massgalaxy, the Milky Way galaxy where the world of Mass Effect is located.
newgalaxy, the galaxy where Dawn is located.
Because this Milky Way is not the hometown of most people in the Dawn Group, it is insisted by Lu Yuan as the "New Milky Way" - in fact, this Milky Way is probably the oldest version born in the Source Sea - and countless neutral worlds and countless "Galaxies" followed. ”, all based on her model.
The two swirling holographic images of the galaxy, after a series of axial and diagonal adjustments, and through the comparison and positioning of seven million supergiant stars, finally allowed the two star maps to completely overlap! Seeing the bright spots one after another, each representing a huge star, the audience couldn't help but feel deeply moved. It has nothing to do with poetry or the distance, just admiration for the majestic nature.
"...When I was little, they told me that the Milky Way is like a plate." The first voice to ring out in the dark large conference room was Admiral Hackett's voice. The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy, which was not confirmed by scientists until the end of the 21st century. And revising student textbooks requires a long and tedious process... Therefore, when General Hackett was studying, the Milky Way printed on the textbook was still a big plate, and this star map misled many, many people. "Fortunately, I never went astray with my fleet."
"The predicted life span of ng is about 17,400 years greater than that of mg..."
After positioning, there is a large amount of more detailed data comparison.
The two galaxies are generally similar, but there are actually big differences in details. Based on the time of supernova appearance, stellar mass changes, relative positions, etc., it is relatively easy to calculate the "lifetime difference" between the two galaxies. What’s amazing is that in terms of the lifespan of the Milky Way, the New Milky Way is 17,400 years older than the Mass Effect Milky Way, but when compared to the age of Earth’s civilization, the difference is only less than 500 years.
In addition, in terms of the overall number of stars, the new Milky Way is a full one-third less than the Mass Effect one! Although the total mass of both parties is still of the same order of magnitude, the mass of the new galaxy is more concentrated in the center of the galaxy (building the neutron wall) and the two "galactic highways", resulting in the autotransmission speed of ng being higher than the rotational speed of mg... In addition, the large-scale "mining" of stars in the New Galaxy has also caused some edge galaxies to fly out of the Milky Way, which makes the total mass of the New Galaxy continue to become lighter...
It can be said that the project of transforming the galaxy in the Mass Effect world has just begun, but in the new galaxy, this process is almost complete - the entire galaxy is being arranged according to the wishes of civilization. There is nothing better than this to prove what "man can conquer nature" ! Of course, whether the result is good or bad remains to be seen. It takes fifty years to evaluate a dam project, so how long does it take to evaluate a project to transform the galaxy?
However, if real scientists, such as Mu Xing or her father Xue Universe, see these data, they will be keenly aware that there are still a large number of self-contradictory problems in it - the conclusion drawn will be a certain step in the process of civilization. This stage was accelerated by man... no, it should be "God"!
The intervention of certain supernatural forces has greatly shortened the process of civilization conquering the new galaxy.
In addition, there are two "highways" with more concentrated mass, which will inevitably affect the operation of the galaxy and surrounding galaxies. In the center of the Milky Way, the existence of the neutron wall that surrounds the entire galactic center will also cause several astrophysical problems - in short, these comparative calculations, which have been going on for many years, will generate trillions of data. To lay the foundation for future military operations - Dawn must calculate these clearly before setting off, just to prevent the deep space fleet from entering the battlefield with an "expired map"...
This is what war is fought for, intelligence and resources.
Then there is the comparison of combat power.
The data of new warships that have been released one after another with dazzling data cannot give Admiral Hackett a sense of peace of mind.
The gap between the two sides is really too big...
In terms of the elite level of battleships, Dawn's deep space fleet has left the Mona fleet far behind. This is no longer just mass effect black technology. The newly manufactured composite helium neutron armor plate is based on the mass effect field. Each micron thickness can replace the 3.5-5 meter thick alloy steel armor layer; the eleventh combined with magic The core of the first-generation battleship is already capable of short-distance "teleportation"; there are also "trial type" dimensionality reduction strike weapons... These are simply not what the Mona people, whose technological development has almost stagnated, can compare with!
But the Mona people can regain their disadvantage with just one move, and that is super invincible productivity!
It only takes six to eight months for them to produce a fleet of the same size as the deep space fleet... In other words, no matter how much combat power the Dawn deep space fleet annihilates the opponent, the Mona people will be able to fight again in a very short period of time. Top up! This is simply a Xiaoqiang who can’t be beaten to death!
Now it seems that the Dawn looks a bit like Germany in World War II. The weapons are sophisticated and complex, and each piece is like a work of art; while the Mona people look like Maozi, who has used his stupidity, bigness, and blackness to the extreme, and finally used The torrent of steel drowns all enemies!
"The stellar furnace, the damn stellar furnace."
All because of the 27 nodes and 27 stellar furnace fortresses that form the two main lines of the new galaxy!
Judging from the information that Dawn stole from the Mona people, the Stellar Furnace is far more exaggerated than the City of Dawn! City of Dawn uses an effect field to bind a super star as an energy source. It looks like "putting a star into a bowl." This has reached the limit of imagination.
The Mona people's stellar furnace is simply an artificial celestial body that is beyond the possibility of natural existence. They have no mass effect, so they use holographic technology to realize it. The Stellar Furnace can forcibly fuse multiple stars to trigger supernova explosions to obtain unlimited energy! The ashes after stars burn out, white dwarfs, are exactly the materials used to build the neutron wall surrounding the center of the new galaxy, which is the prison wall that holds the main god Elona.
If the energy level provided by the City of Dawn is set to 1, then the energy level provided by the Stellar Furnace should be 12-16! The productivity of transformation is limited by various factors such as technology, education, population, etc., and the Stellar Furnace can only reach about 1.3 of the City of Dawn! But there are 27 such stellar furnaces in the new Milky Way! It's hard to tell whether these stellar furnaces were originally built to provide unlimited energy or to produce materials for prison construction.
Fortunately, these stellar furnaces are only distributed along two main lines and cannot be moved. But the super main guns mounted on these stellar furnaces can completely control an area of thousands of light years on the main ring line.
"This is not a question of okay at all! How can this question be described as okay?!" Hackett, who has been busy for several weeks, has a haggard look on his face. "If we don't occupy these areas, we will always be on the periphery. These This is the real strategic location! By the way, that dimensionality reduction strike weapon you mentioned..."
"Sorry, that won't be needed here for the time being." Li Huamei could only smile bitterly.
Dimensionality reduction weapons only look beautiful, but once they are actually put into research and development, you will find endless problems. In Lu Yuan's words, "First pull you down to the same dimension, and then defeat you with rich experience." - with Idiot is a level up. Dimensionality reduction weapons cannot interfere with extremely large energy aggregates, and this alone rules out stellar furnaces.
Not to mention that the principle of dimensionality reduction weapons is to use the characteristic of "dimensions are continuous" to trigger a chain reaction. However, in fact, "dimensions are only continuous under certain circumstances." In fact, dimensions not only have three phases, but also There is the issue of "density". As a result, this chain reaction will be terminated in various ways - the conclusion is that this is a powerful tool for showing off! But that's about it.
The deep space fleet can carry out short-distance teleportation, which means that dimensional travel has been achieved. In this case, reduced-dimensional strike weapons are ineffective.
"We have created a super torpedo, which is about the size of a cruiser. It uses high-frequency changes in the mass effect field to destroy the shell of the stellar furnace... If 34 of these torpedoes are detonated at a specific location at the same time, it should be possible It plays the role of destroying stellar furnaces. But it is very difficult to implement... In addition, we are also studying planet-class battleships, which are simply super cannons for rear attack! They are specially used to smash turtle shells,"
This is a bit like timed blasting like demolishing a building. The problem is that the enemy is not the building to be demolished.
"Well, some method is better than no method." Hackett put the question aside for the time being. "Just projecting from here is very restrictive. Let's discuss the issue of establishing forward positions in the new galaxy. How do you consider concealment?"
"We currently control an immigrant ship and have secretly obtained control of star areas 44 and 47. It is conservatively estimated that we can develop covertly for about 17 months..."
"Maybe you hid it for so long?"
"Lu Yuan will attract the enemy's attention from another direction. In fact, if he fails, our only option is to retreat completely."
Some people may say, how simple this question is! Just occupy one stellar furnace first, and then use this stellar furnace to destroy the others! Of course, we must be more flexible in tactics. Let me lure snakes out of their holes, outflank left and right, cut off the retreat, and encircle the army... Let me tell you a joke. During the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese had many artillery and equipment and we couldn't defeat them. Then someone made a plan and said that we You can steal the enemy's cannon and shoot the enemy...
The magic of "Say Cao Cao and Cao Cao is here" is always very effective.
As soon as Lu Yuan was mentioned here, the door of the conference room over there was pushed open, and the old thief Lu poked his head in to take a look.
"Hey! Don't look around, I'm calling you! Silly boy, get here!" When Hackett looked at Lu Yuan, he immediately shouted rudely. Compared to the members of the Dawn Regiment, his trust in Lu Yuan was less than blind obedience. He needed to have the most comprehensive understanding of all situations, so he called Lu Yuan immediately.
Unexpectedly, when he heard his voice, Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then disappeared like a rabbit that had been hit by an arrow!
"...Why did I hit him?" The admiral was speechless.
"He might be a little sensitive," Li Huamei pursed her lips and didn't know what to say. Instead, Shepard smiled like a flower, winked and shouted at Li Huamei. "I just received the news that he is dying?!"
