In fact, Li Wenyuan had some speculations about his identity as a "custodial matrix" a long time ago.

Judging from the name alone, this seems to be a comprehensive control system to maintain the normal operation of "something".

Judging from the remaining information in those human-related ruins, the "Guardianship Matrix" may be a "monitor" to ensure the smooth development of the entire galactic civilization and prevent it from dying in some inexplicable crisis.

Li Wenyuan himself is also trying to act in the galaxy according to the original responsibilities of the "Guardian Matrix". In addition to looking for human relics, he is also alert to threats that may destroy the galaxy.

But there are still many strange things, and the biggest problem is why the "custodial matrix" responsible for maintaining the normal progress of the galaxy has become such a tragic situation?

You must know that when Li Wenyuan first came here, it was really a deserted place. Even the most basic escort fleet did not exist here. The entire earth was even counting down to self-destruction.

After actually developing for so long and vaguely restoring its former glory, he knew exactly what the strength of the "Guardianship Matrix" that 0 had inherited from humanity was.

But logically speaking, there should not be anything stronger than the "Guardian Matrix" in this galaxy. Before humans use the "curtain" to cover the galaxy, it is impossible to leave threats inside that even the "Guardian Matrix" cannot deal with.

Otherwise, what's the difference between planting a bomb in your own back garden?

But the "custody matrix" has become dilapidated, which is undoubtedly very abnormal.

Even those lost empires that were forcibly promoted can still survive to this day. Why can the "Guardian Matrix", a genuine "civilization-level monitor" of mankind, be damaged so easily?

Give up the unrealistic idea that "the Guardianship Matrix is ​​a peaceful artificial intelligence without any force deterrence, so it was destroyed by some short-sighted civilization". All signs seem to point to the fact that there was an incredible person in the galaxy.

"terrorist threat".

This "threat" had a war with the "Guardianship Matrix" after humans left. At least the "Guardianship Matrix" was severely damaged.

As for whether the threat has been solved or whether it is in some kind of dormant state, this is still a mystery that needs to be found.

And Ether Dragon's statement gave Li Wenyuan a brand new guess.

"Galactic Civilization Comprehensive Tester" sounds like a comprehensive title that covers many aspects.

As we all know, the last part of the test is usually the "examination" and "evaluation".

So is the part that performs the "Galaxy Examination" also, or was, part of the "Guardianship Matrix"?

Li Wenyuan always remembered one thing, because he hadn't seen that string of characters for a long, long time, and that was:

"Guardianship matrix completion completed".

This special supplementary explanation popped up when he restarted his database and received the "Sky Veil Battleship".

He originally thought that he would gradually complete it during future exploration of the galaxy, but it turned out that there were many things related to humans in the galaxy, but not many related to the "Guardian Matrix".

The current "Guardianship Matrix" is still incomplete, and this part that has never been found is also one of the secrets and truths he has been looking for.

"...What's wrong? Oh, you are a mechanical intelligence, right? Maybe you are not interested in organic creatures like me? If you don't need a dragon, I can also help you find rare mineral deposits..."

Ether Dragon did not understand the meaning of Li Wenyuan's long silence, and regarded it as a common situation of omnics.

She had known for a long time that the spacecraft related to humans that came here was an omnic. After all, there was nothing in this spacecraft, not even the robots could be seen.

Generally speaking, only omnics will use this kind of spacecraft that does not even carry individual children. After all, multi-functional drones operated by omnics can solve most problems.

Li Wenyuan also came to his senses following the Ether Dragon's signal. He looked at the molten planets in the galaxy and understood why these planets looked like this.

The Ether Dragon laid her eggs in these planets, and the eggs themselves had incredibly high temperatures, which directly turned these planets into big furnaces.

As for why these eggs have not hatched after so long, Li Wenyuan thought for a while and sent in the fleet surrounding the galaxy.

…………

"...So, you humans are really terrifying..."

The Ether Dragon, which was surrounded by a large group of scientific research spacecraft and was being scanned, complained and said this.

At this time, a star base has been built in this galaxy by Li Wenyuan, and a fleet is parked near the base to act as a guard here.

He felt that it would be better for him to be directly responsible for the safety of the Aether Dragon and her eggs. This creature, which was born before the Big Bang, might be able to help him reveal the secrets of this universe.

Those unlucky ones who entered this place by mistake have been invited out. Fortunately, the Fire Alliance and the Space Amoeba Rescue Agency were lucky. When Hawkeye Khan saw the shocking appearance of the Aether Dragon, he felt that something was not good.

And just as he guessed, this mysterious and powerful space creature with an unpredictable background is not in a hostile relationship with the "Guardian".

Or it could be said that the Ether Dragon unilaterally maintains an incredibly friendly and affectionate attitude towards the "Guardians". Whether this situation is caused by the terrifying fleets coming here is another matter.

Now Hawkeye Khan feels that his chances of winning in the "Trial of the Great Khan" have been lowered than ever before.

Originally, he thought he could still compete with the Lone Wolf Khan, but after losing his wife and troops at Ether Dragon, his disadvantage has been infinitely magnified.

At this time, he cursed the curator in his heart for being dishonest. The "weaknesses of the Ether Dragon" provided by those guys were actually wrong! No matter how often they attacked the Ether Dragon, her scales did not change at all.

.

So Hawkeye Khan decided to ask those curators why they "take money and do nothing" while seeking guidance from his mentor.

The Fire Alliance, which has returned to the interstellar society, also disclosed this time's record of the "mythical creature" "Aether Dragon", which also made the galactic civilization understand that there is another giant beast here that seems to be related to the "Guardian"

.

This galaxy has also received a new name - "Greenhouse Dragon's Nest". After all, due to the relationship between the ether dragon and her eggs, the average temperature here is much higher than that of other galaxies.

As for Li Wenyuan, who surrounded the Aether Dragon with a large group of scientific research spacecraft, he allocated part of his scientific research capabilities to study why the Aether Dragon's eggs did not hatch.

Although he also speculated whether this situation was caused by the fact that there was only one female Ether Dragon, after actual inspection, he found that humans had solved this problem long ago, and she was parthenogenetically reproduced.

Parthenogenesis seems to be common only in more primitive creatures, but it is obvious that this law does not apply to creatures of the level of the Ether Dragon.

Everything about her was in good health, but she was quite shy about Li Wenyuan's "physical examination" method. She hesitated for a long time before reluctantly agreeing to the physical examination under the intimidation of a large fleet and concerns about her eggs.

And in the process, she also learned that the visitor from the suspected omnic civilization in front of her actually had a direct inheritance relationship with humans and was essentially a part of humans.

So she was thankful that she didn't have any bad thoughts towards human beings. If so, she might have been eliminated as an "unstable factor".

"...Have you found anything?" After the inspection, Ether Dragon asked about the inspection situation.

Although there is no expression on the behemoth's face, her anxiety and expectation can be heard from the verbal signals full of decorative symbols.

"There must be some discovery..." Li Wenyuan thought, looked at the molten planets flowing with magma, and then continued:

"It depends on whether you can accept your eggs wearing that kind of bow..."
