"If that's the case, the Fish Horse Star Civilization must have positioned the crack opposite one of the gravitational channels or the gap created by the explosion in the fifth dimension. It would be extremely difficult for us to break through either of those places," Wen Zhonghua analyzed.
"Divide all fleets into five groups for a full-scale attack: four gravitational channels and one breach. We humans will be responsible for the breach, dealing with the Mechanical Civilization and the Fish Horse Star Civilization fleet inside. Tell everyone that the Fish Horse Star Civilization will soon be able to repair the internal sealing sphere. Once they repair it, all previous efforts will be in vain."
Indeed, the Fish Horse Star Civilization rotated its internal sealing sphere and aligned the crack with one of the gravitational channels to minimize damage. This allowed them to use the gravity released by the crack to directly attack the fleet outside the fortress. Although the area controlled by the crack was larger than the channel entrance, the area covered by the channel's gravity was almost the same as the weakened zone.
The gravity of a black hole is infinite, but the equipment that controls gravity cannot operate for long periods of time because the gravity of a black hole is so strong that the original gravity, plus the gravity that cannot be guided at the crack, is poured into the gravitational channel, causing the equipment in the gravitational channel to be subjected to enormous pressure.
The Fish Horse Star Civilization could only continuously adjust the position of the black hole to reduce the pressure on the equipment in the gravitational channel. The attack from the outside began again. Due to the influence of the gravitational channel and the counterattack of the energy pillars, the fleet could only attack from a distance. After several rounds of attacks, the fortress showed no signs of being breached.
The Expeller rampaged through the Mechanical Civilization 'Mechanical Civilization fleet, while simultaneously facing their counterattacks. Although the Mechanical Civilization could not harm the Expeller, their various attacks and collisions made it impossible for Expeller to maintain their position in space, making it extremely difficult to reach the gap and enter the fortress.
Fortunately, everyone knew that the opportunity was fleeting, and no civilization retreated. Braving the impact of the energy pillars and gravitational channels of the Fish Horse Star Civilization, they continued to launch attacks from the edges. Finally, after more than a dozen rounds of attacks, a huge gap appeared on the surface of the Super Fortress, and the massive gravitational channel still stood at the center of this gap.
Everyone finally saw hope, and more warships began rushing in this direction to join the battle to widen the gap. At this moment, the Mechanical Civilization fleet finally showed a weakness, and the Expeller charged directly into the gap that had been blasted open in the fifth dimension.
The gap was filled with a dense array of Fish Horse Star Civilization warships. The Expeller completely disregarded the Fish Horse Star warships' blockade and forced their way through the Fish Horse Star fleet, entering the interior of the Super Fortress. At the same time, a large number of Milky Way civilization warships emerged from another gap.
Everyone finally felt a little relieved. Just as they were preparing to take the fortress in one fell swoop, Li Shun's army quickly arrived at the Boötes battlefield through the fourth dimension. Faced with the sudden appearance of the insect swarm, all civilizations tensed up again. One moment it was Mechanical Civilization, the next it was the insect swarm. How many unknown factors were still in this war?
Hu Yu immediately guessed that the one who came to cause trouble must be Li Shun. Only Li Shun could command so many insects to cross the galaxy and arrive at Boötes. Moreover, judging from the insects' formation and behavior, they were clearly insects that had undergone brain transplants. Li Shun's people had two Consciousness Field, which made their transplantation operation very smooth. Although Hu Yu did not yet know why Li Shun's people had two Consciousness Field, he would definitely ask Daozi about it next time he met Daozi.
The second breach has expanded to a size of 500 million kilometers. Continuing the attack would be much less effective. The fortress area corresponding to the crack in the blockade sphere has shrunk considerably. During this time, the Fish Horse Star Civilization must have been working overtime to repair it. This breach is large enough. Civilization warships poured into the fortress like a tide, followed closely by Li Shun's insectoid civilians.
The once empty interior of the Super Fortress suddenly became bustling with activity. Over 500 trillion warships from various civilizations and 200 trillion insects made the fortress no longer silent, yet relatively calm. No one knew the purpose of these insects, not even the Fish Horse Star Civilization knew why the insects, or Li Shun, had arrived at this time.
In the Secondary Universe, 30 trillion mechanical warships, after decades of sailing, have arrived at the location of the Star Ring Alliance. However, decades in the Secondary Universe are only a few days in the main universe. This massive fleet is enough to make the Star Ring Alliance take notice, because most of the Star Ring Alliance's fleet is already engaged in battle in the Boötes, leaving very few fleets behind.
Two generals, Chen Peng and Yang Fan, remained at the base. Although the battle at the front was extremely urgent, Hu Yu still left two generals to be responsible for the safety of the hundreds of millions of people in the base.
The arrival of this mechanical army was immediately detected by the Star Ring Alliance, and the bases were put into a state of emergency. Currently, apart from the Xuan Star Civilization, whose bases were repaired by themselves within the Alliance's small space, the bases of other civilizations were all gifts from humanity and functioned the same as those used by humans themselves. These spaces are not obvious in the Secondary Universe, and it will not be easy for the mechanical army to find them.
The mechanical army weaved through the gaps between other civilization bases, heading straight for the human base. Chen Peng and Yang Fan frowned. The Dark Moon Civilization was right; someone had leaked the civilization's coordinates. But who knew both the Dark Moon Civilization base and the human base? In the Secondary Universe, apart from the Star Ring Alliance, no other civilization could possibly know about the human base. The Star Ring Alliance was definitely not a suspect; they couldn't possibly know about the Dark Moon Civilization's base.
Just as Chen Peng and Yang Fan were organizing the fleet and preparing to launch an attack on the enemy, Zu came knocking. Since the arrival of the Snow Tribe, everyone had witnessed Zu's transformation. He had gone from a lonely and indifferent ball of light to a loving and somewhat carefree old Rabbit, often wandering around the fleet and chatting.
"Mr. Zu, we're busy right now." Chen Peng had no intention of chatting with this old Rabbit.
"I know, I'm here to help you."
"That's right, the Secondary Universe is your territory, why are we still busy with this? Mr. Zu, how has your recovery been these past few years?"
"Negatively low, but it's no problem at all for dealing with Mechanical Civilization. You can prepare to send robots to receive the fleet. I originally wanted to leave it for Yan Xue, but he insisted on giving it to you. It doesn't matter; all humans of the Snow Tribe are the same."
"Mr. Zu, if you go out like this, what if your opponent..."
"Don't worry, it hasn't been to the Secondary Universe for a very long time. It's probably doing something else important. The current chaos in the galaxy is definitely partly its doing."
