The second piece of information comes from the war zone to which the 1776 structural unit of [Gate of Time and Space] belongs. .

The simulation picture is still very short, but there are some relatively special discoveries.

Through approximately 5.8 billion repeated monitoring, the Alliance Supreme Academy found that between the minus 43 seconds (0.000…43 zero seconds) before the attacked fleet was "melted" and the mass of the attacked warship suddenly took a significant jump, which increased significantly and then dropped rapidly until it finally disappeared.

The old guys from the Academy of Sciences did not give any conclusions about this. General Meng Dun was not engaged in scientific research, so he didn't know the whole story. He just instinctively pondered for a moment, and then continued to consult information from other war zones.

...

As time goes by, the "grey area" finally approaches the radius of the star domain where the first defensive echelon is located.

The first defense echelon is the most important part of the entire [Gate of Time and Space] energy unit No. 1562. It not only occupies the vastest defense line, but also deploys the most troops, second only to the garrisoned forces in the core area. The combat effectiveness of the entire first defense echelon is composed of 36 main battleships under the 271st Star Fleet of the Alliance and 12 coalition fleets of super cosmic civilizations.

According to the initial defense plan, such an interstellar armed force is definitely an extremely powerful combat force, but it caught everyone off guard and unexpectedly that the enemy they were about to face would be so powerful and so weird!

Soon, a frontal war was about to break out. Although the First Defensive Echelon adopted all the attack modes they mastered to fight back with all their strength, all they could do was to delay the spread of the "dark area" to the core area, and not stop its spread.

What is even more worrying is that as the military power of the first defensive echelon is rapidly swallowed and consumed, the "dark area" has also recovered and even surpassed its original level in terms of expansion speed.

...

At the same time, everyone smelled the breath of war. The silicon-based robot fleet located in the second defense echelon had already entered the highest level of combat readiness.

Yuan Chen is still in his laboratory, but the experimental research that has been ongoing before has stopped. The large experimental equipment that cannot be named is now like a rock, silently like a sleeping metal beast without making a sound.

Suddenly, General Volcano Ball broke into the laboratory.

【Scenario mutation, situation mutation!】

General Volcano Ball shouted and rushed straight to Yuan Chen, who was still thinking deeply at that time.

Yuan Chen came to his senses and asked, "Is it the battle situation of the first defensive echelon?"

[This is just a small part of it!] General Volcano Ball waved his strong upper limbs and looked down at Yuan Chen in front of him, saying with a serious expression, [Just just received the notice that General Meng Dun had issued the final resolution of the coalition military command center, and the zero-light speed barrier is about to be activated!]

"So, can the first defensive echelon no longer resist the enemy's attack?" Yuan Chen immediately reacted and then asked, "How long will it take to start the zero-speed barrier? What should the remaining garrison fleet do?"

The situation is urgent, and General Volcano Ball answered very concisely: [The coalition command center gives us two choices. First, retreat to the core area of ​​the energy unit and enter the zero-speed barrier. Second, move to the "Gate of Time and Space"!]

"Turn the Gate of Time and Space? What does this mean?" Yuan Chen frowned slightly and asked hurriedly.

He knew what it means to retreat to the core area of ​​the energy unit and enter the zero-speed barrier. They will be imprisoned by the zero-speed cage and are likely to engage in a war with the enemy that lasts billions of years from the perspective of the external reference system.

If they do not wait for powerful reinforcements, they will die in gloriously and will be destroyed with the 1562 energy unit of [Gate of Time and Space].

On the contrary, if they are lucky enough to wait for rescue and eventually escape from the zero-light speed cage, what they will face may be a world billions of years later.

But even so, Yuan Chen's attention was still focused on his second choice - to switch to [Gate of Time and Space].

How to turn and why? He was eager to know more details.

General Volcano Ball knew Yuan Chen’s doubts, and he immediately explained: [Everyone knew very well that the loss of the energy unit No. 1562 has become a foregone conclusion. Even if it was not deep in the cage of zero-speed light, the vast majority of the surrounding stars as energy sources were lost, it was not far from being completely destroyed. However, the seriousness of the situation was still far beyond our imagination. This time, it was not only the structural unit of the "Gate of Time and Space" that was attacked, but also the subject of the "Gate of Time and Space" was also under great threat!]

"The dark area also surrounds the main structure of the time and space gate!?" Yuan Chen asked in surprise after hearing this.

[No, it is not the "dark area" that surrounds the main structure of the Gate of Time and Space, but the fleet that annihilates the Alliance.]

Before Yuan Chen could speak, General Volcano Ball immediately added: [It is the genuine Annihilation Alliance fleet, and their main fleet, the absolute main force!]

"How can the main fleet of the Annihilation Alliance drive straight into the main structure of the [Gate of Time and Space]?" Yuan Chen immediately realized, "This raid in the Annihilation Alliance really played a big game!"

[You are right!] General Volcano Ball said to Yuan Chen with a serious expression, [Using the strange "grey area" to surround the structural units on the periphery, forcing the alliance to draw a large number of military forces to disperse the assistance, and then they took the opportunity to concentrate the main fleet to attack the main structure of the time and space gate!]

"This time, the Annihilation Alliance's action did successfully hit us hard, but the most important thing is [Gray Area]. Without the weird [Gray Area], they would not be able to hold on and swallow most of our military power." Yuan Chen analyzed.

[Yes, what the hell are these "dark areas"?] General Volcano Ball also agrees deeply.

"Is there an unknown hostile force in this universe that we don't know?"

This is a problem that has been plaguing Yuan Chen recently. The "dark areas" are really beyond everyone's perception, making people reluctant to believe that they are the fleets of the Annihilation Alliance.

[No matter what the "dark area" is? They are our enemies after all.] General Volcano Ball said helplessly, [As for the current situation, it is meaningless for us coalition forces to continue to stay in the No. 1562 energy.]

Yuan Chen nodded in agreement. First of all, the coalition forces are unlikely to be the opponent of the "dark area". Secondly, if the main structure of the [Gate of Time and Space] is destroyed, what is the point of defending these energy units?

[This time is definitely the most difficult time to save the league, and it is also the second crisis of destruction that the "Gate of Time and Space" has encountered since its establishment!] General Volcano Ball said with emotion.

"So, the military command center let us switch to the gate of time and space?" Yuan Chen asked back, "How to switch to the gate?"

[It is impossible to break through. A large number of "dark areas" have almost surrounded the entire No. 1562 energy unit. Even if you successfully break through, it is impossible to reach the main body of the "Gate of Time and Space" in a short time.]

"Has a super-space tunnel been built in the core area?" Yuan Chen quickly thought of the only way.

[Yes, the super-space tunnel leading to the main structure of the "Gate of Time and Space" and the zero-light speed barrier are all preparing at the same time. Just waiting for the coalition forces to retreat to the core area!] General Volcano Ball said.

"So, how did you decide to shake the ice?" Yuan Chen knew that the final choice belonged to the super leaders of the Silicon-based Mechanical Civilization Fleet, and he and General Volcano Ball could only act with him.
