Cataclysmic Era: I can unlock the tech tree

It's probably not just about [time].

In this extremely brief "small-scale conflict," a large number of dimensional beings also perished!

Conservative estimates suggest that only a few lucky one-dimensional and two-dimensional creatures successfully escaped the core area of ​​Andromeda.

[Silk] increasingly found it hard to believe her own guess.

The sanitation workers and the pastoral civilization are sworn enemies; their friction and disputes have persisted for an unknown period of time, but...

This is the first time that such heavy casualties have occurred between the two sides in a small-scale conflict!

One after another, wide-area radio broadcasts came from infinity. [Silk] subconsciously read the broadcast sent by a member of the pastoral faction.

[The Laniakea Supercluster branch, the Virgo Cluster galaxy within the Milky Way, has been breached; the Ring Cosmic Accelerator node has been successfully destroyed.]

[The Laniakea Supercluster branch, specifically the Large Magellanic Cloud in the Virgo Cluster, has been breached.]

【…】

These are battle reports covering the entire Laniakea Supercluster!

While the large galaxies are still locked in a stalemate, the smaller galaxies have been completely conquered by the pastoral faction!

As Si read through the radio broadcasts, the sadness in her heart gradually subsided.

It steadied itself and sent an encrypted wide-area tachyon broadcast into the infinitely distant starry sky.

[The Andromeda Galaxy in the Virgo Cluster of the Laniakea Supercluster has been conquered!]

The pastoral faction has won a great victory!

Although this great victory is based on the life of a large number of dimensional beings, it will undoubtedly greatly delay the Cleaners civilization's cosmic acceleration plan!

The moment the broadcast was broadcast, [Silk] didn't hesitate and immediately burrowed into the blue giant star in front of her.

This young, fiery star is dimming at a visible rate.

Although it has the ability to extract zero-point energy from the vacuum, in this case, directly extracting energy from stars is undoubtedly faster and more convenient.

The long threads were slowly pulled away from the dim planet and disappeared into the visible universe with a strong spacetime fluctuation.

It needs to repair its core as soon as possible.

Go catch up with that human civilization that's disguised as the Enroget civilization!

Their development speed is too fast!

The speed was so fast that a sense of unease crept into [Silk's] heart!

It had a premonition.

Although human civilization is currently only a small level seven civilization, if it is allowed to continue developing, the pastoral faction's "Annihilation Plan" may be affected by unpredictable consequences!

【Silk】is not the kind of reckless person who acts alone.

After recovering somewhat, [Silk] directly broadcast the situation of human civilization in the form of wide-area tachyon broadcast.

……

The giant attractor region of the Laniakea supercluster.

A vast array of technological creations hovered silently in this dangerous area with its complex and intertwined gravity.

This is a magnificent building composed of countless spherical and hemispherical structures.

The silver-white building covered an entire expanse of space spanning over a thousand light-years.

Small, planetary-sized warships are docked on its surface.

Upon closer inspection, the neutron fortress located in the Andromeda Galaxy is merely the core of its forces.

Quark Fortress, or perhaps Black Hole Fortress, is the high-end combat force here!

As for the White Dwarf Fortress...

That's practically equivalent to cannon fodder.

To withstand the extreme environment near the Great Attractor, this magnificent building even adopted a dense quark structure as its material!

Under advanced technological control, this astonishingly massive structure showed no signs of collapsing into a supermassive black hole. Instead, it remained steadily and quietly existing in this extremely dense super-attractor region.

The Cleaners, Laniakea Supercluster Division.

Its main task is to coordinate and manage the Ring Cosmic Accelerator Nodes throughout the Laniakea Supercluster, and to defend against the invasion and sabotage of the Pastoralists.

At this moment, the Laniakea Supercluster branch was extremely busy.

Amidst fluctuations in spacetime, numerous planetary fortresses rose and fell upon it.

The atmosphere inside the building is more tense than the outside.

"Andromeda has fallen! Nodes are out of service!"

"The Milky Way has fallen!"

"..."

As reports came in, a feather-like structure on the edge of the massive light screen flickered with tiny red lights.

The main area is not in danger, and the situation is not particularly serious.

But this is already the greatest loss the Cleaners civilization has suffered in nearly a million years!

Countless ring-universe accelerator nodes have been destroyed, which will significantly delay the mother civilization's acceleration plan!

"Damn pastoralism!"

The head of the Laniakea Supercluster branch of the Cleaners angrily waved his tentacles.

"Continue to send reinforcements!"

"Let these parasites of the countryside know the power of the cleaners!"

"[Asia], calm down. Protecting the main node is our priority." A voice reminded us from the side. "Branch nodes can be rebuilt quickly. As long as it doesn't affect the main node, the mother civilization won't care too much."

[Ya] The pale blue skin gradually returned to a light blue color, and the tentacles that had been waving in the air slowly drooped down.

"you're right."

"Let Quark Fortress and Black Hole Fortress protect the main node."

"The neutron fortress is to support the branch node; we must end this chaotic battle as soon as possible."

"The construction of the Ring Universe Accelerator is more than 99% complete, and the Mother Civilization will soon order its activation."

"Once our mother civilization successfully advances to level nine, we'll settle this score with the 'pastoral faction'!"

……

1800 years later, in the year 13500 of the Earth calendar.

With a familiar buzzing sound, Lü Yongchang slowly opened his eyes.

After several improvements and developments, hibernation technology has become increasingly sophisticated.

The original pale yellow hibernation fluid was replaced by a milky white mist, and the "cabin cough" phenomenon commonly seen in hibernators became a thing of the past.

After a brief moment of confusion, his eyes quickly regained their focus.

"Zero, have we arrived?"

A synthesized electronic voice followed, and a holographic projection automatically appeared in front of him: "Yes, Professor."

"The fleet is about to arrive in the M87 system and is currently carrying out the first batch of awakening operations."

Lü Yongchang quickly got up from the hibernation pod and walked towards the porthole.

Outside the porthole, the M87 galaxy had become incredibly clear.

That was a gigantic galaxy several times larger than the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy!

Unlike the Milky Way, which is a disk-shaped spiral galaxy, M87 is a giant elliptical galaxy.

It has almost no special shape.

To the naked eye, the M87 galaxy appears more like a giant cluster of light composed of countless stars.

The closer you go in, the higher the density of stars, and the brighter the cluster of light becomes.

At the center of the M87 galaxy, there is a massive quasar structure with two high-energy plasma jets extending 4900 light-years outward, constantly spewing out massive amounts of matter.
