Why did Dawn bombard the blue giant star? !
If you restore history, you will find the decision-making process that took place on the Dawn Mothership that day. The truth is this -
If you want to promote another war between the Navy and the Batarian Empire, while reasonably decommissioning the old warships, and kicking these slave traders back to the Stone Age, the first thing to consider is to prevent the Citadel Council from intervening. The best way to prevent the Citadel from interfering is neither to kill the big guys in the Citadel Council, nor to create a bigger incident to attract their attention.
To stop them, it is enough to prevent the Council's orders from reaching the Skirian Star Territory.
Although Zhao Min and the "Phantom Man" have figured out the technique, but how to do it specifically - we still need to hire professionals.
"Break off the communication between the Citadel and Skirian..." After hearing this question, Mu Xing casually called up a hologram, lay on it and measured it with his fingers up, down, left and right. This star map covers all the known star fields of the Milky Way, and there is also a strange "net" appearing on it. This is the buoy network responsible for interstellar communications - this top-secret thing is what Mu Xing went to visit the Star Alliance Arcturus. It was copied conveniently at the space station headquarters.
Mu Xing lowered her head and seemed to be looking at the map carefully. Zhao Min did not see her big eyes that were wandering around.
"As expected!" Mu Xing clapped his hands and stood up straight. "If we want to block the communication between the two, the way is the blue giant above us. As long as the blue giant breaks out a large-scale stellar storm, then the nearby buoy network will be affected...of course, including the Citadel and Between Skirians!”
"Is that so?" Zhao Min always felt that something was not quite right. It seemed that... it was going to get serious? She subconsciously wanted to refuse. "Then how can we make Blue Star explode? Forget it. I still feel that this proposal is unreliable. I'd better consider how to assassinate the congressman..."
"No, no, no! That's so inhumane!" Mu Xing quickly rushed over and hugged Zhao Min's arm tightly, "Look. As long as we fire one shot at the blue giant star, no one will be hurt. And then it worked out! Perfect.”
"Fire a shot!" Zhao Min was really shocked this time! "Will things really be resolved then? I think things will really get serious, right?"
Zhao Min suddenly realized that in order to test that kind of giant cannon, Mu Xing had wanted to shoot it at the moon in the Caribbean Sea! In the end, Lu Yuan rejected this unreliable suggestion, "We are all leaving soon, even if we can't leave good memories. But we can't smash other people's moons anymore, right?!"
It seems that it is because of this that the moon in my hometown has been completely preserved...
"Hey! What do you think that is?!" Mu Xing suddenly put her hands on her hips and became aggressive. "That's the Blue Giant! Even if ours fires a shot, it's just like pricking the giant's toe with a needle. In fact, the giant can't feel the pain." (Then if the needle is replaced by a Longinus one, Where's the gun?
"Is...is that so?" Zhao Min was still a little hesitant. She didn't like to enter areas she didn't understand. "Would you like to ask Lu Yuan's opinion?"
"Okay! You are the boss!" Mu Xing pouted. He complained dissatisfiedly. But Mu Xing still dialed Lu Yuan's communication in front of Zhao Min. In a blink of an eye, she started to laugh and talk again, which made Zhao Min feel a little dazed. Is this a deep split personality? !
"Ayuan, our main gun is about to be tested. But we haven't given it a name yet. What do you think it should be called?" Zhao Min rolled his eyes when he heard this. The main point was "it will be tested soon" okay!
fine. The wise and powerful Master Lu was not fooled by this little trick! "The main gun is about to be tested? What is the target? Where do you want to shoot?!" Lu Yuan was indeed as sensitive as Zhao Min.
"I hate it! They asked about the name!" Mu Xing let out a coquettish tone, "If you are not willing to give the main gun a name, then I will go find Nana!"
"Don't, don't! I'll do it! I'll do it!" Lu Yuan was immediately led astray - for a man who wanted to engrave his name on the "Avenger" assault rifle, it was too difficult to name the main gun of the Dawn mothership. You can't let go of the right to your name even if you die!
Lu Yuan had an idea, struggled, denied, and then had another idea... and fell into the above-mentioned endless loop... Finally, even Mu Xing waited until the fire was strong, and then he looked at Ai Ai and said uncertainly, "Otherwise, it will be called the end of the world." Blade..." He remembered that when the Reaper's main gun was fired, it looked like wielding an extremely long sword with a burning blade.
So, it seems appropriate to name it after the sword in Heroes of Might and Magic 3 that releases the "Doomsday Judgment" magic with one swing.
"What a bad name, it doesn't sound good at all!" Mu Xing was so angry that he hung up the call!
Zhao Min looked at Mu Xing in surprise and saw Mu Xing snickering and making a "shh" gesture to tell her to stop talking. Then he raised three fingers and bent them down one by one. 3, 2, 1... "Didi!" The communicator rang rapidly. Mu Xing connected the communication with a little pride.
"Mu Xing, listen to me! The name of the Doomsday Blade is balabalbala..."
Zhao Min covered his head...that idiot Lu Yuan! Now he dives headlong into the pit called "taking names" and completely forgets about "testing targets"...
Then, things just happened.
*****
Against the dark and empty background of the universe, bright blue fills the entire field of vision.
It seems that the shooting target is too huge. In order to bring the two subjects into the frame at the same time, even with an upward shot, only less than one-fifth of the blue giant star is captured. The star occupies most of the entire picture, hanging oppressively at the top of the picture. As for the bright edge of the lower edge of the huge celestial body, the arc is only slightly curved.
The 130-kilometer-diameter Dawn Mothership, soaring in the night sky below the blue giant star, looks so small. Her original dark golden color mutated into a blue-black color mixed with metal under the light of the blue giant star. Compared with the vast size of the blue giant star, the six-winged mothership's rotors present a translucent glazed beauty, making the entire spacecraft look like a little flower elf vibrating its wings.
In order to ensure normal shooting, the amount of light taken into the picture at this moment is only about one ten millionth of the actual amount. Therefore, the blue giant star, which should be extremely dazzling and emit infinite light and heat at all times, looks much gentler at the moment. Its central part is dark blue in color, and its edges emit a hazy blue light. It looks like it is wrapped in a layer of atmosphere - it actually looks a bit like the Earth, the home planet of mankind.
Lu Yuan saw the Dawn Mothership adjust its position, aiming its zenith towards the Blue Giant Star. Her rotors extended outward again, revealing the passage on the zenith that ran through the entire hull.
The lower left corner of the screen represents the count of the start time of the bombardment, starting a 30-second countdown. "27, 26, 25, 24, 23..."
As time decreases, the percentage in the lower right corner increases rapidly. "2%, 11%, 27%, 36%, 44%..."
"What data is this?" Lu Yuan reached out and touched the numbers lightly, and the other holographic screen opened - on the outer orbit of the mass effect core, countless orange-red streams of light were flashing rapidly, a ball of fire. Like a ball of yarn, the core of the effect is densely wrapped!
If you slow down the projection speed by 100,000 times at this moment, you will be able to see an elongated metal solution, like an extremely long greedy snake, surrounding the central sphere, divided into countless layers up and down - entangled with each other but in an orderly manner , rotating around the huge core!
Below that, an astonishing number is displayed: the initial mass of the projectile is 14,000 kg, and the current speed is 54% of the speed of light.
Lu Yuan rubbed his eyes, a 140,000 kilogram projectile? ! The projectiles of the dreadnought are only 20 kilograms! ? You improved me 7,000 times in one breath? ! It was their first test launch to do something like this. What kind of trouble did they want to cause! Even though the incident recorded in this video had happened four days ago, Lu Yuan still felt a chill rushing to his head!
"14, 13, 12..." The countdown was getting closer and closer, and after the speed of the projectile increased to 95% of the speed of light, it stopped increasing... But Lu Yuan broke out in cold sweat faster than before! His lips are trembling now. He just wants to catch those dead girls and give them a good spanking!
There is no other reason, because although the speed of the projectile no longer increases, the mass of the projectile begins to take off by orders of magnitude, and soon it will exceed the weight of a dreadnought ship (50 million tons+! Your sister! Why don't I say speed? It has increased because they are constantly reducing the mass effect field on the projectiles! Lu Yuan is already going to be driven crazy by Mu Xing and the others!
Reducing the mass effect field can further increase the exit speed of the projectile. Everyone knows this! But why doesn’t anyone do this? ! It's very simple - for your life! Your sister's effect field is reduced, the Cherenkov effect is increased, and a huge amount of radiation energy is accumulated on the projectile at this moment!
Are you afraid of hundreds of nuclear bombs that are about to explode? !
If there is even the slightest mistake in the spacecraft... there will be no more Dawn in the world!
"Where is that dead girl Mu Xing hiding! Get out of here! I'm going to beat her ass to pieces!" Lu Yuan couldn't help roaring and wanted to cause trouble for Mu Xing before the video ended!
Zhao Min put his head in with a smile from outside the office, "Mu Xing, Star Alliance's first heavy patrol ship was launched today, and she was invited to attend the celebration ceremony! And Mu Xing asked me to tell you that after the celebration, she will also She will join the actual combat test group carried out with the ship, and then she will participate in the Star Alliance and Turian's new generation frigate research program - in short, she has no plans to come back within half a year!"
Master Lu was stunned. Zhao Min looked at Lu Yuan's current appearance and asked a little strangely.
"I said, Lao Lu, why are you kneeling and watching the video?"
