Star Empire

Inside the loophole of the Void Matrix, in the jumping white-gold sea of ​​order, there are snapshots of information about almost all of the current fleets and warriors of the Star Empire.

It is even more like a virtual mapping than a snapshot, a reflection of the empire's reality in the void matrix. The mapping technology of this reflection is derived from the connection between the heart of the world and the macroscopic world.

But there are some changes in this process. For example, there is only one unit of actual existence between the entity and the mirror. This ensures that even if the entity disappears, its existence will be transmitted back to the world line tree through virtual mapping. In the mirror image, and after the mirror image is extracted and reset as a whole, the actual existence will be transferred back to the actual individual. Therefore, the existence of this mapping can be said to be absolutely reliable.

At least for now, it seems that unless the body dies completely enough to destroy the existence attributes, the void matrix also completely falls; or the interference is too strong, so strong that the truth will be questioned or even overturned. Otherwise, the individual could be considered immortal.

From the fragments extracted from the broken database, Vidoville probably knew that the entire old Σ civilization and countless worlds might even be preserved in this way to some extent within the decisive battle flagship of Σ. mirror. However, considering the current actual level of the Star Empire, Vidoville is not prepared to keep such a mirror connection for too long:

The empire's system currently does not fully grasp all the information formulas and information mapping structures in this technology. Equipment that cannot be parsed by itself will create dependence even if it is harmless, which is not conducive to the future development of the empire.

And out of long-term considerations for the entire civilization, even if the star civilization is currently fighting for the living space of civilization in the void, when a war actually breaks out, who doesn't want to take another chance to fight against the old Σ What about the revenge of those corrupt ghosts of civilization?

If this layer of mapping exists forever and is always strong, perhaps everyone can maintain their original intentions stably at the beginning, but their souls and thoughts will change.

A group of immortal avengers are carrying out almost non-stop revenge missions. In this process, regardless of victory or defeat, thoughts will continue to agitate throughout the network, and the results that can be catalyzed are naturally imaginable.

After all, the consequences of resource paranoia and their impact on the Empire seem to have been summarized just yesterday.

…

The future has become blurry, and even the most powerful information matcher can no longer pry into the future destiny of the star civilization. Even Vidoville himself cannot guarantee that he can be reliable forever. The overall information structure of his soul has been partially destroyed. Apart from the enhancement, the main personality has not undergone any changes or been disturbed after being integrated into the Arcane Throne and the Void Matrix.

And even after such a high degree of strengthening, the mind is still in the exploratory period of power and self-thinking and perspective like the majority of people. Victorville naturally understands - everything is still unfamiliar now, even if he has started Gradually become familiar with these two independent and heterogeneous bodies.

But due to imperfect cognition, he still takes the greatest degree of caution in all this. But what happens after he is completely familiar with it? I am afraid that one day, even I will be addicted to the power of the super battleship and cannot extricate myself. Vidoville dare not say when this day will come, but for now, his own strength and ideas should be able to delay the arrival of this day. .

In this formation, each fleet contains hundreds of thousands of large and small warships, and in each fleet, the distance between the warships is calculated in light seconds. Under the same specifications, conventional energy-driven The output power of a battleship is much lower than that of a battleship directly driven by the fluctuations of Taichu information, because conventional, various types of energy that are already in the information solidified state, no matter how high the utilization efficiency is, the solidified structure of the energy itself determines their own limitations.

Residues will always exist, such as heat and entropy, but as long as the level of utilization is high enough, crystal energy and arcana will not have such problems - unlike naturally occurring high-level information, being in a battleship In order to achieve precise control, the crystal energy and arcana in it have been controlled and assigned at the moment they are born from the space channel reactor. Once the total control fails, the information beyond the assigned range will immediately stop operating and decay or even dissipate.

Therefore, even if a battleship is destroyed or even explodes, the light clusters and the scope of their impact will not be extremely large. Generally speaking, a difference of a few light minutes in the projected area is enough to completely offset the impact of the battleship explosion.

In the face of cosmic-level distance units, even the huge Void Matrix is ​​just an extreme, insignificant black boat.

It's just that the white light wrapped around the body of this small boat is extremely difficult to ignore. On the side of the Imperial Fleet, the flow of time and space is a bit strange. They seem to have received extremely strong gravity out of thin air, slowly collapsing with the Void Matrix as the base point. Go down, but this weird scene is fleeting.

Time and space rebounded instantly, but in this rebounding time and space, the white light stream swept across the battlefield carrying a large amount of rule information. Where all the wreckage originally existed, the tarnished broken purple crystal and the torn pale The golden structural panels disappeared in an instant, and were replaced by battleships that were as intact as ever, as if they had not experienced war. But the people and recording equipment in every battleship resurrected in this way save the log files of the past - the loopholes have been recorded and will be blocked in the next moment.

"Recognize, revise, summarize, make up..."

In the battlefield, the torrent of intertwined information is lighting up the space where both sides are located again and again. Even an impact will have multiple levels of retracement until it completely collapses. Even the activated super-dimensional battlefield is still at this level. It was continuously damaged under the pressure of information, and then was continuously repaired and enhanced by the cosmic reference anchor or the range information enhancement equipment carried by the battleship itself, under such a strange field.

The confrontation between the two sides became more and more intense. Before the information was fully activated, there were several huge galaxies floating in the "surface world" of the battlefield here. However, many of those billions of stars had either been completely destroyed in the struggle between the two sides. Destroyed, or incinerated as a disposable spellcasting material for arcane radiation and augmented reality stabilization field expansion when Vidoville launched Star Array's End.

The combined shields of the Star Fleet are constantly being illuminated by annihilation missiles that can completely blow up information representation and black-red jets that have been separated from any known high-level information. The scale reaches tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of kilometers. Ripples, and in the next crystal energy resonant salvo after the energy storage is completed, more explosions and annihilations will be born directly in the light wall. In order to maximize the use of each crystal energy firepower and arcane lightning The biggest effect is that the constraints of the information limit lock are also constantly being reduced, and the consequence of this is that more and more high-energy clouds are entrenched between the black-red galaxy and the gray vortex that seems to stand at the end of the world, stretching across the sky and the earth. group.

Perhaps against normal spaceships of the same specifications, these free crystal energy clouds or arcane glows may not cause too much trouble if they are not actively provoked. However, the problem is that the Σ fleet is already large enough to shake the scene. It was completely corrupted in the huge disaster of the void, and now, these high-level free information representing order is the best source of purifying power for the death tide. Under the illumination of these free high-energy clouds, the turbid Σ shield is constantly peeling off Black smoke and strange crystals and clouds of unknown nature do not greatly affect their combat effectiveness, but they will hinder their reaction ability to a certain extent.

Although a similar scene also affected the Star Fleet, and compared to Σ, the death tide pollution and erosion that the Star Fleet faced was even more dangerous, no one felt afraid, and no one lost their firm belief.

What was projected by the fleet was not only the intensive firepower, but also more frivolous and wild obscenities - it was some kind of real release, some kind of explosion caused by the anger from the bottom of the heart finally being relieved.

…

"This is Vidoville. Broadcast to all fleet commanders and all second-authority level individuals to confirm the data collection status."

"Your Majesty, the first day fleet intelligence collection is completed."

"The district fleet intelligence collection was completed on the second day, and the actual battlefield situation has been recorded."

"Intelligence of the third day area has been completed."

"The fourth day area..."

The invasion of the Σ fleet has stopped, but they themselves do not seem to be passive water and can only wait to dry up. They can draw endless power from the void, and those huge astral battleships even seem to be able to carry out repair operations and Make up homework. Under the constant suppression of firepower, the joint shield of the Star Fleet crumbled several times.

And those large command ships with a higher level than the Celestial Fortress, with elegant figures but lingering aura of corruption, are constantly backing up and iterating those black and red figures in the flow of overall information.

Although it is just a phantom, its impact is quite obvious - in some still unclear modes, those projections can greatly improve the stability and damage resistance of the body, except for the Arcane Throne and the Void. Apart from the direct attack and crushing attack of the Matrix, those black and red figures have never been significantly damaged by the firepower of the Imperial fleet.

"The final system of the star array...the reflection of the battlefield has been established!"

On the side of the weak side, the Star Fleet's firepower has long stopped bombarding, and in the chaotic battlefield space, the long white translucent wall has reappeared, blocking all attacks, even non-over-distance ones. The information annihilation missile has already flown in front of the imperial fleet. Under the influence of the presence, the explosion as if the event horizon is collapsing will be quickly eliminated in an extremely strange way. The existence intensity of the attack map fragmentation may even be higher than that of the powerful force. At the first level of the law, any information with negative impact will be completely ineffective in front of this long wall.

Looking at the Σ fleet that covered the end of the world like a big curtain, Vidoville gently closed his eyes.

"Destroy it."

One sentence, three words, such a slight word, but gave this group of Σ units wandering here the last blunt speech of the funeral. The huge explosions that reflected each other in the reflection of the battlefield at the end of the star array were simultaneously replayed in reality.

The stable point of the vortex and the black information base suddenly collapsed under the invisible fluctuations. It was like a waking dream and was replaced by the stable real world again. A chain explosion started from all the command ships in space. A brilliant star chain was formed.

The space is torn apart, and the strange light patterns formed by annihilation and reorganization, as well as the huge explosions that are constantly cycling through expansion and collapse, combine to form a bizarre reality version of the "Starry Sky". In the interstellar material ocean that turns into mass focus clouds On the other side of the river, black-red light is illuminating everything.

"The cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchor began to use the immortal wall as the boundary, throwing the polluted cosmic space into the void..."

…

"Is your home okay?"

"Everything is fine, Lil, thanks to you."

"Hmm...my name is Lil. Although I am very similar to you, and I have some vague feelings about it, I don't seem to have a name like you."

"Well, now this can be your name, or at least a title."

"It must be extremely difficult to fight against those enemies with bad auras, right? Now that our home is just safe, why don't you go back and take a closer look?"

"Under your protection, most of the homes have been well preserved, and unlike me, who is already difficult to measure, they ultimately need to defeat the enemy on their own to ultimately ensure the safety of their homes, and I am more suitable to summarize them. Finally, provide additional input rather than dominate everything.”

"...Rather than leading them, now I should find ways to support them as much as possible..."

The soul was fluctuating slightly. This time, Victorville vaguely grasped something.

…

In the order field of the Void Blazing Sun, even if the stellar wind activity is fierce, it is still peaceful here. In the various order worlds "not far away", a sense of joy and elation sweeps through the universe under the empire, and In the capital star's sturdy and most confidential conference hall, the debates among many second-authority level individuals have already become lively.

"At present, there is no problem with the direction of our overall fleet protection, but there are still various loopholes in the protection. In this battle, we borrowed His Majesty Vidoville's extraordinary system to make up for the problems caused by these loopholes. For every problem, after this battle, we should search the logs of all ships to find out the source of these vulnerabilities, and also optimize the shield algorithm again as much as possible."

"...To sum up, we currently lack large-scale war vehicles that can provide unified command to conventional fleets, as well as fleet group super flagships with improved comprehensive combat capabilities. At the same time, such warships should have the ability to directly dismantle order coordinates. , otherwise we currently cannot shake the imaginary number void trap."

"Judging from the current situation, the main mapping in the enemy fleet is all concentrated on large battleships, and it seems that the iteration of the shadow self-information group of small battleships also needs to rely on the flagship as the command node. Here I want to make Possible speculation: The combat power and scope of influence of the decisive battle flagship mentioned by His Majesty Vidoville may be wider than we can imagine. It is very likely that they have been providing various lower nodes in the form of the world line tree. The protection may even be achieved directly through anti-mirror..."

"The special properties of the Eye of True Sight should be studied as soon as possible. Its existence relies on the mutation of high-level information rather than existing technology..."

"The fleet should be expanded as soon as possible. Our current fleet size is far from enough for our own defense."

"As for the newer protective field, maybe I, General Eskett and Torres can provide more help, maybe it's a power broadcast source, maybe it's a new high-level energy extraction equation, or an algorithm, these don't matter much. the difference."

"As for arcane magic, our various field action methods are currently too weak. The only attacks that can directly reach the level of war are arcane main cannons and arcane lightning crystal towers. I think there should be a more powerful one. Arcane battleships and more reliable mapping connection methods ensure the realization and enhancement of various spells."
