The Faster-than-Light Spaceship left Planet 6, bound for the agreed coordinates ten light-years away.
Alien Civilization No. 1 kept transmitting its message, and the base received it on schedule every day.
The contents never changed, and the Observers spreading outward informed Luo Qi of their findings.

These Luo Qi Replicas resided in the Computing Center, existed within Observers, commanded Fourth-Generation Warships... and more.

On Planet 6's surface in the conventional universe, more than a thousand Fourth-Generation Warships stood ready in the darkness.
Tens of thousands of controllable nuclear fusion power stations operated, sustaining every technological creation.
Over a million Research Centers were developing technological applications, with still more under construction.

Then for Luo Qi, it was to keep unlocking the technology tree and become a Hunter.
Not to be treated as prey by other civilizations, like the humans of Water Blue Star.
