That's it, until Tianren No. 7 sailed out about five hundred light years.
It was also at this time that the space with basically no matter around it suddenly began to change.
The surrounding space has become relatively brighter.
Zhang Heng, who observed this inside Tianren No. 7, immediately went to collect more data on the surrounding space.
In general, although there is still no matter such as dust particles, the existence of photons can be observed.
Even if the number of photons exists, it is still very rare.
But it can also be proven that there is most likely a light source nearby.
According to previous inferences, the stars may have been divided up.
Then these civilizations or forces that own stars will never let the light source of the stars leak out.
It also means that the source of the photons here is unlikely to be emitted by stars.
But the terrible thing is that the source direction of the photon is from the direction of Tianren No. 7...
"Be careful, there may be an unknown civilization ahead..."
Zhang Heng began to remind Yan Dao.
After much thought, he still preferred that Tianren No. 7 was about to enter the territory of an unknown civilization or force.
Or perhaps, a certain civilization just passed by in a spaceship.
These photon information sources were leaked from their spacecraft.
As I said before, although there are many Laoliu outside the Yuan Universe, there are also many low-level civilizations.
Just like the previous civilization of the Triangle, it relies on being attached to a certain alliance or civilization to make a living in the universe outside this metaverse.
It is impossible for a civilization at this level to be able to block all information sources from its own spacecraft like Zhang Heng.
They may not even have the curvature technology to travel at the speed of light.
Therefore, the civilization that may exist ahead will most likely be of this level.
Otherwise, they will not know that the leaked information source will expose their existence.
"Then shall we take a detour?"
Hearing this, Yan frowned and asked.
If you want to reduce the chances of accidents, taking a detour is obviously the best option.
Anyway, no matter what level of civilization may exist ahead, it will not affect you.
However, Zhang Heng had other ideas and was not prepared to take a detour.
"Nilage didn't mention to me at the beginning where the Star Alliance's area is outside the metaverse."
"If we want to find the Star Alliance, we have to rely on ourselves."
"Originally, I planned to wait until I encountered civilizations that were lower than us, and then inquire about information from them."
"Now that we have met them in advance, it's them!"
After Zhang Heng finished speaking, he had already set his sights on the civilization that might exist ahead.
With his current level, plus Yan who has Maya.
If we treat them as a civilization, then their combined strength is already much stronger than that of the singer civilization...
Even the peak strength of Yita's main civilization, which was comparable to the fringe civilization, was not as good as theirs now.
Such hard power can be said without humility; no matter how terrifying it is outside the metaverse, they still have a place.
The civilizations that could be their rivals were definitely in the minority and could not be everywhere.
Therefore, Zhang Heng has no reason to be afraid of the civilization that may exist ahead.
It doesn't even have the ability to block the leakage of its own information sources. No matter how strong such a civilization is, it will not be strong enough to threaten them.
"Then it's up to you!"
Seeing that Zhang Heng had already made his decision, Yan didn't say anything more and directly agreed with Zhang Heng's decision.
In fact, according to her original character, she would not think of taking a detour.
Moreover, she had just received a qualitative improvement, and it was time to expand.
If she hadn't been afraid that Zhang Heng would criticize her for being reckless again, she would have wanted to just rush over from the beginning.
Although angels will not bully the weak, they will not be so holy as to make way for the weak.
In particular, Zhang Heng also said that after going outside the Yuan Universe, one must temporarily abandon human nature.
Then there would be nothing to talk about, and the strong would have no reason to give way to the weak.
Then, under the control of Zhang Heng, Tianren No. 7 began to speed up again.
Although he was sure that the photons he observed came from the front, he could not tell how many light-years away they came from.
After all, theoretically speaking, the existence of a form like light will continue to be transmitted in an absolute vacuum if the problem of absorption is not considered.
The photons he is observing now are the first batch to arrive here from the source.
That is to say, the first ray of light is emitted at the moment the light source shines.
If you want to calculate the specific distance based on observations, you need to collect more photon data information.
Even if it is just a ray of light, its photons are still emitted in the form of a light cone.
And the range of the light cone is so wide, and there is so much time to collect and calculate, it is better to directly accelerate towards the source of the current photon.
Without further ado, after Tianren No. 7 moved forward at ten times the speed of light, it reached the light source in only about a year.
"No wonder the photons observed before were all intermittent. It turns out that the so-called light source exists in this form!"
After arriving at the source of the photons, Zhang Heng was a little surprised.
It turns out that there is not one civilization ahead, but two.
They are at war right now.
The spacecraft that was hit by both warring parties was not like what was shown in science fiction movies; there was a huge explosion, a spreading fireball, debris flying everywhere, the spacecraft disintegrated, and a pile of scrap metal was left.
In fact, any spacecraft hit by enemy weapons simply disintegrates.
The light source is the light wave strike weapon they use to shoot back and forth at each other.
These light wave strike weapons, with their rapid speed, hit the enemy's spacecraft instantly.
After the strike, the light waves emitted by the strike did not disappear from the visual field of view with the naked eye as the spacecraft disintegrated.
Instead, it continues to exist at its original speed for a long distance.
Although the light will not disappear, it will attenuate.
This is why Zhang Heng can only observe photons 10 light years away.
Preliminary estimates indicate that the effective range of the light wave strike weapons on both sides should be within one or two light years.
Beyond this distance, the light waves will attenuate infinitely until they exist in the form of individual photons.
The two civilizations currently at war, as well as the scale of the war, would be considered very large if placed in a metaverse.
After all, if it can spread to one or two light years, it is enough to destroy a star system.
The Trisolaran Galaxy that once existed in the Trisolaran Universe was only about 4 light years away from the Earth!
If they fight between these two galaxies, they can directly affect the two galaxies.
Moreover, just the type of light wave strike weapons they use are extremely destructive.
"Don't they...don't know how to avoid enemy fire?"
"The spaceships on both sides only stay in one area and don't keep moving. They just shoot at each other?"
After observing the ongoing battlefield between the two civilizations for a while, Yan asked.
how to say!
It's a bit like queuing up and shooting at the end of the 10th century in Western civilization on earth.
After the spacecraft in the front row were destroyed, the spaceships in the back row were on top, and they started shooting at each other...
"This is indeed a unique interstellar war!"
Not to mention that Yan couldn't understand, even Zhang Heng couldn't figure out why they wanted to fight in this way.
It's already an interstellar war, do we still need to consider formations?
However, after observing for a while, Zhang Heng roughly understood what was going on.
First of all, neither of the two sides fighting has the ability to move at the speed of light, and the distance between the two sides is no more than one astronomical unit.
Secondly, the strike capabilities of both of them are not directly proportional to their own defense capabilities.
After understanding these two points, it is not difficult to understand why they line up to be shot.
It’s not that they don’t want to avoid it, but where should they avoid it?
Not having the ability to move at the speed of light, and being so close, means that they cannot avoid the opponent's blow at all.
Therefore, the only way to form a formation with spaceships is to use the outer spacecraft to attack the enemy while also acting as a bunker for the inner spacecraft, consuming the power of the enemy's weapons to a certain extent.
It's not like they will all be destroyed by the enemy in one fell swoop.
After all, light will attenuate, and so will light wave strike weapons.
After destroying the first spaceship, even if you can continue to destroy the second and third spacecraft, the power of the light wave strike weapon will decay faster with each additional spacecraft destroyed.
Once you reach the spaceship behind the fifth one, you will have no worries at all.
All you have to do is wait for the spaceship in front to be destroyed by enemy fire, and then jump on top.
Or perhaps, our own firepower was stronger than the enemy's, and before it was our turn to take the field, the front row spaceship annihilated the enemy.
To put it bluntly, the war between these two civilizations is about whose firepower is more powerful and lasting.
"However, judging from the evenly matched military strength of the two civilizations, both sides will suffer in the end."
Understanding is all about understanding their form of war, but Zhang Heng is still not optimistic about such a form of war: "Even if there is a winner in the end, it will be a tragic victory."
Zhang Heng made considerable comments.
At the same time, I also feel that this form of war should not be the mainstream war mode outside the metaverse.
The current war between two civilizations should be just a special case.
Under normal circumstances, two hostile civilizations would not be so close to each other.
Less than one astronomical unit, what is the concept?
Just like the distance between the sun and the earth is even closer, there are two civilizations, and these two civilizations are still hostile.
Is this possible?
Therefore, Zhang Heng felt that the two civilizations were originally friendly, but they suddenly conflicted.
And this war is also a sudden war.
Since it was a sudden war, they could only choose an optimal strategy among various bad strategies.
That's lining up to be shot.
"Are we going to intervene then?"
Yan asked again.
She felt that since Zhang Heng came with a purpose, he probably didn't want them to lose both sides so quickly.
At least, Zhang Heng will ignore them only after Zhang Heng squeezes out all the value.
"I'll do it myself!"
After suppressing Yan's eagerness to try, Zhang Heng left Tianren No. 7 directly.
Then, he took out a slightly smaller version of the Blackwater from the small universe.
As early as in the Supergod Universe, he had equipped all the affiliated civilizations under his command with small Blackwater ships like this.
All functions are the same as those of the large Blackwater.
After boarding the small Blackwater, Zhang Heng blatantly drove the small Blackwater directly into the center of the confrontation between the two civilizations.
Such behavior will of course inevitably result in indiscriminate attacks from both sides at the same time.
However, a blow of this magnitude alone cannot break the bastard shell of the small Blackwater.
Although the strong interaction material was only produced by the Trisolaran civilization, a civilization of this level.
However, without specific methods, the Trisolaran civilization itself cannot directly destroy the defense of strong interaction materials from the outside.
Moreover, not every civilization of this level can develop similar technologies at the same time.
After all, the Trisolaran civilization can be regarded as an outstanding one in the Trisolaran universe.
Although the Trisolarans can only bully the earth in their early stage, their potential and creativity cannot be denied.
In the extreme environment of the Trisolaran Galaxy, the destruction and restart of civilizations one after another has already stimulated the potential and creativity of the Trisolaran people to the extreme.
Strictly speaking, neither sophons nor water droplets should be produced by a civilization at the level of the Trisolarans.
However, these two things were really made out by them!
Therefore, compared to other civilizations of the same level that live in a comfortable environment, the Trisolarans are undoubtedly ahead in cutting-edge technology.
Take the two civilizations fighting in front of us as an example. They can be regarded as barely at the level of the Trisolarans, and so can the Trisolarans.
However, no matter the two civilizations in front of us or the triangle, they can't produce sophons and water drops.
This is where the Trisolarans are ahead of and stronger than other civilizations of the same level.
Just like Zhang Heng's current spacecraft built only with strong interaction materials, the two civilizations in front of him cannot break through the defense at all.
After the small Blackwater broke into the war zone between the two civilizations, they immediately discovered the existence of the small Blackwater.
However, before they could react, Zhang Heng started to complain.
"Which civilization are you from? Why did you attack my spaceship for no reason?"
"If we don't give an explanation, none of you will be able to leave..."
Zhang Heng directly sent information like this to the two civilizations in cosmic Mandarin.
That's right, he just wants to turn passivity into initiative.
If he wants to get the information he wants from the two civilizations, he must use strong methods.
However, doesn’t it look like bullying to find trouble for no reason?
It would be different if the opponent attacked him first.
As he said, no one can leave without giving an explanation.
