Although the "Mechanical Kidney-Sucking Technique" was famous, its principle was actually very simple.
What it suppressed was not "signals," but space.
Because regardless of the type of signal, and regardless of whether it required a medium, it propagated through space.
This technique was equivalent to compressing and modifying "space," turning it into an oversized spatial hardware device.
Then, all virtual entities within this "hardware" could be subjected to dimensionality-reduction attacks by modifying the "spatial chip."
Even if you had a planetary computer equipped with a planetary-grade firewall, it could still move the entire system—firewall and all.
If it couldn't move it, it destroyed it!
Techniques on the virtual level were useless against it.
Because in essence, it was an even more advanced "unplugging-the-network-cable technique."
As an information-based species, Gao Gong hated it. But as a carbon-based species, Gao Gong felt that it was still worth studying.
Thus, throughout the entire voyage to the Alpha Star Region, Gao Gong repeatedly worked through the blueprints for this "professional knowledge chain."

The Alpha Civilization's Homeworld, Subspace Galaxy
This was an extremely special region. It felt like a ribbon made of starlight.
Yinghuo looked out into the distance. Every point of starlight bore a transparent human figure, and each figure radiated powerful mental fluctuations.
The Alphans were carbon-based species, but they possessed powerful innate consciousness.
