Cosmic nobles were not ascended civilizations. Only ascended civilizations possessed the technology for eternal life.
But to be honest, eternity did not mean immortality. At least, when Gao Gong had been stationed at the Civilization Council in his previous life, he had seen records of quite a few ascended civilizations being destroyed.
But for an intelligent life-form, under circumstances free of disasters and calamities, obtaining "eternal life" was already the greatest blessing imaginable.
But the technology of ascended civilizations would not be leaked.
Although cosmic nobles were extremely wealthy, if they wanted "eternal life," they could only resort to certain special methods.
For example, they could create a "megastructure" and then merge their consciousness with it, obtaining a lifespan measured in hundreds of millions of years.
That was another form of eternal life.
After all, even ascended civilizations found it difficult to destroy an existence like a "megastructure."
But from another perspective, the process of merging "consciousness" with a "megastructure" was also the moment when that cosmic noble was at their weakest.
Director Du probably didn't know this, but she decided to make trouble at this exact point in time. She must have discovered something.
Gao Gong frowned.
Or perhaps I should look at it from the opposite angle. With Director Du's mindset as an engineer, as long as the other party didn't cause trouble, she would most likely obediently move bricks at the construction site. What could this old bastard be planning to force Director Du into making trouble?
Although exposing the old bastard's secrets felt great.
But if the old geezer got the better of him, he would be completely screwed.
Gao Gong felt slightly uneasy.
He decided to risk contacting Du Zhaodi one more time.
