Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 384 Conquest
Planet Tavira, Dungeon Number One.

The high-ranking officials gathered in the conference room were like family members anxiously waiting outside the operating room for the results of the surgery, their hearts filled with both anticipation and tension.

They were ultimately different from the patient's family members, who could only stay outside the operating room, completely unable to see what was happening inside or what was being done. At least they could clearly see the actions of the "doctor" Lantuk Civilization towards the "patient" and could roughly understand the principles behind the surgery.

Under these circumstances, their minds were repeatedly shaken by the highly skilled doctor.

"What kind of attack pattern is this? We seem to have detected a large number of X and Y particles, and also detected significant ultra-high energy radiation fluctuations, which even seem to be related to each other..."

"You mean all these particles, radiation, and force fields are interconnected and mutually supportive, forming a complete system for influencing space and matter? How is that possible? This level of complexity is something we couldn't achieve even if we combined all the supercomputers in our civilization and increased our computing power and intelligence by 100 times!"

"This is completely beyond my expectations..."

"How did they create such violent gravitational fluctuations? And they erupted from at least 3 kilometers deep inside the star..."

"What is that? Concentrating the energy of one region of a star and then transferring it to another region? That's unbelievable..."

The officials were deeply shocked, but that was all they were shocked about. They weren't scientists and couldn't fully grasp the implications of these actions.

The attendees, including think tanks, advisors, strategists, and scientists with certain scientific backgrounds, felt an urge to bow down in reverence for this scene.

The actions of the Blue Tuk civilization seemed to open a door in their hearts that they had never noticed or imagined before.

The scenery beyond the gate is so magnificent and breathtaking. It's just a pity that we are not yet able to enter...

Amidst repeated shocks, people finally heard that solemn declaration.

"Your star has been healed by me."

Meanwhile, the scientific observation team in Tavira also reported a message.

"Your Majesty, we have observed that stellar radiation power has reached its peak and is showing a slow downward trend. Based on this trend, our Sun will recover and return to normal in at most 150 years..."

The secretary who came to report was so excited that his voice was distorted and his body was trembling slightly.

The messages from the Lantuk civilization and their own observation team corroborated each other, undoubtedly confirming the accuracy of the message.

Well, then...

boom--

Suddenly, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted in the huge conference room. Countless people jumped up, countless people clapped, countless people hugged each other in a frenzy, and many more people couldn't help but shed tears.

President Yashan's body, which had been tense for years, suddenly relaxed, and he slumped into his seat like a lump of mud, feeling a complete relaxation both mentally and physically.

"Our sun is healthy again, we no longer need to embark on long voyages with our planet, Lola will bloom again on the earth, Uri will soar in the sky again, the sea will ripple again, and the rivers will flow again..."

"Waaah, we're saved, we're saved..."

At this moment, the last bit of wariness everyone had towards this self-proclaimed Lantuk civilization vanished completely, replaced by an overwhelming sense of gratitude and reverence.

A solemn message was sent from the planet Tavira and arrived at Li Qingsong's location.

"Dear Lantuk Civilization, thank you for your help."

We used to think that kindness was impossible in the universe, but now we know that we were like insects in a mud pit, so short-sighted and so narrow-minded. It is you who have shown us the true landscape of the universe.

We will forever remember your kindness and compassion. We will fulfill any request you give us, even if it means facing annihilation.

......"

Faced with this heartfelt message of gratitude, a strange thought flashed through Li Qingsong's mind: "Does this Tavira civilization think that kindness and friendliness are the norm in this universe because of me?"
This kind of mentality is unacceptable; otherwise, you'll suffer greatly later.

"No, in fact, your vision is not short-sighted, nor are your minds narrow-minded. The true landscape of the universe is not as warm and beautiful as it is now, but is full of darkness and danger."

Our Lantuk civilization is a benevolent civilization, but not all civilizations are like us. You must remember this, or you will perish.

As for my instructions... I've already said that I'm helping you heal this star. I'm not asking for nothing in return, but there's one thing I need your help with.

This is information about a civilization called the 'Grey Worm.' In the future, wherever you are and under what circumstances you detect traces of this civilization, even if it's just a suspicion, please broadcast this information to the universe through this gravitational wave communication device."

"Yes, please rest assured, our civilization will keep a close eye on information about this civilization. And, may I ask... what is the matter you mentioned that requires our assistance?"

Li Qingsong paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Paying attention to the traces of the Gray Worm Civilization is all the help I need."

At this moment, in Conference Room One, President Yashan was stunned once again, feeling his emotions surging uncontrollably within him.

An idea uncontrollably surfaced in his mind: "Perhaps, the true intention of the great Lantuk civilization was to help us heal the star and relieve our civilization's suffering. They merely assigned us this insignificant task to avoid the unbearable pain of not being able to repay their kindness..."

This gave him an urge to kneel before the head of the Lantuk civilization and worship them.

Because I have been completely conquered, both mentally and physically, by this civilization and the nobility of its people.

"Alright, now that this matter is settled, we should be going."

I wish you all the best for the future, and I look forward to meeting you again someday.

Li Qingsong's massive fleet regrouped and began accelerating into deep space.

The Lantuk civilization just left without a word!
Yashan jumped up from his seat instantly and exclaimed urgently, "Respected Lantuk civilization, please wait! Your fleet has not resupplyed since entering our star system."

Our civilization and technology are underdeveloped, and we know we can't offer you anything you need. However, some basic resources should be useful to you. Please take these supplies with you so we can express our gratitude.

On behalf of all our people, I implore you, and we hope you will not refuse.

Basic supplies? I don't lack that stuff. Besides, how much could a tiny nuclear civilization like yours possibly offer? I'd have to stop my ship and wait for you to receive these supplies; I don't have the time or inclination for that.

Li Qingsong casually refused, but to his surprise, the next moment, all the cargo ships that the entire Tavira civilization could mobilize were mobilized. After hurriedly loading supplies, they accelerated violently at a speed that would almost damage the ship's structure, chasing after Li Qingsong as if they would not give up until they had stuffed the supplies into his hands. "Sigh, well, I can't refuse such kindness."

Helpless, Li Qingsong had no choice but to temporarily stop accelerating and wait for the cargo ships to catch up with him.

Unexpectedly, the entire high-ranking officials of the civilization also arrived with these cargo ships. After expressing their heartfelt gratitude to Li Qingsong, they reluctantly watched him leave.

Having concluded his business here, Li Qingsong's massive fleet once again embarked on a long journey.

During the long search, Li Qingsong finally encountered several more civilizations.

One of the civilizations was not in a galaxy, but was on an interstellar journey. Its technology was only at the mid-stage of electrical weakness, and its speed was only 3% of the speed of light.

This appears to be a civilization that encountered some kind of disaster and was forced to embark on interstellar migration during a period of low electrical activity.

"Interstellar voyages at this stage are very dangerous. Look, we've met with disaster now!"

Li Qingsong observed that the fleet had been severely damaged during its journey through a stardust field. Most of the transport ships were destroyed, and the entire fleet was facing a severe shortage of supplies. They even lacked enough energy to slow the fleet down upon reaching their destination.

After testing and confirming that the civilization had not been infected by the Demon Eye, Li Qingsong appeared and casually gave them the supplies that the Tavira civilization had forced upon him.

Faced with an advanced civilization that appeared suddenly like an angel and gave them a lot of supplies without asking for anything in return, everyone in the civilization, from the head of state to the common people, was overjoyed and wished they could give their lives for Li Qingsong.

After receiving a string of thanks and being given instructions on their tasks, Li Qingsong's massive fleet once again drifted away.

As time passed and the voyage became longer, Li Qingsong encountered more than a dozen civilizations in succession.

Among them are six primitive civilizations, five weak electrical civilizations, one strong nuclear civilization, and one early-stage strong nuclear mechanical catastrophe.

The mechanical cataclysm was easily destroyed by Li Qingsong, and its main AI was reintegrated into the Primordial AI, which can be considered a small improvement.

We did not encounter any civilizations with gravity or higher.

The universe is vast, and the fact that intelligent life could emerge, even if it's just a primitive civilization, is an absolute miracle. And to have overcome so many trials and tribulations on the foundation of a primitive civilization, ultimately developing into a powerful nuclear stage, is an unimaginable feat.

The higher the level, the fewer the quantity, which is consistent with statistical laws.

Li Qingsong continued his search under these circumstances.

Time passed quietly, and one day, when Li Qingsong's gaze was once again fixed on a distant star system, he saw once again the industrial features he had been looking forward to.

Furthermore... this time the industrial characteristics are more pronounced and the technology is more advanced.

This gave Li Qingsong a jolt of energy: "Based on the existing data, this is at least a civilization at the peak of the strong core level, and possibly even at the gravity level."

Throughout this long voyage, Li Qingsong's technology continued to advance. Though slowly, it never stopped.

After so many years of almost all-out technological research and development, if Li Qingsong were to assess himself, he would say that his technological level has probably reached the mid-stage of gravity.

Taking into account its own superior industrial capabilities, the stellar cannons of the electromagnetic lifeforms, and its own unique universal force field, its combat power is already considered strong among gravity-level civilizations.

Even if I encounter a civilization at the peak of gravity, or a more advanced gravity civilization like the Yunluo civilization, even if I can't defeat it, as long as it's not a war of life and death, I should still be able to use my strength to coerce the other party to stop and leave.

Since that's the case, we can't let this opportunity pass.

Li Qingsong then changed the fleet's course, heading towards the star system tens of light-years away. As they approached, they maintained extremely high observation levels, constantly searching for information about that civilization.

A constant stream of information converged on Li Qingsong like a tidal wave. During this process, Li Qingsong gradually sensed that something was amiss.

First of all, Li Qingsong has identified that civilization as a gravity-level civilization, but the exact extent of that is still uncertain.

What made Li Qingsong feel something was wrong was that the star system contained a large amount of interstellar dust, far exceeding normal levels, and its radiation was also much higher than that of a normal star system.

In addition, the star appears to have been attacked, and the gas giant has been observed to have too many heavy element spectral lines and an excessively high surface temperature.

In Li Qingsong's understanding, it is unlikely that a gas giant would accumulate so many heavy elements on its surface under natural conditions. It would only be possible to form such a planet through long-term bombardment by a large amount of heavy element material.

Taking all these factors into account, a judgment gradually became clear.

A war is taking place in that star system.

The entity capable of engaging in a prolonged and large-scale conflict with a gravity-level civilization must be another gravity-level being.

So... there wasn't just one, but two gravitational civilizations in that star system!

Li Qingsong felt even more excited.

I never expected that I would either not run into any at all, or I would run into two at once.

The range of activity of a gravitational civilization is much larger than that of a strong nuclear civilization, and the probability of encountering a gray worm civilization is also much higher.

"Then let's go to this star system, mediate the war between these two civilizations, show them kindness, and find a way to get them to help me keep an eye out for the Gray Worm Civilization!"

Time passed slowly, and in just over a decade, Li Qingsong's fleet arrived at a distance of only 3 light-years from this star system.

From this distance, with Li Qingsong's long-range observation capabilities, he can already see most of this star system clearly.

Without slowing down, Li Qingsong began a full-scale observation once again.

then……

Li Qingsong was startled.
