"High Priest, what should we do now? Should we continue the search or evade them?"
The crowd inquired.
After a long pause, Zhuo Yuanming slowly spoke: "This civilization absolutely cannot be left unattended. Now that it has grown so strong, the consequences of letting it continue to grow are unimaginable."
However, a hasty investigation is not a good idea. We plan to support a puppet civilization as our eyes and ears for the investigation!
We secretly provided them with technical support, allowing them to investigate and find out the situation!
"Wonderful!"
Everyone was amazed; this method was indeed excellent. If one could hide, of course one would hide behind the scenes; who would want to put themselves in danger?
Humanity is very cautious, so while they were cleaning up civilizations, they selected a suitable puppet civilization.
"May our Lord destroy their gods so that we may take control!"
Zhuo Yuanming prayed.
In order to deceive that mysterious civilization, the human race chose a civilization with a magical aspect.
This civilization is of a high level, at level two, and its star lord is a level seven star lord. Zhuo Yuanming alone cannot kill it, so he can only ask Jiang Fan for help.
"Can!"
Jiang Fan's authoritative voice echoed in Zhuo Yuanming's mind.
"Thank you, my Lord!"
Thus began a crushing war, with humanity relentlessly employing various technologies to utterly overwhelm this civilization at the second level of magic.
Over the years, humanity has collected numerous energy systems, and right from the start of the war, they employed various methods to suppress magic.
The other party was completely dumbfounded and could only stand there as punishment, watching blankly as the human walked up to them step by step and slapped them in the face.
As for the other party's creator god.
Under the powerful divine sense of Jiang Fan, a ninth-level star lord, there was no way for him to hide.
"Bullying the weak!"
Liu Zixian was furious and said disdainfully.
"It's just a matter of the strong preying on the weak; you should understand that principle."
Jiang Fan's eyes were indifferent, and he didn't blush at all. If you don't want to be bullied, you need to have enough strength before others bully you.
Liu Zixian and Xu Huang shattered a star with a single shot and a punch, attempting to buy time so they could escape.
"Supernatural power—Time Reversal!"
"Buzz—!"
In an instant, spacetime shifted, and the star that had just been blasted apart began to reshape itself, returning to its original state.
Liu Zixian, who had escaped, returned to Jiang Fan's side.
Liu Zixian's pupils contracted. What kind of method was this? Could the Star Lord really do something like this?
"Divine Art - Soul Extinction!"
In an instant, a pair of golden hands appeared behind Liu Zixian and grabbed his neck hard.
Liu Zixian wanted to escape, but his soul was firmly held in place by these hands and pulled out of his body.
"Destroy!"
Jiang Fan slowly raised his hand, and a single finger burst forth with divine light, instantly piercing through part of Liu Zixian's soul.
"ah--!"
Liu Zixian screamed in pain, his soul severely damaged, and his eyes began to glaze over.
"Return to the Soul—Parasitic Puppet!"
Jiang Fan muttered incantations, his golden pupils flashing as he connected with Liu Zixian's divine body.
Thus, a puppet creator god was created.
He was naturally aware of the human race's plans and was happy to cooperate with them.
So controlling a civilization isn't enough; there also needs to be a visible star lord to avoid suspicion.
One year later.
The modified Level 2 magical civilization began investigating the clues using the high technology provided by the human race.
The investigation has lasted for more than a decade without finding any trace, but humanity has not given up. This galaxy is vast, and finding a civilization whose traces have been erased is harder than finding a needle in a haystack.
However, humanity still has a search direction. There is no need to search within the 300 million light-years under its control; it only needs to search along the star system civilizations that have been destroyed within the 100 million light-years.
While the puppet civilization continued its search for traces, the human race did not stop its expansion.
In 900 years, the human race's territory has expanded to 500 million light-years, bringing them within half the distance of dominating the entire galaxy.
In the year 910, a divine gift, the magical civilization finally found a trace of itself.
"High Priest, we have news!"
"Is it finally coming? What's the news?"
Zhuo Yuanming arrived at the command center, where a group of people were gathered. The figure of that mysterious civilization was finally about to be revealed.
"Start retrieving surveillance footage."
One person started operating the device, and soon a screen appeared in front of everyone.
"What's this!"
Some people gasped in shock; the scene in the video was simply too stunning.
Even the usually composed Zhuo Yuanming showed a look of shock.
The image shows an enormous building situated in the universe, stretching as far as the eye can see.
Their puppet civilization only observed this scene from other star systems, so the location of this building was far away from their observation.
If you were at the foot of that thing, how big would it be!
"It looks a bit like a tower..."
Zhuo Yuanming frowned and said.
“It is indeed a tower. They said it looks a lot like a mage tower, but this is the first time they have ever seen a mage tower built to such a large size.”
Someone said.
As for who they are, they are, of course, the Puppet Magic Civilization.
"Measure the approximate height and length of this tower!"
Zhuo Yuanming said.
"yes!"
One person issued orders to the puppet civilization, instructing them to collect data on the mage tower.
Time passed by, bit by bit.
The puppet civilization used wormholes to jump through many star systems before finally collecting all the length data for this mage tower.
Human beings have also begun data analysis and computation.
"Calculating results..."
"Its bottom is circular, with a radius of 50 million light-years! Its height is 200 million light-years!"
"hiss!"
Everyone gasped in astonishment. Was it really that big?!
Zhuo Yuanming's expression was solemn. Even though he had guessed that it would be very large, he did not expect it to span 100 million light-years and be 200 million light-years high!
......
"The Sage... has discovered a civilization that is traversing different star systems to collect data from our Mage Tower."
"Oh? In the past, they would always observe from afar and then run away, too afraid to approach. How come they're so bold this time?"
The sage showed a hint of interest.
"I don't know. Maybe ignorance is bliss. The less knowledgeable a civilization is, the more courageous it appears, but it often dies from a casual blow from us."
The man shook his head.
Should we destroy it?
"Yes, let's get rid of them. Ants should know their place. If they disturb the giant's rest, even a slight movement from them will be their annihilation."
The sage said calmly.
"yes!"
"A devastating blow is brewing!"
"call out!"
A beam of light pierced through the galaxy, crossed numerous spatial nodes, and instantly arrived at the star system of the fleet personnel who were still collecting information.
"boom--!"
Before the fleet could react, it was instantly swallowed by the light and turned into nothingness.
"Target eliminated!"
"Um..."
The sage let out a nasal sound, completely unconcerned.
“Recently, my main expansion has been accelerating. The third wizard tower is under construction, and we need to continuously allocate resources to transport there.”
"Don't worry, Sage, the materials we've collected over the years are enough to meet the requirements!"
"That's good... Just a token gesture will do. There's competition among us wizards too. Every additional wizard tower represents potential competition. None of those guys are willing to concede to anyone else."
The sage glanced at the latter, and the man immediately understood.
