Outside the Empire's secret laboratory.
"Don't look at me, this is my first time in this laboratory." Casto explained to Hikari beside him.
"Is it completely using neutron stars as the core energy system?" Hikali looked at the conspicuous energy supply system outside the empire's secret laboratory, and was somewhat speechless. "Emperor Ampera is really. Although he talks about it, He says he doesn't like stars, but he still uses this energy. So, what the emperor really doesn't like are main sequence stars, right?"
Castor nodded silently and looked at the ultra-small 'Dyson Sphere' that was wrapped in countless energy receiving panels and was even smaller than the Earth's satellite - the moon. He finally understood those who were accelerated by the emperor's aging. 'The sun', where has it all gone?
"No wonder, I was thinking before that there are not many stars visible in the empire, so where does the empire's energy come from? Although full nuclear energy is not impossible, it is still more in line with the style of the empire." Shika Lee looked up and down at the empire's energy supply system. To be precise, the energy from this neutron star should be specifically supplied to the empire's secret laboratory not far away.
The idea of a Dyson sphere system is actually not uncommon. After all, even humans who have just stepped into the universe have already begun to envision a similar blueprint for the future. But the problem is that as the person who hates the sun the most, the Ampera Empire led by the emperor has no idea about the Dyson sphere. The design and the philosophy of design in the universe seem to be completely opposite.
Generally speaking, the design of Dyson spheres is carried out on main sequence stars and white dwarfs.
Main sequence stars are the most common type of stars, commonly known as the 'sun'. Their mass and temperature are relatively moderate, and they are the source of energy for the birth of most civilizations in the universe. The Kingdom of Light and the Ampera Empire were The star is the main sequence star, which is the sun.
White dwarfs are stars with smaller masses, and their luminosity and radiation are relatively weak. Of course, this weakness is relative to the main sequence star called the sun.
For main sequence stars and white dwarfs, the Dyson sphere plan is very suitable because their luminosity and radiation are relatively stable.
In the mainstream concept of the universe, red giant stars and neutron stars are not suitable for use as energy sources.
Red giants are stars with relatively large masses, and their luminosity and radiation are relatively intense. Neutron stars are even more exaggerated. They are stars with very large masses and very small volumes. Their luminosity, radiation, and mass are far beyond It is not something ordinary civilization can bear.
Therefore, for the vast majority of cosmic civilizations, red giants and neutron stars, the Dyson sphere plan is not applicable.
"There is no way, the empire is so big, the energy demand is actually more than imagined." The emperor did not know when he came to Hikali and Casto, and explained seriously, "The energy radiated by a star, even if it is used This kind of technology can only be used by civilizations in one star system. Most other civilizations in the empire without a sun can only rely on underground energy or atomic energy to survive, which is really difficult."
"After turning the star into a neutron star, the energy contained in the neutron star can supply a large area of the empire in one go, and this is much safer than collecting negative energy or something."
"The problem is that turning ordinary suns into neutron stars requires a lot of conditions. Only a small amount of suns can turn into neutron stars, and if one of them is not good enough, there is a risk of turning into a black hole." Hikali was a little emotional, but also a little bit Confused, "So the Empire has mastered the technology that can quickly collapse the sun and directly turn it into a neutron star?"
"No." The emperor shook his head, and then pointed to the energy supply system in front of him, "The neutron star in front of you was the one I manually turned from the sun into a neutron star."
Casto:
Hikari:
It's a bit outrageous. Castor thinks that maybe everyone in the universe has misunderstood the emperor. The "sun" he doesn't like is really the "sun". If the sun becomes a white dwarf, a red giant or a neutron star, he doesn't think it matters. .
What a fundamentalist sun.
"So, Your Majesty the Emperor, your goal is actually to make all the 'suns' in the universe disappear?" Casto asked in horror.
"Yes, I originally wanted to make the 'sun' go out. My original purpose was to make the whole universe feel the betrayal of the 'sun'. Me! The whole empire! The whole dark universe! Our goal is to drag the whole universe down! "The emperor pointed at Castor's feet and spoke unabashedly about his former evil plan, but surprisingly, his next sentence denied his former plan.
"But I don't think so now, because I discovered that there is only one 'sun' in the universe now." The emperor stretched out his hand and patted Castor, "As long as I can make the Kingdom of Light lose its 'light', it will be equivalent to The 'sun' that extinguishes the entire universe."
After all, they were people from the Kingdom of Light. Hikari and Castor quickly understood the emperor's words. Although the emperor hated physical light, he who survived the annihilation of his race actually hated the conceptual light even more. Not even just him, maybe all civilizations in this cruel dark universe are like this.
Having experienced hardships, looking at the civilizations of the Galactic Federation that relied on luck to make fortunes but were superior, the people of the Empire were like refugees who wanted to destroy other people's homes.
And it is no exaggeration to say that the emperor almost succeeded.
"Emperor, you came to us just to scare us, right?" Castor pointed to the surroundings. The empire was still so dark at the moment, and it seemed darker than before. "There is obviously something wrong with the empire now, Your Majesty the Emperor." , if you are so boring, I will reconsider whether to continue to stay in the empire."
"I know that just like I can affect stars, Reblondo, as a soul body, should have affected the dark matter and negative energy in the empire." The emperor said, "However, it is our turn to take revenge on him."
"Has there been any progress in the research on the demon fragments?" Hikali's eyes lit up.
"So it does, but..." the emperor still shook his head after saying this, "The name Devil's Fragment is indeed very appropriate. I can only say that the strength of Beria and Reblondo may be very compatible."
"Very high?" Casto was stunned for a moment.
"Follow me. Except for the scientists who are directly affiliated with me, this is the first time someone other than me has entered the empire's highest-standard laboratory." The emperor pointed at the 'Dark Fear' parked not far away, "My Spaceships and armors were born from here.”
. . . . . .
"Look." The emperor pointed to a Bemonstein not far away, "This is the result of my use of the devil fragments."
"Really! Can this thing still fly?!" Casto was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Hikali, "Um, can you accept animal experiments, Hikali?"
"Of course, it's not illegal in the empire." Hikali nodded. Although he felt a little psychologically uncomfortable, Hikali also knew that the current situation was not something he could change. "After going to Earth, I understand one thing. We must respect differences. cultural system.”
Even so, the sight of Bemonstein in front of them still shocked Hikali and Casto. They saw that the places on its body that were supposed to be 'feathers' had now evolved into fine scales.
Its eyes have been replaced by blood-red ones, and the original skeletal claws of the creature have begun to evolve in a strange direction like Beria.
Castor turned his head and looked at the emperor, "Isn't that the use you are talking about?"
"I crushed and glued the demon fragments I took away from you tens of thousands of times. The anger inside reached the highest level under such oppression, and was almost about to explode." The emperor said, "Then I finally discovered , In fact, the demon fragment contains two kinds of power, one is the power of Beria as a life form as Ultraman, and the other part, the violent emotions, is the embodiment of Reblondo's power."
"You! You! Your Majesty the Emperor!" Castor looked at Emperor Ampera in surprise, "You still know science?!"
"It's not like he understands science." The emperor shook his head. "From my perspective, the energy of the demon fragments is relatively intuitive. The dark but rational part inside is the power of the Ultra clan. The other part is red. The light is the power of Reblondo.”
Castor was stunned for a moment, and then realized that just as people from the Kingdom of Light could analyze the spectrum with the naked eye, as the emperor was the top powerhouse in the universe, some things naturally became very intuitive in front of him.
"When I crushed the demon fragments, I specially distinguished the two powers, but only this one has evolved more completely." The emperor said, "Bemonstein was originally the big monster of the universe, and a part of Beria was superimposed to belong to Austria. After gaining the power of the special clan, the physical strength of this Bemonstein directly rose to the level of the leader of the clan, but accordingly, his lifespan and sanity were greatly weakened."
"The power of the Ultra clan has such a side effect?" Castor said subconsciously, "Shouldn't it be logical to increase sanity and lifespan?"
"It has not withstood the test of the heart." Hikari replied, "Just like the light of the plasma spark tower, the power of the heart is the key to successful evolution, not to mention that Beria's genetic fragments are already contaminated. pass."
Castor was stunned for a moment, then nodded. He had no choice but to wonder if he had stayed in the empire for a long time. Sometimes he would forget some common sense about the Kingdom of Light.
"Wait a minute, what about that part of Reblondo's power? That should be what we need this time, right?"
"Be mentally prepared," the emperor said, "Those things have really turned into monsters."
“We haven’t seen any big winds or waves.wc!!!”
Several huge glass covers were opened, and they were all made of 'bronze' Bemenstein, just like statues.
And even though it was said to be Bemenstein, it was almost impossible to recognize Bemenstein anymore. The original bird-like head had two strange spikes like beetles growing out of each one.
"The cover uses a special solution used by Hippolyte and his family, so you can't see the change in their color." The emperor casually called up a set of pictures, "In fact, their body color has begun to change towards The direction of the blue and white changes.”
Castor was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and looked at himself, and then at Hikari beside him.
"What are you doing?" The emperor and Hikali asked in confusion.
"I have been studying the demon fragments on the spaceship for so long. Let me see if there are any mutations." Castor said speechlessly after checking for a long time, "Am I also a little blue and white?"
"We are originally blue and white!!!" Hikali slapped Casto away and reached out to touch his hand, "Emperor, how is the infection ability of the demon fragments?"
"Don't worry. Under normal circumstances, intelligent creatures will not be infected so easily. The demon fragment will have such a strong effect only after it is activated by me." The emperor replied, "The influence of this thing first acts on the soul. Ordinary cosmic beings can resist changes in appearance as long as they can think independently and have a slightly firmer will."
"Based on the results of the comparative test, it is believed that Bemonstein's intelligence is too low, which is why he is so easily infected."
Comparative Test?
Castor and Hikali were stunned for a moment. It was obvious that the emperor had already conducted experiments on real people.
"Don't worry, they are all criminals."
"Criminals? Are there any other criminals in the empire who need to be tried personally by the emperor?"
"Are you surprised?" The emperor glanced at Castor, "The empire is so big, isn't it normal for there to be a few people who have committed treason?"
"Wait?!" Castor seemed to have reacted. "Emperor, do you mean that Leonix has already been caught?"
"Of course." The emperor looked at Castor coldly, "Don't underestimate the empire. Although the new Leonix has not been found yet, there are a group of former criminals who have been tortured until now."
"You! You! What do you mean!?" Castor looked at Emperor Ampera's calm and cold eyes in disbelief, "You won't be so vindictive, will you???"
"Oh? What are you afraid of?" The emperor looked directly at Castor, "Speaking of which, next time I go to release the evil spirits from the black hole and punish them. What do you think?"
"It's the former evil general!" Castor said excitedly, "Your Majesty, please pay attention to your words! It's the predecessor!"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have long disliked the former evil general! Unlike him, I will always have only one emperor in my heart, and that is the great Emperor of the Dark Universe, Your Majesty Ampera."
Hikari:
If I read it correctly, is Castor showing his loyalty to Emperor Amperra?
Damn it, Hikali looked through his memory carefully, and then came to a very terrifying conclusion.
This guy was definitely not so loyal when facing the father of Ultra.
