Chapter 491, Thunder Empire

After leaving the Belda civilization, the expedition team continued to wander around the center of the Milky Way very casually, recording everything they saw, heard, and heard along the way, one galaxy after another, one civilization after another.

"Old Tang, look at these star maps, combined with these time and space ocean currents, the entire Milky Way is like the brain of a creature, and these time and space ocean currents are like nerve choroids, forming a perfect brain pattern."

As time goes by, more and more places are visited, and the star maps drawn are becoming more and more detailed and huge. Combined with the star maps purchased from various civilizations and the Pas civilization, a huge Milky Way star map appeared in front of Dong Zhifei. Looking at this huge star map, Dong Zhifei said thoughtfully.

"It is a bit like, but I think it is more like a small cell. Do you think the entire universe we live in is a huge life form?"

"These galaxies, time and space ocean currents, etc. are all the smallest units of cells, blood vessels, nerves, etc. in this huge life form."

Tang Boyuan touched his chin and said whimsically.

"You are more daring than me, but it seems that this inference makes sense. Is it true that Pangu created the world, or that a god incarnated and evolved the universe?"

Dong Zhifei thought of some stories in myths and legends.

"That is a myth. We are scientists, so let's not talk nonsense. Let's study it and see where we should go next."

Tang Boyuan smiled and shook his head. As a cosmologist, he is a genuine materialist and does not believe in myths and teleportation. As for gods, they are just creatures with more advanced cultivation. With Tang Boyuan's current cultivation, they are no different from gods in the eyes of the ancients.

Opening the virtual star map, the location of the expedition team is already far away from the Orion spiral arm, more than 10,000 light years away, and has come to the most prosperous location in the center of the Milky Way. In this location, there are powerful civilizations everywhere, and even the galactic overlord civilizations are already very dense.

The stars here are more dense, and the star systems are richer than the outer areas. Here, any star system has hundreds of planets and dozens of naturally formed life planets. Some particularly prosperous star systems even have hundreds of planets and hundreds of life planets.

On the orbit of the same planet, you can see several life planets of the same size, the same revolution and rotation speed. There are a large number of massive planets in the star system, and the gravity should be relatively chaotic, but on the contrary, everything in these star systems is in order, giving birth to one life planet after another and a prosperous life system.

After truly seeing the richness of the prosperous area in the center of the Milky Way, Tang Boyuan and Dong Zhifei truly understood why the Orion spiral arm would be barren like a desert in the eyes of these civilized people in the center of the Milky Way, because compared with here, even the most prosperous starlight on the other side of the Orion spiral arm is like a grain of light compared to the bright moon, and it is simply incomparable.

"How about we go to the Thunder Empire?"

Dong Zhifei pointed to a large red area on the star map. In the most prosperous area in the center of the Milky Way, the Thunder Empire occupies a large area of ​​the star field. There is no doubt that the strength of this Thunder Empire is so powerful. The Thunder Empire is the second level 5 cosmic civilization in the northern Milky Way besides the Purple Wheel Eye civilization, and one of the five level 5 cosmic civilizations in the entire Milky Way.

The civilizations that the expedition team encountered along the way were all level 3 cosmic civilizations. They had not been to the galactic overlord civilization yet. Now that they were just close to the Thunder Empire, Dong Zhifei wanted to see the most powerful level 5 cosmic civilization in the Milky Way.

"I would also like to say that, the level 5 cosmic civilization Thunder Empire, I also want to see how prosperous and powerful the Thunder Empire is."

Tang Boyuan had an excited look on his face. He had seen a lot of ordinary level 3 and level 2 cosmic civilizations, and it was time to see the powerful civilization standing at the top of the food chain in the Milky Way.

In the prosperous void, more than 100 space battleships and spaceships of the expedition team are advancing rapidly in the void. Because there are so many densely populated stars around, the stars are bright and dazzling in any place in the starry sky. The darkness that can be seen everywhere in the Orion spiral arm seems to disappear completely at once.

The void and space-time ocean currents leading to the Thunder Empire began to become gradually congested. Spaceships, spacecrafts, etc. from all directions formed a huge steel torrent in the void.

"These should be the spaceships of the Thunder Empire. All of them are branded with the logo of Thunder. Just looking at these spaceships, you can imagine the power of the Thunder Empire. There is no spaceship of the Thunder Empire in the void that is small or medium-sized. All are large spaceships."

Tang Boyuan looked at the void outside. There are many routes to the Thunder Empire, but every route is very congested every day. Moreover, before reaching the Thunder Empire, the spaceships in the void are so dense that they have to be controlled in time and space.

In the void near the expedition team, a huge fleet was advancing in the void. Each spaceship was a large spaceship with a white lightning logo on it. The Thunder Empire was the only civilization in the entire Milky Way that used this logo. As for other civilizations that used this logo, they had long been wiped out by the Thunder Empire.

"Level 5 cosmic civilization, standing at the top of the Milky Way, if the Thunder Empire doesn't even have this confidence, I would find it strange."

Dong Zhifei nodded. The Thunder Empire was well-known in the entire Milky Way. The purple eyes of the Purple Wheel Eye civilization and the lightning logo of the Thunder Empire were synonymous with walking sideways in the northern Milky Way.

"According to the intelligence data we bought from the Pas civilization, the Thunder Empire was born about 8 billion years ago, at the end of the second stage of the Milky Way's history. It became a Level 4 cosmic civilization 7 billion years ago and a Level 5 cosmic civilization 2 billion years ago. Its strength ranks third among the five Level 5 cosmic civilizations. It is a very powerful civilization."

Tang Boyuan recalled the introduction of the Thunder Empire in the intelligence data he bought from the Pas civilization. The Thunder Empire occupies a large prosperous star field in the center of the Milky Way, with hundreds of millions of star systems and billions of life planets. It has a high level of technology and is an extremely powerful civilization.

"It can occupy hundreds of millions of star systems in the most prosperous place in the Milky Way. Compared with such a powerful civilization, our empire is really insignificant."

With a long sigh, Tang Boyuan also looked at the void in the direction of the Thunder Empire with envy. There was a dazzling scene there, like a world where gods live. It was very dazzling and radiant, as if countless pearls gathered together, and the starry shore that once made the empire excited seemed to be eclipsed.

"Don't be too self-deprecating. We have a short history of development. If we are given billions of years, our technology will definitely surpass theirs. By then, our empire will also have a vast star field in the center of the Milky Way."

Dong Zhifei's eyes also looked towards the direction of the Thunder Empire, flashing with light.

The expedition team continued to advance in the void. The Thunder Empire strictly prohibited any spacecraft from entering the territory of the Thunder Empire through warp flight. Once discovered, it would be hunted down by the Thunder Empire with all its strength. Therefore, even if it was a spacecraft of the same galactic overlord, it could only slowly advance into the Thunder Empire in the space-time ocean current.

The closer to the Thunder Empire, the more prosperous the void becomes. In the galaxies around the Thunder Empire, all of them are affiliated cosmic civilizations of the Thunder Empire. These affiliated cosmic civilizations are very dedicated to serving their own suzerain country, maintaining smooth waterways, handling emergencies in a timely manner, and diverting large teams, etc.

"Ding! Welcome to the Thunder Empire. Please inform us of your identity and purpose."

After passing the last space-time current, the expedition finally arrived at the Falmouth Galaxy, a galaxy at the edge of the Thunder Empire. As soon as they left the entrance of the space-time current, a message was sent to the expedition.

Tang Boyuan did not hide his identity and reported the name of the empire. Facing a level 5 cosmic civilization, hiding his identity would not have any effect. Maybe before entering the Thunder Empire, the Thunder Empire had already checked all the visiting spacecrafts clearly.

"Welcome guests from the Yanhuang Empire. You can dock at Spaceport BZ454. Flight instructions have been sent."

According to the instructions sent by the Falmos Galaxy Spacetime Management, more than 100 space battleships of the expedition team arrived at Spaceport BZ454. There are too many spaceships in space. One after another, huge spaceports are neatly arranged in the void. All spaceports are on the periphery of the galaxy. In the inner circle of the galaxy, the void is even busier, and there is no extra space to build spaceports.

Spaceport BZ454 is a spaceport dedicated to receiving merchant ships of the galactic hegemony civilization. Therefore, compared with other ordinary spaceports, it is relatively less congested. The spaceships coming and going are all from the galactic hegemony civilizations of the Milky Way.

There are only 155 galactic overlord-level civilizations in the entire Milky Way galaxy, and 156 empires in total. So when the more than 100 space battleships and spaceships of the Imperial Expedition entered the space port, they immediately attracted the attention of other galactic overlord-level civilizations in the space port.
