Wandering Meteor

The Antimatter Domain appeared like an ever-expanding bubblegum, quickly striking the Heavenly Nebula.

The thick giant hydrogen cloud of the Heavenly Nebula was instantly erased from the starry sky under the might of the Antimatter Domain, and as the Antimatter Domain continuously expanded, maintaining a smooth curvature, the part of the Heavenly Nebula that got wiped out formed a circular region of absolute vacuum, devoid of any matter or particles, yet it was wrapped in the outer material of the nebula, resembling a cream-filled cake.

Although this scene seemed peculiar and aesthetically pleasing, it was incredibly dangerous!

The Wandering Alliance, situated at the core of the Heavenly Nebula, watched as the Antimatter Domain swiftly traversed the nebula, approaching them directly. The Wandering Alliance definitely couldn't afford to be careless and promptly launched a rapid response.

The civilizations of Earth and Light Synthesis from within the Wandering Alliance took the initiative to fly out, activating new satellite devices stationed in orbit. Instantly, two massive barriers were projected in front of the Wandering Star System, merging into an even larger barrier that shielded the entire system. The Antimatter Domain collided with the barrier just as it reached the projected defense, yet the otherwise unstoppable domain was forcefully contained. Although the Antimatter Domain was still expanding, it could no longer expand forward and was forced to swell in all other directions—up, down, left, and right.

This signaled the failure of the offensive led by the Anti-molecule Battle Star unit.

Upon witnessing this, the commander of the Battle Star expressed his disbelief in shock: "How is this possible? Have you actually mastered Information Wall technology?"

"Now, you should understand where my confidence came from," Lu Chen of Constant Star did not conceal the truth and straightforwardly revealed the facts. "Your Antimatter Civilization is down to one Battle Star, and that's just one aspect. Our confidence stems more from our foundation and abilities. By observing your war with the Entropy Tree, we have reverse-engineered and mastered Information Wall technology!"

The Wandering Alliance presently needed to shock their opponent, disrupt their stable mindset, and cause them to make mistakes. Only in this way could the Alliance have the opportunity to obliterate the last command Battle Star.

Although the Anti-molecule Battle Star unit was down to its last star, it was the one with the most experience, as evident from its survival through such brutal warfare. While the Wandering Alliance had indeed mastered Information Wall technology and possessed a defensive foundation, the attack weapons of the command Battle Star were far more advanced than those of the Wandering Alliance. The Alliance was still at risk of annihilation during the war. Therefore, the Wandering Alliance had to be extremely cautious and mindful. After all, the current situation was greatly in favor of the Alliance. If they could eliminate the command Battle Star, they could claim all of the materials present. The Alliance certainly didn't want to squander such a good opportunity.

Regarding the reverse engineering mentioned by Lu Chen of Constant Star, it actually involved meticulously observing the Entropy Tree using the Information Wall, and through reverse thinking, deducing the processes and principles step by step. Combined with the Alliance's own research on information theory, it furthered their understanding and application development in information theory.

This was also one of the reasons why the Wandering Alliance decided to shift from overt to covert tactics after seeing that the Entropy Tree could utilize Information Wall technology. Not wanting to abandon the materials on the scene was just one aspect; more importantly, the scientists of the Wandering Alliance realized that if they could reverse-analyze the principles behind the Information Wall technology, it would significantly accelerate their transition into a level five civilization. Thus, with such enticing prospects, the entire membership of the Alliance was willing to risk it all and make a bet.

Moreover, reverse engineering was something of an ancestral skill.

In the ancient times on Earth, before entering a communal system and when technology was not shared, each country treated its advanced technology as prized treasures and would never easily hand them over to others.

Therefore, the less advanced parties would often use reverse engineering to learn advanced technology, with Hua country being particularly outstanding in this regard. It was precisely because of this ample experience that the Wandering Alliance had the courage to carry out the strategy of converting from overt to covert.

This could be seen from various factors.

The decision of the Wandering Alliance was made after multiple analyses of intelligence and was not an act of recklessness.

Of course, not every technology could be reverse-engineered through repeated observations; it also depended on the category.

There were two key factors to consider. First was the level of technological inferiority of the entity attempting the reverse engineering; they couldn't be too far behind, at least not by more than one civilization level. Otherwise, it would be like giving a smartphone to a primitive person who wouldn't know how to use it, let alone how to reverse-engineer it.

The second factor was the details of the relevant technology; you must have detailed information to analyze its principles.

It's like comparing having a smartphone right in front of you versus observing the production and assembly process of its components—the latter provides a more detailed and thorough understanding. The usage scheme of Information Wall technology, designed by the mysterious civilization for the Entropy Tree, happened to include the process of reassembling related equipment. Therefore, every time the Entropy Tree used it, the process was repeated, which meant the Wandering Alliance only needed to film the usage process. Through repeated research and experimentation, they could quickly replicate devices related to Information Wall technology using equivalent Unified Force Technology and implement it.

For instances like the Anti-molecule Battle Star, where the related equipment was pre-installed and lacked any detailed features, even if the Wandering Alliance observed the usage of Information Wall technology, they could not employ reverse engineering.

......

"You Wandering Alliance are truly terrifying, we underestimated you before!"

After receiving the message from Lu Chen of Constant Star, the command Battle Star was greatly shocked. They never expected the Wandering Alliance to be so extraordinary. Had they known earlier, they would have eliminated the Alliance at all costs, realizing now that the threat of the Alliance was much greater than even the Entropy Tree.

It's just too late for regrets now!

Lu Chen of Constant Star said: "Thank you for your compliments. As a token of our gratitude, let's swiftly send you to hell!"

No sooner had the words been spoken than a planet suddenly appeared behind the command Battle Star—it was the Eternal Life Civilization. The Eternal Life Civilization, controlling the Eternal Life Star, launched a surprise attack on the command Battle Star.

This was also one of the follow-up strategies of the Wandering Alliance. They knew that for the present Alliance, it was extremely difficult to annihilate a level five civilization's Battle Star. Thus, the Alliance decided to launch a surprise attack, using their numerical advantage to carry out a Jump Engine assault, attempting to obliterate the command Battle Star before it could recover.

As the Wandering Alliance deployed the Information Wall and executed the surprise attack, the situation on the scene changed drastically, and now it was the command Battle Star that found itself in danger!
