Hu Yu did not contact other Star Ring Alliance civilizations, but passively received information. This time, Hu Yu received more detailed information: none of the Star Ring Alliance civilizations had suffered retaliatory attacks from the Fish Horse Star Civilization. As for other matters in the galaxy, Hu Yu planned to deal with them after completing the work of hiding the black hole.

Although Hu Yu did not contact these civilizations, the news of the destruction of the Fish Horse Star Civilization civilization's warships spread throughout the galaxy in a short time. No other civilization could have used such a bizarre attack method except for humans. In just over a hundred years, humans not only recovered their strength but also destroyed the powerful Fish Horse Star Civilization, which made these civilizations feel even more complicated.

Meanwhile, the civilization of the Star Ring Alliance was secretly delighted, their hearts filled with more than a century of gloom. They knew that Hu Yu would definitely reunite the Star Ring Alliance as a powerful force. At that time, the Star Ring Alliance would be the second largest civilization in the galaxy after the Alliance Space. Given the speed of human development, it would not be a problem for them to even surpass the Great Star Region Advanced Civilization in the Alliance Space.

Although humanity is currently only at the early or mid-stage of the Large Star Region, the fact that it was able to destroy a top-tier civilization like the Fish Horse Star demonstrates, to some extent, humanity's strength and potential. Humanity simply lacks time; now that we have the time of the Mirror Sub-Universe, humanity's rise is unstoppable.

"When humans went in, there were only a hundred billion warships. After 60,000 years, they came out with eight trillion warships. Could there be matter and energy in the Mirror Sub-Universe? That's impossible, absolutely impossible. No, it must be like this. Hmph, I've been looking for you for so long, and you really do exist." Near the Conqueror Fleet, a shadowy figure muttered to itself. Hu Yu was completely unaware that this being was right next to the Conqueror Fleet.

The first supermassive black hole was located more than 3,000 light-years from the edge of the galaxy, not far from the exit. The Conqueror Fleet quickly arrived near this supermassive black hole.

From a distance, the enormous accretion disk, billions of kilometers in diameter, already demonstrates the power of this black hole. Judging from the condition of the accretion disk, it is certain that another star will be swallowed by this black hole within the next thousand years. In the universe, it is relatively rare for a star to actually plunge into a black hole.

Whether it's a planet or a star, they all have a certain speed. Collisions only occur when they happen to encounter a black hole on their journey. Most of the time, stars are captured by the gravity of black holes. Because stars have a certain speed, the acceleration caused by the black hole's gravity creates an incomplete gravitational slingshot effect, so there is no direct collision. Instead, they orbit the black hole for a certain period of time before gradually being destroyed.

As stars or planets orbit a black hole, matter is constantly stripped away by the black hole's powerful gravity, thus creating a massive accretion disk.

At Academician Zeng's request, Hu Yu ordered the fleet to retract its Two-Dimensional Basic Space and plunge into the accretion disk. This was the first time the fleet had come so close to a black hole. In Hu Yu's eyes, there was a huge dark space ahead, and matter would immediately disappear once it entered the edge of this Black Hole Space.

The edge of this dark space is the event horizon of the black hole. Matter rushes into the black hole at extremely high speeds. At the event horizon, there are constantly flashing electric sparks, which are photons or electrons released from atoms produced by the burst of matter energy. Some of these particles will be captured by the black hole's gravity, while others will be lucky enough to escape the black hole.

"Academician, what do we do now?"

"The only reason Zu asked us to destroy the black holes is that they are preventing him from escaping the Mirror Sub-Universe. Although we don't yet know what the connection is between him and these black holes, black holes should be able to affect not only the fourth dimension but also the space of the Mirror Sub-Universe."

"That's possible; black holes are just too powerful."

"Well, let's try severing the connection between a black hole and other universes first, and see if we can fool Zu. If we can, we'll continue; if not, we'll have to think of other methods."

"Academician, how can we sever the connection between black holes and other parts of space?"

"There are two methods. One is that we recently mastered the power of space and researched a solidified space similar to that of the Xuan Star Civilization. However, this method requires warships to remain here, which is obviously unsuitable. The other method is to increase the spatial density here to make the space more stable. Since this is a black hole, the increased energy will not escape, so it will be maintained for a long time."

Eight trillion Conqueror quickly surrounded this giant black hole. Although it was a giant black hole with a mass exceeding ten thousand times that of the Sun, its volume was not as large as that of the Sun.

The Conqueror began drawing energy from the fourth dimension. Eight trillion Conqueror, equivalent to eight trillion giant energy faucets, released energy from the fourth dimension. As energy continuously flowed from the fourth dimension to the vicinity of the black hole, the rotation speed of the accretion disk decreased.

Massive amounts of energy continue to be drawn into the vicinity of the black hole. The accretion disk has almost completely stopped operating. The area is filled with violent energy, but even with such a high concentration of energy, it has no effect on the black hole itself, only on the space around it.

A black hole is like a high-speed spinning machine. If placed in air, it would cause a hurricane. However, if placed in viscous mud, the area that the machine can stir up is much smaller. What the fleet is doing now is turning the air into mud to weaken the black hole's influence.

In the fourth dimension, the spatial vortex caused by the black hole has also become much larger. The stronger the influence of the black hole, the smaller the vortex. Now that the influence of the black hole has weakened, the vortex has lost control and will gradually expand. If the black hole suddenly disappears, the vortex will expand to an even larger area before slowly disappearing.

"Alright, that's about enough. At this rate of absorption, it should last for about 500 years. Let's head back to the Secondary Universe."

" Jianchuan, you and the academicians go back first and wait for me near the passageway. I still have some things to take care of."

"General, you're going to deal with the Fish Horse Star Civilization? Even with Two-Dimensional Energy, we're no match for the Fish Horse Star fleet. Fish Horse Star should be prepared now, and we might not be able to achieve our intended combat objectives."

"Don't worry, I won't engage in direct conflict with the Fish Horse Star Civilization, but we can't defeat Fish Horse Star Civilization on our own; we need a powerful force."

"Yes, we'll be waiting for you at the entrance." Academician Zeng didn't say much more. Hu Yu had now fully matured into a qualified leader and no longer needed his assistance.
