Time travel to become the guardian AI of a lost civilization

Chapter 94

"...Is this the war between the lost empires?" Breining looked at the galaxy where the war was breaking out, with an indescribable expression in his eyes.

The heavy rain brewing in the dark clouds finally flashed a thunderstorm at this time.

The place where the two lost empires first clashed was in the mother galaxy of the "Stone Man Civilization".

For this civilization that threatened to make them "all bow down", the "Watcher" and "Farwalker" unanimously sent a small fleet to see how he planned to make them bow down.

So the two lost empires fought directly in the galaxy.

The poor little toothpick fleet of the "Stoneman Civilization" was directly swept out as garbage in the chaotic battlefield, and the star base that swore the sovereignty of the galaxy was also constantly changing hands in the exchange of fire, but it did not return to the hands of the Stonemen.

The only thing they are lucky about now is that the home planet is still far away from the battlefield, and there probably won't be a few slanted beams of light coming straight towards them all of a sudden.

At first, only two small fleets of the Lost Empire came here, that is, a small establishment made up of a few frigates and a battlecruiser watching the scene.

But after the two fleets exchanged fire, they began to shake people, which quickly led to the escalation of the battle here.

The place that was originally regarded as a key galaxy by "Watcher" and "Farwalker" and where a frontal battle might break out was unexpectedly calm.

And their fleets are constantly jumping to the edge of the Milky Way, the mother galaxy of the "Stoneman Civilization" to fight.

They are both lost empires, so they naturally have ways to guard against the sudden attack of the "jump engine". Every galaxy they control has at least one "superluminal suppressor".

The most notable function of this kind of equipment is to disrupt the "consistent time and space" required for the leap of the "jump engine", so that foreign enemies cannot use this elusive method to directly come to their core area.

Even if they use the "jump engine", they can only come near their borders, and after that, they still have to rely on normal hyperspace navigation to enter their galaxy.

However, in this way, the threat will be greatly reduced, and they will all have sufficient time to respond to hostile actions.

It's just that there was no war on the expected frontal battlefield, but a large-scale battle broke out in an unknown place.

"...there are already more and more? Could it be that 'Watcher' and 'Farwalker' are going to have a showdown there?" Brianning's subordinates also looked at the screen on the electronic screen, the overwhelming fleet , showing an incredulous expression.

In the place where the two lost empires broke out, even the most daring adventurers dared not go in and secretly take pictures. The civilizations had to use their own observation methods to find out.

But the picture formed by this method is not as clear as the first-hand resources. There have been interstellar rich people who have been offering rewards for death squads that can provide real-time live broadcasts.

No one has taken up the job yet, but even the blurred picture is enough to distinguish the number of these huge fleets.

Many civilizations calculated the size of the fleets involved in this war, compared their own strengths, and found sadly that just the small battle that broke out here was enough to bulldoze them.

At this time, the fleets that came to the mother galaxy of the "Stone Man Civilization" have exceeded hundreds of both sides, and even the Titans have joined in. It is hard to say whether the outbreak here is still a "small battle".

The "Watcher" fleet, which is mainly based on psionic power, seems to be unimaginably powerful in war.

The shields they enhanced with psychic energy and Zelo have much stronger protection than normal civilization, even the "far traveler" is slightly inferior in this regard.

Under the bombardment of countless battleships, the "Farwalker" fleet, which was slightly weaker in defense, obviously suffered greater losses.

But "Farwalker" also has advantages over "Watcher".

Due to the disdain of "robots", the fleet of "Watchmen" does not use ship combat AI, they are actually controlled by powerful psychics.

However, "Farwalker" has conducted in-depth research on unmanned combat, and each of their warships is equipped with "intellectual combat AI", an efficient space combat fleet intelligence.

But even so, the ship loss of "Farwalker" is much greater than that of "Watcher".

After signing the contract with the existence in the virtual world, the combat strength of the "Watcher" has risen to a huge level.

After in-depth research in the field of psionic energy, the unique combat equipment "predictive interface" developed by them can predict the future to a certain extent. Although it is inaccurate and the time is very short, it also greatly reduces their losses.

After investing the same number of fleets, the "far traveler" fleet in this galaxy has shown a decline.

It is hard to imagine that the two sides who were evenly matched in ancient times would decide the outcome so soon. As a last resort, the "far traveler" who was in a passive situation could only take the lead in responding.
They directly launched an attack on the "Watcher"'s homeland, and a large number of warships jumped to the border position, and then went to the "Watcher" space fortress, aiming to take a foothold first.

For these two lost empires, infiltration can have little effect, and only the frontal war is the most important.

The unique psychic sense of the "Watcher" can detect any spies, thereby preventing infiltration from breaking out on the planet.

And the "Far Travelers" also have their own set of means, their cutting-edge mechanical prosthetic body and polygraph have unparalleled effects in dealing with spies.

So this "Battle of Heaven" is actually a competition for production capacity between them.

However, the production capacity of the "Watchers" who have already signed a contract with the Void Realm is ridiculously high. During the "calm before the storm", they assembled far more fleets than the "Farwalkers".

So after some confrontation, although the civilizations didn't see anything unusual, the "far traveler" has already realized the seriousness of the situation.

"——Our intelligence is wrong? Why is their fleet replenishment so fast?" A fleet commander of the "Farwalker" looked at the battle damage report, and the expression on his face was not very good.

Indulging in a depraved environment for a long time, he never thought that the first battle after waking up would be a failure.

The small battle that took place in the home galaxy of the "Stone Man Civilization" has come to an end. In the eyes of all the civilizations, it seems that they have withdrawn their troops, but in fact it was the "Far Traveler" fleet commander who first issued the emergency jump order.

The "Watcher" fleet that failed to wipe out the opponent naturally also left, but they appeared in certain galaxies on purpose, and seemed to be in a guerrilla state, searching for the single "Farwalker" fleet.

After they left, the stone man civilization thought it could breathe a sigh of relief, but it did not expect that a large number of spaceships from other civilizations would follow.

Many of them are adventurers, but many more are officials.They are constantly dismantling and transporting the remains of the fleet in this galaxy, or pulling them for sale, or trying to research the lost secrets from them.

During this process, some frictions naturally occurred again. The stone man civilization without a fleet could only wait for them to finish their work, and then watched helplessly as the wreckage of the warships was transported away piece by piece, leaving no one left.

After a period of time, the entire galaxy was like locusts passing through. Except for the planets, everything was clean, and even the asteroid belt was taken away with ulterior motives. It is hard to imagine that a war broke out here.

However, the stone people who regained control of the star base returned to their confident appearance, and it was completely impossible to see that they had declared war on the two lost empires.

The commanders of the "Farstrikers" began to worry about the balance of victory in this "Battle of Heaven". They did not understand why the old enemy who was once evenly matched grew stronger than them after a long time.

The fleet that tentatively attacked the "Watcher" border before has lost contact, but they have nothing to do with the life and death of this fleet, because it was originally used as a bait.

In the end, an intelligence agent found some clues from the galactic information they regarded as garbage, and informed these high-level rulers.

"'The end of reincarnation'? This strange space seems to provide a powerful boost for those idealistic idiots..."

"...According to the 'Prophet' Zaklan who was removed from their name, the 'Watcher' signed a contract with this thing in exchange for incredible blessings..."

"This is really idealistic enough, but if this is the case, according to the records about the 'End of Reincarnation', then they don't have much time..."

"so……"

"—Let's defend, as long as we delay until the moment they are liquidated, that is our victory. At that time, we can also use this galaxy to achieve our goals..."

These high-level executives quickly made a decision and began to enter defensive mode. If they fought on their own territory, their advantages were quite obvious.

And in order to delay time, they would occasionally send out harassment fleets to scurry across the galaxy, the purpose is to disperse the "Watcher" fleet.

And the "Watchmen" have also increased their offensive strength, not only because they want to completely eliminate this old enemy that has been fighting against them since ancient times, but also because they themselves understand the urgency of time.

During this process, an evil idea born deep in the heart also began to progress.

"High Priest, what is the purpose of the giant structure we started recently?" On the "Throne of Heaven", some believers asked the high priest what the giant structure near the holy place was used for.

"...that is a machine that extracts the power of the virtual world. The cracks in the virtual world left by the 'Apocalypse' around the Holy Land allow us to easily extract a huge amount of spiritual energy from it. With this power, we can ascend into another world. A world to catch up with the 'Apocalypse'."

The gentle voice of the high priest seemed to calm the believers, but the believers' eyes were still full of strong anxiety.

This was the inspiration bestowed by psychic energy, not only that, but the prophecy that Zachlan said before leaving also terrified him.

"... High Priest, 'Circle'..." He wanted to continue asking, but was interrupted directly by the High Priest.

"This is used by the servants of the evil gods to confuse people. The 'circle' is just inexplicable nonsense. Your belief is not strong enough. I will punish you for copying the "Apocalypse" a hundred times."

This time the high priest's voice was very flat, and it directly caused the believers to tremble, and left the place with their heads bowed.

After there was no one in the temple, the high priest whispered something to himself.

The powerful psychic energy obscured everyone's detection of him, so no matter what the situation, the psychic energy link could not sense his thoughts.

But if someone is here with his body and listens with his ears, he will be able to hear that he seems to be talking to something, and the breath of that unknown existence is very similar to the virtual world.
