Eugene Civilization, Flagship Command Center.

A tall Eugene lizardman sat in the command seat, his eyes slightly closed, seemingly conserving his energy.

He was the 369th emperor of the Eugene civilization.

From any perspective, he was the most powerful emperor in the history of the Eugene civilization.

Under its leadership, the Eugene civilization successfully established itself in this star system and forged its current illustrious reputation!

"Your Majesty the Emperor, His Excellency Yves has returned."

The moment the voice rang out, Emperor Eugene, whose eyes were slightly closed, slowly opened his somewhat pale eyelids, revealing his orange-yellow vertical pupils.

“Your Majesty, Your Excellency Yves…” The lizardman hesitated before speaking.

Emperor Eugene's eyes flickered slightly as he casually glanced at the crew member who had spoken, his vertical pupils revealing his impatient tone. "Just say what you have to say. Do you want to become canned food too?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards waiting nearby quickly stepped forward and stared intently at the crew member with murderous and bloodthirsty eyes.

"His Excellency Yves seems quite flustered; General Corey might be..."

"Let it come to me." Emperor Eugene sat up straight, his expression gradually becoming serious.

...

A few minutes later.

Accompanied by a series of hurried and flustered footsteps, a lizardman stumbled and ran up to Emperor Eugene.

"Bang!"

Under the equivalent gravity generated by its rotation, its body crashed heavily onto the deck with a dull thud.

This scene made Emperor Eugene's expression grow even more solemn.

"Your Majesty, the fleet led by General Corey has likely met with disaster!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Eugene's expression changed drastically. He jumped up from his chair and grabbed Yves by the neck with his sharp claws, pulling him in front of him: "The Talodan civilization is nothing more than a third-level civilization without any armed forces."

"How could General Corey have met with such an accident?"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Yves, his eyes slightly white as his neck was being gripped, said with great difficulty, "The ship, the fleet, seems to have encountered an advanced civilization..."

"An advanced civilization?" Emperor Eugene loosened his grip slightly, giving Yves a chance to catch his breath. "When did this star system develop a Level 4 civilization?"

Feeling the pressure on his neck ease slightly, Yves quickly took a few breaths: "Yes, it's a Level 5 civilization!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Eugene gasped for breath, and his orange-yellow vertical pupils instantly contracted into straight lines.

Yves could even see that the emperor's fine scales were standing up slightly!

Clearly, his words had a tremendous impact on this powerful emperor!

"Bang!"

The next moment, accompanied by a familiar dull thud, Yves was once again thrown hard to the ground.

Emperor Eugene sat back down in his seat, panting heavily, and licked the mucus off his eyelids.

"Tell me, what exactly happened?"

Despite the pain coursing through his body, Yves quickly adjusted his position, prostrated himself at the emperor's feet, and began to explain rapidly.

...

After hearing Yves's explanation, Emperor Eugene's face grew even more somber, and his unease intensified.

"Go, send a technician to check it out carefully."

"Let's see what's going on with Corey's fleet."

"We've already sent people to check," a crew member replied cautiously. "The results shouldn't be out for long..."

Before the words were even finished, a panicked shout came from the dark doorway.

"Something terrible has happened! Your Majesty, something has gone wrong!!"

"All of General Corey's warships have lost contact!"

"The quantum communication device is no longer working properly!"

The technician's shouts confirmed Emperor Eugene's suspicions.

"A Level 5 civilization!" It sat down in its chair, took a deep breath, and tried its best to calm the fear in its heart. "Damn it! How could there be a Level 5 civilization in this star system!"

His sharply constricted vertical pupils still clearly showed the emperor's inner terror.

Although the Eugene civilization has never directly confronted a Level 5 civilization, the mysterious disappearance of the Kree fleet, without even having time to send a warning message, is enough to prove the power of a Level 5 civilization!

what to do?

Emperor Eugene's brain was working at lightning speed.

Its rich experience in warfare revealed the final answer.

Even though this answer left it extremely unwilling.

After a long silence, Emperor Eugene exhaled a long breath and, with his remaining rationality, issued the order.

“Designate that star region as a restricted area.”

"Order all branch fleets to abandon all missions and get away at all costs!"

It remained silent for a moment before continuing its command: "Increase the fleet's speed, replenish necessary supplies at the target star system, and immediately move away from this star system!"

"Let's set the destination... 500 light-years away."

As soon as he finished speaking, the command center erupted in an uproar!

“Your Majesty, this…I’m afraid it’s unnecessary?” a crew member asked cautiously. “We’ve worked so hard to achieve our current status in this star system. I’m worried that if we go to other star systems…”

The sailor's words clearly resonated with many.

A murmur rippled through the command center.

The sound wasn't loud, but to Emperor Eugene it was extremely grating.

Emperor Eugene abruptly turned his head, staring intently at the crew member with his bloodshot orange-yellow pupils: "Are you questioning my orders?"

"take away."

"Make it into canned goods."

A command was squeezed out from between its sharp teeth.

The moment the crew member was dragged away, the whispers in the command center instantly vanished.

"Get everything straight!"

"I am the emperor! The emperor of the Eugene civilization!"

"Without me, could the Eugene civilization have developed to its current state?!"

"What identity or status do you have to question me?" It narrowed its bloodthirsty eyes, watched the figure receding into the distance, and spat disdainfully.

Then, it looked at the crew members around it with its bloodshot eyes again and shouted in a hoarse voice.

"What are you all standing there for? Fleet, accelerate immediately!"

"After replenishing supplies, the Great Migration of Civilization Begins!"

The once-silent command center has become busy again.

Emperor Eugene waved his hand impatiently, dismissing the crew around him, and then closed his eyes again.

Everything seemed to have returned to how it was a few hours ago.

However, judging from Emperor Eugene's constantly trembling white eyelids and the oppressive atmosphere in the command center, the current Eugene civilization is not as peaceful as it appears on the surface.
