In the void floated the corpses left behind by countless Amoeba organisms.
This was a graveyard, a graveyard left behind by the Amoeba organisms. Before ascending into Successors, no Collector could resist the Great Destruction's forged command.
In a single night, living beings died in droves—not merely their consciousnesses, but every cell in their bodies.
Their deaths had formed this space graveyard.
However, this Amoeba graveyard was not filled entirely with corpses that represented death. Living beings still existed within this region.
Centered around a planet, spacecraft weaved through the corpses of Amoeba organisms, transporting the various material resources they had left behind onto the planet.
The planet's surface was covered in machinery. A ring-shaped structure rotated in sync with the planet itself, providing a spaceport for the ships constantly passing through.
This was the Empire's homeworld—Serin.
After the Great Destruction struck, the Empire had been brought into faster-than-light travel alongside the Amoebas as a research resource, escaping the Great Destruction's supernova assault.
They had been carried through one star system after another by the Collector swarm, witnessing supernova explosions time and again. Later, the entire Collector swarm perished because of the Great Destruction's forged command.
The Empire could now finally be said to have regained its freedom.
"Supreme Leader."
A Chief Scientist entered the room. Before he could speak, the Supreme Leader questioned him first.
"How is the repair progress? How much is left?"
"The main issue lies in the active components. Some Amoeba technologies use living technology. Those parts serve a 'control' function in Amoeba technology, similar to our computers and switch valves."
The Chief Scientist was referring to the faster-than-light structure on Serin, built by the Collectors.
This faster-than-light structure had likewise been affected by the Great Destruction's forged command. Some internal components had been damaged, preventing
