Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones-Chapter 338: Space Fluctuation Detection Network

Star Beast Disaster...

Tom recalled the Monster Birds he encountered in the Solar System, which could travel through space using their own power.

From this perspective, those Monster Birds were probably also a primitive stage of the Star Beast Disaster. Given enough time, they might even develop to a higher stage in the future.

"At that time, the Dark Energy-level Star Beast Disaster had already scattered in all directions, with a diffusion radius of several light-years.

For ordinary Space Civilizations, even the Red Star Civilization, there would likely be no solution to such a situation.

But the Destroyer Civilization is different. They activated a Heavenly Disaster of Destruction once, and in one fell swoop, they killed all the Dark Energy-level Star Beasts, totaling over 1 billion, within a radius of several light-years.

As for the other activation, we are not very clear about it. We currently have no relevant intelligence and do not know which civilization they were dealing with."

Tom nodded slightly.

"The war between the Destroyer Civilization and the Perseus Alliance is a rare strategic opportunity for our Red Star Alliance. Coincidentally, that Space-level Demonic Eye has been trying to infiltrate our Red Star Alliance for tens of thousands of years, attempting to assimilate and devour all the civilizations within our alliance, causing us many problems.

So the Red Star Civilization decided to take advantage of this rare strategic opportunity to launch a decisive battle against the Demonic Eye and resolve this trouble once and for all."

Tom was silent for a moment, then said, "I don’t quite understand.

You should also understand the principle that when lips are gone, teeth are cold. At this moment, why not support the Perseus Alliance and, ideally, combine the strength of both alliances to destroy the Destroyer?"

Vero sighed silently.

"In this universe, it’s good enough to just look out for yourself.

Even if two Space Civilizations could establish trust in a short period and jointly resist the Destroyer—in fact, this is impossible. If it could be done so easily, why would Space Civilizations need to form alliances and cultivate allies themselves?

Even if it could truly be done, would it necessarily be able to resist the Destroyer?

Probably not. Don’t forget, that’s a supernova explosion..."

Tom sighed softly.

He knew he had probably thought too simply.

An alliance between two Space Civilizations at the peak of the Milky Way... it’s not that simple. Even in Human Civilization’s history, when one country wanted to eliminate the other six, everyone knew that if the six countries united, the powerful country would fail to achieve its goal, but in the end, they just couldn’t unite.

In the biosphere, facing certain predators, if herbivores united, they could avoid being eaten, but in the end, they would only scatter.

What’s more, in the Milky Way at this moment, the Destroyer Civilization, which seems to have mastered the strategic weapon of "Heavenly Disaster of Destruction," has a combat power that is vastly superior to other Space Civilizations, so even if they united, it probably wouldn’t have much effect.

Instead of taking risks, it’s better to take advantage of this strategic window to eliminate the immediate threat, which is that Space-level Demonic Eye.

Tom felt a little worried.

Regardless of whether his own form of existence was that of a legitimate sentient civilization, at least in terms of self-perception, Tom believed he was.

He asked himself, he could probably be considered a benevolent civilization, after all, he would never actively threaten other existences unless they posed a threat to him.

And from the Cloud Civilization, it seemed that the Red Star Alliance was also a rare benevolent alliance.

In this vast and deep starry sky, the light of benevolence was so scarce. But now, it seemed that even such scarce benevolent light could be swallowed by darkness at any time.

Sigh...

Sighing silently in his heart, Tom continued to exchange information with Vero on other matters.

During this process, Tom constantly reminded himself not to ask too sensitive questions, so as not to put Vero in a difficult position.

Since the other party showed him goodwill, he should reciprocate.

Vero also tried his best to answer Tom’s questions. But there were still many questions for which he could not provide an answer.

There was no other way, the Cloud Civilization was only a Gravity Civilization.

After such an exchange, Tom gained a lot and learned much more about this vast and deep starry sky.

At this point, Tom brought up the question he was most concerned about at this stage.

"Do you and your civilization know any information about this civilization?"

Tom presented the relevant information about the Purple Moon Civilization to Vero.

"Let me check our database."

Vero operated for a moment, then shook his head: "No."

This result was also normal.

"Alright."

Tom nodded: "I have no more questions. Your Excellency Vero, thank you, my conversation with you has been very beneficial."

Vero pondered for a moment, then said, "Your Excellency Head of State, is the information about this Purple Moon Civilization very important to you and your civilization?" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

He did not ask why, only if it was important.

Tom nodded solemnly: "Very important. Our civilization has been traveling for a thousand years, tracking this civilization. Unfortunately, we still haven’t had any success until now."

Vero thought again, as if finally making up his mind: "Your Excellency Head of State, our civilization can use alliance points to exchange for an opportunity to query the ’Space Fluctuation Detection Network,’ which might have a chance to find the whereabouts of this Purple Moon Civilization.

But information transmission takes a certain amount of time, hmm, not too long, about 20 years or so.

During this time, our civilization’s home world will also dispatch a passenger fleet to pick up our scattered compatriots."

Tom pondered for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay. Thank you for your help to us.

Coincidentally, during this time, we plan to stop at a nearby solar system for a rest and some repairs."

After confirming this matter, Vero and his group returned to their fleet.

After some preparation, Vero and others came to Tom’s fleet again and, together with Tom, announced the news of finding the Cloud Civilization to the Cloud People.

Personnel from both sides embraced tightly amidst a celebratory atmosphere, each bursting into tears.

Countless Cloud People shed tears at that moment, both joyful at finally being able to return to their civilization and grateful for Tom’s shelter and care over the years.

The two fleets then simultaneously began to decelerate, eventually docking in a nearby ordinary solar system.

Here, Tom once again began large-scale industrial construction.

Previously, due to encountering the Silicon-Based Disaster, his fleet had suffered extremely heavy losses, so it was a good opportunity to make up for some of them during this time.

However, with the Cloud Civilization’s fleet present, Tom still concealed some things and did not reveal too much of his industrial strength. But even so, Tom’s industrial efficiency still drew exclamations from Vero and others.
