At the very start of the long return voyage from the Large Magellanic Galaxy to the Milky Way Galaxy, Xiao Yu had already begun preparing for the coming war. The two studies on invading a small universe and dealing with four-dinsional jump had been placed in the hands of several of the most outstanding scientists, who, with Xiao Yu’s full support, launched their research efforts.
Ti passed slowly. Xiao Yu’s fleet never halted, and the pace of technological progress never stopped either.
For Xiao Yu, who now possessed imnse research capabilities, even if he did not move against the Guardian Civilization, relying solely on his own research and the accumulation of ti, he could still push his technology to a level comparable to the Guardian Civilization. But the mutual enmity, as well as a faint sense of urgency in his heart, made Xiao Yu unwilling to do so.
Exterminating the Guardian Civilization was sothing Xiao Yu had decided long ago. He had no intention of changing his mind.
Intergalactic travel was, in truth, a very boring undertaking, because the distance was too long and the process far too monotonous. In Xiao Yu’s detection instrunts, there was always a stretch of void. The only matter he could encounter was so dust within the Magellanic Stream. There were no stars, no planets, nothing at all.
In this state things remained for more than a thousand years. Xiao Yu’s second Star-Class warship was finally completed. In comprehensive performance it was on par with the first Star-Class warship that Xiao Yu rode, but it leaned more toward offense. From the outset, Xiao Yu had intended this Star-Class warship to serve as the flagship of the assault fleet.
Xiao Yu equipped this Star-Class warship with all the advanced offensive thods he could command. The space shattering attack was made more advanced. The space shattering attack that originally required the coordinated action of multiple Planet-Class warships could now be launched by a single Star-Class warship with greater power and a wider area of effect.
The space shattering attack was the most powerful among conventional attacks at Xiao Yu’s current technological level. Not only that, Xiao Yu left sufficient expansion room for the Star-Class warship. If his technology advanced again later and he developed so other advanced offensive weapons, he could very conveniently add those functions.
In terms of defense, Xiao Yu equipped the Star-Class warship with the most advanced space folding shield, and supplented it with a two-dinsional shield and a four-dinsional shield. Coupled with ample energy supply, speaking strictly of defense, Xiao Yu did not believe his Star-Class warship would be inferior to the Guardian Civilization’s ship the Radiance.
Of course, this was only in terms of defense. In comprehensive performance, this Tianyuan IV Star-Class warship still lagged behind the Radiance. It was even sowhat inferior to Technology Taihao’s ship the son.
“The next accumulation of technology will have to be obtained through the Guardian Civilization.” Xiao Yu thought silently. “After obtaining the Guardian Civilization’s conventional technology, my technological level will reach the pinnacle below Level 7. Together with the Micron Civilization’s corpse, my strength will reach a summit. At that point, it will be ti to confront the Sweepers Civilization.”
This war with the Sweepers Civilization had been planned by the Sweepers Civilization and the Taihao Alliance for several million years. It was destined to happen and was a fate Xiao Yu could not escape. Even if Xiao Yu did not provoke the Sweepers Civilization, the Sweepers Civilization would absolutely not let Xiao Yu go. The sweet fruit cultivated through so much effort and energy could not possibly be let go by the Sweepers Civilization.
“In this sequence of steps, acquiring the Guardian Civilization’s technology is a crucial link.” Xiao Yu thought. “I already have a way to counter the Guardian Civilization’s four-dinsional jump, but unfortunately, I have not yet made a breakthrough in the technology of how to attack a small universe.”
During these thousand-odd years, the research team led by Xu Junpo once again delivered an answer that greatly satisfied Xiao Yu. Four-dinsional jump was the Guardian Civilization’s lifeline. It was precisely because of this technology that the Guardian Civilization could contend with the Sweepers Civilization for tens of millions of years. Now that Xiao Yu had to deal with the Guardian Civilization, he naturally had to find a way to neutralize this technology. Without cracking four-dinsional jump, everything else would be empty talk.
In a very dramatic turn, the research team led by Xu Junpo did not achieve a new technological breakthrough, yet still found a way to deal with four-dinsional jump. It was still the two-dinsional technology already possessed by Xiao Yu. Over these thousand-odd years, Xu Junpo and Xiao Yu focused on only one thing, naly, demonstrating the feasibility of using two-dinsional weapons to counter four-dinsional jump.
After more than a thousand years and several major improvents to the two-dinsional weapon, this area finally received verification. The conclusion was that two-dinsional weapons could indeed be used to disable four-dinsional jump technology.
The principle was also simple to state. Four-dinsional jump technology, simply put, achieves escape by moving through a space of a higher dinsion. Its accurate na should be high-dinsional jump technology. It is only that the main universe is three-dinsional space, and the dinsion higher than that is naturally four-dinsional space, hence this technology is commonly called four-dinsional jump.
Given the irresistible quality of a high-dinsional space over a lower-dinsional space, four-dinsional jump cannot be blocked by actions at the level of three-dinsional space. Unless Xiao Yu could also attain technology of higher-dinsional space, it would be impossible to block the Radiance’s four-dinsional jump. Yet Xiao Yu could completely solve this problem by changing his approach. Specifically, upon discovering the Radiance, he would imdiately two-dinsionalize the space around the Radiance. This could be easily achieved using a two-dinsional weapon.
Then sothing interesting would happen. Because the essence of four-dinsional jump is a jump to a higher dinsion, and because this region of space had been two-dinsionalized by Xiao Yu, then the dinsion one higher than two would naturally be three. In such a place, four-dinsional jump would be degraded into three-dinsional jump. And what is three-dinsional jump?
An ordinary human on Earth jumps from the ground, and his position changes by a certain displacent. This is a three-dinsional jump, because in the process, the human’s feet leave the ground, a two-dinsional plane, and enter three-dinsional space. When he lands, his feet reenter the two-dinsional plane of the ground. Simply put, this jump does not carry out motion along the two-dinsional plane, yet produces two-dinsional displacent. This is a three-dinsional jump.
Once four-dinsional jump is degraded into three-dinsional jump, it naturally amounts to nothing for Xiao Yu. The Guardian Civilization’s proud, life-preserving four-dinsional jump technology, which allowed it to contend with the Sweepers Civilization for tens of millions of years, was thus cracked by Xiao Yu through two-dinsional technology.
“Space fold and four-dinsional jump can both be neutralized with two-dinsional technology, while instant slicing of the small universe plus space shattering can be taken head-on through the powerful defenses of a Star-Class warship. At present, the only obstacle is the technology for invading a small universe.” Xiao Yu thought silently.
After Xu Junpo fully verified the feasibility of using two-dinsional technology to counter four-dinsional jump, he also joined the other research team led by Luka Three and Number Five. Xiao Yu’s computational power also began to tilt in that direction. Regrettably, however, several hundred more years passed, and until Xiao Yu reached the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy, no breakthrough had been achieved.
Looking at the familiar Milky Way Galaxy, Xiao Yu could not help but feel a touch of emotion. When he left the Milky Way Galaxy, although he was already a Level 6 Civilization, he could only rank at the very bottom among the powerful existences of the Milky Way Galaxy. After more than eight thousand years away, upon returning again, he could already consider the Guardian Civilization his prey.
“If I still have a chance to leave the Milky Way Galaxy again, it will certainly be after I have destroyed the Sweepers Civilization. The Milky Way Galaxy may be my tomb, or it may be the springboard by which I enter a higher echelon. The final outco will be enacted here.” Xiao Yu thought, slowly entering the range of the Milky Way Galaxy.
After entering the Milky Way Galaxy, the density of matter increased significantly. In fact, there is no clear boundary between the Milky Way Galaxy and the outer space, and the abundance of matter changes gradually. The closer to the Milky Way, the higher the density of matter, and the farther away, the lower it is. But Xiao Yu’s current position was undoubtedly already within the Milky Way Galaxy, for he had now entered more than one thousand light years into it.
During this period, Xiao Yu collected nearly one hundred more stars and placed them into his small universe, raising the material reserves within to the highest level. At this mont, Xiao Yu had reached his most peak state.
“As long as I master the technology to attack a small universe, the conditions for dealing with the Guardian Civilization will be mature. Then it will be ti to set out to find the Taihao Civilization. I hope the Taihao Civilization possesses the technology to attack a small universe.”
Xiao Yu calculated silently. At this very mont, a colossal silhouette was detected by Xiao Yu.
This figure possessed a body as vast as a planet. Curled up, it was much larger than Xiao Yu’s Star-Class warship. With its arrival, Xiao Yu sensed a breath full of mania and the aning of destruction.
“Divine Ark Civilization, greetings. I have waited here for you for five thousand years.” This colossal existence sent a ssage to Xiao Yu.
“Hm? Alien Beast Taihao? Why are you alone? Where have Technology Taihao and Specter Taihao gone?” Xiao Yu asked.
