1868. Polar Research Institute

"Death Star...Death Star..." Tang Xiao leaned on the sofa and muttered to himself.

After a long time, he suddenly stood up, spoke to his assistant, and walked towards his exclusive space port. Within a moment, the 20-meter-long, dagger-shaped Sith exclusive fighter "Red Comet" flew out of space. The airport soon left the gravity well and entered hyperspace.

Hoth is a snow-covered planet located in a remote area on the edge of the Milky Way, close to the planet Bespin.

In the original plot, this planet can be said to be famous because the Battle of Hoth broke out here. The Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance fought here. The Empire also invested a large number of army troops including AT-ATs. Landed and ultimately destroyed the Rebel Alliance base here.

The famous X-Wing tripped up the long legs of an AT-AT walker with a grappling hook, which happened during the Battle of Hoth.

But now, this still desolate planet is destined to no longer have a rebel base. But similarly, the planet Hoth may be remembered in another way in the future.

The Red Comet was blocked by the hyperspace blocker, and then Tang Xiao entered his permission identification code into the navigation system, and then he was able to enter hyperspace again.

If it were anyone else, they could only be blocked here, or have these hyperspace blockers destroyed. And in this case, it will also provide people on the planet Hoth with enough time to warn.

The Red Comet entered the planet Hoth, where the coordinates displayed on the navigation system have been changed to the Natural Science Expedition Team of the Principality of Dawn and the Polar Research Institute.

According to the navigation information, the Red Comet entered the atmosphere. The spacecraft flew in an extremely cold environment where the average temperature could reach minus 60 degrees. There were snowstorms almost everywhere, and strong winds mixed with ice continued to blow against the shield of the spacecraft. , even the shield reacted, causing a wave of ripples.

In such an environment, most organisms cannot survive.

However, the Creator still left a little exception on this planet...

In a place in the northern hemisphere, there is a warm current passing through, and the average temperature in this area will rise to minus 30 degrees, and the wind and snow are light, so it is still possible to survive here. This place is also the location where the Rebel Alliance built its base in the original plot.

Now, the Principality of Dawn has established a large-scale underground research base here, claiming to be a polar research institute for studying the ecology of extremely cold environments.

But in fact……

Tang Xiao flew the spacecraft from a hidden entrance into one of the mountains, continued to descend, and stopped on a platform.

This is a huge base built under a mountain! It is not only a research base, but also an engineering base and manufacturing base! !

And here is where Tang Xiao studies ways to fight the Death Star! It is also the biggest secret project of Dawn Principality at present.

The manager of the base had been informed of Tang Xiao's personal arrival. When he stepped off the spacecraft, more than a dozen scientists and engineers came to greet him. There are humans and Salarians among them, which is normal for a scientific research team, but surprisingly, there are several Vathians among them!

"Sir Governor, I'm sorry we didn't know you were here to inspect in person..." The leader, a human scientist in his fifties, stepped forward to greet him.

Tang Xiao waved his hands impatiently and said: "No need for these false politenesses, Professor Bilephi Tony. I need to know more practical things. Now the danger is getting closer and closer. According to intelligence, the Galaxy Empire's star-destroying weapon The preliminary design has been completed and should have entered the construction stage. There is not much time left for us."

The scientist named Bilefe Tony nodded and said: "We are already doing our best to carry out research and development, but the problem before us is not the workload, but the lack of that last flash of inspiration."

"Show me." Tang Xiao said as he walked towards the depths of the base. It was not his first time here, so he naturally knew how to go. Others quickly followed.

Bilefe Tony followed closely beside Tang Xiao and said: "We have not yet solved the problem of super-light navigation, whether it is hyperspace or warp speed. The current experiments are not ideal."

"What's the difficulty?" Tang Xiao asked as he entered a huge laboratory.

"There are some differences in the cosmological constants in the database, which makes it impossible for us to reproduce the situation in the original design where we can directly launch a cross-galaxy strike." Bilefe-Tony said, calling up a simulation result on the computer.

I only see a light point flying out on the screen, and a large amount of data is constantly changing around it, indicating that the flight of this light point is not a simple flight, but is simulating a complex process.

Then the light spot kept flying like this. At a place in the middle, the data displayed around it suddenly increased and became more complicated. The countless numbers were completely dizzying. But the light spot was still flying at a constant speed, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing this, even a layman like Tang Xiao knew that the simulation test had failed.

"This is the result after we launch a nuclear bomb according to the method in the database. About three hundred thousand years later, this nuclear bomb can hit the planet Coruscant." Bilefe-Tony said.

"In the database, the universe where this technology is located is not much different from now. We can even build Ragnaroff-class Titan battleships and Ankeron-class Titan battleships. Why can't we complete the construction of the Death Star cannon?" ?" Tang Xiao looked a little unhappy.

That's right! The Death Star cannon was Tang Xiao’s answer to the threat of the Death Star from the Galactic Empire!

This super weapon in "Sins of a Solar Empire" is a terrifying device that can span countless planetary systems and launch bombings on another area of ​​the galaxy!

Although the names are similar, the advantages and disadvantages of the Death Star cannon are obvious compared to the Death Star. The Death Star must fly to the target galaxy through hyperspace navigation, then approach the target planet and emit destructive rays to directly destroy the planet.

The Death Star cannon, on the other hand, can use an extremely huge accelerator to launch an equally powerful shell tens of thousands of light years away, making it impossible to prevent it.

Relatively speaking, the Death Star had to be charged into battle, so a large number of defensive facilities were designed to protect it. The Death Star cannon is very safe and can be fired from a long distance. If the opponent wants to fight back, it must hit all the way to the hinterland of the Principality of Dawn!

But correspondingly, the Death Star cannon does not have the ability to destroy a planet. It can only ensure that it continuously fires powerful shells to harass, and can threaten almost every planet in the galaxy!
