Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 340 Cosmic Broadcast
"Your civilization is only at the advanced nuclear stage, yet its industrial strength is already so enormous?"
I had some reservations about whether I could secure your membership in the alliance. But given your outstanding performance, I'm confident this can be accomplished.

Your Excellency, are you really not considering joining the Crimson Star Alliance?

Li Qingsong sighed, somewhat reluctantly and regretfully declining again: "Let's wait until the time is right in the future. At that time, I hope your civilization can provide some assistance to us."

In this way, more than a decade passed quickly, and a dim star reappeared in the distant depths of the starry sky, before rapidly brightening.

That was a passenger fleet dispatched from the Yunluo civilization's homeland, and it was slowing down at the moment.

At this moment, Li Qingsong already knew that faster-than-light travel was impossible near massive celestial bodies such as those inside star systems. This seemed to be related to certain factors such as the curvature of space, but Li Qingsong was not quite sure why.

These Yunluo fleets could only enter the star system using conventional navigation methods.

Before long, the massive passenger fleet entered the star system. Furthermore, the Yunluo civilization dispatched a delegation led by its vice-head, fully expressing the importance they attached to this matter and their gratitude to Li Qingsong.

After a series of ceremonies and celebrations, the handover was finally completed. All of the more than 60 billion Yunluo people entered their own civilization's residential spaceships. After the original 3000-plus residential spaceships were returned to Li Qingsong, the vice president, along with Wei Luo and others, came to the conference room again to meet with Li Qingsong.

"We have found the information about the Purple Moon Civilization that you requested by querying the Crimson Star Alliance's 'Space Fluctuation Detection Network' and using a space-level supercomputer for searching."

Currently, the Purple Moon civilization fleet should be located in this star system with a radius of approximately 100 light-years. Furthermore, space supercomputing predicts that there is about a 79% probability that the Purple Moon civilization fleet will dock here.

The vice president pointed his hand at an ordinary white star.

That place is about 500 light-years away from Li Qingsong at this moment, and about 400 to 500 light-years away from the Purple Moon Civilization Fleet.

Based on the speed of both fleets, if the Purple Moon civilization really does stop there, I can reach that star system about 70 to 180 years after it enters the star system.

Li Qingsong's heart was instantly filled with solemnity, but also with a sense of excitement.

After more than a thousand years of pursuit, has the enemy's whereabouts finally been confirmed with a high probability...?

Even if the other party has already left by the time I arrive at that star system, or if the prediction is wrong and the other party did not stop in that star system at all, the prediction will not be too far off. A search of the surrounding star systems will most likely find some clues, enough to support the next tracking.

In any case, he was now closer to the Purple Moon Civilization than ever before.

Although he didn't know what the so-called space fluctuation detection network and space supercomputer were, Li Qingsong knew that using these two systems would inevitably mean a huge price for the Yunluo civilization.

It is likely that only by employing the technology of a space-level civilization could a fleet be located in this vast void.

Li Qingsong manipulated the clone of the leader to stand up and said solemnly, "Vice-Head of State, Lord Willo, thank you for your help."

The Vice President smiled and said, "I should be thanking you. You may not know that when the news of these lost souls being found reached back to civilization, the President was so excited that he didn't sleep for three whole days, and hundreds of billions of people within civilization were eagerly awaiting their return."

This matter has truly resolved a huge knot in our civilization's heart; we cannot thank you enough. Furthermore… in accordance with the Head of State's instructions and the unanimous expectations of hundreds of billions of people throughout civilization, I have brought you something else with me this time.”

Under Li Qingsong's watchful gaze, the Vice President solemnly took out a box and opened it.

A square device, entirely covered in an unknown silver-white material, with only one button on it, appeared before Li Qingsong.

In addition, there is a small, chip-like object.

"This is a gravitational wave communication device."

It has only one function. That is, when your civilization faces an insurmountable life-or-death crisis, you can press this button. Afterwards, it will broadcast its coordinates to the entire universe via gravitational waves, indicating its location.

Upon receiving this message, our civilization will be aware that your civilization has perished, along with the location of its destruction. At that time, we will either dispatch our own fleet or use Alliance Points to exchange for a high-level civilization fleet to travel to the location of your civilization's destruction and investigate the cause of its demise.

If the cause was other civilizations or natural disasters, we will use all our strength, including but not limited to dispatching fleets and exchanging resources with higher-level civilizations, to fight to the death and annihilate the civilization that destroyed you, to avenge you.

Li Qingsong has not yet mastered gravitational wave communication technology. This is clearly something only a gravitational civilization could master.

Even though they haven't reached the gravitational level yet, Li Qingsong has already done a lot of research on gravitational waves. He knows that gravitational wave signals are arguably the most difficult signals to attenuate, intercept, and interfere with in the universe.

The penetrating power is already formidable. Even neutrinos, which have an extremely low probability of colliding with external particles, can penetrate the entire sun. In the face of gravitons, they are completely insignificant.

Even if the entire observable universe were filled with a steel plate, the gravitational wave signal would only be slightly attenuated after penetrating this steel plate, which is more than 900 billion light-years thick.

It can be said that once this gravitational wave signal is emitted, no matter where they are or where the Yunluo civilization is, as long as the gravitational wave signal is given enough time to travel, they will always be able to receive it.

Li Qingsong knew that this was the limit that the Yunluo civilization could achieve.

The universe is vast, and even space civilizations cannot teleport to a certain location instantly to provide assistance.

It's already quite good that they were able to avenge their own side after their own side was destroyed.

"Thank you, Your Excellency Vice President. However... wouldn't transferring gravitational wave communication equipment to a nuclear-powered civilization violate your regulations?"

The vice president smiled and shook his head again: "It is only for one use, and once it is violently destroyed, its internal parts will be damaged immediately. It has no other functions besides this one, so it does not violate the regulations."

However, this equipment isn't the main point; the main point is this.

He carefully placed the small chip on the conference table and pushed it in front of Li Qingsong.
