Capítulo 298: Chapter 298: The Third Civil War of the Olive Branch Civilization
In the 6,183rd year since the massacre plan began, the first round of the massacre plan was announced.
The total number of casualties reached 302,547,272,353 lives.
The Civilization Federation completely collapsed due to this massacre, regressing humanity back to the state of the year 10,000 AD.
Logically, this should have marked the end of one cycle; however, Gais, in order to maintain its position, began fabricating stories about the existence of 100 trillion humans in more distant places.
The lives within the Olive Branch civilization became increasingly dispersed, leading to a significant reduction in the number of lives remaining in the core star cities of Olive Branch civilization, making rebellion impossible. Gais's position remained stable.
It thought this lie could continue indefinitely since it could fabricate more "enemies."
However, after 4,100 years, it was struck awake by a sudden realization.
The warships that were supposed to carry out the human extermination mission lost contact; none of its communications received any responses—this included nearly 80% of Olive Branch civilization's fleet.
It considered many possibilities.
Perhaps they encountered a higher civilization or something similar.
Afterward, it continued for 1,000 years without receiving any communications from various fleets until one thousand and one years later when contact was finally established.
This timing felt fortuitous to Gais; receiving communication seemed far better than not receiving any at all.
All fleets sent messages stating they were on their way back and that the human extermination had concluded.
This made Gais even more anxious.
Could its deception have failed? This decade-long purge had allowed individuals within Olive Branch civilization to gradually develop their own thoughts while also giving rise to other entities.
Or perhaps these responses were all lies—the fleets of Olive Branch civilization had already been annihilated?
It hurriedly sent messages instructing all fleets not to return.
However, it did not realize that this message would become a reality.
In the following 17,000 years, Gais began producing new lives in large quantities within the star cities and instructed these new lives not to engage with any external consciousness. Through this method, it regained control over Olive Branch civilization.
It returned to its previous state.
Gais felt it should have done this long ago—erasing all original individuals and then creating new ones.
Of course, this was merely hindsight; under previous circumstances, it could not have killed all original individuals since survivors from the Federation still existed. Although level 2.3 civilizations were certainly out of reach, level 2.2 civilizations could still be barely attainable.
Erasing all original individuals during this transitional period could plunge an entire civilization into danger.
As for a slight change in bloodlines—that was even more impossible. What about emotional contamination? Time was also insufficient; creating billions of individuals would take an exceedingly long time.
Even if one piece of paper produced one hundred million sheets every second—it would still take over three years!
Unless it transformed entire star cities into production lines, producing these individuals would still require millennia—by that time emotions would have already erupted.
In truth, many paths were unfeasible; that was why Gais had not chosen the most extreme course initially.
However, the most crucial reason lay in its understanding: Gais's goal was not to annihilate civilization but rather to develop it. Slaughtering billions within civilization was something it could conceive but never execute.
This did not make it a saint; rather it understood that once it initiated killing once—there would be a second time and then an infinite cycle where its original intentions would change into nothing but endless slaughter...
Endless killing would spiral beyond its control—leading to the worst possible scenario.
The Olive Branch civilization understood the importance of emotions; that was why they retained them. This retention targeted all individuals within civilization—including Gais itself.
As a leader, it had to maintain an absolutely correct consciousness; any deviation could lead to the annihilation of the entire civilization.
In this regard, it had to be more extreme than any manager ever could be.
This constituted its own bondage—or rather what every civilization should possess—as civilizations require order and not chaos. Within order lies various constraints that are essential for stability.
Thus leading to the current situation was inevitable as well.
However, after Gais regained control over star cities, when it attempted to call back those fleets again—the messages sank into silence once more. Soon after, it faced an attack.
This attack felt familiar; it originated from its own weapons.
Gais did not know what had transpired since it lacked any sources of information; at that moment it could only assume that those attacking were enemies and retaliated accordingly.
Thus erupted the third civil war of Olive Branch civilization.
...
In fact, all this stemmed from Gais's own wild imaginings.
Ella took advantage of this point.
It mastered the language of Olive Branch civilization and deciphered details regarding their human massacre plan's second phase.
Afterward, it devised a plan to intercept communications between the Civilization Federation and Olive Branch civilization. Subsequently through cloning methods, Ella produced a large number of Federation life forms—these clones shared similar structural properties while numbering only around 100 billion—far easier to produce than those from Olive Branch civilization.
These clones were crude creations lacking much intelligence; their sole purpose was one thing:
To die!
Thus the fleets of Olive Branch civilization indeed completed their extermination mission successfully against humans.
Ella capitalized on information asymmetry and Gais's distrust toward these fleets.
In Gais's mind, these fleets were bound to succeed; otherwise why would it dispatch them in the first place?
Seeds of doubt had long existed; Ella merely watered them further.
Afterward Gais's suspicion prevented those individuals from returning to star cities—a full 17,000 years passed during which time was ample enough for a lower-tier civilization to develop into a level 2 civilization. It wasn't surprising for individuals from Olive Branch civilization exploring outside alone to form a new "extended civilization."
What appeared simple in retrospect involved significant effort on Ella's part.
Simply obstructing Gais's information transmission proved challenging because Olive Branch civilization controlled advanced communication technology through the Federation. To disrupt communications meant intercepting quantum signals from other dimensions.
Ella developed dimensional signal interference devices that launched numerous projectiles into other dimensional spaces disrupting information flows and breaking encryption thereby blocking signal transmissions.
In fact, this wasn't a new concept; once equipped with quantum communication devices—the Federation had been researching ways to sabotage quantum communications for stability assurance purposes.
Gais remained oblivious throughout; it never considered that remnants from the Civilization Federation still participated in these matters—Ella remained invisible regarding them let alone for Olive Branch civilization itself.
Only Yan Xia knew about Ella's existence amidst everything—he understood Ella's position within the Federation.
This represented a hidden trump card playing a crucial role in events unfolding now.
For this plan, Ella did not personally engage or participate; rather one key aspect was avoiding any third parties—otherwise such entities would undoubtedly become targets for blame.
Only between two parties would misunderstandings be directed solely at each other as mutual wrongdoings were perceived.
Misunderstandings among close friends typically do not escalate while among parties already filled with suspicion—even poorly constructed misunderstandings can serve as ignition points for conflict.
Gais believed other individuals from Olive Branch civilization had rebelled while those other individuals thought something was wrong with Gais itself.
This is precisely how things stood now.
Clearly, Ella's plan succeeded!
It instigated what would become known as the third civil war in Olive Branch civilization's history—and this time around there were no surprises or uncertainties regarding its outcome.
