Chapter 159: Crisis Fighters?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“We hope that every crisis fighter can put aside their prejudices and forget about the past, and move the civilization’s position to our sanctuary.”

“I know you will have doubts about this, but I believe that you will understand us very soon.”

“The Benevolent Host will always open our borders to you. We look forward to the day when we will join hands with each other and not become eliminated.”

With that, the holographic projection of the Benevolent Host dissipated, revealing the Milky Way’s star map that seemed to have grown larger in red.

The representatives of the civilizations present looked at each other and fell silent.

Just now, the Benevolent Host had shared their experience in fighting the corpse invasion in ancient times.

Although they were wary of the request to move their civilization to the territory of the Awakened Empire, the reputation and trust of the former Observer made them hesitate.

If it was as the Benevolent Host had said, and the corpse invasion had the terrifying ability of assimilation, then every destroyed civilization would become a sharp blade that was swung at its companions.

However, any civilization would be extremely cautious when it came to such a major event as transferring the civilization forward. The Benevolent Host seemed to have known that they could not be trusted immediately.

Therefore, they did not immediately let the Milky Way civilizations make a decision but set a deadline for a reply.

[ In order to ensure that the corpse invasion does not use other civilizations to strengthen itself, we will cremate civilizations that have not accepted asylum after a period of time. ]

[ 1 hope you can understand our concerns. You have to believe that we are indeed thinking of everyone. ]

The seemingly negotiating but actually threatening words forced the civilizations to treat it seriously, frantically verifying whether the undead was as terrifying as the Benevolent Host said.

However, the corpse civilization that was expanding at a terrifying speed completely crushed all the probing fleets with its powerful strength, failing to let these civilizations obtain any results.

The Star Alliance, which controlled a large number of stargates, had started a war with the vanguard fleet of the corpse invasion in order to protect their stargate network.

However, they ended up in a fiasco in the end. They had to destroy many stargates that were about to be captured before they retreated to prevent the corpse invasion from relying on those stargates to expand further.

A large number of dead soldiers reminded these civilizations of the bee colony, but the undead army was much more terrifying.

The number of dead had already exceeded the total number of young civilizations in the Milky Way. It was hard to imagine where the undead had gotten so many corpses. Some even speculated that they had been hoarding the dead since ancient times.

This conjecture was quickly acknowledged by many, and it further shook the determination of these civilizations to defend their mother planet.

“If we don’t join the Benevolent Host, then what we will have to face… How many civilizations of the Milky Way Era would die? Will we also become one of the dead?”

“Perhaps… Only by abandoning all species and consciousness barriers and allowing the entire galaxy to gather into one civilization, as the Benevolent Host had said, can we survive this crisis…”

Such despairing news kept spreading among the people of various civilizations. Even if the civilization governments tried their best to restrict it, they could not stop the rumors from spreading, making the infiltration agencies of these civilizations suspect that there was someone with ill intentions behind it.

Even though the origin of these undead had yet to be determined, the horror of the corpse invasion had already become a reality.

Some civilizations could not resist the increasing pressure at home and chose to head to the sanctuary of the Benevolent Host.

It was a huge circular world, located in the territory of the Benevolent Host.

The Observer had settled many native civilizations on the planet, and now it was the turn of interstellar civilizations to live there.

A large number of spaceships carrying countless people began to move from all over the Milky Way to the sanctuary, and the Benevolent Host was building a large number of interstellar fortresses at the border, as if preparing to fight the corpse invasion in these places.

They seemed to be very proficient in dealing with this crisis, and their skillful attitude further shook the Milky Way civilization.

The supervision of the Galaxy Community began to decline. Some civilizations chose to join the Benevolent Host one after another and became the crisis fighters recognized by the Benevolent Host.

The Benevolent Host promised to let them return after the crisis was over and reward them for their struggle in the corpse invasion.

However, not all civilizations had chosen this path. There were still many civilizations that were still observing for various reasons and would not mobilize their forces until the last moment.

The Seculus Vengeance Crusade was one of them. After experiencing the life-and-death war with the Keen Empire, they only believed in themselves now.

Even though they knew that what awaited them was an undead army that could be the sum of several galactic eras, as well as the cremations of their compatriots in the galaxy, none of them felt fear and enthusiastically organized the war mobilization.

Other than these fanatical civilizations, there were many other civilizations that chose not to join because of other lost empires.

These lost empires were like their gods. Even if they were not vassal civilizations, they wanted the reactions of these lost empires.

Among them, the Administrator was the most affected because they felt that the lost robotic empire didn’t seem to be interested in the corpse invasion.

With doubts about the story told by the Benevolent Host, they hoped that the Administrator would give them another answer.

Naturally, the Pyro Alliance could not be excluded when it came to the civilizations that refused to join the Benevolent Host.

All the civilizations knew that the Pyro Alliance had always been looking to the Observer for direction, so they were surprised by their refusal to accept protection.

However, the Pyro Alliance did not elaborate further. Instead, they were busy with their own matters.

On this day, the Pyro Alliance, which was still searching for traces of the corpse invasion in history, received a special message.

Although the communication in the Milky Way had become extremely chaotic, the Pyro Alliance did not let go of any signal. They had maintained smooth communication all along, so they easily received the message.

“Servant Paradise? How could this group of xenophobic mechanical servants…”

Some people were confused about the origin of the communication, but they still read the contents and were shocked.

This news came from a guy who had long been removed from their name. This guy had accepted the transformation of the Servant Paradise and abandoned his original physical body to become an alien.

But now, the person who had been removed from their list had sent an important message.

[ To my teacher: ]

[ Teacher, this is the last time I’m going to convey this message to you in this capacity. From now on, I will live on as a master, and the memories of the Pyro Alliance will be sealed in the depths of my memory. ]

[ My civilization has made some discoveries regarding this corpse invasion and has confirmed that the one controlling the dead is a type of fungus. ]

[ Just like the common caterpillar fungus, these parasitic fungi control the movements of the corpse. ]

[ Due to the fact that the infection rate is too fast, like a disease, we have decided to call it caterpillar fungus disease instead of corpse invasion. ]

[ The detailed data has also been sent over. ]

[ Don’t think that I’ve betrayed my cute mechanical servants. You can’t imagine how good this place is. ]

[ I’ve discussed it with the other masters and the mechanical servants before deciding that 1’11 be the one to deliver this message. ]

[ After all, you’ve worked very hard.. Children who work hard should be rewarded! ]
