The analysis of the Far-Seers warships has been completed. After repairs, their offensive and defensive capabilities have been roughly determined. The test results show that both energy spheres and high-yield antimatter bombs can inflict devastating damage on the target ships.

Next, the academicians began testing the attack capabilities of the Far Watcher Civilization civilization's warships against the Grim Slayer, which also provided an opportunity to examine the difference in defensive capabilities between the First Reversed State Armor and Second Reversed State Armor.

Since the Second Reversed State Armor has increased its energy by one-third, its defensive capabilities should theoretically be stronger. The Grim Slayer was ready, and the charged Far Watcher Civilization warships immediately launched a full-scale attack on the Grim Slayer.

The Far Watcher Civilization civilization's warships possessed two spatial attack methods, the effect of which was similar to splitting Rotating Space Shockwave. After testing, the attack effect was quite good. The First Reversed State Armor could only barely defend against it, while the Second Reversed State Armor was indeed more defensive, remaining completely unaffected by the Far Watcher Civilization's spatial attacks. However, the Far Watcher Civilization civilization's warships' spatial attack power was completely disproportionate to their energy consumption, and this method of simply accumulating energy to increase attack power was quickly abandoned by the academicians.

The outcome of the attack and defense did not exceed the academicians' expectations. If the numbers were equal, the Grim Slayer fleet could have completely crushed this fleet that claimed to be Small Star Sector Intermediate Civilization. If they did not have such a large number of ships, they might not even be considered Small Star Sector Intermediate Civilization.

The warships of the Far Watcher Civilization also only traveled at 4000 times the speed of light, and their voyages consumed a disproportionately greater amount of energy than those of the Grim Slayer.

The current Grim Slayer can only sustain combat for five years. If the Far Watcher Civilization ' warships were used instead, this timeframe would be significantly reduced. If the Far Watcher Civilization' warships weren't so massive, they probably wouldn't last even a few years. However, two million years have passed, Far Watcher Civilization ' technology would have advanced accordingly.

As for the other technologies of the Far Watcher Civilization's warships, they are almost all within the scope of Human Civilization's understanding. If Human Civilization were to abandon the physical body and combine the brain with the warship, it could also create such a large fleet, and it would be even more advanced. However, one thing is that the Far Watcher Civilization's warships can still maintain a low-speed warp-angle navigation state even in the event of spatial chaos, which is much more advanced than the Grim Slayer.

In chaotic spatial conditions, the warp drive does work, but it makes it impossible for the warship to maintain its direction. It may spin in place or crash into a nearby warship, just like a drunkard stumbling and bumping around.

" Academician Li, have you made any progress?" Hu Yu couldn't help but ask Academician Li Youwei directly.

"There are some things we can't do yet, like defeating the Far Watcher Civilization. But there might still be a glimmer of hope in rescuing the Tree People. However, there are still many problems to overcome, and we need to redesign a new type of warship."

"I can't help with the technological problems, but designing and producing warships in advance is no problem. Are the Grim Slayer useless now?"

"General, when we fought against the Xuan Star Civilization Xuan Star Civilization, many of our Grim Slayer were destroyed by collisions with them. The kinetic energy from the collision of two massive warships is immense, and it's concentrated at a single point. Even the Second Reversed State Armor couldn't withstand it. So, we can use this kinetic energy to create a Kinetic Impact Ship specifically designed to ram into the enemy."

Kinetic Impact Ship?

"Excellent. We have Reversed State Armor, stronger than any other alloy armor. The Grim Slayer is too large; a collision would be devastating. I plan to design the Kinetic Impact Ship as a spike-like structure. It doesn't need to be too big, but it must use enough Second Reversed State Armor. Using the Kinetic Impact Ship to directly ram into the enemy warship and release energy spheres from inside would be even more effective."

"I never imagined that even now that we've entered Small Star Sector Civilization, we still rely on the most basic kinetic energy to attack."

"General, doesn't it seem a bit ironic? But when technology hasn't advanced, kinetic energy impact is indeed the most effective method."

"This isn't sarcasm, it's an exclamation: Academician Li, what other difficult problems still need to be solved?"

"Yes, mainly the implementation of the Third Reversed State."

"Is Academician Li preparing to develop even stronger armor?"

"No, the strength of the Third Reversed State is even weaker than that of the First Reversed State."

"Even worse?"

"General, the First Reversed State requires an energy sphere with a diameter of ten meters to transform into a small cube of one cubic centimeter, and an energy sphere with a diameter of ten meters requires one million tons of matter to transform. If the Reversed State didn't exhibit much mass, the warship's weight would be too great to sail. For the Third Reversed State, I plan to directly transform an energy sphere with a diameter of ten meters into Reversed State with a diameter of ten meters, without reducing the volume, and even increasing the volume."

" Academician Li, the more you explain, the less I understand."

"Here's the thing, I plan to build a super sphere for the Far Watcher Civilization. The entire sphere's walls will be made of Reversed State Armor, so thick that they can't break through it, or they'll have to pay a huge price to break through it. This way, we can trap them inside, and then send Kinetic Impact Ship to rampage through it."

" Academician Li, the space cut by the Treant Civilization exceeds 200 astronomical units. The space cut by the Far Watcher Civilization must be even larger. How many energy spheres would it take to cover the entire space? Moreover, the space after the cut is clearly folded. How can we enter the folded space to place the energy spheres? And after placing them, how can we ensure that the energy spheres are not destroyed before they are converted? All of this is more difficult than climbing to the heavens."

"General, we don't need to go in at all. We just need to force them out. Our treant friends can do all of this for us. We just need to provide the treants with enough energy, and they can use that energy to create a spherical space wall. All we need to do is convert that energy into Reversed State."

"This is a massive plan. I'll talk to the Tree Race Chief and get their cooperation."

"Sigh, no need, General. I said I could give it a try, but now look what's happened. We just finished testing the Far Watcher Civilization ' warships, and the Tree Race Chief has been calling me eight hundred times a day. I had no choice but to tell him about this part of the plan, and that's how I got a few days of peace and quiet."

"He's desperate to save his people; he's finally found a glimmer of hope, so it's no wonder he's so anxious. Can the Tree Race Chief and the others do it?"

"It's possible, but they only have less than 100 million Elder Trees capable of action right now. According to their observations, the diameter of the space cut by the Far Watcher Civilization is about 1,000 astronomical units. It would be difficult for them to achieve the energy layer density we need in such a large area. The Tree Race Chief has already gone back to discuss with the clan elders and is preparing to tell us the method of cutting space in advance so that we can cooperate with them later."

"General, Academician, I have already discussed it with the elders, and I will tell you the method for cutting space now." As Hu Yu and the other were talking, the Tree Race Chief arrived. In order to adapt to human architecture, the Tree Race Chief once again used the characteristics of the Tree Race to create a branch that was more than a meter tall.
