Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 1124 The road is long and difficult
The civilizations were dividing up the transport ships of the Tianxing civilization while enjoying the human beings' actions of burning the Tianxing people. They felt the strong hatred and madness of the human beings from their actions.

It is a happy thing to share other people's resources, especially in this vast nothingness.

But happiness is always short-lived, and the division soon came to an end.

After the division was completed, the ordinary civilizations were worried about whether the big civilizations would complete the second half of the journey by rotating the "leader" as mentioned before.

Obviously, their worries were unnecessary, but that was the case for now. Everyone had just divided up the material assets of the Tianxing civilization, and several big civilizations were still trying to find justifications in the process of slaughtering the Tianxing civilization. Naturally, they couldn't just stop following the rules after the fight.

As for the "leader" of the next stage, after discussion among the thirteen civilizations, it was decided that the Feiyu civilization would take over, and it was agreed that they would travel 100,000 light years before rotating to the next civilization.

After this arrangement, the other civilizations finally put their minds at ease.

The voyage of the Great Long-distance Fleet Cluster soon resumed. The Tianxing Civilization incident seemed like a brief interlude. Its impact now disappeared except for bringing some resource supplies to many civilizations.

The Tianxing civilization was completely destroyed, and the only thing left of its existence is the memory of the Great Ocean Voyage civilization.

The time of sailing in the void passed quickly, and more than four hundred years went by in a flash. It was time to replace the "leader goose", and this time no civilization made things difficult for it.

After changing the "leader", the Great Voyage Fleet also stopped in the void for some supplies, and then continued to start warp speed. Of course, it did not draw energy from the void for replenishment, but from the transport fleets of each civilization.

Four hundred years passed by, and time moved forward at an exaggerated speed. The great fleet also went farther and farther in the dark deep space, and the "leader" was changed again and again under such circumstances.

During this period, they did not encounter the dangerous things that the Awakener had said before, that the deep void was also full of dangers, and the fleet seemed to be sailing smoothly.

But soon as time went on, the fleet encountered the first crisis since it set sail.

The crisis does not come from the fragments of the void rules, but from the great voyage itself.

The leader of a level six civilization who served as the "leader" cried to the Great Voyage Organization, saying that their resources would definitely not be able to sustain the Andromeda Galaxy, and that they must find a void dark matter island as soon as possible.

The long distance became the first danger encountered by the Great Long-distance Fleet, and the first danger was a fatal danger, which was also something that the Awakener Huan did not clearly state at the beginning.

The resources of various civilizations were constantly consumed during the voyage, and the rate of resource depletion seemed to be even faster in the second half. Of course, that was an illusion. After all, the actual situation of the long-distance fleet was that the longer it sailed, the smaller its size became.

Yes, when the Great Voyage Organization reached the second half of its journey, although there were some supplies from the Celestial Civilization that could replenish their supplies, the problem that the greater the mass, the greater the propulsion required was not fundamentally solved.

Many civilizations had run out of resources in the second half of the voyage, and in order to save losses, they had even begun dismantling empty transport ships.

This is how the size of the Great Voyage Fleet Cluster was reduced. The emergence of this situation also means that the Great Voyage Fleet Cluster really has a fuel crisis. Just as the sixth-level civilization said, it is necessary to find a "dark matter island" in this empty void.

In fact, not only the sixth-level civilization was aware of it, but human civilization, Shenju civilization, Galactic Center civilization, Awakener civilization and some other sixth-level civilizations had also discovered it long ago. And before that, these civilizations had observed the void in all directions many times every time they stopped to change the "leader", trying to find traces of the existence of the "dark matter island".

However, the result of each observation was disappointment.

This vast nothingness seems to be just vast nothingness.

On the other hand, because the straight-line distance is the shortest, the Great Sailing Fleet did not dare to circle around in the void to search. After all, if they still couldn't find the "dark matter island" by circling around, it would be a dead end.

So what if we just keep heading towards the Andromeda Galaxy?
Obviously, the Great Voyage Fleet has always been traveling this way, but problems have already arisen. Some level six civilizations can no longer hold on, or they have realized that if they continue in this way, their civilization will be the first to perish in the void due to fuel problems.

So what would other civilizations do then? Would they watch this level 6 civilization perish, or give them some resources to keep them alive? Or would they just take advantage of the situation and kill them off, turning them into fuel?

As the first civilization to encounter this problem, what choice should they make? Should they perish quietly, or take advantage of their own battle fleets and find the right time to launch a surprise attack on other civilizations that still have resources, destroy them, and then plunder their resources.

Anything could happen, but in fact, ordinary level six civilizations all know that plundering other civilizations' resources in the form of war may not work.

Because they cannot destroy other civilizations as quickly and easily as those big civilizations, and if the battle lasts too long or a miserable victory is achieved, it will be fatal to their own civilization.

The former is that the resources and energy consumed by the war are more than what is gained after the war, and the more the war goes on, the further away we get from the Andromeda Galaxy. The latter is like a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

Relatively speaking, because the big civilizations have always been in the most advantageous sailing position, they have not yet dismantled their transport ships. But everyone knows that if they continue on this path, the big civilizations will reach that point sooner or later.

I don’t know exactly when it will appear.

That is the real crisis, and there seems to be only one way to solve the crisis, which is to find a "dark matter island."

But there is nothing in the vast void, and dark matter is difficult to observe. If it is inside the Milky Way, it is okay, after all, there are active stars as the background, and we can judge something through the gravitational effect. But the background of this empty space is pitch black, and it is impossible to find gravitational anomalies through the bending of light.

If you want to find the "dark matter island", you have to send out detectors to search everywhere, but detectors also consume energy. In theory, the more detectors are sent out, the easier it is to find the "dark matter island", but a large fleet will also consume more energy.

There is no road in the void, but all civilizations feel that the road is long and difficult.

Perhaps it was not yet the end of the road. Faced with this situation, several bigwigs of the Great Voyage Organization discussed for a while and decided to send more probes to search around. At the same time, they also gave that civilization a batch of supplies and replaced it with the position of the leader.
