The Federation knew nothing about the Moi Alliance that was 800 million light-years away.
At the same time, in the Bosnian Supercluster.
Apart from the three attack groups that stayed behind and the three attack groups that acted as backup fleets, a total of 30 attack groups were organized into six large fleets, officially starting the five-year mission of becoming a 'superpower in the galaxy'.
This battle was of great significance to the Federation. Once they succeeded, humanity would officially enter the ranks of the top organizations in the universe.
Of course, this' top 'referred to the top of conventional civilizations and did not include super civilizations or unrestricted civilizations.
In order to achieve this goal, the Federation had not only invested in territory but also spent a lot of effort in technology.
With the help of the Bug Race's microcosm, the Flying Bird Research Institute led by Li Lizi was fully focused on the key to advancing to rank 9, which was the advanced application of time technology.
The Loulan Research Institute led by Bai Zixuan took over the previous project and continued to seek breakthroughs in the black cavity.
As for the Bardi Research Institute, they continued to climb the tree of dark energy technology, which was their specialty.
Once the Federation's three research institutes made breakthroughs, Lin Fan believed that even if they could not defeat super civilizations, the Federation would become invincible among conventional civilizations.
Of course, these things were not so easy to break through, especially the black cavity research. After the efforts of the Bardi Research Institute and the Loulan Research Institute, they were still unable to make any progress.
As for the research on dark energy, based on humanity's current level of rank 8 technology, the current results had almost reached the limit of humanity's technology tree. It would not be easy to make any more breakthroughs.
In comparison, Li Lizi's side had a greater chance, at least in the short term.
After all, humanity had basically grasped all the foundations of time technology. Therefore, on the path to becoming a rank 9 civilization, humanity's path was basically unobstructed.
What was left was only a matter of time.
-----
Year 178 of the Federation's calendar.
Wills Special Supercluster, Boötes Space, Flying Bird Research Institute.
Since 20 years ago, the Flying Bird Scientific Research Institute had been relocated here after receiving the time technology research mission.
In truth, at the very beginning, Li Lizi did not intend to move the entire research institute. Her initial plan was to close the passage in Bootes Constellation and open up a new path to the insectoid microcosm where the Flying Bird Institute used to be.
Unfortunately, this idea could not be realized, and the reason was the flow of time.
According to the latest research, the space-time coordinates of the small universe were not fixed. Instead, they were constantly changing.
That was where the problem arose. Even after sending the space beacon into the Bug Clan's microcosm, the time flow in the microcosm was too fast. As a result, when the main universe outside received the signal from the space beacon, its space-time coordinates had already changed. As a result, no matter how they tried, they would only end up in failure.
Li Lizi also understood that if they wanted to connect to a small universe with a time flow that differed greatly from the main universe, they had to at least master time technology. They even needed a level-10 civilization to have a preliminary understanding of the space-time technology that combined time and space.
Thus, Li Lizi had no choice but to make up her mind and move the entire Flying Bird Scientific Research Institute into the Bootes Constellation's microcosm.
However, compared to the Barlan Scientific Research Institute's small interstellar continent, the Flying Bird Scientific Research Institute, which was made up of countless modules, was undoubtedly much less stressful.
It only took a year for the massive Flying Bird Scientific Research Institute, which was made up of tens of thousands of modules, to be erected in the center of the Bootes Constellation's microcosm.
Of course, there were still many Zerg Kings and Zerg Kings in the Bug Clan's microcosm. After all, Zi Luo did not purge the entire microcosm.
However, this was not a big deal. Aliya and the other Zerg Kings had been wiped out, so why would the Federation be afraid of mere Zerg Kings and Zerg Kings?
Obviously, this was impossible.
Originally, the Federation had planned to send a fleet to the microcosm to clean up the remaining insectoids and act as guards for the Flying Bird Scientific Research Institute.
However, before this order was finally issued, Zi Luo's request made the Federation change their mind.
No matter what, this microcosm was the hometown of the Tarak civilization, and it was also where their mother planet was located.
Although the entire Tarak civilization had moved out of the microcosm, because of Zi Luo's existence, the Federation had given them preferential treatment that other civilizations could not enjoy. Just the territory alone was directly given to them by the Federation!
Although a galaxy group was very small to the Federation, and even to some of the stronger subsidiary civilizations of the Federation, it was not considered much.
However, one must not forget that the population of the Tarak civilization was very small after being suppressed by the insectoids for tens of thousands of years.
If this were other subsidiary civilizations, with such a small population, the Federation would have already given them a galaxy group. It was impossible for them to be like the Tarak civilization, directly giving them a large galaxy group.
In short, after a simple discussion, the Federation's upper echelons approved Zi Luo's request. They even provided the Tarak civilization with an entire fleet of equipment, which was made up of full-health versions of the Federation's main force battleships.
This was the first time among all the subsidiary civilizations of the Federation, and naturally, it was criticized by many subsidiary civilizations.
After all, what the subsidiary civilizations wanted had always been exchanged in the form of points, which was a kind of transaction model.
But now, the Federation was clearly giving the Tarak civilization all kinds of gifts. The difference in treatment was too big, wasn't it?
And regarding this point, the Federation only gave a simple response …
If your civilization can also produce an S-class dark energy manipulator who is loyal to the Federation, then the Federation can also give you the same preferential treatment.
Not to mention …
The Tarak civilization had produced two S-class dark energy manipulators!
It should be known that now in the entire Federation, including Lin Fan, there were only four S-class dark energy manipulators!
As soon as this response was given, all the voices of criticism immediately disappeared.
Everyone had been with the Federation for so long, so they more or less had some understanding of dark energy manipulators.
For ordinary civilizations, dark energy manipulators usually began to have the possibility of awakening after reaching Level 8, and even after reaching Level 10, they could be used, which was the level of an S-class dark energy manipulator.
Obviously, this was still too far away for the subsidiary civilizations that had just stepped into Level 7.
There would be an exception here, and that was if a certain civilization's race was born with the talent of dark energy that other civilizations could not reach.
Of course, the probability of this exception was so low that it made one's hair stand on end. Among the nearly one million subsidiary
civilizations under the Federation …
So far, there was only one exception, the Tarak civilization!
