Chapter 579: The Two Brained Man


    Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion


    Within the darkness of space, a curvature airship was slowly approaching Earth’s spaceport.


    Inside the ship’s living cabin was a group of strange humanoid figured creatures that had gathered and were having some small talk. There was tension in the air.


    Their skin had a greyish yellow undertone, was hairless, and seemed rough. There were a total of four limbs on their body with three fingers extended from their palm, and there were two lumps that grew atop their heads looking just like a camel’s humps. They also had an average height of about 2.5 meters, and it made them seem like small giants.


    They came from an area 200 light years away from Earth and were referred to by the humans as the Dicerebral Men.


    Through the evolution process, their brain had separated into two isted and mutually interacting brains. Each set of hands were controlled by a different brain, and this unique biological structure allowed them to naturally have the ability to work on separate tasks.


    Within this group of Dicerebral Men were high ranking officials from their government. Some were the brightest minds in their scientific field, others were specialized in surveince, while others were decision makers. It could be called a gathering of the elites but the truth was, ever since they arrived, they had rather limited movement aside from a few areas.


    The living cabin had no additional modifications. Everything was based on the stock model. For example, the floor and the walls only had ayer of anti-slip frosted metal. Aside from the light above their heads that were constructed with an unknown technique along with a smart surveince robot, there were not many traces of technology from a highly advanced civilization.


    However, even this odd little discovery made a deep impression on them.


    "The difference is too great. We probably won’t even be able to build such airships within a thousand years!" An expert in raw material lightly stroked the smooth, reflective armoredyer of the outer region of the living cabin with his palms. He sighed while the rest of his arms were raised in excitement.


    Before they came, he would always carry a small knife along with him in secrecy. The knife was no longer than a finger and was made of their civilization’s hardest material to date. That particr knife was still impossible to manufacture on an industrial scale and could only be created on a small scale within ab.


    However, even if he attempted to scratch the material with the de for an entire two years, the edge of the de would do nothing to the frosted metal on the ground, not to mention the extremely smooth wall. Even after the edges were sanded off, he still would not be able to make a scratch on the surface.


    "After all this ship belongs to an advanced civilization, it’s impossible for us to imagine the scale of their technology. Without advanced technology in raw material, it would not be able to withstand the impact of radiation pressure." A physicist shook his head, and immediately afterward, he said, "I’m more curious about the principles behind their curvature engine technology. Even a glimpse of it would do wonders!"


    "It’s impossible, they definitely won’t disclose any military tech to us." Full of despair, a high-level government official said, "Even if we got hold of the technology, it would still be useless. After this negotiation, we’d be banned from further developing any military technology, and the human’s war fleet would permanently be stationed in our star system."


    The atmosphere suddenly intensified.


    This meet up was not so much of a negotiation. Instead, it would be more like the signing of an unconditional surrender treaty as theypletely surrendered to an advanced civilization mightier than they were. There was essentially no room for bargaining. In fact, they had nothing against the humans, and it had reached a situation where it was regarding the life and death of their own civilization. Those who were with them would live while those who went against them would die!


    Five years ago, two vessels from the human war fleet appeared in their star system.


    The humans had decrypted the Dicerebral Man’snguage, and began sending messages to every avable channel, advising them to yield. This caused mass panic in their ranks.


    A dayter, their previous leader strongly refused the advice and caused a massive war to begin.


    The Dicerebral Man’s technology had advanced them into a star civilization and they wre close to bing an interster civilization. After umting for a few hundred years, the numbers they boasted in their war fleet in space was not something tough at. The Dicerebral Men organized the hundreds of ships in their fleet to advance toward the direction of the human war fleets.


    Only... As hundreds from their war fleets appeared and lighted up space around them, a dazzling light that was as bright as thousands of suns appeared before wiping out their defensive forces in a simrly dazzling manner.


    Within ten days, the human war fleet closed in on an inhabited. Under the immense pressure of extinction, their hardliner leader was relieved from duty and the first action their new leader took was to announce their surrender to the humans, thus ending the war.


    ...


    Airships gradually flew towards the spaceport, with an apanying human officer. All the Dicerebral Men had already entered the port and wereter transferred to an open-space ship before they were rushed to Earth.


    Compared to the rough and rigid living cabin used by the military, the interior of the open-space ship was undeniably much more luxurious. It was equipped with various advanced technological perks that awed them. A few of the Dicerebral Men that were bound to the seats felt a little out of their ce.


    "O Great Ones from the almighty civilization, is there anywhere we can view the scenery outside from?" A Dicerebral Man carefully asked the human officer apanying them. Before they arrived, they went through training in the humannguage. Aside from a different structure in the ent and structure, nothing else stood out enough to obstruct theirmunication.


    The officer gave them the poker face before he nodded andmanded, "A.I. activate the panoramic virtual scenery!"


    "Understood!"


    After the reply from a soft and gentle female voice, the surrounding walls of the ship immediately became transparent, and the surrounding suddenly darkened. It was as if everyone was riding in the sky as the sudden changes in the environment caused everyone to subconsciously exim.


    "This.... This is incredible." A Dicerebral Man scientist probed as he carefully stood up. If it wasn’t for the feeling of solid ground under his foot, he would have believed that he was really in space.


    The virtual scenery technology... The Dicerebral Men had this technology as well but this... This felt too real and they would be hard-pressed to tell its authenticity. It was simply shocking.


    "Everyone look, behind you!" At this moment a Dicerebral Man eximed.


    One by one, everyone turned their heads and looked. It only took a glimpse for them to subconsciously hold their breaths.


    "God!"


    "This is amazing!:


    It was an unimaginably huge military port shaped like a beehive, with tens of thousands of war fleets under a gigantic metal mp. They seemed like rows after rows of soldiers awaiting their orders, arranged neatly line by line.


    When they thought that any single one of these airships could easily destroy their entire civilization, their entire body went numb. It was as if an electrical current was running through them. It even made a few of them feel like crawling on the ground. The might of this highly advanced civilization along with their technology left them in immense awe.


    Not long after they had eximed, another humongous structure entered their sight. At first, everyone thought it was aary satellite that was sooning to life but as they approached, it was only until everyone saw its silvery-smooth reflective surface and its impossibly unnatural, perfectly spherical shape that they began to feel uneasy.


    "O Respectful Great Ones, could you tell us, the humble, what those are?" The high ranking government official of the Dicerebral Men asked in a trembling voice.


    The young officer showed a slight smile that carried a sense of self-pride and said, "This is aary fortress with a diameter of 500 kilometers. Its mass is equivalent to a twentieth of your home, and once filled with anti-matter fuel, it would be able to travel for up to 6,000 years at 50 times the speed of light."


    50 times the speed of light multiplied by 6,000 years would be 300,000 light years.


    Once everyone heard this, they subconsciously drew in a breath of cold air. Their entire body was trembling with fear. It was known that the entire size of the Milky Way was only around 100,000 light years, but this humongous satellite-likeary fortress could actually fly out of it!


    The young officer only said a sentence before he went silent. Although the sentence he just uttered was not technically a lie, it was considered an exaggeration from a certain perspective. The interior of theary fortress was extremely huge. However, even when excluding all the necessary equipment, only a third of the area could be used as storage for the anti-matter fuel. Even with the current state of the humans, they would still require all the produced anti-matter from a Dyson Sphere within a hundred years in order to fill it up.


    As for the current anti-matter storage of thisary fortress, it could only sustain its flight for about 5,000 light years.
