Hu Yu also witnessed an even more terrifying attack method: the insects were actually decomposing space. One insect rushed to the side of the giant ship, and then the four-dimensional space where the giant ship was located suddenly became a three-dimensional space. Space was reduced in dimension, but it was not a dimensional collapse, but rather Space Decomposition.
The four-dimensional space was decomposed into three-dimensional space, and the warship in the space was also decomposed into eight parts, some more and some less. With an explosion, the warship turned into fragments.
The insect's ability to decompose space is similar to decomposing a hypercube. A hypercube has 8 cubic cells. In a sense, 8 cubes can form a hypercube in the fourth dimension, and vice versa. A hypercube can also be decomposed into 8 cubes.
The insects use this method to reduce the dimensions of space, destroying even the warships within it. This bizarre attack method is almost impossible to defend against. The Great Star Region Civilization can only rely on the three-dimensional space created by space-based weapons to constantly entangle with the insect swarm. Here, every warship and every insect is a battlefield, and the large-scale group battles seen in the three-dimensional universe are rare.
If war in the three-dimensional universe is a chaotic battle of thousands of troops wielding spears and swords, then war in the fourth dimension is a contest between two swordsmen using their superior swordsmanship, because the fourth-dimensional space is far larger than the three-dimensional space.
As time passed day by day, the defense line gradually advanced. Near the Matter River, a huge swarm of insects began to form. The insects in this swarm varied in size, but each one was at least level 25. In the past, it was difficult to gather these high-level insects together, as they each had their own territory.
Except for a very small number of insects that came from the Milky Way, the rest descended from the fourth dimension. This giant insect swarm quickly reached a number of trillions, occupying a vast space of hundreds of light-years. Apart from the high-level insects fighting on the front lines here, no other high-level insects could be seen in the entire galaxy. The insect swarm also understood the combat strategy of concentrating superior forces. The piecemeal tactics would only lead to its own destruction. Thus, this super insect swarm was born.
"General Hu Yu, something terrible has happened, there's new information." Late at night, Bi Cha contacted Hu Yu, who was just about to rest, sounding quite anxious.
"General Bi Cha, what's going on?"
"Just now, one of our Endeavor deep into the Insect Zone to scout the situation. Look, a large number of high-level Zerg have gathered here. If this swarm charges, we simply don't have enough fleets to stop them."
"It is indeed a problem. At the speed of the swarm, it will reach our defenses in six or seven years. We simply cannot gather such a large fleet to deal with them in such a short time."
"Yes, if we divert our fleet, the defenses could be breached by other Zerg swarms, so I've come to you for advice."
"This swarm of insects is too large. Even if all the Conqueror and Endeavor went to fight them, they couldn't stop them. General Bi Cha, you rest first, I'll think of a solution."
Okay, let me know immediately if there's any news.
Ignoring the late hour, Hu Yu and Wen Zhonghua piloted the spaceship towards Earth Two.
" Old Hu, should we deploy the two-dimensional Conqueror?"
"No, these Conqueror are our protectors."
"Okay, I know that two-dimensional antimatter planets are even more immobile."
Over the past 20,000 years, Hu Yu not only secretly created more Conqueror, but also five antimatter planets. Each antimatter planet is the size of Jupiter. This was calculated by Academician Zeng. It is not necessary to have an antimatter star to cause space collapse; an explosion with a certain limit is sufficient.
Humanity as a single civilization cannot produce enough antimatter. Furthermore, the production of the fleet has already consumed a great deal of productivity. Therefore, the antimatter produced over 20,000 years would only be enough to create five antimatter planets the size of Jupiter.
These five antimatter planets, after being two-dimensionalized, are hidden in the fourth dimension. If these antimatter planets silently arrive at the territory of a certain civilization, there will only be one outcome: annihilation. Hu Yu is constantly accumulating power. Without major breakthroughs in basic technology, only by accumulating this power can humanity have a trump card to save its life.
The mastermind behind the battle on Fish Horse Star has still not been found. According to Mr. Daozi's prediction, the mastermind behind Fish Horse Star may be one of the five Great Star Region Civilization. However, Mr. Daozi has actively ruled out the Heavenly Peak Civilization, which means that the other four Great Star Region Civilization are also possible, or there may be other hidden Great Star Region Civilization. Therefore, Hu Yu must be on guard.
On Earth Two, Academician Xiao's laboratory was still brightly lit, and Academician Zeng had also come over from his own laboratory.
"Thank you for your hard work, academicians."
"General, what's the matter that's so urgent? Is there a problem with the defense line?" Academician Zeng asked.
"Yes, we just received news that a super swarm of 100 trillion high-level insects has formed. The Great Star Region Advanced Civilization are currently unable to mobilize their fleets, and the fleets at the defensive lines are also engaged in fierce battles with the insect swarm. We are powerless to stop this newly emerged insect swarm, and it is very likely that it will break through the defensive lines, causing all our efforts to be in vain."
"General, you're trying to take advantage of my biological warriors again, aren't you?" Academician Xiao said with a laugh as he took off his gloves.
"It's truly a last resort, but Academician, if we don't use it now, all your tens of thousands of years of research will be wasted once we wipe out the insect swarm. Don't you think that's a pity?"
"Sigh... I really hope I don't have to use it. Every time I do, I feel guilty like I've committed murder."
"Academician, biological warriors are just a low-level species. Aside from loyalty, they're mostly bloodthirsty. If you don't need them, then bring them to me. I don't feel guilty," Wen Zhonghua said.
"Alright, I'm not an old man who's stuck in the old ways. The important things are the priority. But General, it's best to keep the fact that the bio-warriors can control the insects a secret. Although we've become Great Star Region Civilization, we're still far behind them in terms of strength. Besides, the bio-warriors are still immature, so we won't get much power from them."
"I understand, Academician. What level of insects can bio-warriors control now?"
"Around level 25 to 27."
"So high? Perfect, let's wipe out this swarm of insects in one fell swoop!"
" Old Xiao, how do you control the bugs with this little thing you made?"
"Don't underestimate this thing." Academician Xiao held a small, terrifying-looking monster in his hand. "I've thought of countless ways to increase its power and Consciousness Field. As long as it's attached to the insect, it can influence the insect to open its mouth obediently. Then it will enter the insect's brain and influence the insect with its Consciousness Field, thus achieving the goal of controlling the insect. It will be loyal to humans, and the insect will also be loyal to humans after being invaded."
