As soon as these words came out, Quintessa felt like she was struck by lightning.

"How can it be?"

"Why are you moving forward so fast?"

Quintessa was extremely surprised, because the Creator civilization set out less than ten thousand years ago, and the distance between the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy exceeds 1.2 million light years.

This means that the movement speed of the Creator civilization reaches more than sixty times the speed of light!

Quintessa's own moving speed - without considering the space gate, which is not suitable for long-distance movement, is less than ten times the speed of light.

"We discovered a special material on the way to the Andromeda Galaxy. This material helped us complete a technological explosion." The voice coming from the symbol was very peaceful, mixed with some emotion.

"The Milky Way is just a small part of the universe."

"There's a much bigger world out there."

"We're also discovering remnants of civilizations older than ours on our way to the Andromeda Galaxy, and in more ways than one style."

"You should understand what this means."

"The Milky Way has given birth to more than one powerful civilization before us."

"They all left the Milky Way in the end and never came back. I don't know whether they went to more distant galaxies or died halfway."

The voice in the symbol became a little melancholy.

"That's enough!" Quintessa interrupted the voice, she said angrily, "You have a technological explosion, why don't you update my database simultaneously?"

After the creator civilization left, there was no news.

If she had not asked for help from the Creator Civilization this time, and the Creator Civilization happened to be within the range of the distress signal and did not deviate from the planned route, I am afraid there would never be any contact between them.

The advanced technology of the Creator's civilization has nothing to do with her.

"If I could master the movement method at sixty times the speed of light, I would go with you!" Quintessa said angrily, "I won't be imprisoned by humans now!"

The reason why she refused to go to the Andromeda Galaxy with the Creator Civilization was because the Creator Civilization moved too slowly.

The Creator's civilization was only moving at ten times the speed of light at that time, and it would take a full hundred thousand years to cross the dead starry sky of 1.2 million light-years at such a low moving speed. This was assuming no accidents occurred.

She couldn't stand the loneliness for that long.

Moreover, the space between the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy is appallingly empty. If something unexpected happens along the way, it will cause the sky and the earth to become inoperable!

Because there is not even a single star on this hopelessly long road to the stars, only some extremely barren and rare asteroids.

Once the fleet has an accident midway, there will be no place to replenish energy and supplies, and it will eventually become a whale stranded on a dry beach, waiting for death in despair!

"Sorry, Quintessa."

The voice in the symbol apologized to Quintessa, but there was nothing apologetic in his tone.

"But after our discussion, we believe that your views are very different from the survival philosophy of our civilization. Giving you the latest breakthrough technology may very well lead to catastrophe in the galaxy."

Quintessa was stunned for a moment, and then a flash of anger appeared on her face, but the voice in the symbol continued to speak.

"By then, countless civilizations will be destroyed and all lives will be reduced to ashes. That is not a scene we want to see."

"We will return to the Milky Way in the long run. We hope to see a prosperous Milky Way and one or several civilizations similar to ours before."

"So you excluded me?" Quintessa asked in disbelief, "You abandoned me? You think I am inconsistent with the ideals of civilization, just because I like Transformers and didn't go with you?"

She felt incredible.

Because the population of the Creator Civilization is extremely small, only tens of thousands at full count, and she was once one of the top managers in the Creator Civilization. How come she is considered inconsistent with the concept of civilization and should not have new technologies?

"Transformers are a vicious civilization that is keen on plundering and killing, and if they get a small part of our knowledge and technology, they are bound to become a cancer in the universe. You clearly understand this, and you still decided to stay and help. Even lead them.”

"Quintessa, many years ago we asked you a question."

“We now ask you that question again – do you understand what you are doing and are you willing to face the consequences?”

Quintessa was silent.

After the Creator civilization gave up its mandatory management of the Transformers civilization, the Transformers civilization quickly became a civilization that focused on plunder.

They extracted stellar energy everywhere, causing one galaxy after another to lose the hope of birthing life. Later, they simply focused on extracting stellar energy from the galaxies with life, causing one mass extinction of life after another.

Later, a rebellion broke out under her command, driving her away from the Transformers civilization. Now she was involved in the war because of the Transformers, and finally became a prisoner of mankind.

If she had followed her own civilization and left the Transformers, what happened now would definitely not have happened.

She will follow her compatriots to the distant Andromeda Galaxy, swim together in the ocean of knowledge, and study various technologies happily, instead of becoming a prisoner of mankind and facing an unknown fate.

"Setting out to the Andromeda Galaxy is a very adventurous and romantic move. You refuse to go with us. We can understand you. You cannot bear the loneliness and are afraid of danger on the way."

"But we are equally intolerant of loneliness, and we are also afraid of danger on the way, but we still decided to go to the Andromeda Galaxy, because we believe that giving up the opportunity to explore the boundaries of science is more terrifying than loneliness and danger."

The voice in the symbol said with regret: "Quintasha, you have been lost. Endless life has not shaped you into a wise and tolerant elder, but has turned you into a child swinging around with a wooden stick. .”

Quintessa was silent.

The words of her compatriots touched her a lot. Her database ran at high speed, extracting frames from the past, bringing her thoughts back to that beautiful time when she was still within civilization.

It seemed that she had never been truly happy since leaving civilization.

The occasional laugh is just a shallow smile after the desire is satisfied.

She could imagine the joy of her compatriots as the technological explosion occurred on their way to the Andromeda Galaxy.

If she had not left the Creator Civilization and refused the Creator Civilization’s invitation to go to the Andromeda Galaxy, she could have shared this true joy.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, what has she done over the years?

Technologically, I stood still and bullied the weak in life. In the end, I got nothing and put myself in an unprecedented predicament.

She was indeed lost, and had been lost for too long. (End of chapter)
