Three years later.

Floating Spear City, Star Glory Federation, headquarters of the Glorious Sunlight Group.

“Welcome, distinguished guests. The Meeting of the Future is about to begin. Please take the VIP channel here. Thank you.”

A beautiful, slender female employee took the VIP card from Meng Jiang’s hand and swept it over her palm. The VIP card immediately blossomed with a translucent radiance, revealing the names of three people: Meng Jiang, his grandson Meng Xiaolang, and his granddaughter Meng Lichuan.

After confirming the identities of the three, the female staff’s smile became even more brilliant. She slightly bowed in greeting and invited the three to enter.

“Wow…”

Meng Xiaolang, Meng Jiang’s grandson, who had just been promoted to a level-2 advisor in the Kunlun Fleet of the federal army, opened his eyes wide and clicked his tongue. He could tell that the female worker in front of him was not a real person but an illusion of mystic rays.

This kind of illusionary and real 3D light beam technology was not unusual in the first place. However, although it was just a portrait condensed out of mystic rays, it could scan the real VIP card. He could even vaguely smell the faint scent of camellias on the female staff’s body. When he retrieved the VIP card, the “skin” of the two parties passed off as real, which involved a lot of force field control and anti-gravity technology. It was quite advanced.

Meng Xiaolang knew that the Kunlun Fleet he was in was indeed doing the relevant research, but he did not expect that it would be dedicated to civil affairs so soon. Over the past three years, the technology of the Star Glory Federation, no, the entire civilization of mankind, had advanced by leaps and bounds!

“Sister, what is this so-called ‘Future Meeting’ trying to do? It is indeed impressive!”

Looking at the headquarters of the Glorious Sunlight Group, which was made of countless floating mountains and looked like a futuristic city, Meng Xiaolang sighed again.

No wonder he was so curious about the ‘Future Meeting’.

He was the second-level advisor of the Kunlun Fleet, and the Kunlun Fleet was one level higher than the Burning Prairie Fleet. It was one of the best fleets in the Star Glory Federation.

His sister ‘Meng Lichuan’ was a professional player under the name of ‘Team Moon Fiend’. She had just entered the top 10 in the ‘Virtual Information Contest’ where billions of professional players were competing against each other. She boasted amazing computational and deduction abilities and was the best strategical analyst.

Besides, Team Moon Fiend was backed by the Dark Moon Foundation and the investment of the Glorious Sunlight Group. They were both Meng Lichuan’s ‘owners’.

Even so, Meng Xiaolang and Meng Lichuan were not qualified to accept the invitation of the ‘Future Meeting’. They had only learned from the network and the news media that such an unprecedentedly grand meeting was about to be held and that it would answer all the questions that had been bothering them for three years. However, they were fortunate enough to be present in person because of their grandfather ‘Meng Jiang’. Meng Jiang was the best friend of ‘Vulture Li Yao’, the founder of the Glorious Sunlight Group and a super hero of the federation. That was why he was given a VIP card that was worth a fortune.

“According to the intelligence that I gathered from Team Moon Fiend, the so-called ‘Future Meeting’ should be like the ‘Magical Equipment Exposition’ of the federation, where the latest training and research results are displayed and the future direction of development is illuminated, including testing the latest models of magical equipment.

Meng Lichuan thought for a moment and said, “However, the Meeting of the Future is definitely not as simple as an ordinary Magical Equipment Exposition. It is said that several press conferences will be held in the Meeting of the Future. The experts from the federation, the imperium, and the Sanctuary Alliance, and even… the primeval experts, will show up in public and reveal the truth of the primeval relics and the secrets of the ‘Battle of Fallen Beings’ three years ago. They will also announce earthshaking news that might change the entire civilization of mankind.

“Ah…”

Meng Xiaolang stuck out his tongue. “So, the so-called ‘ancient relics’, ‘paradise’, and ‘pioneer civilization’, are all real?”

Although nobody knew what had happened in the depths of the sea of stars three years ago, all kinds of gossip had spread out through various channels. As a member of the Kunlun Fleet, Meng Xiaolang had participated in some highly confidential missions, too. Naturally, he had heard some half-truths.

“Battle of the Fallen…”

Listening to the conversation between his grandson and his granddaughter, Meng Jiang’s wrinkled face was solemn. “Li Yao perished in that battle!”

Meng Xiaolang and Meng Lichuan looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

When the three of them passed through the VIP channel, they saw that it was packed with people and reporters.

Not only were there local reporters of the Star Glory Federation, there were also reporters from various Sectors of the Imperium of True Human Beings. Some of them were even from the Sanctuary. Of course, the social system of the Sanctuary was still being rebuilt, and there was no such thing as a ‘reporter’. But a lot of the ‘watchers’ were acting as the eyes of the Sanctuary and carrying out the same duties as the reporters.

Not only were the channels on the ground packed full of people, the channels in the air were also packed with all kinds of bizarre small-scale flying machines. Now and then, interference and collisions would take place, and the flying machines would fall down with squeaking noises. In the sky even higher, countless colorful mystic rays were interweaving and crashing into each other, creating ripples that were as brilliant as the aurora. It was a unique scene that could only be produced when countless remote scanning magical equipment were activated at the same time to capture the scene of the convention from various angles.

Meng Xiaolang and Meng Lichuan had both seen big events before. Whether it was the official establishment of the Kunlun Fleet or the championship of the ‘Virtual Information Competition’, they had both seen the surging tide of reporters.

However, compared to the unprecedented scale of the battle today, the ‘tide’ of reporters that they had seen before were merely the trickling streams in the mountains.

“Why are there so many reporters?”

Meng Xiaolang was dumbfounded.

Then, they realized that their question was too silly. The reporters had every reason to swarm over.

Over the past three years, more changes had taken place in the Star Glory Federation and even the entire human civilization.

The source of all the changes, the mysterious ancient relics, was still lurking in the darkness. Nobody knew the truth.

Even Ding Lingdang, Boss Bai, Yan Liren, Long Yangjun, and the other top experts of the human civilization had vanished from the public eye and hidden themselves in the ancient relics.

As far as the public of the Star Glory Federation and most of the soldiers at the grassroots level were concerned, all they knew was that, three years ago, the federal army launched a last-ditch, desperate “Billions-of-Stars Expedition” and achieved a brilliant, miraculous victory, forcing the two superpowers in the center of the sea of stars, the Imperium of True Human Beings and the Covenant Alliance, to sign a peace treaty.

But the war was not over yet. Countless experts and elites, including the super hero Li Yao, marched into the primeval relics at the end of the sea of stars alone to explore the origin of life billions of years ago and fight the formidable enemies that were hundreds of times more terrifying than the Immortal Cultivators and the people of the Sanctuary.

They had won the difficult battle, but they had paid a high price, too.

Including ‘Vulture Li Yao’, dozens of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators and Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators had perished.

Even the ‘Giant God Soldiers’, known as the strongest ultimate weapons in the sea of stars, had lost dozens of them. The top warriors of the human civilization had suffered heavy losses.

Therefore, everybody called the battle ‘the battle of the fallen’.

The deceased had passed away, but those who survived still had to shoulder the heavy responsibility and continue on the road of thorns and flames step by step.

Maybe the fire of life ignited by the victims illuminated the direction of the survivors.

Maybe it was because the new civilization of mankind was far from running out of luck.

The three years after the ‘Battle of Fallen Stars’ were three years of rapid improvement.

Both Meng Xiaolang and Meng Lichuan had experienced the latest research results from the ancient relics in person through their own channels. What kind of brilliance could they bring out?

It was said that the so-called primeval relics were the treasures left by the ancestors of all the intelligent carbon-based creatures billions of years ago. Before Li Yao perished, he had already opened a gap in the treasures with his courage and wisdom.

It was said that the remains, last words, and precious information of almost a hundred civilizations of the pioneers were lying in the depths of the primeval relics, waiting to be explored, studied, and absorbed.

It was said that a batch of intelligent creatures in the primeval era, namely the legendary Pangu Clan and the Nuwa Clan, had miraculously survived. Although they were individually stronger than human beings, they had lost the foundation of their civilization and could not compete with human beings. Therefore, they could only choose to cooperate with human beings in exchange for the trust of human beings at the cost of the primeval technology.

After assimilating the technology of the Pangu Civilization, human beings were now able to build their own production line of the ‘Giant Gods’. They no longer had to excavate the relics of the primeval era and make do with scrap iron. Very soon, the army of the Giant Gods, which had suffered a great loss in the ‘Battle of Fallen Stars’, would be ten times stronger than before.

It was said that, with the wisdom of the top biochemical experts of the federation, the imperium, and the Sanctuary Alliance, and the guidance of the prehistoric civilization and the pioneers, the civilization of mankind had made great progress in the field of gene reproduction. One day, it was even possible that a living ‘Pioneer’ could be duplicated with the scraps of the dead bodies left by the pioneers and open a brand-new door of ‘infinite possibilities’ from different directions of evolution.

It was said that the space jump technology employed by the civilization of mankind had an endless direction of improvement, too. Maybe in the near future, the energy consumption and damage suffered by the space jumps would be minimized, making it possible to perform multiple short-distance space jumps within a short period of time. At that time, a starship would be able to perform multiple space jumps in the battlefield millions of kilometers around within several seconds, like an unpredictable, ever-changing ghost. Such a ‘Phantom Fleet’ would be the invincible ‘Sword of Human Beings’.

It was said that many rumors were so exaggerated that even the most imaginative people found it hard to believe. Which of the rumors would become reality in the meeting of the future?
