Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

"How is the situation on the battlefield?"

After a moment of silence, Lu Yongchang asked again: "I mean, what are the chances of human civilization winning?"

Hearing this, Zhao Zijie couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.

"Not very big."

"The model deduction shows that even if the pastoral faction's five-dimensional creature does not take action, within thirty years, the winning rate of human civilization and the neutral faction will gradually drop to 40%."

"Unless there is a breakthrough in tachyon computer technology at the hundred-light-year level."

"How could this happen?" Lu Yongchang was stunned and looked at Zhao Zijie in surprise, "Isn't the size of the human fleet always growing?"

Zhao Zijie spread his hands and said helplessly: "Yes, our strength is indeed growing, but you seem to have forgotten that the neutral faction has suffered the most losses in this war."

"According to incomplete statistics, from the beginning of the war to now, the neutrals have lost 50 billion warships."

"Although we have shared dimensionality-raising and dimensionality-reducing technologies with all neutral civilizations,..."

"Few civilizations can 'digest' these two cutting-edge technologies on the way to war."

Lu Yongchang sighed softly.

Yes, not all civilizations are like human civilization.

"What about thirty years from now?"

Zhao Zijie's somewhat stiff face finally showed a faint smile: "That will be different."

"Thanks to the increase in fleet size, the winning rate of human civilization will continue to increase until it is close to 80%."

"The remaining 20% ​​is mainly due to the variable of pastoral five-dimensional creatures."

"Since we don't know how powerful five-dimensional creatures are, this estimate is definitely inaccurate."

"On the other hand..." Zhao Zijie hesitated for a moment and said hesitantly, "The Sweepers are dispatching fleets from all over the universe to support the Shapley Super Galaxy Cluster. It is very likely that we will not survive thirty years from now."

Lu Yongchang thoughtfully reached out and opened a holographic projection.

In the projection, a real-time image of this cosmic bubble is shown - the cosmic bubble observation device is installed on the [Earth].

Looking at the huge shadow still at the bottom of the cosmic bubble, Lu Yongchang suddenly frowned.

The risk is not terrible.

The scary thing is the unknown risk.

The deterrent power of the five-dimensional creatures hiding at the bottom of the cosmic bubble is far greater than the five-dimensional creatures on the frontal battlefield!

He whispered to himself: "It seems that the pastoralist's annihilation plan has reached a critical stage."

Zhao Zijie didn't speak, just stood aside and waited quietly.

After a brief reflection, Lu Yongchang withdrew his gaze and looked at Zhao Zijie beside him again: "So, the top priority now is to delay the war?"

"yes."

Zhao Zijie looked serious and nodded in response.

Lu Yongchang didn't speak, he just looked at the star map in front of him silently, as if thinking about something.

"What if...we send a fleet to harass the Sweeper civilization's ring-cosmic accelerator?"

"This plan has been proposed a long time ago." Zhao Zijie sighed tiredly, "But the problem lies here."

"Currently, the neutral faction has begun to decline, and they no longer have the extra strength to complete this arduous task."

"Let alone sneak attacks, the current neutral faction is having a hard time on the frontal battlefield."

"In order to ensure the stability of the frontal battlefield, we can only be forced to invest all newly produced warships."

"This has also caused our fleet growth to begin to slow down."

"This is like a vicious death spiral. Without a large number of reinforcements, this death spiral will drag us into the abyss sooner or later."

Zhao Zijie raised his hand and rubbed his brow gently: "As I said before, the continuous reinforcements of the Sweepers are enough to defeat our allies within thirty years, and soon after, it may be us."

"Who says we don't have reinforcements?"

After a brief silence, Lu Yongchang's voice broke the silence in the command center.

Zhao Zijie cast an extremely surprised look at Lu Yongchang.

"reinforce?"

"Who else can give us reinforcements at this time?!"

Lu Yongchang smiled meaningfully.

"Have you forgotten the Forsaken Zerg we sent earlier?"

…

Supercluster of galaxies surrounding the Boötes void.

In the edge galaxies of these super-clusters, a huge number of Forsaken Zerg are "foraging" between galaxies in groups.

Compared with the original Forsaken Giant Insect, the current Forsaken Zerg has undergone considerable changes.

Thanks to the transformation of the Zerg genetic engineering project of the Academy of Humanities, the average size of the Zerg has skyrocketed from five meters to more than 20 meters.

The arthropod-like body that resembles a centipede is covered with a layer of strong mechanical exoskeleton armor.

The armor is equipped with powerful weapons - dark matter cannons, gravity bombs, plasma cannons...

Driven by instinct and orders from their mother's nest, they wander toward the resource-rich star system.

Stars will be their energy source.

The planets will be transformed into their compatriots by the mother nest!

Behind them, a planet that resembled a planetary fortress was flying rapidly.

A huge number of Forsaken Giant Insects are flying around the planet, like ship-based drones flying around a battleship.

This is the mother nest of the Forsaken Zerg.

It is said to be a mother nest, but in fact it is completely different from the Zerg mother nest in the traditional sense.

The Forsaken Giant Insect Breeding and Transformation Base, this is the full name of the Mother Nest.

As the name of the mother nest suggests, it can not only hatch the Lost Giant Worms at a very fast speed, but also wear mechanical exoskeleton armor for the Lost Giant Worms with its internal automated mechanical devices.

It even integrates the function of an arsenal to a certain extent!

It is no exaggeration to say that a mother nest is actually equivalent to a mobile full-function space factory!

Because its manufacturing precision requirements are not high, these mother nests even have the ability to self-replicate.

What's more wonderful is that these Lost Giant Worms have a certain degree of intelligence.

It doesn't even require zero-consumption computing power to control it!

In the past 100 years, these Lost Giant Worms, under the command of [Nus], have quietly expanded their territory to more than a dozen super galaxy clusters!

The scale of the swarm has also reached an astonishing astronomical figure!

Although the number is huge, its combat power is actually not high-with the help of mechanical exoskeletons, they can only bully level 7 and level 6 civilizations at most.

Not to mention the top level eight civilizations, even the most ordinary level eight civilizations that have not yet mastered dimensional technology can easily deal with these artificially created Zerg.
