Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 1441 The Vast Heaven
One flagship is enough to deal with you.

The Lyra, Neutron War Star, Galaxy, Daya, Falcon, and Abyss are all flagships that remain in place. They represent the highest combat power of their respective civilizations and serve as a military guarantee to prevent conflicts between civilizations that travel to other star systems for research.

It's true that various agreements have been signed, but any agreement must be backed by force; otherwise, it's just a piece of toilet paper.

As a technologically advanced civilization, the Flying Feather Civilization did not leave behind its own flagship because their unique technology was a group-based technology. The enhancement effect of the warp drive was not significant, and more importantly, they felt that with these powerful figures in charge, their presence or absence of these warships would have no impact whatsoever.

They believed in the divine civilization.

As for the Awakener civilization, they all switched to Level 5 civilization engine technology and then headed towards a void, leaving no trace of the Awakener Illusion.

This group of people are all soldiers, researchers, and scientists; they all have to go. They are few in number, so we need to do our best to cooperate.

Most importantly, they believe in human civilization.

Each civilization spent approximately five to six hundred years completing the downgrading of its research ships and other types of ships, and then formed fleets that headed into the void. These fleets used Level 5 civilization technology in everything from energy technology to various propulsion systems, thus reducing their speed to the level of a Level 5 civilization.

Due to the energy downgrade, the size of the spaceships was also changed to that of star-class spaceships.

From the outside, they look like a group of people from a Level 5 civilization.

Everyone knows this is the last chance.

Perhaps terrified by the effects of dark matter, the two major spacefaring organizations created a gravitational field to ensure they did not carry any dark matter. Before each spaceship departed, it had to pass through the vicinity of that powerful gravitational field for a period of time.

The goal is to "disinfect and sterilize," using a powerful gravitational field to absorb any dark matter that might be attached to the spaceship or even intelligent life forms. This is, of course, the technology of the Divine Mobility civilization.

The two major expeditions also joined forces and shared dark matter probe technology to create a huge and extremely sensitive dark matter probe to scan all the spacecraft that went there for scientific research, ensuring that they were not attached to dark matter.

These things are all newly built, and they use energy from a Level 5 civilization, so the preparations have been done to the extreme.

Their destination was about 100,000 light-years from their original location. This distance was insignificant to a Type 6 civilization; they could travel from one end of the Milky Way to the other in a single breath. However, the ships they were traveling on were equipped with only Type 5 civilization propulsion systems, making this a truly long-distance voyage.

If it were a normal level 5 civilization, it would be impossible to travel such a distance in one go; it would need to resupply along the way.

The reason for traveling 100,000 light-years is entirely due to the influence of dark matter. This is actually the bitter fruit of the two major long-range expeditions themselves. They sent out too many probes that went too far, and the power source for those probes was the annihilation of dark matter and dark antimatter. In other words, the places those probes had been to before are no longer suitable.

Combined with the information obtained from the rhombus crystal, the various civilizations finally found suitable locations.

Even with a Type 5 civilization's navigation technology, traveling 100,000 light-years at warp speed without stopping would take approximately 990 years.

Although the two major long-distance shipping organizations have been tinkering here for so many years, they still have some resources, enough for everyone to squander on the road.

time flies.

After arriving at their destinations, the civilizations resumed their full-scale research efforts. Of course, the first priority was to develop all the experimental equipment. The previous experimental facilities were too large to be moved with the power technology of a Level 5 civilization, so they had to be rebuilt once they arrived at their new locations.

This undoubtedly consumes a lot of resources, but no one has a choice. After all the equipment is completed, the experiments conducted previously under the dynamics of dark matter and dark antimatter annihilation must now be carried out again, since the methods used before were correct, only affected by environmental interference!

Maybe if you repeat it once, you'll find the right answer.

And this is another huge expense.

These are not necessary expenditures. Thanks to the Divine Cube civilization, the two large-scale expeditionary organizations are not so short of resources that they cannot restart the experiment, so it is not a big problem.

Of course, it didn't come to the point of squandering money recklessly.

Thus, the two great expeditionary organizations embarked on a new round of scientific research, measured in millennia and tens of thousands of years. However, as time went on, various experimental projects and ideas were continuously introduced, and then each civilization discovered a desperate problem: the energy technology of a Type 5 civilization was insufficient to support the conduct of certain experiments; the energy level was inadequate.

It's so hopeless, because if the correct answer happens to be hidden in these experiments, doesn't that mean we'll never find the right answer?

Isn't this a dead end? To find the answer, we must abandon the dark matter and dark antimatter energy system, but even if we abandon them, the energy levels we have are not enough to open the door to the correct answer.

Most importantly, as time went by, all the civilizations had done almost every experiment they could, except for those that couldn't be carried out due to insufficient energy levels. Even so, they still hadn't found the right answer.

Doesn't this mean we must break the "loop of despair"?
This is where the value of the information provided by the rhombus crystal becomes apparent, because its existence lets all civilizations know that there must be a way to bypass the "despair loop," otherwise the War Immortal civilization would not have been able to succeed.

Exploring when you know it's feasible versus exploring when you don't know it's feasible yields different results. The former often leads to going astray because they don't know they can do it, and then they perish in a state of self-loss. The latter has only one belief: they know they can definitely do it, they just haven't found the right method.

Thus, 100,000 years have passed.

For 100,000 years, 84 civilizations have still not found the right answer.

This gave the Awakeners' claim of "breaking through the limits of intelligence" a market. They believed that the War Immortal Civilization of that time must have broken through its own limits of intelligence to succeed without the interference of dark matter.

But these guys say that, yet they don't know how to break through the limits of intelligence.

As for their claims, the Divine Cube civilization believes that the so-called limit of wisdom is merely the definition of wisdom by different races. Perhaps some of our civilizations have already exceeded their own limits of wisdom in their current state, but we just don't know it.

Instead of getting involved in such vague and unrealistic things, we should continue to work hard. If the War Immortal Civilization succeeded, we can succeed too.

The failure over a hundred thousand years reminded everyone of the rhombus crystal's words. It had seen many large-scale expeditions arrive here; some were aware of the effects of their dark matter engines, while others were not, but none of them succeeded.

To practice this skill, one must first castrate oneself, but even then, success is not guaranteed.

The two major long-distance voyage organizations have reached the final four words: they must continue no matter what, there is no turning back.

Time can heal all wounds, but it can also turn things that weren't problems into problems.

As time went by, the resource problem, which was not originally an issue, gradually became apparent. The abundant resources brought to everyone by the technology of the Divine Ju civilization were gradually dwindling over time.
