In the blink of an eye, more than two trillion Conqueror have been forced out by the Giant General Civilization. However, it seems that the destructive power of the dimensional reduction attack is also affected in three-dimensional space. Although the Conqueror are forced out, very few are destroyed.
Even if the Giant General Civilization were to reduce the dimensions of the entire fleet of the other three Great Star Region Civilization, it would still be very difficult to destroy the Conqueror unless they happened to arrive next to Conqueror.
Although the spatial density has not changed, space has actually changed from a basin of clear water to a basin of viscous paste. Dimensional attacks are also based on the existence of space. Now that space has become so dense that even warp drive is impossible, the impact of dimensional reduction attacks is also very obvious.
Although Yan Xue's fleet did not have Reversed State, its defense was also good, and its losses were not much more than those of the Conqueror. It was just a pity that their fleet was too small. The Giant General Civilization's fleet had an absolute numerical advantage, and soon Yan Xue's fleet size dropped to less than 20 billion ships.
" Qin Yin, any progress?"
"The power of space has changed drastically for no apparent reason. Apart from a change in the rules, I can't find any other explanation. The rules of this space have been altered, and they've been changed in a way that's detrimental to us."
"The other side can easily travel between three dimensions and four dimensions, but we can't. Qin Yin, this rule can't be changed like this, can it?"
"Differentiation is key. Our warships are different from those of the Giant General Civilization. The rule changers must have implemented differentiated measures to address this difference. That's why warships from the Giant General Civilization can easily traverse four dimensions, while ours cannot. I'm still analyzing this difference, hoping to find the reason. However, even if I find the reason, it won't change anything. Our warships cannot be changed again."
So, it's not a natural phenomenon, but rather a result of a more advanced civilization changing the rules?
"I don't believe an advanced civilization could possess such power, but this change is already targeting us, and it's definitely not a natural phenomenon."
" Qin Yin, find a way to find the cause, change it, and bring the rules back."
"Yes, I will do my best, General. Now there is a risky idea that we might be willing to try," Qin Yin said, smoothing her long hair from her forehead.
We're already taking a risk.
Qin Yin's idea was to make it seem like she was going to destroy the entire Sextans. Although this method was somewhat risky, the fact that the other party wasn't taking action personally meant there were certain limitations. Even if she did it this way, the other party might not actually make a move. Besides, Hu Yu was also very interested in seeing the power behind this.
The plan was quickly finalized, and Hu Yu immediately ordered all warships to scatter. The Conqueror Fleet, like a giant firework launched from the Sextans, shot off in all directions.
There are still three trillion two-dimensional Conqueror. The Giant General Civilization can only pursue the two trillion exposed Conqueror. Once the Conqueror moving, and with the destructive power of the dimensional reduction attack greatly affected, the Giant General Civilization realizes that even if these outsiders cannot enter the fourth dimension and use dimensional reduction attacks, they cannot eliminate them.
After accelerating to 0.6 times the speed of light, the Conqueror shut down its conventional power engine and relied on inertia to glide, leaving the Giant General Civilization without even a target to pursue.
The Conqueror, following Hu Yu's orders, relentlessly destroyed all celestial bodies along their path. Whether they were stars, planets, or asteroids, any celestial body in the Sextans was destroyed. In the blink of an eye, more than two hundred years had passed, and all celestial bodies within a radius of one hundred light-years had been destroyed.
The Giant General Civilization could only wait by the distant stars for the arrival of outsiders, but it was no use. Although the two-dimensional bomb was useless in the fourth dimension, it was still useful in the three-dimensional universe. The Colossus Giant General Civilization simply could not protect every star. Although Sextans was not as large as the Milky Way, the number of stars in it was still considerable.
If this continues, within ten thousand years, except for a few extreme celestial bodies, no other stars will be visible in the entire Sextans Sextans will disintegrate, and the civilization of Sextans will become homeless. Although this will not have much impact on the Great Star Region Civilization, who can tolerate their home being destroyed by outsiders?
The exposed Conqueror simply ceased their operations, traversing back and forth in the airspace within a few light-years, allowing the Giant General Civilization to relentlessly expend its fleet in dimensional reduction attacks. The other three civilizations under the Giant General Civilization often had to lose several to a dozen warships to directly destroy a single high-speed Conqueror. After losing nearly a trillion warships, the Giant General Civilization also stopped attacking, instead dispatching its fleet to monitor the Conqueror.
Hu Yu and Yan Xue had already traveled more than 200 light-years, and a huge empty area with a diameter of more than 400 light-years had appeared in Sextans. During this time, Qin Yin had been closely monitoring the changes in spatial data. On this day, while Qin Yin was capturing spatial data in the open environment of the Conqueror, she inadvertently discovered a strange energy.
Currently, the fleet's Basic Energy has only two structures: positive energy and Virtual Energy. Both of these energies are special combinations of Basic Space. There is no third type of energy. However, the Basic Space structure of the newly captured energy is completely different from the previous two. Qin Yin noticed the difference at a glance.
Academician Qin Yin named this energy the Third Energy. Positive energy and Virtual Energy energy are composed of only three Basic Space: cube, equilateral triangle, and sphere. However, the Third Energy is composed of three additional Basic Space that are constantly changing. Its shape changes every second, which makes Academician Qin Yin feel very strange.
Strange as it was, Academician Qin Yin immediately realized that the existence of the Third Energy might have changed the rules. However, the Third Energy could not be copied, and it was extremely rare in space. If it weren't for good luck, it would be difficult to discover the existence of this strange energy. Academician Qin Yin carefully sealed away a portion of the Third Energy she had captured, intending to hand it over to Academician Zeng and Academician Liu for research after returning to the base. Perhaps they could glimpse a trace of the essence of the rules.
Just as Academician Qin Yin was painstakingly researching the Third Energy and attempting to break the rules, Hu Yu suddenly discovered that the fleet could now perform warp drive and traverse the fourth dimension. The Superintelligent Robot were even more sensitive, and as soon as they discovered this, they all gathered towards Hu Yu, and all the Conqueror regrouped.
But this time, the two-dimensional transformation of all the Conqueror failed. More than 7 trillion Conqueror and 1 trillion Dreadnought were all exposed in three-dimensional space. It was clear that the beings that changed the rules did not want this bizarre attack method of humanity to continue. They had already made a concession by restoring the rules.
