Chapter 300: This Is Called Zero-Element Armor

He shifted his gaze to Li Wenyuan. It had been some time since he had settled down his belongings.

Since he found that the place he had come to was at the edge of the spiral galaxy, he decided to settle down in a galaxy near the Native Civilization Alpha and extend the range of the starfield.

If the two native civilizations had the ability to observe faster-than-light, they would have discovered that there were suddenly a few bright stars in the sky that did not exist before.

After everything was settled, the sentry formation that he had packed in advance began to work, allowing him to know the situation of the nearby large starfield like the back of his hand.

Because of this, he discovered an interesting phenomenon.

He had detected a large number of signs of civilizations. Not only that, but a few civilizations were still in a state of war.

He even saw a fleet moving at one-fifteenth of the speed of light. It was sailing in space, and its target seemed to be another civilization.

“The density of civilizations here is unexpectedly high. There are actually more than 20 civilizations within the surveillance range of this sentry formation…”

This density was already higher than the Milky Way, and this was only at the edge of the galaxy.

If the sentry formation was placed at a suitable location in the galaxy, based on this density, perhaps hundreds of civilizations could be discovered. In that case, the total number of civilizations in this spiral galaxy would most likely be more than the Milky Way.

“Perhaps it would be safer if he couldn’t surpass the speed of light? They didn’t know each other’s existence, and there wouldn’t be a war if there was no communication. It might not be a bad idea to just leave it like this?”

After thinking about it, he rejected this idea.

Everything that happened in the Epsilon Shelter was still in the database. Unable to travel faster than light speed, they were trapped to death by limited resources, or they were restarted in a major disaster and went through the process of civilization again. This was probably the end of the cycle of civilization here.

“Perhaps…The civilization here has already gone through several cycles?”

With that thought in mind, Li Wenyuan jumped to the galaxy of the Native Civilization Beta according to the coordinates provided by the sentry formation.

At the same time, a celebration party was being held inside the native civilization.

“We have detected that the star-devouring bug has arrived at the predetermined location. Although it is still halfway through the observation platform, it should have already arrived in the galaxy of that ignorant civilization.”

These people were celebrating the fact that they had eliminated a potential enemy and were also happy that they had survived another day in the Dark Forest.

The star-devouring bugs that they cultivated did not have an immediate destructive effect, but they knew that all living things were fragile. As the origin of all life, a slight mutation in the star was enough to lead to the extinction of the planet’s life.

This subtle method of extinction also had the effect of being difficult to trace after the fact. In this way, their location would still be safe and would not be discovered and attacked by other civilizations with the same mentality as them. This was a lesson they had learned through blood and tears.

Here, every civilization was both the hunter and the prey. There was no win-win cooperation, only a chain of suspicion formed because they could not surpass the speed of light.

“Speaking of which, although we have been silent for a long time, we seem to have discovered another signal of an innocent civilization some time ago… How long was it before the Magic Mirror revolved to its predetermined position?”

“We still have to wait for 53 years. The location this time isn’t too good. It just so happens that it’s quite far from the Magic Mirror. Moreover, the angle isn’t good either. The preparation work is quite troublesome…”

Among the people attending the celebration party, some of the higher-ups began to whisper again, repeatedly mentioning something called the Magic Mirror.

It was a mysterious space that they had discovered about 400 years ago. It was about the size of an ordinary planet, and they had discovered that objects could be rapidly accelerated to light speed after entering this space.

This incredible phenomenon was named Magic Mirror by them, and they designed a series of faster-than-light galactic strike systems around this space to destroy their potential enemies. Even the star-devouring bugs were specially optimized for this purpose.

In the whispers, although they understood that the time had not come yet, everyone was full of confidence because they felt that they had the absolute advantage.

However, not long after, someone suddenly rushed into the celebration party in a panic and brought shocking news.

An unidentified flying object was approaching them!

At that moment, Li Wenyuan’s drone flew past the native civilization and transmitted the general features of the planet back to the research spacecraft.

When he first entered this place, he realized that the civilization here was indeed more advanced. He could see spaceports and space battleships here.

However, when he tried to communicate with this civilization, he found that the other party did not respond, as if all communication had been cut off.

Since the other party was unwilling to communicate, he could only choose to gather information himself. Therefore, he sent out the drone, but he did not expect it to cause a fierce reaction from the other party.

He saw several strange-looking small aircraft take off from the planet and began to chase after his drone. It seemed that they wanted to shoot down his drone.

“So xenophobic? Aren’t they afraid that this will lead to more serious consequences?”

Even though he was complaining, his drone was still collecting data at a speed that was far beyond the reach of small aircraft.

At this moment, the command center of this native civilization was in chaos.

“Why? The speed of Firing Pin has clearly accelerated to 62 kilometers per second, but why is it still unable to catch up to the UFO?”

“It’s not even streamlined! Yet, its speed is 100 kilometers per second! What exactly is its origin?”

These people were extremely frightened because their greatest near-ground defense was this high-speed aircraft called Firing Pin.

Its surface was made of a material with strong interaction force, and its biggest feature was that it was sufficiently hard.”

At a sufficiently high speed, hardness would become the best weapon. It would not be a problem to directly pierce through a planet.

However, all of this was based on the premise that they could catch up with the other party. Now, the UFO was about to escape its scanning range.

However, the next moment, they realized that the UFO suddenly slowed down and stopped in place.

This undoubtedly made them overjoyed. In addition to letting the Firing Pin shoot down the UFO, they were also analyzing the reason for its sudden stop and finally came to a conclusion: The opponent had exhausted all his energy during the prolonged acceleration.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief because this meant that their crisis was over. No matter which civilization this UFO came from, they would not be able to get any information about this place.

Therefore, they all looked at the high-speed flight of the Firing Pin with interest, as if they could not wait to see the other party being smashed.

However, at this moment, a researcher who had been observing the UFO all this time suddenly narrowed his eyes and stood up with a thud. He shouted, “Wait! That material is…”

In the next second, the Firing Pin shattered.

The impact lasted less than a second, but in the eyes of these people, it seemed as long as a century.

They seemed to clearly see the Firing Pin starting from the head, breaking and shattering bit by bit, revealing the internal structure, and then shattering together with the structure.

This moment passed in a flash, but the UFO was still intact, without any damage, and the wreckage of the Firing Pin disappeared under inertia.

At this moment, the researcher who was halfway through his sentence said, “That seems to be a neutron star matter….”
