Star Empire

Under Vidoville's precise control, pale rivers of white gold and shadowy purples spread out from the outer layers of the long walled structure on the other side of the world.

In the next shortest moment, two completely different but incompatible light and shadows, which had been mixed to the point of being almost indistinguishable, exploded and shattered. The dark and sticky enemy control field was dug out with what could be called a shocking crack. Broken crystals were scattered into the darkness, but their effect did not end -

The blurry purple and golden light streams that seemed to vaguely outline the connection of the constellations of the entire world suddenly poured into the newly dug rift valley, and those broken cracking crystals immediately changed their appearance and became the Zero Sky Zone Fleet and the Empire. An extension of the Information Star Network, highly modulated crystal energy and arcane information flows jump at a terrifyingly high frequency in these huge numbers of new nodes.

"With such high protection capabilities and comprehensive protection, there seems to be no visible loopholes." In sleepiness, the power of Vidoville's driving force shrouded itself and the entire surrounding fortress world, reversed by the performance of "Solar Eclipse" The front-end attack launched maps the fragmentation effect and dispels it, but this can only maintain a relatively quiet "range" as much as possible - the strength of the two warring parties is enough to shake each other's truth. On this basis, even at such a high level, The actual application equipment has to return to the category of "wrestling".

"Crystal energy firepower and even white matter rays can only blow through the core of the enemy's formation at best, and more information flows can only blow through the opponent's strong reality stable field. This war will last for a long time."

The newly excavated rift valley is being continuously polished and eroded by invisible forces and is losing its edges and even structure. While re-adjusting the power assigned by the Will Hub, Vidoville also begins the process of calculating trends under new circumstances.

Now it seems that it can be called black technology. The structure is biased towards the black box. The assignment master brain and iteration - the terrifying output and calculation processing power of the information endless jump equation power source, countless scanning arrays derived from the technical extreme deduction module, and The meticulous and all-pervasive detection and scanning ripples of the information matching array reverberated like a bell. Everywhere in the gray screen and sticky enemy position-wide protective measures, the most obscure and inconspicuous loopholes had already been discovered. was excavated and rapidly torn and expanded.

Soon, the blazing purple/white gold light from the Arcane Throne and the Void Matrix completely tore through these dark obstacles, and once again lit up the world structure that was being torn and gradually shattered.

…

Under the extremely fierce competition and firepower bombardment between the two sides, the world began to lose control. The virtual world line, which had been suppressed by the information star network and the cosmic benchmark anchor to the point of almost non-existence, began to lose its weak support from the structure of reality. As you climb up to the bottom, bizarre phantoms appear out of thin air and then completely disappear before interacting with the real world.

The end of the star formation that requires phased control to take effect, and the sacred will that can continuously put the controller's thoughts into the entire battlefield. The two empires currently have the highest rank, the most unstoppable effective weight, and the widest range of effects. Powerful weapons join the battlefield that was once almost unimaginable.

However, soon, their activation and re-modulation process again and again merged into the endless exchanges of fire between the super fleets that almost completely occupied the two poles of the world, the Doomsday-Creation of the decisive battle flagship, and the dismantling ray of the New Moon. The white matter dismantling and projection system equipped by the Imperial Fleet's Star-Awakening Fortress and the Holy Inquisition's "Forbidden Curse of Reincarnation" have become the constant flashes in this battlefield, constantly tearing the world apart, and the smallest and darkest things have been destroyed. Unreasonable and imperfect micro-distortions tear, expand, suppress and finally amplify and solidify, just another type of regular activity in the process of pushing the world into the abyss of destruction.

Perhaps they also shined when they first appeared, but within perhaps hundreds or perhaps longer time units, a swarm attack can completely overturn the battlefield in just a few minutes or less. The pulse will be repeated on this battlefield tens of millions of times or more.

As long as it is controllable, replicable, and has actual use value, then this new weapon or information manipulation method must have a usage mode that can adapt to the entire battlefield environment and progress requirements, and this will inevitably lead to their emergence The number of times is quite huge - when it is piled up and filled in tens of millions, even billions and other orders of magnitude, no matter how rare and special it is, in the end it can only be "disappeared into light and shadow".

==============

Throughout the empire's territory, there may be thousands or even tens of thousands of heavily armored fortress worlds near the edge of the territory. The battlefield is being slowly torn apart by forces from both sides that are almost impossible to understand by any secular means. and gradually push towards destruction.

Since the entire super-large-scale melee, which lasted for thousands of years of information evolution, received a warning from the empire's main flagship at the beginning, every heavy fortress world and its fleets had already made all preparations as much as possible——

When the corrupted ghost of Σ occupies the entire world, by distinguishing the structural weight of several layers of information and existence in the entire world, we can directly delineate the "inside" and "outside" of the entire world compared to the outer layer of the void, a transcendent barrier. In this way, no matter how the Σ fleet tries to jump into this world, at least for now, they will only fall into the "outer layer":

That is, the structural system layer and practical application layer - they are indispensable structures in the world. At the same time, their birth and operation are closely related to the underlying protocol layer and mapping management layer as the first and second levels, that is, they have considerable Strong derivative relationship - this relationship is relatively one-way, that is to say, changes in the basic mapping and structure of the first- and second-level worlds can directly affect or even cover the derived third- and fourth-level worlds, but this process is almost It is impossible to work the other way around before using powerful destructive means.

In this way, the imperial defenders will truly have the right time and place when facing the invading Σ fleet - with the cosmic benchmark stable anchor, the "moving territory" fleet and the information star network composed of billions of crystal energy stars. Under the conditions of success and stability, the difficulty of distorting the world itself through external forces will be increased to an unimaginable level.

At the same time, this also ensures to a certain extent the weight of the "defensive" behavior of the imperial fleet and the safety of various heavy industrial facilities in each world - it is impossible to defend every heavily equipped fortress star. , but it is a joint shipyard capable of mass-producing conventional warships of various types; a void forge capable of forging various general concepts and strong law-level creations; and a super-large information-entity transformation mother machine that can regulate the existence of entities with higher information concentration. And the cosmic benchmark anchor, which symbolizes the empire's control over the world, can be tightly and thoroughly protected.

It was completely different from the war in which the empire was almost destroyed. At that time, the empire only roughly relied on a huge fleet to unite as a defense line - if it were not for the cosmic benchmark anchor and the fleet itself at that time, which used extraordinary information. , the understanding of defense is based on blocking the flow of information, so maybe at that time, just the splash damage of space rank information that was vaguely activated by Σ was completely possible from some empires that were not even aware of it. The direction directly defeated the imperial defense line.

But even if these conditions give the imperial fleet as the defender a certain advantage, they cannot bring the final victory to the empire on their own - even if they rely on various technologies and information models that have been withdrawn from the technical extreme deduction module, the imperial fleet cannot It can only be said that it has improved itself to a level where it is capable of a head-on confrontation with a fleet of the same specifications as Σ, but it is far from a level where victory is guaranteed.

What's more, the actual design of most of the ships in the imperial fleet, in the final analysis...

Either it only refers to part of the experience gained in the previous battles, or it only refers roughly to the design structure of the main flagship or the reflection projected by the end of the star array - these can be said to be piled up from a mess of fragmentary information. The finished products may appear to be powerful and versatile, but in fact, they are far from "fully mature", let alone whether the overall void combat system they form with each other is complete.

What he is facing is the undead-like fleet of Σ that is continuously pouring out from countless cracks in the void. Even if they have been corrupted, more than 99% of their original structure may have been wiped out, but what is left of them Some of their functions are still more powerful and coordinated than the Imperial Fleet, and the system they can form even if they rely on their remaining instincts will probably be far more mature and complete than the Imperial Fleet.

In an unmeasurable time, the Dark Star Fortress provides strong reality stabilization field and pointing field; the Crescent Dismantling Ray with its own power and rank is quite high; the source will correction of the solar eclipse and countless numbers of themselves are provided as lower iterations. Network nodes, large-scale grassroots combat unit groups with uninterrupted output sources of various conventional direct information firepower and information annihilation missiles are gradually gaining the upper hand.

…

In the melee, Zhai Cahir's eyes did not show a clear light.

Perhaps thousands of years have passed, and during these thousands of years, the refueling activities of both sides have continued, but if the most important thing is that there is not enough external assistance to trigger qualitative changes...

The possibility of victory is completely lost in his own hands, and in the hands of countless colleagues in the empire who are in a similar situation to himself.

The culprit is the flagship unit [Eclipse] in the Σ fleet.

The unknown source of will correction makes it difficult for the Imperial Fleet to establish an effective mapping of this type of unit, and the related effects will also be simultaneously reflected on the joint shield and even some existential deflection beacons, thus losing effectiveness. The imperial firepower mapped by existence lock can only explode time and time again in vain on the outer edge of the range that has a very low impact on the enemy's overall position.

On the contrary, the information concentration is higher, the effective mechanism is more crude and powerful, and the overall density is higher. The terrifying firepower rained down by the enemy can almost fully act on the various defensive methods of the imperial fleet.

"...Damn it, the effective mechanism of the solar eclipse...could it be said that it has really reached the level of "truth" mentioned by His Majesty Vidoville? They have regarded themselves as the real existence that can be recognized anywhere in the void, and This cannot be achieved without the help of any other events..."

Faced with dozens of enemy warships that could completely suppress the will of thousands of Star Inquisition ships to fight with the entire empire's territory fleet by relying only on their own strength, Zhai Cahir took the trouble to stop one after another with a solemn expression countless times. Check it and screen for possible loopholes and vulnerabilities. However, the more he checked, the less he believed in his own will——

The more detailed the observation results, the more it shows that the solar eclipse is powerful, unbreakable, untouchable and maybe even indestructible - but this is impossible, except for the immortal wall of Vidoville, even if it is a pan-conceptual structure creation and In the Dark Star Fortress, he could more or less find possible vulnerabilities and loopholes - but from the actual performance, the overall protection of the Solar Eclipse may not be as strong as the Dark Star Fortress.

Then there is not much range left in the possible explanations: I am afraid that in the process of mapping and interacting with the eclipse and the entire Σ fleet, some results are no longer reliable.

"His Majesty Zhai Kahir, the joint will of the 3-4 and 3-779 "Moving Territory" fleet commanders and others, reports to you on behalf of the regional fleet intelligence summary:"

"The firepower of the Σ fleet is getting stronger and stronger, and they are also mixed with the dangerous death tide aura. Several dangerous guiding openings have been completely blown up and abandoned, but the death tide pollution is spreading in the fleet in different ways. "

"In an environment where death tide pollution and too frequent existential deflections are constantly fragmenting, reorganizing and corroding, the information structure of some ships is becoming virtualized. We must stop using some existential deflection beacons and temporarily isolate them from the Internet. The impact of iteration, otherwise we will suffer irreversible casualties..."

"That's enough." Zhai Cahir calmly stopped the conscious report, "After measuring the current weight, all fleets will only allow the replacement of combatants who meet the worst predictions. Network iteration is related to every node, and no individual is allowed to leave without authorization. , if it cannot be saved, personnel and warships will carry out annexation activities nearby."

"Your Majesty Zhai Cahir, this is..."

"We must ensure that the hope of possible foreign aid in the hinterland of the empire is not cut off - if we fail to retreat, the enemy's strength and advantage will increase exponentially." Zhai Cahir responded calmly, "...and, at least for now, Even if those people die...their death has value, a process, and a warmer destination..."

"……clear!"

In Zhai Cahir's consciousness, representing the entire empire's network of consciousness including himself, the two convex crests quickly calmed down.

The invisible force is like a breeze. While blowing through this invisible giant sea, it turns the broken sparkling waves into majestic ocean tides, rolling one wave after another towards the rugged and broken coast. But at this time, the coast has already Completely red-hot by the lava.

The waves hit it and then evaporated.

But the new wave never stops moving.

In this endless action that can be said to last for thousands of years, not even the tiniest drop of water opposes the wave.

However, they did not notice, and it was impossible for them to notice, how some things would happen invisibly and insubstantially sometimes.

On the bright side, the dangerous core in the distance erupted with incalculable information clutter, which showed that even though both sides were trying their best to suppress the environment to avoid void intrusion hindering the battle, everything there was still intense enough to completely melt reality.

What is the past, and why should reality be related to the past?

If we say that everything in reality is the final current shape that is constantly piled up and modified based on the accumulated experience in the past, and everything in reality has traces somewhere in the distant past, then maybe it will be like this question

What if all memories are deleted or replaced?

What if all reality that seems to be built up from the lessons learned in "history" has actually been reshaped or changed?

If all memories have formed a new logical structure on their own, there are no traces of all the people and things in the past in the memory, and now, all of their activities and everything in the world they are in are also related to those people and things. Things have nothing to do with them; they have no impact on the present.

So, did they ever exist?

With limited understanding and limited ideas, practical applications will naturally be limited.

So, does truth outside of knowledge exist?

Wouldn’t truth beyond cognition affect reality in ways that have never been imagined and that seem almost impossible...
