Wandering Meteor-Chapter 355 - 354: The 800,000 Milestone

The vast starscape, a deep dark expanse.

The Wandering Star System continues its flight toward the Cosmic Center, their own sea of stars.

Inside the Wandering Alliance, Constant Star Lu Chen and Green Star had just finished acquainting themselves with the Electromagnetic Civilization.

Green Star couldn’t help but exclaim, "I never expected the alien civilization we encountered to be called Electromagnetic Civilization, and it’s even more unexpected that these Electromagnetic Star People can release electricity. What a marvelous universe!"

"I had some guesses before, but I didn’t expect them to be able to release such high voltages. This is much more powerful than eels and similar creatures on Earth. Combined with their intelligence, they truly deserve the name of Super Man. If it comes to a one-on-one fight, I fear no one can stand against them," Constant Star Lu Chen agreed.

"Haha!"

Green Star laughed loudly, "Unfortunately, reality is harsh. Who would engage them in a one-on-one fight if they can be killed with a single strike! Isn’t that just asking for trouble? However, what surprised me is that they have no connection with the Titan Civilization; I thought they were sent by the Titan Civilization for revenge!"

"By the way, speaking of the Titan Civilization, where have they gone?" Green Star asked curiously.

Constant Star Lu Chen understood Green Star’s point and said, "Given Wuba of Constant Star Unrivaled’s personality, it is indeed possible they could be waiting to ambush us later, but they haven’t shown up, perhaps due to the fear of Metal Civilization or because the Metal Civilization ruined their schemes, so they might be clashing with them. That’s the only explanation. But we don’t need to worry, even if the Titan Civilization appears now, we have truly become a Level 4 Civilization, and we won’t be weaker than them."

Green Star replied, "I understand that, just curious. But how do you plan to deal with the captured members of the Electromagnetic Civilization?"

"Now that we have gathered sufficient information about the Electromagnetic Civilization, keeping them is not of much use. I had originally planned to conduct ideological education for these aliens, to stabilize them on Earth, where several extinct civilizations’ races have already settled. However, these Electromagnetic Star People are different from other aliens; they can release electricity and pose a certain risk factor, potentially leading to riots and turmoil. So, I plan to execute them. What do you think?" Constant Star Lu Chen asked.

Green Star replied, "If the Electromagnetic Civilization has been wiped out, then I have no objections. But the main force of the Electromagnetic Civilization still exists; this time, it was only a part of their combat power that besieged us. Hence, I suggest temporarily imprisoning them until our grudge with the Electromagnetic Civilization is settled, there’s no hurry. Though executing them now wouldn’t pose a big problem, it won’t benefit our current strategic situation in the Wandering Alliance, and keeping these prisoners might have unexpected uses."

"You make sense, then let’s imprison them for now," Constant Star Lu Chen agreed to Green Star’s suggestion.

After discussing this matter with Earth Civilization, Constant Star Lu Chen then instructed the Science and Martial Battle Star to take out the Celestial Body Capture Device obtained from the Electromagnetic Civilization.

Although they decided not to kill the Electromagnetic Star People for the time being, Constant Star Lu Chen wouldn’t let go of the resources inside the Celestial Body Capture Device, especially the ten Constant Stars included within it. It was like meat delivered to his mouth - not eating it would be foolish.

He instructed the Science and Martial Battle Star to gradually release the ten Constant Stars from the Celestial Body Capture Device, allowing him to absorb them batch by batch.

Finally, after absorbing these ten readily available Constant Stars, Constant Star Lu Chen’s mass increased to eight hundred thousand Constant Star Mass, an increase of 78,500 from 721,500 previously.

This means that the total mass of these ten Constant Stars was 78,500, not a large amount, but not insignificant either.

After absorbing the ten Constant Stars, Constant Star Lu Chen began discussing with the Wandering Alliance about how to utilize the remaining resources.

These resources had been seized from the Electromagnetic Civilization, and aside from the ten Constant Stars already absorbed by Constant Star Lu Chen, there were a thousand celestial bodies converted into energy, and two thousand planets of varying masses.

After much discussion, the Wandering Alliance decided to store those converted into energy in the Celestial Body Capture Device for future use. As for the two thousand planets, they would be released from the Celestial Body Capture Device into the Heliosphere of the Wandering Star System.

This is because the strategy of the Wandering Alliance differs from that of the Electromagnetic Civilization.

In the Wandering Alliance, there is no private ownership or personal wealth, and even currency has been abolished. Everyone is part of a team; all resources and wealth are freely shared. Moreover, since the Wandering Alliance does not engage in planetary material trade, there ’s no need to store them in compact Celestial Body Capture Devices. Therefore, it’s best to keep them in the Heliosphere, which not only makes it easier for the alliance to extract resources but also enriches the diverse and complex environment of the Heliosphere.

Many scientists have also observed some peculiar changes happening in the Heliosphere.

Half a day later, the Wandering Alliance successfully relocated all two thousand planets to the Heliosphere.

Currently, while the diameter of the Heliosphere hasn’t changed much, its mass has increased to 300,000 Constant Star Mass, an increase of about 50,000 Constant Star Mass from before. This increase of fifty thousand Constant Star Mass, with eighty percent absorbed from the hourglass nebula, and twenty percent provided by the two thousand planets. With Lu Chen’s current eighty thousand Constant Star Mass, the gravity strength fully allows him to control the entire Wandering Star System easily, bringing balance to the system once again.

"It’s really unexpected. After all this time, only fifty thousand Constant Star Mass was added to the Heliosphere?" Green Star said incredulously.

Constant Star Lu Chen replied, "You are not wrong, indeed only fifty thousand was added."

Constant Star Lu Chen continued, "Actually, I had anticipated this outcome because during the flight earlier, I had already noticed a significant reduction in the interstellar material in the universe, which is why the Heliosphere’s mass increased slowly, disadvantageous for our resource and energy collection. However, there’s nothing we can do. In times of crisis, all cosmic civilizations are plundering resources, which will inevitably lead to a sharp decrease in interstellar material. The good times have passed, and if we want to plunder more substantial resources in the future, we might have to resort to arms."

"Previously, I didn’t feel this way, but now, even though we’re not yet within the Cosmic Zone, things are already this harsh!" Green Star remarked solemnly.

...

After a hundred and fifty billion Electromagnetic Star People scattered and escaped.

Under the mindset of individual heroism, everyone took their paths without any intentions of communication or unity.

Moreover, these surviving Electromagnetic Star People didn’t pay much attention to their sacrificed kin, nor the destroyed Planet Flying Devices. Not that they were indifferent, they had been saddened for a while, but they knew grieving was futile - their primary task at the moment was to survive and plunder more resources.

Thus, these scattered fleeing Electromagnetic Star People simply headed farther away, searching for other resources to plunder, and these one hundred fifty billion Electromagnetic Super Men would bring unknown changes to the Star Zone’s universe.
