Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones-Chapter 308: Setting Sail

Purple Moon Civilization!

Tom clearly remembers that back then, Electric Disaster and its kind suffered terribly in the test site of Purple Moon Civilization, and only managed to escape thanks to the sacrifice of their predecessors.

It was the Purple Moon Civilization that instilled in Electric Disaster a deep-seated hostility towards orthodox intelligent civilizations.

At this moment, there are still some human survivors in the Purple Moon Civilization, and... they are being treated as pets and rare animals by the Purple Moon!

An uncontrollable surge of anger welled up within Tom.

To lose the dignity of being an intelligent being, to become a pet, or to be exhibited like a rare animal for the amusement of the Purple Moons—this is the greatest insult to humanity.

That Purple Moon Civilization is already asking for thier death!

The most crucial point is that the Human Civilization perished for some reason, and after its demise, all traces of its existence were erased. In this process, what role did the Purple Moon Civilization play?

Why are there human survivors in their civilization?

If I can defeat and capture the Purple Moon Civilization, perhaps the truth behind humanity’s extinction can be revealed.

Only...

Electric Disaster once commented that it was relatively weak compared to Purple Moon Civilization.

The Havilah Civilization also had brief contact with the Purple Moon Civilization. The Electric Disaster was "stolen" by the Havilah Civilization from the Purple Moon Civilization’s testing grounds, and the Havilah Civilization never dared to let its main fleet appear in front of the Purple Moon Civilization.

In that case... the Purple Moon Civilization’s technological level is at least at the peak of the Strong Nuclear Civilization, and it may even have surpassed Strong Nuclear and entered the next stage!

More than a thousand years have passed since the Havilah Civilization’s contact with the Purple Moon Civilization. If they were originally at the peak of Strong Nuclear power, it’s possible they could have broken through to become a Gravity Civilization.

Putting aside their strength for the moment, there is another important issue.

Where are they?

Tom quickly flipped through the records about the Purple Moon Civilization in the Havilah Civilization.

There isn’t much information available, only that "at a distance of about 4 light-years, the Purple Moon Fleet was observed to launch its tail flame, then sailed 16 degrees away from the Galactic Core before disappearing."

According to data obtained by Havilah Civilization through observation of the tail flames, the overall speed of the Purple Moon Civilization fleet is likely as high as 90% of the speed of light.

This speed further confirms Tom’s assessment of the Purple Moon Civilization. The assessment of the peak of Strong Nuclear.

Such a powerful civilization... Let’s take them down!

Tom immediately made up his mind.

So what if it’s the pinnacle of Strong Nuclear? Or even a Gravity Civilization? Given time, I’ll surely reach that stage too!

Gazing at the myriad stars in the vast deep space, Tom remained silent.

No more messages were being transmitted from that long-range communication device. Clearly, Recorder Civilization believed that the previous message had negated the intelligence they had provided.

Unless new, high-value intelligence emerges, it’s impossible for me to obtain any further information about the Purple Moon Civilization from the Recorder Civilization.

"At the speed of the Purple Moon Civilization fleet, more than 1,600 years have passed by now. If they continue sailing, they have traveled at least 1,400 light-years."

Are they heading 16 degrees off from the Galactic Core...?

Let’s continue tracking this direction for now. While we’re tracking, we’ll also develop technology and increase our strength!

Before that, however, I need to make some repairs, fix the damaged warships, replenish the clone fleet, and prepare some supplies for the journey.

This means another round of large-scale construction.

However, the Lyra G16 Solar System is clearly not suitable for staying for any longer.

The reason is simple: the previous battle with the Havilah-Mechanical Disaster Alliance caused a huge uproar.

It involved bombing stars and using Stellar Cannons.

It was as conspicuous as lighting a campfire in the dark wilderness. If other civilizations or natural disasters existed around the Lyra G16 Solar System, and they were interested in intelligent civilizations, they might already be on their way.

Tom didn’t want to cause any more trouble.

"Let’s pack up quickly, stock up on some supplies, and leave Lyra G16 first. Then we can find another solar system to properly regroup."

The industrial system is already in place, and it won’t take long to produce enough supplies to support an interstellar voyage.

Just four years later, the necessary supplies were ready. Thus, this massive fleet embarked on its voyage away from the Lyra G16 Solar System.

Compared to before, this fleet was much more mixed. It included not only Tom’s own aerospace carrier and various other ships, but also some Havilah Civilization and Black Mountain Civilization’s habitation ships and aerospace carriers.

Many of the spaceships were covered in damage and had not been repaired in time.

Gazing at the hydrogen bomb lights erupting from the various planets, Tom steered the fleet slowly into sail, his heart filled with emotion.

He still remembered the humiliation he felt when he was forced into this solar system hundreds of years ago, the crisis that the Havilah Civilization brought him, and the constant fear he felt while being pursued by the Mechanical Disaster.

Thankfully, thankfully, all of that is in the past. At this moment, I have finally won this battle and ushered in a new life.

What awaits us in the future is a vast universe.

Goodbye, goodbye...

Lyra G16, still in a frenzy, gradually dimmed and eventually became an ordinary star in the night sky.

Tom’s fleet has truly entered the starry sky, rapidly advancing towards a star 16.7 light-years away.

I expect to arrive there in 30 years. At that time, I will be able to begin a formal overhaul and truly elevate the fleet’s strength to its peak.

Time passed quietly, and the more than 20 billion Viller People gradually settled down, fully accepting their current fate, and began to try to carry out some of the tasks issued by Tom.

The slaves of the 19 races rescued from the Black Mountain Civilization have finally recovered from their previous numb, wooden state.

Compared to the Viller People, these slaves were clearly more loyal and obedient to Tom, who had rescued them and given them a new life.

Among these cases, Tom confirmed that slaves from 18 different races were captured and enslaved after their civilizations were exterminated by the Mechanical Disaster.

However, the situation is different for one civilization from the "Yunluo Civilization" that Tom classified as belonging to the Yunluo ethnic group.

According to them, when facing the Black Mountain Civilization, the Yunluo Civilization suffered heavy losses but was not wiped out; instead, it managed to escape.

At the time, the Black Mountain Civilization also suffered significant damage and was unable to launch an effective pursuit, forced to watch helplessly as the Yunluo Civilization’s main fleet escaped. Even today, the Yunluo Civilization may still exist.

In response, Tom made a commitment.

"The universe is too vast, and we Human Civilization have our own missions,we can’t go out of our way to find traces of Yunluo Civilization for you.

But I promise you, if you work diligently and make sufficient contributions to humanity, and if one day we do encounter the Yunluo Civilization, then I will send you back to our mother civilization as long as they are not hostile"
