Star Empire

"...Obviously, that is some kind of new high-level information. It is necessary to extract the space channel structure inside the faulty machine as much as possible while ensuring the safety of the crew!" Vidoville said on the network, "This kind of mutation, I’m afraid it’s a rare thing, and its appearance… should be of great value to the empire!”

"If this is the case... General Eskett, we need more assigned resources to adjust the fleet structure!" In the center of the strange information storm, all the frigates were already close to the shell and crystal matrix of the dreadnought. Try to reduce the protection range of the crystal energy shield as much as possible to reduce the pressure on the dreadnought, but this does not improve much - the white matter constantly spewing out from the center of the vortex is like mechanical nanoworms devouring metal structures, disintegrating everything nearby. The information, the weird zero intensity, even such a high-purity arcane vortex cannot neutralize it.

The body of the disk-shaped battleship began to tilt. Under such an information impact, even with the empire's most powerful single crystal energy shield, it was difficult for the spacecraft to maintain its stability, and because a variety of high-level information was The impact and annihilation of each other, coupled with the increasingly deep and terrifying void cracks on the world barrier and the fact that the spacecraft did not completely lock the void engine, these factors combined are gradually pushing the universe to the edge of disintegration.

"Your Majesty, please resolve it as soon as possible - the source of this incident is beyond all else! If this delay continues, the cosmic environment in this world will not be preserved!" Zhai Cahir's thought transmission and the alarm of the cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchor were heard by the emperor. rang in their minds together.

The pressure of reality being distorted and destroyed has exceeded the maximum stability working threshold of the universe's benchmark stabilizing anchor. Under such an environment, the universe itself began to become unstable. The deep and vast stars seemed to be frightened and began to tremble violently, and some of them even Some weird stars will instantly expand into surfaces and lines, and then be squeezed into various structures that still exist at the quantum scale and have not yet been fully controlled and expanded by the cosmic benchmark anchor.

The spiral galaxy that was originally running smoothly began to be stretched or flattened, like dough being processed. The nebula began to flow in an abnormal manner. Thousands of light-years-long star-blown rings and thick clouds in the hydrogen-rich star-making region rolled like clouds blown by a storm. Around the most severely affected areas, in large areas of space that were originally empty, pieces of light and shadow structures like total reflection mirrors and extremely bright white light groups began to gradually appear.

Space, which contains billions of galaxies, has begun to collapse as a whole under such external pressure, but... the stability of the world still exists.

The structure of the world is far more profound and complex than the cosmic environment... Disturbance at the world level is more like action at a distance, which can directly trigger phenomena beyond the limitations of physical space... If the universe is indeed only what we can see, the huge self-consistent world If it is a straightforward projection of the system, then perhaps these problems can be explained...

"The structure of the world is more complex than we imagined... Even if the imperial facilities can control the world, we may not be able to understand many details from the world..." Vidoville shook his head.

"The abnormal reactor has been contacted from the "side" and the penetration operation has begun!" Such a message came from the fleet that was already buried deep in the arcane vortex. Due to the serious interference, most of them require high communication bandwidth. Basically all external links are closed, and only the basic communication network is still running.

…

"It has broken into the outer wall of the reactor...the reactor has been severely damaged, and the integrity of the basic structure is less than 50%. The mathematical space channel structure is still intact..."

"The terminal has been found...started to search the log...Record: The mathematical structure of the space channel has mutated, and the overall mathematical model and multiple parameters no longer conform to the original structure of the arcane void decay equation...Due to strong interference, this message cannot be send……"

Everyone was sweating for them.

Looking at the huge arcane curtain wall outside the ship that was still slowly expanding and squeezing the world, and sensing the faint communication, Vidoville felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

…

"It has begun to approach pure mathematical space... The space structure itself has good stability, and the integrity of the charging protective wall is good... The furnace core itself is almost undamaged, and the white matter jet has not directly eroded the furnace core structure. Start trying to take samples... Attention! Personnel Fall back, fall back!”

"What's going on?" Hearing the sudden rush of communication, Eskett suddenly felt a little nervous.

"We have observed the dismantling process of external information by white matter. We have recorded and completed the sampling. The samples are stored in crystal energy encapsulated force field storage boxes. Several people have been seriously injured and their souls have been preserved. The souls were lost...the original body was abandoned... "

…

Communication is becoming increasingly sparse, and under the nervous gaze of everyone outside, the entire universe has begun to resemble a starry sky photo that has been exposed for a very long time. With the cosmic benchmark stable anchor as the base point, everything begins to collapse and tilt toward the base point. Go down.

The huge stars are like light spots dotted on the black curtain, being pulled into crystal clear but ferocious twisted curves under the distortion of external forces. Just seeing these are completely inconsistent in the sky. The starry sky map that orders the laws of the universe will make ordinary people feel that their minds and subconscious are slowly being polluted.

But soon, a faint golden cross flash erupted from the center of the arcane vortex, and the recorder quickly locked onto this faint light spot like a cross star.

The spaceship rushed out of the dense purple swirling cloud and accelerated to a million times the speed of light in an instant. Driven by the crystal energy jump engine, the half-open and half-closed order field that was forcibly activated even drew out in space. A strange rift tens of thousands of light years long.

"The cosmic benchmark anchor stopped buffering the universe and began to cut the damaged area of ​​the second hexagram." After seeing the advance spacecraft fly out intact, Weisruifan immediately issued the order to exile - just like a burning area that had already Generally speaking, if a house is out of control, allowing it to develop or maintain its current state without being able to prevent the spread of disaster will only lead to the expansion of the disaster. In such a situation, it is better to destroy it completely.

After receiving the emperor's order, the information lines that should have been completely invisible in the cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchor began to be exposed continuously. Some of the information lines began to be cut off, and more structures began to be "tightened", like a highly elastic The membrane is rebounding normally.

The already very distorted universe instantly bounced back like a movie played in reverse, and a more normal scene once again occupied space. After losing the supplement of external information, the size of the void rift began to expand suddenly, and after losing the calculation and evolution support of the cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchor, the tens of thousands of light-years of the universe itself also came to a standstill, and in the larger scope of the universe In the environment, a huge and dim golden ring began to appear and strengthen.

The universe was cut open.

The huge golden ring that existed in the background, as if it was close in front of us but could never be reached by any conventional engine, suddenly shrank to a point. Then, everything seemed to return to its once stable state, within the background radiation of this universe. The arcane field is still filled with arcane fields, but the "field source" no longer exists.

…

"This... has finally been solved, and no one died." Vidoville breathed a sigh of relief after taking a look at the processing report, "This universe has entered into repair operations and restored the arcane field source supply area as soon as possible. In addition... …Cosmic Baseline Stability Anchor, please note that once it detects similar situations occurring in other universes, it will immediately prepare for the final banishment process, and once the event gets out of control, it will initiate the final plan.”

"...At the same time, gather all researchers and mobilize all the resources of redundant calculation arrays! The empire must know why this happened, whether it is likely to happen again, and how we should use it or prevent it. Related events!”

Half an hour later, a message came from the control tower of the void information terminal in the north celestial pole of the multiverse that was monitoring the event: the structure of the exiled world fragments was no longer visible, and the void information noise had been reduced to normal levels.

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

"There is an unexpected gain in this rescue operation...another type of damage caused when the spacecraft is overloaded..." Kalost searched the structure of the entire spacecraft: near the output port of the space channel reactor and the crystal energy guide pipe network There are structural deficiencies in the general management positions, which is the same situation as the products of order being exposed to the void.

"Then I have another part of this information here. Some people have suffered a certain degree of soul damage. They need more time to re-perfect their memory and personality..."

As Kate said this, she looked at the diary projection that was unfolded based on Calost's suggestion. The log shows that in order to increase the total crystal energy output of the power furnace as much as possible, the constraint limit of the space channel is constantly decreasing. When it exceeds a threshold, the information flow pouring out from the output terminal undergoes a major change in appearance - golden yellow. The crystal energy disappeared and was replaced by an extremely deep black jet. This jet can still flow in the pipe like normal crystal energy, but the difference is that this black crystal energy will be intensely The erosion output end and energy conducting pipe network.

Just like the void.

"Even at the information level, we still can't get rid of the overload loss... Tsk, I originally thought that the overload loss would disappear after the thermodynamic problem is no longer a problem. However, it seems that such overload has not directly damaged the most important part of the space channel reactor. Mathematical structure, as long as the mathematical space structure is not damaged, the redundant part will spontaneously obtain energy and repair the overall structure to normal value."

Vidoville nodded at the report, "By the way, this time the cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchor has implemented a completely different cosmic operation mode. Regarding the related issues about this part, Cavinriel, please study it and see if this can be controlled. There are no more detailed workflows for the super-device of the entire universe.”

"Understood, Your Majesty."

"Okay... let's study the culprit that caused this change." Vidoville snapped his fingers, and the safe box that had been "sealed" under the table began to rise slowly, and a layer of light The golden stream of light climbed onto the large floating box almost at the same time. When this layer of crystal energy shield comes into play, a layer of shield, either light gold or lavender, rises on everyone nearby.

If it were in the past, such dangerous things would have been stuffed into the emergency medical test module and locked up tightly. At the same time, a team of people wearing protective suits that could withstand high-energy gamma rays would have been dispatched to study them.

However, so far, as the truth of all things has begun to be understood, many inexplicable existences no longer need those weird and complicated research techniques to determine their properties - this weird white matter can indeed return zero information, but it seems that it There is also the possibility of being controlled.

In other words, if imperial technology is used to measure the impact it can have, then it is equivalent to a level that can only achieve high-level information equalization, or at most superimpose backdoor operations.

…

After determining the approximate effectiveness level of the white matter, coupled with the total information gap between the two sides of the interaction and the shield change data returned by the previous dreadnought ship - it can be determined that the current crystal energy restraining field in the box, the box In addition to the crystal energy shields, the redundant strength of the crystal energy\\arcane shields on everyone's bodies was far greater than the redundancy left by the dreadnoughts at that time when they resisted a direct attack by white matter.

…

"Currently, the crystal energy constraining field inside the box does not fluctuate... The white matter does not seem to have any interaction with the information flow that restrains it... This is inconsistent with the data sent back by the dreadnought."

"But the fluctuation of the Dreadnought's crystal energy shield definitely shows that the white matter did affect the stability of the crystal energy shield to some extent at that time, and the amount of information did not affect it equally." Zhai Cahill shook. Shaking his head, "The attribute gap between high-level information is likely to be different backdoor problems. On this issue, we..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhai Cahir focused his attention on the stored samples in the big round table in front of him: through the enhanced information perspective, everyone could observe it, and it was bound by the invisible crystal energy binding field. The surface of the white matter seems to emit some kind of dim white light. This light is very weak. Even if the information perspective is turned on, it is possible to ignore this weak parameter change. However, the next moment after this dim white light appears, The suspended white matter broke through the encapsulation of the crystal energy binding field. The white matter floated up and directly touched the first layer of crystal energy shield above the table.

"...So what just happened?" Victorville stared blankly as this strange white ball, which looked a bit like ball lightning, hit the crystal energy shield. "The crystal energy binding field shouldn't be that fragile, right?"

"The crystal energy field itself should not be so fragile, but..." Zhai Cahir's brows tightened obviously, "Your Majesty, the sensor is still online... You should be able to feel that under the influence of this layer of crystal energy shield, Within the seal, there are a lot of very messy information fluctuations..."

"...Indeed." Victorville looked at the test area intently and discovered this problem: in the area illuminated by the "derivative radiation" of white matter, the high-level information that should originally operate according to certain rules seemed to Being directly dismantled, it is as if the law of existence of the crystal energy itself has been "extracted". Just like a piece of metal, all the physical attributes that can maintain its stable existence are taken away. In the end, all that may be left is It is a strange substance that is not even a quark combination.

…

While everyone was discussing the strange properties of this white matter, the white matter that came into contact with the crystal energy shield seemed to spontaneously undergo some kind of change. Its surface began to release that dim white light. After being disturbed by this white light, After that, the energy consumption of the crystal energy shield began to rise sharply, as if the shield itself was being "swallowed" continuously, and the white matter light group itself was also slowly shrinking, but it was obvious - between the two The changes are not in predetermined proportion.

"Still within the redundancy arrangement, Your Majesty, there is information turbulence inside the crystal energy shield, and the intensity is... very strange."

"What should I say?" Vidoville raised his head and asked.

"If the crystal energy is directly cooled and decayed into low-level stable information, due to the huge uncertainty of the high-level information will unfold in this process, there will actually be a very large "expansion" process, and this is also the low-level information. Information still has uncertain results. If there is a substance that does not change at all with the void as the reference system, the decay of crystal energy into this substance will reach an infinite level of change, but the turbulent flow of information here... The level is obviously lower than that of crystal energy, but the "quantity" in the mathematical rate calculation method is the same as that of crystal energy. This is equivalent to the decay of crystal energy, but there is no uncertainty expansion, just like the crystal energy itself. It’s like the original rules have disappeared.”

"What's the conclusion?"

"Your Majesty, we need to study the specific structure of the mutated space channel before we can give a more precise answer, but according to my guess..." Zhai Cahir thought for a moment: "This kind of white matter It may have some unique attributes of its own...and that is to dismantle the order and laws of coexistence."
