Chapter 222: The Sleepless Battle 8

"They are so kind that in order to prevent several of your civilizations from being killed, they will put the safety of their own civilization at risk, and desperately suppress the nanobots that will expose you because of changing the environment?"

Sima Tianzhi didn't believe that the earth civilization could always encounter that kind civilization with abnormal thinking, and besides, it didn't have to be so troublesome to save other civilizations, as long as everyone was loaded into the spaceship, and then fired with all his might, wouldn't it be more convenient?

"It's not wrong to say that it's for the sake of our civilizations not to be destroyed, but the main thing is because of the need for victory." Kumerbis pointed to the sea of monsters around him, "It is said that when the other party first entered here, it was almost destroyed under the combined attack of the third and fourth civilizations. ”

Qian smiled and said, "Huh? Are our third and fourth civilizations that strong? There are hundreds of thousands of monsters out there, to say the least. And it's already almost there, why is it that now that the First Civilization and you are added, this one has not been almost solved, and it has become a complete solution? ”

"That's why the First Civilization is trying to block the effects of nanobots." A look between anger and helplessness appeared on Kumerbis's face, "The individual combat strength of the other civilization is already quite strong, but they are a civilization that is unwilling to fight with their own lives. The way to fight is to use the resources around you to create countless creatures to fight in their place. When the Third and Fourth Civilizations confronted them head-on, the seeds of combat creatures they had quietly sown had already matured, and they caught the combined forces of the Third and Fourth Civilizations by surprise. However, with the increasing number of combat creatures, the third and fourth civilizations, not to mention attacking, even defense became extremely difficult. If it weren't for the fact that the First Civilization entered in time and then interfered with the operation of the nanobots with electromagnetic fields, I'm afraid that every inch of space here would have been filled with the opposing party's combat creatures right now. ”

"Wait, you can be clear. It's understandable that they fight with creatures they make, but what is the connection between making creatures and nanobots that alter the environment? ”

"The nature of nanobots here, the principle. Whether all matter is nanobots. Energy sources for nanobots...... We don't know at all. But the other party's civilization does not seem to be as ignorant as we are, but it has released the mother body of the creature, and the world has become the most suitable environment for its survival according to the mother's thinking. It's like throwing a queen ant into the desert, and the environment that should have caused the queen to die immediately suddenly becomes a comfortable ant burrow. So far, it's been normal, but this queen's burrow doesn't stop at the similarity of the environment, and it is strange that the queen ant has conjured food that shouldn't exist. With the right environment and unlimited food, you should understand why this is happening, right? ”

"That's why the First Civilization now has the practice of ending the queen's burrows and food...... "I don't know when, Qiu Yu's brows have been tightly locked, "What can be solved with a dollar, absolutely no one will invest all the family property." Rather than smashing up their ships, the First Civilization chose to pay huge losses to limit the development of the other side, which only means that they believe that their fleet has no chance of winning against the creatures that are developing here at full speed. That alone shows how strong our opponents are. But even so, the number of monsters that appear here is terrifying...... The most important question is, how long will the First Civilization's restrictions on nanobots last? ”

"The best is forever, the worst is the next second." Kumerbis thought it was strange, and just seeing Qiu Yu have a little doubt, he let himself appear as if he had obtained a great fortune. Shaking his head to dispel this inexplicable amusement feeling, Kumerbis said solemnly, "The nanobots here are not technology that we, or even the First Civilization, can understand. Whether it is high temperature, crushing, electromagnetism, or freezing, it only temporarily destroys the material form composed of nanobots, and cannot harm them at all. Therefore, it is now limited by the continuous electromagnetic field emitted by the First Civilization, and if something goes wrong with the First Civilization and the electromagnetic field is interrupted, then our destruction is likely to be only a matter of moments. ”

Su Hao desperately thought about the chance to win, "Since the production of combat creatures has been restricted, as long as the spaceship above kills all the combat creatures that can fly, we can be invincible, right?" ”

Cumerbis shook her head, "It's not that easy. Among the combat creatures attacking the First Civilization ships, there is a creature that has a similar protective color of invisibility, and can only be spotted by relying on the rapidly changing light to make them change color without haste. The range of light is limited, and it is only effective when it is very close to the ship, so the actual number of such creatures is not known at all, leaving us completely passive in the formulation of plans. ”

"This is unreasonable." Sima Tianzhi pushed his glasses, "If you say that you are behaving like this now, it is because it is barely understandable that the energy is used to support the electromagnetic field, but the dignified interstellar-level spaceship does not even have the ability to detect the enemy, this is ridiculous too much, right?" ”

Cumerbis seemed reluctant to talk about this important issue involving the power of civilization, but after a brief silence, he reluctantly said, "Not all living things follow the path of electromechanics like us. You think that having a ship is powerful, just because you haven't seen a powerful civilization in other paths. In the universe, even if the paths of development are different, the power of the sword and shield is always balanced in civilizations of the same level...... Use this as the first premise to answer your question. ”

"Under this premise, the detection methods include optical detection, acoustic detection and thermal detection."

"The so-called optical detection is to use the eyes and various imaging systems to directly rely on the emission of light to observe the target. This is the most commonly used means of detection in the entire universe. In response to such means, stealth technology is available. Now you have seen that both we and those in the heavens can have such technology. ”

"Acoustic detection relies on the reflection of sound waves from the target object to detect each other, and this detection method has a huge disadvantage - it cannot be used in the universe. And even in an environment where it can be used, it will be useless because of its low efficiency, as long as the target is not too slow, the position detected by the sound wave will always lag behind its actual position. Therefore, there is no need to think about the method of sound wave detection, as long as it naturally becomes faster on the road of development. ”

"Thermal detection is a very practical way to detect. Whether it is an organism or a mechanical creation, as long as it is producing energy, it will generate heat. And the technology of completely isolating heat dissipation, even advanced civilizations cannot completely do it, and can only be minimized. So theoretically, as long as the thermal detection device is fine enough, it can detect anything that is worth probing. But the same problem is here. If it's too subtle, you'll detect things you don't need, especially on planets. Therefore, the way to deal with thermal energy detection is not to have no heat divergence at all, but to keep your heat synchronized with the surrounding environment. Now, if our First Civilization uses thermal detection to find those invisible things, then they can only see a mixed thermal background. ”

"And then there's the premise of the correspondence of the mid-level civilization battle."

"Perhaps you would think that with Starfleet, you would have a huge advantage over enemies on the surface of the planet. But this is only a relative advantage, not an absolute advantage. It is true that the weapons on the planet are either too powerful to threaten the ship after breaking through gravity and atmosphere, or they are too powerful, resulting in low frequency, and because of the excessive energy response, they will be easily detected, evaded, or destroyed. The only one that can fight Starfleet in the most economical way is Starfleet. But this is a high-quality duel after all, destruction against destruction. ”

"To put it simply, the role of Starfleet is to deter and destroy opponents. So to destroy a planet, just drive the fleet over and pour the firepower down. But to occupy a planet, it is still necessary to rely on ground forces. In fact, all wars are for profit, and it is almost impossible for something like the kind of thing that drives an interstellar fleet to directly destroy the planet, otherwise no matter how powerful a civilization is, it will collapse itself. ”

"Back to the question of the fleet to the fleet. The main combat opponent of the fleet is the fleet, and the thickness of the armor, the energy level of the weapons, and the way of detection are all considered to fight the enemy's fleet. In fleet warfare, the most commonly used and best detection method is space mass detection. ”

"In a certain range of the universe, mass objects do not appear out of thin air. So as long as a starship appears, it will definitely be discovered. This error-free detection technology is fully applied to starships, making it easy for any starship to find enemies. However, this method of detection can only be used because of the emptiness of the universe, and on planets with dense masses, it is like looking for a light source that suddenly appears in the darkness to being placed in countless light sources, and the task of finding a new light source is almost impossible. ”

"So if you want to talk about comprehensive capabilities, space mass detection is as bad as acoustic detection, but if you want to talk about the most practical capabilities, it can be said that the most perfect with space mass detection on a starship."

"I see." Sima Tianzhi was still looking at the sky, but his gaze moved from the starry sky to the flying saucer, "You mean to say that starships exist to fight starships, even if they can be used for ground battles, but there will be no special configuration for ground battles." But...... The missile may have a lack of finesse when targeting mosquitoes, but it is unlikely to be less powerful. There is no need to occupy this place, why don't they just bomb with all their might, but give up their advantage to restrict what nanobots? I don't believe that anything that can destroy planets really can't deal with the monsters out there under normal circumstances. ”
