Chapter 401: The Change of the Silent
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The ‘Exile’ Galaxy, which originally only had three ‘Exterminator’ Civilizations, welcomed a fourth civilization, or rather, a part of the fourth civilization.
Li Wenyuan used the coordinates provided by the ‘Silent’ to enter the galaxy directly using the warp drive. He did not interact with the ‘cage’ that sealed the galaxy.
Other than the ‘Silent,’ the other two civilizations in the galaxy did not realize that a new ‘Outsider’ had arrived.
Since the ‘Silent’ was also looking for something, Li Wenyuan simply disguised his spaceship after the ‘Silent’ model.
It was indeed difficult to disguise as a pure energy battleship. For example, one could discover clues by detecting the gravitational anomaly produced by the spaceship. In theory, the energy battleship of the ‘Silent’ had almost no mass, so the gravitational anomaly it could produce was very limited.
But Li Wenyuan’s spaceship was a physical object. Although its mass wasn’t large and was almost non-existent compared to planets and stars, it was still possible to detect that degree of gravitational anomaly with the technological strength of the civilization in that galaxy.
However, he only needed to imitate the appearance of that pure energy. The ‘Silent’s’ characteristics in that galaxy were already very eye-catching. As long as one saw the appearance of the glowing hull, everyone would subconsciously think it was the ‘Silent’s’ spaceship.
His primary goal was to find the ‘Purification Terminal’ and understand why humans went there. As for the location of the ‘Purification Terminal,’ the ‘Silent’ was not sure, and the Observation Terminal that could find the ‘Purification Terminal’ did not exist in that galaxy.
In that regard, Li Wenyuan could only start from the abnormal areas in that galaxy. He wanted to find ancient ruins of civilizations that might have existed there and search for clues related to those special planets.
He had learned about the ‘Exiled’ from the ‘Silent,’ and he also knew that there didn’t seem to be any civilization in the ‘Exile’ Galaxy.
However, he didn’t think that was a ‘natural situation’ there. That abnormality clearly represented something that had happened there. That might not only be related to the experiments of the ‘Scribe’ but also to humans.
Therefore, the first place he went to was the ‘Wound.’ That place had traces of the ‘void’s’ existence. He believed that humans would not miss such a place.
In view of the danger of that place, the ‘Exiled’ had given up on the research of that place. They only allowed it to function as a ‘Hell Defense Line.’
The ‘Silent’ had just warned them not to touch those subspace rifts, so it was impossible for them to show any interest in studying that place. For that reason, Li Wenyuan needed a suitable method to study that place secretly.
Coincidentally, the ‘Silent’ had the means.
“…Do you really want to study the ‘void’? This is really…Alright, we only hope that if you attract anything extraordinary, you can inform us…”
Although the ‘Silent’ was a little reluctant to allow exploration of the subspace rifts in the Wound,’ it seemed that they still found ways to help Li Wenyuan out of their trust in humans.
“Our understanding of the space-time field is quite deep. We are not boasting. We can create a unique distorted invisible cubic space to wrap your spaceship. The outside world can’t detect the existence of the invisible field, but nothing is affected in the invisible field.”
That was something the ‘Silent’ and their compatriots, the ‘World Breaker,’ did not show in the Milky Way. Although energy bodies were also ‘invisible’ to a certain extent, they would be exposed as long as there was targeted detection.
And that was the first time Li Wenyuan had seen an invisible cubic space formed using space-time theory. After understanding it, the ‘Silent’ told him, “This is a technology based on my understanding of this universe’s ‘plane barrier.’ According to your plane, this kind of general object that gathers laws and applications is a kind of ‘technology.’”
“After we left the Milky Way, we discovered that this universe’s ‘plane barrier’ is not so difficult to understand. Moreover, the space outside the Milky Way is not very stable. We can have a rather effective influence on the ‘plane laws’ outside the Milky Way.”
“We believe this is because the space in the Milky Way is a little different. Like the ‘cage’ here, the Milky Way is also covered with a special ‘Curtain’ by humans. Compared to the ‘cage,’ the ‘Curtain’ has even changed some of the ‘plane laws’ inside. For example, the space inside the Milky Way is obviously much stronger than the universe outside the Milky Way.”
“Our ‘Matter Separator’ is unable to achieve its original power in the Milky Way, but it has always been successful outside the Milky Way. After leaving the Milky Way, we realized that we are actually quite powerful.”
When the ‘Silent’ said that, there was a hint of regret in their voice. It was obvious that they understood why their ‘invasion’ had failed so thoroughly.
Apart from encountering humans, the location they chose to invade was also a bad choice. It happened to be the Milky Way where the ‘Curtain’ was built. The internal laws of the universe had changed to a certain extent. Even the experimental ‘Curtain Penetrometer’ could produce a huge effect that could be called a ‘Wishing Machine.’
They still remembered that when humans evaluated the signature weapon of the ‘World Breaker,’ the ‘Matter Separator,’ they didn’t give a high evaluation. It was even inferior to their weapon.
However, outside the Milky Way, the weapons of the ‘World Breaker’ could penetrate the protection of the ‘Hunter’ battleship, causing huge damage. The reason for that was obviously because of the different cosmic environments.
That was indeed out of Li Wenyuan’s expectations. The current ‘Silent’ indeed had the demeanor of a ‘World Breaker.’
And after obtaining the unique Spatial Invisible Field Technology of the ‘Silent,’ he used the ‘invisible’ spaceship to come to the ‘Wound’ Galaxy to check out the abnormalities.
The space fortress of the ‘Hell Defense Line’ was still operating, but it was positioned far away from the subspace rifts for safety reasons. Li Wenyuan’s probe had not been detected.
There was no result from the detection of those subspace rifts. Just like the nature of the void, nothing seemed to be the norm there, and Li Wenyuan could not find any traces of humans there.
However, despite his disappointment, he was also wondering if there was a need for some kind of ‘condition’ to discover the abnormality.
After all, the ‘Exiled’ had been stationed there for so long and had never encountered anything. If there were any obvious abnormalities, they should have appeared long ago.
Finally, he remembered the ‘Void Eggs’ that had yet to hatch in the MegaCorp Galaxy.
The ‘Assimilation Fighters’ had been studying the secrets of the eggs, and they should have some results recently..
