This news is important because it relates to the Perseus Commonwealth. Although we still don't know the characteristics or name of the civilization that destroyed the Solar System, nor do we know where that civilization is, we at least have a relatively clear clue.

It is believed that as long as Human Civilization continues to follow this clue, it will eventually find the culprit that destroyed the Solar System.

There's a saying, "An eye for an eye only leads to another." Others ask, "What's the point of revenge?" Indeed, on the surface, revenge seems meaningless, and it will only endanger current Human Civilization, causing even more people to die in future wars.

But is that really the case? Is revenge truly meaningless? Where did Human Civilization come from? It was reborn from the ashes of destruction. All our heritage is a legacy of the Earth Era, inheriting the will of our ancestors.

Not everyone is a saint, and high-ranking leaders are even less so.

That stellar-destroying attack, which crushed stars like ants, annihilated humanity's entire home, leaving not even a trace of Earth. With such a deep-seated hatred, how could we not find the culprit and exact revenge? Based on the intelligence we have, the other party may be a defected Level 5 Civilization, or it may be the Perseus Commonwealth, a top and powerful organization in the Milky Way Galaxy, while humanity is currently only a mere Type Level 3 Civilization.

But humanity will not back down. As long as we have the will to endure hardship and bide our time, we believe that we will eventually be qualified to stand before that civilization and ask why, or even kill the traitor.

Perhaps when they destroyed the Solar System, they didn't discover the existence of humans, or even bothered to look at them or explore them. Otherwise, given the value of Life Planet, it's unlikely that it would have been destroyed so hastily.

Therefore, it is highly likely that it was an unintentional act, a casual action during a war between two civilizations.

But regardless, humanity's home planet was destroyed by them. Moreover, when the New Government was established, its slogan was revenge—to find the murderers and exact revenge. Therefore, humanity's aspirations will not be fulfilled until the culprits are found.

The Dog-Headed People Commander certainly didn't know these things, nor did he know the history of the destruction of the human homeworld, but this was a mission given to him by the humans, so after receiving this news, he felt that the trip was worthwhile.

Of course, from the perspective of the Interstellar Transaction Market, this deal is practically free. Exchanging a piece of information for so many Biosphere Resources is definitely a profit.

It's important to understand that research on Life Elixir and Life Science takes these Biosphere Resources as its research object. They may very well be able to develop other Life Elixir from these biological resources, and perhaps some technologies related to biological evolution.

All Carbon-based life require these technologies to enhance themselves and compensate for the various deficiencies in their natural evolution. Under the most stable carbon-based chain in the entire universe, Carbon-based life forms would inevitably outnumber other life forms; therefore, Life Elixir based on the Carbon-Based Lifeforms are highly sought after by various civilizations.

Of course, other life forms must also exist, such as the Silicon-Based Collective that humans have heard of, which is composed of a group of silicon-based civilizations.

However, we haven't encountered any. Since humanity set foot on space, the Carbon-based life. Oh, except for the Silver Mist Consciousness and Artificial Intelligence Consciousness.

As for what life forms like the Awakeners are like, humanity has no idea.

That said, after obtaining clues about the destruction of the Solar System and the Triple Star System, the Dog-Headed People readily handed over all their biological resources to the Interstellar Transaction Market as requested.

As for exchanging his 500,000 Sentient Life forms for a 5,000-year-old Life Elixir, the Dog-Headed People Commander discussed it with the other Dog-Headed People and decided to postpone it for now. After all, he had already completed a mission, and the purchase of the Life Elixir could be entrusted to the Kuntai People Fleet, which had more resources.

The reason for this decision is that recently, the Dog-Headed People have noticed that there doesn't seem to be any very strong materials technology for sale in this trading market.

Therefore, they believed that the No. 1 Alloy Material technology carried by the Kuntai People should fetch a good price, and it should be no problem to exchange it for Life Elixir with a five-thousand-year effect.

Based on this understanding, they decided to postpone the transaction.

In any case, if the Kuntai People fail to complete the trade, their own fleet can return to buy it. Although this will take some time, it is the least costly approach.

Compared to Alloy No. 1 technology, which is clearly on the list of technologies that humans can sell, Sentient Life is indeed more valuable.

So the Dog-Headed People told the Interstellar Transaction Market about their decision.

"Dear guests, I believe this Life Elixir is very important to you, and we also greatly need some of your Sentient Life. Rest assured, our trading market has more than one type of Sentient Life, and we provide them with their own living environments, so they will live well."

And it's very safe, because we have a Level 5 Civilization behind us, and in this trading market, we also have some creations from Level 4 Civilization; they'll be even happier than they are with you."

Upon hearing this, the Dog-Headed People Commander immediately sensed that something was amiss.

The Interstellar Transaction Market seems to have become less friendly. They seem determined to acquire the intelligent individuals of the Dog-Headed People, and have even used the claim that there are Level 4 Civilization creations in the trading market, which is clearly a threat.

The Dog-Headed People were cultivated by humans from primitive society. They may not be comprehensive in their knowledge, but as Sentient Life, and having been selected to be competent Commander, their intelligence is certainly not lacking.

Therefore, after pondering for a while, the Dog-Headed People Commander replied, "I'm sorry, we do indeed desperately need this Life Elixir, and we are willing to exchange it for Sentient Life forms. However, 500,000 is simply too many. We need to return and report to our civilization's leader before making a final decision."

However, our main civilization is far too far from this fleet; our Electromagnetic Wave power amplifiers cannot communicate at such a vast scale, and we believe that this broadcast-based communication method is not entirely effective.

After a pause, the Dog-Headed People Commander told another lie, saying, "More importantly, our fleet is basically composed of combat-oriented crew members. Our life forms may be different from other life forms. Our warriors can only operate warships. They are completely incapable of performing other tasks. Unless you exchange them and let them operate warships as well, it would be worse than killing them. Therefore, we think it would be better to wait until we return to our Civilization Main Body and then transport a batch of Sentient Life forms that are still in the formative stage to come and trade."
