According to the intelligence obtained by the Empire, even the citizens of RotaEmpire knew of the existence of other empires besides their own, though they were unaware of their names.

What’s going on with the Feathered Warbler Empire? How is it that they have no information on other empires?

Is it truly that they’re unaware, or has the Feathered Warbler Empire's administration purposefully kept it that way?

Currently, the planets conquered by Li Shaolong were few, and the full picture remained unclear.

"Young Dragon, while attacking Feathered Warbler Empire is one objective, do not forget to continuously gather information. I want to know how far Feathered Warbler Empire is from RotaEmpire."

"Yes, Commander."

The meeting went on for a lengthy duration. There was a substantial amount of intelligence to be shared, and even a minor piece of information could potentially lead to significant shifts.

What surprised Su Chen the most was that the individual providing the most information wasn’t anyone else but Salted Fish King Black Veil.

Ever since she pledged loyalty to Su Chen, she had been residing in the main base. At some point, she had developed a relationship with Alice and would frequently engage her in conversations.

Incidentally, Alice was the one recording the meeting.

Members of the Heart Demon Clan could share all memories and knowledge. Black Veil acquired her information in this manner, directly from other Heart Demon Clans.

What astonished Su Chen was that while Black Veil had blocked her shared connection with other Heart Demon Clan members, they still warmly welcomed her. Su Chen found this characteristic of the Heart Demon Clan quite peculiar.

Regrettably, the majority of the intelligence provided by Black Veil concerned various universal races, with very little related to humanity.

Even Black Veil was uncertain. It seemed that Heart Demon Clans rarely emerged amongst humans; it was primarily amongst different universal races that the unique Heart Demon Clan species came into existence.

"With so many Heart Demon Clans, it's impossible that none exist among humans, right?" Su Chen pondered.

"I'm also not certain. I’ve received no answers from the other Heart Demon Clans," replied Black Veil, equally frustrated.

"By the way, I've just discovered explosive news. The various occurrences within the human star domain seem to be orchestrated by several powerful universal races."

Black Veil’s revelation left everyone present astonished.

The Apocalypse within the human star domain was actually orchestrated by these universal races? How did they manage it?

Up till now, the extent of the human star domain remained unknown, but it was preliminarily estimated to be at least the size of hundreds of large galaxies. To think that an Apocalypse occurred across such a vast expanse was beyond imagination.

"Is this information accurate?"

"I obtained it from a Heart Demon Clan within a Dark God. That Heart Demon Clan has just come across this information."

Su Chen contemplated. He had always wondered why so many calamities occurred in the human star domain, a mixture of natural disasters and man-made catastrophes. It never occurred to him that non-human races might be responsible.

They intend to destroy the human star domain!

"Yi Zhong, how much do you know about the secrets of your civilization?"

"I don't know much. Back then, I was just an ordinary researcher. Commander, are you suggesting..." Yuan Yizhong seemed to have realized something.

After Yuan Yizhong became an ally, he had learned a secret concerning why Qiluo Civilization was obliterated.

The secret was that the Qiluo Civilization discovered the presence of non-human entities among the human elite!

If this were to be disclosed, the entire human system would collapse rapidly. After all, if even the human elite had non-human entities among them, what about the rest of humanity?

Fear and distrust would be pervasive, leading humanity to the brink of collapse.

Yet, after the fall of the Qiluo Civilization, humanity persisted until now, which puzzled Su Chen.

Non-human entities infiltrating the human elite definitely wasn’t for the benefit of humanity. However, since the downfall of the Qiluo Civilization, there seemed to be no change in the human star domain.

What transpired in between would probably only be known when Su Chen had contact with the human elite.

The pilot phase on Earth concluded in a month, subsequently spreading to all planets within the Red Alert Empire's territories. The emergence of this game astounded many.

Especially the universal races who joined the Empire out of compulsion. They had never imagined the existence of such a magical entity.

Just a game, yet they could communicate with people from other planets. Who would believe it?

Some might have heard about certain planet names, and upon estimating, the distance between two planets could be thousands of light years. Even with warships and wormholes, it would take years to traverse such a distance. Yet, entering this game allowed them to communicate across these vast distances.

Beyond mere communication, the game also had a significant trading feature.

Intra-planet trading fees were relatively low, but inter-planet trading was expensive, with the cost escalating based on distance.

Still, many wealthy individuals were willing to pay hefty prices to trade, especially for items unique to certain planets.

Before, they would spend vast amounts of resources and time, with no guarantee of obtaining what they desired.

Now, they simply needed to trade within the game's residential area.

The next day, items bought would traverse countless stars and be delivered to their doorstep. This efficiency was unparalleled.

Without the Hyperspace Teleportation Device, achieving interstellar trade would have been virtually impossible for Su Chen.

Of course, many were curious about the game's content. Anyone who had come into contact with the Red Alert army noticed that the game's military units and weapons closely resembled those of the Red Alert Empire.

Has the Emperor of the Empire gone mad, exposing the empire's military strength?

They didn't realize that the game's units, weapons, and so forth, had been modified. If anyone believed mastering the game would expose the Red Alert Empire's weaknesses, they would be gravely mistaken.

Due to the massive player base, Alice simply divided the game's residential areas by planets. Accessing another planet's residential area only required a nominal fee.

This enabled countless players to explore beyond their home planets, experiencing the vast universe.

Earth's inhabitants were the most thrilled. Being the first to know about the interplanetary link, the moment they could access other planetary residential zones, a majority promptly paid in Red Alert currency to venture into these zones.

"This must be the residential area of Yan Yun Star. It does resemble the Yan Yun Star people we've seen. Hey, those with horns on their heads, are they the Ghost Clan?" (To be continued...)
