However, when they checked the situation, they realized something was wrong.

“…It’s a little strange. Due to the huge impact of external forces, it’s normal for major disasters to happen on this planet. Tsunamis and earthquakes are even more common. Why is there nothing?”

The entire Nature Reserve Planet seemed to be calm and peaceful. The lifeforms on it appeared to be completely unaffected by the war. They were still leisurely strolling on the plains of the planet, occasionally eating the grass, living comfortably.

There was nothing unusual. The visible pit on the surface seemed to be an illusion and did not affect the planet at all.

A scientist immediately said, “Let’s go to the pit and take a look!”

Their spaceship quickly arrived at the place where the attack had taken place. The rock stratum here had suffered great damage, and the cracks had spread to the depths. From time to time, they would peel off with the breeze.

However, the scientists noticed something was wrong. They found that the cracks were spreading inward in an unnatural shape, as if something was shaking under the rock stratum, trying to break out of the shell.

“Put down the drones and leave this place immediately! Inform the others in the galaxy to leave this galaxy as soon as possible!” The leader of that group of scientists decisively left the planet, leaving only the drones for observation.

Curiosity about everything was a natural gift of all lifeforms, especially scientists. Logically speaking, they should have stopped there and waited quietly to see what would happen next.

However, all of them felt a warning coming from their bodies. The nemesis-like sense of danger drove them away.

Obviously, there must be something terrifying under the planet. Their sixth sense was enough to make their bodies want to stay away.

Therefore, the Pyro Alliance spaceships in this ‘Nature Reserve Galaxy’ quickly withdrew. Only the drones on the various Nature Reserve Planets were still recording the contents.

As more and more cracks appeared on the planet’s pit, the secret buried there was finally revealed to the Pyro Alliance.

First, a small rock wall piece fell off, revealing a dark hole behind it. It was as if the planet’s crust was hollow, one where one couldn’t see its depths.

Then, a huge meat pillar that looked like an enlarged ant’s antenna poked out of the hole and then shrank into darkness.

Something strange happened at that moment.

Countless tidal waves that seemed to be made of flesh and blood surged out of the hole and quickly spread to the surroundings. Everything they touched along the way quickly became a part of them.

It was not only here, but other parts of the planet also began to tremble. Poisonous gases were first released from the cracks on the surface, and then a sea of flesh and blood surged like before.

Countless cracks like that kept appearing. Soon, the entire planet was covered by those life-like lifeform eroding bodies, and they became thicker and thicker.

On top of those lifeform eroding bodies, buildings-like large organisms with different functions rapidly grew. One could vaguely see new lifeforms being born within them.

It looked rather strange but also had the special beauty of a lifeform’s perfect evolution.

In the end, to the astonishment of the members of the Pyro Alliance, the rest of the ‘Nature Reserve Planets’ had become like that. They became ‘Hatchery Planets’ that were nest-like after being entirely transformed by that group of lifeform eroding bodies.

While they were shocked, Li Wenyuan, who was far away on Earth, was also shocked.

He received a special signal. After digging human ruins for a long time, he was familiar with that signal. That meant that something left behind by humans had been activated again.

Also, there was a galaxy flashing with intense light on his star map as if urging him to hurry over.

Without hesitation, he immediately warped a research spaceship over without even having the time to call for Gray Wind. At the same time, he told the fleet to get ready for battle.

He felt that the situation this time was a little unusual. He had never seen a signal from a place cause such a big commotion.

The warp wave flashed by, and when the research spaceship arrived, he also saw the scene inside the galaxy.

There were many giant lifeforms with ferocious appearances in the universe. The individuals in the killer bee colony were like a group of children compared to them. Even their appearances were not as terrifying.

Apart from that, other than the giant gas planet, all the other planets here had been modified by a layer of lifeform eroding bodies. Other than this kind of lifeform, it was completely unsuitable for other lifeforms to inhabit.

The giant lifeforms wandering in space sensed outsiders. They immediately bared their fangs, brandishing their claws as if they wanted to rush forward and tear apart the small research spacecraft.

However, in the next moment, their ferocious movements calmed down as if they had received an order.

When Li Wenyuan arrived, he received a message left behind by the humans.

[Warning, please do not barge into the ‘Hatchery’. If you want to enter, please bring along items that can prove your identity.]

[Didn’t you hear? This is the ‘Hatchery’! If you don’t leave now, you’ll suffer…]

[Alright, if you still haven’t left, you must have some background. I pity my little bugs…]

[Yes, yes, I’m a specialist. My name is… Needless to say? Okay, I understand. Then call me a specialist.]

[What’s placed here is actually a group of lifeforms from outside the Milky Way! You didn’t expect this, did you?]

[This powerful lifeform can even travel through sub-space, through the distant and cold universe between the galaxies, arriving here.]

[Initially, we were curious about what they would do, so we left them alone and observed for a while.]

[But we soon discovered that they were very aggressive. The moment they arrived in the Milky Way, they kept devouring and expanding as if they would not stop until they devoured the entire Milky Way.]

[So we ‘educated’ them a little, throwing those unwilling to listen to our teachings back into the sub-space, leaving behind a small group that was successfully inspired by us.]

[Through the conversation with them, we learned that they seemed to have been driven here by a group of even more terrifying lifeforms.]

[I didn’t expect there to be so many interesting guys outside the Milky Way. Maybe we can meet up with them in the future and exchange our thoughts…]

[I’m digressing. I sympathize with their tragic experience, so I want to try to nurture the remaining ones into a civilization, and hence they were placed in the ‘Hatchery’ Galaxy.]

[There are five habitable planets here that have been artificially modified by us.. I hope no unlucky person will colonize this place in the future!]
