Chapter 477 Swallowing Everything (1/2)

Chapter 477 Devouring Everything

A spaceship that flies civilization.

This is a spaceship with a pure golden surface, and it looks like a disk, somewhat like a flying saucer.

The size is actually about the same as a flying saucer, a few meters in diameter.

Of course, for a small civilization, these few meters in diameter are actually quite large, and hundreds of thousands of lives can be crammed inside.

The entire spacecraft looks like a disc, with some ridges on the surface, which are weapons.

At this time, Yan Xia was communicating with Haru.

They were talking about the two previous attacks by flying civilization.

This is not the first time they have communicated.

Logically speaking, the conversation about the attack would be over quickly, but in reality a lot of other things would come up in the conversation.

For example, a certain point of view collides, and then leads to some other discussions, and then days or even months pass.

"According to this, the first attack is not actually a complete attack."

"After all, what comes here are actually just detectors. Although they are loaded with some weapons, they are far from reaching the level of war."

"The second attack is different. The other party sent a stronger spaceship and consciously began to avoid you."

"There is a certain continuity between this and the other. I think that the results of the first experiment have been obtained by other means, so they decided to use the spacecraft for the second time."

Yan Xia carefully studied the two attacks suffered by the flying civilization.

The first time was actually somewhat similar to the Federation's trip to the four-dimensional space, in that it was all about detection.

It's just that the enemy civilization in the fourth dimension obviously anticipated that it might reach the three-dimensional space, so it equipped some simple weapons.

This is not normal.

"Indeed, we have similar speculations."

"The objects that reached three dimensions twice before and after were not small in size, and they were definitely not something that could be mass-produced."

"If this is the case, then we have reason to believe that the other party's exploration of dimensions is actually very deep, or that it is easier to come from the fourth dimension to the third dimension."

Yan Xia found this idea very interesting.

Because the federation's guess and the flying civilization's guess are completely opposite.

In their guess, it is the most difficult to come from the fourth dimension to the third dimension, and the third dimension is the safest.

This is all an analysis based on the information they obtained. After all, the Federation has only experienced one invasion.

But after saying this, combined with the three invasions, Yan Xia also found a point that the Federation had never paid attention to.

"An attack the Federation experienced was a life-like entity."

"The purpose of it coming to the third dimension is to send three-dimensional information to the fourth dimension."

"It actually has a very strong purpose. This should not be a coincidence."

In fact, it may be a coincidence, but it is always right to be vigilant. It is always better to characterize this matter as purposeful and then investigate it than to characterize it as a coincidence and not investigate it, or to explore it but be lax. of.

And the possibility of this kind of thing being a coincidence is actually very low.

After all, they are all advanced creations.

Yan Xia said: "Then there are two possibilities."

"There is an advanced civilization in our corresponding four-dimensional space, maybe level 2.7 or level 2.8. They are making faster progress in dimensional exploration than we are."

"It's also possible that this is a common phenomenon."

"Higher dimensions are easier to explore lower dimensions. For example, when we explore two-dimensional space and one-dimensional space, it is easier to understand than four-dimensional and higher dimensions, because we are facing known dimensions, not location dimension.”

Either one is not good news.

Yan Xia seems to have seen a future where a large army is pressing down on the country.

Haru agreed with Yan Xia's words.

"I hope this discovery can promote cooperation between our civilizations. After all, we are not powerful civilizations."

It said this sentence without any political overtones.

It's almost impossible.

The political gap between civilizations is like a gap in the sky.

If you want to become a close ally, in addition to fusion, you can only fuse until the situation deteriorates to the point where integration is no longer possible, rather than cooperate.

What we are talking about here is the large social and political level. We can cooperate casually on the small side, after all, it does not touch the fundamental interests.

"I hope so."

Yan Xia said.

"But now I think it's too late to wait."

"The arrival of the third invasion means that civilizations in the four-dimensional space are becoming more and more aware of dimensional passages."

"Perhaps the fourth attack will come sooner than we think."

"And large-scale invasions may happen within the last tens of thousands of years."

To be honest, Yan Xia didn't dare to think about such a scene.

Because they are not ready for it.

Of course, it can be said that it is not prepared at any time. Even if the Federation becomes a level 2.9 civilization, it will still be unprepared. After all, it is facing an unknown enemy from another dimension.

You can't even imagine what their methods are like.

"It's not a good time to talk about these heavy topics. Don't politicians want to convey dreams?"

"Oh, by the way, I'm not your civilized being, so you don't need to get my hopes up."

Haru found these topics too heavy.

Academics don't like these heavy topics either.

Not to mention it's in the future, not now.

Focusing on the things at hand is the most important thing.

After Haru finished speaking, his body suddenly paused. After a few seconds, he came back to his senses and said to Yan Xia: "Information is coming."

Yan Xia instantly focused.

He watched Haru spread out the information he had received.

There were texts, pictures and videos in it.

When he saw the video, he and Haru both felt their breathing stagnate for half a second.

"What is this?" Haru asked in surprise.

Yan Xia looked at the information above solemnly.

"I call this a tide, and later renamed it a wave."

"It comes from the dimensional channel and should be a product of a four-dimensional space civilization. It can avoid detection and absorb energy at the same time."

"It is expanding rapidly at a speed of 150,000 km/s. The kinetic energy required for this speed is beyond imagination."

"Not only that, this thing looks endless, and it doesn't even feel diluted as it expands."

Yan Xia kept reading, and he couldn't help but wonder if the information was wrong.

Because as of now, nothing can stop it.

It seems to be a wave in the ocean of the universe. Although it is inconspicuous, it is backed by the sea.

"This is definitely a large-scale invasion."

"We should stop now and observe the situation over there."

Haru was very anxious at this time because he had not observed before.

Small civilizations have advantages and disadvantages.

For example, the small telescope does not have enough light, which means that it cannot observe farther.

The telescope on this spacecraft may not even be better than some astronomical telescopes launched by the earth in the 20th century.

There is no way.

This is the limitation of physics.

To break through this limitation, a lot of energy support is needed.

For example, using gravity to absorb photons in a fairly large range is equivalent to creating a black hole at the front of the telescope, and it is not a small black hole, after all, the range of influence of a small black hole is limited.

What Haru said about stopping is to stop the spacecraft, then remove the restrictions and make the spacecraft bigger.

This spacecraft is not small to control the production cost, for example, the spacecraft is a normal piece of metal processed with a few fine processes.

It is not like this.

It is a large spacecraft with a diameter of several thousand meters that is reduced to this using special technology.

The former can indeed save a lot of materials, but there is no way to have advantages in other aspects.

For example, how to carry the equipment inside, these equipments are all shrunk, and they may weigh tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of densities.

For small civilizations, the mass of objects will not change when they are shrunk.

Even the pressure in a place will increase to the extreme.

There is basically no feeling of a 1 kg object pressing on a person's hand, but what if the 1 kg object is a needle?

The tail is very large, and the needle tip is very thin. If it is pressed on the hand, it can directly pierce the hand.

It is impossible to let the shell of a few-density spacecraft carry these super heavy equipment, even in the universe.

After all, there will always be objects with gravity. When approaching, these devices are likely to cause damage to this cheap shell under the influence of gravity.

So this requires some anti-gravity devices to solve this problem, and the energy consumption of anti-gravity devices is not small.

In short.

Flying civilizations do not make such cheap things. Perhaps this cheap phenomenon exists in other things, but it is absolutely impossible to use this technology on spacecraft.

Haru made the spacecraft return to its original size.

It uses a telescope to observe the distance.

Sure enough, a sphere was seen expanding.

"The information said that they launched a ball of that thing's material." Yan Xia saw the new information.

Haru didn't care about why it was them, not him.

It directly ordered the spacecraft to release more detectors around, and then launched many sticks. The function of these sticks was to form a giant electromagnetic net in the universe to capture that material.

"The electromagnetic force will be absorbed by that thing." Yan Xia reminded.

Haru hummed, it knew this, the electromagnetic net was only for exploring that material, not for capturing it.

The real backhand was still on this spacecraft.

"Don't underestimate the technology of our civilization."

The net was big enough.

It covered a range of 200 astronomical units around in 10 days.

"If this can't be captured, then it's not our civilization, but your accuracy of launching is too poor."

Haru is very confident in the technology of flying civilization.

However, this wait is a long time.

The information explained their method of collecting materials. Yan Xia felt that there was a high probability of failure. After all, the requirements were too high.

It needs to be completed in such a short time, which is simply impossible.

But Haru is very sure that the thing will definitely come.

Yan Xia asked why.

Haru said: "Because it's you!"

Although they didn't spend much time together, Haru knew Yan Xia's character. Is there anything in the world that a madman can't do?

This reason made Yan Xia laugh and cry.

But this is also a recognition of Yan Xia.

...

126 days later.

The electromagnetic net sensed an object penetrating it and quickly sounded the alarm.

"Here it comes!"

The speed of that substance is much slower than the speed of light, which is why it is late.

"That thing is quite fast, are you sure you can catch it?" Yan Xia asked.

Haru laughed.

"It has been captured."

Yan Xia was stunned, then quickly realized that the flying civilization had obviously developed some fixed-point control technology.

The electromagnetic net could not capture that thing, so if it had to be used, it would definitely be gravity.

He thought of the scene when they arrived at the research institute before, when they were all pulled in by gravity.

"Gravitational traction can also be used as gravity capture. This power should be enough to serve as a weapon."

This is just a spaceship. What if a huge warship uses this technology?

That is equivalent to the warship growing invisible hands and moving at the speed of light.

The matter was captured back.

An accident happened just after entering the spaceship.

The matter began to rush towards the surrounding matter as if it existed, and then quickly swallowed up those substances.

Haru quickly increased the power to completely control the entire matter.

"This thing is indeed a creation, it is obviously a destructive weapon."

Destruction level is the definition of flying civilization.

As the name suggests, it is destruction, pure destruction.

"And it is large-scale." Yan Xia said.

He showed Haru the latest information from the telescope.

Haru looked at it and was so surprised that he couldn't calm down for a long time.

"That thing is devouring stars!"

That's right.

The black waves have reached the star system where the previous flying civilization probe is located, and it is gradually submerging the star.

The reason why it is determined that it is devouring, not simply submerging.

Because the star flickers like a variable star, which is caused by its own instability.

The only thing that can make a star appear like this is the imbalance of matter and gravity.

Swallowing stars.

This is simply unheard of.

At this time, Haru looked at the matter inside the spacecraft and felt a little scared.

Scholars will also be afraid.

Fear of unknown and terrifying things.

Things that are not understood will destroy everything. The motivation that supports scholars' research is not only the interest in unknown objects, but also the fear of unknown objects.

One is motivation, and the other is pressure.

The coexistence of the two creates scholars.

Scholars are not fearless.

Yan Xia also thought that this substance was very powerful. It was actually very difficult to devour the energy of a star. Although the Federation had similar devices, they were devices, not these small creations.

The levels of the two were very different.

"It seems that we underestimated this third invasion. This is a real full-scale invasion."

We must find a way to solve it.

Otherwise, it is likely to expand endlessly until it submerges the flying civilization.

It is still unknown what its limit is.

It is easy to know from its expansion to that star that the diameter of that thing has exceeded 6 light years at this time.

This kind of macroscopic view is too amazing.

Compared with it, what is the ring world of Shuiweiyi?

"Now I will send a message to the king and ask him to send troops over."

Haru was obviously anxious, and he couldn't make up his mind.

But Yan Xia was also sure that this was the most correct choice now. They had no ability to deal with this thing.

Yan Xia shifted more of his attention to this small mass of matter inside the spacecraft.

I don't know if it will provide some answers.
