Making a Move
After rolling around on the surface of the Black Hole, Su Luo became serious.
At least now, he's sitting at the stone table, leaving the work of collecting technology entirely to his Subconscious, while he himself is constantly gathering information from various channels, preparing to make his move.
The body hadn't fully recovered, and although the soul had coalesced again, its edges were still rough. But none of that mattered anymore. What mattered was how many pieces remained on the chessboard, and whose hand was moving them.
"Is this [name] so cautious? Not planning on using any underhanded tactics? Or is there really nothing else?"
Su Luo is using the [Transmigrator Project], which centers on Dreamscape, to learn about the situation from the middle and upper levels of various civilizations.
Of those seeds that were sown, some have already established themselves at the core of power in the alien civilization, some are still quietly accumulating, and some have already been uprooted. But overall, the Dreamscape Network is still there, and information continues to flow after it was activated.
In a sense, the fact that Tracing Light was able to reap so many benefits immediately after the Great Expedition and establish an alliance so quickly is inseparable from the efforts of many Crossing who had already risen to the middle and upper levels of various civilizations.
"There's a problem. That [Silent]... doesn't seem to have seen the full picture of the [Transmigrator Project] in the Future. It seems his time-related Talent doesn't focus much on the length of the 'Future'?"
Su Luo hesitated for a moment, feeling that [Jian] was very focused on short-term gains when playing chess, prioritizing pieces over strategic advantage.
They banned almost all the high-powered units in the entire galaxy in one go, leaving none for themselves.
Lacking confidence in mastering highly powerful units, he simply dragged down all civilizations, clinging to the immediate, definite results.
At least during the Great Expedition and the period before that, this was the opponent's strategy.
I've heard more or less about Survivors with time-based Talents, and they're divided into many types.
Some may be able to see the very distant Future, but they bring back little information, and find it difficult to share it with others.
Some offer a more short-term perspective on the Future, with significantly greater freedom...
Of course, besides Prophecy time-related Talents, there may be other Talents similar to advance prediction, time reversal, and time stop. The [Absolute First Strike] talent we encountered in the previous invitation event was one of them.
Su Luo, who had already opened the sealed box, looked at the documents thoughtfully.
The Abyssal Depth Civilization, the leading destructive civilization, originally numbered nine, but was destroyed for various reasons, leaving only four remaining.
The civilization of [Jian] is easy to locate; the civilizations of those previously identified as having Crossing can be investigated based on the information.
His civilization, called the [Silent Civilization], has always kept a low profile, but recently it has shown great affinity towards the Tracing Light, subtly indicating a tendency to break away from the Destruction-based Civilization Alliance.
The Abyssal Depth Civilization Vital Energy after the previous war and abandoned its Civilization Development Site, beginning to wander. The Silent Civilization's behavior seems quite reasonable, and some other civilizations are doing the same thing.
After a moment's thought, Su Luo did not tell this information to the current leadership of Tracing Light, nor did she tell them that she was still there.
Fortunately, Su Luo hasn't spoken to them over the years, demonstrating strong autonomy. Their current development isn't much different from before, except they no Mu Ri purchase advanced technology for their panels.
The Transmigrator Project involved Su Luo approaching the current dean of the Frontier Academy of Sciences, having him take a few years' nap, forcibly taking control of his body, and then announcing a breakthrough in Dreamscape technology to restart the Transmigrator Project.
The Mu Ri is still asleep. Although the idea of Humanity Above All has always existed, there's always a fear of unforeseen circumstances.
The reason we weren't afraid before was because the higher-ups and stronger members of the Tracing Light had ideas or actions that contradicted "Humanity Above All," and Mu Ri we can truly sense that.
Therefore, the next step is to awaken the Mu Ri and then conceal them.
Enter the village quietly, don't fire.
First, ensure that there are no problems inside the Tracing Light, and the entire game will be very stable. In Mu Ri, we need to prevent [them] from [being] shrouded in Mist.
The next move is the Zerg's military strategy.
The Zerg themselves are not moving towards the areas where the Mist Diffusion, yet the Mist has already Diffusion to almost half of the galaxy.
The living space for the Zerg and other civilizations has been compressed, naturally leading to more intense friction.
"[The] Control over the Zerg seems to have decreased since the emergence of the Hive, and further decreased after the emergence of the Intelligent Zerg."
Su Luo remembered that during the previous great battle, the Zerg's enormous, moon-like hives did not appear. If they had, Tracing Light's army would not have had such an easy time.
This is good news.
"Then let's try to contact and cooperate with those Zerg have awakened intelligence, at least to alleviate the pressure on Tracing Light facing the Zerg swarm attack."
Apart from these two steps, Su Luo's [Transmigrator Project] has been operating continuously, which seems sufficient.
But there's no such thing as too much high-end combat power and manpower, so Su Luo decided to make another move.
Su Luo looked at the Godhead of the Lord of the Undead in her hand. The consciousness of the Observer had been extracted and preserved on it.
"Let's change its appearance and presentation, and mass-produce more troops again. The entire galaxy still has a large reserve of Undead."
Holding the Godhead in her hand, Su Luo pondered for a long time but couldn't find a suitable candidate.
The Observer is gone, the Iron Guard and the Machine Fortress are unusable, Xiao Luo is out of the question, and the Soul Servants aren't much better...
After a while, Su Luo turned her gaze to her Dreamscape.
Among the Heavenly Stars, Blood Moon hangs high in the sky.
Two hundred years into the Tracing Light Era, the galactic landscape was shaken, leaving only twenty-one civilizations.
But none of the remaining civilizations were benevolent; almost all of them were originally regional overlords or leaders of civilization alliances.
Those small civilizations that survived the early wars were either swallowed up or slowly disappeared in the cracks. Those who made it to the end all had their own strengths.
Among these civilizations, Tracing Light always had one of the smallest populations because Tracing Light did not absorb the populations of civilizations that had perished, thus preserving the originality of its civilizations.
Among them, nineteen civilizations formed Pre-Civilization Alliance, which encompassed scientific research, military affairs, politics, economics, and diplomacy, and maintained very close ties.
This alliance stipulates everything from technology sharing to military cooperation. In name, all members are equal, but in reality, everyone knows which one has the most say right now.
As for Tracing Light, as the leader of this alliance, it has been almost ten years and its position is relatively stable. With a population of over 500 million, it has the energy to embark on a path of comprehensive development.
Tracing Light is trying to learn from the extraordinary systems in the galaxy. In terms of extraordinary powers, citizens are no longer limited to the Mana Side, but have more choices, and even directly send highly Talent individuals to corresponding civilizations for further study.
