Chapter 103: Surpassing the Void Realm

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The discovery of ‘The Lost Beehive Empire’ became a major event in the Milky Way.

Because the civilizations calculated and found that the Milky Way had grown from the original four lost empires to the current seven.

It seemed that every lost empire had its own unique characteristics. At the same time, they possessed technology and strength that ordinary civilizations could not imagine.

Based on the characteristics of the Milky Way civilization, many people were already guessing if there were other lost empires that had yet to be discovered. However, that matter was still far away from them. Right now, they needed to focus on the conflict between the lost empires.

The war between the ‘Watcher’ and the ‘Voyager’ showed no signs of stopping.

Although the ‘Watcher’ was suppressing the ‘Voyager,’ the ‘Voyager’ also showed extraordinary tenacity in defending their territory.

Compared to the ’Watcher’ fleet, which required the operation of a Psionic Caster, the casualties of the unmanned fleet of the ‘Voyager’ were not a concern at all.

Even if it were a few ships in exchange for one, the ‘Voyager’ still thought that they benefitted. That was because the cultivation of Psionic Casters needed time. Those ‘chosen ones’ who were born with that knowledge were ultimately few in number.

Therefore, as the ‘Voyager’ had expected, the ‘Watcher’ began to relax the frequency of their battles. Every battleship became very cautious and more concerned about survival.

That also caused the frequency of battles to decrease, but the duration of the battles had instead been extended. A few highly mobile battleships could fight in a galaxy for a few days.

The ‘Voyager’ was secretly delighted by that situation because they were trying to stall for time.

However, the ‘Watcher’ was surprisingly steady. They didn’t seem anxious, as if they had a plan.

At that moment, the Holy Land of the ‘Watcher’ seemed to have lost its original noble and sacred appearance.

The ‘Watcher’ who forbade any other civilization from colonizing the Holy Land seemed to have ignored the place the Holy Land held in their hearts. Megastructures slowly rose around the Holy Land with the ‘Holy Land planet’ as the core frame.

Even the ‘pure treasures’ that had become poisonous planets were the same. It was as if the ecology of the Holy Land was not important, but their special location was.

‘Void Realm Siphon’ was the name the high priest gave to that megastructure.

They created a megastructure version of that equipment by imitating the ruins left behind by the ‘Enlightened Ones’ in the Holy Land. It could expand the void realm’s rift left behind by the ‘Enlightened Ones,’ thus speeding up the extraction of the void realm’s energy.

As the high priest, how could he not know the price of signing a contract with an existence in the void realm?

Of course, he knew, but he was confident.

For that reason, he did not hesitate to use the destruction of the Holy Land to stir up the emotions of his believers and use that power to achieve his goal. “…How’s the progress of the project?”

“More than half of it has been completed. Part of the structure has started working. Psionic energy is being drawn into our universe from the void realm.”

The high priest nodded as he listened to the believer’s answer through the psionic link and then fell silent again.

He had been like that from time to time recently, but people thought he was just sad about the departure of the ‘Prophet.’

After all, everyone knew he was a friend of the ‘Prophet,’ Zachlan, who had already been removed from the list. With good intentions, the believers believed he was blaming himself for failing to prevent Zachlan from being bewitched by the evil god.

The high priest muttered to himself again. The psionic power in his body fluctuated like never before but then quickly calmed down.

If anyone were present, they would have been shocked to realize that his psionic power had reached an extremely high level. That was something that no one in the entire history of the ‘Watcher’ had ever achieved.

Some people said that that level of power could affect the void realm at will, but the high priest knew that he was still far from it.

If he wanted to reach the level of the ‘Enlightened Ones,’ he would have to borrow all the power of the void realm, even if he had to pay an extremely heavy price for it.

“…It’ll be fine. I’ve never made a mistake before. It’ll be the same this

time…Others might not understand, but they must obey….”

The former Holy Land was wrapped in a strange metal frame upon the completion of the megastructure known as the ‘Void Realm Siphon.’

Psionic energy that seemed tangible was extracted from an invisible rift and compressed into a certain place for storage after countless processes.

On the ‘Walled Garden,’ the statues of the ‘Saints’ that surrounded the obelisk were all overturned and even shattered in the psionic energy that surged like a tsunami.

Only the statue that looked completely different from all the other ‘Saints’ shook slightly and remained standing as if it were mocking the foolish behavior.

Just as the ‘Watcher’ was using the ‘Void Realm Siphon’ to extract the void realm’s energy through the relics left behind by the ‘Enlightened Ones,’ their old rival, the ‘Voyager,’ who had been beaten to a pulp by them, was also carrying out the basic construction of some kind of megastructure framework on the mother planet.

There was a reason why this civilization, which had deep research on machinery and prosthetics, could become a lost empire.

Ancient history was one point, and the powerful fleet was another. Other than those, there was another more important reason, which was having the ‘ancient archives.’

Those ‘archives’ were all concentrated on an ordinary planet, but when the ‘Voyager’ discovered them, they were certain that those ‘ancient archives’ were the legacy left behind by the ‘Enlightened Ones.’

That was the secret of the Voyager.’ They had moved from the circular world to their current location not only because they could not defeat the enemy and flee but also because they had carefully chosen their location.

For that reason, they did not hesitate to rebuild their home in this place and tried to crack the ‘archive’ for a long time.

Only the best and most trusted scientists would come to the ‘archive’ and never leave the planet again. They were trying to extract data from the ‘archive’ at almost every moment.

The information extracted would be extremely precious to the ‘Voyagers,’ even if it were just a little bit.

In that long-lost era, they had almost devoted themselves to that matter just to know the secret of the ‘Enlightened Ones.’

Not long ago, they successfully extracted a very useful piece of data from it and believed that was the path the ‘Enlightened Ones’ had taken.

Therefore, they decided to eliminate their old rival first to prevent any disturbances while walking that path.

However, they did not expect that they would not be able to defeat the other party and had no choice but to hide in their territory. However, after estimating the time, they decided to start that plan ahead of time. While their old rival was being dealt with, they announced their greatness to the entire Milky Way.

And the technology they regarded as the key was coincidentally also in Li Wenyuan’s database.

[Natural Disaster Plan]

[Technology Level: 7]

[Introduction: After an in-depth study of the void realm, we have confirmed that the large-scale disturbance here will affect the void realm. According to the current theory, a surge of energy that is large enough may be able to tear the barrier between the two planes and directly let the void realm fall into our hands. This is much more powerful than the energy that the Void Realm Siphon can extract. Then, maybe we can try to take all the power in the void realm for ourselves and then head to a higher world?]

[Special note: This thing might destroy the Milky Way. We’ve gone through a lot to make this place colorful. You won’t do that, right?]

That was one of the technologies that Li Wenyuan had discovered long ago. It was even marked with a red skull in the technology tree, which was enough to show how dangerous it was.

However, since that thing was basically useless to him, Li Wenyuan quickly forgot about it.

Although he wanted to settle the score with the ‘End of Reincarnation,’ he did not need such a dangerous technology for now. The ‘Void Realm Advancement’ brought by the ‘Psionic Beacon’ should be enough for him to cause trouble for the ‘End of Reincarnation.’

The Milky Way was still fine, and the void realm was still fine. That meant that humans had never used that technology in the Milky Way.

As for whether the other galaxies had suffered, he was not sure.

“…Even the name of this thing sounds dangerous.. If someone really used this, they would become the public enemy of the Milky Way, right?”
