Galaxy Technology Empire

Five-dimensional space-time.

To the southwest of the Garden Level, this place is very far away from Yunmeng Zechi. This is the border area of ​​the Human Innovation Alliance.

Ma Wu led a team of scouts through the scattered cloud islands, and suddenly a large floating ocean appeared in front of them.

"Minister, through this empty sea is the ghost forest." An Amethyst scout turned his head and said.

"Keep going." Ma Wu waved his hand.

The group of people rushed into the empty sea without hesitation. In some places in the five-dimensional space and time, there is no gravity, or the gravity is very small, so there are a large number of floating cloud islands, empty seas, and suspended mountains.

There were a large number of lower creatures in Kukai, and a large group of saucer-shaped creatures swam past Ma Wu and others, but these strange creatures turned a blind eye to Ma Wu and others.

After passing through an area of ​​cyanococcus, they entered the dead sand. Ma Wu looked around and saw a gray patch of color deep in the sand.

"Mabu, there is a ghost forest ahead."

Everyone galloped for a while and finally reached the edge of the gray area, which was a gray stone forest.

Five or six scouts sprang out from the ghost forest.

"Ma Department, Captain."

"Let's stop chatting and take me to the scene." Ma Wu said calmly.

"yes."

Everyone was twisting and turning in the ghost forest. As they went deeper and deeper into the ghost forest, Ma Wu became more and more heavy-hearted.

There are many traces left here, traces of the life of intelligent creatures. The ruins of buildings, murals engraved with mysterious runes, and equipment are scattered all over the place.

The scout leading the way stopped.

Then they entered an underground space.

Ma Wu grabbed a handful of dirt.

Dead silence, nothing but dead silence.

Not only the creatures in the five-dimensional space and time were wiped out, but the life in the four-dimensional and three-dimensional space and time were also wiped out.

The long underground tunnel has relatively intact contents. In the underground hall, there are some sculptures of gods and wall carvings with unknown characters.

Ma Wu opened the timeline here, and after a while he saw the black ball again, the black ball that destroyed everything.

"It's the black ball again, what the hell is this thing?" Ma Wu said with an ugly face.

"Mabu, this is where we found some information." A scout pointed at one of the walls and said.

Ma Wu turned his head and read carefully.

"Super dimensional ball...our tungsten gate civilization...167...swallowing souls..."

Although the words on the wall carvings are very complete on the timeline, the carvers made them in a mess, which shows that the carvers were very panicked at the time.

However, after Ma Wu put it together and analyzed it, he can generally read some of its meanings.

The Tungsten Gate Civilization was born about the 12th Era, and successfully ascended to the Ghost Forest area around the 6th Era, where they developed and grew.

Until around the 2nd era, their territory on the east side began to encounter attacks from a terrible enemy. Although the Tungsten Sect Civilization had a large number of people, this strange enemy was immune to time weapons and all other attacks. The Tungsten Sect Civilization was defeated miserably.

And this extra-dimensional ball seems to be able to track life. No matter how the Tungsten Gate people deal with it, this extra-dimensional ball can ignore it and directly harvest all life nearby.

Finally, it is a warning to latecomers to beware of attacks from super-dimensional balls.

"There are precursors to the hyperdimensional ball attack, and there will be a sudden surge in local time flow rate." Ma Wu focused on this information.

As soon as the Alliance received this information, it immediately set up time observation stations in various areas. Once the time flow rate surges, the Alliance will immediately notice it.

However, another discovery made by Ma Wu cast a shadow on everyone.

The emergence of super-dimensional balls is very fast. Judging from the two destroyed civilizations discovered so far, as long as the super-dimensional balls appear, the lives within hundreds of billions of hours around them will irresistibly suck away the souls.

These two destroyed civilizations have tried various methods of resistance, but unfortunately they could not escape destruction in the end.

Since the five-dimensional space-time cannot enable space jump, the movement is relatively slow in many cases, but the super-dimensional ball has a movement method similar to space jump, which makes the escape plan bankrupt.

Ma Wu continued to stay at the Ghost Forest to continue investigating.

The other side.

Huang Junjie became increasingly uneasy as he watched Ma Wu send back the information.

"Head of State, the scientific research department has been working hard to study this extra-dimensional ball, but we have never really seen this thing, and we don't have a clue at the moment." Wang Zhiqiang said helplessly.

"I know that now we have to investigate the surrounding situation as much as possible to see what the pattern of the emergence of this super-dimensional ball is. In addition, let the scientific research department develop equipment that can shield the soul fluctuations. I suspect that the super-dimensional ball looks for civilization based on the soul. ." Huang Haojie ordered.

"yes."

"Tiejun, the R\u0026D department of your headquarters is also following up on this matter."

"Yes! Head of state." Wang Tiejun replied seriously.

The entire alliance attaches great importance to this matter. After all, no one wants to work hard to upgrade to the fifth dimension, only to be wiped out without a trace for a few epochs.

Wait!

Huang Haojie suddenly reacted.

Opening the timeline of the Hongmeng clan that he had wiped out before, he discovered a situation. The life forms on Yun Mengze's side, whether they were five-dimensional creatures or four-dimensional and three-dimensional creatures, had a time limit.

The 147th era is a dividing line. Most civilizations and creatures appeared after the 147th era. The only exception is the Hongmeng clan.

The Hongmeng clan has existed for a long time of 426 epochs.

"Zheng Xian."

"exist."

Huang Junjie ordered: "Immediately continue to investigate various areas of our alliance. The target is the time period when life forms and civilizations appeared in all areas. Remember, whether they are five-dimensional, four-dimensional or three-dimensional, they must be counted."

"No problem." Zheng Xian replied quickly.

"This matter is very important. You must complete it as quickly as possible." Huang Haojie reminded seriously.

Seeing Huang Junjie's serious expression, Zheng Xian felt a chill in his heart and quickly returned to the Space-Time Management Bureau.

Under the intensive investigation of the Space and Time Administration, some hidden truths gradually surfaced.

Huang Junjie looked at the data solemnly, and he discovered a very terrifying pattern. The life and civilization in every area seemed to have been harvested by humans.

For example, near Yunmengze, the upper limit of life is 147 epochs; and near Tianxinghai on the east side of Yunmengze, it is 152 epochs, and further east is 157 epochs, 162 epochs...

In other words, an area will be destroyed or harvested every five epochs or so.

After Huang Junjie counted these data, he could calculate that the next harvest should be around the 53rd to 87th era.

Those extra-dimensional balls will appear in the vicinity of the league, although the time seems to be very long.

In fact, he also discovered another rule, that is, once the super-dimensional ball discovers the existence of level five civilization, the area where civilization exists will be harvested at once, instead of following the first harvest rule.

It can be inferred from this that the Reapers should have the intention to target the fifth-level civilization. Once a fifth-level civilization is discovered, the Reapers will immediately kill them all.

He turned his head and looked at the Hongmeng clan, which meant that the self-denial of the Hongmeng clan allowed them to survive.

And since the Hongmeng clan is not a fifth-level civilization, the reapers may not care about the ants in the four-dimensional space and time.
