The Milky Way Million Civilizations Alliance Network.
The civilization type groupings have been lively for the past few months due to the addition of a new type of civilization.
That is the Water Blue Star Crystal Energy Civilization.
Crystal Civilization for short.
In the beginning, as the people of the Crystal Civilization did not join this alliance network, everyone could only analyze and guess what kind of civilization it was based on their limited knowledge.
There were all sorts of guesses and ideas.
Some even speculated about cultivation civilizations and eating crystals.
And that Crystal Civilization people might themselves be silicon-based life forms capable of using crystals.
It wasn't until recently, when the people of the Crystal Civilization officially joined the alliance network, registered accounts, and participated in exchanges, that the secret of the Crystal Civilization was revealed.
Currently, the hottest topic in the grouping is a post published by a Crystal Civilization user about the origin and explanation of their civilization's development into a Crystal Civilization:
"The Third Energy Revolution of the Core"
To be honest, it wasn't until I joined the Milky Way Million Civilizations Alliance Network that I realized that the crystal energy system developed by our civilization was quite special, unlike any other existing civilization in the entire Milky Way.
Seeing everyone's curiosity, I've specifically come to tell you why our civilization became this way.
In fact, before the Third Energy Revolution, our civilization was quite similar to most civilizations in the Milky Way today, using more common electrical and nuclear energy, with antimatter being the projected future energy source.
However, during the Third Energy Revolution.
We did not follow the predicted path.
The root cause lies with Ms. Liu Xiaohua, whom we recognize as the mother of the Poké Ball, the mother of the crystal energy chip.
The mother of mental power.
The pioneer and founder of the Third Energy Revolution.
There are many other titles, but you probably wouldn't understand them, as civilizations do have differences.
All you need to know is that it was Ms. Liu Xiaohua who discovered that natural crystals contained energy and guided that energy out through special methods for normal use.
Including our civilization's current specialty, various Poké Balls were also created and developed by Ms. Liu Xiaohua.
As this crystal energy spread through Poké Balls and was widely used, the Third Energy Revolution of our civilization officially began.
Crystal energy chips gradually expanded beyond Poké Balls and began to be used throughout the country, including, but not limited to, everyday electrical networks.
However, the energy revolution was not smooth sailing.
It was quite difficult at first.
Even the government was not very supportive.
It was entirely supported by Ms. Liu Xiaohua alone.
Because crystal energy is very special, it must be guided by mental power to be activated and used normally.
But at that time, our civilization's development level was very low, and people had no idea about the existence of mental power, let alone find a way to use mental power to activate energy crystals.
Moreover, at that time, there were no methods to cultivate and enhance mental power. Only Ms. Liu Xiaohua herself was special, her mental power was possibly naturally strong, allowing her to learn to use mental power without extra training.
And to activate those energy crystals.
Therefore, even though Ms. Liu Xiaohua already knew that the energy in crystals could be used and could produce energy chips that could be used normally.
She was still unable to promote it universally or teach others, so all the chips could only be activated by her personally.
At that time, the government also discussed and communicated with Ms. Liu Xiaohua, and even tried it themselves before confirming the necessity of mental power for activating crystal energy chips.
Afterward, they collaborated with Ms. Liu Xiaohua.
Asking her to help activate various chips.
While continuing to research how ordinary people could activate mental power and thus activate crystal energy chips. It is said that the price the government paid at that time was to give her a panda.
You may not know what a panda is.
A panda was our country's national treasure at the time, a very cute furry animal that many people liked. Ms. Liu Xiaohua was probably a huge fan, which is why she specifically made this request.

It was roughly like the picture above.
Through continuous research and development, we successively discovered that crystals are also different from each other. The energy inside transparent crystals leans towards spatial attributes. Whether for making Poké Balls or maintaining the stability of space inside Poké Balls, transparent crystals are indispensable. Green crystals have healing abilities, and all healing-type Poké Balls cannot do without green crystals, at least a little must be added.
Crystals of various other colors have their own uses.
This is why we later introduced more and more Poké Balls with various special abilities.
But even then, we did not intend to use crystal energy as the main energy source thereafter.
This is because we generally believed that the storage capacity of natural crystals was limited, and after excavation and depletion, we might face the problem of energy exhaustion. Our envisioned ideal third-generation energy was to be clean and pollution-free, and also collectible on planets near our home planet, which would help avoid the problem of short-term energy depletion to some extent.
The specific change occurred thirty years after Ms. Liu Xiaohua created the Poké Ball. In that year, Ms. Liu Xiaohua introduced the Master Ball, which could no longer be considered a Poké Ball. To be precise, it was a small world.
The internal area reached one thousand square kilometers.
The Master Ball had three groundbreaking advancements: First, the energy chip used inside the Master Ball was replaced with an artificial crystal energy chip; second, ordinary people could now activate crystal energy chips with the help of instruments, although the number of chips they could activate daily was limited, and activating too many would cause fatigue and strain;
Third, crystal energy chips could be recharged.
Previously, after the energy inside the crystal energy chip was consumed, it was essentially waste and had no other use. However, after the realization of recharge technology, ordinary people could also activate the crystal energy chip in reverse with the help of instruments, allowing it to absorb external cosmic energy autonomously. It could recover in less than a year.
This is equivalent to charging for one year and using it for ten years.
As long as there is no artificial damage.
It can last for hundreds of thousands of years.
It was precisely because of these breakthroughs that our civilization began to believe that crystal energy had potential. Furthermore, there had been no progress with antimatter energy, and the development of nuclear energy was fraught with pollution and danger. Thus, our third-generation energy revolution ultimately and decisively turned towards crystal energy.
And increased research in the field of mental power.
Even as mental power research made breakthroughs, there were also some breakthroughs in artificial intelligence due to the advances in mental power research. This led to the successful creation of artificial intelligence that was not inferior to humans, capable of independent thought, and even capable of inducing a certain degree of mental power.
Oh, I forgot to mention.
The first robot with this special artificial intelligence was developed by a technology company invested in by Ms. Liu Xiaohua. Ms. Liu Xiaohua was also the first person to have such an artificial intelligence companion. In the following decades, Ms. Liu Xiaohua remained unmarried.
The one who accompanied her the most was that intelligent robot.
Besides that, there was also a cat, I think.
You can still see photos of Ms. Liu Xiaohua in her later years in the encyclopedia. With silver hair, she is holding a tabby cat in her arms, with a young intelligent robot standing beside her. The scene looks particularly warm and beautiful.
In summary, the reason why we have become the Crystal Energy Civilization we are today is primarily thanks to Ms. Liu Xiaohua. In fact, the core issues encountered during the Third Energy Revolution were basically resolved with Ms. Liu Xiaohua's participation or by her directly.
It can be said that without Ms. Liu Xiaohua.
We would have been unable to initiate the Crystal Civilization.
In fact, if even one of the three core issues mentioned earlier had not been resolved, it is likely that we would have found it difficult to completely abandon other energy sources and focus solely on crystal energy.
That's the general situation.
If you have any questions, you can post them below this thread, and I will try my best to answer them if I see them.
