Chapter 564 Penetration
"The dimensional agriculture layer is ineffective, damn it."
The four-dimensional civilized life did not expect that just one attack would be so troublesome.
But this is actually a normal operation for the Federation.
The super-range weapon itself is not only a symbol of huge energy, but also has to break through all defenses and reach the target directly.
This is the power of super-range weapons.
Some are through a little effort, and some are through a single force.
These are all super-range weapons developed by the Federation more than 100,000 years ago.
Until now, super-range weapons have been able to merge terrifying power and skillful penetration.
"The dimensional agriculture layer still has some impact on the beam."
"The beam itself is flying at superluminal speed, and the dimensional agriculture layer materializes its shell, and the two are offset."
"The energy inside it will penetrate the shell, and then contact the dimensional agriculture layer again, and it will experience dozens of such hardening in the process of penetrating the dimensional agriculture layer."
"Its power is expected to be reduced by 0.3%."
0.3%!
What a ridiculous number.
Their defense can only reach this level?
"I've said it before, we need to study dimensions."
"Offense is the best defense, and blind defense will only lead to passive attacks."
Another consciousness was transmitted to the conversation.
They don't have biological organs in the popular sense, which means they can't communicate through sound.
Perhaps highly developed civilizations can do this, but it's as inconvenient as humans abandoning their mouths and using body language to communicate.
Their way of communication is a kind of communication between consciousness bodies.
In three-dimensional space, although consciousness itself has been discovered and used, the Federation has not explored its essence.
In other words, it is impossible to explore the essence of consciousness in three-dimensional space, which is determined by physical properties.
In four-dimensional space, this is much easier.
Consciousness itself has many four-dimensional attributes. Of course, that is closer to the concept of four-dimensional space-time, not the concept of four-dimensional space.
But in high dimensions, consciousness itself is indeed more obvious.
According to the exploration of four-dimensional civilization, consciousness may originate from a higher dimension. In a certain dimension, the concept of matter no longer exists, only consciousness.
"That's impossible. How much energy is needed to spy on the dimension?"
"For our civilization, that is a serious burden. According to calculations, we have no chance to thoroughly study the dimension."
A consciousness refuted that statement.
The owner of that statement said angrily: "Three-dimensional civilizations have already found a way to enter the fourth dimension."
"You are too stupid. If we prepare early and do our best, we will definitely be able to break through the dimension."
"Now, the three-dimensional civilization has set up weapons in the fourth dimension. This is really no chance."
"You stay here and wait for death, and I'm leaving!"
A person in the consciousness space asked: "Do you want to betray your civilization?"
However, it did not get an answer because the other party had cut off the connection of consciousness.
"You only know how to question."
"I don't understand what will happen even if we really study the dimension thoroughly?"
"By then, we will be exhausted and unable to resist the invasion of the third dimension."
"What's more, we are not only facing the invasion of the third dimension, but also the invasion of other dimensions."
The pressure on them is very high.
To study the dimension with all our strength means giving up the development speed in other aspects, which is a dead end.
The only thing I can get is psychological comfort.
——I have tried my best!
"The dun layer has been broken through, and the next step is confrontational interception."
"Start the high-energy turret!"
When one consciousness made this decision, it was immediately rejected by the next consciousness.
"You can't do this!"
"That energy has adsorption properties, and the energy we send over will replenish its energy instead."
"Let's use the method it transmits back to create stars to activate its mechanism."
This is the only way.
The time left for them to prepare is too short.
"The energy for creating stars is not up to standard, and we need to weaken its energy."
"I propose to weaken its energy in the simplest way."
What is the simplest way?
It is to intercept directly with matter.
When a light beam penetrates matter, it will inevitably lose energy.
"Hey, hey, hey, haven't you noticed it?"
"The light beam that you predicted just now will lose energy when penetrating the dun layer is based on the premise that the light beam itself cannot absorb and convert matter, otherwise its speed will be affected."
"Now observe again!"
A group of consciousnesses observed the light beam.
Sure enough, the beam did not have the expected 3/1000 energy attenuation, but instead increased its energy intensity by 7/1000.
In other words, the matter created by the agricultural layer was absorbed by the beam and converted into a pure energy body.
"What on earth is that?"
All consciousnesses were stunned.
The technological content of this thing is much higher than they imagined.
If they use matter to intercept it, it will make the beam even stronger.
Then they still only have the solution to the individual issues on the battleship.
"Start it!"
"Use a mechanism to intercept it and make it explode in advance."
A sphere, or a hypersphere, faces the beam.
Although the beam has entered the interior of the star system, it is still thousands of astronomical units away, and it takes 5 days to hit the star.
The diameter of the four axes of the hypersphere, xyzw, is 7.41 meters.
This is not a special number, it just happened to be made into this diameter.
After it was launched, it met the upper beam head-on.
This time was 4.22 days later.
At the moment before the beam collided, the matter inside the hypersphere reacted violently and evolved into a dazzling sphere.
After the sphere expanded to a diameter of 238 kilometers, it quickly began to collapse, creating internal pressure.
At the moment the beam hit it, the pressure and temperature reached the peak.
This peak is only slightly lower than the value set by the beam weapon.
In theory, it is entirely possible to make the beam weapon make a wrong judgment, thereby expanding and exploding.
However, it did not.
The beam weapon penetrated the manufactured star without hindrance and continued to move towards the real star.
"How could it be? Is it so accurate?"
The four-dimensional civilization life predicted that the cluster weapon may have scanned the star they were in and set the pressure and temperature to an accurate value.
But in fact, their judgment was wrong.
The cluster weapon is not so accurate. The reason why it did not explode at this time is that the bonding between particles still exists.
The bonding time of the cluster weapon particles is initially set, and its threshold changes not only with pressure and temperature, but also with the bonding of particles.
The civilization mistakenly judged that the cluster weapon only relies on pressure and temperature to expand and disintegrate. In fact, they are separated.
This is not for accuracy, but it is cheaper to do so.
In other words, even if they create a pressure and civilization that perfectly matches their own star, they cannot interfere with the cluster weapon.
This is desperate!
A civilization is actually helpless against the cluster weapon.
They can only watch the beam approach their star.
