Star Fleet, Starting with Datafication

Then, the illusory array of patterns, with the Fallen Gods and the Hunters as nodes, gradually solidified.

At the same time, the combat power of many fallen gods and hunters has increased significantly, and their defense and attack have even begun to tend to be combined!

The already formidable Fallen God Legion's integration of defensive and offensive formations is not a simple matter of stacking together.

The dark light spear, far surpassing anything seen before, was unleashed with a deafening roar, sweeping across the starry sky and causing the shields and armor of numerous fortresses and megastructures within a range of thousands of light-years to crumble instantly!

This attack, imbued with the power of a million fallen gods and hunters, has reached 100% high-dimensional enhancement, resulting in a destructive force on the order of 500,000 to 600,000!

The previously tight blockade began to collapse, and upon seeing this, the monitoring matrix immediately ordered a proactive retreat, deploying a large army to form an even larger blockade.

Furthermore, the giant structures and fortresses that were originally clustered in an array within a star region began to migrate irregularly into the surrounding empty starry sky.

Although this would result in a significant loss of firepower, it would effectively prevent the enemy from clustering together and being bombarded.

The fallen army and the mechanical legion of the Guardian Matrix were once again locked in a stalemate.

Central Star Region.

Tens of thousands of planet-sized, solidified structures gradually converged, and then several structures that were no different from the others moved to the forefront.

[Confirmation complete. In accordance with emergency wartime protocols, the stasis pods for senior officers are activated ahead of schedule.]

[Activation Confirmed - Lieutenant General Charles Tulls of Imperial Star Air Force]

[Activation Confirmed - Imperial Marine Corps Lieutenant General Love Kafel]

[Activation Confirmed - Imperial Command Staff Officer - Lenaje Vruski]

【...】

As the command was quickly issued, the equipment on the pillar where the twenty-odd people were located immediately dimmed, and then the golden liquid quickly disappeared.

"call!!"

"What happened?!"

"Something's wrong with the timing. It seems the Fireseed World has been attacked. Proceed to the monitoring control room immediately!"

"Yes, Lieutenant General Charles!"

"..."

The group quickly arrived at the guarded structure, and surprisingly, the officers of the Imperial Army were very young.

Whether it's the age of the soul or the age of the genes, according to the calculation of a level seven civilization, it is even still in the youth stage.

Charles, Love, and Lena, who were in charge, instantly received the latest information through mental sharing.

His expression immediately turned serious as he stared at the fallen army of gods in the scene, whose individual combat strength was formidable and whose group coordination was equally ferocious, utterly perplexed.

“I’ve never seen them in the original world. Given their strength, they must have existed for a very long time. There should be records of them during the prosperous period of the Lop Empire.” Lena asked in confusion.

Charles activated the three-dimensional star map: "The most urgent task is to defend against enemy attacks. The Empire is facing a great calamity. If it weren't for the fact that the Empire had found the ruins of an eighth-level civilization..."

It is likely that even the current 500 million elite population of this Fire Seed world would not survive, as they would have already been distorted and polluted by memes, and at best, they would have degenerated into a first-level civilization or even a primitive society.

Our 500 million elite population must not be harmed!

As he spoke, Charles looked up at the tens of thousands of stagnant megastructures in the central star sector.

A colossal structure the size of a planet, yet its equipment can only retain and purify ten thousand elite people...

The elite population identified in the criteria for advanced civilizations are all young, highly talented and capable, and possess both talent and ability, allowing them to surpass their predecessors in their respective fields.

It's not hard to imagine how precious these 500 million people are. You have to understand that this is the most brilliant spark in an advanced civilization with a vast population and unparalleled prosperity!

As long as these people are still around, it wouldn't be difficult to return to their previous level of civilization.

"Deal with the enemy as soon as possible. If we don't return to the stasis chamber within ten years, the still-unpurified dark forces will completely engulf us."

Charles reminded him of something.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

However, everyone's expressions soon turned grim. Even during the Imperial era, the Guardian Mechanical Legion was considered powerful.

They're actually starting to lose!

Chapter 268 Wang Sen: Get a T5 Immortal-class Dreadnought to Help

Let alone ten years, given the current situation, even if they can win by relying on their strong industrial and resource reserves, it will probably take a hundred years!

When advanced civilizations of similar strength engage in warfare, even their basic capital ships possess the defensive strength of a war star shield, as understood by a level six civilization.

To destroy it, it would require at least a considerable amount of time to engage in a direct exchange of fire or to launch a high-dimensional attack.

Add to that the so-called "customized time" in the universe, which passes by imperceptibly; a hundred years is just the best-case scenario.

Charles, Love, and the others exchanged glances and then said, "The plan has changed. While mobilizing the legions and arranging industrial production to resist the enemy, we should try to draft a plan!"

The level of perfection must take all aspects into account, and take into account all unexpected events and possibilities and provide solutions.

If there is still time after the plan is finalized, we can enter the stagnant megastructure ahead of schedule.

If there isn't enough time to restart the stasis pod, even if we are swallowed by darkness, the monitoring matrix will still proceed according to our plan!

"Yes!"

......

The vast starry sky was slightly rippling.

Then hundreds of warships, each with a different shape and equally dazzling appearance, emerged from the starry sky.

Holding the staff, Qingyang coldly swept his gaze around, while the endless explorer template continuously swept across the surrounding starry sky, distant stars, and even the battlefield within sight.

Extremely detailed data and intelligence were rapidly developed.

What was finally presented to everyone was an extremely detailed intelligence report, which even included a list of families of 500 million elite people and their clothing habits.

Is there a more efficient way to gather intelligence than by exploring the narrative level directly?

“Lopu Empire…isn’t that the peak level 7 human civilization that was destroyed due to interference from the dark higher dimension in the background of the war?” Ning Qian exclaimed in surprise.

Jiafei pondered, "I didn't expect there to be a massive Fire Seed World with a population of 500 million of the most elite."

Belya, standing next to Qingyang, was quite curious.

"Although the advanced technology of an eighth-level civilization is well-designed, it is still surprising that it can withstand the memetic distortion of the dark higher dimension."

"Macro-level interference from the Supreme Dark Dimension is interference, and the arrival of any weak divine fragment is also interference. The Alliance didn't say how much interference it would cause."

Qingyang was not surprised by this, and did not rush to join the battle while watching the fierce battlefield.

Putting aside the fact that the human side consists of mechanical units, based on your understanding of your own alliance, how could an alliance that is so protective of its own members not have any security measures?

Even if you throw that so-called source of the fallen gods into a group of ordinary humans, it won't really harm any of them!

"Immediately release the starships, with the legion fleet positioned in the middle to rear of the allied forces, to coordinate with the mechanical legions of the Lop Empire and push forward!"

Having determined that the allied forces of the fallen gods in the field could be dealt with, Qingyang immediately issued orders.

Instantly, millions of starships exuding powerful auras appeared in the starry sky, followed by a significant boost to their star weapons, talents, and star adjutant skills.

The extremely powerful fluctuations surged again, and hundreds of high-dimensional fluctuations of different intensities merged and spread, immediately attracting the attention of the fallen legion of gods within tens of thousands of light-years around!

A total of 1.4 billion digitized mechanical warships, like stars in a fan shape, spread out at the rear of the starship legion, with index fluctuations comparable to those of the Loptibond Guardian Mechanical Ship!

It should be noted that the Lop Empire is a peak level 7 civilization, while the fleets of these prodigies are only T6 at this moment.

If they reach T5, these mechanical ships could probably even suppress the elite main warships of the former Lop Empire!

Faced with such a massive, high-quality energy source, some of the fallen gods who were fighting the Guardian Mechanical Legion immediately changed their target and charged straight at the Star Alliance.

At the same time, the digitized mechanical army, which was two or three times the size of the guarding mechanical legion, immediately attracted the attention of more than twenty Rop human officers.

His expression was one of astonishment. Before he could react, the screen in the monitoring control room suddenly opened, revealing a figure.

After a moment, watching the figure, exuding an aura of sublimity and holiness on a spiritual level, depart, Charles and the others silently processed the information in their minds.

A few seconds later, Charles asked incredulously, "So we've... encountered a superior civilization of the same race?"

A civilization of the same kind that could inspire a profound sense of spiritual superiority in the Lop Empire would be at least a peak level eight civilization, and possibly even a level nine civilization.

Although the difference in civilization level is enormous, the difference in soul rank among people of the same race is even greater!

It evoked a sense of déjà vu, comparable to a first-class civilization facing the immense power of a single, fragmented star-level entity.

It stems from the gap between the will of the ethnic group and the spiritual community.

Lena nodded absently: "Does this mean our compatriots can awaken ahead of schedule? And with the help of this superior civilization, I believe the Lop Empire will return soon!!"

Everyone couldn't help but get excited. After all, they were young people, and even if they had plenty of experience, they were still far inferior to the older generation in advanced civilizations.

However, most of the older members of the Lop Empire perished along with the Empire and its entire main force, along with the endless meme warpers.

At that time, almost all the civilized creatures in the world were distorted and corrupted, and the resulting memetic monsters completely covered the starry sky, as if darkness had descended!

"Forget it, let's not think about that anymore. Guardian Matrix!"

[Confirmation complete - in accordance with Article 373 of the Fire Seed Agreement]

[When the awakened high command unanimously approves, and determines that there is a 95% probability that the elite population can be dealt with in the event of an emergency, that is, by issuing a full liberation order]

[Confirmed - The unexpected event is: A superior civilization (100%)]

[Confirmation complete. Activating all Fireseed population stasis chambers. Transferring highest access to the monitoring matrix.]

[Guardianship Matrix File Overlay - Revival Matrix]

[Confirmation Completed - Revival Matrix Activated]

[Lop Empire Central Database Activation, Central Seed Bank Activation, Registered Technology Tree Activation...]

As he watched the guardianship complex gradually transform from a circular structure into a multi-ringed residential megastructure, Charles took a deep breath to suppress his excitement.

I thought this awakening was just an emergency awakening in the middle of the crisis, a hasty attempt to deal with the situation, and that I would then continue to sleep and wait for that uncertain future.

I never expected this...

Ignoring the battlefield, Charles and the others began studying the data on the Revival Matrix.

Mysterious enemy forces?

What a joke! Even if we fight them, they're enemies we can only slowly whittle down. We don't need to think much about what will happen if they face a stronger civilization.
