"How can you sever the connection between a neutron star and a black hole? A black hole carries the stars in a galaxy, meaning it carries the entire space of the galaxy. We are in the middle of it, so how can we sever this connection?"

"Well, I just think this method is feasible, but I still need to study how to do it."

"Academician, the Zerg swarm is moving, and we are advancing as well. Even if we don't advance, the Zerg swarm will make contact with the fleet in only five or six years, and by then it will be too late."

"Okay, I'll think about it carefully, and everyone else should think about it too, are there any other solutions?"

The battle at the defensive line continued relentlessly. Hu Yu decided to strike first, having the bio-warriors control a portion of the swarm. If the swarm reached the defensive line, these controlled insects would then cause chaos within the swarm.

The battle at the defensive line was intense. Hu Yu still managed to forcefully deploy a billion Conqueror to break through the insects' defenses and advance forward. Along the way, the insect swarms continued to fly towards the battlefield. The Conqueror were not idle either, directly carving a bloody path through the insect swarms. Facing the Conqueror, these insects had almost no ability to resist.

Fortunately, the swarm was still near the Matter River. The Conqueror received a message from a Bee- shaped spaceship hidden within the swarm. However, there was still some distance between the swarm members. The Conqueror directly towards the swarm, which was two hundred light-years away.

Without using any offensive means, the Conqueror switched to its conventional power engine and increased its speed to 0.5 times the speed of light. This speed gave the Conqueror powerful kinetic energy. Although the Conqueror's mass was less than that of a Star System-Level Civilization's warship, the impact of this enormous speed, combined with the Conqueror's blade-edge design, directly sliced the insects apart. In an instant, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and corpses piled up like mountains.

Immediately afterwards, the Conqueror began dropping two-dimensional bombs in all directions. The bombs exploded inside the insects, killing or injuring a large number of them before they could even react. However, the number of insects killed by the Conqueror was negligible compared to the swarm. The nearby insects reacted and began attacking the Conqueror.

The Conqueror had been waiting for this opportunity. Once the swarm had surrounded them, almost touching each other, the Conqueror began to weave through the gaps in the swarm at faster-than-light speeds, while secretly releasing their bio-warriors. By the time the bio-warriors were released, the Conqueror had already advanced tens of light-years. At this point, it was impossible to retreat, as the swarm had completely surrounded them.

Some insects used their pincers, tentacles, and secondary heads to grab the Conqueror. The massive Conqueror were nothing more than large toys in the face of these giant insects. The insects were incredibly strong and fast, and with the extremely high density of the swarm, the Conqueror were easily caught in this confined space.

Once the Conqueror is captured, no matter how loud the engine roars, it cannot escape from the bug's grasp. However, the Fifth Reversed State is indeed powerful. No matter how strong the bug is, it has no way to deal with the Conqueror. After tormenting the Conqueror for a while, the bug found that it could not be destroyed and became extremely violent, grabbing the Conqueror and colliding them with each other.

Well, that's it. The Conqueror's internal instruments were instantly shattered, but the insects didn't know the Conqueror was destroyed and continued to ram into it frantically. At that moment, an insect that was only ten thousand kilometers long swam over. Its flat body was covered in red and green, and hundreds of sharp spikes that were a thousand kilometers long stood up on its back. Its huge mouth was full of fangs.

Wherever this worm went, other worms made way. Behind it followed millions of giant worms that looked exactly like it, except that these worms were slightly smaller and lighter in color. This was a rare sight in the swarm of worms, as their appearances varied greatly, and the higher the rank of the worm, the greater the differences between them.

Some Conqueror who hadn't been caught by the worm immediately roared at the flat worm. Strangely, any attack that reached the worm was deflected. The space around the worm seemed to be flowing. One Conqueror rushed straight at the worm, trying to use its powerful kinetic energy to break through the flowing space and reach the inside. However, the Conqueror failed miserably. It twisted and deformed the moment it entered the flowing space, and then Conqueror drifted away with the flow of space.

Suddenly, the worm unleashed a powerful burst of energy. As the energy increased, it opened up the fourth dimension. However, it did not enter the fourth dimension. Instead, it pulled the fourth-dimensional space into its surroundings, directly enveloping the Conqueror attacked it. Normally, such a vast fourth-dimensional space entering the three-dimensional universe would have caused a massive explosion.

However, this time there was no explosion. The insect directly transformed this three-dimensional space into a four-dimensional space. The insect did not understand any technology, but it used energy and space so easily and freely, just like a bird that does not understand aerodynamics but can still fly freely.

To prevent the insects from attacking from the fourth dimension, the Conqueror immediately activated their internal mechanisms to physically seal off the fourth dimension. Without sealing off the fourth dimension, even the strongest city wall would be useless during an air raid.

The other insects around retreated one after another. Apart from the small, flat insects, Hu Yu was also a little trembling when he saw this scene. Such a huge four-dimensional space appeared in the three-dimensional universe. If a dimensional reduction explosion occurred, even the Fifth Reversed State would not be able to withstand it. However, the insects clearly controlled this four-dimensional space and prevented the space from undergoing dimensional reduction.

The Conqueror did not retreat; retreating would be useless. The insects had completely surrounded Conqueror. A small, flat worm appeared next to one of the Conqueror with lightning speed, attacked a few times but failed to break through the Fifth Reversed State's defense, and then slowly retreated.

The insects seemed to be watching their prey in a cage without any urgency. In their eyes, the Conqueror was probably just a piece of cake. Hu Yu Wen Zhonghua, on the other hand, were getting anxious. This insect was definitely not simple. It was very likely the king of insects in the three-dimensional universe. Otherwise, so many high-level insects wouldn't be so obedient.

Suddenly, Hu Yu noticed that the Conqueror were being destroyed one by one, but the insects didn't make a sound. Apart from the one that attacked at the beginning, the other insects didn't move at all. Yet, the Conqueror were destroyed one by one without any scratches on their surfaces.

"What's going on! Old Hu, this is too strange!"

"Damn it, we've been tricked." Even Hu Yu, who never swore, couldn't help but curse.

What exactly happened?

"The insects secretly reduced the dimensions of the space around the warship, while our warship is still a four-dimensional structure. It's no wonder it broke down."

"No wonder, that worm was actually inspecting our warship."
