Star Empire

Faced with an unprecedentedly powerful disaster and the fact that it might really be completely obliterated by the continent that emerged from the void, it calmed down.

Battle formation - this concept has been used all the time. There have been many kinds of fleet structures, and each structure has similarities and differences.

They will be used in a variety of environments to face different tasks and goals. The battle formation has developed for a long time, has many types, and has experienced glory, setbacks and troughs...

Countless battleship clusters that had previously been scattered under his panic control woke up from silence and stagnation.

They began to try to reorganize the overall structure of themselves and the compatriots around them according to certain "patterns" used by the wisdom and souls of the past.

Mapping connections began to appear, and the chaotic and layered battleship groups began to reorganize themselves according to the once determined information structure.

These contents are still fragmented, and many fragments cannot be put back together immediately even if they can be recovered.

However, as battleships that have been in the void and have crossed the invisible chasm and the barrier between worlds countless times, they, as well as the evolutionary matrix itself, have already solved many related problems that once required the use of mathematics for tens of billions of years. The complex actions and "functions" of the rate host and logic core are integrated into the instinct.

Just like those weird metaphysical beings, even if they are not attached to the world of order, they can still live in an environment of near nothingness by instinct.

The matrix begins to appear and expand. It is like a fractal that can be added or deleted at will. If necessary, they can be expanded infinitely.

Many matrices failed to be assembled. All kinds of powerful firepower from the mainland swept across the "celestial sphere" of the void again and again, erasing the large and small order groups scattered throughout it along with all the traces they left.

Mixed among the chaotic light and shadow, the twisted and trembling laws and space-time structure, and the indescribable chaos and fusion, there are countless attack types and attack densities, and the scale above the central zenith of the continent is becoming more and more terrifying. "Star" together, caused extremely tragic casualties to the empire's fleet that once surrounded the last "missing place" in the void.

A vast but fragmented collection of information broadcast hotspots are trying to piece together one another, trying to form strong and towering walls.

As the scope and intensity of the order field projected by the continent further increased, many originally independent bubbles began to be involved in the dark red space, and were involved in the core of the dispute.

It's just that now, the order control authority that is up for grabs is not just the laws and order constants, but probably...everything, everything that can be described.

In the center of the continent, at the top of the towering tower, floating rings hold up red stars, together with the decisive battle flagship team.

Doomsday-Creation swept through the outer sky of the continent again and again, and the torrent of chaotic information tore apart the fragile defenses that had not yet been completed.

There are invisible gaps all over the sky. The missing memories and stories deny many existences in reality. They have lost their history and the foundation of their existence. Many existences related to them may be friendly forces or may have acted together. As the fighting group passed by, everything was evaporated in the void.

Doomsday-Creation tears apart the narrative structure again and again, erasing those units that have not yet awakened forever.

Under the giant tower, the light and shadow caused by the splitting of the timeline in different divisions of the entire continent became more and more intense. They were even connected to each other, crossing the array of existential annihilation missiles and throwing the reality floating in the farther sky into nothingness. In the darkness where no rules can be described.

As the ley lines strengthen, more equipment seems to be activated - the enhanced reality stabilization field, the source of activation of the order-correcting wide-area fusion field, and more weapons are being rapidly charged...

After calming down, the evolutionary matrices that were briefly liberated from the oppressive and toxic environment finally fully awakened. They reorganized the fleet according to the ancient structure and reorganized everything.

Multiple layers of defense were opened, combined shields were activated, and the enhanced reality stabilization field and probabilistic collapse field finally withstood the environment that was constantly pressing against them. Golden-red light pillars rose from the matrix, and almost instantly, they formed "giant sources" of information one after another.

The paths of countless attacks were deflected, and they smashed into the endlessly extending golden light pillar and burned out the stable light in the existential blessing beacon.

Many closed rings were broken by external forces, shaped like an inverted pyramid, and the huge fortresses entwined with rings and corridors were hit and then crashed. Countless of them lost stability in the definition of the continent's self-order.

They faced the dark hollow outlined by the attack and the web weaved by the attack path, turning into balls of fire and smashing into the endless earth shining with blood-red light, like a meteor shower performed by stars.

Their sacrifices would not be in vain, they were destroyed, but a powerful fleet matrix was finally gradually established.

The once chaotic fleet has finally completed its positioning and gained a firm foothold. They finally have the possibility to compete with the space and order that are all opposing their existence and trying to engulf them, and they finally have the possibility to fight back. Foundation.

The speed of destruction began to slow down. Even the Doomsday-Creation under the network iteration seemed unable to erode through the various protective systems supported by such a huge fleet in a short time.

And the conceptual power and symbolic meaning formed by the directional actions of countless fleets, countless evolutionary matrices, and countless individuals that seemed to be "awakening" instantly became extremely powerful.

These may be nihilistic things, but they are also information, and they are also parts that can interact with everything. In this battlefield, they are equally important and their influence is equally powerful!

The fragmented defense lines began to slowly close up. Between the fleets, meaningful gaps were widened and meaningless gaps were narrowed and filled. Many of the holes and holes in the edges of the story are completed and connected to each other.

The existence of diffuse instability that had been precarious for tens of billions of years was temporarily suppressed.

Numerous measures were taken to protect the gradually improving hull structure, and the huge changes brought about, at the same time, the firepower from the side of Σ finally began to be deflected, attracted and neutralized, many of which even directly bypassed the closing ships. The protective structure exploded meaninglessly in the void.

Among the Σ fleet surrounding the "Zenith", there are a variety of functional flagships, and their modes of action are also different. The attack mode or influence mode of many flagships has not yet been explored.

The best opportunity to discover them coincides with the destruction that brought the empire closest to total collapse.

Even if you want to analyze what happened to you, you may not have more opportunities and abilities...

To this day, they still contain considerable secrets, and the Empire still has no way to fully analyze them and respond to every possibility...

In other words, various realistic factors interfered with the idealized results, and the empire had missed every opportunity to analyze them.

But what was different from before, or what was the same as the beginning, was that the empire began to gain advantages in size and numbers.

I am afraid that only a small part of the Σ team came here, and at this moment, the portals covering the zenith seemed to have quietly stopped the operation of continuing to deliver.

Tens of billions of years ago, a huge death wave erupted from a core place in the Σ theory and destroyed countless Σ worlds and units. In the subsequent many billions of years, the Imperial Fleet had countless battles with Σ fleets and fortresses of all sizes. There were small stories that were not worth mentioning in the sky survey radar, and there were also head-to-head forcible attacks.

On one side, there are Σ ghosts that have a huge amount but have experienced countless tragic war reductions and natural disasters. On the other side, they have abandoned all lower limits and all bottom lines, and are frantically iterating on their own life primitives regardless of the cost. new race.

Now, the new race finally has an absolutely huge advantage here.

It is precisely this huge advantage in scale and numbers that allows the Imperial Fleet to forcibly turn from chaos to temporary calm even under the enemy's gunfire, and to withstand the ideological holes left by countless compatriots who are constantly being "erased" And the story void reorganizes its own order structure without directly destroying it.

Speaking of which... maybe whoever feels this matter will feel that it may be a bit strange, or that the ideals that originally corresponded to some ancient goals have now projected some kind of tangible "entity" in reality...

A considerable number of these battleships are suffering the most direct impact from that dark continent.

At every moment, in every possible future, and in the depths of every remembered past, the various warships and the emergent lives and conceptual lives that depend on the fleet for survival have been encountering various disturbances. And attack - the dark red solid space is filled with Σ's tactical fields, and they are pervasive.

Many battleships and beings failed to withstand these changes and died.

The rest worked hard, maybe even relying on luck to barely open the protection system, and finally had the foundation to persist and compete——

In terms of details, this battlefield is filled with unprecedented high-level law collisions, conceptual distortions, and power struggles. The scale and degree are unprecedented and unheard of.

However, these countless competitions and collisions driven by countless rational/irrational information functions continue to expand and "ascend" as their total volume continues to expand, but at the same time they finally show peace at the macro level... …

Just like the immune system, the life to which the immune system belongs is a super-individual composed of countless small units. This super-individual may not get sick often, but every moment, there are countless things inside his body. The various immune cells and immune factors are designed to respond. Their collision, interaction and killing are probably the same as everything happening here...

Fight back – you must fight back.

Fleets that have formed a matrix can follow the long-standing mature networking system and enhancement system. These complete matrices will greatly improve the overall combat effectiveness. These mature tactical applications can make everything exert an effect of one plus one far greater than two.

However, they have missed too much.

Although these fleet matrices are much more powerful than they were in the fragmented period, even now, they are still standing and struggling desperately over the mainland.

They are "still" in the sky above the continent. They are fighting against the invisible, they are fighting against themselves, but no matter what, their actions seem to be completely frozen.

The mainland, together with the fleets scattered on the zenith of the mainland and the decisive battle flagship fleet surrounding the central tower, has quite a lot of protection systems that operate in different modes but can co-varie.

Among them, the three major map-separated systems that the empire has dealt with, but has never been able to directly break through on its own, are even more difficult to deal with.

Now, the three major protective layers may have been in a pre-activation state long ago and are fully activated during the fleet's reorganization from chaos.

It is almost impossible to have any hostility or attack intention towards this continent and all targets around the continent that are included in the protection scope; all attacks will be stripped of their directional targets and everything that may cause "changes" to the body. , furthermore, the parts that may cause harm will lose their souls along the way, either being directly deleted and disappearing, or turning into clusters of loose, aimless and difficult-to-effective information clusters that are directly deflected, or even It may directly "cross" the huge and obvious target like a phantom.

It is almost impossible to think of the continent as actually existing and porous, as all its underlying representations and everyone's memories of it would be restrained and deflected.

Theoretically, if we can reach the previous level of understanding based on application, this may be an unsolvable defense system.

Theoretically, the total amount of defensive power it contains may be unimaginably high; theoretically, hundreds of millions of years of accumulation are enough for powerful civilizations to spend unimaginable time polishing the creations and creations that they deem necessary to make changes. technology.

Theoretically, they should be perfect—at least for the time being, perfect within the realm of reason and cognizable order.

But perfection can never have an absolute, because there can never be an absolutely stable isolation line between void and order, and there will never be a series of what will happen when the void collapses into order, or in the process of emergence. Absolute value.

This realm of chaos is the loophole where we can try to fight. If one day we can achieve absolute mastery, and if civilization can control the void and activate true infinity and nothingness to achieve its goals, then these dim light films may not themselves It's not solid, but it's obvious that this won't happen now...

It is obvious that no matter what kind of development the empire has carried out, what height it has reached now, and what kind of accumulation it has, they are still too weak compared to the enemies they have to face.

The death tide pollution that once swallowed Σ head-on may be able to close all the gaps, but it is obvious that the empire already has some advantages, but these advantages are not enough to help the empire directly reverse the situation of the war.

Besides its advantages, almost all the empire has disadvantages...

The dark red mist continues to spread, covering one frequency after another. They create huge order information structures in the void that are completely connected one after another.

The imperial fleet is like an abstract starry sky that is almost stationary, with a few dim meteors occasionally appearing.

They were swallowed up by the dark red mist, the wide-area fusion field of order correction and the strong reality stabilization field, and the order field that was constantly spreading and every point in it was fighting against itself.

Countless conflicts will continue to crush the stars that barely maintain their brightness, forcing them to use their own strength to fight against their own ideas.

What followed was neat erasure and a brilliant chain explosion.

As a member of the system, the probability of surviving independently for a long time without relying on the overall environment and the entire system is extremely slim, and the difficulty is beyond imagination.

They extend together to form the grand narrative structure of reality, and the damage caused by the holes dug out by external forces will not only affect the missing part itself.

In fact, this is not painful. What do things outside the body do to me?

However, there is no absolute in the true sense of the word. In other words, the emergence of the word absolute will cause some logic to collapse.

Faintly, a broken line that once jumped in the void quietly connected every dense and bright star cluster.

Purple light flashed in the dark red space from time to time, and some positive force that had not appeared for a long time encouraged the struggling fleet.

Perhaps even with the support from the fleet, Star Array's End cannot directly tear apart the layers of continental defense systems alone, but it can interfere with some blocking and suppression that are more intuitively futile and unpredictable.

The imperial fleet began to slowly counterattack, but all they could do was actually splash large and small ripples out of thin air - it seems that unlike the mirrored split shield formed by the decisive battle flagship fleet and the immortal wall, this layer of the continent itself Layer protection seems to be everywhere, or at least, it can "invisibly take effect" in a considerable range?

Support - All territory here, all weapons and firepower should support.

The flames of war on the front line have become indistinguishable. On the surface, the most conspicuous torrent of information is like a sharp blade, carving countless rifts in the visible and invisible chaotic order, creating countless peaks and valleys.

The stars are falling all the time, and beyond that, various invasions and rebellions cause the trends between the information to change every moment, so that they seem to "melt" together.

support.

There are many ultra-long-range firepower projection platforms in the territory - the Praise of Holy Sound, the World Branch Zenith Seat, the World Vein Overview Seat, as well as many ultra-long-range protection systems with independent world gates inside the world.

There are many ships fighting on the front line, and they themselves can serve as beacons, locked and targeted, and the same can be said for many phenomena.

Although the void itself is an excellent barrier against cross-world attacks, if there is a powerful enough beacon at the target location that is continuously effective... then this barrier itself will no longer be effective.

What's more, if you want to lock a target in the void, there are too many paths, far more than precise positioning.

All the world management facilities in the first quadrant began to increase their output, trying hard to suppress the stars and space that began to tremble in the world, and trying to suppress the fluctuations at the edge of the world barrier, just like bones trying desperately to resist spasming muscles.

The blazing double conjugate strikes of imaginary numbers are like spears. They span the void, and together with the torrent of crystal energy released from the ultra-long-distance information projection system of the world's branch Zenith, they merge into the increasingly mixed vortex of variables. among.

…

The figure of the Arcane Throne swept across, and all the units illuminated by the purple light seemed to become calm and stable.

But why? Strictly speaking, they have no actual soul.

What are they essentially? Why?

…

The intensity of the firefight continues to increase.

Collisions and interactions created by external information flows slowly affect the continent itself.

The battle itself is fierce and complex. Even at this moment, the impact of a lot of confusion and blindness, as well as the resentment itself, has not faded away. However, the amount of information that can be multiplied every moment is still huge, and the activity logs of every moment are still there. It is still growing rapidly.

From a macro perspective, the details may be complex and changeable, but they tend to be harmonious and consistent in terms of overall rules, just like immunity.

Some hidden uneasiness and sense of crisis surfaced again. There's something strange about their appearance:

Although I don’t understand everything in front of me, a lot of necessary will and thought can always change something, can always save some losses in the face of huge crises, and make up for some impacts that have not been considered, although these compensations are not necessarily Huge trends and realistic trends can always be saved.

In the first quadrant, the pressure from the emergence of countless world management facilities began to increase further, but not only the worlds, but also the "alarms" released by the management facilities themselves began to emit various distortions and distortions.

The scorching blood flows across the void, and they divide into countless branches, which point to the zenith of countless branches of the world.

When the core of the probability lightning chain is destroyed with one blow, the entire branches of the world will be annihilated, which will release a huge torrent of information.

Countless worlds will be directly torn apart by the huge information deviation, and their aftermath will turn into boiling noise in the void. This is no problem.

The information primitives that make up the world seem to be resisting the control of management facilities with increasing intensity.

Between them, it was like mutinous cells rebelling against the muscles and bones they made up of themselves. Everything seemed to be changing, becoming bizarre and unmeasurable.

Deep in the continent, inside the huge earth veins that are spread across all facilities and run like a network of blood vessels, energy is surging. They are manufactured and transported to every node in need. There seems to be nothing wrong with this...

But there's a problem - this dark continent is endless, it has no tangible end both from an informational perspective and from a practical representational level.

Even... it seems to be as absurd as freezing all the matter in the universe and using it to build a fortress in the void. It is so absurd that it should not, no, is impossible to establish.

Its endlessly powerful self-order definition is completely distorting the rules of all reality, which may even make the "other side" of the continent that should exist completely invisible.

However, a continent as vast as the vast world itself is using the same weapons as the decisive battle flagship? It can no longer be said that there is a huge difference between them. It can be said that there is no comparison at all!

Perhaps, some of the attributes of the World Branch Zenith will explain the exaggerated size of the Σ Dark Dome and the continent itself.

In the face of countless worlds, the properties of space expansion and reference system conversion are too dangerous and are always difficult to accommodate all changes. Therefore, when the problem is magnified and expanded to the context of the world, these giant facilities themselves cannot carry any space. Expansion module, this may be the reason why the decisive battle flagship can exist in a "regular" size——

The decisive battle flagships do not need to manage the world. They are mobile capitals and mobile quadrant continents, so they can install space expansion structures on themselves without any scruples.

However, for these management facilities, as for whether space expansion modules can be installed, it seems more like a matter of principle than a matter of technical brilliance.

So... what if the weapon of the decisive battle flagship actually requires such a huge physical structure to be loaded? There may be some problems with this. If so, then their "performance" does not correspond - why do weapons larger than the world appear in the focus of the story that can only scan the galaxy, but do not directly scorch the story itself?

Are they incapable of doing it? But that's impossible, otherwise what would be happening now? But in that case, what on earth were they going to do at that time? Is one of the countless test subjects worthy of the attention of an infinitely powerful civilization?

Why does this division occur?

Why does such a contradiction occur?

What caused all of this to turn out the way it does now? Were they ever really kind? Or are those memories and records themselves false, and the true past cannot be verified?

Decisive battle flagships... They shouldn't and need to use such a huge interior to carry such weapons... This is so unnecessary, so unnecessary...

……etc.

If it is not to carry the more powerful Doomsday-Creation...then what on earth is the huge body of the continent meant to carry?

Soon, something in the iron-like artificial reality filled with the light of the setting sun responded to these questions.

Near the tower body of the mainland giant tower, nine bright red incorporeal rings had quietly lit up at some point.

At the base of the tower, the brightness of the bottom ring was so high that it began to "whiten". Then, it suddenly shrank, shrinking into a stream of light that tightly wrapped around the tower. Then, it followed the tower's length. The surface suddenly rises, and it cuts across the black tower body with hard edges and corners...

Soon, a red ring appeared on the top of the tower - it was higher than the "star" condensed by the continent's projected doomsday-creation.

An endlessly extending blood-red plane spreads out. Its surface is flooded with countless fluctuations and ripples. Many fluctuation signals are spread across it. The density and frequency of creation and annihilation are extremely high...

It envelopes the continent, the fleet and many weapons, but... it is very low, "below" all physical structures. It envelopes the zenith, but it is completely and absolutely lower than everything... It's underneath the earth.

But that’s a world! !
