Of course, three-dimensional to four-dimensional is far more complex than two-dimensional to three-dimensional, and this operation would not have been possible without the advanced technology of the warship.
The Reaper had been encapsulated in the fourth dimension, had just returned to the three-dimensional universe when the fourth dimension exploded like a prehistoric beast, falling from the fourth dimension back to the three-dimensional universe. The disappearance of the extra dimension meant that countless energies were about to be released. The Reaper's Reversed State Armor was like dust encountering a hurricane in the face of this energy, and was completely swept away.
This explosion could be clearly felt even in the fourth dimension, far more powerful than a stellar explosion. If the Demon Scorpion Civilization hadn't built a spatial dome, it would have definitely attracted the attention of a large swarm of insects.
Hu Yu and Dongdong both thought that the Reaper could get close to the mechanical behemoth, remove the energy isolation layer, and then cause the dimension to fall, creating an explosive effect to attack the mechanical behemoth.
Now I finally understand why the Demon Scorpion Civilization said that dimensional reduction attacks cannot be precisely controlled. The fourth dimension was just too violent inside the Reaper, as if a thin sheet of paper was trying to wrap around the Sun. Hu Yu is certain that even Great Star Region Civilization could not trap the fourth dimension. This is the power of space.
The Reaper's explosion point was at least ten light-years away from the mechanical behemoth. At this distance, even the most powerful energy could not possibly have any effect on the mechanical behemoth. Even the Reaper or Star System-Level Civilization's warship would not be able to threaten them at this distance.
" Old Hu, this deviation is too far. No wonder the Demon Scorpion Civilization said they wanted to defend; it turns out they were afraid of making a fool of themselves."
"They might actually be setting up measures to prevent the spread of these machines."
"I don't think so. They clearly wanted to leave this mess to us. Now look what's happened. The first attack was off by ten light-years, and who knows how many Reaper we'll have to use to hit the mechanical behemoth. We only had a little over 60 billion to begin with, and now the mechanical behemoth has swallowed up more than 1.5 billion ships. Who knows how many more billions will have to be used to hit the behemoth. Tens of thousands of years of work for nothing! Sigh! But Old Hu, Mr. Dongdong, have you noticed anything unusual about these Mechanical Civilization warships?"
"Something's wrong? Chief of the General Staff, have you discovered something?"
"First of all, these warships are wasting Virtual Energy so recklessly. They couldn't even withstand the corrosive liquid sprayed by ordinary echinoderms. Also, Virtual Energy doesn't seem to have any effect on our Reaper."
"It's not surprising that our armor is special and can isolate energy. I also noticed that they use Virtual Energy in a limited way, not as wastefully as you say. From the beginning until now, the mechanical warship has launched Virtual Energy five times, and hasn't used it anymore. It should be almost exhausted. However, it is indeed strange that they can withstand the spatial attacks of the Demon Scorpion Civilization but can't withstand corrosion. These echinoderms are only at the eighteenth or nineteenth level, and their corrosive ability is quite limited. We'll get some fragments for the academicians to study later."
" Old Hu, why don't we let the Reaper retreat? Anyway, the Zerg swarm is holding back the mechanical behemoth. The energy of the dimensional reduction attack is too terrifying; the Reaper can't withstand it. This is the culmination of countless years of our hard work."
"General, let us handle this. Over ten billion warships may seem like a lot to us, but our industrial system is a hundred times larger than yours. We can afford this loss. Let the warships in the three-dimensional universe be evacuated in batches. However, it's best not to attract the pursuit of the Mechanical Civilization. The range of the three-dimensional universe connected to this spatial dome is limited. Once the mechanical behemoths escape this range, we will be unable to attack them."
"How can we let you bear this loss alone? Let's all work together and see who's lucky enough to attack the mechanical behemoth first. Whoever gets to attack it first wins."
"Haha, alright, let's make a bet with the general."
The first batch of 5 billion Reaper ships successfully withdrew from the three-dimensional universe. The interference from the swarm greatly restricted the movement of the mechanical behemoths; otherwise, the Reaper's losses might not have been 1.5 billion ships, and they might have been completely wiped out.
Instead of giving chase, the mechanical behemoth once again began breaking through the swarm's encirclement, charging outwards.
"Damn it, Old Hu, these bastards are trying to escape!"
"Mr. Dongdong."
"I understand, let's begin."
The Reaper Carina Civilization's warships rained down on the airspace where the mechanical behemoth was located. After continuous attempts, they discovered that the three-dimensional universe corresponding to the dome built by the Demon Scorpion Civilization was about 20 light-years away.
Twenty light-years is merely a short distance for the fleet, but in reality, maneuvering these billions of warships to strike the giant ship of the Demon Scorpion Civilization is extremely difficult. There are no predictable patterns here; space itself is in constant motion, especially the irregular motion of four-dimensional space. Entering three-dimensional space from the same location, the first time the deviation might be ten light-years, the second time it might only be one light-year.
If the Demon Scorpion Civilization's warships hadn't locked this part relative to the three-dimensional universe, the fleet might already be lost in the fourth dimension.
Warships continued to descend from the fourth dimension into the three-dimensional universe, which was already shattered. The nearest warship from the Carina Civilization civilization exploded less than two hundred astronomical units away from the mechanical behemoth, and the violent energy swept through the swarm of insects, surging towards the mechanical behemoth.
The mechanical behemoth was overwhelmed by the violent energy descending from all directions; the intensity of this energy was something even a mechanical behemoth could hardly withstand.
"Master, what do we do now? They're launching a dimensional reduction attack. Space has been distorted to the point that even we can't use warp drive anymore. We're essentially trapped in this airspace, and they could appear right next to us at any moment."
"Have all the civilizations in this universe gone mad, actually using warships to transport fourth-dimensional space! If it weren't for these level four civilization warships, those 500 million level five civilization warships wouldn't have been able to do anything to us. Now, let's go to the fourth dimension!"
"But Master, even the lords of the Fourth Dimension dare not go there. If we go now, we'll probably only be destroyed by them."
"In the three-dimensional universe, we can only wait to die. Going to the fourth dimension offers a glimmer of hope. Once we arrive in the fourth dimension, all the mechanical entities will immediately separate and find their own way back to this universe. With the addition of these level-four civilization warships, we have no numerical advantage. We cannot complete the lord's mission for the time being. We must lie low and await the lord's activation command."
"Yes, Master."
The mechanical behemoth immediately found a relatively calm space, then quickly disappeared into the fourth dimension. As soon as the mechanical warship reappeared, the long-vanished Demon Scorpion Civilization fleet suddenly appeared and surrounded the mechanical behemoth from all four dimensions, with all the warships releasing a dazzling burst of light.
