Chapter 334: Dimensional Shield Debut

The Devourer Fleet's mode of attack completely surpassed all enemies the Yanhuang Civilization had ever faced.

Their conventional attacks were already enough to cause headaches.

And this was merely an appetizer.

After the first wave of corrosive energy blobs attacked, the tactics of those living warships changed instantly.

They no longer conducted long-range bombardment, but instead collectively emitted a silent hiss.

A strange ripple spread from their formation.

"Alert! Detected high-intensity dimensional distortion!"

"The enemy is releasing a 【Dimensional Attack】!"

Qian Yin's exclamation echoed on the bridge.

The space before the Yanhuang Fleet began to crumple like paper, showing violent distortion and folds.

This attack no longer acts on the warships themselves, but directly on "dimension".

They intend to twist and shred the three-dimensional space where the Yanhuang Fleet resides, along with all matter within it.

"Hum——"

The dozens of unmanned escort ships at the forefront found their spatial shields almost useless against this strange attack.

The shields shattered like fragile glass in an instant.

Immediately after, the hulls of those two escort ships, under this distorting force,

were forcibly pulled and deformed, finally twisted apart like a braid and exploded into a brilliant fireball!

"Hiss……"

Seeing this, Long Feng couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

This attack style is utterly unreasonable!

However, Qin Hao's face remained completely calm.

It seemed as if what was torn apart were not two expensive warships, but two insignificant ants.

He slowly raised his hand and issued a simple command.

"Void Wanderer, activate 【Dimensional Shield】."

"Yes!"

The command was executed instantly.

The next moment, centered on the Void Wanderer, the surrounding space rippled with a layer of barely perceptible, water‑like fine ripples.

This is a defense based on the Star Language Civilization's fifth‑level technology, personally optimized by Qin Hao using the system!

A stable dimensional barrier that semi‑isolates the warship from three‑dimensional space!

At the exact moment the Dimensional Shield activated, an even stronger Dimensional Rift Wave had already crossed space and slammed into it!

A strange scene occurred.

The terrifying attack capable of shredding a star‑ship, upon contacting that thin "water‑surface ripple," was like a mud‑cow entering the sea—producing no ripple at all.

No!

It's not that it produced no ripple!

But it was perfectly "deflected"!

Only see that invisible Dimensional Rift Wave sliding across the shield's surface, then being reflected back at a strange angle!

Neither biased nor off‑target, it shot straight back at the Devourer warship that had launched the attack!

That living warship obviously hadn't expected its own attack to be reflected, and had no time to react.

"Pfft!"

A muffled thud seemed to echo in everyone's mind.

That massive biological warship, under its own released attack, was instantly twisted into an unnameable mass of flesh and then exploded with a boom!

The entire battlefield fell silent for a moment.

The Devourer Fleet's attack experienced a brief pause.

In their chaotic collective consciousness, an emotion named "confusion" appeared for the first time.

Inside the bridge, the people of the Yanhuang Civilization, after a brief silence, burst into a restrained cheer!

"Success!"

"Good heavens! They actually bounced the attack back!"

"Is this the dimensional defense technology? It's… too… too strong!"

Qin Hao ignored the crowd's excitement, and his command was issued again.

"Through the Star Gate, immediately transfer the second batch, an escort fleet equipped with 'miniaturized Dimensional Shields'."

This, is his true confidence.

The Dimensional Shield on the Void Wanderer is an upgraded version of the system's 'concept creation'.

After he absorbed a huge amount of energy, he had already had the system replicate a batch of mass‑producible 'miniaturized' versions.

Although its effect is inferior to the flagship's version and cannot achieve perfect reflection, it is sufficient to resist the Devourer's dimensional attacks!

The Star Gate's light shone brightly.

Another unmanned fleet of a thousand ships was replenished into the battlefield.

This time, the surface of every warship rippled with that layer representing absolute defense—the 'water‑surface ripples'.

The battle situation instantly reversed!

The Devourer's Dimensional Rift Wave completely lost its effect.

Their attacks, striking the Yanhuang Fleet's shields, were like raindrops falling into the sea—only raising tiny ripples, unable to cause any substantive damage.

Realizing that its dimensional attacks were ineffective, the Devourer Fleet seemed to fall into a kind of rage.

Their tactics changed again.

Abandoning all ranged attacks, over a thousand living warships, like mad dogs,

dragging their writhing bodies, began the most primitive, most savage close‑range ramming!

They intend to use their massive size and numerical advantage, with the most direct melee, to tear apart the defenses of the group of "turtles" before them!

Facing the enemy's frenzied tactics, Longfeng again issued a challenge, hoping to settle the outcome with a powerful weapon in one strike.

But Qin Hao still did not agree.

"Do not employ dimensional weapons."

His voice was cold and rational.

"Order: counterattack with all conventional weapons.

I want to see the upper limit of their physical form's evolution, and the limit of their adaptation speed."

"Record all data."

This is by no means an evenly matched war.

This is an extremely cold, one‑sided performance test!

Using a hunting fleet in Andromeda that strikes terror, to test the Yanhuang Civilization's new weapon performance!

The Devourer Fleet's chaotic consciousness, formed from countless devoured souls,

seems to finally realize that it has been "played" by this tiny civilization before it.

An unprecedented fury erupted within their collective mind.

Their attacks became even more frantic, even more reckless, and even more chaotic.

At that moment, within the fleet, the largest command ship at the very center of the formation suddenly halted all movement.

Its black‑purple hull began to contract and expand violently.

As if it were gathering some terrifying power.

In the next second, a blindingly intense purple beam erupted from inside its hull!

The beam ignored space, ignored distance, ignored all escort ships ahead.

It seemed to have locked onto its target from the start.

The target was the flagship at the fleet's core — the Void Walker!

More precisely, inside the flagship's bridge… Qin Hao!

Almost at the same moment the purple light ignited, in Qin Hao's mind,

the system's alarm sounded at an unprecedented rapid pace, screaming wildly!

【Alert! Advanced spiritual energy detected!】

【Analyzing…】

【Energy nature assessment: suspected… an attack targeting the soul layer!】

The purple beam accelerated to its limit.

It was not light in the physical sense, but a pure curse aimed at "consciousness" and "soul."

Its goal was to directly erase Qin Hao's self‑awareness and destroy his soul!

However, Qin Hao was already prepared.

Within a thousandth of a second after the system's alert, he had already reacted.

"Activate the Spiritual Resonance Shield!"
