Chapter 497: Choice

"Sage, it is impossible to deduce what exactly happened, I can only tell you that the stellar bomb is not a lie, the inner core of Ahriman is being affected, although it is much lower than we originally expected, but the helium fusion inside still makes the energy release peak exceed the normal value by a thousand times......" On board the largest command ship of the Military Command, the 'Aziz', the chief scientist of the Republic of Kezmia, Mohammad. Dr. Lavieh, watching intently in front of a holographic set of data, surrounded by Fakhl and the leaders of the Republic.

"I just want to know the exact time and the destructive power she brings! You don't need to explain the rest to me for now. Fakhl furrowed his brows, his normally calm mind churning helplessly at this point.

"At around 21 standard hours, the peak radiation will reach Ahura, and the destructive power will be ...... If it is in the radiation area, it should be said that no one will survive...... "Muhammad said.

"Even in this bunker hundreds of meters underground? You've said that no matter how tyrannical Ahriman is, the underground city will remain unaffected, and you just mentioned that the peak energy is much lower than expected. ”

"Occasional local eruptions on the surface of stars, yes, that don't have an impact on underground cities, but now it's completely different." Muhammad turned to Fakhl and patiently explained.

"Sage, it is true that the bomb did not directly hit the star, but its effective shock wave is still intervening in the inner core, and the incalculable high temperature causes the star to enter the red giant stage ahead of schedule and erupt a large amount of heat energy outward."

"Once Ahura is touched by this stellar helium flash, it will not be vaporized instantaneously as we previously expected, but will be burned by a thousand times more heat than usual, becoming a sea of fire and purgatory. Those stranded in the underground city will be roasted to death by the heat, and the whole process is obviously extremely painful and slow......" Muhammad's hands fluttered at this time, and the eyes behind the data glasses revealed a terrifying color.

"At that time, the crustal structure of Ahura will also break due to the expansion of the high temperatures, and the underground magma will break through our reinforcement layer and submerge the entire underground city......" he tried to continue describing.

"That's enough, Doctor!" Fakhl couldn't help but stop him, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the patriarchs and military leaders around him whispering.

"The facts are here, and I need an optimal plan for an early exit from the system." He asked everyone present, but the cabin was silent, and no one dared to speak.

"Sage, a ship with a Leap Engine can avoid a helium flash front, but that must be decided early, we are running out of time." Muhammad could not help but remind.

"Faris, how is the transfer from the colonial ship going?" Fakhl asked the straight Commander of the Republic standing beside him.

"Sage, we've done our best, all the ships capable of leaping are overwhelmed, and there is still a gap of about 200,000 people......" Faris' face showed no emotion.

"200,000 people?" Fakhle's brow furrowed even tighter at the moment.

"Yes, Sage, that's the limit of what we can do, given priority to young women and children." The military governor of the Republic, who was nearly sixty years old, said solemnly, his posture standing straight, and there was a sudden hesitation on his rock-like face.

"Unless......" As soon as his words came out, Fakhl interrupted him without hesitation.

"Don't talk about it, Faris, that's not on your radar!" Fakhl cut the railway.

"Yes, Sage." Hearing this, Faris immediately abandoned his attempt.

"Commander, you want to talk about the Silver Alliance ships outside the Anahi Star Gate, we can indeed ask them for help! They might be able to save these people...... I mean save us. A young officer suggested.

"Silver Alliance ships? Time does not allow for ......," Faris hesitated.

"If we had known this was the case, we should have called for help in the first place......" the young officer said again.

Fakhl noticed that everyone in the cabin was watching him, and many familiar faces showed puzzlement.

They are blaming me for being stubborn...... If they had agreed to that hypocritical rescue, everyone would have survived, and now, because of the incompetent Ahmed's self-provoking claims, so many of his people are dying here alone and helplessly.

200,000 ...... 200,000 people, he must be responsible for it! And I have to be held accountable for that......

The sun is thin, what is the reason for the world, the old man is in the bush, and the dream of his life should not forget his original intention.

Fakhl sighed in his heart at this time, he smiled faintly, and finally made up his mind at this moment,

"Faris, I'll leave the details of the retreat to you, and all ships will be ready to move towards the stargate from now on."

"Sage, do you mean......" Faris heard something from his words, and he was shocked.

"Now I'm going to see Samiel, and you can ask her about the rest of the matter, time is running out, you all take action." Fakhl issued a final order to his followers.
