Chapter 67: The Burning Galaxy I
Li Huamei used the "teleportation module" integrated in the "wizard" universal tool to return to the Dawn Fortress on its own before the flagship exploded - the long-term research on the combination of science and magic finally bore fruitful results, and a large number of practical magic became technology modules that ordinary people could use - so that the universal tool made by Dawn finally lived up to the name of "wizard". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This progress was made possible by the magical theories and wand-making processes of Harry's world that Lu Yuan brought back.
It's a pity that ordinary staff, mercenaries from the world of Mass Effect, are only popularized for the time being with pure technology mods, and the "Wizard" Type 7 universal tool; Members of the geel, Misaka, Greenskin, and Old Dawn can only use Type 8 and Type 9; And the highest-end "Wizard" Type 10, hand-produced by Lu Yuan, was only distributed to the core members of the Dawn Regiment.
"Is there something wrong?" Li Huamei stopped unbuttoning her cloak and looked at Leona who came in and asked.
"Two pieces of good news...... Perhaps. Leona looked a little happy, a little helpless. The good news is that the Sea Blue Kingdom has surrendered to us in its entirety! The exact reason for this is unknown, but you can finally breathe a sigh of relief, Commander, they have a population of 70 billion! β
"It's so nice, I'll make you tea." Li Huamei was in a good mood, she casually threw her cloak aside and walked towards the place where the tea set was placed.
In the past eight months, although on the surface - every time Mona and other soldiers of the new galaxy fight against the Dawn Fang, hundreds of millions of people will be killed! The Dawn, on the other hand, lost only ships and not men each time - it seemed to take a big advantage.
But in fact, because of the serious imbalance in the population resources of the two sides, the attendance rotation rate of the front-line personnel on the Dawn's side is 5, while the front-line personnel of the main force of the new galaxy such as the Mona people have an attendance rotation rate of only 3.1! And the logistics on this side of the new galaxy have been integrated in wartime, and the attendance rotation rate of ordinary people is 1.7. If it weren't for the fact that the population of the six surrendering countries had already been absorbed, the Dawn would have had a higher rate of attendance rotation.
The initial battle, due to the exhaustion of the personnel, almost led to the failure of the overall strategy of the Great March, if it were not for the Geth's extraordinary ability to resist pressure.
Now both sides are in a constant cycle of producing, fighting, and destroying, and the Dawn side is more "tired" than the New Galactic side as a whole.
"What's the second piece of good news?" After placing two cups of emerald tea on the coffee table and inviting Leona to sit down, Li Huamei asked with a smile.
"Stellar Furnace No. 25 declares its surrender to us......"
"Woo~" Li Huamei covered her mouth, and the tea she had just drunk in her mouth almost squirted out. "What did you say?!"
Leona was also a little helpless, "I've said that it's not necessarily good news. β

The stellar furnace is not a cabbage on the side of the road, but a super artificial celestial body fueled by stars!
It's more than a light-year in diameter and has a mass of more than hundreds of galaxies combinedβa superstructure that is indescribable to the limits of human imagination! It is the most brilliant and important civilization crystallization in the uninterrupted hundreds of millions of years of development of the new galaxy!
Moreover, the stellar furnace not only represents the crystallization of industry and technology, it is itself a combination of energy and production, and it is also the most important node of the new galaxy. The energy of each stellar furnace will be supplied to hundreds of billions of nearby galaxies for free for development and exploration...... However, this was of little use to the Dawn's side.
First of all, the industrial systems of the two sides are not on the same technology tree at all, and even if they occupy each other's stellar furnace production bases, they cannot be used immediately - as for spending hundreds of years to study and re-industrial transformation, it is better to build a new one; Secondly, in terms of the energy provided by the stellar furnace, the city of dawn is no less impressive.
In fact, both sides are in a state of energy overflow, and the excess energy is useless.
The main goal of occupying the opponent's stellar furnace is to curb the opponent's productivity, control the nearby population, and destroy the neutron production base on the stellar furnace - these materials are mainly used to make the Silver Heart Prison and the neutron warship - you don't think that digging shovel "soil" on a white dwarf is neutron material, right? In fact, less than 3% of the material composition of white dwarfs is pure neutrons (two lower quarks and one upper quark).
And then there's the problem of regular arrangements -- like carbon, the atoms are called coal, the diamonds are diamonds, and the spherical ones with 60 vertices and 32 faces are called carbon-60. Similarly, neutrons have the problem of their arrangement. Only through nano braiding technology, a neutron and a neutron placement of woven products, is a qualified neutron material.
The Stellar Furnace, Dawn, has occupied four of them, but none of them have been able to capture them. Either blow themselves up or be destroyed, and the aliens have the courage to succeed if they don't succeed - and you just said you got me another one?
"It's Reimu......" Leona replied, and the two of them were speechless, and then they decided not to take it seriously...... It's not surprising that Reimu's group got anything, and it's the same if they lost it. The fact that the stellar furnace fell into their hands did not mean that it fell into the hands of the dawn party.
Different.
Don't expect too much, just be happy.
"Let's talk about other ......" but a prompt sound of "Di" interrupted the idle relationship between the two again.
"It looks like we can't talk," Leona smiled bitterly after reading the message sent, "They grabbed another one!" β

"Stellar Furnace 24! Stellar Furnace No. 24! Listen, the 25th has fallen into my hands, and you are limited to surrender immediately, surrender immediately! Otherwise, I'll blow myself up! Do you understand? Surrender now or blow yourself up! You guessed it, I've got the key, and I've found the red self-destruct switch! β
A girl's voice, echoing across the stellar's high-speed communication network, scared the entire new galaxy away!
Especially when that voice sounded so young...... You must know that even the stellar furnace is controlled by the invaders is not so terrifying, because they are sane adults! But if the nuclear button is in the child's hand, I ask you if you are afraid?!
Didn't you say that the stellar furnace can only be reduced to stars and ruins, and will not explode? That's right, because the tipping point for the stellar furnace to explode (effectively collapsing into a black hole) is too high for any conventional weapon attack to cause the stellar furnace to explode itself.
However, the stellar furnace does have a process of self-detonation, which can lead to an irreversible collapse of the stellar furnace through a series of complex operations...... The switch is in a prominent position on the control tower, and the key is in God's hand! Obviously, this self-detonation is not actually aimed at a war between mortals, its goal is in case it escapes the main god!
Now this key link is in the hands of a little girl - as for where did Hakuri Reimu get the key?
Tip one, the dream god Valmina, who was killed by Lu Yuan, is also one of the "gods" of this world; Tip 2, the unlucky Gensokyo Girl Celestial Group is robbing all over the new galaxy......
Not to mention that the No. 24 Stellar Furnace Command Center looked stunned when she heard the "self-explosion threat", even the No. 25 Stellar Furnace that she announced to occupy did not agree with her statement! To use a vulgar analogy: "Do you think that if you stick JJ in the soil, you will be QJ on Earth?" "The diameter of a stellar furnace is one light-year (950 million billion kilometers), which is the size of 400 million or 4 billion Earths, and affects the lives of hundreds of billions of people...... Reimu and the others have less than 500 people, and they occupy only one command room, or one among hundreds of thousands.
Is this called occupation?
But with the flood of information: "I can't cut off the connection network from the A447 control room!" ", "We're repulsed", "They're trying to start a self-destruct!" "Thank God for stopping ......", "Oh my God, they tried again!" ββ¦β¦
The Commander of Stellar Furnace 25 was heartbroken.
"Aren't they making threatening broadcasts? Why start the self-detonation now! Why? I need more psychological evaluation! The Commander roared.
But he was immediately roared back by his subordinates, "First of all, she is a woman, and a woman's mood is like the weather!" Second, she is a child, and the joy and sorrow of children riding horses have become obsessed at all - now you are riding a horse and let me guess what a girl thinks! β
If Lu Yuan was here, he would definitely tell him why Reimu would try to blow himself up without warning - because the bear child owes ......
"So what do we do?"
ββ¦β¦ Surrender. The commander threw his hat on the console in frustration, "There are 700 million people working in the furnace, 4,000 habitable planets around it, and 220 billion people living on them...... We can't afford to take that risk. When I contacted those children, they said that we have nothing to do with the Mona, we will give them whatever they want, and we can take whatever they want! Oh, and from now on, she will be our princess, and they are always welcome at furnace 25...... Just don't push the damn button! β
"That's it? What if she just wanted the Zero Furnace? β
The commander looked at his men as if he were looking at a piece of waste.
"This is the NTU machine! And so cumbersome that you can't even move a micron! Think about it with your ass, whose girl would want this kind of thing! β
*****
Stellar Furnace 25 surrendered.
Forty minutes later, Furnace 24 also raised a huge white flag and announced its surrender - it took 10 minutes to decide to surrender and 30 minutes to make a white flag that could be seen from a light year away.
"Haha, that's great!" The entire galaxy reverberated with Reimu's smug laughter, and then everyone heard the girl say. "Did you hear the 23rd, the 23rd? The 24th has already surrendered, if you don't hurry, I'll blow myself up on the 24th! β
β¦β¦ Countless people collapsed along with it.
After a long time, the threatened Stellar Furnace Commander 23 explained through the communication network, "I'm sorry ma'am, you don't have the key to Furnace 24, that furnace won't explode." And the self-explosion of Furnace 25 will not affect us here - so 23 declares to resist to the end. β
"Well," the girl readily agreed, "it seems that you are a qualified soldier." β
β¦β¦ 24 hugged the commander of the 25th stove and wept bitterly.
"But you reminded me," Reimu said cheerfully, "although the 25th can't blow up the 23rd, we can blow up the 26th (the 25th stove is 24 and 26 on both sides)!" β
"Number 26! Number 26! Pretending to be dead is useful, resisting to the end is a dead end, I declare you to surrender immediately, surrender immediately! β
