Overlord: Rise of the Zerg

This civilization that has not yet been truly encountered gave the Velvet people a "tattered" gift during their first contact.

Compared with a behemoth like the Federation Third Fleet, it is like a piece of space junk floating in the deep space of the universe. If it does not continuously emit electromagnetic waves, it will not even be discovered.

But now, its "noisy" sent itself into the Velvet's shipboard laboratory, and the entire structure was easily figured out.

It was a simple deep-space vehicle that used small controllable nuclear fission reactions as its energy source, thereby continuously releasing electromagnetic waves in the universe. Before that, it had probably been operating for about three hundred years. Judging from its previous speed, it was probably only 1-3 light years away from its starting point.

Its engine has long been extinguished and can no longer start on its own, which means that it is out of control, or that it has been abandoned by the civilization that released it.

However, judging from the level of its engine, the other party should be quite advanced in fission reaction. After all, if it can control it to this point, it can also increase its own speed to about one percent of the speed of light. , is indeed not a simple matter.

Of course, this conclusion is limited to before the fission energy era.

It is worth mentioning that if it had not been captured by the Velvet people this time, it would have broken into the territory of the Velvet Federation at such a speed in one thousand two hundred years.

If it does not suffer major losses, the behavior of the electromagnetic waves it continues to emit will not stop until then. Sufficient energy is enough for it to make "sounds" for thousands of years.

In other words, even if it is not discovered by the Third Fleet this time, it is destined to encounter the Velvet people.

Judging from its course data, there are about two star systems behind it that may be its source. For the Velvet people, the third fleet is almost equivalent to walking to the opponent's doorstep!

In the night sky, there are stars. There are so many stars in the universe, but in the vast universe, they only occupy some insignificant space.

The two exploration ships of the Federation's Third Fleet ended their analysis missions and started their hyperlight engines towards two galaxies with slightly different directions.

The energy problem has been basically solved decades ago. Today, the Velvet people are consuming energy crystals wantonly and heading towards two stars four light-years away at the maximum speed.

In more than a month at most, they will reach the edge of the galaxy and directly incorporate the entire galaxy into the intelligence system. Regardless of whether there is an intelligent civilization within it that has the ability to release detectors, it cannot escape their "eyes".

After all, judging from the time, hundreds of years have passed. Even if the other party's technological level was relatively backward before this, it is still unclear where the other party has reached in such a long time.

Go first with the exploration ship, the target is small and you can get enough intelligence. As for the main force of the Third Fleet, they are still moving forward slowly in this space, waiting for news from the front.

The Velvets who have mastered long-distance communication can even directly transmit specific information here to the mainland at any time. Even in the hinterland of the Federation, they can obtain all the information here in real time.

Of course Todd is also paying attention here. As the brainworm responsible for secretly manipulating the Velvet Federation, everything that happens here is related to it. Not only the Velvets, but the Zerg also need more intelligent civilizations to provide their value to the Zerg!

A month later, a Velvet-specific exploration ship arrived at one of the target star systems and revealed its figure in the outer space.

As a "scout" in the fleet, it has powerful intelligence gathering capabilities, especially for a galaxy. It has performed such missions countless times in the past few decades.

The two galaxies that were judged to have possible civilizations had already been judged to be single star systems in previous observations. This was not difficult at all. The Velvet people had sufficient standards in this regard.

Previous long-distance observations have shown that both galaxies have environments suitable for nurturing life. That is, a star of moderate age, in a suitable orbit, surrounded by planets of moderate size and mass, and has characteristics suspected of being a living planet.

However, its specific information cannot be truly confirmed until close observation by Velvet's detector.

As judged before, there are indeed living planets in this galaxy. Observed from inside the galaxy, the blue sphere in the darkness is particularly conspicuous!

Water, atmosphere, land, even vegetation!

In the outer orbit of the planet, there are densely packed satellites and old space stations in the detection field of view, as well as an unknown building under construction. It seems to be a giant space dock, and its size is enough to match the average Zerg space. The units are comparable!

There are also a large number of space vehicles around several other planets, and there seem to be traces of colonies on one of the planets.

This is obviously the destination that the Velvet people are looking for.

At the moment when the news came back, whether it was the Federation's Third Fleet waiting several light-years away, the Federation's senior officials who were far away in the country who were qualified to know, or the brainworm Todd, they all felt relieved.

The so-called second contact ended quietly without any contact with a civilization that seemed to have entered the galaxy era for a long time.

Maybe the other party has noticed this uninvited guest from the Velvet star field, or maybe not. Even if the Velvet people have advanced technology and are observing the planet from the edge of the galaxy, they cannot provide them with accurate real-time information at a distance of more than eight light hours.

However, the Federal Third Fleet is already on the way at this moment.

The Federal Parliament passed the proposal of the Third Fleet to carry out the third contact with the other party on behalf of civilization. At this moment, the exploration ship no longer had any cover, and swaggered into the galaxy, showing its figure without any scruples.

Before the Third Fleet arrives, it will serve as a messenger for contact between the two sides, sending Velvet greetings to the other party.

Now, the territory of the Federation has expanded to the nearby area, and there will be intersection with them no matter what, not to mention the technological level of the other party, which is not enough to worry the Velvet people at all.

The level of development shown by the other party is probably the same as that of the Fowler people back then, let alone the entire Third Fleet. If you randomly pick out a warship from the Third Fleet, as long as the energy supply is sufficient, it will be difficult for the other party to attack it. threatening!

Even this "scout" warship is definitely considered high-tech for such a civilization.

While the main force of the Federation's Third Fleet arrived at the outer reaches of the galaxy, the "scouts" as messengers had already penetrated deep into the star system and arrived near the orbit of the planetary colony they were building as previously observed.

But it showed no sign of slowing down at all, and it rushed all the way, passing many natural celestial bodies and completely unsuspecting small man-made facilities, heading towards the second planet in this galaxy, that is, the living planet.

Todd can probably guess what this civilization that has not yet left the star system has experienced in this short month. From the discovery of the unknown spacecraft to its inching closer, if the civilization on its surface has completed the unification of the planet, what will it be like? It's easy to say, but if not, when such an obvious alien creation comes to visit, it will definitely experience some suffering and twists and turns.
