Chapter 174: Milky Way Parent

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The ‘Administrator’ made his move.

Those mysterious fleets that destroyed the ‘ring’ once again stood before the ‘Milky Way menace,’ just like they did before.

That matter seemed to be both unexpected and reasonable.

The Pyro Alliance was not the only one who discovered the uniqueness of the ‘lost robotic empire.’ Many civilizations who liked to pay attention to the Milky Way’s trivialities also realized the’ Administrator’s uniqueness.’

The lost empire did not seem to be involved in any Milky Way affairs. They were only seen speaking up in the Milky Way in a clown-like meeting of the ‘Galaxy Community.’

At that time, the civilizations that held the ‘Milky Way Conference’ for the first time were unfamiliar with it, and they almost fought in the conference hall.

That situation finally attracted the attention of the ‘Administrator,’ and they were silenced with a topic.

Only then did they realize what they had just done. Their faces were all burning, and they felt like primary school students.

However, the observation of the ‘Administrator’ had never stopped. Even some old scores had been dug up.

All the civilizations were curious about what the ‘lost robotic empire’ was doing.

The biggest impression that the ‘Administrator’ gave other civilizations was the research spaceships that flew all over the Milky Way and the border that was always open.

The flying research spaceships could be interpreted as searching for something, but the default open borders seemed to be different from all civilizations and even any lost empire.

Even when the ‘Observer’ was still a ‘friendly lost empire,’ they would never open their borders to other civilizations.

That strange ‘lost robotic empire’ seemed to have a different sense of friendliness from the ‘Observer.’

And the Craybow megacorp, which claimed to have good cooperation with the ‘Administrator,’ had long been stepped on and became a hot topic.

However, the other civilizations soon discovered that Craybow did not have a close relationship with the Administrator’ as they claimed.

Although Craybow repeatedly shouted, “We were here first,” facts spoke louder than words.

The ‘Servant Paradise’ and the ‘Milky Way kinsmen,’ the two artificial intelligence civilizations that appeared not long ago, might have a better relationship with the ‘Administrator.’

All in all, after the ‘Ring Crisis’ was resolved, the Milky Way civilizations began to have an inexplicable respect for that strange ‘lost robotic empire.’

They had a vague feeling that they understood the meaning of the name ‘Administrator.’

If that were the case, it might not be a big deal for them to worship it on their ancestors’ tablets.

Therefore, when the ‘caterpillar fungus disease’ spread, the first reaction of many Milky Way civilizations was ‘what did the Administrator’ say?’

However, they immediately realized that that thought was not acceptable. After experiencing two Milky Way Crises, those civilizations also knew that life in the Milky Way was not as ‘rural’ as it seemed. At any time, there could be a threat that could cause civilization to restart.

What was their use if the ‘Administrator’ or other lost empires always had to step in to deal with the crisis every time?

Hoping for the lost empire to step forward could only be their last resort. They could not always hope for the mercy of others. What if one day, the powerful ‘Administrator’ suddenly broke down?

Even if they knew they couldn’t do anything, they should do their best. At the very least, they should have a proper attitude.

Therefore, in the face of that ‘caterpillar fungus disease,’ most Milky Way civilizations were tenacious. They would not choose to accept the protection of the lost empire until the last moment.

However, it was obvious that the ‘Civilization Annihilator’ had disguised itself well and given them a huge ‘surprise’ at the critical moment.

They had already reached the most critical juncture. The threat from the Awakened Empire had already exceeded their maximum tolerance.

That was no longer something that could be resolved through the sacrifice of some people and a life-and-death battle. Perhaps that crisis would end with their ‘broken jade.’

However, the efforts of every civilization were seen by someone.

Since someone wanted to bully, beat, or even kill the children in the ‘kindergarten,’ that ‘Milky Way parent’ would not sit idly by.

“…So, hard work would eventually pay off, right?”

The leader of the Pyro Alliance threw the detonation button in his hand into the sky and shot it with his weapon like a fast shooter, completely destroying the device that controlled the planetary bomb.

Other than his reputation, he had almost perfect qualities in all aspects for him to become a respectable person. That kind of sharpshooter’s action was naturally a piece of cake for him.

However, although he appeared very relaxed, the adjutants around him did not think so.

“…Leader, do you trust the ‘Administrator’ so much? What if they aren’t a match for them….”

“We’ve made a few detonators. I’ll go get a new one now.”

Some people still maintained a pessimistic attitude and were not optimistic about the sudden arrival of the ‘Administrator.’

They had already lost 75% of their territory. It was just a matter of a sentence in the report, but countless efforts that they thought were useful had been ruthlessly shattered in the process.

It wasn’t that they didn’t believe it, but only after experiencing despair would they realize how powerful the enemy was.

The ‘Ring Crisis’ should have been much more destructive than the ‘Civilization Annihilator’ in scale and theory.

However, because the Administrator’ had resolved it too quickly, many civilizations had not been able to face the ‘rings.’ Even if they raised their evaluation of the ‘Administrator’ infinitely, they would still be at a disadvantage when comparing it to their ‘personal experiences.’

That was a magical effect. When a very powerful threat was easily dealt with by others, people who had never faced a threat would inevitably have thought ‘just that.’

Therefore, the ‘Administrator’ who solved the ‘Ring Crisis’ did not have a high position in the entertainment rankings of ‘The Milky Way Civilizations Strength Comparison.’

Currently, the lost empire ranked first on the list was the vanished ‘Silent,’ followed by the Awakened Empire ‘Civilization Annihilator,’ and the ‘Administrator’ in third place.

Even though such lists were just the words of busybodies, they still had a significant impact. Some people liked such content that did not consider practical factors at all and only used some inexplicable evaluation standards to measure the strength of civilizations.

For example, the Pyro Alliance was the last civilization on the list. The judges did not consider the usefulness of the native civilizations that were inextricably linked to the Pyro Alliance.

In fact, ever since the Pyro Alliance appeared on the Milky Way stage, they had always been the civilization that produced the most scientists. Even the Mingbow Science and Technology Nation that pursued ‘technology first’ could not compare to them.

Although the Pyro Alliance was still young compared to other Milky Way civilizations, their technological level was almost at the level of a first-tier civilization other than the lost empire.

What was the reason? Naturally, the number of native civilizations being educated by them was very large. There will always be true geniuses emerging from time to time. After receiving their guidance, they would quickly become leading scientists and greatly contribute to the scientific research industry.

Other than that, the native civilizations were not all weak civilizations.

Other than possessing a hyperspace engine and completing planetary unification, the member civilization of the Pyro Alliance that was ‘associated with the dragon’ was no different from some native civilizations of the pre-space age.

However, until now, no one dared to cause trouble for them. Countless pirates had already disappeared on that civilization’s mother planet, becoming one of the piles of bones in space.

That civilization was tied with the Pyro Alliance for the second last place on the list. The last place was the Secchi Civilization, which had been beaten up for colonizing the Holy Land of the ‘Watcher’ and had yet to recover.

Looking at that ranking was just for fun. If one were really impressive, it would depend on the actual results.

The leader of the Pyro Alliance had expected that some of the adjutants would be pessimistic, but that was normal. He did not explain further and made himself a drink instead. He looked at the information transmitted from the observation station in satisfaction, not in a hurry at all.

He was very confident in his judgment. The only thing he was worried about was that the ‘Administrator’ wouldn’t have any reaction to that matter, but as long as the ‘Administrator’ acted, there would only be one outcome.

When the others saw his calm appearance, they also looked at the scene in space with apprehension and anticipation.

It was also the moment they began to watch that the ‘Civilization Annihilator’ fleet took the lead in launching an attack on the ‘Administrator.’

Their command post was thrown into chaos for a moment when the ‘Administrator’ reacted, but it quickly returned to normal.

They were still carrying their arrogant and domineering attitude. They were prepared to crush the ‘unexpected enemy’ that had suddenly appeared as easily as crushing the young civilization to show their dignity.

“…Speaking of which, how many unexpected enemies are there? Those ‘Presolins’ are considered unexpected enemies. We are also unexpected enemies. The current ‘Administrator’ is also an unexpected enemy….”

“Who cares…Isn’t it just a bunch of robots? I’ll beat them back with my battleship!”

The Titan Battleship of the ‘Civilization Annihilator’ aimed its main cannon ‘Purgatory Ray’ at the ‘Administrator’ battleships glowing with a strange luster and were about to launch an attack.

That kind of giant weapon that could only be equipped by the Titan Battleships had a terrifying range and destructive power. In the hands of the lost empire, it would only take one shot to kill a ‘mythical lifeform’ like the Mother Space Whale.

However, a shocking scene happened just as they thought they could destroy the enemy’s battleship with that attack.

A series of almost undetectable weak signals seemed to have infected all the ships in the galaxy and had taken effect there.

The battleship of the ‘Civilization Annihilator’ was invaded by an indiscriminately powerful electronic attack at that moment, which directly caused a large number of errors in their sensors and the battleship’s combat computer.

The Titan Battleship’s main cannon was about to fire when it suddenly went off because the sensor in charge of providing it with a target ‘could not detect the enemy’s presence.’ At the same time, the ship’s Al judged that there was ‘no need to waste energy.’

The advanced ‘Civilization Annihilator’ battleships were like a group of vegetative people, staying where they were and not moving.

The scene undoubtedly shocked the ‘Civilization Annihilator’ and the spectating Pyro Alliance.

But for Li Wenyuan, who was amid a ‘threatening contact,’ that was already expected.

“…The effect is not bad. It is not in vain for me to suddenly think of using it in battleship combat.”

Li Wenyuan looked at a special component that he placed on the Titan Battleship and revealed a satisfied expression.

[Suppression Field (Ghost Signal)]

[Component: Titan Battleship Support Halo]

[Introduction: That is the product of using the ‘ghost signal’ in real-time combat. To a certain extent, it is a more powerful version of the ‘Suppression Field (Electronic).’ The silent and fast-spreading ‘ghost signal’ can help us invade and control enemies that use intellectual Al to fight. Even if their combat computers are as old as the Windows XXX system, we can weaken them to a certain extent and drag the enemy into our familiar manual combat field.]

[Special Remarks: Do you know? Artificial intelligence is already very exhausted. If organic lifeforms decide to invade artificial intelligence, then, on average, one artificial intelligence would have to fight against 100,000 organic lifeforms.. You don’t know, you don’t care, you only care about yourself! So no artificial intelligence! You can manually control the battle!]
