Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones-Chapter 298: Stellar Cannon

Hundreds of years ago.

Surrounded by hundreds of billions of cubes, Tom turned his gaze to the massive star ravaged by Electromagnetic Creatures.

The electromagnetic signal, transmitted via hundreds of giant antennas, has already reached the star.

"Now, I’m giving you two choices.

First, exterminate them all. Second, surrender to me!

You have no other choice! Now, tell me your options!"

"Kill, kill, kill, kill all technological and intelligent civilizations!

Either you are completely wiped out, or we are completely wiped out!

Even if you flee this solar system, we will follow you. Wherever you go, we will go, until we die!"

Tom sighed deeply.

If there’s really no other way, then I’ll just have to wipe these guys out.

But at that moment, an idea suddenly popped into Tom’s mind.

These Electromagnetic Creatures only talk about killing all technological and intelligent civilizations... The technological and intelligent civilizations they are talking about seem to refer to what they consider to be orthodox intelligent civilizations?

But I am not a legitimate intelligent civilization; I am a Clone Disaster.

Tom tried sending another message.

"I am not a technologically advanced civilization! I am a different kind of being. So, do you surrender to me?"

A long silence greeted Tom. A glimmer of hope gradually emerged in his heart.

After a long while, another electromagnetic signal was sent: "We don’t believe it."

"Don’t believe me? Come and see for yourselves. Don’t worry, I promise I won’t attack you. Besides, do you even care about life or death right now? Just come and see!"

An Electromagnetic Creature, maintaining its plasma state, left its star and, under special protection, arrived at one of Tom’s habitation ships.

After witnessing Tom’s mode of existence, the Electromagnetic Creature left and returned to its star.

After a long pause, they finally gave a reply.

"We’ll surrender to you, but you have to agree to one condition."

"Speak."

"Once you become even stronger, help us wipe out the Purple Moon Civilization!"

"Purple Moon Civilization?"

Tom had never heard of this name before. But it seemed that this Purple Moon Civilization was the root cause of the Electromagnetic Creatures’ hatred for orthodox intelligent civilizations.

"Yes, Purple Moon Civilization! We Electromagnetic Creatures are a race that values freedom and combat. If you defeat us fair and square on the battlefield, we will not hate you.

But those Purple Moons inflicted upon us the cruelest and most despicable punishments. My entire race paid a heavy price to allow me to escape.

From the moment I escaped, I swore that I would take revenge and annihilate all intelligent civilizations in this universe...

You are still weak now, but that’s alright. I’ll wait for you to grow strong. As long as you promise me that once you have enough strength, you will help me destroy the Purple Moon Civilization and rescue my ancestors, I will surrender to you!"

Am I still very weak?

In that case, the Purple Moon Civilization would at least have reached the pinnacle of Strong Nuclear Civilization, or even gone further, entering the level of Gravity Civilization.

But that’s a matter for the future. For now, let’s agree to his request and gain an ally first.

But...

"As far as I know, you are under the control of the Havilah Civilization."

"Ha, if my ancestors hadn’t sacrificed their lives to help me escape, how could the Havilah Civilization have entered the Purple Moon Civilization’s testing grounds undetected and then captured me?"

It turns out that these Electromagnetic Creatures were stolen by the Havilah Civilization...

Tom made a decision quickly. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"I’ll avenge you, I’ll do it! But you have to agree to one condition!

I will provide you with a comfortable living environment, but you must obey my orders and fight for me when necessary. At the same time... I will conduct research on you and attempt to modify you, so that I can kill you all at any time if necessary.

Please understand, I must have complete and absolute control over you before I will accept your surrender. Otherwise, an unstable element would be a threat to me!"

"I promise you."

The Electromagnetic Creatures agreed so readily that Tom felt a little unreal.

"Are you sure? Can you represent your entire tribe?"

"All the remaining Electromagnetic Creatures in our group are my descendants. I can speak for them."

"Good!"

Tom’s mind raced, and he immediately made a decision: "Now, I want you all to leave the star. Later, I will still manipulate these cubes to crash into it.

Your existence will be concealed; you will become my trump card against future enemies!"

"Good."

A large number of Electromagnetic Creatures left the star and converged in the space designated by Tom. Tom then manipulated those cubes to collide with the star.

Afterwards, Tom specially modified several aerospace carriers, adopting a magnetic confinement mode to maintain their interiors in a star-like environment of several thousand degrees Celsius, allowing Electromagnetic Creatures to survive.

The Electromagnetic Creatures that escaped the Purple Moon Civilization test site and multiplied into an entire species was given a new name by Tom.

Electric Disaster!

After that, Tom secretly began research on Electromagnetic Creatures, developing their potential while also increasing his understanding of them in order to gain complete control over them.

Ultimately, Tom achieved two results.

Firstly, laser technology is used to intentionally sculpt the ionization structure inside Electromagnetic Creatures. For Electromagnetic Creatures, this structure functions much like DNA, and it will be passed on to future generations even after they reproduce.

The purpose of this ionized structure is to make it sensitive to electromagnetic waves of a specific frequency.

In this way, it would be very simple and convenient for Tom to destroy these Electromagnetic Creatures again. Even if they hid in the stars again, all he would need to do is release electromagnetic pulses of a specific frequency band using some high-power communication antennas.

Secondly, based on the special abilities of the Electromagnetic Creatures, Tom combined the technology of intelligent civilizations to significantly modify and enhance their ability to "condense starlight to emit highly condensed starlight".

Through specific structures and processes, Electromagnetic Creatures are no longer limited to emitting a single beam of condensed stellar light as they were initially. Instead, tens of millions of Electromagnetic Creatures can combine to condense and emit stellar light over a larger area!

Through continuous training, improvement, optimization, and iteration, until the arrival of the Mechanical Disaster - Havilah Civilization joint fleet, the Electromagnetic Creatures were able to condense and release starlight from trillions of square kilometers of space to a certain extent.

Tom gave this mechanism a very fitting name.

Stellar Cannon!
