Cataclysmic Era: I can unlock the tech tree

"General, the communication connection has been successfully established!"

The voices of the crew interrupted Corey's recollection.

It looked at the incredibly bright screen and squinted its eyes slightly.

It hates the environment in the picture.

But it prefers the delicate, intelligent creatures in the picture.

Its smooth skin, devoid of any scales or hair, subconsciously reminded it of a luxurious delicacy from its home planet.

The feeling of taking a bite...

hiss!

A stream of highly acidic digestive juice immediately flowed from Kore's mouth.

[Eugene Civilization, is there anything else?]

The intelligent being in the picture asked impatiently.

Kore swallowed the digestive juices in his mouth and asked with feigned respect, "Respected human civilization, the seven days have passed. May I ask you to withdraw the protective measures against the Talodan civilization?"

[Eugene Civilization, this is an internal matter of human civilization; you don't need to concern yourselves with it.]

The human in the video spoke a little louder: "Haven't you learned your lesson yet?!"

Corey's vertical pupils contracted sharply, and the muscles in his body tensed up involuntarily.

"Our emperor has declared war on the Talodan civilization. The eleven fleets present here are only a small part of the Eugene civilization's armed forces. More and stronger fleets will be sent to this battlefield in the future."

"Therefore, I hope you will carefully consider whether it is necessary for a small, level-three civilization to..."

Can I interpret this as a threat?

A human voice came through the loudspeaker: "Don't forget, you're nothing more than an ant-like Type III civilization."

The Talodan civilization has become a member of the Pan-Human Federation of the Galactic Empire, and will continue to receive the protection of human civilization.

[If you're not afraid of death, you're welcome to continue attacking the Talodan civilization.]

"General, communications have been cut off."

The crew member whispered a reminder to Kore, who was standing there in a daze.

"The Milky Way... the Pan-Human Federation?" Corey stood there blankly, pondering the meaning of this unfamiliar term.

"Isn't this just a subordinate civilization!?"

"That damned, cunning Talodan civilization! They actually chose to become a subordinate civilization to human civilization!"

Upon realizing what was happening, Corey's expression instantly turned ugly.

"General, our fleet still needs..." the crew member asked again.

"Retreat!" Corey roared. "Retreat immediately!"

"Cease all combat operations! Simultaneously report this information to the mothership!"

The situation has completely changed.

Previously, the Talodan civilization was just a single level three civilization, and Kore could have chosen to launch a forced attack and seize a few Talodan warships from human civilization.

In this way, he completed his mission and brought honor to the Eugene civilization—seizing spoils from the fleet of a Level 5 civilization!

This title is enough to elevate his status in the Eugene civilization to another level!

He could gamble that human civilization wouldn't risk provoking an annoying space pirate civilization for the sake of a Type III civilization's life or death.

After all, who would care about a fight between two ants on the roadside?

But now the situation is completely different!

That is a civilization subordinate to human civilization!

To attack a subordinate civilization is tantamount to declaring war on human civilization!

Kore swallowed hard, asking himself what choice he would make if the Eugene civilization were in such a situation.

The answer is obvious.

The moment he understood the situation, a chill ran down his spine.

"retreat!"

"All Eugene battleships, retreat at full speed!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a burst of intense explosions and flames appeared in the fleet around him.

The orange-yellow vertical pupils had shrunk to a straight line.

In the next instant, the blazing flames devoured it completely.

……

Human fleet.

Bai Yixuan coldly cut off the communication.

He slowly rose from his chair, squinting at the holographic projection in front of him.

"Professor Lü's judgment was correct."

"The Eugene civilization is definitely not a benevolent force!"

Without the slightest hesitation, he said directly, "Pass on my orders!"

"Target locked on all enemy warships."

The moment the words were spoken, the azure holographic projection instantly turned blood red, and at the same time, a series of piercing alarms sounded throughout all the warships.

The expeditionary fleet, which had already entered a state of first-level combat readiness, completed the target locking mission immediately—every cannon was pointed at a warship of the Eugene civilization.

"Weapon switched to warp missile."

"Three seconds later, the fleet fires in unison!"

"3, 2,1..."

"Fire!"

War broke out without any warning!

The faint light of the missile launch flashed across the vast universe, and the antimatter engine propelled them rapidly away from the warship.

next second.

The warp drive has been activated.

Tens of thousands of warp drive missiles vanished from the visible universe in that instant!

Only the powerful gamma-ray fluctuations and rapidly receding spacetime fluctuations left behind can prove their existence.

……

The warp missiles, exceeding the speed of light, scattered under Zero's control, each firmly locking onto its target.

It didn't take them long to catch up with the fleet.

As it approached the target warship, the missile broke free of its warp.

This is to ensure the accuracy of the attack.

Because the missile's flight time is relatively short, the particle accumulation effect caused by the warp drive is not severe.

However, it was still enough to inflict some damage on these dilapidated spaceships of Type III civilizations.

The flash of light indicating the magnetic shield overload was fleeting, and in an instant, the Eugene civilization's fleet lost its most important means of protection.

Driven by the full force of the antimatter engine, the missile hurtled toward the target warship with lightning speed!

These warp missiles attacked the target warships almost simultaneously.

Using warp missiles to attack the fleet of a Type III civilization is, in a sense, a huge waste.

But this also fulfilled Lü Yongchang's request—to give Eugene Wenming no time to react.

Before the lizardmen could react, the missile had already struck the outer armor of the warship.

The missile, loaded with antimatter, was detonated.

The energy generated by the annihilation of matter and antimatter violently tore through the warship's armor and instantly melted the intelligent life inside!

Accompanied by a ring of dazzling fireworks a hundred million kilometers away, the eleven fleets of the Eugene civilization were utterly annihilated at that moment!

P.S.: I'd also like to recommend two books written by a friend~

The first book, *The Young Swordsman's Journey: Starting as the Sword God Li Chungang*, is a fan fiction. The protagonist transmigrates to the world of *The Young Swordsman's Journey* and obtains a god-level role-playing system!

The second book, *Genesis: No Land, Yet Heard of the Revival of Spiritual Energy*, is a novel about universal creation. Everyone can become a creator; the protagonist obtains a simulator system to deduce the development of planets and the evolution of civilizations!

Those who are interested can take a look.
