Chapter 376: Super Evolution (1)

The ‘Void Evil’ race suddenly showed unusual cooperation. The evil beast that was rushing to its death was gone. It was replaced by a ‘Space Lifeform Army’ that seemed to have been dispatched.

At first, the civilizations and intellectual lifeforms in the galaxy thought that the ‘Hunter’ civilization was remotely controlling the ‘Void Evil.’ But after failing to detect any abnormal signals outside the galaxy, they gave up on the idea.

Combined with the abnormal ’evolution’ ability that the ‘Void Evil’ had displayed, they finally concluded that the ‘Void Evil’ had evolved and developed ‘wisdom’ for some unknown reason.

The biggest difference between intellectual life and pure beasts lay in ‘wisdom.’ With wisdom, groups could form civilizations, individuals could evolve into ‘divine beasts,’ and all complex changes could not be separated from ‘wisdom.’

If the ‘Void Evil* had indeed developed wisdom, it would undoubtedly add many variables to the extermination operation.

However, after a series of speculations and the sample collections, the ‘Voyager’ extracted a type of nerve cell from the brains of many dead ‘Void Evil,’ which was similar to that of the bee colony. That determined that the intelligence of the ‘Void Evil’ was, in a certain sense, a hive consciousness.

Similar to the ‘Presolin,’ it was a collective consciousness constructed from a central consciousness or multiple semi-autonomous central consciousness. And the central consciousness determined the group’s direction.

In other words, there might be a ‘queen-like’ existence among the ‘Void Evil’ that controlled the other ‘Void Evil’ in the galaxy.

Due to the possibility of the beehive consciousness, the ‘Assimilation Fighters’ responsible for the maintenance and research of the ‘Void Eggs’ had no choice but to speed up the destruction of the eggs to prevent them from being born prematurely due to the influence of the ‘Void Evil,’ even though most of them were still far from the state of ‘Incubation Criticalness.’

To encircle and annihilate the ‘Void Evil,’ other than the Ether Dragons, ‘Presolin,’ and the unmanned fleet dispatched by Li Wenyuan, the ‘Voyager’ and ‘Assimilation Fighters’ also joined the battle.

At the same time, the Queen of ‘Presolin’ was leading her warriors through the galaxy, searching for the lone ‘Void Evil.’

Ever since the ‘Void Evil’ had started to gather in groups, it had been difficult for her to find an opportunity to attack.

If she used the power of her entire race, she might be able to match the number of ‘Void Evil’ in that galaxy.

However, this time, it was not a matter of ‘life and death.’ She was only there for tentative revenge and to remove the nightmare that shrouded her genes completely.

At first, she was pleased when she easily eliminated her former enemies. However, as the ‘Void Evil’ became more abnormal, she seemed to recall the painful memories of her race being massacred.

She could only keep running between the galaxies, trying to dispel the dark clouds in her heart.

All of a sudden, her sensitive psionic perception detected an abnormal psionic reaction in a galaxy not far away. It was not strong, just about the size of a ‘Void Evil.’

In the current environment of the galaxy, other than her and the warriors under her command, only the ‘Void Evil’ could send out such a psionic signal.

She had to admit that ‘Void Evil’ indeed had a strange evolutionary ability that was even more powerful than theirs. It was even possible that it had developed enough psionic ability potential after being tortured by psionic energy for a while.

Although they were still far inferior to them, they would definitely have great potential as time passed.

Moreover, based on the information shared, the Queen knew that the reaction evolution of the ‘Void Evil’ was likely to allow other ‘Void Evil’ to evolve similar abilities through some kind of Void Transmission.

For example, the sudden appearance of ‘Pseudo-Dragon Breath Beam,’ the shell that could resist high temperatures, and the psionic power that came out of nowhere. All of those had been proven on the other ‘Void Evil,’ and all of them seemed to have evolved such abilities.

Considering the circumstances, the ‘Presolin’ was also cautious about the psionic signal. She first contacted the ‘Voyager,’ whose sensor detection capability was better than hers, to confirm if there was any trap behind the psionic signal.

However, she did not expect the response to come so quickly this time. She received a response almost as soon as she sent the signal.

[…Nothing…Buzz…Buzz buzz…Nothing unusual…]

The response seemed interrupted and intermittent, but the Queen still roughly understood the meaning. The psionic signal did represent a lone ‘Void Evil.’

“In my memories…the nearest ally nearby was the ‘Voyager.’ They replied so fast…Is it because…they have sensors nearby?”

Although she hesitated momentarily, with her trust in her companions and understanding of the response signal that could only be sent by mechanical equipment, Queen ‘Presolin’ still went to the destination.

However, after arriving at the place, the Queen sensed something was wrong.

The psionic signal was still there, but as the distance got closer, the Queen realized that the signal was fixed at a certain spot in the galaxy, just like a bait, waiting for its prey to fall into its trap..
