Light Speed ​​War

Chapter 122: The Appearance of "Pan"

Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, and Lefia first visited their children in the Star Luo Empire of the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy. The four little ones naturally received meticulous care from Lefia. The three of them entertained the four children for a long time, and the family of seven enjoyed a harmonious time together.

The three then rushed back to the Andromeda Galaxy fleet base because they received an urgent report from the fleet base that the Large Magellanic Cloud, the Magellanic Stream that originally extended into the Milky Way, had started to change direction two or three days ago and was flying at high speed toward the nearby Small Magellanic Cloud.

Is the Magic Dark Domain civilization going to flow to the Small Magellanic Cloud via this Magellanic Stream?

"We must cut off this passage. In addition, we must seal off the hyperspace of the Large Magellanic Cloud." Zhou Yuan made this decision decisively.

The Earth Empire fleet began projecting over a hundred neutron stars into hyperspace. These neutron stars formed convex arcs, blocking the Magellanic Stream on both sides. The high-speed Magellanic Stream was brought to a halt by the gravity of the neutron stars. These rotating neutron stars then began to move rapidly toward the rear of the Magellanic Stream. Driven by the gravity of these neutron stars, the Magellanic Stream began to contract and converge until the convex Magellanic Stream disappeared. To use a somewhat inappropriate analogy, this process is like several sheepdogs surrounding sheep that have run out of the pen and forcing them back into the pen.

Subsequently, the hyperspace of the Large Magellanic Cloud was immediately sealed off by the Earth Empire fleet.

Zhou Yuan, using the hyperspace communication base station built at the fleet base, began to contact the Pandora civilization according to the hyperspace communication methods provided in the "Matrix Civilization" and "Light Slice".

This time, Zhou Yuan received a response from the Pandora civilization; the signal he received was naturally translated by the Empire.

"Earth Empire Virgo Fleet, this is Pandora Virgo Fleet, looking forward to the first cooperation between our two great civilizations."

"Pandora, shouldn't your master have informed you about the situation in the Dark Realm by now?"

"Yes, Master admires your Earth Empire."

"To be honest, we are completely helpless against this magical dark domain."

"That's your kindness. Enough said, let's get there as soon as possible."

"Ok."

Twelve days later, the fleet base detected an extremely faint hyperspace oscillation in a distant galaxy cluster. However, this faint hyperspace oscillation remained stable for the next two days until a cluster of light appeared near the Large Magellanic Cloud. This cluster was much smaller than a galaxy, but it was extremely bright. The fleet detected that the cluster had a very high stellar density; within this cluster, which was ten light-years in diameter, there were approximately one hundred thousand stars.

If Zhou Yuan hadn't already informed the members of the Pan-Interstellar Alliance, they would probably have been in chaos by now at the sight of this suddenly appearing ball of light. The alliance members were just puzzled that they hadn't detected any hyperspace oscillations before the ball of light appeared. Even the Earth Empire's fleet base had only detected extremely weak hyperspace oscillations. Judging from the effect of the hyperspace oscillations, the Pandora civilization's hyperspace travel capabilities were more advanced than those of the Earth Empire.

Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, and Lefia were at the fleet base command center, about to leave the command room and prepare to pilot a spaceship.

"Zhou Yuan, this is Pandora. I'll be at your base command center soon. You don't need to come over." This time, a beautiful human woman appeared on the command center's video feed, smiling and speaking to the three of them.

All the humans on Earth at the fleet base were stunned for a moment.

"Pandora, if I may ask, is your Pandora civilization, like ours, also carbon-based humans?" Zhou Yuan couldn't help but ask.

"No, I think you've misunderstood. I am Pandora's spokesperson. I am a human that Pandora just created, solely for the purpose of better communicating with you humans on Earth now and in the future. The me you see in the video is indeed a carbon-based life form, just like you. However, I also have many unique characteristics that are different from yours, and you will find out in the future."

"Understood, Pandora. A warm welcome to the Virgo Cluster, the cradle of humankind on Earth."

"Your Milky Way has reached our Great Wall, and our Virgo team has reached your Great Wall. How interesting."

"Yes, I hope that our two civilizations will have more exchanges and cooperation in the future."

"The Earth Empire is a rising star, and our master greatly admires you. A few of us are a little jealous."

“Pandora, you have made great contributions in the war at the Great Wall. We have only done our best to fulfill our master’s instructions.”

"In this universe, doing your job well is not easy. I'm coming right away."

From that super-bright light, a warship with a blue halo suddenly appeared and then disappeared, arriving near the fleet base in the blink of an eye. Seemingly to respect the Earth Empire's territorial jurisdiction, the warship, with its entire body shimmering with a blue halo, hovered a million kilometers away from the fleet base.

"Earth Empire, Pandora requests that the Blue Halo enter your Empire's fleet base."

"Entry permitted."

As soon as the signal was sent, the Blue Halo warship suddenly appeared at the fleet base docking port.

A stunningly beautiful woman, the spokesperson for the Pandora civilization, was teleported to the fleet base command center. The center was already filled with fleet commanders, senior base commanders, and scientists from the Academy of Sciences.

Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, and Lefia greeted them outside the conference center. Pandora, also a great beauty, was slightly shorter than Wei Shan and Lefia. Seemingly familiar with the etiquette of the Earth Empire, Pandora immediately stepped forward to shake hands with Zhou Yuan and embraced Wei Shan and Lefia.

"Gentlemen, let's skip the formalities. Our previous reconnaissance showed that a subatomic substance is active throughout the Large Magellanic Cloud. This subatomic substance exists in clumps, clusters, and is sometimes intertwined in interstellar space, and sometimes diffused throughout interstellar space." Pandora went straight to the point as soon as she sat down. "Those seven thousand-plus destroyed white dwarf stars are the energy source for the evolution and advancement of the Magic Dark Domain. And those hundred-plus neutron stars, you must have been preventing the Magic Dark Domain from traveling to the Small Magellanic Cloud via the Magellanic Stream, right?"

"Yes, we've also sealed off the Large Magellanic Hyperspace. We're worried that the Dark Realm of Magic will soon be able to travel across galaxies."

“Zhou Yuan, you did a great job. If it weren’t for the other intelligent civilizations in the Large Magellanic Cloud, you probably would have thrown the Magic Dark Domain into the ‘Gravity Source’ long ago.”

"Yes, I wonder if you have any good solutions?"

"According to the master's wishes, it would be best to completely destroy the Magic Dark Domain, which means throwing the Large Magellan into the 'Gravity Source.' As for the intelligent civilization within, we can handle it."

"How do you plan to handle this? Perhaps some intelligent civilizations have already been 'infected' by the magical dark domain."

"Hmph, the Dark Magic Domain, trying to 'infect' us? That's impossible. Even if those intelligent civilizations were 'infected' by the Dark Magic Domain, I would force them to leave their 'hosts'. I just received information that we are about to 'photonize' the intelligent civilizations in the Large Magellanic Cloud."

"'Photonicization'?"

"Simply put, we convert all intelligent life forms in the Large Magellanic Cloud into photons, filter and strip the subatomic state of the magical black domain, and then restore these photons. It's somewhat similar to your light transmission technology, but we've added a filtering and stripping process."

"understood."

The fleet base began detecting the orb of light rapidly moving through hyperspace in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The hyperspace blockade implemented by the Earth Empire seemed ineffective against it. After circling the Large Magellanic Cloud four or five times, numerous bright bands of light began to rise and appear throughout the galaxy. These bands of light converged at a concentrated speed towards the orb. At a certain point in the orb, there appeared to be a gap, through which these converging bands of light entered the orb. This flow of light bands into the orb resembled jellyfish on the ocean floor. The fleet base also detected black, filamentous structures at the edges of some of these bands of light.

"Those black threads are subatomic matter that has been filtered, stripped away, and blocked from entering the 'photon ring,' which is the magical black domain."

Zhou Yuan and other humans on Earth were naturally filled with awe and admiration for Pandora's advanced technology. Members of the Pan-Interstellar Alliance, of course, did not miss the opportunity to witness this advanced civilization of Pandora demonstrate its cutting-edge technology.

However, the Earth Empire's Andromeda Galaxy fleet base clearly detected hyperspace oscillations in the Peacock and Saga superclusters.

"Ignore them, let's just wait for them to come." Pandora was very calm, and Zhou Yuan and the others were naturally not flustered either.

The intelligent civilization in the Large Magellanic Cloud completed its photonization in less than half a day. The cluster of light began to leave the Large Magellanic Cloud and head towards the Small Magellanic Cloud, circling the Small Magellanic Cloud several times.

Then, the orb of light opened the gap, revealing numerous bright beams of light that scattered at the speed of light throughout interstellar space. Miraculously, the outlines of many warships appeared within these beams, and intelligent civilizations emerged aboard their respective ships. This time, Pandora created warships for each intelligent civilization, providing them with a place to reside.

"Zhou Yuan, it's up to you guys now."

"it is good."

"Wait, something's not right. Has the Dark Magic Domain gone mad?"

The Large Magellanic Cloud has indeed gone mad. The Magellanic Stream, which was pulled back and blocked by the gravity of neutron stars, has begun to crash into the Small Magellanic Cloud at high speed! Even the gravitational pull of more than a hundred neutron stars cannot stop the mad Magellanic Stream. Due to the gravitational differentiation effect of neutron stars, the Magellanic Stream is split into many narrow hydrogen cloud bands. Some hydrogen cloud bands are directly captured and collided by the gravity of neutron stars, causing them to explode, while some hydrogen cloud bands escape through the gravitational gaps of neutron stars.

"Do they want to escape? Not so easy."

The Virgo Supercluster soon experienced violent hyperspace oscillations. The Large Magellanic Cloud, like a giant meteor with a long tail, suddenly disappeared. The hyperspace oscillations then slowly subsided, and the dragging effect indicated that the aftershocks were fading towards the Hydra-Centaur direction. Undoubtedly, the Large Magellanic Cloud was wiped out by Pandora's "Giant Gravitational Source," and even the hundred-odd neutron stars projected by the Earth Empire vanished.

The Small Magellanic Cloud, having lost the Large Magellanic Cloud, naturally experienced significant gravitational oscillations. However, the force field generators deployed by the Earth Empire fleet gradually stabilized the Small Magellanic Cloud.

"Pandora, there's something I just can't figure out."

"what's up?"

"Since your 'Giant Gravitational Source' can clean up galaxies, why doesn't the master clean up the Andromeda Galaxy?"

"Hmm, you mean eliminating the master's enemies, the 'Light-Descent Civilization'?"

"Yes."

"The master must have his reasons. I think we should focus on ourselves."

Pandora refers to the hyperspace oscillations that occurred in the Peacock and Sculptor superclusters, which gradually propagated to the Virgo cluster from two different directions.

Scientists at the Imperial Fleet base analyzed that hyperspace oscillations of this scale are also caused by star clusters or stellar groups.
