Without a basic resource like metal, the development of civilization would definitely be severely restricted.

After the Stone Age, the era we experienced was the Wood Age. It was an era that was completely different from other native civilizations.”

“Due to the lack of metal, we set our sights on the plants that were the easiest to obtain. Although metal resources were scarce, the vegetation resources were extremely abundant, and there was no lack of plants with special characteristics.

“Some of us who are talented think of ways to increase the production of plants and cultivate plants with special uses. It can barely be considered a change in productivity.”

“For this reason, our biological sciences have advanced quite early. Even now, biology is our forte.”

“It’s a pity that plants are still plants. We can’t expect plants to synthesize non-existent elements with other elements, right? This is no longer within the scope of lifeforms. The chemical reaction of lifeforms can only change the distribution of atoms, and the synthesis of new elements will involve nuclear reactions inside atoms. Normal plants can’t form such an environment at all.” “Therefore, we waited for a long time before the opportunity to develop finally arrived—a meteor shower.”

“A meteor shower from who knows how long ago arrived at our parent galaxy. These meteorites contained a large amount of metal resources, which became an opportunity for us to improve.”

“But why is it just an opportunity and not a direct revolution for us? The reason is very simple. A large number of meteorites fell on our mother planet, causing a serious mass extinction. 99% of the creatures died in this mass extinction.” For a civilization that doesn’t have the ability to step into space, the threat of meteorites is fatal. Not only will a large number of plants and animals perish, but we will also be on the verge of extinction.”

“Although some of the necessary survival plants we cultivated happened to have extremely strong adaptability and allowed us to survive this crisis, our population still plummeted and it took us a long time to recover.”

After that, things were basically no different from ordinary civilizations. Through the large amount of metal brought by the meteorite, we produced innovation after innovation.”

Because these metals are hard to come by, we are extremely rare in their use. We have long understood that these are non-renewable resources, and because of the origin of these metals, we quickly set our sights on space. In order to obtain metals, we have to enter space.”

“First, we used these metals to enter the depths of the Earth’s crust and dig out the extremely rare metal deposits hidden inside the planet.”

“Then, we used these remaining mineral deposits to ascend into space. We tried our best to go to the ring of another planet closest to us. There were a large number of metal meteorites in these rings. In the end, we entered a virtuous cycle and gradually transitioned to the interstellar space era.

Although it took much longer than ordinary civilizations, we still began our expansion of the universe.”

“However, during this process, we gradually discovered the secrets of our galaxy…”

At this point, the Exiled executive took a deep breath. It seemed that every time he recalled this matter, he would subconsciously feel angry.

We discovered that the reason why our galaxy is lacking in metals is because this place has been excavated.”

“There’s a foreign civilization that treats this place as a ‘mine’ and has taken away most of the mineral deposits on the planets, leaving only asteroids that are ‘not worth mining’.

“They didn’t consider how much such behavior would affect the civilization here at all. We know that this is the arrogance of a high-level civilization, but we still developed an extreme hatred for it because it’s all thanks to that civilization that we’re living such a difficult life.”

This hatred eventually evolved into extreme racism. We began to hate all civilizations except us, and in order not to suffer again, we did the same thing. If they do this, can’t we do the same?”

“Therefore, we began to crazily seize resources. After destroying our galaxy group, we did not stop and continued to plunder other galaxies.”

“We have also suffered failures in this process, but we have never been destroyed. We continue to make a comeback with our superb biotechnology.” The benefits of this plunder gradually made us addicted to it. Even after our resources were very abundant, we still didn’t stop plundering and became a group of raiders.

“And because of extreme racism, we have also committed unbelievable evils. We have destroyed all civilizations that we have plundered, and trillions of creatures have been slaughtered by us.”

“To use the words we know to describe it, we are a group of xenophobics…” Such words sounded harsh to the Silent Empire, and the Silent Empire’s eyes were a little erratic.

This was because these former higher-dimension invaders had done something even worse. They had directly destroyed a plane, and the number of creatures inside was probably much greater.

However, the Exiled didn’t notice this. Instead, they continued to talk about their past.

“Until one day, we encountered the scribes. To be precise, they took the initiative to look for us because our extinction seriously affected their observation records. Furthermore, we destroyed many of their observation stations. They came to cause trouble.”

“Then, we were taught a lesson. We, who were at the peak of our power, were beaten half to death and were almost wiped out.”

However, this also woke us up from our greed and hatred. Looking back, we have already committed many unforgivable sins. We didn’t even find the civilization that mined in our parent galaxy. Instead, we vented our anger on the weaker civilizations…”

“Although morality is not that important in the interstellar society, we are a sentimental species to begin with. Even if we have genetic technology to control our emotions, we are unwilling to transform into rational machines. In the end, we still feel a heartfelt regret for our past actions.”

This isn’t a feint for survival. In fact, we were already prepared to commit suicide back then, but suicide is a choice to escape. We still chose to ask the scribe to let us atone for our past.”

“You know what happened after that. The scribe did give us a chance to come to this Exile Galaxy, and we also became the Exiled to do something-to stop an Extermination Civilization that killed as many as we did in the past.”

In order to deal with this future enemy, we’ve been building the Hell Defense Line since we entered this place. We’re always prepared to retreat from both sides. Wherever the other party comes, we’ll go to the other side of the defense line and trap the other party here with the cage generator of the scribe. We’ll fight a war with us that only one party can win.”

“As for the scribe, he took the opportunity to tell us about the Wound and instructed us to use it to improve ourselves.”

“Ever since the Hunter entered this galaxy, we immediately confirmed that this civilization was the Exterminator we were waiting for. Therefore, we activated the machine without hesitation and trapped them here with us.”

However, after your reminder, we increasingly feel that the scribes have a motive for asking us to come here. Why didn’t they appear when we destroyed the galaxy? With their standards, they could have stopped us when we destroyed their observation station. They are indeed a group of nasty fellows.”

“Perhaps they are trying to trigger the void here…”

The upper echelons of the Exiled kept analyzing their guesses and guessed the scribe’s goal.

However, the Silent Empire hesitated after hearing their history. In the end, they couldn’t help but remind them,

[Speaking of which, have you found the Observation Terminal in your parent galaxy, which is also the observation station of the scribe you mentioned?] f(r)eewebn(o)vel.com

[Or rather, according to our understanding, is there a possibility that they were the ones who dug up the mines on your mother planet?]

Upon hearing the content of the communication, the entire upper echelons of the Exiled fell silent, as if they had never thought of it that way..
