In Yun Tan's view, Fa Xiu was simply courting death.
This thought persisted until a resource point was breached.
After interrogating some Humans, Destiny Ring Star learned a piece of information.
It wasn't the Federation that destroyed their warships, but another group of people.
This was originally military classified information.
However, because some people believed in a deity, this information was leaked.
"Silk..."
Yun Tan had studied Human Civilization.
In Human Civilization, there were only two things related to silk:
"Interstellar Silk Road"
"Silk Civilization"
The former connected the then Olive Branch Civilization, now a branch of Humanity, the Eternal Reincarnation Star Kingdom.
The latter...
"This is the Orion Nebula."
"Speaking of silk, it must be the Silk Civilization, but wasn't the Silk Civilization destroyed by Human Civilization?"
Some of the information Yun Tan obtained came from spies within Human Civilization.
But Human Civilization was vast enough that even the most learned person wouldn't claim to know all information.
Especially, people always focused on the information they wanted to know.
And the Silk Civilization, which was not only far from the core of Human Civilization but also information from the early days of Human Civilization, tens of thousands of years ago, wouldn't attract much attention.
Yun Tan was very puzzled.
However, it was now certain that the Orion Nebula seemed to hide a big secret.
When it meticulously searched for information, it encountered some resistance and couldn't find any more information about the Silk Civilization.
It placed its hopes on the upcoming war.
This also made Fa Xiu notice that Yun Tan was acting strangely.
Yun Tan, who usually opposed him at every turn, had recently become quiet.
Something abnormal must signify something evil.
Upon investigation, Fa Xiu discovered that Yun Tan had been searching for information about a Silk Civilization that once existed here.
He used the areas he controlled more extensively to quickly gather information about the Silk Civilization, and immediately sensed something was wrong.
"The information about the Silk Civilization has been deliberately hidden."
"It's not even a simple hiding."
"Many of the Humans here know about the Silk Civilization, but when asked for specific information, they know nothing. Their memories have been erased."
Fa Xiu was greatly surprised.
What could make Human Civilization willing to erase collective memories to conceal it?
Naturally, it must be something very important.
Moreover, what interested Fa Xiu the most was that the time these memories disappeared was very recent.
This indicated that this memory erasure might be related to them.
"Humans are hiding all of this from us."
"The Silk Civilization must involve a big secret."
"Perhaps, it's even one of Humanity's trump cards."
Although Fa Xiu looked down on Yun Tan, it didn't mean that Fa Xiu disagreed with Yun Tan's ideas.
Indeed, vigilance should be maintained towards Human Civilization.
This Civilization was not weak.
If he could truly destroy this trump card here.
Then, he would definitely gain more support and influence both within and outside the Civilization.
Fa Xiu seemed to see the future beckoning to him.
In his opinion, since he could perceive this point in this operation, the danger had already been minimized.
Afterward, by delving deeper into the Silk Civilization, he should be able to find out what Humanity's trump card truly was.
"What should truly be alarming now is Yun Tan; that guy found the clue before me. He must know more information."
"If that guy gets ahead of me, I'll definitely be made a fool of."
Fa Xiu was furious with Yun Tan.
Currently, Yun Tan could actually be considered his subordinate, and for his subordinate to find an important clue before him, the "superior," what did that prove? That he was lax in his management and lacked leadership ability.
For Fa Xiu, who aimed to become the greatest clan leader, this was arguably the most dreadful blemish.
"I must find it before that guy."
