Wandering planet that will travel

"You mean, the Earth Cannon fires a planetary engine!?"

Ding Yi replied: "You can put it this way, if you want to talk about the cost, the resources consumed may be even more."

So far, the Wandering Earth has unlocked multiple uses of planetary engines, but it is a bit of a test of imagination to compress planetary engines into shells and shoot them out.

"You guys are so insane!" Qiao Lv sighed.

Launching the entire planetary engine as a cannonball, the kinetic energy is so terrifying that it is unimaginable. Indeed, only the earth cannon can do such an exaggerated thing.

Among other things, throwing this metal sphere at the earth now is probably enough to destroy the entire earth, and there is no need to launch it at all.

Qiao Li asked: "It will pass through the earth like a bullet through cheese."

"Ahem, I think it's even scarier than this." Ding Yi replied:

"As I just said, its surface is maintained at absolute zero because the molecular vibrations have completely disappeared. But it also means that if the energy generated by the outside world is large enough, it is still possible to re-vibrate its molecules .”

"So when it hits a planet at a high speed, the huge kinetic energy generated by the impact, and the high temperature and pressure when passing through the center of the earth will make the molecules on its surface vibrate again, and then a chain reaction will spread throughout the entire sphere—"

When he heard the chain reaction, Qiao Li knew what was going to happen.

When the atomic nucleus gets rid of the strong interaction force and splits into multiple atomic nuclei, the result is nuclear fission accompanied by huge energy release.

In the same principle, when this strong interaction force material is fissioned due to the huge kinetic energy of the impact and the high temperature and pressure of the earth's core, the resulting explosion is equivalent to the power of a nuclear bomb explosion of hundreds of millions of tons. What should be the equivalent of TNT? Trillion tons, there is no need to count, anyway, no planet can hold it.

This is a star-destroying weapon through and through, and even conversely, if it is not a big enough planet, it will not even be able to detonate it!

For example, a planet the size of the moon really passes through like a bullet through cheese, leaving only traces like minimally invasive surgery.

But when it hits the earth or even a larger planet, the consequences are as unimaginable as just mentioned.

In addition, it needs to be explained that although it is a strong interaction material like the water droplet in the three-body, the difference is still quite large.

Only the outer shell of the water droplet is a strong interaction material, which wraps the internal artificial intelligence computer, strong interaction force generator, thrusters for compressing electron rain, and 12 space force field engines for sharp-angle turns, etc. wait.

Therefore, the mass of the water droplet is only about as heavy as a truck, not equivalent to the weight of a planetary engine like the metal sphere in front of him.

More importantly, the outer shell of the water droplet is pinned by the force field generated by the strong interaction force generator, not by compression.

The typical feature is that the extranuclear electrons are not pressed into the nucleus and neutralized with positively charged protons to form neutrons, but instead form a flowable electron rain on the surface.

Along the surface of the absolutely smooth strong interaction material, the electron rain quickly gathers towards the tail of the water droplet in the form of pulses, forming a beautiful electron vortex ring, which is also the force that pushes the water droplet forward.

These factors lead to the fact that the water droplets will not explode violently like a chain reaction, and since the strong interaction force field will always lock the vibration of the molecules, there will be no re-vibration of the molecules.

Once the internal strong interaction force field dissipates, the outer layer of strong interaction force material will fall apart due to the repulsion of the electromagnetic force between protons, without releasing any energy.

Depending on the manufacturing method, the properties of strong interaction materials are also quite different.

What the wandering earth produces is not water droplets, but another kind of strong interaction material, which is close to the neutron degenerate state in physical properties, and will release huge energy when it returns to normal matter.

In any case, this weapon is powerful enough to destroy a planet, but the cost is quite high, after all, what is launched is the weight of a planetary engine.

"In that case, how do we use it against the Death Star?"

Qiao Lv finally remembered the most critical question. The diameter of the Death Star is only 160 kilometers, which is definitely not enough to detonate the shell.

"If it's just to destroy the Death Star, it's really not worth our trouble." Ding Yi replied, "But in order to obtain the energy core of the Death Star, we have to do so."

"How do you say that?"

"The size of the Death Star is not big enough to detonate this shell, so we can just use it to carry out surgical precision strikes, hitting the command room of the Death Star in one blow. Without damaging the energy core, let the Death Star completely paralyzed."

Shen Huabei continued: "But according to the information provided by Galen Erso and the design drawings of the Death Star, the command room of the Death Star is located above the top edge of the super laser cannon launch port. If we want to accurately hit the command room , and avoid damaging the energy core of the Death Star as much as possible, only when the Death Star actively uses the super laser cannon to aim at us, and use the earth cannon to fight back, can we achieve our goal perfectly."

Qiao Lu frowned and said, "But if we let the Death Star's super laser cannons hit the earth, wouldn't our previous efforts be in vain? It's pointless to die together!"

The Wandering Earth did not cross over to overthrow the rule of the Galactic Empire. It is meaningless to sacrifice the Wandering Earth in exchange for the Death Star.

If you can use the earth cannon to destroy the command room of the Death Star while avoiding being destroyed by the super laser cannon, this is the real happy ending.

Ding Yi nodded and said, "That's right, we've also considered this, so—"

"We're going to blast the Death Star with Earth cannons!"

Chapter 533 Insist on Convincing People with the Truth

"what do you mean?"

Qiao Lv wondered if he had heard it wrong. Wasn't it a joke to confront the Death Star?The opponent can smash the entire earth with a single shot of a super laser cannon. In this case, what's the point?

But Ding Yi said seriously: "Of course I am not referring to the confrontation between you shooting me and I returning you. It is the main guns of both sides firing at the same time and colliding with each other in space to offset each other. In the end, only one side can Survive."

This is not so much a confrontation, but a confrontation.

It's just that it's the Earth and the Death Star that staged this scene. It's really Star Wars.

"Can it really be done?" Qiao Lv asked suspiciously.

Ding Yi nodded and said: "Galen Erso demonstrated for us the time required for the Death Star super laser cannon, from locking the target to fully charging and firing. The time for predicting the trajectory is very sufficient, and in the When the distance between the two sides is far enough, the super laser cannon can be intercepted midway like intercepting missiles."

"Of course, since the super laser cannon will not be detonated like a missile, we can only offset the firepower of the super laser cannon with a more powerful main cannon, and fight back along its trajectory. As I said just now , the command room of the Death Star is located above the top edge of the launch port of the super laser cannon, so you only need to adjust the angle along the trajectory of the super laser cannon to hit the command room of the Death Star precisely."

Hearing this, Qiao Li realized that this plan was not a joke. The wandering earth really wanted to use the earth cannon to bombard the Death Star.

That's why such an indestructible strong interaction shell is needed. This may be the only material that can withstand the Death Star's super laser cannon and run over it with strong kinetic energy!

"Is it really necessary to take such a risky action?" Qiao Lu couldn't help asking.

The whole plan sounds too crazy, and it seems as difficult to realize as the Wandering Earth Project.

Shen Huabei shook his head and said, "Director Qiao Lv, I know it sounds crazy, but this is the most certain plan that can achieve our goal after excluding all other methods. If we just want to destroy the Death Star, we only need Taking advantage of Galen Erso's absence and blowing up the Death Star's reactors with proton torpedoes down the exhaust pipes, we'd get nothing."

"Another way is to sneak into the Death Star and use the gang battle method to capture it, but after experiencing the Scarif suit, I don't think the empire will be careless enough to watch the Death Star fall into our hands , It is even possible to activate the self-destruction program of the Death Star to fight us to the death."

"So the only way to surprise is the earth cannon, which can completely destroy the command room of the Death Star with one blow, but does not damage its reactor energy core. Galen Erso promised that by then he will find a way to use the Death Star's reactor energy. The core is transferred to the crescent base, and a super laser cannon is redesigned to be installed on the crescent. The crescent base will be upgraded and transformed into a starkiller base, isn’t it worth our risk?”

The Death Star's super laser cannon was designed by Galen Erso. As long as he can get the Death Star's reactor energy core, he certainly has a way to redesign a super laser cannon.

It is not impossible for the New Moon base to be upgraded and transformed into a Starkiller base.

"Actually, there is another more important reason." Ding Yi added, "Since it was discovered that the Death Star's super laser cannon is enough to destroy the entire earth, the top leaders of the coalition government have been shaken to a certain extent. I think you have already experienced it. .”

"of course."

Qiao Lv has not forgotten what happened at the last coalition government council meeting. The fear of the Death Star caused some people to start to retreat. It was he who insisted on taking military action against the empire after fighting for reason.

Ding Yi continued: "Now the top leaders of the coalition government have regained their faith, but for ordinary people, knowing that the enemy they are facing has such powerful weapons, they will inevitably feel fear and anxiety, and begin to doubt the coalition government's decision-making. .”
