Chapter 89: Beacon of Perpetuity

Although the situation in the Milky Way was generally calm again, all civilizations knew that a storm was coming. In addition to signing various diplomatic agreements, they were also crazily improving themselves.

Raising their military and technological capabilities was one thing, but searching for the history of the lost empire was another.

They wanted to know what had happened. Would their civilizations be able to gain anything?

The archeological civilization that was preparing to migrate was also noticed by the civilizations that often interacted with them. In the end, under increasing diplomatic pressure, they had no choice but to share their findings. “Circular world?” When this message spread rapidly in the Milky Way, Li Wenyuan also noticed the content and gradually revealed a thoughtful expression.

According to the archeological civilization, they had once discovered a destroyed circular world in a certain star system, which contained the history of the lost empire.

Now, the civilizations of the Milky Way had begun to send people into that galaxy to investigate.

“This time, it shouldn’t be a world created by humans…”

The archaeological civilization had given him a brand-new coordinate, a place that even Li Wenyuan had never explored before.

He didn’t think that every new discovery was related to humans. The history of the Milky Way was so long, it was not impossible for any civilization to create such a face project.

“But I still need to take a look. How can I not participate in such a major event related to the lost history?”

Hence, a research spaceship that was near the coordinates of the galaxy turned around and rushed there. Soon, it entered the target galaxy with the civilization.

Just as Li Wenyuan had expected, the moment he entered, he was certain that the destroyed circular world had nothing to do with humans.

Although it had been blown into several pieces, one could still vaguely recognize the style it used. It was really ugly.

Li Wenyuan believed that normal humans would not like this style. Only aliens would like it.

The explorers from the other interstellar civilizations did not pay much attention to this style. They only began to transmit data the moment they entered. After all, the circular world was a rather rare building for most civilizations.

Even though they had noticed the presence of a research spaceship with the aura of the lost empire, they were all here to investigate, so no one paid attention to it.

Li Wenyuan did not have any thoughts about the destroyed circular world itself. Just as the archaeological civilization had said, because it had suffered too much damage, it was completely worthless to repair.

Even though he felt that he could repair this place, the resources, time, and energy spent were enough for him to build a new circular world.

He was only interested in its origins and the secrets that were hidden in it.

While the other civilizations were still observing, he had already taken the lead and let the research spaceship approach.

This circular world had suffered more complete destruction than his Epsilon Shelter. Even the circular world that had been blown up by the End of Reincarnation was far inferior.

It could almost be said that what was revolving around the star here was a ring of fragments of the world. It was hard to imagine what had happened here.

As the research spacecraft approached, the scenery of the world fragments of different sizes was uploaded to the database.

There must have been an extremely developed civilization here. The dense ruins of buildings covered almost every fragment of the circular world, and with the occasional collision, more and more tiny fragments were thrown into the galaxy.

Even the Epsilon Shelter that Li Wenyuan controlled did not have so many buildings. It was obvious that the former owner of this circular world had made good use of every piece of land.

But in addition to these almost completely destroyed buildings, he also found a large number of robots here.

Most of them disappeared along with the destruction of the circular world. Broken mechanical bodies wandered around in space or became part of the split earth.

There was a place that he thought was a fragment of the world at first glance. After getting closer, he realized that it was a large group of robots entangled together. If these robots were regarded as living beings, this scene could be said to be extremely terrifying.

“Could this place be related to some lost empire? Is it the Voyager?” That was Li Wenyuan’s first thought.

He knew that as the extremely materialistic lost empire that was the Voyager, they were still making high use of robots. Even though their main species was artificial people, they had a group of mechanical servants that were comparable in number to them.

These mechanical servants, which were similar to but different from the theme park mechanical servants, were not very intelligent. They could not even be called intelligent machines. They were just mechanical bodies, although they used a service agreement to provide services for their master, the Voyager.

If this broken circular world was related to the Voyager, then a large number of robot corpses and building ruins here made sense.

“If that’s the case, then this circular world was blown up by the Administrator?” Li Wenyuan remembered the ancient battlefield that he and Gray Wind had seen before. The remains of that kind of fleet were almost the same as fighting to the death. However, it was obvious that this battle to the death did not continue, because the two lost empires that were the protagonists were still alive.

He felt that if his circular world was blown up like this, it would definitely not rest until one of them died. As for why these two lost empires ended the war, it was still a mystery.

The spaceship continued to scan, and the explorers from other civilizations also approached the circular world after uploading the first data and began their own exploration.

Soon, through the spacecraft’s scanning, Li Wenyuan discovered a building ruin that might be the Circular World Control Center.

As the architectural style here was very different from that of humans, he could only judge the function of this building ruins by its size and location. However, this huge building was indeed very eye-catching. Even if it was not the control center, Li Wenyuan was prepared to explore it carefully.

As the scanning progressed, he found traces of recent excavation here. According to the time, it might have been done by the archaeological civilization that provided the coordinates here.

Following this new clue, he found a port that could be accessed in a certain part of the giant building, and there were traces of it being used.

Even though there was no access device in the current Milky Way that could adapt to it, civilizations that wanted archaeology naturally had their own ways to solve this problem.

A small group of nanomachines on the drone began to adapt to the access port, and then the drone was connected to the ruins of the building.

The building seemed to have lost its vitality in the long river of history, but it still left some records and let Li Wenyuan see a broken story.
