Chapter 295 Space Battle Royale

[This is the place where our life originated. I don’t know what you would call this place, but we call it the “cradle”]

[Thanks to the unimaginably superior natural environment here, almost all the first civilizations born quickly flew to the stars and gradually explored this galaxy]

[We have also experienced a long and complex era of interstellar society, but we all finally converge on the same idea. We believe that our unique environment is to allow us to become "pioneers" and inspire other civilizations]

【Little did you know that destruction was coming】

[At first, one and two stars went out for unknown reasons. Since they all occurred at the edge of the galaxy and were far away from us, we ignored this matter]

[However, when we realize it again, this phenomenon of star extinguishing has spread to the resource area and is gradually approaching the residential area]

[We tried to find out the cause, but found nothing. The only thing we can know is that what is swallowing this galaxy is a "darkness"]

["It" can basically be determined to be a spherical shape with a diameter of about 400,000 light-years, which accidentally surrounds our galaxy and shrinks toward the center of the sphere at a constant speed]

[And everything in the "dark" path will disappear without a trace, and no sign of its existence will be detected anymore...]

Li Wenyuan listened to everything in the "monitoring terminal" and felt a little incredible about what happened in "Elliptical Galaxy Beta".

This incident itself is indeed extremely incredible. At first, Li Wenyuan thought that it was some unknown mysterious creature that was devouring this galaxy, but now it seems that it is not that simple.

No conclusion can be drawn from the description of "darkness" alone, and the civilization survival organization that calls itself "Light Chasing" has not released supporting testing data.

It is very likely that they are indeed completely unable to analyze this mysterious and strange phenomenon, nor can they detect any data. All they can see is the increasingly approaching darkness.

He was thinking about the possibilities related to it in his mind, and at the same time, he continued to record the monitoring content word for word.

[At first we tried to fight it, but there was nothing we could do against it. The most powerful weapon we could develop could not stop its approach even for a second]

[So we had to choose to move inward, to immigrate to the center of the galaxy, give up all our past glory, and be driven away like a bereaved dog, just to survive for a while before being swallowed by darkness]

[In fact, we should have perished long ago. The darkness is approaching too fast. We only have time to send out a distress signal once and we will be destroyed in the darkness]

[However, perhaps it is a miracle that we accidentally discovered that black holes can slow down the approaching darkness. It takes much longer for the darkness to "swallow" the black hole than before.]

[So we once again ignited hope, we managed to destroy all the stars, turned them into black holes, and continuously sent out distress signals. This is our struggle to survive]

"Did you blow up all the stars..." Li Wenyuan now understood why the light of "elliptical galaxy Beta" could not be observed.

I used to think that interstellar dust blocked the light, but now it seems that either the darkness has the function of blocking the spread of light, or it is because all luminous celestial bodies have been converted into non-luminous celestial bodies, or both are possible.

[…However, we have been wandering on the edge of life and death for too long. The universe is empty after all. Even if we are sure that there is indeed life in several galaxies, or even high-level civilizations, we have not received any response]

[Maybe it’s because of trouble, maybe because of inability, maybe because of indifference, but we understand them. After all, who is willing to waste time and effort to help a group of strangers? 】

[We can only fight alone and gradually deteriorate in the long and hard life...]

[At first, the food under unified management disappeared, and then gradually developed into energy blocks, minerals, alloys, and even... there were not many spaceships]

[We also understand the reasons for this situation. We cannot bear to pursue those partners who have shared weal and woe, but after accidentally bumping into the scene where they made a mistake, they panicked and chose to open fire...]

[The ideals we once had were finally shattered in the endless struggle of life and death. We began to compete with each other for less and less resources, fighting because of hatred, and fighting for the land of survival... just like when we first started]

[Countless partners who have been together for tens of thousands of years have been killed by our own hands, but we carry their share and continue to move forward with difficulty]

[From the initial 460 civilizations, to 230, 115, 57... we are like experiencing a battle royale of civilizations. As darkness approaches, civilizations are constantly being eliminated. The remaining civilizations

They are becoming more and more cold-blooded, and everyone is fighting for survival]

[Only the winner will have the opportunity to occupy the galaxy closest to the center, and be the last to face destruction there... Since destruction is unavoidable, what is the purpose of our fighting...? 】

The broadcast from the galaxy was intermittent, and it seemed that the callers were unable to maintain a more stable signal state because of the desolation in their memories.

It is said to be a distress signal, but from the content point of view, it is more like the last words of this "Light-Chasing" civilization survival organization.

Such a world sounds cruel. Just as the rescuers said, they are experiencing a cosmic battle royale among civilizations. Even former friends have to take up weapons to fight with each other, just to fight for a longer time.

Breathing time.

However, Li Wenyuan had a guess because of their "Universe Battle Royale" theory.

So, he adjusted the frequency of the "Pilot Beacon" to be consistent with the "distress signal", and after determining the range to the "Elliptical Galaxy Beta" they called the "cradle", he slowly sent out a series of responses.

…………

At this time, the leader of the "Light Chaser" of the black hole galaxy somewhere far away in the "Elliptical Galaxy Beta" is sadly broadcasting their historical experiences to the outside world one after another.

He no longer expects civilization to save them, he only hopes to leave a little record of his own civilization's existence.

However, at this moment, he received a series of signals from an extremely distant source, not even within their galaxy.

The contents of the signal are:

[I have basically understood your situation, and now I want to know...do you have a special planet called an "observation terminal"? 】

The leader of "Chasing the Light" was stunned for a moment, and then he was overwhelmed by the huge surprise and began to speak incoherently.

"I, we, you are, what are you..."

He subconsciously clutched the life-saving straw in his desperate situation without thinking about what was behind it.

True to his leadership qualities, he quickly calmed down and responded accurately with the same signal:

"After traversing the historical databases of ours and... 229 civilizations, no identical or similar information remains were found."

"No..." The unexpected answer stunned Li Wenyuan for a moment, but he soon realized something and asked again:

[So... have you checked the galaxy in the center of the galaxy? 】
Chapter completed!
