The Standoff in the Stars

Their movement patterns were basically the same, and the Black Warship Squadron definitely had the advantage in numbers because they were facing only one warship, a rectangular warship with the Golden Ratio.

If humans saw this warship, they would immediately recognize that it was almost identical to the Awakeners they had encountered before. Well, it seemed to be a bit larger than the one humans had encountered before, but it was still in that same size range.

If we compare this Rectangular Warship with those hundred or so Black Warship, it is larger than the Black Warship, and the length difference is about three or four hundred kilometers. Of course, at this level, the length of the warship is not a big deal.

Judging from their reactions as they constantly change positions in the starry sky, it seems that they are almost identical in their ability to maneuver and dodge.

Strangely, the two kept disappearing and appearing in a cycle, but there was no trace of an attack in the starry sky. The two seemed to be tacitly flashing, without launching a military attack on each other.

As is well known, Warp Speed Travel is achieved by distorting spacetime. The general principle is to distort the spacetime in front of the warship while stretching and flattening the spacetime behind the warship. During Warp, in order to protect the spacetime in which the warship is located and prevent the spacetime at the warship's location from being distorted like the external spacetime, the warship must wrap itself in a spacetime field, which is called Warp Bubble, when entering or exiting Warp or Warp Speed Travel.

The distortion of spacetime will inevitably cause spacetime ripples, just like an object disappearing from the surface of water into the depths. No matter how smoothly it flows, it needs to break the calm surface, causing ripples to appear on the originally calm surface. In Warp Speed Travel, this is how spacetime ripples are generated.

Of course, these spacetime ripples are very weak and have virtually no effect on nearby objects. They don't even travel very far in the universe before automatically settling down in the vast galaxy.

At first, the two seemed to be competing in terms of performance, but after a while, they seemed to be using this method to transmit some information to each other.

The ability to glean information from such chaotic spacetime ripples indicates that both sides possess extremely strong detection capabilities.

"A civilization from Extragalactic Civilization?"

"Oh? The Silver Heart Alliance. Oh no, I should say the infamous Harvesters."

"Snort!"

"Oh!"

The messages were short and used the publicly available broadcast format of the Milky Way Galaxy, so both sides could understand each other's meaning, but neither had any interest in continuing with lengthy discussions.

After the brief exchange, the two continued to dodge and weave in the starry sky, just as before. They seemed to be fixed on the same screen, disappearing and reappearing together. In just a few breaths, they moved from this star field to another star field more than ten light-years away.

After flashing several times, the Rectangular Warship finally hovered over the chromosphere of a star.

The Rectangular Warship, at most three thousand kilometers in size, would appear to be nothing more than a dim spot on the surface of a star with a diameter of over two million kilometers.

However, if you zoom in, you can clearly see that the endless rolling flames of the stars are sweeping towards the Rectangular Warship, and some of the surging solar prominences are even directly hitting the Rectangular Warship.

Despite the raging flames of the star, the Rectangular Warship remained completely still, as if it were half-embedded in space, firmly fixed there, unmoved by the raging flames.

It looked like a gold brick forged in a raging fire! At this moment, the Rectangular Warship resembled an ancient god standing on the surface of the sun, with the sun as its backdrop and the endless flames of the stars as its imposing presence.

Incredibly, this Rectangular Warship actually arrived directly on the surface of the star at Warp. The star's Gravity is so strong that it can warp spacetime, causing planets within its Gravity Field to revolve around it. Such Gravity makes Warp Speed Travel extremely difficult and prone to problems, yet this Rectangular Warship appeared precisely on the star's surface.

Coincidentally, the Rectangular Warship wasn't the only one with this ability; the hundred or so Black Warship were the same. They also appeared on the chromosphere of this star, remaining unmoved despite the raging Stellar Wind, but their positions differed from the Rectangular Warship. The hundred or so Black Warship appeared precisely on the far side of the star.

They are separated from the Rectangular Warship by a single star.

At this moment, the brightest star in the sky seemed to become a background, while the Rectangular Warship and the more than one hundred Black Warship stood back to back, in front of and behind the star, like two peerless masters.

There is no mystical aura in the universe, but at this moment, the two seem to exude a chilling aura.

The star's Gravity Field had smoothed out the Warp marks left by the arrival of the two, and at this moment the starry sky seemed to quiet down, with only the scorching fusion flames on the star's surface, which reached a temperature of 20,000 degrees Celsius, rolling and baking, and the scorching Stellar Wind surging up and down, but nothing could shake the two, as if the Stellar Wind at a temperature of more than 20,000 degrees Celsius was just a gentle breeze.

This Star System contains six planets, five of which are Rocky Planet and barren, while the outermost one is Gaseous Planet. Seven or eight moons of varying sizes orbit the central Main Sequence Star, following the laws of the universe and their billions of years-long trajectories.

The starry sky seemed to quiet down at this moment, a very natural quiet, a quiet without a trace of civilization.

Perhaps only a Level Six Civilization could Observer what the two have gone through from their initial encounter to their current back-to-back position against the star. Of course, the two also know this from each other.

However, at this moment, neither the Rectangular Warship nor the hundred or so warships whose pace and coordination were outrageous, moved. They lay quietly on the Stellar Chromosphere, as if waiting for some opportunity.

Almost as they waited quietly for something, a warship with a beautiful streamlined shape and sparkling starlight suddenly appeared in the sky about ten light-years away from the star.

After the warship appeared, it hovered in the starry sky, its barred bow, resembling a soap bar, precisely pointing at a star more than ten light-years away.

At the same time, a strange message appeared inside the warship, which was shimmering with starlight, and it was unclear whether it was a communication or a soliloquy.

"One warship has tied down a Harvesters of 170 Reaper warships. What kind of Characteristic Technology has this civilization from Extragalactic Civilization mastered? This warship doesn't seem like their flagship either. Heh, this Harvesters getting more and more interesting."
