With the support of a ninth-level civilization, do you want me to believe in electronic gods?

Chapter 566

The flow of information sweeping around him gradually became thicker, and the world in front of Chen Fan gradually became blurred.

Then, he felt an extremely slight, almost negligible sense of hysteresis.

This sudden feeling of sluggishness only lasted for half a second before quietly dissipating, and the dark and blurry starry sky in front of me gradually became brighter.

——His consciousness passed through the cosmic membrane and directly entered the fifth-dimensional space.

It is almost exactly the same as the picture in my memory. If the inside of the universe is a vibrant oasis, then the five-dimensional space outside the universe is a desert.

Under the reflection of the hyperspace membrane, countless light groups and light bands were surrounded by circles of distorted halos. They clustered on the surface of the hyperspace membrane, forming clusters of light spots of varying brightness.

"Inside the hyperspace membrane..."

Chen Fan turned his head and glanced at the anti-universe bubble behind him, which was as smooth as a peeled egg, and the panic in his eyes became more intense.

Even the cracks on the surface of the anti-universe bubble completely disappeared. As far as I can remember, Wang Jing once said that it would take at least hundreds or thousands of years for this thing to recover naturally...

Could it be that……

Did he sleep for thousands of years?
Chen Fan manipulated the flow of information in a panic, constantly modifying his coordinates.

The consciousness body, emitting gentle fluorescent light, kept flickering, and every time it flickered, it would appear in the star field at the end of the sight.

only……

This cosmic bubble is too big.

To make a simple analogy, the relationship between the cosmic bubble and him is like that of a paramecium living on Earth.

Even though he had mastered the coordinate modification technology, he still needed to perform countless coordinate jumps to explore the entire universe bubble.

At this moment, Chen Fan was like a headless fly, blindly searching for everything related to the human connection around the anti-universe bubble.

The first time the coordinates were modified, no traces related to human connection were found.

The second time, the third time, the fourth time...

As the number of coordinate modifications continued to increase, Chen Fan's expression gradually became numb, and the panic in his eyes became more and more intense.

Hope seems to be getting slimmer and slimmer.

suddenly.

Chen Fan's consciousness suddenly paused, and when he was about to make the next coordinate jump, he stopped in the empty five-dimensional space.

"That is……"

Chen Fan's eyes widened slightly, and his originally lifeless gaze became bright again at this moment: "Information flow?"

At the end of his sight, a "dazzling" stream of information shot up into the sky from the vicinity of the cosmic membrane in the distance, and went straight towards the boundary of the hyperspace membrane not far away!

Although the "appearance" of the information flow was somewhat unfamiliar, its unique structure and frequency still evoked memories deep in Chen Fan's mind.

"The information beam produced by the Genesis Fortress?"

Chen Fan murmured in a low voice, and his numb expression showed some life again: "Human Union...is not dead yet!"

He didn't have time to think carefully, and directly controlled the information flow around him to adjust the coordinate parameters again.

Swish!
Amidst the flickering white light, the consciousness body as small as dust disappeared again among the starry sky.

……

The Human Alliance warships responsible for this patrol were lined up in neat formation, quietly docked "directly above" the anti-universe bubble, and behind the fleet was a huge Genesis fortress.

"Old Xie, the information entropy fluctuations... seem to have completely disappeared?"

Lu Minghui looked at the holographic interface that had returned to calm and swallowed hard: "This..."

"How to fix it?"

Old Xie, who was sitting next to him, twitched his eyes slightly, and then glanced at the command that just popped up in the holographic interface beside him.

Just over ten minutes ago.

The patrol fleet detected high-intensity abnormal information entropy fluctuations around the anti-universe bubble, so almost all patrol warships sounded the alarm at the same time.

The Genesis Fortress, which was far away in the garrison camp, rushed to the scene as soon as possible and conducted comprehensive observations with the help of its high-precision detection equipment. At the same time, the Genesis Fortress also reported the abnormal situation to the Academy of Sciences according to the procedures.

After being equipped with the latest model of cross-universe information flow communication device, the response speed of this ultra-long-distance communication has increased several times. The Academy of Sciences also quickly gave its approval - to spare no effort to search for the source of the information entropy fluctuations at all costs.

But here’s the problem!

Just when the Academy of Sciences' order appeared in front of everyone, the sudden fluctuation of information entropy began to decay without any warning!

Even though all patrol warships were dispatched, and even Genesis Fortress joined the search, but...

They still haven't caught the tail of this information entropy fluctuation.

It is like a slippery loach that disappears among the starry sky without a moment's notice.

Not to mention the cosmic bubble in front of us, even in the hyperspace membrane area in the distance, there is no trace of it.

Having said that, Old Xie still bit his back teeth hard and said, "Keep searching!"

"This is an order directly issued by the Academy of Sciences!"

"Even if we turn the entire universe upside down, we have to find the source of this information entropy fluctuation!"

"..."

Lu Minghui did not respond to Lao Xie's words, and the cockpit suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

"Hey!"

Old Xie pushed Lu Minghui who was suddenly stunned: "Did you hear what I said?"

He raised his hand and pointed at the patrol warship that was gradually moving away outside the porthole: "The friendly forces have already set off, why are you still standing there?"

Hearing what Old Xie said, Lu Minghui turned around slowly and with a dull expression, staring at him with a strange look that Old Xie had never seen before.

"...Hey, hey, hey, Lao Lu, what's wrong with you?"

Old Xie panicked and quickly raised his hand to pat Lu Minghui's face.

"Old Xie..."

Lu Minghui turned a blind eye to Lao Xie's offensive behavior. He turned his head and looked out the porthole again, and murmured in an extremely weak voice: "Don't you see... there is a person standing outside?"

"Fuck you!!"

Hearing Lu Minghui's words, Old Xie felt his hair stand on end and goose bumps appeared all over his body.

He leaned back suddenly, and then subconsciously looked in the direction of Lu Minghui's sight.

There was nothing but the halo and light balls that were distorted by the existence of the hyperspace membrane.

Everything is as normal as before.

"I, I say, Old Lu, you, you kid, don't scare me..."

Old Xie's voice was trembling a little.

Especially when he thought of the various anomalies in this patrol mission, his uneasiness grew even stronger - it involved fluctuations in information entropy, and so many patrol warships were dispatched, and even the Genesis Fortress was deployed to maintain order. All of this seemed to prove one thing.

This seemingly simple patrol task is actually not simple.

Look, this kid Lu Minghui has been possessed by evil spirits!

The outside of the patrol ship is a genuine five-dimensional space. Is it possible for anyone to survive in the five-dimensional space?
Being able to say such nonsense, if this is not being possessed by evil spirits, then what else can be considered being possessed by evil spirits?

Thinking of this, Old Xie put on a stern face, calmly reached out his hand and touched the emergency warning button beside him.

"look……"

A trace of fear suddenly flashed in the depths of Lu Minghui's eyes: "He, he is approaching us..." Almost at the same time.

As two piercing alarms sounded in succession in the cockpit, the extremely smooth information entropy fluctuation curve on the holographic interface also soared suddenly - one of the alarms was an automatic warning issued by the ship's main brain, and the other was the emergency warning button pressed by Lao Xie in a panic.

Wow!
The patrol warships that had just dispersed like birds and beasts outside the porthole stopped their steps at the same time, and quickly returned to port amidst waves of strong space-time fluctuations, surrounding the warship where Lu Minghui and Lao Xie were.

only……

Old Xie was also stunned at this time.

The fear in his and Lu Minghui's eyes gradually faded, replaced by deep surprise and confusion.

There is no other reason.

——As the alarm sounded, he also saw the white figure floating in the five-dimensional space.

Not only that, under the gaze of him and Lu Minghui, a line of text constructed in standard human language quietly appeared on the holographic interface in front of them.

[Hello, I am Chen Fan, a Level III investigator under the Academy of Sciences.]

[V You 50,000 credits, please take me back to the main space science academy headquarters. ]

……

More than ten minutes later.

Chen Fan happily absorbed the azure light spots diffused around him, and took a few glances at the rapidly changing starry sky outside the patrol warship.

"Not bad……"

He nodded with satisfaction and retracted his consciousness back to the battleship engine area filled with pure vacuum zero-point energy: "Although the speed is far inferior to coordinate jump, this thing is much easier!"

Chen Fan was in a good mood.

The Human Alliance was still alive, and even the shapes and functional areas of these patrol warships were exactly as he remembered.

This means that he didn't sleep for very long.

At least it was much shorter than the hundreds or thousands of years he had previously thought.

This was undoubtedly great news, especially when he thought that he would soon see his physical body and companions again, the smile on Chen Fan's face became even brighter.

only……

People’s joys and sorrows are not shared.

Compared with Chen Fan, the atmosphere in the cockpit of the patrol warship was obviously a bit weird.

"Old Xie..." Lu Minghui looked at the decreasing energy output power in the holographic interface, and his tone became a little difficult. "When did the Dangerous Technology Administration recruit such an investigator?"

"It seems he is not fooling us. He is really absorbing the vacuum zero-point energy of the battleship!!"

Like Lu Minghui, Old Xie was also extremely shocked.

Having been a soldier for such a long time, this was the first time he had seen a "person" who could directly absorb vacuum zero-point energy - just a few minutes ago, they had reported the emergency situation they had encountered again, and also reported the name Chen Fan to the Academy of Sciences.

The Academy of Sciences' response exceeded everyone's expectations.

Almost at the moment the message was successfully sent, the computing power from the Academy's central brain directly took over the control of all patrol warships.

At the same time, the conversation between the Level III investigator and Zero began to automatically appear on the holographic interface.

After a few incomprehensible conversations, the patrol fleet stationed near the anti-universe received a new mission - to escort Chen Fan back to the main universe.

Transporting people and goods was something that both Lao Xie and Lu Minghui had done before, but this business of transporting conscious entities...

There were no pilots with relevant experience in the entire fleet.

In desperation, Lu Minghui could only give the choice back to Chen Fan.

then……

The above scene appeared.

"drop!"

The environment outside the battleship changed several times. As the star gate that stretched for more than 200 light years appeared outside the porthole, a clear reminder sounded in the cockpit: "This is the star field to which the node star gate belongs."

"This star region is currently under military control. Please submit a pass from the Academy of Sciences as soon as possible. Otherwise, Stargate has the right to expel you by force. I repeat, please submit it as soon as possible..."

"I don't know where this investigator came from, but he actually mobilized all the senior officials of the Academy of Sciences..."

Lu Minghui murmured softly, and skillfully transmitted a permission message to the Stargate control tower.

"Authentication completed. You will then enter the Stargate Express waiting line. The estimated waiting time is less than five minutes..."

[Martial law?]

As the information entropy fluctuations quietly increased, a line of text appeared in front of Lu Minghui without warning.

Although he had expected this kind of sudden speech, Lu Minghui was still startled by the words that suddenly popped up in the holographic projection.

He calmed himself down and said, "Just like you saw."

"The node universe star field has been completely designated as a military control area. Not only the node universe, but also some of the universe bubbles near it have been strictly controlled by the Academy of Sciences and the Human Alliance Expeditionary Fleet."

What’s the reason?

"You do not know?"

Lu Minghui turned his head in surprise and looked in the direction of the battleship's engine: "The war has begun."

【……What? 】

【war?】

【Whose war is it? 】

In the battleship's engine area, Chen Fan's originally relaxed expression had become extremely solemn.

The development of events did not seem to be as good as he had thought at the beginning.

[Broadcast civilization?] Chen Fan hurriedly sent a stream of information to the ship's main brain, [Broadcast civilization entered so soon? What is the current situation of the Human Union? How much of the pan-universe territory is left?]

Inside the cockpit, Lu Minghui and Lao Xie looked at each other in bewilderment at the numerous inquiry messages that appeared on the holographic interface.

Why do I feel like there's something...not quite right about this investigator?

What does it mean to say how much of the pan-universe territory is left?

Does he think that the Human Alliance will lose this war?
Lu Minghui scratched his head in confusion and directly threw the blame to his comrade: "Old Xie, you know more about this than I do, you tell me."

"..."

Old Xie pondered for a moment and then began to narrate with great caution: "I have indeed never heard of the radio civilization you mentioned."

"Currently, the Academy of Sciences is very strict in controlling information. I only know that the opponent of the Human Alliance is called..."

"Apophis Giant Scorpion."

"It is said that the other party is also a ninth-level civilization."

"Besides, the war has just started, the universe..."

Old Xie looked at the gradually enlarging star gate outside the porthole and the waiting countdown that had just returned to zero, and whispered, "I think it should still be relatively safe."

Wow.

As Lao Xie's somewhat rough voice sounded, the scenery outside the porthole changed rapidly.

The patrol warship was swept up by the strong fluctuations of time and space, and rushed towards the main universe of the human alliance outside the countless standard universes.
