Chapter 123: First Collaboration
"Dean Zhou, Commander-in-Chief Comm of the Sand Star Human Race and Singlont, Speaker of the Protoss Race, request to have a video call with you."
"Get in."
"Yes."
Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, Lefia, and the stunningly beautiful Panna—all the representatives of Pandora—were at the command center. Panna was a name Wei Shan and Lefia jointly chose for the beautiful Pandora representative, to avoid confusion with the real Pandora civilization.
"Comm, Xinglongt, hello. Let me introduce you. This is Panna, an envoy from the Pandora civilization."
"Ah? Dean Zhou, hello, Panna, hello." Com and Xinglongt were slightly surprised to see Panna, probably not expecting that the creatures of the renowned Pandora civilization were also human. Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, and Lefia did not offer any further explanation.
"Comm, Xinglongte, hello." Panna was polite and even waved to the screen with a smile.
Xinglongte got to the main point first, "Dean Zhou, we detected two violent hyperspace tremors in the central region of the Virgo Supercluster. Judging from their scale, the opponent is quite formidable. It seems our alliance members will once again be bystanders. I'm sorry, our Protoss and Sandstar races have been unable to offer much help."
“Dean Zhou, Xinglongte is right. We Sand Star people have always been grateful to the Empire, but unfortunately we are not strong enough to help.”
“Starront, Com, you don’t need to be so polite. The Earth Empire has always borne the main responsibility, and will naturally handle things on its own as long as it is within its capabilities.”
“Starlont, Com, don’t worry. The Earth Empire fleet is capable of handling those two star clusters, Peacock and Yufu. This time, we’ll just observe from the sidelines.” Panna meant that the Earth Empire fleet would be facing the challenge from two forces alone this time, and Pandora probably wanted to see the strength of the Earth Empire.
“Panna, don’t stand idly by if we can’t handle this,” Lefia said, glancing at Panna.
"Lefia, of course. We are allies with you."
"Comm, Xinglongt, please inform the other alliance members that the Empire will be sealing off all hyperspace in the Andromeda Galaxy, and have their fleets temporarily cease all intergalactic travel."
"Ok."
About ten days later, a larger star cluster entered the Andromeda Galaxy from hyperspace. Two days after that, another smaller star cluster entered the Andromeda Galaxy from another direction in hyperspace. The more than five hundred globular clusters in the Andromeda Galaxy seemed to make the two star clusters hesitate. In the Andromeda Galaxy, the two star clusters obviously slowed down and moved cautiously and slowly.
The tiny, dense, superluminous cluster of stars in the Virgo constellation of the Pandora civilization naturally attracted the attention of two other star clusters, which began to slowly approach the Pandora superluminous cluster from both sides.
Suddenly, on each of the two sides of the Pandora superluminous orb, a translucent golden sphere the size of the moon, gleaming with a bright light, appeared.
These two golden spheres, each the size of the moon, were moving rapidly toward the two star clusters. To the star clusters, the moon-sized golden spheres were far too small, like the difference between an ant and a mountain.
The two clusters of starlight also sped toward the golden sphere.
By the time the two stellar clusters realized the anomaly, it was too late. The immense, unknown gravity of the golden sphere forcibly dragged the stellar clusters into a dark abyss, and the two stellar clusters were each sucked into a golden sphere the size of the moon.
The members of the Pan-Interstellar Alliance naturally detected this phenomenon. Apart from the Sandstar Humans and Protoss, the other Alliance members assumed the two golden spheres were creations of the Pandora civilization. The Sandstar Humans and Protoss knew these golden spheres were a powerful weapon of the Earth Empire, especially the Protoss, who knew the Earth Empire's golden spheres utilized a shrinking technology originating from their own. From then on, the Protoss also attempted to create similar weapons using these metallic spheres.
"Panna, what should we do with these two stellar clusters? Should we throw them into the 'Giant Gravitational Source'?"
"I never imagined you would invent such a powerful compression technology weapon. This weapon will be of great use in the war for the Great Wall of Space."
"You flatter me. Compared to your Pandora's 'Giant Gravity Source,' our 'Shengtian Bowl' is nothing but a drop in the ocean."
“‘Shengtian Bowl’? Hmm, really impressive. No wonder the master praised you so highly. These two star clusters were captured by you, so of course it’s up to you to decide.”
Two golden spheres began to open, releasing two clusters of starlight. Once the two clusters of starlight were restored, they quickly moved away from the two golden spheres from two different directions, as if fleeing from a powerful enemy.
The two stellar clusters seemed to stop when they thought they were far enough away from the golden sphere. Both clusters gazed at the tiny golden sphere ahead, seemingly hesitant about whether to continue their attack.
Suddenly, two massive stars leaped out from the smaller stellar cluster and sped toward the two golden spheres. When the two massive stars were a certain distance away from the golden spheres, the smaller stellar cluster fired two beams of energy toward the two massive stars. The two massive stars suddenly emitted intense gamma-ray bursts, and soon, massive black holes appeared in front of the two golden spheres.
The immense gravity of the supermassive black hole seemed to be pulling the golden sphere, accelerating it towards the center of the black hole's accretion disk. The golden sphere swirled rapidly within the accretion disk, and suddenly, it emitted a burst of intense light. From within the golden sphere, neutron stars and other stars were continuously ejected into the black hole's accretion disk. These two supermassive black holes acted as launchers for miniature "sky-sniping arrows."
Two intense gamma-ray bursts erupted from the centers of two supermassive black holes, hitting the smaller stellar cluster precisely. As the golden sphere spun faster in the black hole's accretion disk and ejected neutron star faster, the intensity of the small "sky-sniping arrow" gamma-ray bursts increased.
Smaller stellar clusters, bombarded by two extremely intense gamma-ray bursts, exploded violently like a series of firecrackers, emitting intense rays and light. Some stellar clusters transformed into neutron stars, while others became black holes. Vast streams of matter erupted from within the clusters, one of which directly struck the supermassive black hole containing the golden spheres, where it was shattered by the black hole's gamma-ray bursts. The golden spheres accelerated and began to move away from the supermassive black hole, with the two spheres eventually approaching and hovering near the Pandora superluminal cluster.
The smaller stellar cluster continued to be damaged by its own internal defects, and intense reactions and collapses began to occur inside it, eventually disintegrating and emitting light and heat.
The larger stellar cluster had already accelerated its escape when the two supermassive black holes emitted intense gamma-ray bursts. Hyperspace travel failed; warp drive was possible, allowing it to enter warp space and escape far away. However, warp drive is limited to the Andromeda Galaxy. To travel across galaxies, this larger stellar cluster needed to break through the hyperspace blockade imposed by the Earth Empire. If it couldn't break through the hyperspace blockade, this larger stellar cluster would need at least several million years to reach the neighboring galaxy of Andromeda, the Triangulum Galaxy. To travel to even more distant galaxies would take tens or hundreds of millions of years.
This large cluster of stars, like a headless fly, wanders through the Andromeda Galaxy, sometimes warp-drives, sometimes travels in normal space, and constantly attempts to travel in hyperspace.
"Brother, this can't go on. If we push it too far, it might harm some intelligent civilizations in the Andromeda Galaxy."
“Yes, Sister Shan is right, even a cornered dog will jump over the wall.” Lefia said mischievously again.
"A cornered dog will jump over the wall? Oh, I see." Panna also started to joke around.
What would you do if you were in that situation?
"Destroy it!" Panna exuded a murderous aura.
"Fine, forget I asked." Zhou Yuan said helplessly.
"Oh no!" Panna suddenly cried out.
Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, and Lefia were also startled, and then became nervous. Because the larger cluster of stars was recklessly hurtling towards the Maguar Globular Cluster, the largest globular cluster in the Andromeda Galaxy.
What's this stellar cluster going to do? Collide with the Maguar globular cluster?
This Maguar globular cluster contains the "Radiant Civilization," an enemy of the "Matrix Civilization." The owner wanted to destroy the globular cluster without permission.
The Virgo constellation of the Pandora civilization, that small, dense, and extremely bright cluster of light, began to accelerate and then entered hyperspace, directly intercepting the larger cluster of starlight in its path.
Without a word, the Pandora superluminal cluster began to produce many "tentacle-like emission tubes" on its surface. Energy streams shot directly from these thousands of "tentacle-like emission tubes" towards the larger star cluster that was coming towards it. These energy streams seemed to be even more intense than gamma-ray bursts. In no time, the larger star cluster was torn apart, exploded, and annihilated.
The Earth Empire subsequently lifted the hyperspace blockade of the Andromeda Galaxy and informed all members of the Pan-Interstellar Alliance that the star cluster threat from the Peacock and Shogun superclusters had been eliminated.
"Zhou Yuan, our mission is over. We must return to the Pandora base to continue our war on the Great Wall. To be honest, we are really looking forward to your Earth Empire joining the battle soon, and to our two great civilizations cooperating once again." Pana, the Pandora representative, bid farewell with reluctance.
"Panna, we will definitely meet again."
"Okay, goodbye." Panna boarded the Blue Halo warship and disappeared from the fleet base. A moment later, a bright white sphere appeared above the Andromeda Galaxy, then entered hyperspace and disappeared, leaving only a faint aftershock of hyperspace vibrations.
"Panna, that beautiful woman, is quite nice. We just got to know her, and she left. This Panna is no different from any other human being on Earth." Wei Shan seemed to feel a pang of regret; in the few days they spent together, Panna was practically just like any other human being on Earth.
"Sister Shan, didn't she say that she also has many differences from humans? I wonder what makes her different? I'm very curious."
"Princess, if fate allows, we will meet her again."
"I wonder how the 'Genesis Project' is going? It should be over by now, right? I need to contact the Earth Empire Galaxy."
Zhou Yuan made contact with Thomas through the fleet base's hyperspace communication station.
"Dean Zhou, how is the 'Magic Dark Domain' doing?"
"Thomas, the 'Magic Dark Domain' has been completely eradicated by Pandora."
"So fast?"
"Yes, the Pandora civilization is far more advanced than our empire."
Thomas remained silent for a moment.
"Thomas, is the 'Genesis Project' over?"
"It's over. Our master recently gave us the fourth task."
"What mission?"
"Officially commencing participation in the Great Wall of Space Wars."
"So fast?"
"Yes, Master said time is of the essence. He said he has discovered that several lords of the Great Wall are secretly colluding and preparing to launch a major attack on our Matrix Wall camp."
"Okay. Let's get back as soon as possible."
"Those one hundred fleets, station them in the Andromeda Galaxy. The three of you can come back."
"Ok."
Zhou Yuan chaired a fleet base meeting, read out the order from fleet commander Thomas, and then instructed the fleet base commanders on various matters. After that, the three of them hurriedly went to the Star Luo Empire in the Canis Major Dwarf Star System to visit the children.
After spending half a day in the Star Luo Empire, Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, and Lefia began crossing the Great Wall of their own universe again, heading towards the Armenian Great Wall of the Earth Empire's Milky Way galaxy.
