The Ultimate Command system was largely left behind by Bai Ge. The only one who changed it was the Emperor.
Unlike the original Empress, Zero Kills was qualified to bring the Empire to destruction and use his own selfishness to cover the Empire's interests.
Of course, this was only what he could do. Zero Kills would not want to do this. The Lan Bai Society would also carry out macro-control.
The so-called Sovereign Society was at the root of the Ultimate Command. Joining the Lan Bai Society's guiding position could directly and forcefully correct the Emperor's behavior.
It was the dual core values of the Empire and the Lan Bai Society.
In fact, there were no changes on the surface of the Empire. Everything would still operate as usual. The Emperor controlled the Empire, and the Lan Bai Society controlled the Emperor.
Most of the time, the Lan Bai Society would not interfere with the Empire. This change only changed the Emperor's shackles to the Lan Bai Society.
The Lan Bai Society ordered Zero Kills not to harm Earth no matter what. For the Empire, the safety of Earth was the bottom line for the continuation of their race.
This was like a supreme program, but this program was not naturally derived from the Empire for itself.
Zero Kills was powerless to change this. This was the Ultimate Command.
"So you can actually tamper with the Ultimate Command. From the beginning, you planned to use this method to control the Empire," Zero Kills said dejectedly.
Bai Ge said, "As a civilization that is about to be destroyed, what is there to be dissatisfied about being able to continue?"
Zero Kills smiled bitterly and said, "Survival is a basic need. For the continuation of the race, a change in the system is not unacceptable. Then, for the Empire that is already considered a vassal, you will definitely do your best to help it through the current difficulties, right? "
Bai Ge nodded and said, "Of course, now we are truly on the same side."
"The first step is to drive the Immortal Arm civilization out of Orion's Spiral Arm and restore the Empire's homeland."
"The second step is to destroy the Immortal Arm civilization and obtain their technology."
"The third step is for the Empire to completely annex that civilization."
Zero Kills was stunned. None of these three steps were easy to accomplish.
However, he knew that once the war began, one side was bound to be destroyed. Since he did not want the Empire to be destroyed, he had to destroy the other side.
"Then, first of all, we have to obtain the other side's language and use the Book of Axioms to tamper with it. However, this is actually similar in difficulty to directly obtain the other side's technology. In a non-contact battle in space, if you want to obtain a complete enemy creation or capture an enemy alive, you will have to pay a huge price, "Zero Kills said.
"That's right. If they were targeting the enemy's fleet, all kinds of destructive attacks would have been launched before I even got close. Even if I managed to neutralize them one by one, the enemy would still have enough time to use a suicidal move," Bai Ge said.
Zero Kills asked, "That's right. So what do we do?"
"But as long as an individual is strong enough, they won't have a chance to escape or self-destruct," Bai Ge said.
"Eh …" Zero Kills was surprised. To do such a thing was simply too difficult.
Right now, the Empire's forces were barely able to resist on their own territory. This was because the Orion Spiral Arm had been operated by the Empire for tens of thousands of years, and there were weapons everywhere.
Especially at the edge of Orion's spiral arm, there were many hidden devices.
Relying on the geographical advantage, as long as any non-imperial creations entered Orion's spiral arm, they would be quickly discovered and immediately attacked.
It was not hard to imagine how powerful the fleet of the Perseus Arm civilization was.
Perhaps Bai Ge's Mechanical Enemy glasses could restrain them, but the enemy could discover them from a long distance away, and Mechanical Enemy could not destroy the other weapons carried inside.
"The Empire can help you lock onto the enemy's position, detect the distribution of all the enemy's weapons, and even attract firepower for your actions, but … that's all. The Empire's disadvantage against the enemy is that the enemy can neutralize our Great Rip. Also, they have harder materials to resist our accelerated particle cannons, "Zero Kills said.
After obtaining the knowledge of the Emperor, Bai Ge was well aware of the Empire's disadvantage.
The enemy's field of operation was more microscopic than the Empire's. Even if they had not completely stepped into the level of elementary particles, just being microscopic was already a huge advantage.
This meant that the Perseus Arm civilization could detect the Empire's attack one step ahead of time, and even neutralize a small Great Rip directly.
This meant that if the Empire wanted to achieve their strategic goal, they would have to invest ten times or even a hundred times more resources to strengthen the effect of the Great Rip. However, this way, the preparation time would be extended, and the enemy would always have a chance to escape. At the very least, they would be able to preserve their main force.
Also, because they were more microscopic, the enemy's productivity was higher than the Empire's. This was an all-around advantage.
One must know that in the same era, there were differences in strength between countries, not to mention between civilizations in the universe.
Although the enemy did not have an epoch-making advantage, it was enough to defeat the Empire.
"Neutralizing the Great Rip …" Bai Ge knew that he had to get this method as soon as possible.
Earth would face the Great Rip in two months. The reason why there was so much time was that the Empire was blocking the periphery of Earth.
The Perseus Arm civilization was too far away. They could only use their fleet to invade the vicinity, and only then could they release dark energy to Earth. The closer the distance, the more dark energy they would release. Once a certain threshold was crossed, the Great Rip would erupt.
Now, the fleet of the Perseus Arm was still very far away from Earth. After all, the Empire was tenaciously resisting, so they could only release a little at a time. It would take more than two months to reach the threshold.
This allowed Earth to survive for such a long time. Otherwise, Earth would have been long gone.
In other words, Earth could indeed be attacked in advance. As long as the Empire's defense line was completely defeated, the solar system would be buried with them in less than ten hours.
From this point of view, the information provided by the Flying Noodle God was not completely accurate. The Noodle God only calculated based on the current efficiency of the Perseus Arm civilization's dark energy release. He did not tell Bai Ge that as long as the enemy was close enough, the attack could suddenly appear at any time.
"Zero Kills, what you need to do now is to do your best to defend the defense line. You have to resist for at least a week. I need to prepare some combat units," Bai Ge said.
Zero Kills frowned and said, "But according to the information, the Empire can't last for more than two days …"
"I have a way. You have to know that your atomic spaceship manufacturing technology is a godly skill in my eyes!" Bai Ge laughed.
"Atomic spaceship? This is just an operating system engraved on the atomic nucleus. The sub-light speed movement is given to the spaceship through quantum teleportation to accelerate it. Because the spaceship is too small, the energy required to accelerate to the speed of light is not very high. This is why it can travel at the speed of light. In fact, because the atomic spaceship maintains a low mass and an atomic appearance, it is very fragile. It is difficult to resist capture, it cannot withstand heavy impacts, and it cannot resist particle acceleration weapons … "Zero Kills mentioned many of the shortcomings of the atomic spaceship in one go.
The atomic spaceship was, in fact, the most common type of vehicle in the Empire. Its only advantage was that it was light enough, so it could accelerate to sub-light speed.
However, in a war of the same level, it was not very useful at all. It was purely a consumable. For example, if a large number of atomic spaceships were sent to approach the enemy, as long as one of them survived and encountered the enemy, they would be able to obtain information.
Other than that, they could only bully low-level civilizations. For example, when they controlled Virgo previously.
That was purely because Virgo's material was too poor. Nano-level materials were like a sieve to the atomic spaceship. There were holes everywhere, and it could be squeezed in easily.
However, what about picometer-level and Fermi-level materials? The combat effect of the atomic spaceship was almost zero. It was impossible for it to shake macroscopic matter.
Therefore, only when countless atoms were combined to form a macroscopic material where every atomic nucleus was closely arranged would it be the right way to go.
However, Bai Ge said, "What I'm interested in is this kind of microscopic precision processing technology. If we can use this microscopic technology to allow a single atom to have the effects of force field shielding, hardening defense, combination decomposition, energy harvesting, and so on, it would be like a sharp knife. Then it's an invisible knife that can penetrate any macroscopic defense. "
Zero Kills smiled bitterly and shook his head. "How is that possible? Just talking about energy harvesting, atoms are unable to store too much energy. Almost all of its energy comes from the energy center at the back of the Empire, which is provided to the atomic spaceship in the distance through quantum transmission. Furthermore, it is unable to contain enough energy. As long as there is more energy, it will automatically provide acceleration. If it is unable to operate internally, then it will be meaningless to engrave more complicated systems. "
"For example, our atomic spaceship can indeed be combined to form a force field generator. This requires at least a few trillion atoms to form. However, the strength of the force field is very low, so low that it can barely affect the molecular level. Even so, it is impossible to directly destroy an ordinary mirror of your civilization. It can only break the mirror through a small amount of influence and the physical and chemical effects at the molecular level. "
Bai Ge smiled and said, "Do you know that Mount Sumeru is like a mustard seed?"
Zero Kills said, "This is one of your philosophical ideas. Its original meaning is to express that the microscopic world can contain macroscopic principles. For example, a small human brain can contain the knowledge of countless books. However, philosophy is philosophy. If you were to stuff countless books into your brain, it would be physically impossible to achieve. "
"What if this idea could be physically realized, and a large amount of macroscopic energy could be contained in a small atom?" Bai Ge asked.
Zero Kills said in surprise, "This is unbelievable. As long as there is enough energy to operate within an atom without accelerating it, a single atom can achieve almost all of its macroscopic functions. However, the essence of energy is the movement of microscopic matter, and its energy level is its movement speed. Any method of preserving energy is also consuming energy. Energy is constantly being converted and transmitted, never stopping … What method do you have to make an atomic energy contain energy that is higher than its capacity limit? "
Bai Ge smiled and said, "A certain philosophy's black technology."
