Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Butterfly of Death
Inside the spacecraft, 121 hours have passed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The Earth fleet has sailed 15 light-years from the Gliese 581 system.
From the curvature of space-time through a layer of chaotic jelly-like space-time faults, Noah could clearly observe the Beiluo Division with an optical telescope.
Before leaving, the fugitive government handed over all the authority of the last fleet left by the Beiluo Division to Noah, which could be regarded as a little compensation for Noah.
There are 300 Kara spaceships docked at the North Fall Division, among which the largest flagship, an Ise-class space battleship, carries the inheritance capsule and the coordinates of the air signal. Its construction scale is slightly smaller than that of Delta-class warships, and close to the standard of ultra-gamma-class warships.
However, these 300 space warships are difficult to play a role in the current situation, and the escape must continue.
The Ise-class, which acts as the coordinates of the air signal, cannot move, otherwise it will cause a "shock" in the curvature channel established between the Earth fleet and the Ise-class, causing some spaceships to be thrown out of this section of the channel with stable curvature and become headless flies scurrying around the universe at superluminal speed in advance, or they can break away from the curvature space-time and return to the outer universe, and completely fall behind behind the faster-than-light fleet.
It's a pity that Noah won't arrive at the Beiluo Division, not to mention the pursuit of Kara's fleet behind him, there may already be light particles flying towards the Beiluo Division.
The distance of the solar system from the northfall gate is much closer than that of the Gliese 581 galaxy...... Noah didn't want to face the dilemma of having pursuers behind him and a star exploding in front of him.
In fact, after knowing that the Kara civilization really had the ability to arbitrate the life of stars at any time, Noah no longer dared to get close to any star in a hundred light years.
But it also brings with it the very embarrassing fact that the spaceship needs to be resupplied.
Although Noah, who has mastered the fusion of important elements, is almost equivalent to having unlimited energy in the river system with abundant matter, there is a premise that matter must be obtained.
And this substance must be a fusionable element with atomic number before calcium.
Although elements such as hydroxide, oxygen, and silicon are abundant in any galaxy, even these most common elements become difficult to obtain in a void far away from the galaxy and only filled with interstellar media.
The interstellar medium that fills the cosmic void is mainly composed of light elements (hydrogen and helium), and the more basic the element, the more likely it is to fuse.
But in the void, where there is only an interstellar medium, matter is really thin to the extreme.
In a space of 1 cubic kilometer, not a single drop of water can be collected.
And the Earth fleet, which is moving forward in the curvature space-time, has no spare energy to collect this extremely thin matter.
The hasty escape of the Gliese 581 system did not take away too many resources, and those supply ships full of resources, due to the large scale of construction, it was difficult to break out of the chaotic war, and only a small part remained in Noah's fleet.
However, curvature navigation itself is a very energy-intensive way of sailing, and in Noah's immediate deduction, not all ships still have the strength to escape after arriving at the Beiluo Division.
Then, the hatred of the Kara civilization gave Noah a good advice.
A considerable part of the energy in the spaceship is extracted and becomes a backup of resources, and the spaceship where the energy is extracted takes away all the valuable parts such as the weapon defense system and the power system, leaving only the spaceship's repulsion field and gravitational weapons, and then throws that part of the spacecraft out of the curvature space-time in order.
As a result, there are some ships that only leave repulsion fields and gravitational weapons, blocking the path that the Kara civilization must pass to pursue the Earth fleet.
Gravity has a strong effect on the curvature of space-time, as long as the ships of the Kara civilization are close, the autologous gravitational weapons running at full power will bring an impact on their already stabilized curvature space-time, just like a train moving at full speed, and suddenly there is an incomparably hard stone on the tracks.
When the first battleship destroyed in its own gravitational weapon reported back, Noah knew that Kara's fleet had stepped on the first mine.
Unfortunately, Noah was no longer able to observe anything outside of the light grade.
Kara's fleet is not an idiot, they will definitely guard against Noah's interception methods, except for the first surprise, the remaining part of the abandoned spacecraft may not be able to achieve enough results.
But the purpose of delaying the pursuit of the Kara fleet was at least achieved.
Noah, who was sitting on the ground with his knees in his arms, slowly raised his head, closed his eyes for 100 hours, and opened them again.
The blue eyes reflecting the starry sky can no longer see a trace of emptiness and confusion, some are just as deep as a pool of water and a dead silence that seems to extend to the depths of the universe.
Hatred made Noah grow again.
But this growth will most likely not be biased in the positive direction represented by human virtue.
Noah connects with Cullen, the leader of Sidney, an ethereal, dead voice.
"Pick out the 50,000 elites of West Denian society."
Cullen on the other side did not speak, and the leader who had held all the administrative power of Sidenia for thousands of years naturally understood what Noah meant.
Fifty thousand. It was Noah who gave Sidney a place to live.
Cullen was silent for less than a second before replying.
"Master, is this number the limit?"
"Yes, the limit."
Noah replied calmly, and Cullen on the other side didn't speak anymore and disappeared on the projection screen.
But in Noah's vision, Cullen didn't immediately carry out this order, he just sat quietly in his chamber, looking out the window at the jelly-like curvature of space-time, as if nothing had happened just now.
Although the spaceship was less than 90 hours inside before it would reach the vicinity of the Beiluo Division, Noah did not rush him, and the girl knew that the leader was making a final choice.
The inequality of the right to life is the greatest inequality.
Sidney still has a population of about 500 million, and only 1 in 10,000 people are eligible to get the life-symbolizing boarding permit.
The one in ten thousand that Cullen chose was saved by him.
But the ninety-nine thousand-nine hundred-and-ninety-nine who were abandoned by this leader were probably unable to escape the fate of destruction.
Only one in 10,000 of his own people can survive, and this one in 10,000 is still chosen by himself. The remaining nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine thousandths can be said to have been indirectly killed by themselves.
Cullen sat quietly in the dimly lit administration room, letting the darkness cover him.
He just needs time, and Noah will give him time.
In the fleet that had been assigned to Noah, a small warship arrived near the Ise-class spaceship carrying the inheritance module and dropped the ship's robot into it.
It will take out the Civilization Inheritance Pod inside the Ise class and escape into the endless void, waiting for the day when Noah retrieves it.
Noah, who had done everything, closed his eyes again and buried his head in his knees.
Hopefully, this day will not be too far away......
On the other hand, at a distance of nearly 50 light-years away from the Earth fleet, a lone Alpha-class ship, which had just exhausted all its energy resources, automatically broke away from the curvature space-time.
Due to the depletion of energy, the spacecraft will automatically enter a state of low energy consumption, retaining only the most basic ecology as a habitable spacecraft, turning off the drive system, and using the inertia brought by the impulse engine to glide forward at the speed of nearly light.
Without the intervention of internal operations or external commands, the ship would have been gliding through the universe at nearly the speed of light, and because of the huge speed, it would not be captured by the gravitational pull of any galaxy, but would only keep moving forward.
It is not possible to stop until one day, when it hits a star or is captured by the gravitational pull of a black hole.
Entering the low-energy chamber, only the dim base light continues to flicker.
In one corner of the cabin, in a large life-sustaining test tube filled with a green transparent liquid, a red . The naked girl slowly opened her eyes.
It hurts, it hurts......
This is the only touch Pandora feels when she has just woken up from anesthesia.
Every nerve, every cell, seems to have been torn apart.
If someone takes an electron microscope to observe the tissues on the girl's body at this time, they can find that every part of her body is rapidly withering in cellular units, and at the same time, it is also rapidly renewing.
This is the maximum apoptosis, with the maximum cell division bringing hell.
With a crisp cracking sound, the girl fell from the test tube to the ground amid countless fragments of composite materials.
The human body was already difficult to maintain, and countless strange tissues grew from Pandora's body, and countless newly grown tissues quickly died.
Dragging her body struggling with rebirth and destruction, Pandora crawled forward with all her might, her slender fingers easily scratching one hideous mark after another on the alloy floor, and the girl's eyes, which were about to lose their ability to sense light, just looked at the projection table near the life-sustaining test tube.
It's a pity that this time, no blue beam of light fell from the sky, and no girl in a white dress was born from the beam.
The destruction of the long-range and over-range communication instrument 50 light-years away announced the complete loss of contact between this spacecraft and Noah.
Pandora, who was crawling forward in pain on the ground, touched the projection table with her hand, and could not see any light in the girl's blind eyes.
Sister......
Tears welled up from Pandora's already gray pupils, dripping across the girl's withering and regenerating facial tissues, and dripping onto the cold alloy floor.
Pandora's last memory, in the scorching light of the sun's explosion, a hideous and huge steel beast outside the window spewed a blazing beam of light here, and Noah's image became irregular light and shadow on the projection table, shattered in front of Pandora.
And now, Pandora clearly felt that a certain part of her body that had always been closely connected with Noah had disappeared......
The cold touch of the projection table reached Pandora's consciousness, and she seemed to understand a "fact".
My sister died.
Killed by the sun and the unknown steel beast.
Girl red. The naked body curled up in a ball on the cold ground, trembling and crying, and in the broken vocal cords, the sobs emitted seemed to come from the ghosts of the abyss.
There is life, kill my sister.
The girl trembled......
Revenge, a whole new word, emerged from Pandora's consciousness.
The girl curled up on the ground, tears mixed with blood and broken tissue, falling from the girl's face and splashing a blood-colored glimmer on the cold ground.
I...... Revenge.
Two black and sharp wings, spreading from the girl's back, black scale armor, hideous skeleton, supporting the bloody reality, a blood-colored pupil, opening eyes on the wings.
This is the wing of one of the life forms on Earth, the Tenadelle Eye Butterfly.
And this butterfly symbolizes death.
