"Let him answer me honestly first: what is your relationship with the force behind this pattern?" Zhao Chen squinted at Onyne, the Kaguya Elf King, whose emotions were clearly fluctuating greatly.

The Elf King Onyne, gritting his teeth, roared, "Explain yourself first! What is your relationship with this force?!"

At this moment, the Elf King Onyne was completely different from his usual icy demeanor, exuding a murderous aura from head to toe.

Seeing the two of them locked in a standoff, Queen Maritis, the Water Fairy, said suspiciously, "I feel like there might be some misunderstanding between you two."

First, let's define a problem.

So, you two are enemies, not friends, with the forces behind this symbol, right?

Zhao Chen and Kaguya Elf King Onyons looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

Seeing this, Queen Maritis, the Water Fairy, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, no matter what, you are not enemies."

Let go of me first, then we can sit down and have a proper talk.

Zhao Chen and the Elf King Onyons were silent for a moment. Zhao Chen said, "I'll let go. Calm down."

"Hmph." The Elf King Onyons of Kaguya snorted coldly, but in his heart, he gained a further appreciation for the strength of this Dragon Emperor.

As is well known, the physical abilities of humans are considered to be below average among the many interstellar races.

The physical attributes of the elves in the Holy Elf Empire are undoubtedly among the best.

The Kaguya Elf King Onyne has an identity that outsiders may have forgotten: he was once the champion of close combat within the Kaguya Elf race.

This ancient form of close combat is something that only the Kaguya elves have preserved.

The other elves had long since given up.

Just now, this Dragon Emperor was able to completely suppress him, leaving him no room to resist.

It's easy to imagine just how terrifying the physical attributes and combat power of the Dragon Emperor must be to be able to suppress the Kaguya Elf King Onyne.

Zhao Chen released his grip at this moment, but he did not let his guard down.

The Elf King Onyneus stood up with a cold face, looked at the Dragon Emperor, and did not make a move.

Both sides returned to their respective positions.

However, the atmosphere at the scene remained somewhat tense.

It's clear that if this misunderstanding can't be resolved, tensions between the two will inevitably escalate!

"Alright, everyone, sit down and have a good talk."

"Zhao Chen, you tell us first, how did you know about this pattern?" Seeing the atmosphere, the Azure Water Elf Queen Marytis had no choice but to step forward and speak.

Zhao Chen didn't hide anything and told the Elf King Onynees about the pattern he had discovered during the investigation of this attack.

After listening to Zhao Chen's story, the Elf King Onyne's expression softened considerably, but it returned to its previous icy demeanor.

"Okay, I've said everything I needed to say."

Now it's your turn.

How did you know about this pattern?

"I think you must know a lot of things, otherwise you wouldn't have been so excited just now." Zhao Chen squinted at the Kaguya Elf King Onyons in front of him.

After a moment of silence, the Elf King Onyons of Kaguya said with a cold look in his eyes, "Maritis, do you still remember the tragedy that happened in the Nightfall Galaxy six hundred years ago?"

"Nightfall Galaxy?" Upon hearing this term, the usually gentle and composed Queen Maritis, the Azure Water Elf, underwent a sudden change in expression.

Kaguya Elf King Onyons glanced at Zhao Chen, then raised his hand and, with a series of gestures, opened a document.

The multiple operations clearly demonstrate that this document is encrypted in layers.

Finally, they even scanned some of the biological information of the Kaguya Elf King Onyne before they could fully open it.

"The Nightfall Galaxy was once the third largest galaxy of our Kaguya Elf race, and it was once very prosperous."

However, a tragedy occurred in the Nightfall Galaxy six hundred years ago.

In a single day, the entire Nightfall Galaxy was reduced to ashes!

Hundreds of billions of Kaguya elves perished in that catastrophe.

As he said this, the Fairy King Onyne clenched his fists, his body radiating boundless rage!

Zhao Chen looked curious; he had seen this matter before when he was reviewing the historical records of the Holy Elf Empire.

However, there is very little relevant record information; it is mostly just mentioned in passing.

The destruction of a galaxy has actually occurred in many universes.

However, most of these situations are predictable, with local authorities preparing for the evacuation in advance, a process that can take years or even decades.

However, it is extremely rare for a galaxy to vanish without warning, like the Nightfall Galaxy.

"What you saw in the records should be that the Nightfall Galaxy was wiped out in a cosmic catastrophe," said Onyrons, the Elf King of Kaguya, coldly.

Zhao Chen nodded.

Then he said, "Actually, there's another reason, isn't there?"

King Onyrons of Kaguya took a deep breath and pointed to several photos and images that appeared in the document, saying, "Perhaps none of you know this."

The Nightfall Galaxy is my home. Back then, I was just a child, a Kaguya elf. My family and parents sent me to the academy in the First Galaxy to study, hoping that one day I could achieve something.

But to my utter surprise, when I returned to my home galaxy, I could no longer find my family.

My parents, my brothers and sisters, all perished in that disaster.

The Elf King Kaguya announced to the public at the time that it was a natural cosmic catastrophe.

The Elf King Onyne clenched his fists, his cold expression tinged with anger: "But our galaxy has always been operating normally, how could such a cosmic catastrophe suddenly occur?"

Although my family is gone, thanks to their connections, I returned to the Nightfall Galaxy, which was under lockdown at the time. These are some images I captured back then.

Zhao Chen carefully examined the scene before him and was astonished to find that the images within this galaxy were extremely bizarre.

You can see shattered planets, broken interstellar warships, and even stars that have lost their light and are fragmented.

The entire galaxy seemed to be a forgotten place trapped in an abyss, devoid of any signs of life.

This is indeed a scene from a disaster.

However, scientists who have studied the science of interstellar and cosmic natural disasters can see at a glance that this is definitely not caused by natural cosmic disasters.

This is done artificially in some way!

"So that's how it is."

I remember the record at the time was that one day, all communication between the Nightfall Galaxy and the outside world was suddenly cut off.

All stargates connecting with the outside world were severed, which even caused some starships traveling to the Nightfall system to disappear during subspace travel, resulting in accidents involving hundreds of interstellar warships.

Even the fleet that attempted to use warp drive to reach the Nightfall system to investigate the matter encountered extremely strong space storms when it approached the interstellar boundary of the Nightfall system, making it difficult even for T5-class interstellar warships to get close.

These effects did not subside until a day later.

Only the fleet that subsequently went to investigate could enter. "The Azure Water Elf Queen Maritis recalled the situation at the time and muttered to herself, "Who would have thought that this was actually man-made?"

But what force could possess such terrifying power?

Zhao Chen looked thoughtful and said from the side, "So, this was done by someone?"

"A certain interstellar force, without alerting the Holy Elf Empire at the time, destroyed your Nightfall Galaxy a single day ago!"

"But.

"Back then, our Holy Elf Empire could be said to be the strongest interstellar civilization in the known universe!" Queen Maritis of the Azure Water Elfs muttered in disbelief.

"Nothing is impossible."

"Aren't there still people attacking the Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Star Empire?" Kaguya Elf King Onyons glanced at Zhao Chen.

The implication in those words is quite obvious.

Even now, someone dares to attack the powerful and influential Emperor Xiaolong.

In the past, attacking a galaxy was not impossible.

"So you just blocked the news back then?" Zhao Chen asked curiously.

Kaguya Elf King Onyne said, "Yes, the Elf King at that time convened a meeting at the Elf King level."

Because the attackers' forces were unknown and their strength was undoubtedly extraordinary, the Elf Kings decided not to disclose the matter to the public until it was fully investigated.

After all, there are still threats from outside, such as the devouring of civilizations and order. The Holy Elf Empire was already being weighed down by a huge mountain, and it was only maintaining order on the surface.

If this matter were to be exposed at this time, and the morale of the lower and middle classes collapsed, it would be a disaster for the Holy Elf Empire.

That's how this decision came about.

The matter was then handed over to the then-Elf King Kaguya for investigation.

However, this matter was never fully investigated until the time when the Kaguya Elf King stepped down.

"Not even an Elf King could investigate this thoroughly?" Zhao Chen asked suspiciously.

The Kaguya Elf King Onyons saw through Zhao Chen's guess and said calmly, "You don't need to think about those things. That Kaguya Elf King has no ulterior motives."

And he has always taken care of me; he is my uncle.

My mother also died in that disaster; she was my uncle's most beloved sister.

He had been investigating this matter, even risking his life to travel to many places, which resulted in him developing many incurable diseases; otherwise, he wouldn't have passed away so early.

In all his centuries of investigation, all he handed over to me were some intelligence information.

One of the patterns that appears multiple times is this one.

Kaguya Elf King Onyne displayed several patterns that were very similar to the one Zhao Chen had shown.

"You were right before, this pattern should symbolize this interstellar civilization of unknown origin."

They possess advanced interstellar technology and have long coveted our universe.

However, for some reason, they have only been able to send a portion of their power over, and have not been able to fully enter our universe.

We also discovered some textual information about them, and the meaning of some of the words that appeared in it.

We call this interstellar power the "Conqueror Civilization," and their civilization is filled with the atmosphere of plunder and conquest.

They possess at least near-T7 level interstellar civilization technology, and have been at this technological level for at least several hundred or even several thousand years.

Furthermore, they should also possess several powerful technological advancements.

The Elf King Onyne looked at Zhao Chen and continued, "This is similar to the supernova ultimate bomb technology that your Xiaolong Interstellar Empire possesses."

The tragedy in the Nightfall Galaxy years ago was probably caused by their use of similar advanced technology.

This also explains why this conqueror civilization, despite having reached near-T7 level, was not destroyed by the Order.

"It's because they, like your Wyvern Interstellar Empire, possess such advanced technology that they've been able to stand against the established order until now."

Zhao Chen squinted: "But this civilization does not exist among the known civilizations in the universe."

"You are probably already familiar with a theory called the 'cosmic group theory'."

Different universes can also have a clustering effect; when multiple universes come together, they form a 'universe cluster'.

Communication and interaction between universe clusters will be more convenient. Once you reach an interstellar civilization of T5 or higher, you will be able to travel between universe clusters.

Once you reach the T6 interstellar civilization, you will be able to explore the frontiers of the entire universe.

Between cosmic clusters, there are vast dark regions, much like the oceans separating continents.

This vast, dark region is difficult for our T6 technological civilization to traverse on its own.

It is estimated that only true T7 interstellar civilizations possess the ability to communicate between cosmic clusters.

The Azure Water Fairy Queen, Maritis, frowned: "That's not right."

If this conqueror civilization is merely a near-T7 interstellar civilization, then how did they acquire the technological capability to reach our universe cluster?

The Elf King Onyne said in a deep voice, "This is the investigation and research I am conducting."

Using the intelligence I obtained from my uncle regarding the conqueror civilization, I continued my investigation.

Later I discovered that in every galaxy where these conqueror civilizations appeared, there had been one thing.

White hole! "

Zhao Chen and the Azure Water Elf Queen Marytis showed surprised expressions.

Everyone knows that white holes exist, but compared to black holes, they are much less well-known.

The reason for keeping a low profile is that finding a white hole is much more difficult than finding a black hole.

Because white holes are very well hidden.

Unlike black holes, which are always present, white holes are located in unpredictable places!
