Chapter 150: Vanguard Fleet
Whether a civilization is advanced or not can be linked to the energy resources that the civilization has at its disposal. The higher the energy level controlled by a civilization, the more advanced and developed the civilization becomes. Of course, the control here is free control, and control is used for production and construction, not simply destruction. It is never easier to destroy than to build, and it is definitely not destruction but construction that determines the level of civilization.
As long as the energy is high enough, the civilization has enough momentum. Take the earth as an example, in the very early stage of human civilization on the earth, the energy used by human beings was only the energy provided by their own body muscles. At that time, humans had to be careful even with ordinary beasts. Because the use of energy is too rudimentary, the energy under control is too weak, and the things that humans can make are very limited and rudimentary. When it comes to the use of energy such as animal power and wind power, human civilization has taken a big step forward. It is precisely because of this that mankind has stepped from the Stone Age to the Iron Age, using the energy at his disposal to invent countless tools that were impossible to invent before.
And when coal and oil have become fuels, providing fuel for civilization, human civilization has developed at a rapid pace in hundreds of years! It is also the abundant energy provided by coal and oil that has allowed human civilization to enter the fast lane unimaginable to the predecessors!
It is precisely in this way that the way energy is used and the amount of energy controlled directly determines whether the civilization is advanced or not. If it's in the Milky Way, the energy and daily maintenance costs of the eight carrier fleets can be obtained from other planetary systems. At a time when energy can only be obtained from the Earth Planet System, it is imperative to build a new space station in the outer space of the Earth Planet. Not only the outer space of the Earth Planet System, but also the outer space of other planets in the Earth Planet System also need to build energy factories that can provide sufficient energy. Only in this way can the logistics plant required for the daily maintenance of the eight aircraft carrier fleets and the replenishment of ammunition can be functional.
In addition to the need for sufficient energy, the eight aircraft carrier fleets also require massive mineral resources. If it's just ordinary minerals, the Earth Planetary System can still be satisfied, but if it's those scarce minerals, then you need to get them from other planetary systems. However, if it is only a short-term logistical supply, the Earth Planetary System can still barely maintain it for a while. And during this time, the eight aircraft carrier fleets will need to expand their forces outward to figure out whether it is safe nearby. If you encounter an enemy, you will start a war!
At this stage, the Galactic Human Legion must first gain a firm foothold and occupy a large territory with the powerful forces at its disposal. As long as the resources captured are large enough, the armies of robots and clones produced from the Robot Factory and the Clone Factory will be scattered across the planetary systems to mine the required minerals. As long as there are enough minerals and enough energy, the humans of the galaxy can gain a foothold here. At that time, even if there is friction with the local forces of this star system, even if it cannot be eliminated, it can compete with it for a long time.
Because he was worried that Wu Tian, these powerful beings with strong spiritual energy, would quietly control them, Wu Tian and many powerhouses of the Divine Descendants were very ostracized. Even if there is a meeting, it can only be held by video conference, and at most it can only be held in a conscious way.
Fortunately, the side of the Dragon Empire was originally controlled by Wu Tian and other high-level members of the Divine Descendants, and most of the middle and high-level officers of the Dragon Empire had cultivated secret methods, and their spiritual energy was not weak.
Seven days have passed, and the general direction plan has been formulated. And after seven days of spatial disorder, in the Earth Planetary System, ships can enter the curvature navigation state again! As expected, except for the Dragon Empire, the five aircraft carrier fleets of the First and Second Front armies withdrew from the Earth Planet System almost simultaneously!
In the space of seven days, through careful reconnaissance from many aspects, people have discovered a civilized planet that is only a few hundred light-years away. Although I don't know if there are interstellar branches along the way, in front of the advanced warships of the First Alliance Inquisition Aircraft Carrier Fleet, even if there is no interstellar branch in front, it can still open up a life for you! One of the starcruisers of the First Alliance has been acquired by the Dragon Empire, and at present, only the fleets of the Second Alliance are still using starships and armed ships to explore and open up interstellar branches.
This time the sortie, because it was not sure about the civilization level of the other party, the eight aircraft carrier fleets were not dispatched, but only sent a tripartite fleet led by three starcruisers. After all, the cost of starting an aircraft carrier is very large! Even if the energy source of the aircraft carrier nuclear fusion reactor is water everywhere, the nuclear fusion reactor also needs regular maintenance, and once the aircraft carrier is started, the loss of related equipment parts is very huge! Before the construction of the outer space energy plant, half of the aircraft carriers were used as temporary energy plants. After all, with enough energy, the construction of energy factories will go faster.
Because he was not sure of the other party's civilization level, in order to minimize the scale of the battle in the early stage, Wu Tian personally led the team in the form of consciousness descending, and took a total of two hundred god-descended powerhouses to explore.
With the opening of the interstellar cruisers of the Inquisition Aircraft Carrier Fleet, the Vanguard fleet is moving faster than the speed of ordinary starships entering the state of curvature. To put it another way of speaking, the tank unit drove the speed of an electric bicycle in the rainforest with high mountains and no roads under the opening of the mecha! Moreover, after the fleet passes this road, the speed will increase when it comes back to the speed of a normal motorcycle on a dirt road.
After half a month of travel, this two-hundred-light-year-long interstellar branch line was finally opened. Of course, in order to prevent accidents, near the planetary systems along the route of this interstellar feeder, the vanguard fleet has sent stationed and patrol ships to maintain the normal operation of the interstellar branch line to ensure that the back road will not be blocked by accidents.
It's just that although this interstellar branch line has opened up quickly, there is not the slightest joy on the faces of many officers in the vanguard fleet! Because the closer the distance, the more everyone can feel the anomaly of the ecological planet in the distance!
In the last few days, people were even surprised to find huge monsters that could fly quickly in the void! And these monsters can enter the state of curvature navigation just by virtue of their physical bodies!
Could it be that these monsters can actually contain a nuclear fusion reactor in their bodies? But the question is, how is it possible for the body of an organism to withstand ultra-high temperature and pressure at the level of the atomic nucleus? As for the possibility that the body of a creature is composed of superalloys? Is it possible that there are cells and genes in the body of the superalloy?
