After the decision to intervene, the collectors became more tasked and began to plan the creation of strategic resources, and the planets, moons and other celestial bodies in the star system, if you could directly compare their size, would be surprised to find that they were shrinking at a rate visible to the naked eye, continuing to reduce the radius at a rate of one meter per day, and organic organisms were going back and forth between the planets and the large pieces of flesh in the void in waves.

"We need them to produce a large number of strategic resources such as proton lattices and solid helium for the cluster, and by the way, the large-scale production of various live ammunition must also be ...... schedule."

"We need to speed up, we can't be as laid-back as before, we're in a hurry."

One by one, the instructions are issued, and the collectors are working in an orderly manner according to these instructions in the channel, and the large meat blocks in the universe have revealed the cylindrical prototype, which are all strong pressure giants that are being bred, and after the strong pressure giants are completed, they will produce proton lattices and solid helium in large quantities.

It is not an exaggeration to describe the rapid development of the gatherers, and even very vivid, because it is really very 'rapid', and such exaggerated industrial power is simply magic.

However, Rao is such a construction progress, and there will be individuals who have doubts.

"Is there enough time?"

"Otherwise, why do you think it takes us sixty years to reach the distance of five light years?"

This problem has caused other people to complain, and if the time it takes to build it, it would have taken five years for the gatherers to reach the nearby star system five light-years.

The individual who asked the question reacted, "Well, I misunderstood. ”

Individuals mistakenly believe that after preparing a large amount of antimatter, it is directly accelerated by antimatter to one-tenth of the speed of light, and decelerates after reaching its destination.

But in this case, the swarm will have to set out early, and at the same time, it will face various inadequacies in armament, and the gatherers will certainly not be so stupid to do such a thing.

As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not mistake the woodcutter, after the construction is completed, if you accelerate it with the star track, it can reach more than 90% of the speed of light, which can completely make up for the time consumed by the construction, and it can also have complete armed capabilities.

Gatherers aren't too stupid to know what to choose.

After the construction was arranged, it was time for the gatherers to discuss the strategic matters of the alien civilization.

"So if you want to make a black hole bomb?"

“…… Let's make some, and the number is set at hundreds. ”

"The construction of the star orbit, I think it can be directly directed to the target star construction, so that once it is completed, it does not need to waste much time to change orbits, which can greatly save our time and cost."

The proofreading of the star track is a very time-consuming and troublesome thing, there is no way to complete it without ten days and half a month, if the change is too large, it is not surprising that it will take several years to adjust the orbit, so this proposal is still very valuable.

"What is the best number of clusters to go to the target star system?"

"To get involved in the fight, of course, the more the better."

More is better – this doctrine has always been practiced by collectors, mainly because of their social structure, which is not attached to the power of the individual, but advocates the power of the collective, and the power of the collective, of course, is the stronger the more numerous.

Of course, this is without considering the concept of 'technology' in it.

The sheer number of clusters was quickly challenged by other individuals, who questioned not the 'more is better' doctrine, but the feasibility of doing so.

"There is an upper limit to the one-time delivery capacity of the Star Track."

"You can invest in several batches, and the number is set at tens of thousands, and the opponent has a star system with rich resources, at least in terms of quantity, we can't suffer."

"No, the time is too short, proton lattice, solid helium, and metallic hydrogen are okay, but the amount of antimatter produced is too small, and there is no way to meet the number of tens of thousands of individuals in such a short time, antimatter is not only used for sub-light speed deceleration, such as ship-borne sub-light speed shells, black hole bombs, and gamma-ray cannons, which all need antimatter supply."

With such a number of tens of thousands of individuals, the gatherers are fully capable of breeding, and the number of people who fought against the Serens at the beginning was exaggerated compared to this, and the number of tens of thousands was already very conservative.

But the problem is that the amount of antimatter produced is so impressive that it is basically impossible to meet the antimatter needs of tens of thousands of leaping creatures in such a short period of time.

This is not a problem that can be solved through hard work, it is a physical sense of no solution, unless the underlying technology is improved from the fundamental production technology.

And this kind of improvement is also not something that gatherers can accomplish in a short period of time.

It is with this in mind that some collectors have proposed.

"Do you want to abandon quality and increase quantity?"

"No, when the quality expands to a certain point, the quantity becomes meaningless."

Without even thinking about it, most of the subjects rejected the offer, and the gatherers understood the meaning of quality.

Thus, another point of view was established.

"Then expand the quantity on the premise of ensuring quality, and the number of individuals will be set at hundreds."

"Isn't that too little? It feels terrible. ”

Fighting in hundreds of clusters is something that has never been done in the history of a race, but if you want to ensure quality, you have to do that.

"That's better than tens of thousands of people who are not evenly armed."

In response to this problem, another gatherer proposed, "Let's call the nearest colonial star and ask them to send reinforcements." ”

"That's a good idea, but the amount of antimatter they should not be much, the number can be stacked to about two or three thousand at most, and there is still a long way to go from tens of thousands, and if you call more distant colonial stars, I'm afraid it will be more than sixty years."

"Two or three thousand is two or three thousand, if you can defeat such a number of clusters, that is the alien civilization that the race should treat seriously."

The matter of the battle is finalized, but there is one more thing that is particularly important, which must be determined and brought up by the leader of the cluster.

"That'...... If those thousands of clusters are defeated, do we need to use black hole bombs to destroy stars? ”

"Of course you have to use it, you have already decided to make and equip it, why not use it? This in itself is something that belongs to strategy. Some individuals replied without even thinking about it.

But it didn't take long for collectors to realize the problem of using black hole bombs.

"But once used, the group will get nothing, the explosion of supernova can even crush the planet into a plasma nebula, in addition, we have to give up the star system we are currently in, the killing distance of the supernova explosion is light years, five light years is too close, it is estimated that the explosion star is the center, and the stars within the range of 25 light years cannot be colonized."

To put it simply, stealing chickens is not a recipe for rice, not only is it forced to give up colonizing stars, but it even threatens the safety of interstellar routes, and the most important thing is that the race will not get anything and waste a bunch of resources, which is the most uncomfortable point.

After much discussion, the collectors finally reached an agreement.

"Depending on the situation, if the battle is defeated, try to deliver a message of peace, if the other party is unwilling to accept it, then decide to drop a black hole bomb, including the Seren people, the race has already discovered three alien civilizations, and more can be found in the future, don't care about this one, considering the threat, allow it to be destroyed."
