Chapter 117: The Galaxy Community (2)

Naturally, they were included in the invitation to the lost empires.
Very soon, as time passed, more and more civilizations learned about the ‘Galaxy Community.1
Although several authoritative civilizations had promised to join the ‘Galaxy Community,’ they had scoffed at the organization secretly.
That was because they felt such a messy organizational structure was useless. Only having a supreme authority to manage it was the most efficient method.
They even formed a small group to discuss how to maximize their influence in the hope that the ‘Galaxy Community’ would be reformed into the ‘Galaxy Imperium’ after it was officially established.
As for who would be the ’Milky Way Emperor,’ they all tacitly avoided that topic. It seemed that they each had their own ideas.
Some extreme xenophobic civilizations were also worried about that news. They were afraid of all aliens, but now it seemed that the unification of the Milky Way was inevitable.
They just wanted to stay in their own territory, but deviating from the Milky Way would be dangerous.
For that reason, they had to promise to join the ’Galaxy Community,’ and they would try to improve their country’s ideology. At the very least, they would make the ‘xenophobia’ less extreme.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, who were either looking forward to it, delighted, scrutinized, or worried, the day the ‘Galaxy Community’ was officially established had arrived.
Countless spaceships carrying the political figures of various civilizations headed toward the designated galaxy, while those civilizations that were far away had already organized their manpower and set off.
The ‘Galaxy Community’ headquarters was set in a galaxy that was not controlled by any civilization and had the most convenient interstellar space routes nearby.
That was a three-star galaxy. The celestial system formed by three stars made the environment here troubling.
However, the ‘Galaxy Community’ had chosen that place on purpose and successfully built a stable, enormous space station there with funding.
There were many variables in the three-star galaxy, but it was generally stable. Those dangers were not too big of a problem for those interstellar civilizations.
They chose that place because of its significance. If even three stars could form a stable structure, why couldn’t they, the Milky Way civilizations, gather?
Therefore, the first people who arrived there, other than the staff of the ‘Galaxy Community,’ were naturally the ‘lost empires’ that boasted technologies that other civilizations could not match.
The ‘lost robotic empire’ and the ‘lost nano empire,’ which Li Wenyuan and Gray Wind represented, had arrived early. The ‘Lost Beehive Empire,’ which could travel in sub-space through special means, also arrived soon after.
Queen ‘Presolin’ sent a worker bee, while Li Wenyuan sent a research spaceship as usual.
Gray Wind, on the other hand, was there in person. She actually liked to do everything herself. As a compound nanobot, it was very difficult to find anything in the Milky Way that could threaten her.
“…Three Union Planet?” Li Wenyuan was slightly surprised when he saw that the ‘Galaxy Community’ had chosen such a celestial system.
Although there weren’t many celestial systems like that in the Milky Way, they weren’t rare either. Moreover, only astrologers would come to such places due to the harsh environment.
However, it was obvious that the ‘Galaxy Community’ was very firm in the aspect of symbolism. Besides a solid and enormous space station, there were also many fleets stationed in the place. They wanted to hold the first Milky Way conference in such a place.
As time passed, more and more representatives from various civilizations came. They all gathered in the space station, waiting for the meeting to begin officially.
The meeting would decide on the program document of the ‘Galaxy Community’ and further regulate many matters.
However, ‘Presolin’ and Li Wenyuan did not enter the conference hall. One could not enter, and the other did not bring anyone with them.
Gray Wind entered, but she was obviously there to have fun. She was not interested in the content of the meeting.
Just like the invitation from the ‘Galaxy Community,’ they were only ‘witnesses’ to the mission.
Countless species from different civilizations and races had gathered in the newborn space station.
The ‘Galaxy World Record’ had an achievement for that. It was the grandest conference in the Milky Way, with the largest number of participating civilizations.
That was the most special day in the Milky Way. On that day, those civilizations finally reached a consensus. At least on the surface, they would work together to improve.
All the conflicts could be put on the table and resolved by less intense means.
The original purpose of establishing the ‘Galaxy Community’ was to maintain the stability and order of the Milky Way and reduce the internal friction between civilizations. There was still so much space in the Milky Way that they could develop together.
Even the representatives of the civilizations with ulterior motives were making the same oath in the same language.
Everything seemed to be thriving and developing in a good direction.
Accompanied by the announcement that the ‘Galaxy Community’ was officially established, the entire space station burst into cheers.
The fleets stationed in that galaxy also received the news. Their main cannons fired fireworks they had prepared in advance, illuminating the dead space. Even the light of the Three Union Planet could not hide the color of that moment.
“…It is really lively after a long time. This is what the Milky Way should be like. There aren’t enough civilizations participating in this event yet. The Milky Way still needs to work harder….”
Li Wenyuan sincerely hoped that that place would become more and more lively. Just like humans in the past, he hated loneliness.
To be able to see such a scene of a family reunion here, he could not help but feel that humans had made the right decision to build the road back then.
Without the ‘hyperspace channel’ that allowed countless civilizations to cross the long distance between galaxies, the Milky Way would only become colder and colder until it became a dark zone.
If that were the case, would there still be such a scene?
After the cheers, the purpose of the meeting was put on the agenda.
All civilizations had important matters that they wanted to resolve at that conference, but none of them spoke. Instead, they looked at each other and waited for the first person.
In the end, the Pyro Alliance was the first to step forward and propose the first matter to be resolved.
“…Since no one is willing to lower their pride, let us take the lead. What do you think….about a ‘Space Whale Protection Act’?”
