(First, let's discuss the size of the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. It has a mass of approximately 4 million Sun masses and a radius of about 0.3 AU. Compared to other massive black holes, the Milky Way's supermassive black hole isn't particularly large. The reason why the first image of a black hole released last year wasn't of the Milky Way's supermassive black hole is partly due to its relatively small size (the specific reasons won't be detailed here; please consult relevant materials). This also likely contributed to the choice of M87's supermassive black hole as the primary source of data. Also, please be aware that the black hole controlled by Fish Horse Star described in the book is larger than the Milky Way's supermassive black hole.)
Before long, a wicked plan formed in the mind of the leader of Yun San Yun San. Under the leader's arrangement, this human planet was transported by warship to a corner of the Milky Way in the three-dimensional universe. This place belonged to the territory of the insect swarm. However, because it was on the edge, the insect swarm was very sparse here, and the insects could hardly be seen in the starry sky.
On the contrary, there are still some scattered warships wandering around. Although most of the river civilizations have fled, a small number of the remaining civilizations have not given up monitoring the swarm. There are still enough fleets at the defense line to resist the spread of the swarm, but the number of fleets has decreased a lot because the quality has improved and so many fleets are no longer needed.
After conducting reconnaissance in the fourth dimension, the fleet returned to the three-dimensional universe. Soon, a passage was established, connecting one end to a First-Tier Mother Insect unit, and the other end to the planet.
After completing this task, the Yun San Fleet immediately left the area. A few minutes later, plump, white First-Tier Mother Insect with sharp mouths began to gush out from the passage. It was as if a hole had appeared in the sky above the planet, with millions of insects falling out of the hole every second.
A colossal insect mountain soon appeared on the planet below the passage. This was a real insect mountain, and from a distance, its height surpassed any other mountain on the planet. Moreover, it was entirely white, resembling a magnificent snow mountain. However, upon closer inspection, one could discover the eerie nature of this snow mountain, as every part of it was filled with writhing mother insects.
As time went on, the area of Insect Mountain continued to expand. The two cities near Insect Mountain soon became the feeding grounds of the mother insect. Humans, plants, and even buildings all became food for the mother insect to fill its belly. The cries and screams echoed through the heavens and earth, but were quickly drowned out by the chewing sounds of the mother insect.
The surviving humans immediately fled the planet using various means of transportation. By this time, information on the planet was highly developed, and people had a relatively high level of scientific literacy. News of the insect swarm quickly spread throughout the planet, and they soon realized that this was an irresistible catastrophe.
Within almost 24 hours, the planet descended into chaos, with the incidence of various violent incidents skyrocketing. Soon, the planet was engulfed in smoke and fire. If other civilizations were to witness this, they would find it an unbelievable scene. The first thing people did was not to take up arms to resist these relatively weak mother insects, but rather to panic and engage in a series of violent incidents.
"Chief, General Bai has led a portion of the army in a mutiny." Inside a mechanical tower, the planetary chief was in a state of utter disarray. This chief was Hu Yu, the only conscious individual whom Hu Yu had treated for his disability and altered Fang Wei genes.
After Hu Yu left, Fang Wei used the survival skills left behind in the mechanical tower to lead some people to survive. Fang Wei still remembers that scene vividly.
Back then, Hu Yu abandoned over 800 billion humans on this planet without providing any food. These captives didn't even know how to start a fire. When winter came, the people, lacking food and clothing, suffered from hunger and cold and died in droves. At that time, the land was littered with corpses and piles of bones.
The survivors began to pluck clothing from the corpses for warmth and gnawed on various plants on the planet. When the plants were gone, they resorted to eating raw meat and drinking blood, hunting wild animals, and even cannibalism when starving. With so many corpses that no scientific methods were used, a plague broke out. People cried out to heaven and earth, trying to call upon their god to save them, but ultimately the god did not come. Only Fang Wei knew that the so-called god had been completely wiped out by Hu Yu and would never appear again.
Back then, Hu Yu estimated that only one in ten thousand people would survive, but the reality was far more brutal than Hu Yu estimated. Of the 800 billion people, after ten years, less than two million survived. However, these two million people had already mastered basic survival skills.
They carved caves into the mountains to live in, learned to fish and hunt, and had enough food to barely fill their stomachs. They learned to make fire and keep it burning. With fire, the spread of the plague was contained. After another ten years, the surviving people barely adapted to this new world. In order to survive, they had to start primitive slash-and-burn agriculture.
Later, they gradually discovered that these people had normal intelligence and were fully evolved humans. They quickly found patterns in various natural phenomena, and culture was born. However, the development of this planet was still brutal. Fang Wei was definitely not a qualified leader. Compared to Li Shun, Fang Wei was not even a smattering. He only became the leader because he made the greatest contribution among the survivors on the entire planet.
Moreover, Fang Wei's genes were modified by Hu Yu, giving him a lifespan far exceeding that of any ordinary person. This almost miraculous existence and Fang Wei's contributions allowed Fang Wei leadership position. However, the war behind the scenes never ceased. All the forces on the planet respected Fang Wei their leader, but in reality, the planet was divided among warlords, with constant warfare.
Even the only military commander under Fang Wei's command has mutinied, yet Fang Wei shows no emotion whatsoever, as if he knew all along. Although Fang Wei also has strong personal motives, having experienced the terror of the Mu Star Civilization and the planetary reshuffle, his Fang Wei perspective is much stronger than that of others.
"Let him be, we are a race without hope."
What to do with the insect swarm?
"Send out a distress signal and broadcast globally, urging everyone to cease hostilities and unite to eliminate the swarm."
Fang Wei, the leader of the planet. Under his command, the scattered armed forces began to advance towards the Insect Mountain. The technology on this planet had reached the Planet-Level Advanced Stage. As long as the mother insect did not evolve, blocking the mother insect would not be a problem. However, the evolution of the mother insect could not be stopped, but the people on the planet did not know this.
