"General, I'm going back to the Secondary Universe first." Academician Zeng found Hu Yu.
"I'll go with you, Zhonghua. You keep an eye on things here. The fragments need to be handed over to other civilizations for joint research. I'd better make the trip myself."
"Okay, you can go without worry."
In the Secondary Universe, the only word to describe the scene at this moment is "busy." Countless civilized beings, robots, and machines are all busy in their respective bases. Hu Yu returned to the Star Ring Alliance's base. This time, Hu Yu deliberately gathered all the Star Ring Alliance's bases together and secretly ventured deeper into many of them.
Over the years, humanity and the Xuan Star Civilization have repaired as many as 20 alliance spaces. With these 20 spaces serving as energy transfer stations, the Star Ring Alliance can penetrate as far as 20,000 to 30,000 light-years. In reality, in order to ensure the timely output of the fleet, the alliance did not penetrate that far, but only went as far as about 5,000 light-years before stopping.
Hu Yu did this to ensure that there were no worries about the rear. At this moment, no one except Zu knew the location of the Alliance base. Hu Yu even wanted to avoid Zu, as Zu was still an uncertain factor. However, the Secondary Universe was Zu's domain, and there was nothing he didn't know here.
Several enormous boxes, each thousands of kilometers long, were carried out of the Conqueror by robots. A large group of human academicians Feng Ye scientists from the Xuan Star Civilization led by Feng Ye were waiting to receive them. Academician Zeng and Hu Yu also came out of the Conqueror. Hu Yu briefly inspected the base and found everything to be normal. Then he led the fleet to set off again, leaving Academician Zeng Feng Ye to lead a large number of scientists into the intense analysis work.
Hu Yu distributed the fragments to five Great Star Region Advanced Civilization, as well as some other Great Star Region Intermediate Civilization that Hu Yu considered to have high potential. After finishing everything, Hu Yu did not linger and led his small fleet to prepare to return to the battlefield.
As soon as Hu Yu left the Secondary Universe, he received a familiar frequency.
"Big brother, I'm here, where are you?"
"Hey kid, didn't I tell you to hide it properly? How come you're still so immature!"
"Brother, the Milky Way is not only your home, but also ours. Besides, I've learned a lot during this time, and now I can help out."
"Alright, let's talk about it in the Secondary Universe. Where are your current coordinates?"
"Big brother, I'm right at the entrance to the Secondary Universe. By the way, you can't see my fleet, just like I can't see yours, but I can find out about your fleet through other means."
"You're quite clever. Come with me."
Hu Yu deactivated the Conqueror's two-dimensional state to prevent Yan Xue from being unable to keep up with him in the Secondary Universe. The fleet then plunged back into the Secondary Universe, rapidly advancing towards the base.
In the base space, Yan Xue's fleet finally appeared. 500 billion ships, all of which Yan Xue brought. However, these fleets were no longer the same as the ones Hu Yu had seen before. They had undergone a lot of modifications and even looked somewhat like J-90 fighter jets.
The instant Yan Xue stepped out of the warship, in a distant corner of the Secondary Universe, a ball of light rapidly expanded and shrank, repeating this hundreds of times, before finally moving and rushing towards the base.
" Yan Xue, this is the supplementary technology tree we provided for you. It's not complete; your technology is too advanced, and we can only supplement a small part." Hu Yu had the Academy of Sciences send over the Snow Tribe's technology tree.
"Big brother, thank you. Actually, that light and shadow deceived you back then. It was a super intelligence that knew a lot of things. Although it still didn't have the technology of our Snow Tribe, under its guidance, the technology team led by Chen Xue has made rapid progress. Now, the initial stage of our Galaxy-Level technology tree has been fully completed."
"Not bad, you haven't let your elder brother down." Hu Yu said with a smile, patting Yan Xue's head.
Suddenly, a ball of light appeared in the base, right in front of Hu Yu and Yan Xue. Hu Yu wasn't surprised to see the ball of light, as Zu had appeared in the base more than once or twice, but Yan Xue was stunned.
"Mr. Zu, it's been a long time."
Hu Yu greeted him, but Zu did not respond. Moreover, Hu Yu noticed that Zu's condition was very strange this time. The ball of light seemed to be about to explode, with its energy fluctuating violently. Hu Yu could feel the scorching heat and subconsciously took a few steps back.
"Mr. Zu! Mr. Zu!" Hu Yu shouted, but Zu still did not respond.
The ball of light finally moved. It began to change and transform, eventually turning into a creature with two heads and six limbs. The six python-like limbs were covered with sharp spikes, and at the ends of the soft limbs was a large mouth. The mouth on its head also had sharp fangs, and its entire body was covered with colorful scales.
Hu Yu was utterly stunned by what he saw. Wasn't this the original appearance of the Snow Tribe? How could Ancestor possibly know? Could it be that Ancestor was Snow Tribe in disguise? What kind of technology was this transformation based on? At this moment, Hu Yu's mind was completely in turmoil.
Seeing the change in the sphere of light, Yan Xue slowly walked over, her eyes filled with tears. Yan Xue wanted to touch the luminous Snow Tribe, but her hands passed right through the light and shadow. Seeing this, Hu Yu was basically certain that this ancestor was indeed Snow Tribe in disguise.
"My children! You are still alive!" The Snow Tribe, whose light sphere had transformed, also shed tears.
"Mr. Zu, you are Snow Tribe!"
"Don't call me Mr. Zu anymore. From now on, call me Chi Xue! Children, how have you all become like this?"
" Chi Xue? The First Clan Chief!" Yan Xue's eyes widened.
"Yes, I am the First Chieftain of the Snow Tribe. You should have sensed my Consciousness Field."
"First Clan Chief, aren't you already dead?"
"I did want to die, but the Snow Tribe is special. Something happened when I ended my life, which is why I became like this, living in the Secondary Universe for countless billions of years, in a daze. I never thought that there would still be members of my clan alive in this world. Haha, haha, the heavens have not forsaken my Snow Tribe."
"First Chieftain, I'm not entirely clear on the specifics. We're a small branch of the Snow Tribe, which is why we were lucky enough to escape capture back then."
"What about technology? How much of it has been preserved?"
"The initial stage of the Galaxy-Level, at most reaching the intermediate stage."
"That's all?"
"First Clan Chief, we were just a peripheral branch back then. You certainly wouldn't have left such important technology there. We're already quite fortunate to have obtained so much. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have had to wander to the Sextans for so many years. If it weren't for my elder brother, you wouldn't even be seeing us today," Yan Xue complained. After her emotions subsided, Yan Xue didn't show much respect for the First Clan Chief. Perhaps Yan Xue remembered that if it weren't for the First Clan Chief's recklessness, the Snow Tribe wouldn't be in its current state.
