Chapter 81 Ancient Battlefield

  No progress has been made on Lilian's home planet for the time being. Although the interstellar civilizations love the fleet, they dare not do things to deceive the Empire.

  The situation in the galaxy is still escalating, and the changes related to the "far traveler" are becoming more and more known.

  Different from the "Watcher", there is a civilization nearby in the territory of the Far Traveler.

  This civilization is called the "Kur Union". Although it sounds very serious, in fact, the old fritters of the galaxy prefer to call it a "criminal enterprise".

  Yes, this is a "universal enterprise" similar to Cribri, and their differences are also obvious. This enterprise mainly earns its income from industries in the gray area.

  Every civilization has more or less dark places, although these places can still be under the control of the government at the beginning, but if criminal enterprises are involved, the situation will be different.

  Criminal enterprises do not shy away from their actions. By infiltrating from the black and gray areas, they can directly conduct business on the colonies of other civilizations, or even on the home planet, without worrying about being sanctioned.

  Because darkness can never be wiped out, except for omnics and swarms.

   As for the Lost Empire, it's all utopian life there, and no one thinks anything of a criminal enterprise.

  But for ordinary civilization, this is very disgusting.

  Due to the funding of gray areas by criminal enterprises, many civilizations that have been murdered by them have a high crime rate, and have to spend a lot of manpower and material resources, and even compromise with criminal bosses, in exchange for temporary stability.

   And this is also the way of survival of criminal enterprises, and the foundation of their foothold in the galaxy.

  Even if a civilization temporarily gains peace through war, the criminal industry will make a comeback again in the near future.

   Therefore, no normal civilization has a good impression of criminal enterprises, and they can't wait to take their skin directly.

  The change of "Farwalker" has given hope to many civilizations, and each of them is praying that the great lost empire can expel this disgusting criminal world enterprise from the galactic stage.

  But among the directors of the Kool Federation, it was unexpectedly calm.

   "...I don't think everyone has any opinions."

   "It's natural, it's better to say that we have been waiting for this opportunity."

   "...doing business is the favorite thing of Huanyu Enterprise. We have never liked war. We can use commercial means to get rid of our opponents, why should we participate in these **** and cruel things?"

  All members of the board of directors have no objection. For them, they like to see other civilizations hate them and grit their teeth, but they dare not do anything to them.

  So at the moment when the "Farwalker" expanded, a message from the Kool Federation passed:

   "The great lost empire, we, the Kuer Federation, are willing to give up our sovereignty and become your vassal civilization. May we have a little bit of our strength on your road to revival."

  Yes, they surrendered directly, without any resistance or escape.

   But this is only a superficial phenomenon. Criminal enterprises have found a strong backer for themselves, so that their future business can continue as usual. At least they think so.

  The "Farwalkers" also readily accepted the support of the Kool Federation. In their eyes, whether it is a criminal enterprise or an ordinary enterprise, whether it is an ordinary civilization or an omnic civilization, they are all equally weak.

  No matter what their ideas are, they can't shake a hair of the lost empire.

   While the galactic civilizations were despising the behavior of the Kurdish Federation for surrendering without a fight, Li Wenyuan also came to a special galaxy—a galaxy full of wreckage from warships.

   "This place is..."

  When he first entered here, both he and Gray Wind showed expressions of surprise.

   It is hard to imagine what has been experienced here, but the "corpses" of these steel giants can almost illustrate the brutality of the battle here.

  His spaceship is even difficult to pass through the gaps, and even the light of the stars seems to be blocked by layers of obstacles, and cannot shine on the edge of the galaxy.

  And the planet here, like these warships, has become a piece of "wreckage".

   I don't know what caused the explosion to tear these planets apart, and there is not even a piece of intact planet fragments in the entire galaxy.

  Besides the fact that the star in the center is still proclaiming the power of life, this place is just like a "cosmic graveyard", and only "dead things" are left here.

   "...Is this also the trace left by humans?" Gray Wind always understood all the strange places as being related to humans, so he asked subconsciously.

   But Li Wenyuan was silent for a while, then slowly shook his head and said: "...No, this place has a high probability of not being related to humans..."

  He just passed by this galaxy, but he didn't expect such a terrifying scene here. Although the readings of the detection indicator showed no abnormalities, he almost subconsciously regarded this place as a human relic.

   But then, he felt familiar with the wreckage of these ships.

  Because he has studied the fleet configurations of other lost empires, he knows what the warships of several lost empires look like.

   And the wreckage here, even though a long time has passed, their characteristics still reveal their identity:

   "... here, it is likely to be the battlefield of 'Watcher' and 'Farwalker'."

  Li Wenyuan recognized the drifting fragments, and after simulating and combining them, he could tell that they were all warship styles of "Watcher" and "Farwalker".

  And there is nothing left here except for these warship wrecks. It only makes sense that they once broke out a big war here.

   "The battlefield? These lost empires, were they ever rivals?" Gray Wind asked curiously. After all, she has been in the "distant star gate" since birth, and even if the outside world is overthrown, it has nothing to do with her.

   "... not very clear, but..." Li Wenyuan thought of the holy place "Pure Treasure" that was inexplicably blown up.

   There was a conspiracy theory circulating in the galaxy. Some people believed that the "Watcher" deliberately blew up the Holy Land in order to find an excuse for his own revival.

  However, this conspiracy theory disappeared after the "far traveler" also changed. The Lost Empire didn't pay attention to what the outside world thought of them. They could do whatever they wanted without reason.

"... Judging from the situation here, the 'Watcher' and the 'Farwalker' were probably old enemies in ancient times. I can't even imagine how far it would have to be fought to have this kind of existence that seems to fill the galaxy. The wreckage of the…”

   "If this is the case, then the 'Pure Treasure'...could it be the 'far traveler' bombed?"

  Li Wenyuan did not continue to think about it, because the current "Watcher" and "Far Traveler" have both started the road of expansion, as if they want to regain their former glory.

  If they have always had an "ancient hatred" and "an ancient enemy", then this time the galaxy may suffer a greater impact.

   "...So is it the same for 'Observer' and 'Silencer'?" He thought of the other two lost empires, one was enthusiastic about the outside world, and the other was closed to himself.

  They also seem to be less able to get along well.

   "...'I', is it the same as them?" Li Wenyuan glanced at Gray Wind, and finally stopped guessing.

   "When did I become so confident...Aren't I a 'Lost Empire' in disguise?" He forced himself to comfort himself, but his tone was not so confident.

   After all, judging from various signs, the inheritance he inherited is really likely to be the "Lost Empire".
