Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones-Chapter 406: Worm Civilization

A Gravity-level Demonic Eye?

A surge of anger suddenly rose in Tom’s heart.

In this Milky Way, not to mention those lower-level Demonic Eyes at the Electroweak and Strong Nuclear stages, as their space travel capabilities are limited and it would be difficult for them to rush to participate in that war.

A Gravity-level Demonic Eye that had already entered the Demonic Eye Nation and participated in that war, yet there was still one that slipped through?

Even without the matter of the Space-level Demonic Eye extinguishing Human Civilization, having experienced the previous Demonic Eye infection and the Purple Moon Civilization incident, Tom had long ago resolved that if he ever encountered a Demonic Eye Civilization and had the ability, he would definitely destroy it.

Knowing now that the Space-level Demonic Eye was the direct culprit behind the extinction of Human Civilization, the killing intent in Tom’s heart grew even stronger.

He must find this Gravity-level Demonic Eye and then destroy it, only then could he vent the resentment in his heart!

Tom immediately instructed Clan Leader Momolansi to ask, "Where is this Gravity-level Demonic Eye currently?"

"Based on the principle of intelligence reciprocity, this is our last question to answer in this communication with your side."

"We do not know where this Gravity-level Demonic Eye is currently hiding, because that battlefield was too chaotic at the time, and we could not fully grasp the changes that occurred there." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"However, we do know some characteristics related to this Gravity-level Demonic Eye."

"The predecessor civilization of this Gravity-level Demonic Eye called itself XXXX..."

The Recorder Civilization replied with a series of chaotic notes, which sounded vaguely like "Mo’ada will rush" or something similar to Tom’s ears.

"Let’s just transliterate it directly as ’Grey Worm’ civilization. Grey Worm sounds like ’roundworm’, which perfectly matches the disgusting parasitic existence form of the Demonic Eye that feeds on other civilizations."

Tom immediately made a decision in his heart. In the subsequent information sent by the Recorder Civilization, that name was also directly translated as "Grey Worm".

"...In the culture of the Grey Worm civilization, the meaning of this name is probably something like ’people who grew up in a warm paradise’."

After being infected by the Demonic Eye, they still retained the name Grey Worm, inheriting the culture and customs of the original Grey Worm civilization.

"They also continued these customs in their spaceship construction and aesthetics. Therefore, they were accustomed to extensively using C-shaped lines on various spaceships, were relatively averse to sharp angles, and preferred rounded shapes..."

Based on his experience dealing with the Demonic Eye, after being infected by the Demonic Eye, the creatures of a civilization would not undergo changes in their own culture and customs, apart from completely converting and being loyal to the Demonic Eye. It was quite reasonable for the Grey Worm civilization to continue its previous customs after becoming a Demonic Eye.

The information from the Recorder Civilization had ended, and it did not reply to Tom’s subsequent questions.

With a soft sigh, Tom recorded all this information.

After this matter concluded, Clan Leader Momolansi respectfully departed, and Tom’s gaze once again turned towards the vast and boundless universe.

Regarding the Recorder Civilization, Tom naturally did not completely trust it and maintained a deep sense of caution.

However, after comprehensive analysis, he still believed that the possibility of the intelligence provided by the Recorder Civilization being true was quite high. There was no problem in using this intelligence as the basis for deciding subsequent actions.

So...

"Grey Worm civilization, is it... I will search high and low, no matter what price I have to pay or how much time it takes, I will definitely find you..."

At this moment, Tom truly made up his mind.

Of course, the decision was made, but the actual execution still required careful consideration. After all, at this stage, his technological level was only at the gravity level, and he could only be considered a mid-level civilization in the Milky Way.

The hope of rapidly increasing his technological level again in a short period was also not very high.

While conducting scientific research with scientists from various intelligent life races and carrying out resource collection missions, Tom silently contemplated.

Over twenty years flew by in a hurry. Those clean aerospace carriers were once again filled with numerous supplies, and it was time to set sail again.

However, unlike the last time they set sail, this time, the number of aerospace carriers in Tom’s fleet that could carry 10 billion tons of supplies each increased from 10,000 to 20,000.

Under normal circumstances, Tom would not let his fleet size be too large.

After all, a spaceship is not just built; it also needs to be operated, maintained, and run daily, all of which are troublesome matters.

A giant aerospace carrier, with its longest dimension around 20 kilometers and width around 10 kilometers, larger than a residential mothership, would require about 10,000 of Tom’s clones for its operation, maintenance, and daily running, even with the assistance of Primal.

If it were ordinary intelligent life, it would require over 200,000 people.

Furthermore, there is a solar system not far away in space; unless there is a special strategic need, there is really no need to carry so many supplies.

But this time, the situation was different.

Because the additional 10,000 giant aerospace carriers were not carrying supplies, but rather... probes.

Special probes specifically designed by Tom, each with a mass of about 100 tons, possessing high deep space detection capabilities, and each individually equipped with gravitational wave communication devices.

Each giant aerospace carrier carried 100 million probes. 10,000 carriers meant 1 trillion probes.

Tom’s fleet then set out on the long journey once again, carrying these probes.

This time, Tom had no specific destination for the long voyage; he would fly wherever he ended up.

A significant part of the reason for leaving the solar system and starting another long voyage was also for self-concealment, to avoid staying in one place for too long and attracting unknown dangers. In any case, even during space travel, the current stage of technological development would not be affected.

As for the other part of the reason, it was naturally to scatter these probes.
