“Does the Void Egg seem to be hatching?”
When he received the news of the Assimilation Fighters, although Li Wenyuan did not have much of a reaction, he still mobilized a large number of fleets to that galaxy. It would be troublesome to use the Colossus to destroy the Planet Eggs scattered everywhere. It was better to use the fleet to directly resolve the Void Evil after birth.
Originally, he was still conflicted about how to deal with these eggs. Now, the news of the Assimilation Fighters helped him make a decision in advance.
No matter what, the batch that was about to hatch could not be left alive.
However, hatching also meant that he could start some of the tests that he had originally planned to do in advance.
Other than conducting experiments on how to control the Void Evil, he also tried to find the location of the Hunter through these lifeforms.
After all, Li Wenyuan had received the information that the Voyager had discovered from the Sentry Organization ruins almost at the same time. He understood that it was very likely that the Hunter was trapped somewhere, and this might be related to the scribe.
He already had a guess about the whereabouts of the Hunter civilization, which was the galaxy that was separated by a strange space-time state eight million light-years away.
After all, this place was not far from the megacorp galaxy. Furthermore, there was something that looked like a cage enveloping it. No matter how one looked at it, it was similar to the situation the Hunter was in.
As for why the Hunter didn’t choose this nearby spiral galaxy, perhaps it was because there was something in that galaxy that interested it.
Apart from that, he had also confirmed traces of humans through the Voyager. Unfortunately, because the Observation Terminal had been taken away, he could only use some more primitive methods to find the Purification Terminal. That was the place most likely to have human information.
“… I’m very curious about what kind of communication humans have with the lost empire there… Also, were there any lifeforms suspected to be Ether Dragons there?”
Li Wenyuan thought of this matter again, but the Voyager and Assimilation Fighters who were working in the galaxy over there had never discovered the existence of such a creature.
Rather, it could be said that the megacorp galaxy was actually quite clean. Be it the Hunter or the Servant, the megacorp itself had eliminated any unstable factors in the galaxy.
Even some mining drones that could not be any older in ancient times could not escape their clutches and became a kind of ore cutter for civilian use.
It was hard to believe that lifeforms like the Ether Dragons could survive.
However, based on his understanding of this news, Li Wenyuan still told the Ether Dragon about this possibility and let her decide if she wanted to go to the galaxy over there to take a look.
Hence, after learning this news from Li Wenyuan, the Ether Dragon was rather excited.
“…Could there be any news related to my race?!”
She, who was staying in her nest, was very happy about this. Her huge body jumped around in the galaxy and shook the huge bow on her head.
After all, this meant that she might not be alone.
[It’s just a possibility. At the moment, there’s no reliable evidence to prove that the creature cured by humans is the Ether Dragon.]
However, the Ether Dragon shook her huge head as if to express her denial.
“There’s a way. There will be a way. As long as I go there, I’ll be able to sense my clansmen.”
“This might sound metaphysical, but you should understand that lifeforms like us usually have some physiological specialties, just like the incomprehensible biological reactor in my body.”
“So…”
At this point, she hesitated for a moment before turning around to look at her eggs in the galaxy.
After a long period of growth, these Planet Eggs were finally approaching the incubation period. This was also the reason why the Ether Dragon was hesitating. She felt that she should be guarding these eggs during this period of time.
However, very quickly, her curiosity about her own kind and her trust in Li Wenyuan made her decide to take a look at that galaxy first.
“I want to take a look, but can you help me take care of these eggs during this period of time?”
Her biological signal was a little pitiful. It was hard to imagine such a terrifying space behemoth having such a side.
However, Li Wenyuan naturally would not object to this matter. If the Ether Dragon could indeed find out if it was her race through her magical sensing, this would solve a problem for Li Wenyuan.
Therefore, after promising to take good care of her eggs, the Ether Dragon was put into a Miniature Galaxy again.
The reason for doing so was similar to Presolin. The space-time field formed by the warp drive could not guarantee that lifeforms the size of the Ether Dragon would be enveloped.
The Ether Dragon could not grow as quickly as Presolin. In order to ensure her safety, he could only install her in the Miniature Galaxy and let the warship with the warp drive take the box away.
This wouldn’t take long. In order to prepare to escape at any time, Li Wenyuan had a large pile of Miniature Galaxies at hand. Therefore, not long after, the Ether Dragons were released from the Miniature Galaxy.
As soon as she arrived at her destination, she could clearly feel a sense of joy. The throbbing in her bones and the depths of her bloodline was summoning her to meet her fellow Ether Dragons.
Powerful lifeforms often had a strong sense of territory, but the Ether Dragon was different. In her limited memory, the Ether Dragons were a rather harmonious race.
In a one-on-one fight, other than demonstrating one’s strength, it was useless. Only unity and cooperation were the best solutions.
Just like the ancestors of humans, how did a group of primate monkeys defeat other lifeforms that were much larger than them at the same time?
After they formed the consciousness of teamwork and used their flexible hands to pick up the sharpened wooden sticks, there were no more species on this planet that they could not conquer.
The terrifying upright ape was not undeserved.
Any long-lasting lifeforms, races, or even civilizations had to be united.
It was the same for the Ether Dragons. They were able to withstand the Big Bang. Other than their strong physiques, they naturally had a united race.
Therefore, when she sensed the aura of her race, she did not panic. Instead, she was overjoyed.
However, before she could finish being happy and carefully feel the aura, the Ether Dragon’s emotions gradually changed from excitement to doubt.
This was because she felt that the aura of this race was not exactly where they were circling, but… it was as if they were scattered in every corner of the galaxy and were torn apart.
At this moment, as if due to some stimulating smell coming to this galaxy, the Void Egg finally could not hold back and hatched prematurely.
Large amounts of poisonous substances shot out from the cracks of the planet. From the bottomless core, pairs of eyes filled with greed, ferocity, and viciousness slowly opened..
