Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones-Chapter 333: Super War

The unknown civilization, which claimed to belong to the Red Star Alliance but had not informed Tom of its name, remained silent for a moment, making no immediate reply. However, the spatial fluctuations that enveloped their fleet, seemingly indicating an imminent superluminal voyage, gradually dissipated.

A message was sent, but it was not a reply to Tom. Instead, it asked, "What is your civilization? Where are you from?"

This seemed to be an assessment of whether his side might possess intelligence they were interested in.

Tom thought for a moment and replied, "We are the Bluetoth Civilization, from the Gliese 625 solar system."

The Gliese 625 solar system was the solar system where the Bluetoth Civilization was originally located. Of course, what Tom sent at this moment was not just the name Gliese 625, but a series of coordinates, stellar characteristics, and surrounding star map data.

Through this data, the civilization before him, which was at least at the Gravity Civilization stage, would certainly be able to easily determine the coordinates.

"Gliese 625 solar system, huh... A distance of over 2,000 light-years is very, very far for you."

Tom also silently sighed in his heart.

Unbeknownst to him, more than ten thousand years had passed since he left the Solar System. He had traveled such a long distance, circling around.

"We can exchange some intelligence with your side.

The Silicon-Based Disaster can probably be considered a type of Parasitic Disaster, similar in nature to the famous Demonic Eye—you have already reached the Strong Nuclear Civilization stage, so you should have already passed the Demonic Eye Tribulation, right?"

Demonic Eye Tribulation? This was a completely new term, but it was relatively easy to understand.

Tom thought for a moment and understood.

For the nascent civilizations within the Milky Way, when their technology developed to a certain stage, they would inevitably discover the anomaly of the Demonic Eye Solar System, then observe the Demonic Eye Solar System, and then almost certainly experience a Demonic Eye parasitic event.

This was a tribulation for every civilization.

If they passed it, they could continue to develop. If they didn’t, they would be parasitized by the Demonic Eye and transformed into a Demonic Eye Civilization.

Calling it the Demonic Eye Tribulation was quite fitting.

"Yes, we have passed it."

"Demonic Eye Civilization parasitizes intelligent life forms themselves. The Silicon-Based Disaster, on the other hand, parasitizes the technological creations of intelligent civilizations.

Their targets are spaceships, warships, and so on."

Tom was slightly startled.

These things can be parasitized? These things don’t have life, how can they be parasitized?

"The Silicon-Based Disaster resembles a cosmic dust cloud, and it is difficult to distinguish it from ordinary dust by conventional means.

They possess only very low self-propulsion and cannot undertake interstellar travel on their own. They usually hide in a certain star field, waiting for the fleets of intelligent civilizations to pass by. Once a fleet passes, they will parasitize these technological creations.

The core of the Silicon-Based Disaster is similar to the neurons in an intelligent life’s brain; you can think of them as independent neural neurons.

After attaching to the technological creations of intelligent life, these different neurons will use the technological creations as a framework to establish connections, thereby becoming activated and acquiring a certain degree of intelligence.

This intelligence allows them to understand the operating principles of the technological creations they parasitize. Then, they will disrupt the communication links between these technological creations and their original systems, taking them for themselves, and then use their intelligence to control these technological creations. From an external perspective, it appears somewhat as if these technological creations have developed their own consciousness, as if they have ’come alive’."

Tom suddenly understood.

No wonder his warships had defected! No wonder when he destroyed one defecting warship, another immediately defected; it turned out they had switched their parasitic targets!

This form of existence is truly bizarre, no, eerie.

"The Silicon-Based Disaster’s own intelligence can also improve with the technological level of the parasitized creations.

A most rudimentary Silicon-Based Disaster might only be able to parasitize the technological creations of an electromagnetic civilization, but after parasitizing once, they will master the operating principles of electromagnetic civilization’s technological creations. With this foundation, the next time they encounter the technological creations of an Electroweak Civilization, they also have a chance to successfully parasitize.

In this way, the Silicon-Based Disaster can also continuously grow. If not eradicated in advance, its destructive power and lethality will continue to increase.

It is rumored that there are even Silicon-Based Disasters in our Milky Way that can parasitize Space Civilization, but whether it is true or not, we cannot confirm."

Space Civilization? I wonder what level of civilization this is?

The next stage after Strong Nuclear Civilization is Gravity Civilization, and this Space Civilization seems to be even higher than Gravity Civilization.

That must be a truly super civilization within this Milky Way... Even a super civilization can be parasitized; this Silicon-Based Disaster is indeed troublesome.

"Fortunately, the Silicon-Based Disaster you encountered this time was not of a high level, and we had ’High-Power Gravity Cluster Bombs’ specially prepared for us by a higher civilization. The Silicon-Based Disaster also happened to be entirely parasitizing your warships, which is why we were able to launch a single strike and eliminate them all.

Otherwise, even we would have had to go through much more trouble."

Tom, who had been somewhat vexed by his powerlessness in the face of the Silicon-Based Disaster, now felt only relief.

A higher civilization, more advanced than Gravity Civilization, had prepared "High-Power Gravity Cluster Bombs" for this Gravity Civilization to carry, allowing them to eliminate this Silicon-Based Disaster in one fell swoop.

He himself was only a Strong Nuclear Civilization, and the fact that he was able to endure for so long without being wiped out by this Silicon-Based Disaster was already quite impressive.

Tom comforted himself this way.

The message from the Gravity Civilization continued: "The danger of the Silicon-Based Disaster is undeniable; civilizations below Gravity Civilization level basically have no way to deal with it.

However... there are so many dangers in this universe, and this is just one of them.

As for the Red Star Alliance... I apologize, our side cannot disclose too much to your side.

However, regarding the fact that this star field will no longer be safe within the next few millennia, our side can reveal some information to your side. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Our Red Star Alliance is preparing for a war with a Space-level Demonic Eye Civilization, and the battlefield should be in this star field.

Interstellar wars of Space Civilization are extremely destructive. Even we, who have reached the Gravity Civilization level, or civilizations more advanced than us, who have reached the Dark Energy level, can only do some logistical material preparation work in this battlefield and cannot intervene at all.

If you are accidentally affected, the consequences are even worse.

It is our duty to participate. There is no need for you to get involved in this muddy water; it is better to leave early."
