Chapter 1062: Chapter 932: The First Exoplanetary Exploration

This relic guardian that has been perched on the moon for millions of years, with a visually estimated length of at least ten kilometers, is arguably the oldest in this star system and indeed extraordinarily powerful.

Even though its mind is chaotic and muddled, the unique environment and unmatched accumulation allow Aiven to feel a stronger oppression than the Jet Black Dragon in the Netherworld’s home turf.

Besides using the Titan Banquet to refine earth, wind, water, and fire, or Angie transformed into the Golden Holy Spear · Lance of Longinus.

Aiven’s regular attack methods can hardly penetrate the hexagonal mental barrier it triggers.

However.

This guardian, who shouldn’t have lost its subjective consciousness long ago, instinctively merged its flesh tightly with this celestial body to gain greater power.

So...

After three booms that almost shook the entire planet.

The living fossil witnessing five epochs of the Herag Star completely disappeared in a pure white Light of Peace. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Besides leaving Aiven with a dazzling eight points of Divinity.

There’s also a multicolored piece, a fusion of rules from at least five epochs, almost like a waste product or large pollution source - the Moon Divine Position.

Obviously, the so-called Moon God before was merely the extension of the guardian’s power.

If it hadn’t gone completely mad.

Perhaps relying on such a combo reaching the limits of a demigod and countless energy-devouring beasts beneath the surface world, it might start attempting to charge toward Tier 6 True God.

Aiven turned to Olivia, who had descended beside him from the Rose Soul status in human form:

"Captain Hesi, I think this object may suit Miss Moonstone, requesting to hand it over."

Smiling, he handed the Moon Divine Position and another piece flickering with pure silver light, the Morning Star Divine Position, to her.

Olivia rolled her eyes slightly at him before accepting the two divine positions.

Although dissatisfied with the title "Captain," she already had ideas for these two vaguely linked divine positions.

As Aiven mentioned, the power nature is indeed quite suitable for her, provided she completes the Truth Embodiment.

Thus.

The three divine positions of Harvest, Wind and Rain, and Morning Star from the Feathered Serpent God all have their places: Harvest went to Angie, Wind and Rain to Anita.

Aiven also believed that riding the tide of the era, they would find their own paths.

Then, he turned to face everyone, clapped his hands gently:

"Ladies and gentlemen, as per our initial plan, starting now, we’ll take a month to transform this place into our most solid Celestial Fortress!"

And then... initiate humanity’s first interstellar exploration beyond our system."

As soon as he finished speaking.

"Oh~"

While others were still cheering in excitement.

Snap—!

Milan, dressed impeccably in a white suit, snapped his fingers, and a door opened in mid-air.

Rustle...

Endless soil and rocks poured in from the asteroid belt of this fixed star system, backfilling the complex underground world opened by countless years of the energy-devouring beasts within the moon.

This marked the official start of their planetary transformation plan.

...

Boom!

A meteorite was captured by the moon’s gravity, and as it was gradually falling toward the already cratered lunar surface, it inexplicably exploded.

"Alright, the defense system test is complete, not even an extraordinary specializing in psychic paths could stealthily approach here."

The time quickly advanced to a month later.

Although the moon’s surface appeared unchanged.

In near-earth lunar orbit, eight enormous spheres with a faint golden glow have appeared - the Starlink Defense System.

They are eight one-hundred-meter diameter, semi-mechanical, semi-flesh structured, giant biological weaponry, code-named Eye Demon.

A huge eye occupies two-thirds of the sphere, with a bloodthirsty mouth full of fangs below, and from around the sphere’s sides extend ten smaller eyes attached to branches.

Somewhat resembling the Relic Guardian.

Each Eye Demon, modified using Flesh Puppet, Bioenergy Conversion Switch, and Mechanical Body technology, has been endowed by Aiven with a point of Divinity from the Relic Guardian.

Equipped with powerful psychic abilities and various technological armaments, they constantly trigger their mental barriers; even deities on Herag Star can’t spot them from such a long distance.

Just like the Purifier of the Muriyan Civilization, this Starlink Defense System will be the outermost barrier of the Celestial Fortress.

Meanwhile, the inside of the moon has also transformed greatly.

In this space within the Moon’s interior, all plants, fungi, insects with various luminescent devices... except for necessary research samples.

Were completely eradicated and burned, not leaving behind even the smallest cell.

Of course, the green band that runs through the view like a river—the Elemental Light River, as the foundation of the ecosystem, was perfectly preserved.

Relying on this energy source that is distinctly different from the Sun.

A group of Wizards from the Life Tree School recreated a new lunar ecosystem, based on the Broken Star Sea creatures most adapted to the spirit-rich environment of Herag Star.

Furthermore, a group of new magical creatures has already been born here.

Previously created by Angie, the original life embryo named "Seed of Birth," with Golden Chain as its true name, can combine with various organisms in the Material World.

To become a new species—Fairies, also known as Demons.

It proves that.

The exceedingly spirit-rich environment here is truly the most suitable place for Demons to live.

Those Flower Elves, Tree Elves, Cat Elves, Fox Spirits... plants, animals, all adapt excellently to the environment here.

Moreover, these magical creatures can coordinate the ecosystem’s operation and further modify this underground world, making it more conducive for human survival.

Of course, Aiven would not forget the most important goal of this journey—Civilization Relic: Catrio’s Wheel.

Which is the circular dome spanning the entire planet’s circumference within the Moon.

Effect: Time, space, matter, energy are all dominated and transformed by it.

By providing energy or matter, Catrio’s Wheel can teleport specific targets beneath the dome to any corner of the universe.

The only regret is, even with the zero groundbreaking wisdom of the Zero Civilization, they only grasped a fraction of the Observer Civilization’s technology, thus the destination of teleportation is completely random.

However.

This is not an insurmountable difficulty, when science is insufficient, mysticism comes to aid.

With Milan, the Crowned Wizard who stands out in the entire Fifth Era.

Mastering a series of Space-Time Witchcraft including Observing Time Line, Life Player, Space Jumpboard... to manipulate this Civilization Relic.

Should be able to maximize the power of this magical creation.

"Start!"

Under the eager eyes of a large group of people, Aiven waved his hand to issue the start command.

Buzz—!

In the silver-white dome powered by ten Artificial Suns, glowing patterns lit up in succession.

Whizz!

A dozen small probes, similar to the Eye Demon in size, suddenly disappeared in front of everyone’s eyes.

Quickly, a completely unfamiliar starry sky appeared in the projection image before them.

Though with the legacy of the Predecessors, they seemingly already qualify to initiate the Interstellar Great Navigation era.

Yet now, the people of Herag Star, like the Atrean People or Anuma People during the Age of Navigation, are entering this cosmic family as the roles of Aboriginals.

Since there is no power of the Observer Civilization, caution is of course necessary.

Sending probes for preliminary exploration is rightly warranted.

The optimal outcome is finding a habitable planet with an ecological environment similar to Herag Star, devoid of other intelligent life forms; the basic result is discovering spatial scales corresponding to the Material World and Spirit Realm, to prepare for further exploration.

With Aiven’s power assisting, these small probes, aside from being unable to link with the collective unconscious sea of intelligent beings of Herag Star.

Possess all reaction mechanisms of normal organisms, can achieve real-time communication by using the Spirit Realm as a relay.

And can even serve as space-time landmarks, once a habitable planet is determined, precise positioning can be directly achieved with Milan’s power.

"Let’s see, where is this?... 12,000 light-years away, huh, what is that dark thing?"

Before they could clearly see the scene opposite, the probe was caught by a Black Hole and torn apart.

Aiven remained unfazed.

"Normal occurrence, continue."

Buzz—!

However, after just one day, Aiven, Milan, and everyone’s faces turned green.

Instead of an exploration journey, it’s more fittingly described as the Cosmic Execution Manual or One Thousand and One Ways to Die for a Cosmic Adventurer.

Fixed Stars, Black Holes, Gamma-ray bursts, White Dwarfs, Supernova explosions...

For some reason, random targets tend to appear near massive celestial bodies.

Yet, during the 182nd mechanical experiment.

"There it is, what is that?"
