Chapter 161: Discovering a Level-3 Civilization

“Hmm?”

Dugo was taken aback, retaking the star map and studying it closely.

Within the solar system, hundreds of thousands of s.p.a.cecraft were traversing the cosmic s.p.a.ce.

“Could it be, the Hunter Fleet hasn’t left?”

“No, it’s been 10 days since the two-star explosion, they couldn’t possibly still be here…”

Dugo pondered for a moment. A Level-2 civilization capable of traversing wormholes would surely know that a two-star explosion could cause gravitational waves to resonate in other galaxies.

In this case, they would certainly evacuate at the first sign of danger, to prevent getting trapped here.

“So, these s.p.a.cecraft… are they from a native civilization?”

The adjutant looked perplexed, “Commander, if these s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps belong to a native civilization, how could they have had two of their planets destroyed by the Hunter Fleet?”

Under normal circ.u.mstances, a Level-2 civilization would be capable of fortifying an entire galaxy.

Unless this civilization had just advanced to Level-2, but a newly advanced Level-2 civilization… how could it resist the Hunter Fleet?

Those who could venture out of their home galaxy to hunt in the universe would have to possess technology like particle black hole transformations and wormhole travel.

With this level of technology, even the most rudimentary Level-2 civilizations would easily defeat a newly advanced one.

“Very peculiar!”

Dugo shook his head, saying, “Maybe, this newly advanced Level-2 civilization encountered a crippled Hunter Fleet, and both sides engaged in a tug of war. Seeing no hope of victory, the Hunter Fleet destroyed two planets, attracting other civilizations…”

“It’s the only plausible explanation!”

The adjutant nodded, asking, “Commander, shall we send troops to obliterate this civilization?”

“No need!”

Dugo shook his head, “This native civilization has already revealed itself. We can wipe them out anytime. What’s important now is to mark the fleets of other civilizations, follow the trail to find their home galaxies…”

He could see clearly, the two-star explosion would undoubtedly attract a mult.i.tude of civilizations to send their fleets. These were the real targets of their mission.

“Given the time it takes for a Level-2 civilization to travel through wormholes, they could reach 1000 light-years in a maximum of io months. We’ll just patiently wait during this time!”

Although he was surprised that the native civilization had survived, Dugo didn’t care. As long as their objective could be achieved, that was all that mattered.

“Send out orders, set up detection equipment that won’t reveal our whereabouts…”

“Everyone, hide in the nearest planet, no one should take action without my command…”

Soon, after deploying a bunch of disguised detectors, the Great Whale Legion quickly disappeared into the planets.

“A large number of s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps have appeared in the neighboring star system…”

At the command s.h.i.+p in the solar system, Colonel Chu looked anxious as he reported the situation to Zhao Yu.

The gravitational wave detector showed a dense swarm of s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps wandering around the neighboring star system, a frightening sight.

They’re here!

Zhao Yu’s heart clenched, and he quickly asked, “How fast are these s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps? Can we determine what level of civilization they belong to?”

Colonel Chu looked bitter, “Their speed surpa.s.ses our s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps. The fastest one is more than ten times faster…”

Level-3 civilization!

Zhao Yu was shocked, he didn’t expect the Level-3 civilization to arrive so quickly!

What to do?!

As the two were discussing, most of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps in the detector entered a planet, disappearing from the screen.

” Huh?!”

Zhao Yu looked surprised, a bit puzzled, “What are they doing entering the planet?”

“I don’t know, could there also be intelligent civilizations in the neighboring star system?” Colonel Chu guessed.

Zhao Yu shook his head, immediately calling the mainframe of the command s.h.i.+p, ordering, “Have the fleet hold position for now…”

Soon, the fleet halted in the void.

Zhao Yu and the staff were all glued to the screen, not daring to blink.

In addition, they had two gravitational wave detectors constantly aimed at the wormhole’s location to see if the enemy had come through.

To their surprise, the next scene left everyone even more baffled.

On the screen, millions of s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps in the neighboring star system, after wandering around, all disappeared into one of the planets, completely vanis.h.i.+ng from sight.

“Could the wormhole be inside the planet?” Colonel Chu asked nervously.

He was worried that the enemy had begun to travel through, entering the solar system.

“Not possible!”

Zhao Yu shook his head, “According to relevant theories, wormholes only appear in independent cosmic s.p.a.ces, they can’t be inside planets…”

Although he couldn’t exchange wormhole-related technology right now, he was already aware of some basic information.

“What are they trying to do?!”

Colonel Chu was stunned for a moment, then quickly thought of something and said, “You said before, the s.p.a.ce-time ripples caused by the explosion of two stars spread to a range of 1,000 light years…”

“Could this Level-3 civilization be waiting for other Level-2 civilizations who come to observe the solar system, and then destroy them?”

“If I were a Level-3 civilization, knowing there’s activity in the solar system, I would definitely come to check it out, and think that other civilizations would also send fleets…”

“What I need to do then is get here first, then hide, and when other Level-2 civilizations arrive, 1 mark them one by one, follow them back to their home star…”

This wasn’t hard to a.n.a.lyze, and basically every civilization could figure it out.

However, the fleets that still dared to come were obviously confident, thinking they had the ability to be the hunters, not the prey.

Zhao Yu’s breath hitched, “If that’s the case, after all the capable civilizations have arrived, they would destroy us, right?!”

“No!”

Colonel Chu shook his head, “The Level-3 civilization has sent millions of wars.h.i.+ps here, certainly not to destroy a few fleets, most likely they’re to trace the home star systems behind these fleets…”

“So, before successfully marking the fleets of other civilizations and following them to their home star systems, the Level-3 civilization will likely continue to hide…”

“They must have also discovered us, but haven’t made a move, indicating they don’t care about us, thinking that with our home star system exposed, we can’t escape…”

Saying this, Colonel Chu paused for a moment, turned to look at Zhao Yu, and asked, “How long until we have the technology to travel through wormholes?!” “I don’t know!”

Zhao Yu shook his head. His t.i.tle of mysterious merchant was almost unusable now, he could only rely on the new t.i.tle of King of War, to destroy enemy military units to get technology points.

But exactly how many, he didn’t know.

Another way to get technology was through the reputation system, but now, although he had 300 points of reputation, there were still no available technologies to exchange, and he didn’t know how many points would be needed for that.

“Without wormhole traversal technology, we can’t escape far…”

Colonel Chu was somewhat dejected, originally thinking that Level-2 civilizations would arrive, giving them a chance to fight, but now, it was a Level-3 civilization that had arrived.

This meant that even if they won against the fleets sent by other Level-2 civilizations, they were still doomed.

Seeing that his staff were all somewhat downcast, Zhao Yu encouraged them, “If we can delay for a longer time, maybe the technology of the Pangu civilization could be transferred here, by then, we might also have weapons of Level-3 civilization level….”
