"Let's go, time is running out. By the time we get back, the Super Fortress will probably have already entered the Milky Way. And I also need to investigate the NGC 3109 system. Time is of the essence."
"I still have some connections with the Zhonghua, Aurora Civilization, and Firefly Civilization. It's inconvenient for Mr. Daozi to get involved, so you need to handle this matter well. We're the ones asking for help this time."
"I know, I'll take care of it. Asking for favors isn't difficult. Let's go, Number One."
Daozi left with Wen Zhonghua and Number One. It is believed that with Daozi's abilities, it should not take long for him to reach Sextans A. However, it will definitely take two or three hundred years for him to return with the fleets of the Aurora Civilization and the Firefly Civilization. If Daozi can guide them in the fourth dimension, this time may be shorter.
A large number of people were left bewildered. What Daozi told them was hard for them to accept at first glance. Who would have thought that this galaxy had its own consciousness, and that these civilizations had set up such a massive chess game in order to compete for control of the Galactic Consciousness?
The most important task now remains stopping the advance of the Fish Horse Star Civilization's fortress. It's a race against time, as time is life, and it concerns trillions upon trillions of lives in the Milky Way. Attacking the Super Fortress is no longer realistic, but dealing with the Mechanical Civilization is still achievable.
In the Secondary Universe, the bases are working around the clock to produce Virtual Matter and two-dimensional fragments. These materials are quite useful against Mechanical Civilization. The Virtual Matter was exhausted in the previous war, and the two-dimensional fragments were almost depleted as well. Fortunately, the Secondary Universe has a time advantage, and the Virtual Matter and two-dimensional fragments produced now are enough for the fleet.
"Fellow academicians, what are your thoughts?"
"General, we have studied the Third Energy. Ordinary energy is composed of only three Basic Space: a cube, a triangle, and a sphere. The Third Energy has an additional, constantly changing Basic Space. Because it changes every moment, we speculate that this Basic Space may be a multidimensional structure."
"Multidimensional structure? The Basic Space of the fourth dimension is only three-dimensional, so how can there be Basic Space for a multidimensional structure?"
"It's still unclear. Three-dimensional and four-dimensional are just the most basic dimensions. Mr. Daozi has mentioned higher-dimensional universes and multi-dimensional worlds. These worlds may have ten, twenty, or even more dimensions. Those worlds are definitely different from ours, but they may have some connection. This connection may be the Basic Space of multi-dimensional space. Of course, this is just my conjecture. If we completely master the Third Energy, we might be able to easily conquer the fortress, but it seems that this is still a long way off."
" Academician Xiao, what progress has been made in the research on consciousness?"
"General, do you know why I've created countless biological warriors and deployed them to the Insect Zone over the years?"
" Academician Xiao deserves much credit for the effective control of the insect swarm."
"No, I'm not just after the swarm; the Insect Emperor is my target. In recent years, the bio-warriors haven't controlled the insects at all. Instead, they've been parasitizing them, lurking within their bodies, including Li Shun's people. They're just waiting for the right moment when all the insects will use their consciousness to attack the Insect Emperor's consciousness. No matter how strong the Insect Emperor is, he probably can't withstand the fierce attack launched by the endless swarm in an instant."
Upon hearing Academician Xiao's words, everyone gave him a thumbs up. Academician Xiao was usually quiet and unassuming, but they hadn't expected that he had already set his sights on the ultimate scourge, the Insect Emperor.
"These insects can not only deal with the Insect Emperor, but also deter any civilization. That's why I didn't want to make the matter of the bio-warriors public before. But now it's alright. We are no longer afraid of any civilization in the galaxy. It's just that the Insect Emperor's Consciousness Field Consciousness Field is too powerful, completely different from that of ordinary insects. If ordinary insects are a sharp blade, then the Insect Emperor is a piece of steel. Only by gathering an endless amount of insect consciousness can we possibly harm the Insect Emperor. And I'm currently trying to find a way to improve the strength of the bio-warriors', or rather, the insects', Consciousness Field."
"Time, oh time, what we lack is time. Even in the Secondary Universe, we still don't have enough time. The fortress of the Fish Horse Star Civilization is advancing relentlessly. Minister, do you have any thoughts on this?"
"Me? I can offer some opinions at the Star System Level stage, but we have almost no experience in wars beyond Star System Level. I forgot to ask the old man earlier if he set a trap for us, causing us to waste so much time on the wrong timeline. Now the fortress is insurmountable, and the Expeller ' effectiveness in annihilating the mechanical fleet has been greatly reduced. Perhaps we need to think outside the box and not limit ourselves to small-scale attacks, but instead look at a broader space. For example, you did a great job attacking the Xuan Star Civilization; the spatial vortex made the Xuan Star Civilization suffer terribly."
"Hmm, I understand." Hu Yu said thoughtfully.
"I can't help with the fighting outside anymore, so leave the base's security to me. You can do whatever you want without worry. The base will do everything it can to ensure supplies. Now that our two bases have merged, plus the time advantage of the Secondary Universe, we're confident we can guarantee supplies to the front lines."
Hu Yu finished arranging the Virtual Matter and the two-dimensional fragments and headed back into the vast universe. The Super Fortress continued its advance, Mechanical Civilization fleet simply retreated into the fortress, no longer engaging in direct conflict with the galactic civilization fleet. Now, the galactic civilization fleet could only watch helplessly as the Super Fortress continued its advance towards the Milky Way, getting closer and closer...
Most of the civilizations in the galaxy have begun their intergalactic escape. They may know that they will all perish once the galactic black hole is destroyed, but they are still struggling desperately for a sliver of hope for survival. Perhaps by moving away from the galaxy, their civilization can continue. Hu Yu did not stop them, nor could he stop them.
Given the current situation, the Milky Way civilization no longer has the power to stop the actions of the Fish Horse Star Civilization. In a few hundred years, their Super Fortress will reach the Milky Way. Escaping sooner might offer a sliver of hope—it's a biological instinct. All that's left is despair; they can only watch as death draws ever closer.
Every moment, countless warships fly out of the Milky Way, and the galaxy quickly becomes desolate. The once bustling Milky Way suddenly becomes extremely bleak. Warships or spaceships that were once everywhere are now hard to find. Apart from the occasional high-speed fragments of warships that still indicate the past prosperity, the rest of the place is dead silent.
