A Colossus rushes in at the start

Chapter 322's approach to problem-solving is too suggestive.

Another parent universe offered a reminder: "Negative quanta can resolve singularities."

The proposing mother universe replied, "But right now, this demise that is slaughtering the Plinka civilization doesn't seem to have mastered negative quantum technology. If they had the ability to launch negative quantum attacks, wouldn't a single wormhole-style negative quantum attack be enough to wipe out the entire Plinka civilization? Why go through all this trouble?"

That makes sense.

The bee creatures unanimously agreed. If it were them who were to destroy the Pulinka civilization, which no longer exists, they would naturally choose the fastest, most efficient, and most convenient way to completely eliminate the enemy.

It's important to understand that battles between civilizations are extremely brutal; they're not child's play.

If this method wasn't adopted, it can only be explained that there was no other choice but to "extinct." If there were a choice, why not do it this way?

"No amount of thinking can prove the facts better than practical results. To see if this is true, we can let the Pulinka people try it out," a planetary creature suggested.

One of the mediums asked, "How do we try? The bee colony cannot expose itself and cannot contact the Plinka people."

The planetary creature that made the suggestion said, "Why don't we just let the Plinka people figure it out themselves?"

"You mean...?"

Some of the bee creatures belatedly realized what was happening.

"Yes, that's the one."

Subsequently, Lu Shang received information about the plans of the bee swarm.

After Lu Shang nodded in approval, the bee swarm carried out the induction program.

……

The Principe civilization was still fretting over the matter of its 'extinction'.

If this is an interstellar war, then it is unlike any interstellar war the Pulinka civilization has ever encountered, differing drastically in form.

Faced with the ever-expanding "extinction," the powerful ships and cannons of the Pulinka civilization were useless; they could not stop the expansion of the covered area. If the civilization did not want to be destroyed, it could only keep migrating to more and more distant places, much like the dust being wiped off a table, with absolutely no other choice.

"Have you received any news of the unmanned ships returning?" asked the commander-in-chief of the Prinkia civilization's military leadership.

"no."

The subordinate continued his report: "The extinction is likely a spacetime catastrophe, similar to a spacetime weapon, even more terrifying and catastrophic than any spacetime weapon we previously knew, and it will expand endlessly."

"According to the probe damage reports that have been released so far, the area affected by the extinction is spreading at faster-than-light speed and is gradually increasing its spread rate. If we cannot find a way to solve the extinction problem as soon as possible, it will inevitably catch up with our fleeing faster-than-light fleet in the foreseeable future, and then..."

Listening to his subordinates' report, the commander-in-chief, who had experienced the great interstellar war, couldn't help but feel a touch of sorrow in his eyes.

The fact that the unmanned ship did not return suggests that, in addition to the lack of further intelligence, its "extinction" is not simply a matter of cutting off communication.

The Commander-in-Chief clenched his fist; he had never felt so powerless, not even during the great civil war of the past.

If only Fuwahu were here, with his military talent, he could surely stabilize the current situation quickly—the commander-in-chief was filled with regret and lament.

However, one cannot only dwell on the past or think about "what ifs"; one must always look forward.

Having composed himself, the Commander-in-Chief asked, "How is Project Microcosm progressing?"

The military researchers in charge of the project shook their heads. Progress was not going well, and they had encountered a major research bottleneck that they needed more time to overcome.

The commander-in-chief then turned his gaze to another group and asked, "What about a higher-level faster-than-light engine?"

The military researchers, looking rather grim, shook their heads. Some were even too ashamed to look at the commander-in-chief, staring dejectedly at the conference table.

Is there really no other way?

Just as the Commander-in-Chief was feeling dejected, a researcher suddenly said, "Commander-in-Chief, I have a plan that I would like to submit to you."

The commander-in-chief immediately perked up, "Oh? Let me see it quickly."

He then took the document from the other party and quickly flipped through its contents.

After flipping through a few pages, the Commander-in-Chief put down the project document, looked at the researcher with mixed feelings, and murmured, "The Black Hole Fence Project?"

The researcher said, "Yes, the distorted spacetime of black holes is the most fundamental and stable spacetime known to date. If we can use black holes as walls, they might serve as a barrier to prevent annihilation."

The Commander-in-Chief asked in surprise, "Has it been confirmed that the ground-state spacetime of a black hole can prevent its annihilation?"

The researchers shook their heads and replied, "No, this is just a plan that hasn't been proven to be feasible yet. We're submitting it to you hoping to get your support so I can confirm its feasibility."

The researcher's meaning was clear: he hoped the military would invest resources in his unproven plan to confirm its feasibility.

Because it's uncertain whether it will work, it's possible that all your efforts will be in vain.

But there's no good solution right now, so we can only try it as a last resort.

The Commander-in-Chief nodded and asked seriously, "What do you need?"

The researcher replied, "A flagship that travels back and forth through the area of ​​obliteration, and some building materials for creating black hole generation equipment."

This resource is limited. While flagships are very expensive, there are many fleets of trillions of ships, so losing one is not a big deal. As for the equipment and building materials used to create black holes, the Commander-in-Chief does not believe they are more expensive than a flagship.

In other words, that's equivalent to the investment of two flagship ships.

The commander-in-chief agreed immediately without hesitation.

"Approved."

"This is a time of civilizational crisis; we must try every possibility," the Commander-in-Chief said resolutely.

The researcher immediately responded with a military salute: "Thank you for your understanding. I will give you a reply as soon as possible."

The medium creatures, hiding in the shadows, then contentedly made their way out.

That's right, this is yet another result of the Babel Tower bee swarm induction.

The mediums sought out the group of military researchers in the Prinkia civilization who were studying black holes. By colliding particles, they allowed these particles to enter the researchers' brains, affecting everything from elementary particles to macroscopic molecules. This led to a series of biochemical reactions, which intensified the researchers' psychological suggestion regarding black holes, "extinction," and spacetime.

These military researchers were already thinking about how to solve the problem of "extinction," and this kind of guidance easily led them to think in that direction, and the result was exactly what the bee colony wanted to see.

However, both the Principe civilization and the researchers themselves believed that this solution was their own idea.
