The Conqueror and the Dreadnought had all entered the interior of the Silver Planet. Hu Yu and the others also emerged from the Conqueror and began to tour this planet that had once been the ruler of the Milky Way.

Yan Xue refused to leave the Conqueror no matter what, so he directly granted Hu Yu control. Hu Yu had no choice but to let Yan Xue stay inside the Conqueror and walked out himself. However, as soon as Hu Yu stepped out of the Conqueror, Li Zhixiong grabbed Yan Xue and, no matter how much he struggled, he couldn't do anything and directly followed Hu Yu with Yan Xue.

The first thing that caught Hu Yu's eye was rows of warships that didn't look like warships, neatly arranged on this level. The entire planet's interior was divided into many levels, and this Hu Yu was where these warships were located. However, these warships did not look like complete warships; they seemed to be missing many things. Moreover, the size of these warships was also very limited, with a length of less than a thousand meters. They resembled irregularly shaped giant kitchen knives, completely unlike the size that a warship of a top-level civilization should have, and even less like warships.

There are over a billion such warships in this one layer alone. Hu Yu estimated that if each layer were filled with such warships, there might be around 5 trillion to 10 trillion warships inside the entire silver planet. Although the number is small, these warships have been to the Andromeda Galaxy and their strength should not be underestimated.

Next, Hu Yu saw a huge wall, or more accurately, the entire interior of the silver planet's outer shell. As Hu Yu Hu Yu, he saw that the walls inside the shell were densely covered with countless terrifying creatures. It seemed that this was what had frightened Yan Xue. Despite having experienced countless terrifying scenes, the creatures before him once again pushed Hu Yu's limits.

Although he knew these creatures were already dead, Hu Yu still broke out in a cold sweat. Li Zhixiong wasn't much better off; he had goosebumps all over his body, and his legs were trembling. Academician Qin Yin, standing to the side, was even more trembling, closing her eyes and hiding behind Hu Yu, not daring to open them again.

This creature was about 5 meters tall, with a cylindrical body covered in colorful scales. It had a large mouth revealing sharp fangs. It had no legs, but instead had six thick, soft limbs like pythons, covered with spikes more than an inch long. Each limb seemed to have a large mouth at its end. Don't doubt the consequences of being touched by one of these limbs.

Aside from its large mouth, the head was filled with other grotesque organs. What Hu Yu found strange was that the creature seemed to have two heads, because below the main head was another head-like structure, and apart from the large mouth, it was almost identical to the main head.

The sheer horror of this creature's structure surpasses that of insects. While insects are terrifying primarily due to their enormous size, this creature's terror stems from its bizarre structure.

" Rabbit, Rabbit, open your eyes! What were your ancestors doing with all these things?"

"I... I don't know, General Li, let's go back."

"What are you afraid of? They've been dead for billions of years. Are you worried they'll eat you? Don't worry, Brother Xiong will protect you."

" Yan Xue, you really shouldn't be afraid. These are your ancestors, your people," Hu Yu said to Yan Xue after a moment's thought.

"What?! Brother, how is this possible? How could my people be like this?"

"You've forgotten, haven't you told me not long ago that there are the remains of countless members of your clan here? These are them. The old patriarch once said that back then, in order to escape being hunted down, your Snow Tribe not only changed your personalities but also your appearance. I think only a powerful species like this could possibly rule the entire Milky Way."

"Are these really my ancestors, my people?"

"It's definitely them. Although they look ferocious, they are indeed your people."

Hearing Hu Yu's words, Yan Xue snapped out of his shock, and his emotions gradually shifted from fear to sadness. He jumped off Li Zhixiong's hands and slowly walked towards these former Snow Tribe creatures, gently touching them. In fact, Yan Xue had this suspicion long ago, but he dared not admit it.

Suddenly, light and shadow intertwined, and a Snow Tribe creature, accompanied by the light and shadow, writhed its strong, supple limbs and walked towards Yan Xue. This was an image record left behind by the Snow Tribe. At this moment, Yan Xue was no longer afraid; he stared intently at the image.

"My children, I am the second chieftain of the Snow Tribe. I sensed your sorrow, and that is why I have appeared," the light and shadow uttered in a hoarse voice.

"I left this message not because I wanted you to see it, but because if you do, it means you might be in trouble. As a marginal branch of the Snow Tribe, there's not much I can offer you. However, I hope you haven't encountered the Snow Tribe's mortal enemy, otherwise this technology won't be able to help you overcome your difficulties."

"I don't know how many billions of years have passed since this video was played, but our enemies still exist. As the losers, the Snow Tribe has lost the strength to contend for supremacy. I only hope that our Snow Tribe members can live peacefully. Therefore, under my leadership, all members of the clan underwent genetic modification."

"If you want to completely restore the Snow Tribe's thinking ability, you'll have to completely revert to my current state. We have two brains, one for killing and one for thinking. To be honest, I'm tired of this body. The newly modified clansmen are good; they're gentle and non-aggressive."

"The fact that you've reached this point means you've recovered some of your genes; otherwise, this planet wouldn't have been activated. There are 500 billion warships here; hopefully, they haven't been corrupted by the river of time."

"You can explore the other technological aspects yourselves, children. If it's safe, please bring our remains back to the Milky Way, but keep it a secret. Don't let our enemies know, or you will face annihilation. The civilizations that rebelled against us back then might still exist in the Milky Way."

"Remember our enemies, the Doomsday Civilization in the Milky Way, the Knight Civilization, the Deep Space Civilization in the Andromeda Galaxy, goodbye, goodbye!" The light and shadow slowly dissipated. In the eyes of this terrifying Snow Tribe, Hu Yu saw unwillingness, helplessness, and a trace of stubbornness.

"Elder Chief...!!!" Yan Xue called out as she watched the disappearing light and shadow.

The Doomsday Civilization and the Knight Civilization — Hu Yu had never heard of these two civilizations in the Milky Way. They were civilizations from billions of years ago. For the Snow Tribe to call them enemies, they must have been at least Galactic-Level Civilization. Perhaps they had left the Milky Way to explore the universe, or perhaps they had been wiped out by the Andromeda Civilization. Even if they were helping the Deep Space Civilization to besiege the Snow Tribe, it didn't mean they wouldn't become targets. It was even more likely that they were still hiding in the Milky Way.
