"What is this?"

After a brief silence in the room, an elder asked.

He couldn't really make out what it was.

It depicts an Imperial warship, but as it progresses to the edge of the Virgo Supercluster, it can't go any further.

Although the front looks normal, there is no obstacle.

And the engines of the battleship are also advancing normally, but they just can't move forward.

This phenomenon is a bit strange even for these elders.

"This happened three days ago, and after discovering the problem, I sent some more warships to try to enter from different directions, but they all failed."

"Today, the entire Virgo supercluster is wrapped in a wall that cannot be seen."

The Fourth Elder shook his head and then said.

In fact, being completely wrapped was just an illusion on his part.

Although in five years, the Federation's Great Wall of Stars project has been more than half completed, it is far from the point of being completely wrapped.

But the Federation is not brainless construction, and half of the current completion is all in the direction of the Silver Light Empire, forming a hemispherical block.

In other words, unless the Silverlight Empire makes a big circle and runs to the other side of the Virgo Supercluster, it is impossible to enter it from any direction.

Because of this, the four elders were given the illusion that the entire Virgo supercluster was completely encased.

"Investigate, investigate immediately, we must find out what the hell is going on!"

"That's right, this kind of strange situation is on the edge of the empire, which is absolutely not allowed!"

"Second, let the Imperial Academy of Sciences organize personnel to conduct a comprehensive investigation!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

There were no objections, and everyone was immediately unanimous.

That's right, something beyond one's own understanding is all around you, and it's absolutely not allowed.

A few days later, several fleets escorted a research ship and set off in different directions.

------

192 years of the new federal calendar.

The Great Wall project was completely completed, and several fleets sent by the Silver Light Empire, as well as a large number of scientific research ships, still failed to break through this barrier.

Of course, there are some eyebrows.

According to the research in the past few years, a sandwich has appeared on the periphery of the entire Virgo supercluster, and the sandwich is filled with a large number of foreign particles, which are not the matter of the universe.

This created a situation where the ship could not pass through.

After all, all the technology of the empire is developed based on the rules of this universe.

But inside the mezzanine, there are completely different rules.

If you want to let the spacecraft pass, it's not impossible, according to the foreign substances in the mezzanine to conduct research, re-develop the technology, and naturally pass.

But this is tantamount to letting the empire start from a primitive civilization and go through the process of civilization promotion and technological development all over again.

It's like a dog.

It's just a supercluster, spending so many resources on the Empire, why can't you do it, you have to do this?

What if you go in?

It's just a wild supercluster with few resources, and it has no value.

As a result, the Imperial Elders immediately recalled all the scientific research ships after confirming this.

There is no need to waste this time any longer.

------

Three hundred years.

Perhaps in the previous perception of human beings, this was an extremely long process.

But for advanced civilizations, or for the universe itself, it is like a moment, and it doesn't have much meaning.

598 in the New Federal Calendar.

Since the Federation broke through the seventh-order civilization more than 200 years ago, it has once again completed the journey of civilization promotion.

Today, the Federation has mastered time technology and has become an eighth-order technological civilization.

Although it is not the top layer of the pyramid in the universe, it is definitely not weak.

In addition, there are too many unique technologies obtained from Lin Fan's side in the science and technology of the Federation, if they encounter a ninth-order civilization, although it cannot be said that they can defeat them across borders, it is also much more resistant than other eighth-order civilizations.

If some extreme means are used, they can even cause a lot of losses to a ninth-order civilization before they are destroyed.

It can be said that even without the protection of the Great Wall of Stars, the Federation already has the power to protect itself in this universe.

After all, none of those ninth-order civilizations wanted to lose too much before the battle for the throne.

Whether it is important to kill an eighth-order civilization, or whether it is important to preserve strength to deal with the battle for the throne, every ninth-order civilization has a spectrum in their hearts.

Therefore, the Federation feels that it is time to go out and declare the existence of the Federation!

You must know that the battle for the throne is about to begin, and once the unconventional eighth-order civilization of the Federation appears, it will inevitably become the object of attraction of the ninth-order civilizations.

By taking advantage of this, the Federation will be able to reap sufficient benefits.

Of course, this is not to say that the Federation is going to completely open the Great Wall of Stars.

Who knows if there will be a civilization that has a hot brain and wants to kill the Federation regardless of casualties?

Therefore, the presidential palace decided to partially untie the mezzanine and send a fleet out, and when the fleet left, the mezzanine canopy in this area was quickly restored.

After that, the military department also held a meeting.

In the end, it was decided to send an Zulong-class cluster with 1 million warships.

Zulong class, this is a warship redesigned by the Federation after reaching level eight.

Compared with the third-generation Fuxi-class battleship used during the seventh-order tacit understanding, it is much stronger.

Until the Ninth Order, the Federation will probably not design any other new warships, but will only continue to improve on the Zulong class.

As for the commanders, it was ...

Duan Haidong!

Duan Xingke and Jiang Yufei's son.

can also be regarded as Jiang Xingchen's grandson.

He currently holds the rank of lieutenant general.

Speaking of Duan Haidonglai, it is also very legendary.

"Commander-in-chief, the key issue is how to avoid the Silver Light Empire!"

"That's right, after all, we're on the edge of the Silverlight Empire, and they're likely to see us as a threat, so it's not suitable for our first contact after crossing the Great Wall."

"That's what I mean, the so-called long-range and close-range attack, even if it is placed in the interstellar era, will definitely not be outdated."

......

A group of high-ranking military officials, at this moment, are constantly discussing which civilization should be contacted first after the fleet leaves.

"Hiltost Federation!"

"Commander-in-Chief?"

"I say, Salttost Federation?"

"It's... Commander-in-chief, this won't be too anxious, after all, the Salttost Federation is one of the three super civilizations. ”

"No, they are the most suitable!"

Shaking his head, Jiang Xingchen said.

"First of all, the Salttost Federation is relatively close to us, only about 1.7 billion light-years."

"Secondly, where they are located, there are only some eighth-order civilizations between them and the Silver Light Empire."

"The most important thing is that you should know why it is also a ninth-order civilization, but the three... The reason why it will be called a super civilization! ”

Know, they know.

Because these three civilizations all support an individual of a ninth-order biological civilization, their comprehensive strength is stronger than that of other ordinary ninth-order civilizations, or much stronger!

Everyone nodded.

"Commander, do you want to..."

"Well, just as you think!"

After hearing Duan Xingke's words, Jiang Xingchen nodded.

"So, Haidong's mission this time is very important, we can not want the territory of the Pastoral Cave at all, but..."

"Laniakea Supercluster, the Federation wants it!"

"And all this depends on Haidong's actions!"
