As for strategic command, John didn't need to worry too much. Mr. Cam used a magical magic to connect the spirits of all the senior commanders of the army.

As long as they listen carefully, the orders from Queen will appear in their minds. All commanders can quickly respond to orders and lead their troops in marching operations.

Advanced organizational systems and advanced war concepts can control backward forms of war.

While Chloe on Tabi Star was reforming the army and heading towards the endless grassland of the Highlanders for the final decisive battle, Zhang Han from outside the universe was arriving near the first hyperspace debris.

It took Zhang Han two days to slowly reduce the power of the curvature engine, thereby leaving the curvature bubble, and planned to return to normal cosmic space.

The difficulty in this stage of operation lies in slow and precise operation. For example, when the curvature bubble is moving forward at full speed, it is like falling downward from the top of a waterfall, with a compressed space in front of it.

If the compression suddenly stops, the vertical space in front of the curvature bubble will suddenly become flat, and a person falling from the waterfall will fall to pieces on the flat space.

At this time, it is necessary to flatten the angle a little bit, so that the compressed vertical waterfall can be flattened little by little and buffered until it is completely flat. At this time, it is equivalent to exiting the curvature bubble and returning to the normal cosmic space.

Right in front of Zhang Han, the purple color in the curvature bubble slowly turned blue, then turned into a picture of high-speed advancement, and finally turned into the eternal normal universe.

There was no problem with this operation, and Zhang Han safely exited the curvature navigation. This was a long voyage, and the speed was also the limit. It was much more exciting than driving F1 and other high-speed traffic jams in Earth. Fortunately, he was now in the spirit of Overmind, with strong willpower and controllability.

Sometimes Zhang Han also thinks that if these scientific theories of Swarm can be given to Earth, the Nobel Prize will be easy to win. However, the biggest possibility is that he will be regarded as a madman, because the theory exceeds Earth too much.

Zhang Han has four pairs of eyes growing on the back of his head. He needs to carefully observe the surrounding environment. This is an empty place in the universe, without any matter, and no meteorites or dust can be seen.

But there is part of a hyperspace fragment buried in the space here, which requires careful observation to find.

Soon, an unusual space curvature was discovered by Zhang Han. Navigating at sublight speed, he quickly arrived at the curvature area. After Cerebrate's calculations, that was it.

The hyperspace engine began to charge, and the energy with the same frequency as the curvature of space began to vibrate. Soon, a large hole opened in the empty universe, and the colorful hyperspace entrance appeared in front of Zhang Han.

After confirming that this hyperspace fragment was the previously detected hyperspace leading to the target star field, Zhang Han flew in. As long as he sailed here for two days, he could cross a distance of one light-year in the normal universe.

Flying in hyperspace, Zhang Han has a lot of thoughts. This is a magical and strange place. The magic is that it completely ignores the physical laws of the ordinary universe. Some phenomena here can only be explained by magic in the ordinary universe.

It is not difficult for ordinary interstellar civilizations to discover hyperspace. All they need to do is to think clearly about one point in theory, that is, don't be obsessed with unifying the four fundamental forces.

Gravity does not exist, and there are no gravitons to conduct it. It is the simplest curvature of space. The microscopic strong force, weak force, and electromagnetic force can be unified, but gravity cannot.

Then scientists need to establish the most basic space model, which is a space model without any interference, a space model without any bending that excludes any material influence.

When the space model is established, as long as by chance and with enough luck, interstellar civilization will discover the existence of hyperspace. Because in the basic space model, the curved space where hyperspace exists is too obvious.

When civilization discovers that this bending is not caused by mass and gravity, they will be able to discover the truth about hyperspace. This will enable interstellar travel and interstellar colonization through hyperspace.

The conditions for entering hyperspace are very low, so low that even if it is not a first-level civilization, it can be discovered. There was even a civilization that had just launched manned spaceflight and accidentally sent astronauts into hyperspace.

But is hyperspace, which seems simple, really simple?

No, Swarm's technology has basically reached the pinnacle of material life. Most of the secrets in the universe have been understood. The only cosmic phenomena that have not yet been understood include black hole singularities and hyperspace.

Yes, the seemingly simple hyperspace is as difficult to study as a black hole.

Existing research shows that hyperspace will be attracted by mass objects in the regular universe, so basically every galaxy has many. However, there are few discoveries outside the galaxy. It is precisely because of this feature that the closer to the center of the galaxy, the more hyperspace channels there are and the more developed they are.

Swarm's research on hyperspace is just conjecture. He thinks that hyperspace may be fragments of other space dimensions. As for the relationship between this dimension and the ordinary universe, no more precise theory has been established yet.

The two-day journey passed by in an instant, and Zhang Han arrived at the mining galaxy four light-years away.

This galaxy is richer than Tabi Star, with middle-aged yellow stars and five orbiting planets. None of them are in the habitable zone, but it doesn't matter, Swarm is already very adaptable, and there are no problems with volcanic planets or glacial planets.

The most important thing is that this information also contains a huge gas planet that can provide Swarm with abundant fusion raw materials.

Zhang Han stretched out his hand to hold a red dead planet, the curvature engine was running at low power, and after ten minutes, he arrived above the planet.

After scanning, we found that this planet has no atmosphere, water is deep underground, and the temperature difference is large, making it unsuitable for life. For Hatchery, its development speed will not be very fast, but this is already the most suitable one among the three candidate planets.

After landing, Zhang Han took out Stars from his stomach and placed it on the ground.

Stars, whose whole body is wrapped in chitin armor, will naturally not be affected by the harsh environment. In fact, even without armor, with her current physical fitness, it will not be very difficult to survive here.

Zhang Han first used cell nanorobots to hatch a Hatchery and dozens of Drone. Then his right hand suddenly opened and turned into a biological electromagnetic gun still dripping with mucus.

A shot was fired at the ground in the distance, creating a dark, smoking passage, and soon a source of water emerged from it.

The steaming water formed a river and flowed around Hatchery.
