A small engineering vessel departed from Earth Two and headed towards a region a thousand light-years away from the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization. Eight years later, the engineering vessel reached its designated target, located a not-so-obvious star, and plunged into the star's scorching flames, enduring the scorching heat of tens of thousands of degrees.
However, the engineering ship can completely ignore this temperature; even at temperatures of several million degrees, the Reversed State Armor can withstand it with ease.
Hundreds of astronomical units away from the engineering ship, ten billion Reaper and ten billion Stinger Kinetic Impact Ship emerged in a desolate area. There were no stars within tens of light-years around this place, and the Reaper were like ghosts, attracting no attention.
The miniature spacecraft flew out of the engineering ship. Thanks to technological innovation, the current miniature spacecraft is only the size of a beetle, but its performance has not been reduced at all. On the contrary, due to the reduction in size, its mass is only a dozen grams, and it can work continuously for more than ten years when powered by pure energy.
These spaceships circled the stars, stealthily heading towards the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization from several directions. Defending against objects of this size in the vast expanse of space is impossible, no matter how advanced the technology. Even Great Star Region Civilization can only detect wars between civilizations when there are large-scale spatial fluctuations.
It would be even more impossible for the Xuan Star Civilization to detect the micro-spaceships. Not only would the Xuan Star Civilization be unable to detect them, but humanity itself would also be unable to detect an intrusion of this magnitude.
Once the engineering vessel reached the star, it immediately began extracting entangled particles, emitting one of the extracted pairs along with the star's light.
The small engineering vessel is only 5 kilometers long, but it is filled with antimatter brought from the base. This antimatter is now annihilating with matter like flowing water, and the resulting entangled photons are immediately extracted and separated. Every second, trillions of photons converge into the starlight. Of these countless photons, only one will have an effect.
However, these photons will not be wasted. The computer has recorded the details of each photon and simulated the photon path based on the galaxy conditions. These will become the first part of the Seeding Plan.
These photons will arrive in the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization a thousand years later. As photons continuously enter, the early photons will pass through the territory, but the later photons will replenish it, just like a river flowing through the Xuan Star Civilization, ensuring that there are always human photons in the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization.
In addition to sending photons into the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization, the engineering ship also sent out countless photons in other directions. If four-dimensional travel becomes possible in the future, these photons will be the navigators.
The fleet still has a long way to go to build a traceable four-dimensional shuttle channel. The best method is to use a sub-light-speed spaceship to place a pair of photons at two points in a far-away region. In this way, if you enter from one photon, you can exit from the other photon.
However, the galaxy is so vast that even after so many years of exploration, the fleet has only examined a few thousand stars. It's not that they lack the energy, but rather that they don't have enough time. The galaxy is simply too large; even with a speed of 4000 times the speed of light, it would be virtually impossible for the fleet to examine every single star.
Unless all warships operate independently regardless of cost, it would be impossible to reach every star in the galaxy in a short time. However, no civilization dares to do this, not even the Great Star Region Civilization. Who knows if a more advanced civilization is hiding in this galaxy?
The six civilizations are already working hard to build warships. In order not to expose humanity, these warships do not contain much human technology. They are mainly based on the technologies of the six civilizations. In addition to the fleet, the focus is on the extraction of photons and the production of antimatter. Hu Yu also ordered the fleet to extract virtual particles at all costs.
Only the Heavenly Peak Civilization knows about virtual particles. The territory of the Xuan Star Civilization is more than 20,000 light-years away from the territory of the Yuanwangzhe Far Watcher Civilization, so it should not be within the area of responsibility of the Heavenly Peak Civilization. There should be no problem using it there. Moreover, the galaxy is so vast that many technologies are universal, such as antimatter, which is used by almost every civilization.
A thousand years passed quickly, and the miniature spaceship had long since entered the territory of the Xuan Star Civilization. To be on the safe side, the miniature spaceship did not perform warp maneuvers after entering the territory, but instead drifted slowly in the air like an ordinary meteorite.
After 20,000 years of development, the Xuan Star Civilization has not only restored its original appearance but has also surpassed it, with its number of warships reaching 30 billion, an extremely large number. The Xuan Star Civilization's production speed is even faster than that of humans.
12 billion Star System Level warships have already assembled 1,500 light-years away from the Xuan Star Civilization. With the help of humans, these warships have reached a speed of 2,000 times the speed of light. Stars are being transported by these warships and concentrated in a very small area. In just a few years, thousands of stars have been concentrated in this space with a diameter of less than 20 astronomical units.
This place seemed to have transformed into a world of flames. The intense heat made the entire world scorching, and even space itself appeared to be ablaze. From a distance, it was impossible to spot any stars, as all the stars were being pulled apart by the gravitational pull of the surrounding stars, scattering matter outwards.
These stars are like scrambled eggs, with the entire sky filled with material ejected by them, and the tiny cores of the stars hidden within this burning matter.
Countless Star System-Level Civilization warships shuttled back and forth in the fiery world, preventing stars from colliding due to gravity. They were still a long way from the Xuan Star Civilization, and the miniature spaceships had not detected any signs of the Xuan Star Civilization's fleet movement. These Star System-Level Civilization warships were preparing to move the star a little further forward.
"Chief, Chief! A large number of stars have suddenly gathered 1,100 light-years away! And they are moving towards our civilization's territory." Within the Xuan Star Civilization's territory, Bi Cha reported to the Xuan Star chief.
"What?! Bi Cha! Send a fleet to investigate immediately, and then summon Feng Ye."
"Your Majesty, I have already dispatched 2 billion warships. Mr. Feng Ye has also received the news and is on his way."
"Have you figured out which civilization it is, and what they want to do?"
"Chief, our reconnaissance equipment only extends 1,000 light-years, and the density there is already very sparse. We haven't received any information yet, but a patrol fleet 800 light-years away has been diverted to investigate."
"Chief, Chief Scientist!" Feng Ye, the newly appointed chief scientist, rushed in.
" Feng Ye, you already know the news. What are your thoughts?"
"Chief, the situation may be dire. There are no advanced civilizations within a 2,000 light-year radius of us. These warships are at least Star System Level, and they clearly come from elsewhere. The target of these stars is very likely us."
