n“Captain, we’ve received a message from the shuttle!” “Tell me quickly!”

n“Big brother, run! Don’t worry about me, just run!”

nRight from the start, there’s a terrified scream from Miro, followed by an attachment that contains all the content of this communication.

n“Droplets…”

n“Photons…”

n“Two-way foil…”

n“Dimensional reduction strike!”

nWhen they finished reading the attachment, everyone was shocked.

n“How is this possible? A dimensional reduction strike, turning the entire three-dimensional universe into two dimensions, how could such a technology exist?!!”

n“Turning all matter into a flat surface, this is too terrifying…”

nSomeone jumped up anxiously, shouting, “Captain, we should leave quickly.

nWe can’t let Prince Miro sacrifice himself in vain…”

n“Yes, let’s leave quickly before the advanced civilization of the China Universe Alliance arrives…”

nSeeing that Moro wasn’t reacting and was still silent, more and more people came forward to persuade him.

n“Captain, this civilization is beyond our ability to resist. If we don’t leave quickly, we might get caught and jeopardize Planet Tai!”

n“Captain, give the order!”

nDespite all their pleas, Moro was contemplating Miro’s advice to run.

nDeath, he did not fear. Sacrificing himself for Planet Tai, for the Glen civilization, was an immense honor.

nBut Miro, he was his only brother, even though, his brother was a bit slow-witted.

n“Silence!”

nAs Moro spoke, the persuasive voices ceased. People were waiting for Moro’s command.

n“Recall all exploration ships. As soon as Milo’s shuttle arrives, we retreat!” “Captain, we can’t…”

nBefore they could continue to argue, Moro resolutely said, “I’ve made up my mind, no more persuading!”

nThe ship captains glanced at each other, finally leaving reluctantly.

nOn their way out, someone grumbled, “Right now, leaving through the wormhole is the right choice…”

n“Moro’s fleet, for his personal reasons, is putting the fleet in a disadvantageous position…”

n“Enough! Only Captain Moro knows the location of Planet Tai…”

n“With an external fleet, even if we go to the galaxy where the first civilization was destroyed, we can return…”

n“Disregarding the captain’s orders, it’s death if we return…”

nPlanet Tai knew that humans were combative, especially in the lonely universe where conflicts could easily arise.

nFrom the beginning, they cut off internal strife, giving the captain immense power.

nAlthough they were dissatisfied, they had no choice but to carry out the captain’s orders.

nBack in the control room, Moro was staring at a large screen filled with information about the Huaxia Universe Alliance. He seemed to be analyzing something.

nSomeone spoke up, “Captain, since this Huaxia Universe Alliance even accepted the indigenous civilizations of the NB-1250 galaxy, what about our Glen civilization…”

nMoro frowned, glanced back, and slowly said, “Did you forget the first axiom of Glen?”

n“Alliances don’t last. Even if they have level-4 civilizations, they will eventually perish…”

n“The Great Qin civilization is too arrogant, trying to unify the universe and daring to accept such late stage 1 civilizations…”

nAfter careful analysis, Moro believed that the technological level of this galaxy was probably late stage 1, and the reason they understood black hole technology was due to the Huaxia Cosmic Alliance.

n“Indeed, such a level-1 civilization is not only easy to expose, but it also brings them fatal danger…”

nAnother person agreed, “Moreover, if any civilization within the alliance, of the same level or slightly inferior, has ulterior motives, this chain of suspicion would never end…”

nOver the years, the Glen civilization had observed several examples of civilizations being destroyed, including alliances composed of multiple civilizations.

nWith the small talk over, someone reported, “Captain, all ships exploring nearby planets and asteroids have been recalled…”

n“At present, only three ships are still out there…”

n“One is the shuttle piloted by young master Miro…”

n“One is scout ship number 8, sent to the fifth planet to investigate the Pangu

ncivilization. It has entered the fifth planet and lost contact…”

n“The last is scout ship number 9, sent to chase the ship leaving the galaxy when we first arrived. It’s still about 200 million kilometers away. If we order it to return now, it won’t be able to get back for a while…”

nMoro calculated. Losing two scout ships was acceptable. He nodded slightly and said, “All crews, be on guard. As soon as the shuttle returns, activate the wormhole and retreat immediately…”

n“Affirmative!”

nOne day later.

n“Captain, Scout Ship N0.9 has caught up with the ship leaving the galaxy and found information about this galaxy…”

nMoro was interested and asked about the details immediately.

n“According to the report from Scout Ship N0.9, the galaxy we are in is called the Solar System by the third planet…”

n“The mini-ship is named ‘Voyager 1’, sent by the intelligent life on ‘Earth’ of the third planet…”

n“It was launched in ‘Earth Year 1977′, which is about 52 Earth years ago…” “Voyager 1 carries a lot of information about Earth and the Solar System…” “They talk about their language, culture, races, technological level, etc…” Upon hearing this, Moro asked, “What is their technological level?” “According to the report from Scout Ship N0.9, the technology introduced on

nVoyager 1 in Earth Year 1977, is about level 0.61…”

n“That’s too low?!”

nAccording to the observation, the ships wandering around the blue star had the technological level of late stage 1 civilization.

n“It must be because they joined the Huaxia Universe Alliance and their technology was passively upgraded. Many were probably imported from the alliance…”

nUpon hearing this, Moro felt slightly relieved, “This Huaxia Universe Alliance doesn’t seem too dangerous…”

nThinking of this, he quickly ordered to deploy the gravitational wave detector to check the nearby galaxies.

n“The nearest galaxy to the Solar System is approximately 4.2 light years away…”

n“We haven’t detected any large-scale ship activity, or it could be that our gravitational wave detector technology isn’t advanced enough…” “What about the wormholes? How many are in the Solar System?”

n“Just one, right under us, and no signs of any traversal…”

nAs he pondered, a subordinate suddenly said, “Captain, there’s some content that I think you should see…”

n“What?!”

nMoro turned his head. On the screen, a sci-fi movie from the 1970s was playing.

n“Is this a record of a star war?”

n“No, these ships seem to violate the laws of the universe…”

nThe other captains around were also surprised, looking at the video, they felt a strong sense of discord.

nAfter about ten Earth hours and seven or eight videos, the confusion in everyone’s mind reached its peak.

n“Captain, Scout Ship N0.9 sent back a message, these videos are called science fiction movies by the Earth people. They are humans’ imagination of the future, fabricated using cameras, not scientific conjectures….”
