Super Mothership

Chapter 617 Carbon Fusion

“…The other party is so persistent in expanding the wormhole, is there something huge that needs to be passed through? And that thing can be a final word?”

Alsace’s previous speculation suddenly came to Gillard’s mind again, causing his face to change.

At the same time, Nie Yun was also looking at this weird celestial body emitting white light with a look of surprise, and information about the white dwarf appeared in his mind.

Such celestial bodies are not uncommon in the universe.

After passing through the main sequence phase of the life cycle, the low-to-medium-mass Star will expand into a red giant star, such as… the sun!

After billions of years, the sun will cross the main sequence star and expand into a huge red giant star that will swallow Mercury, Venus, and even the earth.

The blazing high temperature will turn the earth into a land of lava, the extremity of life, and at this time we have two choices, one is to emigrate to an alien planet, the other is to wander the earth…

The core of the sun in the state of a red giant will continue to shrink, while the shell will continue to burn, and then throw away the outer material in a series of thermal pulses, forming a gorgeous nebula on the periphery.

And the last burning debris left behind… is the white dwarf we saw!

White dwarfs are usually composed of carbon and oxygen. Because of the rapid collapse of gravity during the formation of white dwarfs, atoms are crushed to form degenerate matter composed of atomic nuclei and electrons, so its density is amazing.

Even the “pocket-sized” white dwarf star with a diameter of only 180 kilometers in front of us has a mass much greater than that of ordinary celestial bodies.

Only about 3% of all stars are white dwarfs, and they are quite far away from the solar system, so this is the first time Nie Yun has witnessed this kind of celestial body at close range.

“This thing…what does the other party want to do?”

Like everyone else, Nie Yun thought of this question for the first time.

As long as IQ is online, they understand that the Rock Consortium has spent great effort and painstaking efforts to expand the wormhole, and it will never be just to send a “flare” at the most critical moment of this battle.

So the crux of the question now is what is the use of something like a big light bulb?

“Is this also a battle star? A degenerate battle star?” Nie Yun guessed, but soon he shook his head and laughed.

Although the ultra-high density brings ultra-high defense power, ordinary attack methods don’t even want to break its skin, but it also means ultra-high gravity.

Not to mention biological, even high-strength alloy steel will only become a pile of discus on it, not to mention that the high temperature of over 8,000 degrees is enough to melt most materials.

“Since you can’t carry weapons, is it possible to use collisions? But the speed is too touching… Wait! Could it be…”

Nie Yun’s expression also changed when he realized something.

“Immediately order the Fallen Angel to maneuver at full speed and hide behind the Fearless Battle Star! Also…notify Ishar and Renault…”

…

When Nie Yun acted for the first time, there was some commotion in the entire battlefield because of the “chaotic entrants”.

The Gemini side is nervous and worried that this white dwarf is the super weapon of the other side, The next moment will give them a “Genesis”, while the Lane side is inexplicable.

Didn’t it say that this thing will join the battlefield?

So… what the hell is this?

Just when the battlefield fell into a brief chaos, the order from the old patriarch of the Lane clan finally broke the situation.

“Evacuate immediately, and return to the wormhole as quickly as possible, regardless of all costs!”

This order is very inexplicable, and all the soldiers heard a hint of eagerness from the order.

So… the Gemini warriors who were fighting the enemy stared in amazement at the opponent who had just been defying and daring to charge, suddenly turned the jet port, and retreated in the direction of the wormhole like a tide.

They didn’t even leave any troops behind, it looked like an abrupt flee!

Many people are confused about the situation, and have not received new instructions, and even catch up with them from the tail, preparing to beat the dog in the water.

“Not good! Let all the fleets stop pursuing and retreat immediately!” Gillard shouted with sweat on his forehead.

If he had only a vague guess when this thing first appeared, then now, the opponent’s abnormal withdrawal will undoubtedly increase the possibility of that guess!

Although he is not an astrophysicist, as a senior fleet commander, he has no lack of knowledge of the various celestial bodies in the Universe.

Therefore, he knew that in the evolution of Star, white dwarfs would not be the final stage…

And in the series of “evolution” branches following the white dwarf, there is an ultimate meaning that directly refers to “art”…

And if that’s the case…

Girard didn’t even dare to imagine, but was crazy and ordered the fleet to retreat at full speed.

It’s just… the evacuation of thousands of warships can be done in a short while.

Before all the line fighters returned to the wormhole, and most of them were stranded in the battlefield, the white dwarf star, which was just as gentle as a quiet big light bulb, suddenly became restless!

Its light began to flicker, and the surrounding magnetic field suddenly became disordered.

“Master… Your Excellency! Detected a sudden violent energy fluctuation inside the white dwarf. Our scientists said that it is likely to be… carbon fusion!”

The news made the faces of all the officers in the command room suddenly change.

The carbon nucleus of a white dwarf star does not undergo nuclear fusion in its natural state. In fact, a white dwarf star is a “fire-extinguished” old star.

But a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and Star… has never been synonymous with “moderate”.

If it is a degenerate Star, suddenly the fire of nuclear fusion is reignited…

This phenomenon has a cool name in astronomy… Supernova explosion!

“boom!”

When the dazzling light burst out in front of everyone, Gillard had already lost the ability to think. He could only look desperately at the light that represented Death and quickly flooded his own huge fleet…

The speed of the fleet’s withdrawal is certainly not as fast as the speed of light.

When the violent electromagnetic radiation irradiated the force field shield, although it did not destroy it in the first time, it continued to consume the remaining energy of the shield.

“Boom boom boom!” The mechas and fighter planes expanded and exploded under the irradiation of this intensity of energy.

And the battleship with stronger shield is still dying!

The result of cutting meat with a blunt knife is nothing more than increasing the despair of everyone inside the battleship…

“Boom!” Five minutes later, as the shield energy of a small warship bottomed out and disappeared into the Universe, there were successive explosions!

Large-scale battleships with thicker shields are still struggling to support them. If they are irradiated with this intensity of energy, as long as the reserve of energy crystals is sufficient, they will undoubtedly survive this most violent energy burst.

But half an hour later, a more deadly attack arrived, destroying their last hope!

That was the Star fragments produced after countless explosions. A large amount of iron and nickel elements flied out with the explosion, like a sharp sword, hitting the shield at nearly one-tenth the speed of light!

The shield shattered, and then the armor tore…

A more tragic explosion occurred, and the fleet of thousands of warships was almost lost under this round of impact!

The wreckage of battleships floated everywhere in the universe, and then melted into various shapes under the high temperature…

And the most eye-catching in the fleet is undoubtedly the huge “Dreadnought Battle Star”!

This fearless battle star, which consumes countless resources of Gemini and is equipped with a large number of super weapons, failed to even burst out of its full strength, and suffered a devastating blow!

The side facing the impact was like purgatory on earth, all kinds of fires and explosions completely submerged the entire hemisphere, crimson’s magma was flowing everywhere.

Today’s Fearless Battle Star is like a soldering iron that is half red!

However, with a diameter of more than 3,000 kilometers, the fearless battle star with a miserable image has become the only “shield” in this star field that can withstand such an explosion!

Including a part of the large battleship that had an independent shield system, built deep underground on the back of the battle star, and quickly saw the opportunity to hide in the shadows of the back of the fearless battle star, it became the only survivor of this disaster. By……

“Goo~” Nie Yun swallowed.

This is definitely the most gorgeous “firework” he has ever seen in his life!

Compared with the “art” of this scale, the “Pluto” project that was thrown down in the backyard of my own house is really a little bit ridiculous…

He finally understood why the Locke Consortium was clearly superior in strength, but had to let a group of vassal races continue to fight against the Gemini at attrition.

They are waiting! Wait until most of the power of civilization is gathered here, and then use this method to bury this huge fleet… in one fell swoop!
