar civilizations or the indigenous civilizations.

However, the Star Devourer mutants that appeared here seemed to be creatures that had undergone countless generations of degeneration.

Not only had their bodies become smaller, but their corresponding abilities had also become weaker.

According to Gray Wind’s estimation, after the Star Devourer mutants stopped, the energy they released from the converted stellar material was not enough for them to escape the gravitational pull of the star.

At the same time, their efficiency in converting stars had also become very low. In the past, a Star Devourer could devour a star in forty to fifty years, but now, it was more than ten times that.

Judging from the current situation, this was the kind of creature that would never return. It was obvious that they did not evolve for survival. It was more like they were artificially cultivated by a civilization for a certain purpose.

As for the purpose, it was self-evident.

Li Wenyuan, who was setting up his belongings somewhere, also received the news from Gray Wind.

“I know. Since these Star Devourer mutants were unable to reach that speed, something must have provided them with an initial speed. Combined with this breeding method and the direction of flight, it was basically confirmed that it was done by the Native Civilization Beta.”

“How interesting. Is this an interplanetary strike? And the first thing they did was destroy the other party? There are no hyperspace routes here, so they are using such an inefficient but useful method to wage a war?”

He was also interested in this. After all, this situation was rare in the Milky Way. Almost all indigenous civilization scientists could discover the existence of hyperspace in the pre-space era and even the atomic era.

Instead of waiting for decades to prepare for a slow lightspeed attack, it would be better to directly attack the enemy’s door with a spaceship for a few months. Very few people considered the question of the speed of light.

However, the situation here was different. Other than being interested in the interstellar social environment and the development of civilization here, Li Wenyuan also wanted to know where the hyperspace had gone.

He could not figure out the reason from the remaining traces of hyperspace. Other than searching for possible human ruins, he believed that the civilizations of this galaxy might know something.

Civilizations that had reached the atomic age had more or less gained knowledge of the universe. Even indigenous civilizations might be able to find clues.

Thus, Li Wenyuan continued to speak to Gray Wind, “If you’re interested, you can go to the Native Civilization Alpha and help me look through the top-secret information of their countries.”

After receiving an affirmative answer, he prepared to go to another place after settling down his belongings, which was the Native Civilization Beta that had launched the Star Devourer attack.

In terms of means, the technology level of the Native Civilization Beta should be higher. They could even strike across galaxies.

The abnormal acceleration of the Star Devourer’s movement had also piqued his interest in this civilization. He felt that this civilization would definitely tell him something.

At this time, Gray Wind had arrived at the native civilization Alpha.

She flew in the sky in her human form, and the nanomachines that were invisible to the naked eye were integrated into the civilization, using the convenient network to download the history of this place.

At the same time, she also found that the indigenous creatures here seemed to have a large-scale panic. Some people were holding large-scale protests, but more people were rushing to buy supplies. There were riots from time to time, as if the end of the world had arrived.

“Isn’t the Star Devourer mutant already taken care of? Why are they still rioting?” With curiosity, Gray Wind quietly slipped into the crowd..
