“The Administrator has a mission again?”
When a piece of news that affected the entire galaxy was received by all the civilizations, even the two sides that were currently at war began to pay attention to this matter.
The more they were at war, the more they needed to seek help.
When they saw the reward, they could not hide their excitement.
There was no other reason than the fact that the reward of the lost empire fleet was too attractive.
Compared to resources, which could not immediately increase one’s strength, the fleet, which could directly benefit, was obviously much more important.
Anyone with discerning eyes could see that the Milky Way forces were about to undergo a shake-up. At this critical juncture, any increase in national strength was extremely important.
…..
As a result, all kinds of adventurers wandering between the stars quickly became active, whether for their own civilization or for generous rewards.
The adventurers who had official organizations behind them obviously had to start the engine of the s.p.a.ceship first and find the way forward with limited clues.
The various civilizations also offered bounties to the people, and those who could provide clues would also receive generous treatment.
However, there was very little useful information about Li Wenyuan’s mission. Other than Lilian’s general body shape, there was only the useless filter condition of the planet may have a lot of vegetation.
The adventurers in the Milky Way didn’t seem to have a better method than searching the area and competing with luck.
However, Li Wenyuan did not expect them to find it so quickly. While waiting for the harvest, he was also paying close attention to the expansion direction and war zones of the various factions. He prioritized exploring these places.
He wanted to explore these dangerous places before the situation became even tenser so that he would not be left with anything but wreckage when he came back in the future.
However, he, who was always unimpeded in the galaxy, encountered a rare obstacle at this time.
“Hmm… You want me to pay the toll?”
When his research s.p.a.cecraft pa.s.sed by a s.p.a.ce station, it received a message saying “Request for toll” and was quickly surrounded by a group of armed s.p.a.cecraft. This stunned Li Wenyuan, who hadn’t met Rui Zhi for a long time.
In addition, the message was also filled with ear-piercing, sharp voices:
“Toll! Quack Quack! Toll! Pay us toll…”
It sounded like a lunatic’s nonsense, but the purpose of his words was quite obvious. They asked for a toll.
“No, this road was built by my ancestors. It’s already good that I didn’t ask you for a toll…” Li Wenyuan couldn’t help but complain. Then, he opened the star map very skillfully.
The research s.p.a.ceship was currently in the interstellar territory of the Complar Raiders Civilization and was stopped by these armed s.p.a.ceships.
However, he had used a lot of roads from other civilizations before, and no one had asked him for a toll. There were even many civilizations that welcomed them with open arms. Why was it different here?
For this, he confirmed the remarks again:
“The Raiders Civilization are a bunch of lunatics. They use many tattered ships that are pieced together to extort from the weak new civilizations.
“But they will also accept employment and attack other civilizations according to the employer’s orders.
“This group of garbage bugs which make up the Raiders Civilization once extorted the Turbulence Empire, threatening to hara.s.s their borders if they didn’t pay, but they never considered that they were thousands of galaxies apart.
“However, the Turbulence Empire still spent a small sum of money to get rid of these garbage bugs, because they really couldn’t stand being bombarded by harsh noises all day long.
“Therefore, after they tasted the sweetness, they seemed to have started to blackmail even more…”
After reading it, Li Wenyuan understood. “So you are beggars…”
This Raiders Civilization had no self-production capabilities. It was similar to raiders, relying on robbery and charity to survive.
The only difference between them was that they were much more numerous than the raiders. They had already formed a large group, occupying several galaxies and even dividing their sphere of influence.
As the location they had chosen was not bad, it was quite a distance away from every civilization. It was time-consuming and laborious to clear it out.
Even if they couldn’t defeat many civilizations, their hara.s.sment was still effective, and the raiders managed to earn their keep through extortion.
Basically, every civilization had been extorted by them. Moreover, because they did not ask for much, they were too lazy to be bothered. They were basically sent away in a hurry.
And this time, perhaps they were used to living a comfortable life, so they set their sights on a lost empire s.p.a.ceship that was pa.s.sing by.
They felt that the lost empire would not bother to deal with them, and might even give them a large number of resources to get rid of their hara.s.sment.
However, the better their wishful thinking was, the greater the impact of reality.
Li Wenyuan wasn’t going to let them off easily. A fleet immediately jumped into the system, and the raiders disappeared like snowflakes.
In just a few minutes, the entire galaxy was basically wiped out, and it was difficult to organize any more effective forces.
After resolving the obstacles on the way, the research s.p.a.ceship and fleet left.
A young raider saw this.
He was a native of the Raiders Civilization. He had been raised by the raiders since he was a child. They had influenced him, and now he regarded them as one of the greatest civilizations in the universe.
After all, there seemed to be many civilizations that wanted to pay tribute.
However, at this moment, he was on an escape ship, fleeing to other galaxies in a panic.
He witnessed how the powerful army he regarded as his glory was crushed like an ant.
And these small s.p.a.ceships that were fleeing in all directions could not even arouse the other party’s interest.
He began to doubt his years of pampered life, and he began to yearn for greater power, just as powerful as this mysterious black fleet.
In order to achieve his dream, he needed resources, population, a reasonable expansion plan, and…At the very least, it had to be civilized.
“What’s the big deal about this kind of beggar-like life?” The young raider punched the cabin angrily, and he was disgusted by the life he had been used to.
“As expected, being a pile of loose sand and not thinking of improving is the main culprit. Besides being trampled to death by a pa.s.sing giant one day, it will never develop and grow…”
He began to think about the root of the problem and the current situation, but his lack of knowledge prevented him from going any further.
Therefore, he prepared to improve himself in all aspects.
He wanted to integrate these undisciplined, beggar-like raiders and lead the life he wanted.
At the very least, he did not want to be treated as a beggar anymore. He wanted to be a terrifying existence like the master of the black fleet.
Perhaps in the future, he would also have a presence on the Milky Way stage..
