The fourth civilization, who was still confused until now, gathered around Qiu Yu, "What should we say to the other eight people?"
The Fourth Civilization has also woken up. Rather than being overwhelmed by the complicated solution process, it is better to seek the answer directly.
Qiu Yu solemnly said, "Defend to the death."
"In this case, aren't we back to the beginning? We worked so hard to trick someone into letting Brother Muzhuang study it. Apart from letting Lao Ao grab a strange piece of armor, what's the point?" Qian Xiao shook his head repeatedly.
"Of course, it makes us realize the importance of chess players... In short, I have planted the seeds to make the opponent shaken. Maybe they will jump out without waiting for the energy to run out."
"Just waiting to die? Although I am becoming more and more curious about your statement that there is no real death, I still can't trust chess players as much as you do." Su Hao's words meant that he hoped Qiu Yu could come up with something to convince him. Own.
"I don't just trust the chess players." There was strange confidence in Qiu Yu's tone, but he obviously had no intention of explaining it. "Let's wait and see. I hope the chess players won't let me down..."
On the ground, countless collectives of booming beasts were like an overwhelming giant blanket, covering the first civilization's starship. The situation is not absolutely one-sided. Facing an almost unlimited number of boom beasts, the First Civilization at least has a speed advantage. In addition, it has a basic understanding of the attack range of the boom beast collective, so it can barely support it for a while. .
However, the space here is bound by invisible forces. Once it reaches the position where the sky is broken, the starship can no longer move outward. In this restricted battlefield, the space that the first civilization could avoid was being compressed bit by bit by the collective of booming beasts. The brilliance of all weapons is bright and dazzling, but the effect is not as good as it looks. No matter how the First Civilization adjusts its position, what can be attacked is always the front of the collective of Boom Beasts, and as pieces of airspace are gathered by Boom Beasts After bringing the body into their attack range, the First Civilization even found that it was difficult for the main gun to aim at the Boom Beast.
It was only a matter of time before the entire sky was covered by the attacks of the Boommons. This is not a plot or strategy at all, so there is no plot or strategy that can be solved. Even if Qiu Yu faces this kind of battle that relies solely on strength to crush him, there is no way he can have any countermeasures.
Seeing despair approaching, the First Civilization put its hope in its allies deep underground under almost unimaginable circumstances. However, since the communication was interrupted just now, it is clear that there is no interference, but I have tried all methods and still can't contact them. It's like searching for the faint light of a firefly in a dark abyss, only to see it extinguished before your own eyes.
Qiu Yu has been calculating the things at the bottom of each civilization's box. The third civilization's light and the fourth civilization's expendable equipment other than armor have all been put on the market. Only the first civilization has not come up with anything outstanding other than starships. Something special.
This is a game with a very serious divide between novices and veterans. It would be normal if the gap between the two was shown from the beginning. Although the Eighth Civilization has one vehicle per person, the performance of each vehicle is hugely different. However, the starships of the First Civilization are all of the same level as if there are no higher-level convertibles at all. Therefore, it is necessary to It is said that the first civilization has no hidden power unless they pursue a more thorough principle of fairness than the fourth civilization, but this is obviously impossible.
But if you have been forced to the point of near-total annihilation and still don't use it, either it will not help the current situation, or this power will bring you worse results than now.
But in the final analysis, no matter how bad the outcome is, it cannot be compared to the destruction of civilization. After contacting its allies to no avail, the First Civilization was finally pushed by invisible forces to the point where it had to use this power...
A piece of machinery with a diameter of more than ten meters was thrown from the starship. There was neither flame to propel it nor any effect of levitation force. It fell straight to the ground like a piece of abandoned waste.
Groups of booming beasts approached the machine as if chasing bait. After invisible sound waves scanned it, they flew away without interest. A small number of careful and smart boom beasts attacked it, but after seeing that it had no effect, they allowed this thing that felt no threat at all to fall to the ground.
During the fall, a large piece of the blanket of the Boomer Beast assembly was even smashed out by it, but it was quickly filled by other Boomer beasts, blocking the machine from the sight of the First Civilization.
Tens of seconds later, the whole world seemed to tremble. This tremor was so slight that it was completely insensible. The cause of the vibration was the same as this one. There was nothing noteworthy about it. It was just a large iron block with a diameter of more than ten meters hitting the ground.
But this small impact was the introduction that turned the whole world upside down.
Although the line of sight was blocked by the collective of boom beasts, the powerful computer of the First Civilization was making calculations accurate to femtoseconds. When the machine hit the ground and the first shock wave had just taken shape, it suddenly started the starship engine at full power. . Dozens of huge pillars of fire were as dazzling as an exploding supernova, and the air was burned to the point of making a huge boom that far surpassed the sound of cannons, blasting a near-vacuum trajectory all the way to the ground.
While still accelerating, the powerful thrust carried the starship across a distance of tens of kilometers in less than a tenth of a second, and was infinitely close to the ground.
In terms of destructive power, just the starship hitting the ground at such a speed is enough to compare with the combined power of more than a dozen main guns. Not only will the area tens of kilometers on the ground and in the air be completely involved in complete destruction, but even Qiu Yu and his party underground will not be able to escape the fate of destruction.
But at the moment when the bow of the starship almost touched the ground, the starship and the huge tail flame behind it seemed to be imprisoned by the Sky Imprisoner, solidifying into a static picture. However, this static picture only existed for a short moment before it turned into a reversed image.
It was as if the flames ejected from the engine changed from pushing to pulling, leading the starship backwards into the air. At first, it was only retreating at a speed of tens of meters per second, but as the flames became brighter, as if the pulling force increased, the starship retreated faster and faster. After more than ten seconds, it was only a few hundred meters long. The tail flame was also pulled by invisible forces and turned into a slender pillar of fire tens of thousands of meters long. At the same time, the engine was defeated in the confrontation with this force, and was completely extinguished in explosions one after another. Before the slender pillar of fire that lost its sustained power was extinguished, it was blown away by the starship that disappeared in the same direction as it. Pressed down.
If you want to describe the speed of a starship when it hits the ground with its engine running at full speed, you can use lightning fast and thousands of miles in an instant. But to describe the speed of being pushed back into the air by an invisible force after losing the engine thrust, the only way to describe it is teleportation.
In the face of this irresistible force, the starships, boom beasts, and countless wreckage were all firmly pressed against the formless barrier in the sky, like countless dirt attached to the glass dome. Between the ground and the glass dome, the air is so pure that there is no substance, not even the tiniest dust, bacteria, or even gas molecules.
Tens of seconds later, the air compressed in the dome first returned to this space, and then, all kinds of things clinging to the dome rushed to fall to the ground like the densest hailstones.
The booming beasts that had just cornered the first civilization in the air were wiped out. There is no need to use almost such a prefix, it is true total annihilation. It's not even possible to tell their previous form from the appearance. The corpses of the boom beasts were completely mixed with various objects, as if they had been crushed by a steamroller thousands of times.
Half of the first civilization's starships disintegrated and became one of the billions of debris falling to the ground. The rest were all severely deformed and could not even levitate in the air, and fell to the ground with the rain of debris. .
This is the result of a mutual destruction. Although all the booming beasts in the sky have been wiped out, even if some people in the First Civilization can survive, they have lost the capital to play the next game, at least they have lost the capital to play the game as an interstellar civilization. , but... instead of worrying about the next game, the immediate crisis has not been completely resolved.
The physics engine is limited by the energy conversion efficiency. Even if antimatter is used as energy source, it is impossible to reach the speed of light. And at speeds lower than the speed of light, moving between interstellar distances where distances are often measured in light years, no matter how shameless a civilization is, they would be embarrassed to call themselves interstellar civilizations.
To achieve true interstellar travel, there are four commonly used methods. In order of efficiency, they are antigraviton engines, hyperspace engines, warp engines and star gates. What level of interstellar civilization has been reached can basically be judged based on which method has been mastered.
The first civilization has just entered the interstellar stage. The current starship can be said to be a semi-finished product in the process of civilization exchange. Although it has mastered the anti-graviton technology as the minimum requirement for interstellar travel, it is not yet ready to be installed on the starship. practical stage. So from this perspective, the starships of the first civilization cannot be called starships in the true sense. The reason why they are counted as interstellar civilization is simply because they do have the technology to become an interstellar civilization.
What was just thrown out as a weapon was the realization of this technology - a semi-finished anti-gravitational engine.
