Liu An used administrative means to throw himself into Nanjiu C, a place where no birds can lay eggs. In the final analysis, he was optimistic that the harsh environment brought about by tidal locking would greatly limit his own development.
As long as it is blown up in this way, it can draw the bottom line and turn waste into treasure, so why not do it.
Ren Zhong immediately distributed this unconstrained report.How to implement it in detail, how to plan the blasting plan in detail and how to quickly manufacture a three-phase bomb with a suitable yield is naturally not his responsibility.
Immediately afterwards, Ren Zhong clicked on the report signed by Chen Yinghua.
This was the first time he had indirect contact with the person in charge of the commercial transportation company.
Although he has never met before, Ren Zhong has a good impression of this person. He is a person with quite subjective initiative and good overall planning ability, and he is reliable in his work.
Clicking on the report, he saw a large number of high-definition photos at the first glance, and also saw the analysis report of the joint fate of Chen Yinghua and the technical team of Yuanxing Commercial Transport.
Ren Zhong slowly sat up straight, his expression became dignified.
At about this time, the Yuanxing Fleet had already arrived at the sky above Nanjiu C.
At this time the fleet is gradually changing formation.
Next, it is necessary to pull the main body of Yuan Mercury to the vicinity of Nanjiu c, and add power to make it a planet that co-orbits with Nanjiu c and revolves along Nanjiu at the same speed. project.
At the same time, Ju Qingmeng is already presiding over a meeting, and plans to send an improved shuttle ship with powerful performance to land on the surface of Nanjiu C first, and conduct more accurate field tests to collect some samples back.
Ren Zhong immediately took over the control, recalled the shuttle ship that had been sent out to enter the atmosphere, and was carefully advancing to low altitude to try to land, and then ordered an armed ship to launch an unequipped bomb towards the surface of Nanjiu c. The pure kinetic energy missile of the Demolition Department.
Immediately afterwards, another shuttle ship specially equipped with a macro optical telescope entered the atmosphere, but it only hovered at high altitude and monitored it with a telescope.
Two hours later, when Ren Zhong returned to the Throne Hall of the Seeker Spaceship, the atmosphere in the meeting room had become extremely solemn, and no one was enthusiastically discussing the landing plan proposed by the Fleet Academy of Sciences or the Origin Star Academy of Sciences. Which one is better, everyone is terrified by the ant colony that is moving like a black storm on the ground.
The new kinetic energy missile has an astonishing quality and an extremely strong material structure. Apart from a small amount of laboratory-made super alloys, this is basically the best performance material currently available in the fleet.
Whether it is the idea of a series of dungeons or a floating city, it is necessary to rely on this material, which may be used as a dome and alloy pipes, or it may be used to make grounding brackets and cables.
But obviously, in front of the terrifying ant colony, this alloy is nothing more than a delicious ration.
In the past two hours, the [-]-ton kinetic energy missile became riddled with holes.
Flying ants like a black storm cling to it, piling up like a seething hill.
In the next few hours, the shuttle ship dropped a small amount of as many as hundreds of different materials back and forth.
The results are the same, these flying ants are not restricted by anything, and their teeth are excellent, no matter if it is organic matter or alloy, or even just ordinary rocks, they will not refuse anyone.
After eating up all the delivered samples, the ant colony spread out like a black sea wave, and pounced on the bare rocky surface of the planet.
Under the measurement of delicate optical instruments, the thinning of the rocky surface can be detected almost every second.
What's even more frightening is that the volume of matter on Nanjiu c is getting smaller.
This colony appears to be very dense, yet capable of flight.
Just like Chen Yinghua's previous judgment, Nanjiu C will be completely destroyed by this kind of ant colony in the near future.
Only then did Ren Zhong understand where Liu An and Southgate Augustus' real cards were.
These people didn't even intend to leave a planet for themselves at all, what they gave was a ruin.
Although there was no evidence, his intuition told him that the appearance of this unnatural life on Nanjiu C was definitely man-made.
Ren Zhong was indeed right.
The ant colony is indeed the bottom-of-the-box technology that the Augustus family is currently developing. It combines biochemical and mechanical technology, and has amazing reproductive capabilities and the instinct to devour everything.
In order to develop this ant colony, the Augustus family undertook the task of developing star-killing weapons, which they temporarily named star-killing ants.
The project is currently in its final stages of development.
If it can be successfully put on the planet of the sublimator or a large space unit including the mother ship, it will enter an irreversible period of extinction.
The most insidious thing about Star Destroyer Ants is that the corpses left after their natural death and the excrement they release while alive are completely useless and are real waste products.
"What do we do now?"
Now, even Ju Qingmeng, who has always been the most thoughtful, looked confused, turned to look at Ren Zhong, and asked.
Ren Zhong frowned, "No hurry, first try to use energy weapons to continuously bombard it, and try to see if it can be killed."
Chapter 502 Dormancy, forge ahead
A laser beam descended from the sky, penetrated the thick atmosphere, attenuated most of the energy, and irradiated the ground.
Right in the middle of the ground, there is a cube metal element dropped down 10 minutes ago.
It's a solid block of tungsten.Its purity is beyond the imagination of people on earth in the 21st century.
Through the previous sample test, the researchers found that the ant colony digested tungsten metal slowly, so they used it as bait for testing.
The current test is to examine the tolerance of the ant colony to high temperature.
As the power of the transmitter continues to increase, the energy level of the laser continues to increase, and the irradiated area begins to heat up.
An astonishing scene appeared, until the temperature exceeded [-] degrees Celsius, even the tungsten block began to melt gradually, these white ants were still bathed in the high temperature as if nothing happened, and continued to nibble on the gradually liquefied tungsten block as if no one else was around. and reproduce at a rapid rate.
Such a scene had a huge impact on the people on the fleet.
Obviously, since the high-temperature laser at [-] degrees Celsius cannot interfere with them, they can naturally appear in the high-temperature focus on the front of the planet, bathing and multiplying in the magma.
More images from the subsequent wide-field scanning probe orbiting the planet bear this out.
They have already covered the surface of the planet, and the number and territory are expanding at an extremely fast speed, but the density in some areas has not exceeded the limit, and the transformation from quantitative change to qualitative change has not been realized.
But at this time, in the Viscount Mansion of Nanjiu b, which is hundreds of millions of kilometers away, there are also a group of people who are secretly watching the development of the ant colony.
Southgate Augustus comforted his frustrated second son first.
Lord Viscount told the dejected second son that you should not treat your opponent as an ignorant bumpkin.
In the Empire, it is not true that a country bumpkin with no talent becomes an earl by sheer luck.Our family has worked hard for tens of thousands of years to gradually reach the earl's side through unique biomedical technology, but we are still a long way from it.
But Ren Zhong, a man of even humbler background, had made enough military exploits to become an earl before he entered the ranks of imperial society.
Ren Zhong has more than just luck.It has been more than 100 days since Ren Zhong handed over the giant germ cells of the fourth-class empress, and the family's eyeliner at the Institute of Biology of the Royal Academy of Sciences has given some very valuable information.
The fourth-class empress defeated by the Origin Star Fleet was not the more common one among sublimators, but an elite fourth-class empress, who had the potential to be directly promoted to a second-class empress.It can undertake the scientific research work in the sublimator, and seems to have played an important role in the research and development of the information flow invisible biological structure.It was this new type of gene that led to the disastrous defeat of the Empire on the frontal battlefield decades ago.Its biological gene bank is simply a treasure, so its combat strength must also be extraordinarily sturdy.
But it suffered a complete defeat at the hands of the Origin Star Fleet.
Because the Queen Mother Ship has independent intelligence and a strong ability to self-destruct.The Machine Empire has not obtained a complete giant germ cell for many years.
The credit of Ren Zhong is beyond imagination.
The Royal Military Research Institute also analyzed the detailed battle reports provided by the Yuanxing Fleet, and agreed that although there was a lot of luck in the whole battle, Ren Zhong made perfect decisions many times, as well as in-depth mobilization of scientific research personnel to complete the battle in time. Technological breakthroughs are also very important.
The talent of the newly promoted earl is actually not trivial.
But Southgate Augustus saw that Gruen became more and more frustrated the more he listened, and even vaguely blamed himself for standing in the team too early. Southgate said confidently: "It's still too early to draw a conclusion." The Star Destroyer Ants are not so easy to deal with, and it is impossible to eliminate them by conventional means. If they underestimate the enemy and land rashly, and let the Star Destroyer Ants successfully enter the fleet, what awaits them will be inevitable destruction."
"But intelligence shows that they have mastered nuclear fusion technology. The super high temperature released by nuclear fusion can kill Star Destroyer Ants." Gruen shook his head.Obviously, although he does not have the right to inherit the title of Viscount, he is not ignorant and knows a lot of information in advance.
Southgate said to himself, "According to the Augustus Research Institute's speculation, if Ren Zhong tries to use nuclear fusion to create high temperatures to destroy the Star Destroyer Ant, then he will need at least 40 years to collect raw materials. 40 years, It was already too late. With the genetic setting of Star Destroyer Ants, after reaching a certain density on the ground, they will start to go deep into the star mantle and star core. This process only takes 15 years. After 20 years, Star Destroyer Ants will Covering the entire Nanjiu C inside and out. It is meaningless to only remove the Star Destroyer Ants from the surface."
"Unless he blows the planet into pieces himself, he can achieve his goal. In addition, to be safe, I will use all means to block their foreign trade, and I will not let their light energy capture equipment easily approach Nanjiu Star to collect nuclear fusion Materials. As for the gaseous planets in the Nanjiu galaxy and nearby areas. Hehe, the Nanxiang Earl's Mansion has been acquired at a very low price, and it is now the private property of Nanxiangbo. They have no chance at all."
Viscount Nan Jiu's speculation about the situation of the Origin Star Fleet was basically correct.
After efficient research, Ren Zhong finally determined that the white ants cannot withstand the high temperature of over 1000 million degrees Celsius, and will be killed instantly, leaving a crystal with a very unique structure in place.
In addition, the researchers also discovered a substance that white ants cannot decompose.
It was the fangs of the sublimator super unit, the giant elephant, which the fleet had collected after the Battle of the Mother Emperor Fleet.
Engineers are currently etching the fangs with a high-energy jet of more than 3000 million degrees Celsius to create containers that can trap white ants.
On the other hand, the Tulong Academy of Sciences is also conducting joint calculations with other institutes to calculate the total amount of raw materials needed to produce high temperatures covering the whole world using three-phase nuclear fusion explosions.
About half a day later, Dragon Slaying Academy presented the report to Ren Zhong.
Different from Yuanxing Science Academy's idea of nuclear fusion planet transformation, in order to eliminate white ants, the method and area of detonating the nuclear bomb have changed.
In this plan, it is necessary to release as many as billions of small and medium-yield three-phase bombs at the same time, and make these three-phase bombs detonate at low altitudes, and use the tens of millions of degrees of high temperature in the center of the explosion to cover them at the same time, in order to instantly destroy the bombs. All the white ants, not one can be let go.Otherwise, with the terrible fecundity of this thing, this round of explosions is completely useless.
In addition, according to the multiple verifications of high-definition neutrinos and gravitational wave scanning, it can be concluded that the current white ant colony is only active on the surface of the planet, so this round of explosion plan has certain feasibility.
But the problem now is that, after preliminary calculations, in order to carry out an explosion of this level, the fleet needs to at least maximize its productivity, produce enough stellar wind particle capture equipment at the fastest speed, and then go to the vicinity of Nanjiuxing to collect raw material.
It will take 30 years at the fastest to accomplish all of this.
At the same time, Ju Qingmeng and Huo Donghua had discovered Liu An's advance preparations, cutting off the fleet's hope of easily collecting materials from nearby gaseous planets.That's why Tulongyuan gave the 30-year timetable, but it was ten years shorter than Southgate's estimate.
The reason is that after the fleet detonated the C1915 star, the fleet collected a lot of nuclear fusion raw materials in advance out of the habit of keeping a house with heavy responsibilities and thrift.
Although due to long-distance detours and other long-distance voyage needs, the fleet has consumed a lot of nuclear fusion raw materials after exhausting the reserve batteries, but there are still some left.
After reading the report, Ren Zhong felt that it was indeed feasible.
But he has a big opinion on the time of 30 years.
No one knows the habits of termites, and Ren Zhong judged based on his intuition and predictive ability, that some kind of change that he didn't want to see would happen in less than 30 years.
Ever since, Ren Zhong put forward a new idea, whether it is possible to modify the three-phase bomb, and place a reflector with neutron coating as the core force-bearing surface above the explosive part, in order to increase the altitude of the blasting point, so that Each bomb covers more area, reducing the number of fusion bombs used and shortening the preparation time.
The Tulong Institute and the Academy of Sciences pointed out that although there are ready-made neutron coating materials in the fleet, in addition to the coating, the reflector itself still needs the Imperial Technology Superalloy, which is still being explored, and needs to be tackled.It's possible, but no one is sure.
Ren Zhong asked again, assuming that the reflector has been realized and reached a level that can reflect more than 35% of heat energy, is it enough to collect raw materials in only 20 years.
The Academy of Sciences and Sun Ai quickly gave feedback after joint calculations.
It still takes 22 years to collect the raw materials.
But at this moment, the Academy of Sciences in Yuanxing once again proposed a new idea after learning of the new situation.
They can improve the detonation method of the three-phase fusion bomb and add a vacuum compression link, which can increase the energy released during the explosion by more than 40% while consuming the same raw materials.
After comprehensive calculations, if Yuanxing Academy of Sciences implements a new detonation method, the material collection time will be shortened to 18 years.
18 years is a conservative number, the best result is 16 years.
In addition to providing a plan to improve the three-phase fusion bomb, Yuanxing Academy of Sciences gave more analysis reports.
They believe that the possibility of white ants spreading underground must be considered.This spread may be related to the density per unit area of white ants.The fleet should use laser irradiation to suppress the reproduction rate of white ants as much as possible.
By the way, it can also try to drive the white ants to the hot focus and cold focus of the planet by using the laser scanning irradiation.
Although this level of high temperature and low temperature cannot limit the reproduction of white ants, it can use the characteristics of this creature to eat everything and gradually change the planet's landscape.
If everything goes well, when the detonation is possible, the change in mass distribution of Nanjiu c may just develop to the level where the tidal lock is about to be released.
It only needs to be detonated once, and with the violent impact of high heat and high-energy air, the final fine-tuning and shaping may be completed, turning Nanjiu c into a normal planet that is deserted for the time being but is raining steam and rain all year round.The temperature may be very high by then, but at least there will be rotation.
As Ren Zhong continued to ask questions, the 40 billion people on the Yuanxing Fleet and the nearly 300 billion people in the Yuanxing Galaxy quickly mobilized, worked together, and finally found a theoretically feasible way to break the situation in just seven days.
During these seven days, the Viscount Nanjiu never stopped spying on Nanjiuc with astronomical telescopes scattered throughout the galaxy.
Chapter 503 Lead the snake out of the hole
From the perspective of Viscount Nanjiu, the Yuanxing Fleet is completely in a dilemma.
For the entire seven days, the Yuanxing Fleet never sent a single ship to land, but continued to carry out high-altitude surveys like a pile of headless chickens.
It's fine if the Yuanxing fleet doesn't land, but it has already begun to dismantle armed ships. It seems that it intends to create stronger ships by tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.
Viscount Nanjiu once thought that Ren Zhong's plan was to try to strengthen the ship's structure to force a landing.
He laughed straight at that time, just waiting to see a good show in his heart.
He especially wanted to know Ren Zhong's wonderful expression when he found that his carefully prepared landing ship fell, but found that no matter how strong the structure was, it was impossible to resist the Star Destroyer Ant.
But after a while, Southgate felt puzzled again.
Uncle Yuan Xing must be a smart person. Now that the Star Destroyer Ant has been discovered, he will definitely try his best to test the characteristics of this strange life. He shouldn't be unable to judge that no matter how strong the ship is, it will only become a better star destroyer ant. The reality of a delicious meal.
After wondering for a while, Southgate no longer cared about it.
He also remembered that five days ago, he used the power of the director of the military and political department of the South Nine galaxy to forcefully reject Ren Zhong's application to seize the light energy and stellar wind matter of the South Nine star.
Thinking that Ren Zhong finally couldn't pretend to be profound at that time, and only put on an angry, swearing, incompetent and furious appearance at that time, Southgate suddenly laughed, overjoyed and satisfied.
According to the laws of the empire, since Ren Zhong owns a planet in the South Nine galaxy, he has a certain right to exploit stellar energy.
But only according to the mining rights calibrated by the empire, Ren Zhong really has to wait at least 40 years to get enough nuclear fusion energy.
