After the dimensional rift was successfully closed, the universe entered a period of peace.
However, Eric, Liz, Chen Xiao, and Gong Huilan did not let their guard down.
They continue their research on dimension-related technologies and knowledge at the Cosmic Civilization Exchange Center, hoping to better cope with potential future crises.
During this process, Eric and Lisse's feelings for each other gradually deepened. They often discussed academic issues together, strolled through the universe together, and enjoyed rare moments of tranquility.
In their daily work and training, Chen Xiao and Gong Huilan developed a deeper understanding of each other, and their eye contact often contained a special emotion.
One day, the Cosmic Civilization Communication Center suddenly received a mysterious distress signal.
The signal came from a distant galaxy. The content was unclear, but it could be sensed that the civilization that sent the signal was facing a great crisis.
The vanguard team immediately decided to set off for the rescue.
On the spaceship, Eric and Liz, Chen Xiao and Gong Huilan were filled with worry and anticipation.
They didn't know what awaited them, but they were all determined to do their best to help the civilization that had cried for help.
When the vanguard reached the planet from which the distress signal had been sent, they were stunned by what they saw.
The entire planet is covered by a black substance that constantly devours all life and energy on it.
Civilization on the planet is on the verge of extinction, with only a few survivors hiding in underground shelters.
Eric led his team to begin researching the black substance, while Liz attempted to communicate with the consciousness within it using her mental power. Chen Xiao and Gong Huilan organized personnel to rescue and protect the survivors.
During their research and rescue efforts, the vanguard was attacked by monsters emerging from the black substance.
These monsters were enormous, incredibly strong, and seemed to possess some kind of intelligence. They relentlessly attacked the vanguard, attempting to halt their rescue operation.
Eric and his team engaged in a fierce battle with the monster using the spaceship's weapon systems and their own abilities. Liz used her mental powers to disrupt the monster's movements, while Chen Xiao and Gong Huilan led the other team members to protect the survivors and research equipment.
During the battle, Eric and Liss, Chen Xiao and Gong Huilan cooperated and looked after each other, and their feelings for each other were further enhanced during the battle.
After much hard work, Liss finally established communication with the consciousness within the black matter.
It turns out that this black substance is an ancient evil force that was once sealed deep within the universe, but was released for some reason.
It attempts to devour the entire universe, turning all life into its own nourishment.
In order to stop the spread of the black matter, Eric and Liss, with the help of the Cosmic Civilization Communication Center, found an energy source that could suppress the black matter.
They installed the energy source on the spaceship, then used the spaceship's energy to amplify the power of the energy source, ultimately successfully destroying the black matter and saving the endangered civilization.
After completing their mission, the vanguard team returned to the Space Civilization Communication Center.
They received a warm welcome and praise from civilizations throughout the universe.
Eric, Liz, Chen Xiao, and Gong Huilan stood on the podium, holding their medals of honor, their hearts filled with pride and joy.
They knew this was just a small episode in their journey to protect the peace and tranquility of the universe, and that many more challenges awaited them in the future.
But they believe that as long as they are united, they will be able to overcome any difficulties and protect the universe they love.
Amid cheers, Eric and Liz, Chen Xiao and Gong Huilan looked at each other with unwavering determination, and together they walked toward the future.
In the days when the universe returned to peace, Eric devoted himself to in-depth research on dimensional technology, attempting to fundamentally prevent the recurrence of similar dimensional rift crises.
Liz assisted him, and the two often spent the entire day in the laboratory, their discussions and the sounds of instruments running intertwined.
Occasionally, when Eric is troubled by a problem, Liz will quietly walk behind him, put her hands on his shoulders, and offer silent comfort and support. Eric will also hold Liz's hand in return, drawing strength from that warmth, as if all problems no longer seem so difficult.
Chen Xiao and Gong Huilan were busy training new recruits for the joint defense fleet.
Chen Xiao imparted his rich practical experience through words and deeds, while Gong Huilan focused on cultivating the recruits' tactical skills and teamwork abilities.
During breaks, Chen Xiao would pull Gong Huilan to the spaceship deck, where they would gaze at the vast starry sky and share their hopes for a peaceful future for the universe.
Gong Huilan leaned on Chen Xiao's shoulder, listening to her recount her amusing adventures in the universe, her laughter echoing softly in the tranquil cosmic environment.
However, the calm did not last long.
In a remote galaxy at the edge of the universe, some strange phenomena began to appear.
The planet's magnetic field has become inexplicably disordered, causing communication equipment to malfunction and the ecosystems of some planets to suffer damage for unknown reasons.
Initially, these anomalies were considered ordinary celestial phenomena, but as time went on, the situation became increasingly serious, attracting the attention of the Center for Cosmic Civilization Communication.
Eric and his companions received their mission and embarked on their journey once again.
The atmosphere on the spaceship was somewhat somber during the journey to the star system.
Eric carefully studied the limited information he had collected, his brow furrowed, trying to find the key to the problem.
Liz sat beside him, occasionally handing him a hot drink, her eyes full of concern.
