Super Battleship Reborn

Dark matter cannot be transported or stored, so the place to produce antimatter can only be outside the galaxy. .

One month after the work started, Xiao Yu finally collected enough one kilogram of antimatter. Because any positive matter that comes into contact with them will react with them causing the antimatter to disappear, they must be kept in special containers. The inside of this container must be a vacuum with extremely high purity, and it must also have the ability to generate a strong magnetic field, using the magnetic field to confine the antimatter in a place where it does not contact any positive matter.

The one kilogram of antimatter stored inside this county-level transport spacecraft is tantamount to a time bomb. If there is a problem with the storage equipment and it leaks, Xiao Yu's county-level spaceship will be blown to pieces from the inside.

Like positive matter, antimatter can also be combined into matter from elementary particles. What Xiao Yu produced this time was one kilogram of antihydrogen. After carefully transporting it to the base, under the watchful eyes of thousands of scientists and Xiao Yu's countless observation instruments, the first antimatter engine launch experiment is about to start.

This engine was installed by Xiao Yu in a huge factory building, and hundreds of extremely delicate mechanical arms acted as operators. Under Xiao Yu's command, they carefully installed the container containing the antimatter to the predetermined location, and the antimatter engine started.

Inside it, a series of controllable reactions took place.

First of all, the antimatter container was opened, but due to the constraints of the magnetic field, the antimatter still stayed there stably and did not drift around.

Then proceeded to the next step. The mass of antihydrogen was separated by the magnetic field, and a small amount of antihydrogen entered the reaction chamber. In the reaction chamber, there is a piece of positive matter that has been prepared long ago, waiting to react with it.

The fusion happened as expected. The moment they met, the mass of matter shone extremely brightly and harshly. In fact, not only in the visible light band, but also in the X-ray and gamma ray bands, it releases enormous energy.

When antimatter and positive matter meet, they will both be annihilated, and all their masses will be released in the form of high-energy photons.

High-energy photons will take the reaction point as the core and shoot out in all directions. However, Xiao Yu had already installed energy harvesting equipment on the wall of the reaction chamber. They will collect the energy carried by these high-energy photons through a series of processes, and transport them to various instruments in the system for their use.

After the annihilation reaction of positive and negative matter occurred, Xiao Yu detected strong energy, which was delivered from the antimatter engine.

Xiao Yu gently relaxed his spirit. This means that the first antimatter engine test was a complete success.

During this experiment, Xiao Yu collected a lot of information. Xiao Yu will fully share these materials with those scientists. Moreover, Xiao Yu assigned specific tasks to them. Scientists of each race have their own clear tasks. Scientists of different races can also communicate through the communication equipment specially developed by Xiao Yu for them.

Xiao Yu is trying every means to improve their efficiency.

Under such circumstances, more than 7,000 scientists, including those from Luca, started intensive research work together, tried their best to digest the test data, and searched for ways to increase load capacity, reduce wear rate, and improve safety. etc. research.

These, are the research work inside the galaxy. Xiao Yu didn't let those large collection, forging, casting, processing and other bases sit idle. During this period of time, Xiao Yu manufactured a large number of observation satellites, space turrets and other instruments. The observation satellites were launched by Xiao Yu, and they will follow their own orbits,

Keep moving away from this binary star system. Their direction is 360 degrees all over the day. Xiao Yu hopes that these satellites can provide him with some early warning information, so that he can respond in advance if the Merian civilization or other civilizations appear.

Needless to say, space turrets are the main force in positional warfare and defensive warfare. In fact, in the process of plundering the Tianlan market, if Xiao Yu hadn't destroyed all the space forts and ground defense equipment of the Merian civilization through the war in the data world at the beginning, Xiao Yu would have won even the slightest bit. Hope not.

In addition, Xiao Yu is still building a lot of spaceships. However, in this construction, Xiao Yu only built township-level and village-level spaceships, and these spaceships did not use precious materials such as the flesh and blood of alien animals or Zerg limbs at all. Xiao Yu planned that if a civilization came to invade, he could use these small spaceships as consumables during the war and try his best to consume the opponent's strength.

The combat effectiveness of these small spaceships is also improving with the improvement of Xiao Yu's technology. As a result, if there happens to be a major technological breakthrough, the combat effectiveness of the spacecraft manufactured today may be higher than that of the spacecraft manufactured yesterday. It's just that Xiao Yu doesn't intend to recycle and transform those spaceships to improve combat power. Anyway, it's just a consumable, and there's time for renovation, so it's better to build a new one.

The circumstellar large particle collider has been moved out of the spacecraft by Xiao Yu, and it has been assembled in orbit around the star. Under Xiao Yu's control, it is working intensively all the time, and a huge amount of data is collected by Xiao Yu every day, and then, while conducting his own research, Xiao Yu also returns these data Shared with the more than 7,000 scientists, Xiao Yu's technology is progressing rapidly under this almost desperate work enthusiasm.

Xiao Yu gained a lot of knowledge by dissecting the Merlian Civilization provincial spaceship and analyzing those mechanical storage devices. The current research process is just to go down the clear path and master this knowledge. There is no need to worry about bottlenecks and divergences. That's why Xiao Yu's technological progress is so fast.

Three months after the first successful trial of the antimatter annihilation engine, Xiao Yu manufactured the first spacecraft using an antimatter engine as the power source, and successfully conducted a test flight.

In addition to the anti-matter engine, there is also research on anti-matter weapons. Xiao Yu has successfully trial-produced anti-matter bombs, but because the technology is still developing rapidly, he has not made modifications to the nearly 100,000 large spaceships. Xiao Yu intends to do it in one step after the technology stabilizes. Transform them into powerful spaceships with level five civilization combat power.

Although my technology tree is not complete, and I haven't even mastered many technologies at the level of third-level civilization, but in terms of military industry, there are four protection shields. After digesting all these technologies, my combat power should not be lower. It's at level five civilization.

Xiao Yu thought so.

In the Milky Way where the sweepers and guardians have all disappeared, the fifth-level civilization should have the ability to protect itself. At that time, maybe I should find a star system to truly stabilize and start to manage my own forces. No need to run around.

Stability and safety have always been things that cannot be expected for Xiao Yu. At this moment, Xiao Yu finally saw the dawn of realizing his wish.

At this moment, ten years have passed since Xiao Yu came to this binary star system. During this period of time, Xiao Yu never gave up on exploring the strange star ten light-years away from him. By launching satellites and observing it from multiple angles, Xiao Yu finally determined that the dark hemisphere of the star was blocked by something, and it still existed.

The principle is simple, if it is blocked, it should have different shapes when observed from different angles. Observations from the probe satellites confirmed this conjecture. Among the satellites launched by Xiao Yu, the farther they fly in one direction, the more shining places will be in the pictures of stars taken, while the farther the satellites fly in the other direction, the more pictures they take. In the middle, there are more and more dark places.

This phenomenon verified Xiao Yu's speculation.

Then, a new problem arises. In the end, what would be able to block a star? Moreover, the occlusion is so regular, as if it has been specially measured?

Xiao Yu faintly felt that this place is not a place to stay for a long time. There might be some danger in that weird star. However, the fanatic nature of a scientist decided that Xiao Yu really couldn't bear to walk away.

If you just leave like this, I don't know when you can come here again next time. Moreover, the mechanism that caused this strange phenomenon may be of some benefit to the advancement of my technology. Xiao Yu thought secretly.

Moreover, now is the era of great technological development. Leaving the star system and entering the curvature-free voyage means that one's technological progress will inevitably be interrupted.

Stay here for a while longer. Xiao Yu thought with some contradictions, After digesting these knowledge reserves, we can make plans.

Going, reluctant, passing, but not daring, under this contradictory situation, Xiao Yu can only conduct an all-round detection of this strange star in this binary star system, separated by a distance of ten light-years.

Xiao Yu first measured its approximate mass through its bending of the light passing through it, and then measured its density. From these two data, its volume was deduced, and compared with the data observed in the field, the observation results once again verified Xiao Yu's inference.

Observation results show that if it is regarded as a sphere, all the data are consistent, and if it is only a hemisphere, then its volume is half less than the calculation.

In this way, it is indeed covered by something... Xiao Yu came to a conclusion.
