Now Xiao Yu had the feeling of standing on the shoulders of giants. Because Xiao Yu knew he was not fighting alone. It was not only himself, or the Divine Ark Civilization alone, confronting the Sweepers Civilization.
The Taihao Alliance would directly participate in the war and help Xiao Yu confront the Sweepers Civilization. The already dead half four-dinsional Taihao had left Xiao Yu the four-dinsional shield to counter the Sweepers Civilization’s soul attacks. The Guardian Civilization had handed Xiao Yu high-dinsional technological data for him to use in resisting the Sweepers Civilization’s high-dinsional attacks. The three Alien Beast Civilizations had all perished, and all of their bodily materials were used by Xiao Yu to build warships with even more outstanding performance. The already dead Micron civilization had left behind its corpse, allowing Xiao Yu to oppose the Neutron War Star. In addition, the spatial lifeform had left Xiao Yu the two-dinsional shield and the two-dinsional weapon.
Together with Xiao Yu and the Specter companions, there were a total of eleven powerful existences. Eleven powerful existences gathered here with Xiao Yu at the center to jointly confront the Sweepers Civilization.
This was absolutely the strongest group that could be organized within the scope of the Milky Way. If with such strength it was still impossible to defeat the Sweepers Civilization, then within the Milky Way the Sweepers Civilization would truly be invincible.
Xiao Yu felt that his strength had reached a peak. Yet Xiao Yu still did not know what role the arrangents made by Luka Two and Xu Junpo would play.
“Perhaps these arrangents are really, as they said, rely a helpless move made under duress, ant for my escape. But now that I have thods to counter all of the Sweepers Civilization’s attacks, how could I possibly fail?” Xiao Yu thought silently. “A full eleven powerful existences… and adding the microscopic civilization that once gave Level 7 technological data, that makes twelve.”
From the mont he received the Guardian Civilization’s technological data, Xiao Yu had already begun to analyze it. Xiao Yu discovered that the Guardian Civilization had indeed carried out remarkably effective research on high-dinsional space. They had even constrained the space energy formula within a certain range.
Just like the mass energy formula, this formula unified space and energy, thus opening the door to a new realm. The mass energy formula had opened the door to nuclear energy and driven humanity into a Level 2 Civilization. Now, between a Level 6 and a Level 7 civilization, there was also such a formula.
The space energy formula. The formula for the mutual conversion between space and energy. This formula would tell Xiao Yu how much energy a certain unit of space could be converted into, and how much space a certain unit of energy could be converted into. Once this formula was mastered, the door to a Level 7 civilization would truly be opened.
Of course, this was only opening the door. Just as when humanity first mastered the mass energy formula, it did not imdiately enter the nuclear age. That required a process.
However, it could be said that once the mass energy formula was mastered, entry into the nuclear age was a foregone conclusion; once the space energy formula was mastered, entry into a Level 7 civilization was also a foregone conclusion. It was only a matter of ti.
“It seems the Guardian Civilization was likewise troubled by the Level 7 barrier, which is why they could not fully master the space energy formula and only constrained it within a certain range. This is already a remarkable achievent. Hm, that Level 7 microscopic civilization only told so Level 7 technological data, so applied technologies rather than foundational theory. However, if I combine the Guardian Civilization’s research data with the Level 7 microscopic civilization’s research data, perhaps I will make so other discoveries.”
Xiao Yu swiftly gathered the relevant scientists and launched research in this area.
Xiao Yu had already determined the direction of this research. Since lowering the dinsionality of space would release energy, then a simple inference followed, injecting energy into space could cause space to ascend in dinsionality. What Xiao Yu was doing now was to truly create a region of four-dinsional space through his own ans. After sufficiently understanding the various properties of four-dinsional space, Xiao Yu would be able to find a way to block the Neutron War Star’s four-dinsional attacks.
But Xiao Yu’s research quickly t with difficulties, and the reason was still the Level 7 barrier. Xiao Yu had already determined that injecting energy could cause space to ascend in dinsionality, but because he had not mastered the space energy formula, he could not determine the amount of energy required. If it were only this, it would not matter. Through many repeated experints, Xiao Yu could always find the correct quantity and even work backward to derive the space energy formula. Unfortunately, this approach was not feasible.
Because of the Level 7 barrier, Xiao Yu still observed uncertainty phenona in this experint. All the experintal data Xiao Yu observed possessed certain random characteristics and were completely non-reproducible, which ant the data had no value.
“Before breaking through the Level 7 barrier, such research seems aningless.” After experiencing countless failures, Xiao Yu confird this result. He thus disbanded the scientists who had been organized specifically to study this technology.
Of course Xiao Yu did not intend to give up research in this area. Because this was the only thod to counter the Sweepers Civilization’s high-dinsional attacks. Xiao Yu’s plan was to increase the success rate through an enormous number of trials.
Suppose the probability of successfully creating a four-dinsional space in a single experint was only one in ten billion, then what Xiao Yu needed to do now was to conduct ten billion or more such experints. With ten billion experints, even if the success rate was only one in ten billion, according to probability there should be at least one success.
Thus, in the ti that followed, Xiao Yu prepared countless experintal sites and used his vast computation power to operate many experintal devices simultaneously, all beginning trials to create four-dinsional space. Xiao Yu no longer hoped to master the space energy formula at this stage. As long as he could enjoy so technological fruits, that would be enough.
In these countless experintal sites, failure played out every day. Many tis, Xiao Yu had already succeeded in creating four-dinsional space through massive energy injection, yet failed when expanding the volu of the four-dinsional space. That cursed instability flared again and again, continually blowing apart the four-dinsional space Xiao Yu had created.
It was like a vast wheat field. Xiao Yu had planted many stalks of wheat in this field. As long as one stalk finally bore grain, it would be enough. Xiao Yu carefully cultivated these plants, but instability was like the most detestable insect, killing the wheat as soon as the seed sprouted, or even before it sprouted. Xiao Yu was never able to obtain a single mature ear of wheat.
Xiao Yu did not lose heart, but continued conducting these experints. In this way, one hundred years slowly passed. Less than four hundred years now remained before the Sweepers Civilization’s arrival.
Large-scale construction advanced further and would be fully completed fifty years before the Sweepers Civilization’s arrival. The war ga was progressing smoothly. The current war ga had fully entered the fleet era. Every day, players commanded large fleets to battle under the virtual starry sky. All sorts of stratagems and tactics played out within it. But no matter how the ga evolved, first and second place were always occupied by Jianqi and Rose.
The two had even organized two guilds in the ga, which had beco the two largest organizations in the entire server. Of course, these two guilds were hostile to each other. All players in the ga knew that as long as Jianqi Guild’s fleet and Rose Guild’s fleet t, a great war would inevitably erupt.
Amid endless warfare, they both grew rapidly. Xiao Yu had even begun to consider whether to let Yang Jianqi, Rose, and so other standouts take command of real warships in interstellar warfare ahead of schedule.
Ti continued to flow. Long-term effort finally received a return. Amid countless failures, Xiao Yu at last successfully cultivated a region of four-dinsional space. It was a four-dinsional hyperbody whose length, width, height, and the length of the fourth dinsion were all ten kiloters. The mysteries of four-dinsional space were finally revealed to Xiao Yu for the first ti. To create this four-dinsional hyperbody and make the micro-scale four-dinsional structures curled within the main universe manifest, Xiao Yu had paid the price of at least ten stars.
The existence of this four-dinsional hyperbody was unstable. It was slowly losing its fourth dinsion under the erosion of the three-dinsional main universe. So Xiao Yu’s research had to be done quickly. Xiao Yu specially developed a large number of spaceships and instrunts, sent them into the four-dinsional hyperbody, and studied how to conduct ship defense and attack in a four-dinsional environnt.
“The main universe has a three-dinsional structure. All of its four-dinsional structures are curled into the microscopic and unwilling to reveal their true faces. Within the three-dinsional main universe, four-dinsional navigation is impossible. Then the only thod is to temporarily open a four-dinsional passage and use this four-dinsional passage to achieve the purpose of a four-dinsional attack. I believe the Guardian Civilization’s four-dinsional jump and the Sweepers Civilization’s high-dinsional attacks are based on this principle, only with different directions of developnt. With this principle as support, it is then easy to find a counterasure…”
Xiao Yu finally found this thod. Xiao Yu’s counterasures were divided into two types. The first was to construct a truly four-dinsional closed space to wrap around one’s own ships, sealing off the route that entered the interior of the ships from the four-dinsional direction. It was like drawing a circle in a two-dinsional world, or building a sealed iron sphere in a three-dinsional world. Only this thod also had a flaw, naly that a sealed space could be forcibly broken open. Faced with the Neutron War Star’s formidable combat strength, this thod was not very reliable.
Thus, Xiao Yu found a second thod.
