#REDIRECT [[Flood outbreak#Transgalactic stage]]
The '''Intergalactic Stage''', also called '''Transgalactic Stage'''<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/species/flood '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Flood'']</ref>, is the fourth and final known stage of a [[Flood]] outbreak. This stage is reached once the Flood has consumed all sentient life in an entire [[galaxy]] and gained complete understanding of any technological and scientific knowledge that was present. By this time, it has reached a complete critical mass, which means it must depart to other galaxies for further reproduction, infestations and new technologies.<ref>'''[[Bestiarum]]'''</ref>
 
During the [[Human-Flood war]], the Flood was driven outside of the galaxy. Doing this may have caused them to achieve the Intergalactic Stage as they were able to return to the Milky Way 10,000 years later when they made first contact with the [[Forerunner]]s on [[Seaward]], sparking the [[Forerunner-Flood war]]. This is likely, as prior to the [[Halo Array]]'s firing, [[Forthencho]]'s [[essence]] was sent down to Earth by the [[Gravemind]] to tell the [[Librarian]] what he was told by it. Among this information was that the primary Gravemind had consumed at least ten thousand planets and many galaxies, reinforcing the possibility that the Flood has at one point in history reached this stage.<ref>'''Halo: Silentium''', ''page 321'' (''"This we were told by the Gravemind, the greatest of them, who has consumed ten thousand planets and brought entire galaxies to an end."'')</ref>
