CHAPTER 509: CHAPTER 508 INFORMATION STAGNATION

"It’s practically suicide, taking the initiative will only hasten your demise!"

Facing the information torrent unleashed by the Metal Civilization, the Krypton Gold Civilization was truly infuriated.

After all, in their view, the Metal Civilization was merely an experimental subject of theirs, which should have obediently departed with them, but now it dared to make a move against them—it was outright rebellion!

However, although verbally confident and arrogant, the Krypton Gold Civilization did not take things lightly. After all, as a civilization that had experienced countless wars, they understood the perils of warfare, especially since the Metal Civilization had also reached a Level 5 civilization and was using information weapons. The Krypton Gold Civilization realized they had to respond cautiously; otherwise, it would be all too easy to capsize in a ditch.

To counteract the information torrent that turned the Information Sea World upside down, the Krypton Gold Civilization, based on their analysis of existing intelligence, decided to use Information Stagnation. According to its weapon principle, Information Stagnation could precisely counteract the information torrent, as Information Stagnation’s principle is to arrest the flow of information particles and to destroy their macroscopic projection capsules, thereby annihilating or disintegrating macroscopic objects.

This was the ultimate weapon developed by the Krypton Gold Civilization after prolonged research.

As soon as the information torrent collided with Information Stagnation in the Information Sea World, it created a fierce opposition, and the original chaotic Information Sea World suddenly revealed two strangely opposing scenes: one side raging like a flood, the other deathly still like stillness itself. The conditions on both sides appeared to represent the absolute powers of motion and stillness, creating a bizarre and terrifying clash at their collision point, looking as if they were blossoms of motion and stillness!

Eventually, after a persistent confrontation, the information torrent was ultimately defeated. It was pushed back step by step by Information Stagnation, switching from extreme agitation to extreme stillness in an instant, all of the restless information particle groups were wiped out, and the Information Sea World quickly quieted down!

However, this calm was too much, eerily still to the point of causing one’s hair to stand on end, and even conveying a sense of death as this effect of stillness swiftly spread across the Information Sea World. After flattening the scope of the information torrent, it surged even more intensely towards Metal Civilization and the rest of the Wandering Alliance’s Battle Stars.

Faced with this situation, the Metal Civilization did not choose to take it head-on but instead transported instantaneously to another safe location through the Jump Engine. Similarly, the other Battle Stars that were within the range of the Information Stagnation’s attack also repositioned themselves one after another using Jump Engines, thus turning danger into safety.

Among them, the Entropy Dragon timely relocated, and a globular nebula within the attack range of Information Stagnation was affected. Under the destructive strike of Information Stagnation, this globular nebula, spanning about 0.5 light-years, instantly changed from dynamic to static, and soon after, this magnificent nebula swiftly disappeared into the starry sky.

Unexpectedly, a nebula of approximately 0.5 light-years was destroyed overnight—the Krypton Gold Civilization indeed deserved its reputation as a longstanding Level 5 civilization, displaying unfathomable and terrifying strength!

Moreover, the Krypton Gold Civilization’s actions did not stop there. After resolving the attack of the information torrent, the Krypton Gold Civilization also adopted a strategy of turning passive into active, ordering over three thousand Krypton Gold Battle Stars to suddenly disperse in all directions.

Since the Battle Stars of the Wandering Alliance were already scattered everywhere, it resulted in widespread warfare. If the Krypton Gold Civilization continued to maintain a dense formation, they would easily be encircled by the Battle Stars of the Wandering Alliance, and could potentially fall into a passive and disadvantaged position. Although maintaining a dense formation also had certain advantages, the drawbacks would be more significant. Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, the Krypton Gold Civilization ultimately decided to separate their Battle Stars and adopt individual annihilation tactics.

In an instant.

The over three thousand densely arrayed Krypton Gold Battle Stars scattered in all directions, resembling a poked honeycomb with swarms spreading out and launching attacks everywhere.

Facing the Krypton Gold Civilization’s special one-on-one combat tactic, the Wandering Alliance temporarily had no better approach. Leader Lu Chen could only have all of his Battle Stars fight with all their might, trying to annihilate the enemy Battle Stars while ensuring their own safety.

Boom boom boom!

After a probing attack, the Wandering Alliance and the Krypton Gold Civilization completely tore off their masks of civility, with both sides going all out in combat. For a while, various dizzying, multicolored Energy Attacks rose and fell amidst the stars, the battle fiercely intense, as if a chaotic and dazzling light show was taking place in the universe.

The war between two Level 5 Civilizations had significant implications. Amidst the ongoing conflict, Space Distortion occurred, with collisions of various attacks causing explosions, and the shockwaves from these blasts sweeping across space, turning it into a disordered and dangerous area. Under the continued impact of these energy shockwaves, the Black Hole Gravity wielded by Lu Chen was also weakened to some extent. The newly formed New Nebulae that had just been balanced were gradually pushed outward by the shockwaves. Although this outward push was slow, even not reaching the first cosmic velocity, the consequences would still be unimaginable if allowed to continue unchecked.

Therefore, Lu Chen, who had just evolved into a Black Hole, promptly increased the Gravity Increment, exerting it over the entire region.

Firstly, to further stabilize the New Nebulae that were being pushed outward; and secondly, to impose heavier gravity constraints on each Krypton Gold Battle Star. Although such gravity constraints were negligible for a Level 5 Civilization, in the midst of this battle situation, making the Krypton Gold Civilization spend extra attention and energy was laying the groundwork for a future victory.

If in a war, timely advantages, geographical convenience, and unity are critical factors.

Then Lu Chen, by evolving into a Black Hole, had forcefully twisted the spatial factor, thus giving his side the geographical advantage.

Since Lu Chen was using Gravity Increment across the entire region, this was akin to suddenly introducing a powerful Black Hole Gravity Field in this space. Enemy Battle Stars situated within this Gravity Field had to expend extra energy to counter its restrictive force, and this was the concrete manifestation of geographical convenience.

Additionally, there was another less visibly advantageous aspect. That is, within the Supernova Explosions, the formation of new New Nebulae that were currently caught between the pull of energy shockwaves and gravity constraints further intensified and accelerated internal friction, thereby speeding up the birth process of fresh Constant Stars within the New Nebula.

Under normal conditions, even if a nebula meets all criteria, the birth of a newborn Constant Star would still require at least several hundred thousand years, or even millions of years. The nebula’s interior must continuously undergo friction to condense the central Hydrogen into a spherical rudimentary Star Core, which then further absorbs surrounding Hydrogen. Once the mass reaches a threshold and the nuclear fusion reaction is fully ignited, it can officially become a newborn Constant Star.

However, these are under normal circumstances.

If aided by Celestial Consciousness or external forces, the time required can be greatly reduced. Like in the nearby New Nebulae which contain Lu Chen’s Celestial Consciousness, these were already accelerating the formation of the internal Star Core. Combined with the inadvertent assistance from external forces, the birth speed of newborn Constant Stars increased by thousands of times!

This was also the reason why Lu Chen could end the Supernova Explosion phase so quickly.

With Lu Chen actively participating in the control and acceleration, the Red Giant Star and Supernova Explosion phases, which would normally take hundreds of thousands of years, were completed within a decade. Lu Chen himself had become a bona fide Black Hole!

At this very moment, Lu Chen’s full title should be "Wandering Brother·Earth Guardian·Wandering Alliance Leader·Wanderer·Black Hole·Lu Chen"!
