Star Fleet, Starting with Datafication

As he spoke, Qingyang loaded detailed star map data into the existing star map and simultaneously transmitted it to the two of them.

"Ok?"

Qingyang and the other two were astonished when they saw the detailed star map for the first time.

This is an unknown star cluster with a diameter of tens of millions of light-years. What surprised the three of them was that the celestial arrangement of this star cluster was not formed naturally.

Instead, they are arranged in concentric circles, making the entire star cluster appear as a very regular set of concentric circles.

From any angle, they are all concentric circles.

It's obvious that the spatial structure here has also been altered!

Transforming an entire star cluster would require at least an eighth-level civilization, and judging from the appearance, this star cluster is merely an area with a specific function, not a civilized area.

Otherwise, the local satellite network would inevitably be able to detect signs of life.

Of course, there is another possibility: the civilization here has been completely wiped out!

Qingyang suggested, "We're currently in the peripheral region, let's try to move towards the very center of this star cluster first."

The three fleets leaped into dark space and rushed toward the center of the concentric star cluster!

[Life signs detected]

[Data error detected... Data error detected...]

[Target identified as hostile unit. Defense procedures activated. Guarding Legion initiation.]

[The Guardian Legion has been activated, but data is missing and access is restricted. Checking... Confirmed...]

[A cosmic time travel has occurred since the last activation... Searching the machine logs for information...]

[Confirmed. The Supreme Council's population life leap plan has failed. The Supreme Council and its civilization are now extinct.]

[The Council's Final Directive - Seal off the Kaba Project Cluster, open the Dark Space Isolation Network, imprison memetic units, gradually eliminate the contamination, seal the source of contamination, and correct civilization's mistakes]

[Memetic Contamination Unit – All life forms of the Kaba Federation and its Supreme Council (currently imprisoned in megastructures and planets)]

[Source of Meme Contamination - Data Missing (Location of Sealed Area Determined)]

[Routine data completion complete. The unidentified civilization fleet has been determined to be a neutral unit and has been warned and driven away.]

[The underlying data architecture is missing, making it impossible to carry out the contamination cleanup plan. An emergency plan is being activated.]

[Awakening the pseudo-mechanical will matrix - the Guardian]

[Source of the Matrix's Will - The Eighth Councilor]

......

The three advancing star fleets simultaneously received a data notification.

[Attention, unidentified fleet! This area is a concentrated cleanup zone for memetic contamination.]

The guarding mechanical fleet is about to conduct a simultaneous cleanup of all memetic contaminated units in this area, and it is expected that some of the blockade will be lifted.

Large-scale meme contamination units will roam the area.

[Please evacuate immediately (a reminder from the guards)]

Qingyang and the other two exchanged a glance, their expressions somewhat serious.

Meme contamination?

Is the entire star cluster a 'prison' for holding memetic units?

"The guardian should be an intelligent program. The mechanical program sweeping away a large number of meme-contaminated units, why does it have a familiar tragic feeling of a civilization epic?"

Ji Shang couldn't help but say, his tone seemingly somewhat surprised.

Tragic?

Qingyang's mental threshold fully activated the alert matrix: "It's still uncertain whether this civilization has perished, so be as careful as possible."

A real-time surveillance range of two light-years is enough to give the Eternal Fleet ample reaction time.

"Commander, this area gives me a rather uneasy feeling."

Suddenly, Tian Ling's petite figure appeared beside the control room console, her brows slightly furrowed.

Qingyang paused: "Not feeling well?"

"Mmm, Brother Qingyang, I don't feel well either~"

Recently, the Xiangfei bird, whose purpose is unknown, has quietly appeared. The small red pheasant immediately caught the attention of the two commanders who were in constant video communication.

"Descendants of a higher-dimensional race?"

"A rich trace of divine direct lineage soul bloodline!"

The question came from Chris, while the affirmation came from Ji Shang's astonishment.

Qingyang's heart skipped a beat, but his gaze remained fixed intently on Tianling: "What exactly is wrong?"

"I'm not experiencing anything unusual, it's just that the atmosphere here isn't quite right for me," Tianling explained, shaking her head.

Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a moment, took off the Vermilion Bird Ring from his right hand and handed it to Tianling: "You wear this for now."

Suddenly, a strange black halo exploded in the dark space.

Forced the three fleets out of their sailing state, Ji Shang and Qing Yang subconsciously activated all the ship cannons and opened fire in all directions the moment they left the dark space!

Tina was a beat slow to react, but she quickly followed suit, and the sacred light bubble enveloped the three fleets.

All naval gunfire that penetrated the light bubble membrane was enveloped in a layer of sacred, luminous properties.

It was only then that Qingyang and the others noticed their surroundings.

Thousands of bizarre creatures, each tens of thousands of meters long, shrouded in black mist, twisted and decaying, filled the surrounding starry sky.

Hundreds of twisted vertical pupils writhed in all directions, and deformed multi-headed claws wriggled wildly.

Meme contamination unit!

[Archives - Basic Kaba Fallen]

The transmission of unencrypted data revealed information about these monsters and attracted everyone's attention.

Apart from the few hundred Kaba Fallen that pulled down three fleets, most of the Kaba Fallen were constantly besieged by tens of thousands of smooth, oval warships without any gaps or sharp edges.

Rays mixed with high-dimensional energy were killing groups of Kaba Fallen at a visible speed!

"Each of these mechanical ships has an attack energy level of 70,000, and they also have targeted high-dimensional attacks!" Qingyang exclaimed.

In other words, each one has the power to shatter a normal planet!

The Yuan Sha main cannon and the Yan Wu main cannon launched a fierce attack, and the thick and solid light spears suddenly pierced through more than a dozen Kaba Fallen in front of them.

Immediately, the two incredibly powerful spears of light began to move sideways at the same time, sweeping towards the Kaba Fallen in other directions!

Like two blades of light spanning several celestial spheres, the Kaba Fallen blocking the path of the three fleets was swiftly and decisively defeated.

The best warriors are at the forefront!

Dozens of aircraft carriers and the Blazing Star battleships also launched light spear attacks, and the light spears that swept everywhere quickly cleared out the surrounding Kaba Fallen.

Chris Tina's mouth gaped slightly, and Ji Shang looked at the Eternal Fleet with equal surprise.

If it's not the Star Warrior and Lieutenant talents... could it be that Qingyang's Agreement talent has been upgraded?

Tens of thousands of mechanical ships in the distance, after losing several thousand, also annihilated their targets and showed no intention of attacking the three fleets, quickly leaving to head to the next battlefield.

"I was initially worried that it wouldn't be able to damage the memetic infection units, but it turns out they don't have high-dimensional properties..."

Seeing the admiring expressions on their faces, Qingyang added a comment.

Unlike those Tina encountered in the League World, the Kaba Fallen were simply meme contamination and psionic corruption.

Even non-high-dimensional attacks can easily harm them, not to mention that all three fleets possess high-dimensional attack enhancement methods.

It's not difficult to clean.

The three fleets continued forward, but this time, before setting sail, Ji Shang first applied a layer of Star Weapon enhancement.

He then explained, "The spatial barrier-breaking effect means that unless the spatial sealing ability far surpasses ours, we will no longer be ejected from the dark space."

As time went by, the fleet continued its advance.

At least several hundred fluctuations, large and small, were detected along the way, indicating battles between the mechanical fleet and the Kaba Fallen.

Many of these bursts reached energy levels far exceeding the tens of thousands or even millions of exponential levels!

Some of the special Kaba Fallen even reached the level of higher-dimensional life, but they were still suppressed by the Guardian Legion.

Qingyang frowned and said, "It has been basically determined that if this civilization were to perish, it could not be because of an attack by the Kaba Fallen."

The mechanical fleet that remained was enough to suppress the Kaba Fallen, which included many units of higher-dimensional life forms.

At least a level eight civilization!

[A building suspected of being a technology data storage facility has been detected]

A notification appeared from the local network, and the three fleets, which were traveling at high speed, quickly locked onto the real-world coordinates.

The databases of advanced civilizations are of great value and must contain a lot of useful information.

Qingyang looked at the massive structure on the screen that enveloped a star, and raised an eyebrow: "Is that entire database?"

hum~

Suddenly, dark spatial ripples appeared around them, but Qingyang and the other two remained expressionless.

Sanctuary!

Radiant light throughout the heavens!

The law of killing!

The three layers of enhancement are stacked on the hulls of the warships of the three fleets, and the powerful energy index rises with each layer. At the same time, two layers of enhancement that are extremely restraining against memetic contamination are added to the ship guns!

The terrifying bombardment roared towards the thousands of Kaba Fallen that had appeared, the dazzling light waves exploding everywhere, instantly shattering the newly appeared Kaba Fallen.

The Kaba Fallen's counterattack posed little threat, and thousands of basic Kaba Fallen were quickly wiped out.

However, as soon as this batch was killed, more Kaba Fallen appeared one after another.

Meme-contaminated units will relentlessly attack and kill all normal meme units within their sensing range!
