How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 479 Preparations

The third sub-light speed voyage ended, and the sub-light speed creatures arrived at another destination star. As the price of slowing down, their antimatter reserves have been depleted, but it is still enough to move below the speed of light.

The third stop of their journey at the beginning, this star system is a single star system, but a red dwarf star, the light intensity is not high, and the number of planets is not many, there are only two, and they are all low-mass, which is equivalent to their original star system. In the starting point star system, the mass of the satellite is three times that of the gaseous giant orbiting.

Planets are formed by the accumulation of residual gas and debris during the birth of stars. The birth of red dwarfs means that the star system has less matter, so two planets are already rich in resources.

For the construction of this star system, a considerable part of the resources are transported from other star systems. At the beginning, they also organized several resource transportations for this star system.

However, this kind of colonization is worth it. This star system is also a research site for collectors to study how to obtain star matter at a close distance.

Welcome to the same family to come to this star system.

We need antimatter supplies for the next sublight voyage.

Chu directly stated their needs to their fellows in this star system, and the harvesters in the star system answered.

Follow this route and enter orbit.

According to the route given by the communication, these individuals initially established docking with the antimatter giant structure, and the sharp tentacles with the first single molecule penetrated into the sublight speed organism, and took out the exhausted antimatter container through the channel constructed by itself, and replaced the full bottle The antimatter container, the whole process is so simple and rude.

When the tentacles are pulled out, the propped up opening will heal due to the mucus on the outside of the tentacles, so there will be no wounds or even scars, and the same is true for the outermost metal skeleton.

After you assemble the proton lattice body, our antimatter filling becomes very troublesome. We can only replace the antimatter for you by opening it from the gap between the two proton lattice bodies. There is no fighting, so there is no need to use such a method. Biological design?

The antimatter giants complained at the beginning, if it is the sub-light speed organisms in the past, the tentacles of the antimatter giants don’t need to find the right position, just pick a place to pierce, and then they can replace the antimatter, but now they can’t, because the protons The density of the lattice body is even smaller than the radius of the hydrogen atom, and it is impossible for the tentacles headed by a single molecule to pierce this kind of proton lattice body, the density is too high.

This is a standing strategic material, so that it can quickly form combat power in a timely manner during a battle.

The proton lattice body, like antimatter, is a product that cannot be processed by cells. It needs a giant structure like yours to manufacture. If an enemy appears, and the strength is comparable to ours, and the battle is fierce, then we are likely to face protons. Lattice is in short supply.

The will has said that you must know how to be prepared for danger in times of trouble, live in adversity and die in peace. The same reason is true for you antimatter giants who are constantly producing and storing antimatter.

The collectors who traveled with Chu gave an explanation, which is the collective thinking of their group of collectors.

So that's how it is.

Then where is your next destination?

The antimatter behemoth continues to interrogate, as has the previous gatherers of other star systems.

A binary star system nine light-years away.

There are obstacles on the route to go there, you need to be prepared, it will be very dangerous to pass in this state.

The antimatter giant reminds these same races that the collectors stationed in the star system are not only responsible for the task of resource production and mining, but also the task of observation. There is a dangerous situation on the sub-light speed route like now , it is necessary for them to explain, which is also the reason why they will ask about their whereabouts every time they arrive in the star system.

Of course, even this cannot guarantee 100% flight safety. If it is a small-mass wandering black hole that is difficult to observe, or a relatively small and sparse number of wandering meteorites, these are creatures that are not easy to be found and are in a state of sub-light speed. The body can only ask for more blessings.

What obstacle?

At first, he became vigilant. Obstacles at sub-light speed, even if they are just a cloud of gas, are extremely dangerous.

The antimatter giant structure replied with a more fortunate mood.

A large high-temperature nebula in a plasma state was ejected from a supernova explosion 70,000 light years away, fortunately far enough away from us.

A supernova explosion is a cosmic disaster at the light-year level. It can directly kill a range of several light-years to more than 20 light-years. The area directly affected by the supernova will become a dead zone.

How big is that nebula? Another collector asked.

In the interval of two to three light years, there is an error in the measurement of stars.

The antimatter giant thought about it, but only gave an approximate value. There is no way that the distance of light-year level is too far, and coupled with the gravitational interference of stars and the limitation of the speed of light, it is impossible to answer an accurate value.

It's not very big, we can pass through it directly at the sub-light speed...

Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, the nebula will make us fall out of sub-light speed. Even if we have the ability to pass through the nebula, the accumulated high temperature may roast us collectively. Heat dissipation in a vacuum environment is a big problem.

Before the collector finished speaking, he was immediately refuted by other fellow collectors.

That's it.

The refuted collectors also realized after thinking about it that the antimatter shields in front of them will come into contact with the nebula, and this will lead to the annihilation of positive and negative matter, and then they will also slow down.

After realizing this, the collector was also afraid for a while.

At the beginning, they began to obtain materials from the same family in the star system for the transformation of organisms, and added a batch of solid helium for cooling, and then designed a vacuum insulation layer, vacuum is an excellent insulation layer , the only way for heat to spread is thermal radiation.

Speaking of which, why did the star 70,000 light-years away explode?

The collectors who were waiting for the completion of the transformation of the organisms sent out such an inquiry, and this question also aroused the curiosity of the collectors.

It should be that the supergiant star has reached the end of its life, and then a supernova explosion occurred.

No, not necessarily, maybe a certain civilization used black hole bombs. As long as antimatter can be mass-produced, black hole bombs can be manufactured, or black holes can be made in other ways, and artificial supernova explosions can also be achieved.

The gatherers were discussing with each other, initially trying to get answers directly from the antimatter megastructure.

What are your observations?

I don't know. When we started to observe there, the wreckage after the supernova explosion already existed. The supernova explosion took place at least 200,000 years ago.
