Chapter 605: Anti-universe war zone collapses!
Outside the node universe.

The double-pyramid Genesis Fortresses are embedded in a thick cosmic membrane like rivets.

Compared with normal cosmic membranes, this cosmic membrane is obviously a bit weird.

Its surface is not only smooth, but also has an extremely regular texture - this means that the regular-space chimeras that make up this cosmic membrane are arranged in almost the same way.

Yes, this is an artificially constructed cosmic membrane.

In addition to those Genesis Fortresses that are like rivets, there are a large number of Genesis Fortresses wandering back and forth outside this cosmic membrane. These Genesis Fortresses continuously weave the freshly-baked rule-space chimeras into a net and accurately cover it on the surface of the cosmic membrane to increase its thickness.

Thanks to this, although the node universe has shrunk significantly compared to before, its stability has not actually declined at all.

Even under the maintenance of tens of thousands of Genesis fortresses embedded in the cosmic membrane, this cosmic bubble has become a cage that allows entry but not exit.

Catching a turtle in an urn is nothing more than this.

As for the interior of the node universe, it was still the same as before, with the deep starry sky divided into two distinct blocks.

One of the blocks was located near the central black hole, flashing a faint bright yellow light from the inside out, while the other block was naturally illuminated into dark blue by the zero-point rays of the human fleet.

Whether it was relatively advanced energy, space and dimensional weapons or basic kinetic weapons, all offensives stopped at the junction of bright yellow and dark blue, and then dissipated in the starry sky in an extremely strange way.

Outside the "wall", there is constant gunfire, but inside the "wall", life is peaceful and quiet.

——If you ignore the worker scorpions that were “disemboweled” and had their time crystals taken out alive.

Inside the Z619 expedition fleet flagship command center.

"It seems that those scorpions have to pay a very high price to maintain this time barrier." Qin Yao casually placed the real-time image from the reconnaissance ship in front of Fang Yunsheng, "Old Fang, look, those giant scorpions have already started to kill each other!"

Qin Yao said with great joy: "If this trend continues, maybe we can achieve final victory before the Academy of Sciences arrives at the battlefield!"

There wasn't much of a smile on Fang Yunsheng's face.

As the commander-in-chief of this fleet, he looked out the porthole at the Wall of Sighs that was flashing bright yellow light, with a hint of uneasiness flashing in his eyes from time to time.

Based on his past combat experience, the Apophis civilization would never do such a stupid thing as to waste its own manpower.

But this strange situation still occurred.

Then there is only one possibility left -

These giant scorpions have big plans!
In other words, he overlooked a crucial factor that was so important that it could even affect the outcome of the war!

"…Xina Luo civilization?"

A flash of inspiration suddenly came to Fang Yunsheng's mind.

"What?" Qin Yao was stunned. Not hearing clearly for a moment, he asked subconsciously.

"Any news about the reconnaissance ship we sent out to search for the Xinalo civilization?" Fang Yun suddenly turned his head to look at Qin Yao beside him.

Qin Yao subconsciously operated the holographic interface at his side.

"……No."

He checked it carefully and finally shook his head: "It's strange. Those reconnaissance ships have searched the star fields around the node universe, but they can't find any trace of the Xinaluo civilization."

"just like……"

"It's like this civilization suddenly disappeared from the node universe." Qin Yao said casually.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

This casual remark was like a bolt from the blue to Fang Yunsheng's mind.

The wisps of haze that had originally obscured his mind dissipated instantly, and his gaze quickly moved towards the depths of the starry sky.

"broken……"

"Quick!" Fang Yunsheng's face suddenly changed, and he shouted sternly, "Quickly send a warning message to the anti-universe expeditionary fleet!"

"Anti-universe?"

"Yes!" Fang Yunsheng's tone became more and more anxious. "The central black hole of the node universe is connected to the anti-universe. The Xinaluo civilization is likely to have been sent to the anti-universe!!"

After these words were spoken, Qin Yao's expression changed slightly.

"Damn it!"

He cursed under his breath and quickly called up the communication interface: "Calling Z173 Expeditionary Fleet, this is Z619 Expeditionary Fleet, please reply!"

The inter-universe communication was quickly connected, and a strange voice was heard from it. Then, a man with gray hair and a serious face appeared in the holographic interface.

"This is the Z173 Expeditionary Fleet, please speak."

The tone was calm, even a little relaxed.

Qin Yao and Fang Yunsheng looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time - they were lucky, at least no unexpected situations had occurred.

"Lao Liu, it's me, Fang Yunsheng."

Fang Yunsheng calmed down and said in a deep voice: "How is the battle situation over there?"

"Pretty good." Old Liu replied cheerfully, "The scale of the giant scorpions in our war zone is not comparable to yours. Currently, the activity range of those giant scorpions has been compressed to a star field 10,000 light years away from the central black hole."

"I guess..."

Before Lao Liu could finish his words, Fang Yunsheng interrupted him and said, "Lao Liu, I will send you some information now. Send out all the reconnaissance ships immediately and keep a close eye on the situation of the central black hole of the anti-universe..."

Old Liu looked at Fang Yunsheng in bewilderment: "Wait, wait a minute! What's going on? What happened?"

Having said that, seeing Fang Yunsheng's stern expression, Lao Liu still subconsciously winked at his subordinate beside him.

"The situation is a bit complicated. In short, we have lost a very important civilization in our war zone. The Academy of Sciences believes that this civilization may be related to the broadcasting civilization..."

"Drip-drip-drip-"

Before Fang Yunsheng finished speaking, a sharp warning sound came from the communication channel, interrupting the conversation between the two.

In the picture, no one knew what Lao Liu saw, but his expression changed visibly.

"Old Liu?" Fang Yunsheng suddenly had a bad premonition in his mind, "What happened to you?"

"The Apophis scorpion suddenly started a counterattack!"

Lao Liu cursed in a low voice: "Damn giant scorpion, you really don't know how to live or die!"

"Quick! Increase the output power of Genesis, keep the fleet moving forward, and stuff all the cannons into the mouths of those scorpions!"

"Old Liu!"

Faced with this sudden situation, Fang Yunsheng became more and more anxious. He knew better than anyone that there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. The abnormal behavior of the Apophis giant scorpion must mean some variables.

He shouted: "Be careful of the trap!!"

boom! ! !
The holographic communication interface shook violently, and Fang Yunsheng's heart also began to beat violently!
"That, that's..."

"Damn!!!"

Along with a cry full of horror, the entire communication interface suddenly went dark!

"It happened!"

Looking at the [Unstable Signal] prompt message that popped up automatically in the holographic interface, Fang Yunsheng's face suddenly changed: "Something happened!"

"Lao Liu! Can you hear me?"

"laugh……"

The only response he got was a slight rustling sound.

"zero?!"

Fang Yunsheng didn't have time to think, he stood up and shouted: "What happened to the Z173 fleet?"

The holographic interface quietly changed, quickly forming a familiar figure.

Unlike usual, at this moment, Zero's expression was extremely solemn: "The information flow communication and the hyperspace membrane communication signal have been interrupted."

"I only intercepted the fleet log and video data fifteen seconds before the communication was interrupted."

As Zero's voice fell, a video clip lasting only fifteen seconds began to play on the holographic interface nearby.

The picture is quite clear at first.

Similar to the battle situation in the node universe, the anti-universe Apophis scorpion also built a bright yellow time barrier to block the offensive of the expedition fleet.

But as time passed, this stable picture gradually changed.

First of all, the image quality. A large amount of noise appeared on the image data, and the image quality began to decline rapidly.

"Why is it so blurry..."

Fang Yunsheng frowned subconsciously. At first glance, he even thought he had come to the era when the Human Alliance had just left their home planet - this thing was simply an ancient picture quality!
"At about the fifth second, an extremely strong disordered information flow storm appeared in the anti-universe central black hole region. It not only penetrated the expedition fleet's information shield, but also caused great interference to communications."

Zero stood aside and explained carefully: "During the data transmission process, there are naturally quite a lot of packet loss and missing phenomena."

“The current image quality is the result of my many restorations.”

Fang Yunsheng nodded silently.

"It is precisely because of this reason that my control over the Z173 Expeditionary Fleet has declined significantly."

Zero's voice continued: "In order to avoid affecting the battle situation, I urgently activated the emergency plan, and the ship's main brain began to gradually take over the computing tasks."

The picture jumped to the eighth second.

The image at this time had become standard "landline image quality". Countless noise points stimulated Fang Yunsheng's eyes, and he subconsciously squinted his eyes - doing so actually made it easier to see the content of the picture clearly.

From a pile of mosaics, Fang Yunsheng vaguely recognized the approximate area of ​​the expedition fleet and the Apophis scorpion group.

"The scorpion group left the time barrier on their own initiative?" Fang Yunsheng murmured in a low voice.

"good."

The image in the holographic interface zoomed in again: "When the intensity of the information storm reached its peak, the scorpions came out in droves and attacked the encirclement of the Z173 fleet."

Under Zero's control, the blurry picture began to jump in frames.

When the time node reached the ninth second, Fang Yunsheng suddenly widened his eyes.

"and many more!"

He suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the center of the screen.

Suddenly, a few scattered red spots appeared in the bright yellow time barrier.

Although the time was very short, the strange red color still caught Fang Yunsheng's attention.

"What it is?!"

The picture zooms in again with the crimson color as the center.

After several operations, the image that only occupied a few pixels has become a blurred mosaic.

But even so, Fang Yunsheng, with his eyes slightly narrowed, could still roughly recognize his identity from his outline.

"This is……"

He raised his hand and swiped it across his side, retrieving from the holographic interface the file that was previously prepared to be transmitted to the Z173 expedition fleet.

The document does not contain much content, only five pages at most.

Fang Yunsheng skillfully turned the document to the last page, which described the "companion civilization" of the Xinalo civilization in a very small space.

"Kraken?!"*2
Fang Yunsheng and Qin Yao beside him exclaimed in unison.

Yes, that irregular red sea of ​​light is exactly the appearance of the Kraken!
……

In the pan-universe.

Accompanied by a strong wave of space-time fluctuations, a huge fleet quietly appeared on the bizarre hyperspace membrane.

Except for some special types of functional ships, the entire fleet is almost entirely composed of neutron fortresses and black hole fortresses.

These extreme stellar fortresses, which should have been the core combat force of a fleet, were now surrounding a giant gyroscope-shaped structure that was a hundred light years in scale, like stars surrounding the moon!

The moment the fleet appeared, endless [Strings] spread out from the base of the building, and quickly constructed a rule force field that belonged to itself on the hyperspace membrane and was sufficient to wrap up the entire fleet!

This is the Human Alliance’s top combat force—the Academy of Sciences-type Genesis Fortress.

"Why is it the Kraken?"

Inside the academy of sciences, a holographic interface exactly the same as what Fang Yunsheng saw appeared in front of Chen Fan. He could hardly believe his eyes and could not help but let out a low exclamation.

"It's indeed a bit strange..."

Chief Lu raised his hand and touched his chin, frowning into a "川" shape: "According to our speculation, the Xinalo civilization is the test subject of the broadcast civilization. If there is a problem, it should be the Xinalo civilization. The Kraken is just a byproduct of accidental birth. How could it be..."

"No, you are wrong. Kraken is probably not an accident..."

Chen Fan's mind quickly flashed back to the 310 million year layout that Kraken had described to him: "I think I understand..."

"Chief Lu, you should know that although the Kraken was born very early, he really grew into a nebula life mainly due to the aftermath of the battle between the Ghost Fleet and the Broadcasting Civilization 310 million years ago."

"If there hadn't been that war, there wouldn't be those warped spaces in the anti-universe, and the Kraken wouldn't have been able to take shape!"

The fog in Chen Fan's mind gradually dissipated, and his tone became more certain: "If the purpose of the ghost fleet's arrival in the anti-universe and the birth of the Kraken is to guide the past Xinalo civilization, then there is no reason for the broadcast civilization with the home advantage to let it grow freely!"

"It's like an experimental field. The useless weeds will eventually be pulled out."

"unless……"

Chief Lu understood and took over Chen Fan's words: "It is both a pawn of the ghost fleet and a pawn of the broadcast civilization!"

"Not bad!"

"I guess... the broadcasting civilization took advantage of the situation and included the Kraken in its plan!"

"Hiss..." Chen Fan finally couldn't help but gasp, "Three hundred and ten million years of planning, just for this moment..."

"Who made this plan anyway?"

"This computing power... is too terrifying!"

Chief Lu didn't say anything, but it was not difficult to see his inner horror from his suddenly dilated pupils.

In the holographic interface, the picture continues to jump in frames.

With the appearance of that red color, a huge "bubble" appeared in the central black hole area without any warning.

Just like a soap bubble that was stimulated by external factors, the bubble exploded after shaking slightly for a moment, and the space-time fluctuations caused turned into a shock wave, which suddenly roared towards the surrounding expedition fleet and scorpion group!

"This is... a cosmic bubble collision!"

Academician Lin Yang's voice came from not far away: "Those scorpions used the small universe that transported the Xinalo civilization and Kraken as a disposable weapon!"

On the other side, at the moment when the shock wave spread to the surroundings, the red sea of ​​light transformed by the Kraken "crashed" into the central black hole without any hesitation and with a very clear purpose!
At this moment, the video material has reached the end of the 13th second.

Under the gaze of a group of academicians, a deep black light suddenly appeared at the edge of the black hole.

"Singularity disorder..."

Seeing this scene, Chen Fan's face suddenly turned ugly.

Inducing singularity disorder should have been his unique skill, but now it has become Kraken's method!
"No wonder the broadcast civilization wants to keep the Kraken..."

Beside him, Chief Lu suddenly realized: "As a nebula life form, Kraken also has a consciousness constructed by information flow. In other words, it can easily enter the black hole just like you!"

As he spoke, Chief Lu seemed to have thought of something. He nodded thoughtfully, then glanced at Chen Fan calmly and muttered to himself:
"Is it because Chen Fan is not on the battlefield..."

"Broadcast civilization had to use the backup plan?"

Chen Fan's heart trembled and his expression changed slightly.

He was about to speak when his attention was drawn by a few frames of images jumping again in the holographic interface.

The black light spread rapidly, like a black lightning raging in the center of the battlefield!
Whether it was the Apophis giant scorpion or the Human Alliance battleship, they disappeared into the starry sky the moment they came into contact with the black light!
This is an indiscriminate attack!

Of course, since the Apophis scorpion is closer to the central black hole, strictly speaking, this should be a self-destructive move that hurts the enemy 100 times and hurts itself 1,000 times.

To some extent, this can even be considered good news for the Human Fleet.

But in the next second, something strange happened.

Boom! ! !
A strange vibration came from the depths of the black hole, sweeping across the entire universe like a tsunami.

At the same time, the black light that was spreading around in the form of lightning seemed to be affected by some unknown factor. It suddenly exploded and swept around at an astonishing speed that Chen Fan had never seen before!

One frame, two frames, three frames...

The picture only jumped for five frames, and the huge and fierce battlefield was completely covered by black light, leaving only a gray-white virtual dot vibrating rapidly in the center of the universe.

Next frame.

The picture was completely plunged into darkness.

The video footage from the Z173 fleet also came to an end.

ps: There is more tonight, I’m writing the second chapter!

We will perform a signature show tonight: Finishing on the Spot!
