Due to the other party's perfect control of the battleship, Worston's first reaction was that he had encountered a true level-7 civilization.
However, the other party's actions had taken him by surprise.
Placing a hyperdrive interference device?
Was this something a level-7 civilization would do?
Worston complained.
However, this was a little unfair to Carter.
After all, Carter did not know that Worston's fleet would come here to investigate. He had just brought the three planet-level battleships here for training and happened to come here.
He was going to take some energy crystals from the Neutron Battle Star outpost for the battleships to use. After all, Faern had placed a total of 100 zero-point energy crystals here.
However, he did not expect to encounter Worston's fleet as soon as he arrived. This could be considered an encounter.
Even if they had accidentally encountered the Federation's fleet, Carter, who had upgraded his weapons, was not afraid at all. He even had the thought of capturing some Federation soldiers alive to interrogate them.
As a result, the earlier scene occurred.
Why did they place a hyperdrive interference device?
In fact, this was not Carter's fault.
After obtaining the authority, Carter had also checked the database of the battleship and learned the technical standards of level-6 and even level-7 civilizations.
Therefore, according to Carter's logic, the Federation was a level-6 civilization, so there were two ways to exceed the speed of light. One was hyperdrive, and the other was spatial teleportation.
Based on this information, Carter naturally came to the conclusion that if he wanted to stop the other party from escaping, he just had to prevent the other party from hyperdriving.
As for spatial teleportation, it had too many limitations. A spatial teleportation gate had to be built first.
It was obviously impossible to build a spatial teleportation gate in front of the three planet-level battleships. The slightest movement could be done with a single shot. There was no need to worry at all!
However, who would have thought that the Federation not only had the energy technology of a level-7 civilization, but also the hyperspace technology of a level-7 civilization!
There were probably only a few examples of this in the entire universe!
In addition, Worston's fleet had arrived here first, followed by Carter's three battleships. Therefore, Carter did not see the Federation's fleet exit hyperspace at all, so he did not know that the Federation's battleships had hyperspace engines.
At this moment, Worston also discovered some problems.
Just now, his attention was on the three planet-level battleships, but he completely ignored the battleships that were constantly flying out of them.
Now that he took a closer look, he realized that these were the battleships of the Raging Fire Empire.
Furthermore, these were clearly not battleships of a level-4 civilization because these battleships all had space shields activated!
Then there was a problem.
Was it just as Lin Yu had guessed, that the Purple Cloud Empire and the Fire Empire were actually one and the same?
Or was it that the Raging Fire Empire had hidden themselves so well that even the Purple Cloud Empire had not discovered them?
On the surface, it was a level-4 civilization, but in reality, it was a level-5 civilization. It also had three planet-level battleships and suspected to have a neutron battle star.
This civilization is not simple!
"Commander, the hyperspace engines of all warships are ready and can be activated at any time!"
Just as Worston's mind was filled with questions, the adjutant's voice sounded beside him.
"According to the plan, leave the gift behind and inform the entire ship to activate the hyperspace engine and evacuate immediately!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Suddenly, a whirlpool-like channel opened in front of the remaining 97 battleships. All the battleships disappeared into the channel with a whoosh, leaving behind afterimages.
Seeing this scene, Carter was dumbfounded. All the soldiers of the Fire Empire who had already attacked were dumbfounded.
"What … what's going on?"
"Didn't the database say that only level-7 civilizations can use hyperspace technology and create hyperspace engines?"
"But what happened just now? That was a hyperspace window opening. Did I see it wrong?"
In the command center of Battleship No.1, Carter was doubting his life and unconsciously questioned loudly.
The originally stable situation had now ended in such a way. This made it difficult for him to accept for a moment!
Damn it, he had been deceived by the database of this battleship.
If he had known that the other party had the ability to travel through hyperspace, he would not have planned to leave them alive. He would have eliminated them all directly without giving them any time to send a message!
"Your Majesty Carter, there is an unknown device at the location where the human fleet left!"
"Hmm, what is it?"
At this moment, Silver Fox also discovered the gift left by Worston and immediately reported it to Carter.
However, it was a little too late.
Before Silver Fox could answer, a dazzling white light shone in through the porthole of the command center.
Although the porthole of this battleship was built with special technology and could effectively avoid the glare, everyone still could not help but close their eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes again, Carter felt as if he was in hell. Outside the porthole, the entire space was constantly being torn apart, squeezed, and even collapsed. No one or anything could survive in this environment.
Of course, things that did not exist in this environment were naturally unaffected.
Only a few minutes later, all the battleships of the Fire Empire that had attacked were all destroyed without exception!
Even some of the nearby planets and asteroids could not be found intact. It was good enough that there were some fragments of wreckage left!
However, there were three spaceships that were not affected at all. Even though they were in this hell, they were still standing tall and strong!
At this moment, the Phase Shield on the three planet-level battleships perfectly demonstrated the defense method of a level-7 civilization.
Even the tearing, squeezing, and collapsing of the space caused by the Null Bomb could not cause any damage to them.
The three battleships were like three virtual images. The attacks only passed through them and could not attack their actual bodies.
The Phase Shield was a technology that surpassed the probability of space technology.
Simply put, the Phase Shield did not provide any defensive power. Instead, it allowed the entire space within the Phase Shield to be switched to another phase at will.
In the same space but in a different phase, even a space-type attack would not have any effect on the Phase Shield.
It was like placing countless mirrors in space, and the target in front of you might not necessarily be the target's actual body. It might just be an image in one of the mirrors!
Therefore, in this universe, there would usually not be a war between two level-7 civilizations.
This was because everyone had the strongest shield, but no one had the strongest spear. This phenomenon would only change when a civilization reached level-8.
As for the outpost where the neutron warstar was located, it was not affected because it was too far away.
After all, it was only a single Null Bomb, and its power was not as great as the Null Bomb carrier!
