"And most importantly, all our previous Reversed State were obtained using pure energy, and the resulting volumes were vastly different. This time, we need to directly convert energy into Reversed State of the same volume, which is extremely difficult. But don't worry, Chieftain, I will do my best."
The Basic Energy inside the energy sphere is like a pile of bricks, ready to be used to build a house. The external energy is like the raw material for the bricks. Even if the Tree Race cooperates to give these raw materials the basic shape of bricks, they still need to go through many processes before a house can be built.
" Academician Li, I know this is extremely difficult. Unfortunately, none of the things our Tree Race can offer are suitable for you. You can barely use the only thing we can do. As for navigation, although we are faster than you, you can't use that method either. If you want to understand the secrets of our internal space, I, this old stump, am willing to give it my all and let you study it."
"Chief, there's no need for that. Since we've made a promise, we will certainly do our best."
"I had lost faith in this universe, but meeting you all has made me realize that it's not entirely dark. Thank you."
"Chieftain, the rescue plan will take a long time to prepare, please be patient."
"Understood, understood. I won't bother Academician Li again unless it's absolutely necessary."
"Haha, Chieftain, you flatter me. You're welcome to visit anytime."
Ten years later, the new warship " Stinger " was designed. This warship was not equipped with any weapons or complex systems. It was only 500 meters long and looked like a spike from a distance. This was the Kinetic Impact Ship that Academician Li mentioned. The only special feature of this warship was that the entire hull was almost entirely made of the Second Reversed State.
This warship incorporates some of the technology of the Far Watcher Civilization, possessing the ability to perform warp drive in chaotic space, and its conventional power engine is also very powerful. Its only means of attack is ramming, using powerful kinetic energy to pierce through the enemy's armor layers.
Tests showed that this Kinetic Impact Ship, colliding with a stationary Grim Slayer at 0.4 times the speed of light, actually broke through the First Reversed State and Second Reversed State. Other alloy armor was even less affected, practically like tofu. The Kinetic Impact Ship reached the Grim Slayer's interior directly. If a small bomb were released inside at that moment, even the lowest yield would cause devastating damage to the Grim Slayer.
The Stinger's attack effect greatly exceeded everyone's expectations. This small warship was insignificant in front of the massive Far Watcher Civilization's warships, but as its name suggests, being stung by it could be fatal.
Moreover, the consumption of Stinger's Reversed State Armor is about the same as that of a Grim Slayer. While the production of the Second Reversed State Armor is fast, only a small piece is produced each time, already straining the supply to the Grim Slayer. Now, with the addition of the Stinger Kinetic Impact Ship, fortunately, Grim Slayer production has slowed down in recent years, leaving some surplus Reversed State. Producing tens of millions of Stinger should be sufficient. Of course, tens of millions are far from enough; the energy conversion rate needs to be accelerated in the coming period.
Two hundred years later, Academician Liu finally solved the problem of rotating Space Shockwave technology. When Hu Yu saw the bald, fat academician, he was almost stunned. Academician Liu explained that he had shaved his head to save time and make it easier to maintain.
The Grim Slayer can finally equip themselves with true spatial weapons. This Space Shockwave, combined with a rotational effect, not only has greater attack power but also possesses a faster-than-light speed. This is a speed that many Small Star Sector Junior Civilization do not possess in their spatial attack methods. With the faster-than-light speed effect, not only is the attack range larger and the hit rate higher, but the attack power is also stronger.
While large-scale use of space attacks would attract the attention of the Great Star Region Civilization, whether or not to use them is one thing, and whether or not to equip them is another. In a critical moment, it would be foolish to carry weapons and not use them. Moreover, the Great Star Region Civilization have not officially notified humanity. In their eyes, humanity is still just a Star System-Level Civilization. If they suddenly use space weapons, the Great Star Region Civilization may not be able to react in time.
According to Academician Liu's research, the space-cutting techniques used by the Tree Race Civilization cannot be used for attacks for the time being. The space-cutting attack methods used by the Fish Horse Star Civilization's warships must have other tricks up their sleeves.
Humanity already has 200 industrial planets and is constantly moving planets from afar. Several Star System-Level Civilization within 1,000 light-years have all relocated. Humanity is a behemoth they can't afford to offend, so Hu Yu didn't bother with them or try to recruit them into the alliance.
That year, just as they had predicted, the Quaking Star Civilization reached Star System-Level Civilization within 300 years. Not only did the Quaking Star Civilization achieve Star System-Level Civilization, but the South Star Civilization Star System-Level Civilization did. With humanity as their powerful teacher, coupled with their own efforts and understanding, it was only natural that they would join the alliance and reach Star System-Level Civilization within 300 years.
Fifty years later, the remaining three Stellar-Level Civilization had all reached the Star System-Level Civilization stage. As promised, Hu Yu released some of the technologies suitable for their development path. With the analysis of the Far Watcher Civilization's warships, these civilizations reached the bottleneck of a thousand times the speed of light in a very short time. Other technologies were also developing in an orderly manner, especially their population, which had exceeded 10 billion.
In 8690 AD, several miniature spaceships arrived at Epsilon Eridani. As agreed, Luo Zhigao would come here to meet Hu Yu that year. However, when the miniature spaceships arrived at Epsilon Eridani, they found that Epsilon Eridani had become a ruin. The entire airspace was filled with celestial debris and dust, and Epsilon Eridani was gone. It seemed to have been destroyed.
The miniature spaceship glided slowly through the ruins, searching for useful information. It seemed that this war had not happened recently, but had been going on for at least 500 years. The spaceship sent by Luo Zhigao should not have been affected by the war.
After gliding for several months and confirming that there were no other civilization fleets on the battlefield, the miniature spaceship began to emit electromagnetic waves. It was very likely that Luo Zhigao's spaceship was hidden among these debris. Strangely, the miniature spaceship did not find any trace of Luo Zhigao's spaceship while flying and searching. Even more strangely, no warship fragments were found in the ruins.
The entire battlefield was eerily silent; the smoke of past battles still testified to the calamity that had befallen the area. The miniature spaceship activated its scanning system, conducting a comprehensive scan of the battlefield.
Beep beep beep, beep beep beep, the scan results started triggering an alarm at the Academy of Sciences.
"It's organic matter!!! A lot of organic matter!" Academician Zeng exclaimed.
"How is that possible? We explored Epsilon Eridani thousands of years ago, and there was no civilization there, not even any living beings."
Beep beep beep, beep beep beep, all the miniature spacecraft have detected organic matter.
Everyone looked at the result with an expression of disbelief.
"General, the result is correct; there are two possibilities."
"Academician, could it be that life suddenly appeared in Epsilon Eridani over the past few thousand years? That's impossible."
"No, that's not it. The first possibility is that another civilization relocated to Epsilon Eridani during this period. It could be a low-level civilization, because only the fleets of low-level civilizations would be directly disintegrated into particle state by a stellar explosion. The second possibility is that a swarm of insects appeared on Epsilon Eridani."
