Before finding out the correct answer, Alvin considered many possibilities.

But what no one expected was this enormous ring-shaped structure, five square kilometers in diameter, that suddenly invaded the Solar System.

It's actually from another work by the same author, the top civilization from "The Devourer"!

But at that very moment, Alvin broke out in a cold sweat and suddenly felt a sense of relief.

How should I put it?

We can only be thankful that it wasn't the "Singer Civilization" or the "Zeroer Civilization" that arrived.

Otherwise, let alone a mere Rogue Trader like him, even if he tied all five great Evil God of the Warp to a single warship, he would probably be crushed by them with a single finger.

Calling them ants is an exaggeration.

These two are truly God-level Civilization. Judging from their performance alone, they are far beyond what is expected. Alvin simply cannot imagine how terrifying a civilization that can "reset" the entire universe must be.

You seem very nervous?

When humans are stressed, their sweat glands secrete special pheromones, their heart rate increases, their pupils dilate, and their blood flow accelerates, all of which naturally cannot be hidden from MOSS's eyes.

"Nervous?" Alvin slowly exhaled, calming his inexplicable anxiety. His eyes held a complex expression. "You should be grateful, not just me, but all of you—you should all feel fortunate."

MOSS did not understand the meaning of this sentence.

But Alvin, once a die-hard fan, knew very well just how terrifying—or romantic—the many worlds created by this "electrician" master.

"First, inform the United Human Government of this news, then strengthen satellite reconnaissance and try to capture as much information as possible about the other side." After saying this in one breath, he paced back and forth in the room, his brows furrowed, as if he were trapped in some kind of predicament.

"Are you worried that this suddenly appearing predatory alien civilization will pose a threat to humanity?"

Based on his own thoughts and the current situation, MOSS made a reasonable prediction. "Considering that the enemy can independently build giant warships with a diameter of 50,000 kilometers and travel across the universe, if a conflict breaks out with them, the human side's chance of winning is less than one percent."

"What are you trying to say?" After listening, Alvin turned to look at MOSS, waiting for him to continue.

"Master, I'm merely making a reasonable analysis based on the current situation." MOSS's eyes flashed red as he mechanically replied, "Given humanity's current overall technological level, even with you as an unknown factor, I cannot calculate our chances of victory. Besides, we have absolutely no understanding of the Devourer Civilization."

"You don't understand, but I do!"

Alvin glanced at it, then slowly said, "The Devourer Civilization originated from the dinosaurs that lived on Earth 65 million years ago. They later left for space, becoming an Imperium that lived by plundering resources and devouring planets."

"That ring-shaped warship, with a diameter of 50,000 kilometers, once it discovers a target planet, will envelop it inside, devouring all the planet's resources in a Dyson Sphere -like manner. At the same time, it will raise the life on that planet inside the warship, periodically breeding them, just like humans raise chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep."

"You mean—the Devourers will raise humans like 'beasts'?" Even the artificial intelligence MOSS felt a strange fear of this race.

Is it truly a case of highly intelligent life being kept and preyed upon like livestock?

It is understandable that higher intelligent life forms slaughter and enslave lower intelligent life forms, but it is unimaginable that they would be treated like livestock!

"Ha, being willing to be livestock isn't without its advantages." His tone seemed calm, but contained a hint of anger. "As long as you obediently serve as livestock for the devourers, you can not only live to sixty, but also fully enjoy a life of pleasure, without having to work or use your brain. Isn't that good?"

Alvin recalled the original text, where many people, under the control of the Devourers, eventually gave up resistance and succumbed to Corruption.

I'm willing to become a beast!

MOSS remained silent for a long time before slowly saying, "You're right. With such a comfortable life, many people would indeed be willing to become livestock."

"That's not all."

Alvin chuckled and then began to introduce the weapons of the Devourer Civilization.

Planetary-level annihilation weapons capable of manipulating gravity, such as the Moon Catapult, would use the Luna as a gravitational accelerator to crash into the Earth.

In addition, Ecological Decomposition Beam, a wavelength-tunable Gamma Ray Array that can decompose 90% of the organic matter on the earth's surface into absorbable nutrient solution within 60 seconds.

There is also the Quantum Resonance Barrier, which locks particle vibrations through Strong Interaction Force, rendering all material weapons ineffective, including atomic bombs and antimatter weapons.

In addition to the above, the Devourer Civilization also possesses a "Civilization Memory Devourer," which uses neutrino oscillations to rewrite biological neural networks, achieving an effect similar to deep hypnosis.

But what's even more terrifying is that the Devourer Civilization's "Time Amber Cage" can seal enemies into a time bubble where the speed of light is reduced in a localized area, similar to a large Stasis Field. However, those inside can feel the passage of time.

The greatest difference between the inside and outside is that one hour is equivalent to a thousand years in a cage, enough to drive a mentally fragile person to the brink of self-collapse!

The gap is too large. No matter how MOSS analyzes it, even with the addition of Alvin, this unknown variable, there is not a single possibility of victory!

"Master, I believe the best solution right now is to immediately build the 'Noah's Ark,' carry a small number of outstanding humans and their Gene Seed, and escape Earth."

MOSS stated its assessment. "The enemy's target is Earth and the majority of humanity, so it is highly likely..."

We won't waste extra energy on this part. We can use Earth and most of humanity as pawns to delay them. This is the only chance humanity has, according to my calculations.

It must be said that this seemingly ruthless plan would indeed be the optimal solution if Alvin were not available, since the foundation of Planetary Engine already exists and humanity could achieve it very soon.

Besides, it would take time for the dinosaur civilization to devour a planet, so they might not necessarily chase after the escaped human seeds.

But—that is, Alvin isn't there.

"Your proposed plan is excellent, and your analysis is very reasonable."

Alvin slightly raised his eyelids and looked at MOSS: "With humanity's current strength, even with my help, it will be difficult to defeat the 'Devourer' civilization, but they—are not what worries me the most."

"I don't understand what you mean, Master." MOSS's meticulous logical thinking stalled, "As you said, the Devourer Civilization's cosmic level has completely crushed human civilization, but you don't consider them the most terrifying enemy, which means—you suspect that there are even more powerful civilizations?"

Alvin glanced at it, then nodded heavily and slowly, his expression serious. "Yes."

This was something he had just thought of: in the worldview of the Devourer Civilization, there was also a hidden God-level Civilization "Li Bai"!

These two share the same worldview!

If we were to actually encounter one, even praying to the Emperor Lord for protection would likely be futile, unless the Yellow Skin were to descend from its Golden Throne and sacrifice itself to become a god, perhaps then it would have no chance of fighting back.

Liu Cixin's universe is terrifying!
