Many advanced civilizations had a large number of lower-level servant civilizations under them.
This was necessary for the development of the technology tree. After all, a complete technology tree needed not only a trunk, but also branches, twigs, and leaves.
But sending civilization individuals—simply put, minors—among lower-level civilizations to attend an "interstellar kindergarten" was certainly a rather flamboyant operation.
At least, Gao Gong had never heard of it.
But the universe was vast, and civilizations were as numerous as the stars. There were plenty of civilizations Gao Gong had never heard of, so this one was hardly surprising.
Gao Gong finally understood why, among the nearby "black markets," this "mobile black market" was the most mysterious. After all these years, no one had ever learned its exact location.
That "exact location" was probably inside some "teaching building" belonging to an advanced civilization. It would be strange if anyone could find it.
Although the other party was a "minor," Gao Gong did not underestimate them.
No matter how "young" they were, they were still juvenile forms at level 150, 180, or 210.
Their true body might very well be a supercomputer a hundred times larger than Cyberspace.
The other party did not completely trust Gao Gong, either. Instead, they tentatively asked about some "common knowledge of the council" that only members of advanced civilizations could know.
As it happened, Gao Gong was an old hand in the council. In his previous life, he had once had nothing better to do and logged into the Civilization Council every day to watch a bunch of civilization representatives tear into each other. It had been great fun.
Thus, the two of them went from discussing the "illegal immigration of immortal species" to the rationality of "civilization-imposed limits on individual lifespans," and then to how
