Chapter 116: The Golden Sphere
Chapter 116: The Golden Sphere
The hyperspace oscillations in the Milky Way are becoming increasingly intense.
More than 600 giant mechanical "Dyson spheres," each containing four to five hundred stars, entered the Milky Way via hyperspace. These "Dyson spheres" began to disperse in the Perseus Arm of the Milky Way. Countless probes spewed out from one "Dyson sphere," and large warships shot out from other giant mechanical "Dyson spheres," heavily deployed in the space surrounding these "Dyson spheres," forming several lines of defense.
One hundred giant mechanical "Dyson spheres" began their march toward the Orion Arm of the Milky Way.
When these giant mechanical "Dyson spheres" had been traveling through hyperspace for some time, they suddenly fell back into normal space when they were about three million light-years away from the star Tsunami.
A translucent golden sphere, gleaming with a bright light, floated silently in the path of these giant mechanical "Dyson spheres".
In the blink of an eye, the ten giant mechanical "Dyson Spheres" shone brightly. The surfaces of the "Dyson Spheres" began to open, each revealing a huge umbrella-shaped object. The umbrella-shaped objects shone brightly, and in the center of the huge umbrella-shaped objects, a thick energy tube began to fill with energy, emitting a bright green light.
Ten massive torrents of energy, with the speed of thunder, simultaneously poured towards the golden sphere. The golden sphere didn't raise any energy shield, yet it remained as immovable as a rock under the onslaught of the surging energy. The other ninety giant mechanical "Dyson Spheres" also activated, this time unleashing not visible energy torrents, but intense gamma-ray bursts. The golden sphere remained completely unharmed, seemingly unaffected.
One hundred giant mechanical "Dyson spheres" ceased their attack.
Suddenly, a giant mechanical "Dyson sphere" accelerated and flew rapidly toward the golden sphere.
The golden sphere remained motionless.
Just as the giant mechanical "Dyson sphere" was about to collide with the golden sphere, the golden sphere suddenly disappeared. However, the giant mechanical "Dyson sphere" seemed to be forcibly pulled into an abyss by a huge unknown gravitational force, and then all around was darkness. The "Dyson sphere" tried to open its metal shell to release the star, but the giant mechanical "Dyson sphere" could no longer move, as if it had been frozen in time.
From the perspective of the other ninety-nine giant mechanical "Dyson Spheres," their companion, which was rapidly crashing into the golden sphere, had inexplicably disappeared.
Ninety-nine giant mechanical "Dyson spheres" began to accelerate instantly, trying to leave the golden sphere, but it was too late. Like their companions, the ninety-nine giant mechanical "Dyson spheres" were each forcibly pulled into the abyss by a huge unknown gravitational force and were frozen in place.
After absorbing one hundred Dyson spheres, the golden sphere began hyperspace travel and soon arrived at the base of the five hundred giant mechanical Dyson spheres on the Perseus Arm. Before these mechanical Dyson spheres could react, they were all quickly sucked into the golden sphere's "belly," without missing a single one.
Ignoring the probes returning from their "Dyson Sphere" base, this golden sphere continued its hyperspace journey, this time heading directly for the Mechanical Galaxy.
In neighboring galaxies around the Milky Way, warships from the Dakolai Supercluster alliance rushed to support the Mechanical Galaxy. The Mechanical Galaxy, naturally, was also a scene of chaos.
The Alliance base in the Mechanical Galaxy had already directly sealed off hyperspace and warp space, both with a diameter of one million light-years. However, the sealing of hyperspace and warp space failed, and the golden sphere entered normal space directly through hyperspace, quickly arriving at the Alliance base in the Mechanical Galaxy.
Although the Alliance base had been preparing for war for some time, the Alliance was not ready to fight back and never expected that the golden sphere would break through the dual blockade of hyperspace and warp space.
As a result, all the warships, Dyson spheres, and artificial creations at the Alliance base were instantly sucked into the golden sphere and completely wiped out, as if no intelligent civilization had ever been in the space where the base was located.
The warships that were preparing to support the mechanical system from neighboring star systems, including the stellar-class "Halo Garden" similar to the Earth Empire, all turned around and sped through hyperspace toward the surrounding star systems.
The golden sphere began releasing a super shockwave that directly disrupted and sealed off the hyperspace of over a hundred star systems surrounding the Mechanical Galaxy. Alliance warships and other vessels attempting to travel through hyperspace crashed back into normal space. The golden sphere itself, however, was able to travel through hyperspace, systematically eliminating the Alliance warships and artifacts in these neighboring star systems. Just like the Alliance base in the Mechanical Galaxy, it was completely wiped out.
The golden sphere began its hyperspace journey, accelerating towards the "Giant Gravitational Source" of the Armenian Cosmic Great Wall. Like dumping garbage, the golden sphere released all the warships, giant Dyson spheres, and other artifacts of the intelligent civilization alliance that had been sucked into the Dakolai Supercluster. The "Giant Gravitational Source" absorbed all this "garbage," and in moments, these intelligent civilization creations disappeared without a trace.
The Dakolai Supercluster Intelligent Civilization Alliance simply vanished without a trace.
The golden sphere accelerates through hyperspace towards the Milky Way and returns to its original position.
This metal sphere is the miniaturized "Shengtian Bowl" of the Earth Empire, with a diameter of only about eight kilometers.
The intelligent civilization of the Standa Supercluster Alliance probably detected the anomaly in the Kola Supercluster and fled long ago.
The Earth Empire, although it had long detected the Standa Supercluster Alliance's escape via hyperspace intergalactic travel, took no action and has not pursued them. The Earth Empire believes that since one of the two supercluster alliances has disappeared, the other has no enemy and will naturally cease disrupting galactic order. As for whether the escaped Standa Supercluster Alliance members will cause trouble in other star systems, that will be known through reconnaissance. The Earth Empire believes that after the disappearance of the Dakolai Supercluster Intelligent Civilization Alliance, the Standa Supercluster Alliance will certainly remain quiet for a considerable period.
Scientists at the Imperial Academy of Sciences began analyzing the "light fragments" released by the "Light Child" for the second task. The second task given to the Earth Empire by the "Matrix Civilization" was very brief: to make the Earth Empire the "Creator"!
This very "creator" stumped almost all of the empire's high-ranking officials and scientific representatives.
"The Creator?" Commander-in-Chief Thomas began to ask. "The role of God? Pangu separating heaven and earth?"
What is the difference between the Creator and the Creator God?
"There doesn't seem to be much difference between the two."
"Dean Zhou, why do you think the 'Matrix Civilization' would assign such a mission?"
"Personally, I think that if we exclude the possibility that the 'Matrix Civilization' has ulterior motives, it's simply a test of the Empire's wisdom. 'Creator'? I guess the 'Matrix Civilization' also wants to figure out the origin of the universe, so they're having us simulate the role of 'God'?"
"That's very likely."
"Dean Kofi, can we quickly and realistically simulate the period from the Big Bang to the emergence of intelligent civilization, such as the industrial civilization?"
"Dean Zhou, we can create a 'mini-universe' and realistically simulate it, but time is an issue."
“Understood. The ‘microcosm’ we created can implement a ‘light speed barrier’, allowing billions of years of evolution to take place inside the ‘microcosm’. This way, we won’t have to spend too much time outside the light speed barrier of the ‘microcosm’.”
"Hmm, this method works. If so, we can use the original Earth solar system as a sample to conduct life evolution. In other words, we're going to create a second solar system?"
“Dean Coffey, Thomas, everyone, I don’t think the ‘Matrix Civilization’ would appreciate our creation of a second solar system.”
"Dean Zhou, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is, if we take the creator of this universe as the benchmark, wouldn't creating a second solar system disappoint the 'Matrix Civilization'?"
"Yes, Dean Zhou is right. For any mission we undertake, we must thoroughly understand the intentions of the 'Matrix Civilization' and combine their goals with the strength of our Empire."
"clear."
"Then shall we create a 'mini-universe' the size of the Milky Way?"
"A 'microcosm' the size of the Milky Way, that should be about right. Energy creates matter, and a 'microcosm' the size of the Milky Way would require a considerable amount of energy."
“Create a ‘light-speed barrier’ ‘mini-universe’ the size of the Milky Way, let this ‘mini-universe’ evolve on its own, let life evolve on its own, and we are just observers.”
"However, there are a few problems with this 'light speed barrier' and 'miniature universe,' and I personally think we should reach a consensus now."
"Dean of the department, what's the problem?"
"First, to what level can this 'microcosm' allow intelligent civilizations to develop? Does it end at the highest level of industrial civilization? Second, after the 'microcosm' ends, what should be done with all the intelligent civilizations that existed within it? Third, where should the 'microcosm' be created?"
"Yes, these things do need to be agreed upon beforehand. Let the relevant departments of the Imperial Academy of Sciences study and determine this."
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief."
"By the way, Coffey, could we manufacture some smaller Klein field generators? Not the super-large Klein field generators that drive the Milky Way. My idea is that these smaller Klein field generators could be used to drive the stellar-class 'Halo Garden' fleet and could quickly traverse the Great Wall of the Universe."
"Dean Zhou, is your idea that we should form a fleet capable of quickly traversing the Great Wall of the Universe?"
“Yes, driving a galaxy is too big a target and easy to expose. It would also be a waste to do something unimportant. It would be better to build a fleet that can quickly cross the Great Wall of space. These fleets can share the burden for the galaxy. I want to go back to the Andromeda Cluster as soon as possible to see those Alliance members. After all, they can travel across galaxies. I am worried that something might happen to them.”
"Dean Zhou's consideration is absolutely correct. We don't know how those alliance members are doing. If a fleet that can quickly cross the Great Wall of the universe is formed, the Milky Way will be the base of these fleets. Let the fleets be responsible for what they can do. There is no need to drive the Milky Way to do everything."
"The miniature Klein force field generators used to power the stellar-class 'Halo Garden' fleet and enable it to quickly traverse the Great Wall of space will be produced soon. We'll produce a thousand of them to form a thousand fleets capable of rapidly crossing the Great Wall of space. Dean Zhou, you can lead your fleets out in three days."
"Thank you."
“Okay, it’s settled then. Coffey, come up with the ‘Minicosm’ Creator Plan as soon as possible.”
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief."
Three days later, Zhou Yuan, Wei Shan, and Lefia led one hundred Earth Empire fleets on their journey and soon returned to the Virgo Cluster, the Great Wall of the Laniakea universe.
