4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

The 'Desolate Vortex' group of creatures was given this name.

Their civilization was built around a huge hole that was more than six thousand kilometers in diameter, but just a few hundred meters thick.

From the 'front' of the cave, it was a large, dark hole with a rock-like ring around the edge of the hole.

As for what it looks like from the back, that's not clear.

Now the Eater Star must face the ...... challenge of this civilization.

It did not run away, in fact the group of intruders it encountered earlier seemed to have stumbled upon the floating Eater Star while wandering around exploring and then ascended to the surface of the Eater Star.

Now that the Eater Star knew where this civilization was located, it seemed determined to destroy them.

This was obviously more difficult.

Because the civilization 'Desolate Vortex' had tens of thousands of cities floating around the cave entrance, each city was several kilometers to tens of kilometers in size, they were like fortresses with tight protection, each city was covered by a semi-circular shell, only some very small entrances and exits on this giant shell for the craft to enter and exit.

At the same time, there are many things like turrets on and around this huge protective shell, in fact, from the outside they do not look like cities, but rather a war weapon.

The group of creatures had obviously grown very large, so instead of charging straight through, the Devouring Star stopped just over 100,000 kilometers away from the Desolate Vortex civilization.

It was observing these civilizations from a distance.

The matter-eating star itself could observe something in the distance through the still void, which the civilized creatures could not see at that time, so it did not know what was going on.

The particle creature that had been observing them, however, was able to see both the Devouring Star and the Desolate Vortex civilization.

The Desolation Vortex actually spotted the Devouring Star as well, and they sent some troops to fly towards the Devouring Star.

And before this troop flew there, the Star of Eating Things observed the source of the ...... development of the Desolation Vortex.

Also just this huge hole, 6,000 kilometers in diameter, there was an abnormal change inside the hole, and its interior just spun up like a vortex.

Look as if there was a huge storm inside, while countless pieces of debris flew out from this storm.

The cities located outside the hole also activated their fire systems, and they smashed many of the pieces that hit the city directly, while those that would not hit the city were allowed to fly through.

The vortex lasted for a thousand seconds before stopping, a process that saw countless pieces of debris ranging in size from tens to hundreds of meters shoot out, and after waiting for complete calm, the cities of the vortex sent out a large number of troops.

Flying machines, large and small, flew out of the city toward the debris floating among the city and dragged some of it back.

Because they did so, the granular creatures called them the Desolation Vortex, a civilization that relied heavily on the resources that poured from the cave mouths that allowed them to develop and become so large.

But it is not known what the development process was like, because the shards themselves are dangerous and without strong defensive firepower they could easily destroy the cities.

So the barren vortex is probably not a species that developed here, but floated from afar, and they themselves have the strength to reduce the damage the debris can do to them.

Not long after the debris poured out, a contingent of Desolate Vortices also boarded the Devourer Star.

This time, the troops were smaller, they arrived on ten 100-meter-long craft, and there were only a hundred Desolate Vortices that landed to explore.

They obviously didn't see the Devouring Star as any kind of threat, perhaps they had never encountered such a creature before?

This time, the Star Eater did not directly attack the exploration team, its carapace troops are hiding underground without action, and civilized creatures want to check the surface were dragged back by the carapace.

This group of desolate vortexes explored for a while and then left, and then they sent a large number of flying machines.

These craft were all over a hundred meters in size, but there were many hundreds of them.

This group of vehicles was used to tow the Star of Eaters back.

They dug out a large number of deep pits on the Devouring Star and used these pits as anchor points to fix a chain link connected to the craft, which then started to drag the Devouring Star towards their city together.

At this time, the Star of Eaters was also in a hurry to prepare, it did not prepare an army or anything, but was dismantling its original army.

It disassembled each carapace into pieces that ...... could not see what they were originally.

At the same time, it also dismantled the organs ...... it used to grow for moving itself.

And it also constructed a lot of small animals.

These critters are all the species it used to encounter before it attacked some places, and it created a lot of this harmless creatures ...... and made them live underground.

Or seem to live underground.

It did this for the obvious reason that it did not want to be treated as a threatening creature.

Soon, the Devouring Star was towed back to a city next to a city because it was too big for itself and no city could accommodate it.

Once dragged into position, the city flew out with many small craft over ten meters in size.

They brought a large number of fellows to the surface of the Devourer Star.

After that, a large number of Desolate Vortexes set up many bases, large and small, on the Planet Eater, and they kept collecting samples from all over the Planet Eater for research.

Of course they also discovered the entrance to the underground and found many small creatures down there.

At the same time, they also found ...... civilized creatures.

The Star of Eating Things did not do anything to the civilized creatures when it transformed itself, so it had to hide everywhere underground after the arrival of the Desolation Vortex, but it was eventually found and brought into their city by the Desolation Vortex.

The Eater Star itself, as it thought, was not treated as a threat by the Desolation Vortex. The Eater Star's body was a mass of incremental creatures located underground on the surface, somewhat like a fungus, and the Desolation Vortex did treat it as a harmless creature similar to a fungus.

They do not know that it is the culprit of the previous exploration team's destruction, perhaps they did not receive the exploration team's contact.

In any case, during the long research, the Eater Star was cut off by them and brought back to the city in many parts for preservation and research.

The Eater Star thus split, it was finally disassembled into a large number of pieces of various sizes, and the land mass where the Eater Star itself grew was completely disintegrated by the Desolate Vortex, and the minerals on it were recycled as resources.

Everything seems to be over, but in reality ...... is not yet.

The Star of Eating Things is still in a living state, and it uses this method ...... to begin to erode this civilization.
