Chapter 53 Unlimited Resource Consumption

On the star map system.

The central star system of the galactic core, which had only been partially explored by Federation ships, was instantly transformed into a brightly lit area.

It was only then that Hydra was surprised to discover that the star field, which should have been chaotic, had been reorganized and planned in an unimaginable way by the "Eternal Empire".

Countless star systems have deviated from their original planned trajectories, and all star systems within the central star field of the galactic center are now neatly divided into a hexagon.

Using this hexagon as a matrix, the "Eternal Empire" established a vast star system defense system, but this defense system has become increasingly corrupt.

This defense system has not been well maintained for hundreds of thousands or even millions of years.

But now, after the first clash with the Federation fleet, the entire "Eternal Empire" has become active, and that dimensional membrane can no longer completely block the Federation's sentinel array from penetrating information.

Numerous urgent signals were frequently transmitted in the central star system of the galactic center, indicating that the opposing civilization had also taken full notice of the threat posed by the "Human Federation".

The other side is also actively preparing for battle!

But the current "Eternal Empire" is like an old, frail giant on its deathbed.

Even if it still looks imposing and formidable, the decaying aura that has been weathered by time cannot be eradicated from the other civilization in a short period of time.

On the capital of the opposing civilization, "Eondia of the Birch World," a psionic signal source visible only to citizens of the Federation was displayed in a highly conspicuous manner.

Chen Yu's meaning was very clear: there was an important device on the territory of the other civilization that the Federation needed to reclaim.

But why... use the word "reclaim" to assign this mission?

Beside Hidra, Graywind looked at the signal source, his eyes, as vast as the ocean, revealing a resolute expression.

She didn't think too much about it; she just wanted to carry out the task Chen Yu had given her.

"Immediately notify the entire Federation fleet to declare war on the 'Eternal Empire'!"

"Retrieve that 'device' designated by the Grand Marshal!"

Hydra immediately responded by making subtle, localized strategic adjustments to the Galactic Expedition Plan.

Countless Federation ships, summoned by the strategic command center, began to assemble in a massive formation, preparing to launch a large-scale attack on the central star system of the galactic heart, where the "Eternal Empire" was located.

"For the Federation's manifest destiny, and for the Grand Marshal, we must achieve a complete and utter victory in this war!"

Graywind, Hydra, and several technicians who needed to constantly monitor the "maintenance device" bowed in unison to the figure on the throne:

"Please wait for now, Grand Marshal!"

……

On the other side, in the central star region of the galactic center.

Birch World, Eondia Part 1.

Rapid fluctuations of psionic energy surged across the vast and boundless world.

Under the distortion of psionic energy, a vast database was instantly created.

Just as the "Human Federation" established the "Eternal Intelligence Bureau" to observe and collect intelligence on the "Eternal Empire".

The "Eternal Empire" has also established a database to deal with the threat from the "Human Federation".

Within this database, a special psionic synthesis diplomacy unit has been set up as the external interface, which is named "Eternal Pioneers".

"Analyzing the recipient's social and intellectual development status—"

"The recipient has been confirmed as the 'Human Federation.' Data comparison indicates this civilization is extremely dangerous!!"

"We have received a war treaty from the opposing civilization—"

"This agreement cannot be refused; it contains mandatory enforcement clauses!!"

"According to the 'Eternal Agreement,' the 'Eternal People' should not be subject to any external interference, and under no circumstances should external civilizations interfere in Eternal affairs..."

"In accordance with the above agreement, a war response is being initiated. The large-scale maintenance matrix has been reactivated, and war facilities are receiving war commands..."

"Anyone who dares to violate the eternal domain will be punished by the gods!"

Under the control of the "Eternal Forerunner", another synthetic unit called the "Eternal Ruler" was activated.

Using their authority, they began to lead and wage this war in the name of the "Eternal Empire".

Within the territory of the "Eternal Empire," super-megastructures in star systems that had been dormant for countless years were being reactivated.

Some mega-structures are so severely decayed that they cannot be started, and it will take at least two or three years to maintain and repair them.

However, some megastructures have managed to enter a stable working state.

Thus, the "Eternal Ruler" issued orders to launch intergalactic strike weapons at the borders of the "Human Federation".

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The "Human Federation" acted quickly, having already begun deploying the "Falling Star Spear" for probing attacks.

The latest novel is first published here!

Within the Federation's territory, nearly 50,000 "Falling Star Spears" now stand, unleashing devastating torrents that have descended upon the "Eternal Empire's" territory.

Meanwhile, the "Eternal Empire's" intergalactic strike weapons also launched a considerable-scale attack on the Federation's territory.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

The "Celestial Shield" has entered a full defense mode, and the entire star system within every federal territory is under absolute protection.

Those intergalactic attacks that descended upon the Federation's territory were neutralized by the "Shelter Ring" of the "Celestial Shield".

However, the attack unleashed by 50,000 "Falling Star Spears" also vanished immediately after tearing through the dimensional membrane and descending upon the territory of the "Eternal Empire".

The star chart system shows that neither of the two star systems has been found to have been destroyed in this clash!

The fleets of both civilizations have not yet been fully assembled, but their intergalactic strike weapons have already determined the winner in their first clash.

They are evenly matched, at least on the surface.

Is that all?

Of course not, this is just a small, unassuming appetizer.

For a long period afterward, interstellar strike weapons within both sides' territories will continuously launch attacks on each other's civilizations until the opposing civilization is completely defeated.

The "Shelter Ring" of the "Celestial Shield," which had been destroyed by interstellar strike weapons, was urgently repaired thanks to the Federation's powerful engineering capabilities.

The "Eternal Empire" likely has a similar response.

Intergalactic strike weapons require enormous amounts of energy to unleash their attacks, and repairing the "bunker rings" requires massive amounts of resources.

Such expenditures, in the context of a protracted war, would require virtually unlimited subsequent investment!

Theoretically speaking, this kind of attrition between the two civilizations is meaningless, because in terms of technology, both sides have methods for obtaining what is similar to perpetual energy and resources.

All the energy and resources we have are ultimately consumed.

For two dominant civilizations of terrifying size, the unlimited consumption of energy and resources is nothing more than a series of cold, hard numbers.

Neither side cares about how terrifying the numbers will eventually become.

This means that no matter how much intergalactic attack and attrition is carried out, it will not have a decisive effect on the war between the two civilizations.
