Only 84 civilizations were still continuing onward with the Galactic and Abyss Great Voyage Organizations. Of them, 34 belonged to the Galactic Great Voyage Organization and 50 to the Abyss Great Voyage Organization.
The Abyss Great Voyage Organization had more civilizations than the Galactic Great Voyage Organization to begin with. Although more of them had stayed, more of them had also left.
Fortunately, the civilizations in the Galactic Great Voyage Organization that had chosen to stop and begin research were all later newcomers. The Seven Characteristic Technology Civilizations kept advancing in tacit silence, and the civilizations that had obtained the Pudolad Civilization's technology also remained within the organization.
Many civilizations had been impatient to begin research, but there were still quite a few that chose to continue following them.
The three Great Voyage Organizations had a total of 515 civilizations. By now, only 84 civilizations were still following the main group onward. In truth, they had grown somewhat lost as well. They were also afraid that the civilizations that had begun research first would become Cosmic Civilizations ahead of them, so for a very long time afterward, they kept putting pressure on the Great Voyage Organization's Supreme Council.
Unfortunately, the Supreme Council had only one answer: if you wanted to begin research, then begin it yourselves. So many civilizations had left anyway; one more of you would not be too many, and one fewer would not be missed. If you trusted us, keep following. If you did not, stop on your own.
The Supreme Council here referred to the Galactic Great Voyage Organization's Supreme Council, a meeting that only the Seven Characteristic Technology Civilizations, Human Civilization, Divine Matrix Civilization, Awakener Civilization, Falcon Civilization, Silver Heart Civilization, Daya Civilization, Feather Civilization, and the Starry Sky Defenders were qualified to participate in.
