Chapter 32: A String of Firecrackers

The praying mantis got closer to the water droplets, and Ding Yi remembered that after hibernation, he could still teach quantum physics.

This theoretical knowledge has not advanced in the slightest in two centuries.

Tomoko is also blocking the earth's technology!

The surface of the water droplets reflected the shadow of the Praying Mantis, and the crystal smooth lines did not look like a detector at all, but a work of art, and researcher Xizi exclaimed:

"These are tears, tears of the Virgin!"

The human beings on the ground also saw such a scene, and the strangeness between humans and the three-body problem disappeared, and the sense of hostility also disappeared.

In the indifferent universe, it seems that the two civilizations have shifted from confrontation to communication.

But Ding Yi knew that the flight speed of this probe was faster than that of the fastest stellar spacecraft on Earth.

And with its small size, the engine and fuel for flying between stars are far beyond human imagination.

"It's so slippery that you can't feel a bit of friction!"

Researcher Xizi stroked the water droplets through the spacesuit and exclaimed, such a smooth surface is clearer than a mirror.

"It's not right, it's at absolute zero on the surface, but there's still an engine in it, is it some kind of insulation? It passed through two dust belts, how could it be that there were no scratches at all? Ding Yi frowned.

A microscope was brought in, and the lens was aimed at the surface of the water droplet, but the magnified image was still a smooth mirror, which was not scientific.

The magnification goes from 100 times, to 1,000 times, to 10,000 times, and finally 10 million times, which is presented in the electronic tunnel tube, which is of course a smooth mirror.

Absolute zero can be reached by human beings, and that is compression, constant compression, the movement of molecules disappears, and absolute zero is reached, but most of it is gas.

Smooth mirrors are also achieved by humans, but they cannot be smooth mirrors after 10 million times, and humans know an object with an absolutely smooth plane, that is, neutron stars.

Neutron stars are the densest stars other than black holes, reaching more than 100 million tons per cubic centimeter, which is the density of atomic nuclei.

If the Earth also becomes a neutron star, then the diameter of the Earth is only 22 meters, and in the constant compression, the electrons of the atoms are squeezed into the nucleus, combined with protons, and converted into uncharged neutrons.

But it is clear that the mass of this water droplet detector is wrong, it is not compressed, otherwise nearby fleets would be attracted by its gravity.

"Looks like it's time for the easy way to quizz!"

Ding Yi said calmly, he went to find a geological hammer and smashed it against the water droplets.

But under the electron microscope, the smashed area is still smooth, Ding Yi said:

"Then eliminate all possibilities, what remains is the strong interaction force, which nails the molecules to death, and its own vibration disappears, so it will be at absolute zero, even if it is hit by light, it will not raise its own temperature!"

Ding Yi's face changed drastically: "It's not the tears of the Holy Mother, its strength is ten thousand times higher than the strongest substance in the solar system!" Any substance is as fragile as paper! It's just used to show the arrogant power of the Trisolarans! โ€

What do you have to do with destroying you!

"Fleet! Run! โ€

Ding Yi shouted, but it was too late, and in the Three-Body Expeditionary Force two light years away, the Three-Body Commander watched everything.

Ten droplets were launched in separate batches, arriving in the solar system before them, and the first droplet had two missions.

The first is to destroy the stellar-class human spacecraft, and the second is to block the sun's radio wave amplification function. Wanshulou

And now the first mission of the droplet has started, and inside the droplet, twelve force field warp engines are activated, and they release a strong force to lock the shell.

In addition to the nucleus, the outer shell metal also has field electrons, but under strong force, these electrons become a rain of electrons in the quantum state.

These electronic rains collapse at a precise time, flowing along the shell of the water droplet to the tip of the tail.

These gathered electrons are compressed extremely tightly, resulting in a strong repulsive force that forms an electron vortex ring that proppels the water droplets.

After the vortex ring is released, the electrons lose energy and return to the quantum state back to the head of the water droplet, where they continue to the next round of propulsion.

That's why water droplets don't need a lot of fuel.

Ding Yi and the others only saw a ring of light from the tail of the water droplet, which was as hot as a star, and instantly burned the research team to ashes.

The heat melted the Mantis instantly, then exploded and disappeared in front of the fleet.

The water droplet accelerates for the second time in the explosion.

The second-accelerated water droplet has turned on attack mode, and it is completely impossible for radars to detect it, and with the help of the pitch-black cosmic background, it is difficult for optical telescopes to capture its location.

"Wipe out the human fleet to the maximum!" The Three-Body Fรผhrer ordered.

"Yes!" The water droplet receives the order and begins to turn back at the third cosmic velocity, attacking the neatly lined human fleet.

"It seems that the Trisolaran's detector blew itself up, is it going to war? What a self-defeating one! โ€

The fleet command shook his head and said, "Order the second squad to collect the debris!" โ€

But as soon as the order was given, the Infinity Frontier, in the first position of the ship, exploded, and the water droplet was like a bullet piercing the white paper, and it was punched into an even hole.

The wound was melted by the high-speed impact and the tail flame of water droplets, and in the melted wound, the red heat spread to the whole ship, burning it into a red iron block.

The alarm sounded briefly, and before the crew of the Infinity Frontier could react, they were burned to death by the heat, and their ashes were blasted into the vast universe by the exploding ship.

And the Distant Ship next to the Infinite Frontier had just received a second-level alert, and before he could react, he was attacked by water droplets.

The heat killed all the crew members within three seconds, and the explosion reappeared.

Before the rest of the ships could observe, they heard sirens and cries for help, unable to detect where the attack had come from, disappeared, or needed to be guarded.

The neatly arranged fleet, now think of a string of firecrackers, even if each of them is separated by a hundred kilometers, but at the speed of water droplets, it only takes three seconds.

At such a speed, although humans can achieve it, their ships need time to prepare, and at the speed of destroying a spaceship in five seconds, the water droplets begin an easy sabotage mission.

The surface of the water droplets is a metal locked by a strong force, and its hardness is a hundred, a thousand times higher than the hardness of a ship.

For a simple example, the hardness of graphite is 1, the hardness of tungsten steel is 9, and the steel only needs to be smashed into powder with a light stroke.

And that's just a 9-fold difference.

The gap between the water droplets and the human fleet is hundreds of times bigger than this!

The world's martial arts, only fast and unbreakable, only strong and unbreakable, water droplets for human beings, is the suppression of speed and firmness.

Zhang Xuan and Rediaz watched all this, the originally lively contact plan was now miserable, and many ships had begun to move, but it was too late.
