Super God: Star Guardians, another year of conquering the galaxy.

Chapter 81 Miracles and Their Corresponding Costs

The "Presolin Insect Clan" is one of the descendant branches of their ancestors who were forced to degenerate after the "Age of Miracles".

Wherever they go, the "Hunter" will hunt them down to the ends of the earth. The main body of the "Presolin Insect Clan" has long been destroyed by the "Hunter".

The remaining remnants became a wandering race, enduring hardships and dangers in one universe after another, escaping to one galaxy after another in each universe they visited, but still unable to escape the fate of near extinction.

In order to survive, they fought with all their might, abandoning countless traditions and pride, leaving only fragmented memories that allow them to occasionally recall the glory of their ancestors in the "Age of Miracles".

Having reverted to their beastly forms, they were regarded as swarms of insectoid calamities and void demons by the civilizations they encountered, who clamored for their destruction.

However, they never cared, because most of the civilizations they encountered would only become their food, supplies for their escape.

Occasionally, they would encounter more powerful civilizations who would wipe out their refugee populations, but these were merely minor setbacks; the "last of the insectoids" could not be completely eradicated...

This escape will never end.

Until one of the ethnic groups encountered the Federation in the previous universe.

Hydra received the fragmented pieces of the "Age of Miracles," stored them as pure data, and uploaded them to the database of the Federal Research Department.

She gazed at the hazy, illusory figure before her. "How should I, on behalf of the Federation behind me, address you?"

The figure before them was essentially the ruler of the collective will of the "Prethorin Insectoids" and the inheritor of the "Age of Miracles".

A fleeting glimpse of a "miracle"...

He transcends reality, existing within illusion.

Real-world technology cannot interfere with or affect His existence.

The "Zerg Queen" controlled by the Federation is equivalent to an extension of Her consciousness, one of the lower-dimensional sub-individuals.

His role in the "Presolin Insect Race" is no less important than that of the Federation's Grand Marshal in the "Human Federation," only his existence is more unique.

He glanced behind Hydra and the research staff present, as if he had been staring at some being for a long time.

Call me "Miracle," for my people seem to have chosen you...

"If you are able to continue to 'protect' them, I think I can pay you a little 'reward'..." The miracle conveyed His will.

"Protection?"

Hydra turned to look at the Zerg Queens who were imprisoned in confinement containers as if they were experimental subjects by the Federation. Even the "Zerg Queen" who was first captured by the Federation had the same status as a pet or even a tool in the Federation.

Can such use be considered "protection"?

"We don't care about the way 'protection' is given. Even if we live in the most wretched state, it's still better than suffering the most complete destruction..." Miracle was completely calm, and there was no ripple in His eyes, which had no form of expression.

"And what is this 'reward' you're talking about?" Hidra continued to press.

"That depends on what you specifically need. In your understanding, it could be 'a warship,' 'some technology,' 'an answer'..."

"You can get anything as long as you're willing to pay the price."

"The more ethnic groups you can protect, the more 'rewards' you will receive..."

The price offered by the miracle sounded somewhat vague, leaving Hydra completely bewildered. Even with her intelligence, she couldn't understand what the "corresponding cost" the miracle was referring to was.

Suddenly, a research department director stepped forward, his body radiating an unusual, dazzling light that contrasted sharply with the starlight emanating from Miracle.

"What can you get in return for the number of your ethnic groups that the Federation currently 'protects'?" he asked.

Hidra looked at the head of the research department in surprise, said nothing, and silently took a step back.

A clear list appears on the virtual display screen.

Please feel free to choose...

"Give me a suitable plan to end 'The Hunter'."

"Can……"

Miracle scrutinized the people before it for a long time before finally offering its answer: "I hope you won't regret this."

"May we meet again someday."

As a certain point in time arrived, the miracle vanished.

That starlight, like fallen starlight, vanished without a trace.

A virtual database encrypted with hyperspace technology was left behind, and without any decryption, the contents of the database were presented to the Federal Research Department.

"The Federation will soon need the technology to analyze the database..."

After leaving this reminder, the brilliant light emanating from this research department director vanished, and he returned to his previous ordinariness and unremarkable state, with a barely perceptible sense of confusion in his eyes.

Following this instruction, Hidra and his research department began a new mission.

A massive engineering project, from blueprints to concrete construction, was put into practice.

……

After the mission to capture the Queen of the Insects was completed, the Federation fleets that had been dispatched outside the Milky Way gradually returned to the Milky Way.

The war between the Federation and the "Eternal Empire" has reached a fever pitch.

Conventional warfare expenditures are no longer sufficient to meet the war needs of the two great civilizations.

Currently, the war between the two civilizations is limited to the star clusters within their respective territories, and the entire star cluster has been completely ignited by the flames of war.

Every star system worth fighting for has become a battlefield.

If the war were to escalate to another level, it would simply mean directing the fighting beyond the star cluster.

However, neither civilization clearly wanted to allow this quagmire to continue to expand, as that would be utterly pointless.

Both civilizations have mastered the technology to mine eternal resources. They can use technological means to extract resources from other universes, or even other nodes in the universe, for their own use.

It appears that, so far in the war, the galaxy cluster containing the Milky Way has not suffered much structural damage.

However, if we add up all the resources that both civilizations consumed in the war and perform a detailed calculation, we will be astonished to find that the resource consumption of both civilizations is equivalent to extinguishing hundreds of galaxies.

Continuing to escalate the level of war would simply mean multiplying this number several times over.

This massive war transformed the two dominant civilizations from two giants exchanging blows into two giants wrestling and grappling together in the swamp.

The situation is extremely tense.

In order to break the deadlock, both sides tacitly changed the form of warfare.

The two rulers, representing the will of both civilizations, chose to personally intervene, placing all the chips on the table.
