Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones-Chapter 326: Origin

The Gravity beings converted the sights they saw into electromagnetic wave signals and transmitted them to Tom.

After a brief analysis, Tom’s heart immediately grew heavy.

Although he couldn’t be 100% certain, combining the intelligence obtained from the Havilah Civilization, he had an 80-90% certainty that the passing fleet, seen by the Gravity beings, about 4 light-years from this white dwarf solar system, was the Purple Moon Civilization fleet.

This indicated that he had always been tracking in the correct direction and had not deviated much from the Purple Moon Civilization fleet.

But... this matter was somewhat strange.

Over a thousand years, a long journey of over a thousand light-years, had this Purple Moon Civilization... never stopped in any solar system, never had any rest or material replenishment, and had always maintained this 90\% light-speed velocity?

For a normal intelligent civilization, this is a very strange thing.

Although material consumption is less during inertial navigation, it is not non-existent. Even Tom would stop to rest and replenish supplies after traveling a few hundred light-years.

This was even with Tom having the Flying Star. The Purple Moon Civilization didn’t have the Flying Star, yet could continuously travel over a thousand light-years?

Under such circumstances, let alone developing technology or conducting relevant research during the journey, they probably had to be extremely frugal even with the most basic supplies.

Why were they in such a hurry? What were they going to do?

After pondering for a while without coming to a conclusion, Tom gave up on thinking about this problem and instead said, "Thank you, this information is very useful to me."

"Then, goodbye. We are leaving. The universe is vast, and in the future, if fate allows, we shall meet again."

"Wishing you a smooth journey."

The Gravity beings gradually flew out of the solar system.

In the Human Civilization Intelligence and Strategy Research Office, high-ranking officials from various races gathered.

In recent times, it had become a custom within Human Civilization to regularly announce internal and external environmental changes to high-ranking officials of various races, and occasionally, major events would even be broadcast live to them.

The Human Civilization Intelligence and Strategy Research Office was an organization specifically established for this purpose. It included high-ranking officials from 20 out of a total of 21 races.

Whenever intelligence was disclosed or a major event was broadcast live, the high-ranking officials would engage in discussions, not only clarifying their own race’s next main tasks but also attempting to find shortcomings in Human Civilization’s decisions, providing references and supplementary opinions for overall decision-making.

This separation from the Gravity beings was no exception.

Seeing the Humans and Gravity beings bid farewell to each other and offer blessings, Heimerlan’s lips curved into a slight smile.

"Now is the best opportunity. The Gravity beings are completely unguarded against us Humans, and they have all left the white dwarf.

As long as we dispatch a fleet, we can complete the capture.

The Head of State will never miss such a good opportunity..."

Vasilolo nodded in full agreement.

Clan Leader Momolansi, the Bluetoth Clan Chief, smiled from behind a layer of glass, in another independent living environment.

"Chief Vasilolo, Deputy Chief Heimerlan, how about we make a bet? I bet the Head of State will never lay a hand on the Gravity beings."

"Oh? Clan Leader Momolansi seems to have a different judgment from us... If so, then let’s bet. As for the stake... my monthly salary is 200,000 Human coins, so let’s bet a month’s salary."

"Alright."

The conversation between the two high-ranking officials aroused the curiosity of the high-ranking officials of other races, and discussions arose for a moment.

Clan Leader Momolansi and Heimerlan both smiled, seemingly confident of victory.

"I’m sure to win this 200,000 Human coin bet!

From deceiving Blue at the beginning, to experimenting on Blue, letting the Abyss Civilization go, returning Blue, to suggesting the Gravity beings change their habitat...

Every step was within the Head of State’s plan, and the development of events also completely followed the Head of State’s scheme, without any deviation.

Now that it’s time for the real net to close, how could the Head of State give up?

A mere month’s salary is nothing. But this bet is a subtle confrontation between our Viller Race and the Bluetoth Clan. What we are betting on is which race is more excellent, which race has a more accurate judgment of the overall strategic direction of Humanity, and what we are betting on is the future right to speak within Human Civilization!

This time, we are sure to win!"

Heimerlan’s heart was surging. He stared intently at the movements of the Gravity beings in space.

Then, he watched them go farther and farther, flying faster and faster, until they completely disappeared from Humanity’s detection field of vision.

Until the meeting moderator announced the end of the gathering, Humanity never made a move to intercept the Gravity beings.

Heimerlan’s expression changed drastically, and he instantly stood up.

"Impossible, impossible! No, I must go find the Head of State, I must explain the pros and cons to the Head of State, we cannot let the Gravity beings go, not like this!"

Clan Leader Momolansi still smiled without speaking.

Just then, Tom’s voice suddenly appeared.

"I am the Head of State, Tom. I see that everyone seems to be puzzled by my decision to let the Gravity beings go, and there are even some arguments. Well then, I will specifically explain to everyone, so that everyone can better understand our Human way of thinking and integrate more smoothly into the big family of Human Civilization."

"Head of State, you can’t let them go, their value to us Humans is too great, you can’t..."

Heimerlan was full of urgency.

Tom smiled and said, "Chief Heimerlan, I am very pleased that you can think about problems from the perspective of Humanity’s interests. This proves that you are almost truly integrated into Humanity, it’s just... a little bit short."

Tom sighed softly: "We come from different civilizations, with different cultural backgrounds. But there is one point, I believe, that in the early stages of civilization development, every civilization must have advocated concepts such as harmony, friendliness, unity, and mutual assistance.

Civilizations that do not advocate these concepts probably cannot even cross the Electroweak Civilization stage.

But why did we all gradually change later? Becoming insidious, ruthless, and unscrupulous.

Everyone has the answer in their hearts, right? It’s nothing more than the pressure of survival.

This vast and boundless universe is assimilating us little by little...

Frankly speaking, I do not resist this assimilation. Facing enemies, my methods are equally ruthless. Exterminating a civilization is nothing to me."

The high-ranking officials of the Bluetoth Clan and the Viller Race felt a sense of empathy.

"I’m just thinking... while being assimilated by this universe, can there still be some persistence belonging to the origin of civilization.

At least, when ensuring that the other party cannot pose a threat to us, do not be so ruthless, do not be so unscrupulous, can we still adhere to those things we have always advocated in the early stages of civilization development, can we add a little warmth to this dark and cold universe.

And... even if we really do this, will it necessarily be harmful to civilization development?

In my opinion, not necessarily."
