Chapter 49: Neutron-like Stars
They walked over to the power armor and stopped, and Xia Lian looked at the shape of the power armor.
"It seems that there are a lot of moths inside the new federation, even if this power armor is eliminated, it should be sent to the colony star outside the core world."
It's impossible for these pirates to snatch weapons and equipment from the military, so it's clear that someone within the New Federation has hung up those obsolete power exoskeletons and sold them on the black market.
Then, Xia Lian whispered softly: "However, we are also fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter." ”
Mercury picked up the gun on the side of the power armor, and due to the proportions, the whole gun was almost as tall as mercury.
Her eyes flashed with countless data, and she began to scan the weapon.
"What kind of weapon is this?" Xia Lian asked.
"It's a heavy particle cannon, but this weapon isn't the key to that power." "The problem is that the cannonball of this gun is an ultra-dense neutron-like star material that is blasted out in the form of a stream of neutrons," Mercury said. ”
"Neutron star?" Xia Lian was a little stunned.
"It's not like you've squeezed the central star with space technology as you might think." "The principle of its formation and density is very similar to that of a neutron star, but in terms of overall mass, it is not the same concept as a neutron star. ”
"The kind of technology that makes microscopic black holes?" Xia Lian asked.
Mercury jaw head.
"I don't care about antimatter energy now." Xia Lian muttered in a low voice, "I'm more concerned about how they got this cannonball now....."
The neutron has a lifetime of only 900 seconds in its free state, and it decays rapidly after it is detached from the nucleus.
But this so-called decay, which is the release of an electron and a neutrino, turns itself into a positively charged proton.
In layman's terms, it's cracked.
But it has a long life in the nucleus, because the strong binding force between the nucleons is like a cage, binding the neutrons inside, which makes it unable to release electrons and neutrinos, and therefore cannot decay.
That is, not to let it crack.
The greater the mass, the greater the gravitational pull, and the gravitational force generated by the massive mass of a neutron star is enough to bind the neutrons and maintain them in a stable state.
However, the gravitational pull generated by the mass of this neutron star is obviously not as high as the gravitational maintenance of a neutron star.
Although there is already a technology to artificially create gravity, the energy consumed to maintain this high-density neutron-like star for a long time by applying gravity externally is very large.
If it is on a starship, it is reasonable, in the past, the neutron beam was a more commonly used shipborne weapon.
The advantage of the neutron beam is that it is not charged, and the charged particles will diffuse due to the electrostatic repulsion inside the beam when emitted.
The uncharged neutron beam means that it has a strong straight-line attack capability and a long distance, and, in the absence of an energy shield, its penetration power can even directly pass the starship armor to attack the insiders.
The starship has an antimatter reactor and plenty of energy to sustain the neutron star, which is very powerful.
But this kind of small cannon, its damage is generally overflowing, and the cost performance is not very high, it should be a weapon made for modified people in recent years.
This kind of thing, which has not even been applied by the regular army, under normal circumstances, it would not have appeared on this pirate ship.
"I didn't expect to find some surprises."
Xia Lian muttered softly, he had seen something similar to this technology in the past, but it was usually a large device mounted on a super-large starship, and it was very dangerous.
The existence of such a thing now means that this device has been reduced to a laboratory level, and the controllability may be more stable.
"Mercury, where's the main control room?" Xia Lian asked.
Mercury was silent for a moment, and the wide-area radar system spread around her at this moment, and the thumbnails of the entire ship and the location coordinates of all personnel were displayed in her mind in a three-dimensional diagram.
"The main control room has been confirmed."
Xia Lian bowed, "Inform everyone, if you catch the captain, remember to stay alive." ”
"Yes."
"Take me to the main control room." Xia Lian said.
Then, Mercury walked in front of Xia Lian and began to lead Xia Lian in this dark corridor.
After walking for about a few tens of meters, he encountered some pirates on the way, and the mercury almost bounced off them with a repulsive field, knocking them unconscious, and the road was almost unimpeded.
Soon, they reached the door of the main control room, the door closed, but it was almost papery for a particle knife.
Mercury raised his lightsaber, and the powerful repulsive field slammed into the door, directly rushing the door out of a passage.
But just as Mercury was about to step into it first, she suddenly turned her head and raised her lightsaber.
"Boom!"
A sledgehammer suddenly appeared from the void and smashed into the lightsaber from top to bottom, causing the ground to tremble faintly as the waves of the massive impact of force began.
And the owner of the sledgehammer slowly broke away from the optical stealth and appeared in front of them.
It was the same person wearing power armor, and the hammer was certainly no ordinary hammer, and the flow of particles gushing from the tail continued to bring great power.
But Mercury seemed to be at ease, holding the lightsaber in one hand and the hammer in one hand.
The thrusters on the elbows of the power armor arm also opened, spewing out a stream of particles in an attempt to re-empower the hammer.
And by this time, the force exerted on the mercury had already reached tens of tons.
The metal floor beneath Mercury's feet was slightly deformed, and a man's hysterical roar could be heard from inside the power armor.
"Die, monster!"
In an instant, Mercury's eyes lit up, and under Xia Lian's gaze, her silky white hair was windless, and particles flowed from her hair, as if they were glowing.
The white light reflected her snow-white skin like congealed fat even brighter, and the particle stream was like a warm wind, driving the dust around her to float around her, and the skirt of the black gothic skirt was also driven to move slightly, vaguely revealing a snow-white smooth thigh.
Xia Lian's lower body brain controlled his gaze involuntarily downward, and then the brain of his upper body quickly shifted his gaze.
He nodded silently in his heart, probably understanding why the reformers wore tights.....
As mercury goes into overclocking mode.
Dark's face inside the power armor showed a look of fear, but then, he felt a huge force that swept him flying more than ten meters away and slammed into the wall.
After flying the power armor, Mercury's gray hair stopped emitting particle streams and slowly walked towards the power armor.
Xia Lian didn't pay attention to their battle, but walked into the main control room through the gap made by the mercury.
There is no one in the main control room, and it is not the holographic projection system used on the Fenrielgenqui starship, and the front half circle is made of transparent aluminum as a viewing window.
It looks like it's an older starship.
In the middle of the main control room was a chair, presumably a captain's chair, made of all-metal, with a large skull emblem on it, and some closed particle knives and metal tubes welded to the backrest, resembling the Iron Throne.
Fortunately, it's not like a golden toilet, otherwise Xia Lian wouldn't dare to sit on it.
However, such a small pirate group has such an arrogant throne, which can be regarded as a very middle second.
He walked up to the high platform and sat down on the Iron Throne, his elbow resting on the armrest, his right hand dragging his cheek, and looking into the distance.
His movements were so natural, although it was the throne of pirates, but he sat on that throne, but there was an inexplicable fit.
