Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 1520 Target Discovered
With the Voidwalkers taking action, the Great Void of KBC is bound to be destroyed.

With the help of the author of "Return to the Void," one can imagine what the KBC Great Void will become. It will become a true void, a large void with a diameter of 20 to 30 billion light-years. This large void may contain only black holes, or it may contain nothing at all.

If the Return to Nothingness experiment is indeed completed, then there will most likely be no supermassive black hole, but rather a supermassive white hole. It's just unknown in what form the vent of the supermassive white hole will exist; perhaps it will be in normal space, or perhaps it will exist somewhere in an unknown form.

Right now, perhaps only those who have returned to the void know what exactly is going on.

Nevertheless, those civilizations that came with the simplified civilization were still working hard to prepare, because the secret of the Infinite Safe was indeed attractive, and they all wanted to take this opportunity to become the new god-level civilization.

The KBC Void has many interiors, and preparations cannot be completed overnight.

While this civilization was wreaking havoc on the KBC Great Void, the Great Wall of the Guishui Galaxy, billions of light-years away, also welcomed new guests.

It was a massive fleet consisting of billions of warships, each with its own distinct construction characteristics, clearly not belonging to the same civilization.

If you look closely, you can see that they have a total of ten fleets, belonging to ten civilizations, with a total of 14 billion warships.

Each warship was small, only about 5 to 10 kilometers long, but they were not warships of a low-level civilization, but were all Nebula-class warships.

This number is small even for a Type VI or Type V civilization, but in this vast cosmic environment, a cosmic civilization would possess approximately one to two billion nebula-class warships.

Of course, without any restrictions, the number of space-class civilization warships could expand indefinitely, but civilizations that did so all disappeared.

The reason is obvious: they didn't understand the universe, which led to their civilization becoming too large, attracting the attention of a god-level civilization, and then they disappeared.

In fact, even if such an infinitely expanding civilization were not destroyed by a god-level civilization, it would still be met with a devastating blow from radical contract factions like the Triangular Civilization.

The four civilizations of Humanity, Daya, Silver Heart, and the Awakeners knew this, which is why they limited the number of their warships. Of the first three civilizations, apart from the Silver Heart civilization which suffered significant losses in its previous war with the Triangular Civilization, they currently possess approximately one billion Nebula-class warships.

The Awakener civilization is quite unique; they have two billion warships, but their population is only two billion.

It is worth mentioning that the original human and Daya civilization initially only had 500 million Nebula-class warships plus another 500-600 million warships, totaling just over one billion.

However, as time went on, everyone's fleet structure gradually changed.

As far as the Daya civilization is concerned, all of their ships are now Nebula-class, with a main force of 10.1 billion ships, and less than a million of the remaining engineering, factory, and residential ships.

Since these ships are all created using space folding technology, a million is actually quite a large number. As for other types of exploration ships, they are generally carried aboard Nebula-class warships.

Human civilization has even fewer capital ships, only 800 million, and fewer than a million other types of ships, which are negligible compared to the number of capital ships.

Because of the strength of the Dream Lyra, under normal circumstances, the Nebula-class capital ships of human civilization are protecting their own civilization's residential spaceship clusters.

Of course, judging solely by appearance, it's impossible to distinguish between warships and habitation ships, as human civilization has made them all look alike—all resembling warships. This design is clearly intended to prevent the enemy from identifying one's habitation ship, thus avoiding being targeted.

In fact, those old guys from the Galactic Heart Civilization had already done this a long time ago. Human civilization and the Daya civilization also adopted their ideas after their technology matured.

These were all fleet reorganizations carried out by several civilizations during their next long voyage after reaching the middle section of the Great Wall in the Guishui system.

That said, after the 14 billion warships arrived at the Guishui Great Wall, they split into ten formations, each about 100,000 light-years apart.

After that, the fleets paused briefly in the void, as if conducting some kind of reconnaissance, before speeding off toward the location of the humans, Daya, Silverheart, and the Awakener.

Logically speaking, a cosmic civilization shouldn't have such a long detection range, yet they found it with remarkable accuracy, even calculating their speed and direction during their journey, just in time to encounter the four civilizations: humans, the Daya, and the Galactic Awakeners.

So, about a thousand years later...

While Yue Yuan was leisurely sailing, he suddenly received a message from the Silver Heart Civilization.

The message was very brief: [Warning! Unknown civilization fleet detected!]

It must be said that the Galactic Heart Civilization's detection capabilities are truly impressive. After obtaining their shared detection information, Yue Yuan discovered that the unknown civilization fleet they had targeted was actually 100,000 light-years away.

Of course, at such a great distance, the Galactic Heart civilization could not scan the construction characteristics of the enemy's warships. They could only make a comprehensive judgment based on multiple factors such as warp speed traces, spatial fluctuations, and vacuum zero-point energy reactions.

Generally, their judgments are very accurate, so during the voyage, the detection and early warning of the Great Voyage Organization are usually entrusted to them.

The Silver Heart Civilization acted very quickly. By the time Yue Yuan received their message, their fleet had already dispersed and sent instructions to the exploration ship squadron at the front of the main fleet, ordering them to enter space and sail ahead to carefully investigate the situation of the unknown civilization.

As for the main fleets of the four civilizations, they immediately slowed down, reducing their speed from 2770 times the speed of light to about 2000 times.

The reason for doing this is that the location of the unknown civilization's fleet is on the fleet's flight path, and of course, it is also to allow enough reaction time after receiving intelligence from the Galactic Heart civilization.

100,000 light-years is a long distance; even at the current warp speed of the Great Voyage Organization, it would take 36 years to travel that distance. However, that only applies to normal warp speed travel. The four civilizations travel at normal warp speeds during their regular interstellar voyages, but that does not mean they will continue to travel at normal warp speeds under special circumstances.

For example, the Dream Lyra and the Justice Galaxy, once they activate their respective "teleportation" technologies, are only a hundred thousand light-years away.

Of course, during normal navigation, the two flagships did not use this method of travel in order to keep pace with the main fleet.

In reality, with the current technology of human civilization and the Galactic Center civilization, if they weren't worried about putting all their eggs in one basket, concentrating the entire civilization on a single warship would result in a much, much faster travel speed.
