In 51569 AD, Academician Li Youwei finally had a stroke of luck. While researching higher density Reversed State matter, he unexpectedly synthesized the Fifth Reversed State. The Fourth Reversed State required 180 million tons of matter to be converted per cubic centimeter. Although the Fifth Reversed State was still far from Academician Li's goal, it was much more than the Fourth Reversed State, requiring 300 million tons of matter to be converted into energy per cubic centimeter.
The birth of the Fifth Reversed State made Hu Yu slightly happy. Every technological advancement is now very important. The biggest progress in the last 4,000 years has been the extraction speed of Virtual Matter. In addition to the ever-expanding extraction scale, the extraction technology is also constantly being upgraded. Now it can reach 100 million tons per year, or rather, negative 100 million tons, because the mass of Virtual Matter is negative. It is enough to manufacture a billion Virtual Matter arrows.
Virtual Matter is the most powerful type of matter to date. With enough Virtual Matter, it could even wipe out an entire galaxy. However, the amount of Virtual Matter extracted so far is not even enough for the fleet. To consume the entire galaxy is undoubtedly a pipe dream. Trying to dig through the Earth with a shovel is possible, but it's unknown when it will be possible.
In a space near the Star Ring Alliance, hundreds of coordinate base stations float, and some large, strangely shaped spaceships have entered the fourth dimension; these are high-energy collision spaceships.
The collision of energy is the result of Academician Liu's research. Academician Liu believes that the collision of energy can change the Basic Space, transforming the Three-Dimensional Basic Space into Two-Dimensional Basic Space. This is why we now have this strange spaceship. In the fourth dimension, it is no longer afraid of being spied on by other Great Star Region Civilization, because the spaceship has sealed off the fourth dimension. However, this collision experiment still needs to be carried out inside the spaceship, because the theory of Basic Space is really too astonishing.
In the collision of energy, there is a certain probability that the Basic Space will change and give birth to a macroscopic Basic Space. The microscopic Basic Space is still unobservable, but the macroscopic one can already be discovered. These spacecraft use the continuous collision of energy to extract the macroscopic Two-Dimensional Basic Space.
If warships could be two-dimensionalized, it would undoubtedly increase their combat power dozens of times. Academician Liu said that if this technology were leaked, the five Great Star Region Civilization would threaten humanity, seize the technology, and even destroy humanity. Civilized beings are selfish; they are capable of anything for absolute profit. Currently, these Great Star Region Civilization, but they haven't encountered any interests that tempt them. Therefore, before they have the ability to protect themselves, all the work on two-dimensionalization must be carried out in secret.
Hu Yu believes that it will take some time before they can defend themselves. At least for now, they need to understand the strength of the Great Star Region Civilization's warships. In this attack on the Fish Horse Star Civilization, the two-dimensional warships cannot be used openly. They can only apply two-dimensional technology to other attacks, such as antimatter bombs and Virtual Matter arrows. In the chaotic battlefield, under the impact of various energies, even light cannot propagate normally. They can quietly launch these two-dimensional bombs for targeted attacks, and the Great Star Region Civilization will not be able to detect them.
"A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." Now, a great deal of Two-Dimensional Basic Space space has been extracted, enough to arm a hundred million Exterminator. However, not a single warship has been two-dimensionalized. Academician Liu's caution is absolutely justified. Hu Yu is even more cautious than Academician Liu in this regard. All Two-Dimensional Basic Space is strictly stored in a top-secret place, and even among humans, no more than a hundred people know about it.
Stinger Stinger has undoubtedly been the most produced ship in recent years. Its production is extremely simple: a Reversed State hull and a few engines are all that's needed. In any case, energy is now inexhaustible. Stinger production once exceeded 50 million ships per year, and that was without going all out.
The Fourth Reversed State Stinger would definitely not be very effective against the fleet of the Fish Horse Star Civilization. The Fifth Reversed State might be able to play a role, but Hu Yu doesn't care about the Stinger's attack power. As long as it can have even a slight effect, that's fine. Right now, it's just a phase of accumulation.
If the Exterminator fleet has a 20% chance of defeating the Fish Horse Star Civilization, adding the Xuan Star Civilization's fleet brings it to 30%, the antimatter star adds another 10%, and adding up all other factors little by little until it reaches 5%, then it can take action. 60% or 70% is a good chance, and Hu Yu doesn't even dare to hope for 80% or 90%.
Hu Yu confirmed the coordinates of the Fish Horse Star Civilization given by Heavenly Peak Civilization several times, and they were indeed correct. The Fish Horse Star Civilization's fleet would emerge from different places each time, but these places were all centered on the coordinates of the Fish Horse Star Civilization's base. Although the distances from the center of the coordinates varied, they were quite obvious.
Based on this information, Academician Zeng drew a rough map of the Fish Horse Star Civilization's settlement. Unlike the Tree Race or the Carina Civilization, where the Carina Civilization's fleet and Tree Race members returned directly from their settlement to the wider universe, the Fish Horse Star Civilization opened at least six passageways around its settlement. The fleet would depart from the settlement, travel along these passageways to distant places, and then return to the wider universe.
The entire base resembles a giant worm with six long legs. This layout gave Academician Zeng some new ideas, such as how to launch an attack in another way. So Academician Zeng threw himself into new research work and gathered a large number of academicians from the field of space physics to participate. This is currently the most important project.
In the year 52500 AD, Academician Liu and Chen Peng secretly returned to the Alliance from the Tree Race. Academician Liu had changed his appearance; he was thinner, had grown long hair and Xiao Hu, and his lifestyle had been forcibly altered. Even Academician Zeng found it difficult to accept this new face of Academician Liu Academician Liu. People from other civilizations would never recognize him as Academician Liu. Although his name hadn't changed, all beings in all civilizations knew that a human name could govern tens of thousands, or even millions, of people, especially a common name like Liu Bo, which was used by even more people.
Back at the base, Academician Liu also devoted himself to the research work on the Fish Horse Star Civilization base. Currently, the observations of the Fish Horse Star Civilization base are all from thousands of light-years away. Some Wriggler antimatter micro spacecraft have entered the vicinity of the Fish Horse Star Civilization base, but have not gained anything. Everything here is so ordinary and normal.
"Mr. Dongdong, has any news reached the defense line?"
No at the moment.
Are you sure?
