Among the ocean patrol ships, Wang Qi's disappointment was palpable.
It's really, really boring.
The battle was over before he could even find the feeling!
These aliens who appeared out of nowhere are so incompetent!
At this moment, the combat cabin was filled with dissatisfied grumbles and complaints from his comrades.
In contrast, in the Kadila military flagship, the commander's heart was full of despair.
The enemy's offensive methods were beyond his imagination. This left him unable to even respond effectively.
What is that kind of weapon that is as small as a dust cloud, but seems to have the ability to maneuver autonomously? What is their attack mode? Why does a "cloud and mist" pour into the weapon launch port, the weapon is scrapped, and it pours into the telescope and radar, making all external observation methods ineffective?
How come their laser interception network is so efficient? How can the laser cannon be so accurate? Is the electromagnetic gun too powerful?
Is this really just a third-level civilization?
A researcher from the Academy of Military Sciences came behind Zhifu.
"Master Zhifu, after analysis, we probably understand what kind of weapon that dust cloud-like thing is... It should be a nano cloud."
Zhifu murmured: "Nano... cloud?"
"Yes. Their essence is thousands of nanorobots, gathered together like a cloud. Under the influence of autonomous maneuverability, they can cover an entire spacecraft under controlled conditions. It can even enter the interior of the spacecraft from various passages, destroy the circuits and structures of various systems and facilities, block passages, etc."
"Where do their energy and power come from? This, this is almost unimaginable..."
How can a nanoscale robot have enough power on its own? How can they attack without motivation?
"Sir, you should have heard of wireless charging technology."
This kind of technology has been widely used in the peak stage of the second-level civilization and even the first-level civilization. The Cadillac civilization also had many applications for this.
“You may simply understand it as an upgraded version of wireless charging technology. A certain field force is created through a certain vacuum, and nanorobots obtain energy through interaction with this field force. "
Zhifu murmured: "Vacuum science?"
"Yes. This kind of weapon system only exists in our theory. A late great scientist once asserted that once such a weapon is developed, it will mean reaching the peak of the third-level civilization, and the distance will become four Super civilization is no longer far away..."
The necessary condition for becoming a fourth-level civilization is the technology of propulsion without working fluid. The fluid-free propulsion technology comes from a deep understanding of vacuum science. At the same time, this nano-cloud technology also comes from certain research on vacuum science, which means that the understanding of vacuum science has reached a certain level.
Therefore, it is appropriate to regard nanoclouds as the pinnacle of the third-level civilization and a sign that it is about to enter the fourth-level civilization stage.
At this point, Zhifu had a thorough and comprehensive understanding of the strength of the enemy he was facing. The despair in his heart became even deeper.
"well."
He sighed, losing interest in making any decisions or making any more commands.
Death should be coming soon.
but……
Death did not come.
"Executive Assistant! The Gedo civilization spaceship gave up on us and pursued the main civilization fleet!"
…
"Captain! Why don't you just kill them?"
Facing the question of a warship supervisor, the captain widened his eyes and roared: "Are you stupid! If you can capture prisoners, why not capture prisoners? Get back here!"
The supervisor left in silence, and the captain grabbed the communicator and broadcast a piece of information.
"You have broken into the human civilization star domain! Now, come closer to us immediately and accept inspection! We will ensure your safety! Any resistance will result in a blow!"
"well."
Blaney sighed deeply.
The miracle didn't happen after all. In the face of the enemy's unimaginable combat power, the last ten remaining warships of our own side completely lost their combat effectiveness before causing any damage to the enemy. Even the propellers were destroyed, and their propulsion capacity was reduced to less than 10%. 20%, unable to even escape.
Now, the Gedo civilization warship is rushing towards us. At this time, what else can I do? What else can be done?
"Government! We have received the broadcast message of the Gedo Civilization's additional dictionary! The deciphering is in progress and is expected to be completed in five minutes!"
"The decryption of the message has been completed! The content is: 'You have broken in...inviting a blow!'"
"Government! Fight with them!" Another executive assistant roared loudly: "Why are you subject to inspection! They just want to squeeze out our value and then kill us!"
"Fight! I can't survive anyway. It's better to die on the battlefield than to be sliced up and studied!"
"let's hit!"
The Gedo civilization battleship is approaching quickly. Time is running out. Facing the excitement of his subordinates and the roaring sound like ocean waves, Blarney's brain was working rapidly.
How to choose? what to do?
"Quiet!"
Blaney suddenly roared. The crowd in front of them fell silent for a moment.
He panted violently, trying to keep his voice calm: "Surrender! We surrender!"
"Government!"
Someone roared unwillingly.
"I said, let's surrender! I am in power! I am responsible for this decision!"
The crowd fell silent again.
Blaney turned around and rushed to the communication desk.
"Dear Gedo Civilization, we surrender, and we are willing to cooperate with all your subsequent arrangements..."
His message was translated into human words through the dictionary data received before, and appeared in front of the captain of the ocean patrol ship.
"well!"
"It's gone, it's gone."
"Spineless..."
Faced with this surrender message, the soldiers were filled with disappointment.
The enemy has surrendered, so there can be no more fighting. This military rule, even if they want to fight at this moment, no one dares to violate it.
About a month later, the broken fleet finally reunited. They had to adjust their course and began to drive towards the interior of the star system. And this human ocean patrol ship followed behind and assumed the responsibility of escorting.
This ocean patrol mission came to an end after only less than 7 years due to this unexpected incident.
After the long voyage, Blarney looked at the huge gaseous planet in front of him with conflict in his heart, and sighed deeply again.
A huge gaseous planet, dozens of huge satellites, countless resources, countless fusion fuel...
This is undoubtedly the land of dreams. Now, I have arrived here. However, there is only one bad thing.
It would be perfect if I wasn't escorted here.
"The temporary accommodation spaceship has been prepared. Now, please follow the instructions and take the ferry ship in in an orderly manner."
Under the watchful eye of dozens of combat spaceships, and under the strict surveillance of the heavily armed Space Marines, among the few dozen remaining Cadilla civilization spaceships, headed by the Blarney Archon, a total of about three All more than one million people were transferred to temporary accommodation spacecraft. The spaceship they were originally on was temporarily taken over by human civilization.
A large number of scientific researchers and military personnel entered the spacecraft and began to analyze and study every piece of data and every piece of equipment. In the temporary spaceship, tens of thousands of professional interrogators were mobilized, and each of them interrogated each Cadillac person individually.
The confessions of every Cadillac person, every piece of data obtained from the spacecraft, detailed detection data of the spacecraft's status by professional equipment, etc., information from many aspects were cross-referenced and finally integrated into a The complete report was placed in front of Zhao Changxing.
"Stars... natural disasters?"
These four words, which were mentioned repeatedly by almost every Cadila person, attracted Zhao Changxing's attention.
He picked up the report and read it in detail.
Just like the literal meaning, this is a disaster coming from the vast starry sky.
Starting from a certain day, the starry sky seen by the intelligent beings of the Kadila civilization became distorted. Many stars suddenly disappeared, and many unknown stars suddenly appeared. Their distance from the Cadilla star - measured by optical means - also began to wander. One moment it might have been thousands of light-years away, the next moment it was only a few hundred light-years away.
Some stars are elongated into a line, others are twisted into squares, and there are even irregular shapes.
This plunged the scientists of the Cadilla civilization into extreme panic. Fortunately, although this situation is terrifying, it has not had any real impact on the Cadilla galaxy for the time being.
Until one day, part of the star Cadilla was cut off.
It was literally chipped off.
It was like a round ball that suddenly had a piece cut off.
No one knows what happened, no scientific theory can explain it, and no force claims to be responsible for this. In short, a star suddenly lost up to 16.25% of its mass.
Any star with a certain mass must have a roughly spherical appearance. Because only in this way can gravitational balance be achieved. A star, even if it has lost so much mass, is far more massive than any large planet.
Then, it began the process of returning to a ball shape again. For a star, this process is quite gentle, at least much gentler than a supernova explosion.
However, it is unacceptable to the intelligent life forms living in this galaxy, even if they have truly reached the third level of civilization.
The star disaster broke out completely and comprehensively.
