Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 1497 Cosmic Membrane Broadcast

The fact that the Silverheart civilization has successfully mastered the means to strike the collapse of the world means that the long-distance fleet must continue its journey.

It's not that everyone stopped to wait for the Silver Heart Civilization, although waiting for them is one aspect. More importantly, there's no need for any of the civilizations to stay here any longer, because their current research here hasn't made much progress. They can't stay here indefinitely just for a few pieces of two-dimensional space.

Just as the various civilizations were setting sail, they unexpectedly received a broadcast from the cosmic membrane.

[The Returned Ones, KBC Void Region, 4th Cosmic Membrane Broadcast!]

[Broadcast area: KBC Void Region, including the Sloan Great Wall, Laniakea Supercluster, and other secondary superclusters in the universe.]

[Attention all civilizations within the KBC Void: What we are about to say may be of assistance to your survival. Please listen carefully.]

[Your ability to receive the cosmic membrane broadcast indicates that you are already a cosmic-level civilization. Whether you are a cosmic-level civilization born in the KBC void region or a civilization that came to this region from other cosmic regions, you should know the following information.]

[First, the KBC Void Region has been riddled with holes due to ancient wars. Coupled with natural cosmic catastrophes, various disasters have intertwined and ravaged this region, leaving very little normal spacetime. Rules such as fast worlds, quantum entanglement, and spatial dimensions have undergone tremendous changes.]

[The fast world is collapsing completely, and vacuum decay is occurring in multiple star systems, now spreading to vast areas. Spatial dimensions are rapidly decreasing, and its large-scale impact has already expanded to a range of hundreds of millions of light-years. The fourth phase transition, namely the electromagnetic phase transition, is also rapidly expanding. Soon, the entire KBC void will become a dead zone, no longer suitable for the survival of civilizations, including cosmic-level civilizations.]

[Now, we, the Returners, urge all civilizations in this area to leave as soon as possible. Civilizations near the Sloan Wall can use the Sloan Wall, where our Super Stargate is located. The specific star map coordinates are as follows.]

[Civilizations currently residing in the Laniakea Supercluster can travel via the Bootes Great Void route. We also have a super stargate there; the specific star map coordinates are as follows.]

Civilizations in the Murdora Supercluster can use the Sculptor Void route; the specific location information of our supergate there is as follows.

[Secondly, the universe is our common home. We have only one home, and every civilization should work together to protect it. However, it has been riddled with holes due to various disasters, just like the KBC Void Region where you are. Various cosmic catastrophes have spread like wildfire and cannot be stopped.]

[Cosmic civilizations should use their power cautiously, but with so many civilizations in the universe, we cannot restrain them all, leading to widespread cosmic catastrophes. However, cosmic civilizations remain a vital force for saving the universe; therefore, we suggest that you prioritize the greater good and cease using weapons that cause cosmic disasters.]

We reiterate that those who receive this broadcast should follow the route below to leave the KBC Void. The specific coordinates of the Supergate are as follows.

[Thirdly, given that the cosmic catastrophe of the KBC Void is no longer sustainable, in order to prevent the catastrophe zone from spreading to other regions of the universe, we will launch the Return to Nothingness Movement here!]

The general process of the Ruins Return Movement is as follows: In the future, we will launch an attack on all galaxies within the entire KBC Void region. All stars with mass within these galaxies will be turned into black holes under the attack. Afterward, we, the Ruins Returners, will restore the entire KBC Void region to Ruins.

[After the KBC Void is restored to its original state, it will become a supermassive black hole. At that time, all matter and all catastrophe zones will forever fall into the supermassive black hole, and all disasters that occur in this area will be restored to the original state.]

[But you don't need to worry, because black holes aren't scary; they don't signify the end of everything, but rather rebirth. You should know about the Return to Nothingness Project. The KBC Void region will become part of the Return to Nothingness Project. After we complete the Return to Nothingness of the KBC Void, we will return to the place of infinite fall and connect the infinite fall of the KBC Void, which has now become a supermassive black hole, with the infinite fall point of the primordial supermassive black hole.]

[At that time, we will use the KBC void, which has been reduced to nothingness, as an experiment for cosmic nothingness. We, the Nothingness Returners, will re-evolve it through a supermassive white hole. During this period, all cosmic-level civilizations belonging to our Nothingness Returner organization are welcome to participate and witness our nothingness return experiment.]

Alright, civilizations that hear this broadcast, please give the universe a chance, and also give your own civilization a chance to survive.

[To reiterate, the Returned Ones, KBC Void Region, 4th Cosmic Membrane Broadcast!]

The cosmic membrane broadcast from the Returning Ones was repeated three times.

This is the first time since humanity became a cosmic-level civilization that it has received a broadcast from a god-like civilization.

Upon receiving the broadcast message, Yue Yuan immediately compared the location of the super stargate in the broadcast message to see if it overlapped with the super stargate provided by the Star Defenders.

The results showed no overlap.

The stargates in the Star Defenders star map are not in the list of super stargates of the Returning to the Void.

In response, Yue Yuan addressed the Star Guardian with his long-standing question: "Whose super stargate is this? We've come this far, you can tell us now!"

"Damn it, didn't I already say? It's not that I didn't want to tell you, it's that I really didn't know. All I know is that there's a super stargate in the database that can cross to the outside of the KBC Great Void," Star Guardian replied.

"Alright." Seeing that he still insisted on the same thing and didn't seem to be lying, Yue Yuan gave up and continued, "Um... what do you think of the broadcast from the Returning Void?"

Star Guardian: "How can you interpret this? Isn't it obvious they're trying to get you to go through their stargate and join their camp? Are you out of your mind? Why are you asking me such a simple question?"

"..." Yue Yuan's lips twitched, thinking to himself: Of course I know. He breathed a sigh of relief, and after calming down, nodded, saying, "The Guixu people emphasized that they would conduct Guixu experiments, and they're broadcasting it so publicly. It seems they're about to start pushing forward with the Guixu project. But didn't the Jianbing Civilization say they would wait for the Dayan Civilization to return from measuring the universe before starting?"

Before he could finish speaking, the Star Defender said again, "The Simplified Civilization is just one civilization within the Ruins Returner Organization. How can they decide the actions of the Ruins Returners? Besides, you, Gou Bayueyuan, didn't you realize that this is the Ruins Returners' method of recruiting cosmic-level civilizations?"

Yue Yuan was used to the way the Starry Sky Defender spoke; this guy even cursed his own father, let alone himself.

With a calm mindset, Yue Yuan felt that what the Starry Sky Defender said made sense.

If there were no Star Guardians, the best option for human civilization, awakener civilization, galactic heart civilization, and Daya civilization after receiving such a broadcast would definitely be to obey the Ruins Returners and go through their super stargate.

While the super stargate of the Voidwalkers didn't explicitly state that joining the Voidwalkers organization was mandatory, the broadcast did mention that many cosmic-level civilizations abused their power, leading to the decay of the KBC Void. Following this line of thought, does that mean these cosmic-level civilizations should also restrain their power? And who should restrain them? The Voidwalkers, of course!

Furthermore, the Returning to the Void group emphasized the Returning to the Void experiment at this time, and stressed that it could be observed by cosmic-level civilizations. Isn't this tantamount to telling all cosmic-level civilizations that haven't yet joined the Returning to the Void group: I'm going to conduct an experiment here that can reveal the secrets of the universe's infinite safe deposit box, come quickly!

This is an opportunity to advance to a god-level civilization. Which cosmic-level civilization could resist the temptation?
Even the people of the Silver Heart, after hearing this broadcast, began to regret their escape.

But conversely, if advancing to a god-level civilization were so easy, there would be far more than just a few god-level civilizations in the universe.

In any case, there are only three known god-level civilizations: the Returners, the Rebooters, and the Great Evolution Civilization.

"Since we've made our choice, we won't regret it," the leader of the Silverheart Civilization said in the public channel. "Hmm, it seems the Voidwalkers have noticed the KBC Void. We'd better hurry up and leave!"

"Let's go, we can't stay here any longer, let's get out of the KBC Void first!" said the Awakener, Genya.

This place is indeed not suitable for lingering, because the god-level civilization is not only the Returners, but also the Restarters whose ideas are different from theirs.

Since the Returners have already focused their attention on the KBC Void and intend to conduct Returners Project experiments there, it seems that the Rebooters, with their different ideologies, have no reason not to pay attention.

What would the rebooters think?
Will they allow the Returners to conduct experiments here?
Would they think that the Void Returners' experiments are a waste of time and energy, only accelerating the decay of the cosmic vacuum and achieving nothing?

Thus, the Rebooters could potentially cause trouble while the Returners are conducting their Return experiments.

When two god-level civilizations clash here, this place will surely become a forbidden zone. If we don't leave quickly, we'll be "killed" by the aftershocks and there will be no one to complain to.

You must know that's a god-level civilization. Haven't you heard what the Ruins Reverters broadcast: they're going to put the entire KBC Void region into Ruins?

This is the KBC void, which is 20 billion light-years in diameter. Such a large area could be reduced to nothing so easily.

Even a glimpse of the whole picture reveals the power of a god-like civilization.

It wouldn't be good if we ended up as innocent bystanders.

“Let’s go!” Yue Yuan said solemnly.

With that, he ordered human civilization to set sail toward the super stargate 80 million light-years away.

As for the Four-Handed Serpent Civilization, Yue Yuan originally planned to leave it in the star field near the Super Stargate, since that area was deep within a void. However, now that the Returning Voiders broadcast the message, he had no choice but to do a good deed and take it outside the KBC void.

We can find them an empty space along the way.

Of course, it's best to stay away from the KBC Void area to avoid them suffering unnecessary harm.

And so, the four cosmic-level civilizations once again embarked on the vast void. The cosmic broadcast from the Returning Void accelerated their departure from the KBC Void and strengthened their determination to leave as soon as possible.

Similarly, it also dashed the hopes of some people within human civilization who wanted to return to the Milky Way.

Perhaps, from the moment we left Earth, humanity could never go back.

People realized that completing the great voyage through the Great Hollow of Boötes was not the end, nor was it time to return home in glory; rather, it was time to continue the voyage.
