Gao Gong had initially thought that this trip would merely be a "filler episode," where he would take a look at the so-called "truth of the system."
But he had not expected even a filler episode to hold surprises.
A "megastructure" and a "relic."
Although both were just pie in the sky and impossible to enjoy in the short term,
even looking at them was tantalizing. Once he left this star system in the future and ventured into the universe to establish his own super-fusion civilization,
wouldn't he be able to find these two things by following the clues?
Moreover, judging by appearances, these two treasures had already existed for quite some time. Since they had survived for so long, remaining "unclaimed" for a while longer would probably be fine.
In his previous life, Gao Gong had heard a certain "secret." After ascending, some ascended civilizations would use "ascension technology" to seal away information about the "universe's three great treasures" (megastructures, relics, and wonders). That way, there would be no clichéd, hackneyed plot in which an ordinary species obtained a cosmic relic and defied fate.
Those capable of obtaining the universe's three great treasures would inevitably be advanced civilizations capable of matching them.
Although many absurd "secrets" circulated within the Civilization Council, this particular "secret" did not seem to be false.

He believed there were definitely plenty of ascended beings who shared his "ideals."
Therefore, if one wanted to obtain the "universe's three great treasures" purely through luck, the first thing one had to face would be the information locks of hundreds or even thousands of ascended civilizations.
Even if a
