Mobile City Farming Guide

Chapter 393 Dimensional Power! (4K)

“It’s so beautiful,” Li Ye exclaimed.

This device doesn't resemble a means of transportation; it's more like a large and sophisticated mathematical instrument.

Only then did he realize that in addition to the functional descriptions, the design drawings also contained dozens of densely packed lines of text.

"What are these?"

After carefully reading the contents, his expression became serious.

Dimensional travel can bring enormous benefits, but it also comes at a huge cost.

First, whether traveling to lower or higher dimensions, mobile cities will experience the most extreme spatial structural stresses, leading to accelerated metal fatigue, microscopic cracks at weld points, and misalignment of various instruments. Therefore, large-scale structural scanning and maintenance after each journey are essential.

Second, dimensional travel will consume massive amounts of resources. According to Novi's estimates, the resources required to fill the dimensional travel device to 100% energy are enough to build five space fleets.

Third, beings that traverse dimensions will suffer intense physical and mental torment, such as severe vomiting, dizziness, disorientation of spacetime perception, irreversible nerve damage and premature aging, as well as cognitive confusion and deep depression.

Fourth, each dimensional traversal will cause the moving city and all objects inside it to undergo irreversible dimensionalization, even the microcosm.

Dimensionality will gradually accumulate with each trip, eventually reaching a point where it cannot be reversed.

In other words, with each journey, everyone takes a step further away from the familiar three-dimensional universe.

In short, for cosmic civilizations, dimensional travel is a powerful but double-edged weapon of doomsday.

The strategic capabilities it provides come at a great cost.

"I never imagined that the cost of dimensional travel would be so high," Li Ye mused.

That being said, it is necessary for the Tomorrow Alliance to fully master this weapon.

"Novi, can you calculate the maximum number of times dimensional travel can be used?" he asked.

Novie immediately provided the calculation answer.

If calculated as a percentage, the limit of biological tolerance to dimensionalization is 60%.

Once it exceeds 60%, it becomes completely irreversible.

Starting from normal three-dimensional space, with 1% as the base value, the percentage for traveling to four-dimensional space is 2%, the percentage for traveling from four-dimensional space to five-dimensional space is 4%, the percentage for six-dimensional space is 8%, and the percentage for seven-dimensional space is 16%.

If the dimension is reduced to two dimensions, it is 0.5%; if it is one dimension, it is 0.25%; and if it is zero dimension, it is 0.125%.

If you want to recover from the high-dimensional/low-dimensional space to the normal three-dimensional space, you need to perform dimensionality reduction and dimensionality increase in sequence.

Taking the reduction from seven dimensions to three dimensions as an example, the dimension values ​​need to be increased by 8%, 4%, and 2% respectively.

Taking the upgrade from zero-dimensional to three-dimensional as an example, the dimension value needs to be increased by 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1% respectively.

"Upgrading to a higher dimension doubles the effect, while downgrading to a lower dimension reduces it by a factor of two?" Li Ye's eyes flickered. "I see."

If you upgrade from three dimensions to seven dimensions, the cumulative dimension value will increase by a full 30%.

Being in such a high dimension is tantamount to being invincible. Everything in the sixth dimension and below would be completely visible—however, given the dimensional library theory, such a massive flow of information is simply impossible to process.

Returning from seven dimensions to three dimensions requires adding a full 14% to the dimensional value.

Over time, the dimensional value accumulated to 44.

Thinking of this, Li Ye couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly.

The cost of ascending to higher dimensions is getting higher with each level.

In comparison, reducing to a lower dimension is much more cost-effective, even if it is restored to the accumulated dimensional value of three dimensions, the dimensional value is very small.

“The most cost-effective way is to upgrade to the fourth dimension,” Novi reminded. “The dimensional value accumulated per round trip is only 3%, which is enough for you to travel twenty times.”

“You’re absolutely right,” Li Ye nodded.

After pondering for a moment, he had another idea.

Although the cost of dimensional travel is enormous, could the Tomorrow Alliance research a Level 7 city device that can reset its own dimensional value to zero?

When he proposed the idea, Novi immediately rejected it and gave an explanation.

The dimension value cannot be cleared to zero.

Because dimensionalization is not a disease or a state, but an irreversible process of increasing entropy.

It transforms a highly ordered, purely three-dimensional structure into a more complex and chaotic state that mixes low-dimensional and high-dimensional information.

To give an analogy, it's like dropping a drop of ink into clear water. You can drop it precisely (i.e., dimensional travel), but if you want to completely retrieve all the ink molecules and restore the water to absolute clarity (even if its own dimensional value is reduced to zero), the energy and precision required for control will approach infinity.

In practice, this is impossible. Dimensionalization is this drop of "high-dimensional ink," which has irreversibly mixed with the fleet's "body water."

"Is that so?"

After careful consideration, Li Ye decided to try traveling to four-dimensional space.

First, the construction of the four cosmic domains in four-dimensional space is extremely convenient and quick.

Secondly, the Tomorrow Alliance needs to adapt to dimensional travel in advance.

Li Ye immediately invested resources to create a dimensional travel device—compared to its terrifying performance, the cost of its creation was completely negligible.

In fact, this is true of all high-tech devices. When disassembled, they are at most a collection of parts and pipes, but the construction of the finished product requires thousands of years of theoretical knowledge and the research passed down from generation to generation.

With Li Ye's order, the Tomorrow Alliance forces that had been deployed outside gradually returned to the Tomorrow.

Once assembled, the Tomorrow Alliance began its ascension to a higher level.

There was no roaring engine noise, nor blinding light tearing through space. Instead, there was a suffocating, absolute silence, as if the universe itself had pressed the mute button.

Immediately afterwards, a high-frequency buzzing sound came from all directions.

The starry sky region where the Tomorrow Alliance was located began to stretch and twist rapidly, melting into a surging ocean of colorful energy.

This is not a simple visual distortion, but rather the "skin" of the three-dimensional universe being torn open.

An infinitely complex spacetime structure then surged forth before everyone's eyes.

Li Ye felt that the concept of "direction" had completely failed.

The concepts of "up," "down," "left," and "right" shattered completely like fragile glass.

In the room he was in, every wall and every deck simultaneously became both the floor and the ceiling. He felt himself falling downwards and floating upwards at the same time, his five senses extending infinitely in countless directions.

It felt like eternity had passed, yet it also felt like only a moment.

When he came to his senses, the once boiling starry ocean currents had condensed back into familiar specks of light.

Colonial domain, transportation domain, high-risk domain, resource domain
At this moment, the scenes of the four cosmic domains are laid bare before Li Ye.

He could see the planetary cluster that Zhou Xing and his team had only half-built in the colony domain, the numerous refugee groups rampantly stealing resources in the resource domain, and the space pirate group's base hiding in the high-risk domain.

"So their base was hidden inside that rocky planet!" Fang Yong gritted his teeth. "Old Yang and I have gone to great lengths to find them this month."

"So there are so many Earth-like planets in the resource domain?" Zhou Xing exclaimed in surprise. "Wow, I can see them all clearly now!"

The Tomorrow Alliance is now fully situated in four-dimensional space.

If people are willing, they can see the hundreds of thousands of cosmic domains in the entire Cologne Galaxy.

But humans are fragile creatures after all, and their perception and mental structure cannot do this. At most, they can only observe a dozen or so cosmic domains at the same time.

At the same time, Li Ye also felt dizzy and even nauseous. He instantly realized that this was a biological symptom caused by dimensional travel.

Novi reminded him that after the dimensional travel, the damage level of all mobile cities in Tomorrow Alliance was 17%.

"Begin the inspection and troubleshooting work immediately," Li Ye ordered.

After carefully observing the 3D map in front of him, he thought for a moment and then spoke.

"Let's take down that space pirate crew."

After nodding, Fang Yong raised his doubts.

Currently, everyone is located in the traffic zone where Tomorrow is located, which is actually quite far from the high-risk zone, so long-range attacks probably cannot reach it.

Li Ye shook his head.

“Don’t forget, we’re in four-dimensional space now,” he said softly. “As for the specific manipulation process… Novi, that’s up to you.”

"Ok."

Under Novi's guidance, the Iron Whale, located in four-dimensional space, activated its gravitational wave controller and targeted the planet where the space pirate group's base was located.

The attack arrived almost instantly upon activation.

Before the space pirates could react, their base and planet completely disintegrated.

Completely unable to react, they let out terrified screams before vanishing into thin air.

Within seconds, Fang Yong easily dealt with the enemy who had been troubling him and Yang Zheng for days.

On the other side, Lin Wu commanded the Starship to activate the gravitational wave controller and began a large-scale cleanup of the numerous refugee groups in the resource domain.

For these forces, what was happening in the resource domain was simply unbelievable.

First, the stars began to twinkle, sending a warning signal that "you must leave."

Then they were subjected to countless precise gravitational attacks, and their every move, even their counterattacks, would be completely observed.

A space fleet collapsed completely without any reason, the bodies of hundreds of alien beasts suddenly shattered, and the planetary mining equipment that was under construction was instantly destroyed from the inside out.
Ultimately, one civilization was the first to react.

"The enemy is attacking us in four-dimensional space! They have mastered dimensional travel!"

In an instant, all the refugee forces fled the resource zone in a huff.

Considering that they were refugees from the Dagon system and that the Tomorrow Alliance was currently cooperating with the government, Li Ye did not exterminate them, but only let Lin Wu teach them a lesson.

Zhou Xing, eager to get started, ordered the three mobile cities to activate their gravity devices and begin transporting Earth-like planets from the resource domain.

With the help of higher dimensions, the environmental transformation of rocky planets has become much easier.

Li Ye also resumed his work.

Whether it's interstellar orbit, light-speed orbit, or stargate, it's all become much easier.

Located in four-dimensional space, he seemed to have a god-like perspective, able to see everything.

During the construction process, he suddenly realized something and immediately spoke up.

"Novi, record the dimensional values ​​we have accumulated so far. Not only today, but every time the Tomorrow Alliance conducts a dimensional traversal in the future, you must record them truthfully and report them to me once."

"receive."

Through the power of dimensions, the Tomorrow Alliance smoothly completed the construction of four cosmic domains and returned to three-dimensional space by reducing dimensions.

Upon learning the news, KS16 came to inspect the equipment with some skepticism.

"You guys are moving way too fast! You know, most civilizations have only just started construction!" he exclaimed in astonishment.

Li Ye simply smiled and said nothing more.

Tomorrow Alliance has thus completed its construction contract.

"Since you're moving so fast, would you like to take on a few more space-domain engineering projects?" KS17 asked tentatively.

Li Ye gently shook his head.

One experience with this kind of engineering construction is enough; repeating it would become boring.

He couldn't help but start making plans.

In the past month or so, not only has the engineering construction in the cosmic domain been progressing, but the expansion plan and research and development upgrade work of the Tomorrow Alliance have also been steadily advancing.

Especially after entering the fourth dimension, the Tomorrow Alliance, with its God-like vision, mined a large amount of resources in the four cosmic domains.

Today, the combat forces of the Tomorrow Alliance have expanded to the following size.

Three space fleets.

Two mobile city combat clusters.

One space war star.

A fully equipped Level 7 special forces unit.

One land combat group.

One naval combat group.

Although we are still far from our target, we have already done quite well.

Thinking of this, Li Ye couldn't help but rub his hands together in anticipation.

This configuration, along with the Level 7 Iron Curtain, Level 7 Space Jump Device, and Level 7 Dimensional Shuttle Device, is more than enough to allow the Tomorrow Alliance to make its mark.

KS16, who was standing next to him, looked somewhat worried.

Li Ye naturally understood the reason, because the battle between the Dagon system authorities and the Dark Shadow Alliance was not going smoothly—in the past month or so, the intelligence had been updated several times, including some battle reports about the Dagon system.

Just then, he suddenly had an idea.

"Can the Alliance of Tomorrow participate in this interstellar war?"

Not only to hone the combat forces of the Tomorrow Alliance, but also to experience the true strength of the main force of the Dark Shadow Alliance.

Upon learning of Li Ye's intention, KS16 was stunned.

“Of course. The authorities in the Dagon system would very much like your support,” he said.

From the perspective of the Dagon system's officials, the Tomorrow Alliance is considered a "mercenary" force that needs to be compensated.

"So what do you want?" KS16 asked. "Same as engineering projects, resources, money, technology—anything reasonable can be paid to you. If you fight bravely, there will even be generous rewards."

Li Ye fell into deep thought for a moment.

Soon, he had an idea.

"Could you provide me with theoretical knowledge and experimental data on time travel? As a high-tech galaxy, the Dagon Galaxy should have mastered time travel technology, right?"

Upon hearing this, KS16's face showed a subtle expression.

"I must say, you really have a good eye for choosing," he said sincerely.
