Chapter 740: Subatomic Light Cannon
In the face of this menacing iron ball, Zhang Yuan did not expect this to happen, so he could only scold in his heart.
However, when you come out on a combat mission, you always need to take risks.
The commander, General Guo Wenhao, was full of excitement and hurriedly shouted: "Attention all spaceships, enter the warp speed state at the fastest speed!" Return to the Kyushu Battle Star! ”
"Team D-113 drops EMP weapons and large flashbang grenades!"
After sending this command, in just a few seconds, one after another electromagnetic pulse bombs bloomed in the universe, and the electromagnetic pulse even blocked all the communication signals of their own side. In the past, after the electromagnetic waves were shielded, people could still use lasers or neutrinos to communicate, but at present, when many functions are disabled, this command is already the final order, and the rest of the aircraft carrier is immediately disconnected.
The spacecraft flying outside quickly withdrew and fled.
The launch of a large flashbang completely illuminated the menacing afterimage.
Immediately afterwards, General Guo once again sent an order to everyone in the aircraft carrier: "Attention soldiers, the enemy spacecraft may have high-strength materials beyond our expectations, give priority to using subatomic ray cannons for shooting!" The current task is to turn on the curvature engine as soon as possible and shake off the opponent's attack. ”
"The engine crew is ready, and it is expected to take fifteen minutes to be able to enter the faster-than-light state."
The subatomic light cannon is a newly developed weapon of war, and its principle is to fire a series of subatomic lasers, which are close to the speed of light, and are far more powerful than traditional laser and ion cannons.
Because after the subatomic light cannon hits the target, it will induce the occurrence of quark-level nuclear reactions.
Even in the face of unconventional materials without atomic nuclei, it can still trigger quark reactions and disrupt strong interactions.
So even materials with strong interactions, in the face of such weapons, will be directly destroyed.
The only drawback is that subatoms are too short-lived and can only be extended by relativistic effects at close to the speed of light.
This shortcoming led to a shorter range of the light cannon. And it has a high energy consumption, much higher than a laser, and the cooling time of weapons and equipment is longer than that of a laser.
The iron ball in the screen was attacking at high speed, its speed was getting faster and faster, and from such a distance, under a dense round of blows, it only hit one shot, and it was just a little aftermath scratch.
But it was just such a scratch that caused a big explosion on the surface of the iron ball.
It seemed to pause, but it didn't seem to hurt its vitality, and it quickly regrouped and rushed towards it with great vigour.
"The subatomic beam works! But...... The hit rate is too low. ”
Zhang Yuan didn't have joy in his heart, because in a short period of time, this high-energy weapon needed to be cooled down, and there was no way to launch it again.
The curvature engine of the aircraft carrier has been officially started, and in just ten minutes, the spacecraft will be able to enter the sub-light state.
"Wait a minute, follow this trend...... We can't seem to escape, we will be overtaken! ”
A computing expert suddenly noticed something, "183 seconds, 182 seconds, 181 seconds...... To correct it, there are still 163 seconds, 162 seconds...... We'll be caught up in 159 seconds! ”
Even with a curvature engine, acceleration takes time, and it is not possible to exceed the speed of light all at once. And the acceleration of the other side is too fast, much higher than that of the human aircraft carrier.
"What did you say?!" General Guo's eyes widened.
"I mean, with this trend, it's hard for us to run away! The other side will bump into us! ”
There was an instant commotion in the conference room.
General Guo immediately decided, "Then use the spare escape spaceship...... Some of you leave first, using this ship as bait. ”
However, the engine and acceleration of the spare spaceship are similar to that of the aircraft carrier, and when the time comes, it will only depend on luck whether the iron ball will pursue the escape ship.
Zhang Yuan also thought about retreating at first, but when he saw this result, he suddenly stood in place again.
He stood in front of everyone and shouted: "Don't panic, everyone, it is indeed necessary to evacuate some people, but we are not without the strength to fight!" ”
"Did you see that? There is only one iron ball that can fly now, which means that it ...... As soon as we get rid of it, all that's left is fish on the chopping board! ”
Everyone was stunned and looked at him in disbelief.
Zhang Yuan waved his hand and hurriedly explained: "Since we can't escape, let's kill it here!" ”
"If you think about it, the von Neumann probes in the silver-white square are incomplete and haven't been built yet, so they can't fly."
"But now, there is a complete Von Neumann probe capable of flying...... Why? It is likely to be the one that came to the planet in the first place and caused chaos in the Thor civilization! There's only one! ”
"Kill it right here!"
Zhang Yuan waved his hand fiercely, "As long as you kill it, the most high-end combat power of this base will be gone!" ”
The commander, General Guo Wenhao, licked his dry lips and reacted instantly.
"Makes sense...... This iron ball is the last weapon of the strong artificial intelligence, and it will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary. Otherwise it would have flown out long ago. ”
"But how do you kill it? Our current subatomic ray cannon is still in a cooling state, and if it is forcibly used, it will have to explode. ”
With an ordinary laser, the effect doesn't seem to be very great.
If the aircraft carrier is hit by this iron ball, will it be destroyed in an instant? Theoretically, no, this aircraft carrier is 15 kilometers long, and its ability to resist strikes is still good, and in a cosmic vacuum, even if it is a large-yield nuclear bomb, it is difficult to destroy the aircraft carrier at one time.
And running away won't solve the problem, once that iron ball follows and runs above the Kyushu, it may cause even more chaos. Although an aircraft carrier is not as good as a serious battle star, it has 100,000 soldiers who are the most elite of the new human civilization and hemispheric civilization, and all kinds of weapons and equipment are also brought together, so simply fight it here!
"Actually, we still have a ...... back"
Zhang Yuan patted his power armor, swallowed hard, and turned his head to see a certain weapon hidden behind the door of the captain's room, and his heart jumped to his throat.
Hidden there is the hole card of humanity - high-dimensional fragments.
In order to prevent unknown risks, humans also carry that high-dimensional fragment. At the time of the initial departure, no one knew whether human weapons would be able to destroy the probe, but high-dimensional fragments would definitely be able to!
For so many years, scientists have been cracking high-dimensional fragments. It's just a pity that the generational gap between the two sides is too poor, even if there is a living sample in front of them, human beings still haven't cracked the mystery.
Therefore, some weapons experts simply took advantage of some of its properties to create an electromagnetic cannonball.
As long as the high-dimensional fragments obtain a certain amount of energy, the high-dimensional space hidden behind them will be opened for a period of time.
When the time comes, the distorted space will forcibly suck things around it in. This absorption comes from the power of the space itself, and it is difficult for the material to resist this absorption, no matter how strong it is. In particular, some space technologies are even more difficult to resist.
"The risk is still very high......
Just when General Guo was still hesitating, a hemisphere commander suddenly stood up and said frantically: "Start a war, start a war with it here!" In fact, even if we retreat, it won't be of much use. Because in addition to antimatter, we already carry the most high-end weapons. If we can't destroy this iron ball, it will be difficult for Battlestar to destroy it. ”
"What's more, we're about to be caught up by each other. The acceleration of this iron ball is too high. ”
"No matter what, the other party's technology is far superior to ours, rather than bringing the risk back, it is better to fight it here!"
