Chapter 671 Death of the Sun(1/2)
Wu Yong's words immediately caused a huge commotion at the scene.
For today's humans, the status of the Source Star Galaxy and the Source Sun is no longer what it used to be. Humans do not lack a place to live in just one planet system. However, as the birthplace of ancient humans, especially the Mechanical Empire, the Source Sun always has its own disadvantages.
Special commemorative significance.
In addition, these heavy transport ships are also the hard-earned savings of countless people in the Far Frontier Star Territory over the years. The possibility of falling stars and setting off huge fireworks has really severely damaged the faith of everyone present.
They know very well that once these transport ships are lost, the entire Far Frontier Star Territory will usher in a period of energy shortage for at least a thousand years.
This is predictable.
Originally, because the three frontline star regions were not involved in the all-out war, the people here have lived quite well in these years, and they have achieved great development by undertaking a large number of military industry orders from the empire's center.
If Ren Zhong were to do this now, not to mention how miserable it would be to live in an occupied area, but the good life of good food and clothing that had lasted for dozens of generations would definitely be gone, and would even fall below the poverty line.
If it were in the past, as an important industrial town, the Far Frontier Star Territory might have been rescued by financial allocations from the Imperial Center.
But now the imperial center cannot protect itself, is in a difficult situation, and is shrinking across the board. It is obviously impossible to support the peripheral areas.
Everyone was angry and helpless. They didn't understand why Ren Zhong's wisdom would make such a ridiculous mistake, but they were unable to resist.
They don't know that all of this is a heavy calculation in itself.
Finally, the transport ships in the bowl formation shut down their media engines almost at the same time.
It was not an overload shutdown as judged by the engineer named Wu Yong, but a more proactive shutdown.
At this time, almost all the hydrogen isotope particles ejected from the dielectric reverse thrust engine were captured by the source sun. However, these isotopes were not evenly distributed, but were heavily enriched near the equatorial midline area of the source sun, forming a
High energy ring.
The reason for this phenomenon is very simple, the gravitational effects are mutual.
Not only is there a gravitational effect between the sun and the transport ship, but the transport ships themselves also have a gravitational effect on each other.
In order to prevent transport ships from being passively gathered together and colliding due to gravitational effects during flight, the jet angle of most transport ships' reverse thrust medium engines has a certain offset to provide angular momentum and facilitate the maintenance of relative distance.
The jet ports of all transport ships are focused into a petal shape, aiming at the equatorial ring area on the surface of the source sun.
Later, due to the rotation of the source sun itself, these foreign hydrogen isotopes, which had not been completely burned and were only used as inference media, formed a ring on the surface of the source sun.
In this ring, foreign hydrogen isotopes continue to accumulate, the concentration becomes higher and higher, and they begin to penetrate downward, gradually breaking the material balance on the source sun and changing the reaction conditions of the stellar fusion reaction.
By now, large flares have begun to erupt on a large scale on the surface of the source sun.
Large flares are densely distributed near the high-energy ring area, making the source sun seem to have a shiny "golden belt" wrapped around its waist. The interior of the source sun has also become increasingly unstable.
Immediately afterwards, when the medium engines of the transport ship all shut down completely at the same time, a scene that made the audience in Starry Sky Chifengjia despair appeared.
The speed of the heavy transport ship that lost power gradually slowed down due to the gravitational pull of the sun behind it.
However, the acceleration of the source sun is getting bigger and faster as the bowl-shaped fleet in front of it, whose total mass is about half of its own, is getting closer and closer, and its speed is getting faster and faster.
Finally, the bowl-shaped fleet formation became absolutely stationary in space, and the source sun itself collided head-on at a very fast speed.
Hundreds of thousands of heavy transport ships loaded with huge amounts of energy materials "falled" towards the source sun at the same time, slamming down like raindrops.
When everyone in the crew cabin of the Starry Sky Chifeng Armor saw this, even though they knew that this happened a few hours ago, they still unanimously lamented, beat their chests, and regretted it.
Many people even tried to offend Marquis Chifeng and started yelling in the crew cabin.
Some of these people brought transport ships belonging to their own forces. Now that the ships are gone, they have only lost their social status.
But there are also some people who are originally the owners of transport ships, and their entire wealth is on the transport ships.
Now, of course, everything has been wasted.
But at this moment, the Starry Sky Scarlet Armor began to speed up and charged forward, causing the people in the crew cabin to become silent again.
Some people are secretly thinking, will Chifenghou not only sacrifice the transport ship, but also himself and his armor?
What on earth is he going to do?
What kind of evil ritual is this?
At this moment, Ren Zhong paid no attention to the commotion in the crew cabin, but acted as Xu Guangnian's eyes.
As the most outstanding astrophysicist in the Chifeng tribe, Xu Guangnian serves as the overall person in charge of this stellar detonation plan, including the formation of the heavy transport ship, the ignition power and injection angle of the medium engine array, and the design of the transport ship's crash point.
He finished.
Of course he can do these things if he has a heavy responsibility, but Xu Guangnian's research in astronomy and physics is more profound.
For example, Xu Guangnian has now made up for a fatal flaw in Ren Zhong's original idea.
"These transport ships use a large amount of solid matter, and their mass density is much greater than that of stars. Therefore, although the mass difference between the two is not large, the difference in volume is huge. The transport ships will be relatively sparsely distributed inside the source sun. Inside the source sun
The mass and temperature distribution of the transport ships are not uniform, so the explosion time of the transport ships may not be completely consistent. According to my estimation, the temperature and pressure around two of the transport ships will be low, and it will be delayed to detonate the nuclear fusion fuel.
standard. It will only be detonated when the explosion impact of transport ships in other areas reaches the nearby area. This time difference in explosion will disrupt the original chain reaction process, causing the source sun to be torn apart, but not formed to be released.
A higher-energy supernova will explode. Therefore, we have to find a way to make these two transport ships explode at the same time as other transport ships."
Xu Guangnian said so in the communication, and sent Ren Zhong a stereoscopic projection diagram of a star's disassembly.
Ren Zhong saw that two transport ships at different positions had been marked separately.
Then, without prompting from others, Ren Zhong immediately started to speed up the Starry Sky Red Edge Armor.
Immediately afterwards, when the transport ships successively touched the corona of the source sun, the passengers in the Red Front Armor felt that their consciousness was slightly trance-like.
When they came to their senses, they found that something was not right.
Many of the people here are professional captains. They only need to stand near the visual port window and observe the approximate distance with the naked eye.
Many people immediately realized that they were already less than 60 million kilometers away from the corona of the source sun. Even though the bright light from the "close" star almost blinded their eyes, some people still couldn't help but stare.
Go and see.
As a professional engineer, Wu Yong immediately guessed what happened previously.
He murmured to himself, "I didn't expect that the first real free jump I would experience in my life would be charging towards a star! This... this is really unreasonable."
Someone next to him asked him, "But the Sun is about to explode. We... ahem, can Marquis Chifeng escape? He shouldn't even risk his own life, right?"
"Who knows." Wu Yong shrugged, "But I can be sure of one thing, that is, even if this planet ship is gone, Marquis Chifeng will definitely not die. It will only be us."
"Well……"
Everyone was a little speechless.
But Ren Zhong had no time to pay attention to the random thoughts of these passengers. He had just used Xingkong Chifengjia to assemble a neutron bomb with an internal explosive part at extremely fast speeds.
Because the interference inside the star is too strong, it is impossible to remotely detonate it using information flow or other communication methods, not even neutrino communication.
We must make the explosion time of this neutron bomb accurate to nanoseconds.
Accompanied by the slight vibration of the Starry Sky Chifeng Armor, the neutron bomb quickly reached one third of the speed of light under the continuous acceleration of the ultra-long electromagnetic orbit that ran through the entire Red Front Armor, piercing straight towards the source sun and easily passing through the corona.
, continued drilling in, and hit the high-temperature storage tank of one of the two marked transport ships, causing a large amount of compressed hydrogen isotopes stored inside to rapidly pour out to the outside world.
However, because the nearby temperature and pressure were not sufficient to meet the standards for initiating nuclear fusion, an explosion did not occur immediately.
Time passed little by little, and about ten seconds passed.
The neutron bomb detonated on time the moment it penetrated into the storage tank of another marked transport ship.
The energy released by the fission explosion in this storage tank becomes the fuse that ignites the nuclear fusion chain reaction.
This area, which would have taken at least half an hour to explode on its own, was ignited in advance with the "sacred fire" of nuclear fusion.
Almost at the same time, the hydrogen isotope released in a very short time from the transport ship that was first penetrated by the neutron bomb finally reached the standard to start the chain reaction.
The remaining hundreds of thousands of transport ships also happened to detonate their respective nearby areas at the same time.
A precise supernova explosion with all parameters controlled by humans has finally started.
This is not the first time in human history that a star has been detonated, but it consumes the least energy, has the shortest preparation time, and has the largest size and mass of a star detonated.
What was "ignited" was recognized by countless people as the mother star that gave birth to the entire human race - the Source Sun.
Seeing the signs of a supernova explosion below that could be discerned even with the naked eye, everyone in the Starry Sky Red Front Armor was filled with despair.
Wu Yong, who lives up to his name, once again started making his bold predictions.
"It's over, it's really over now. I've been on the ship of the Far Frontier Branch. Now that we are so close to the star, we are greatly affected by the star's gravitational field and the tide of information flow. It is impossible to start in this area.
Free jump. The energy released briefly when a supernova explodes flies at an infinite speed close to the speed of light, and it is very terrifying. We can't escape, we will die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Starry Sky Scarlet Armor began to tremble again.
When he came to his senses again, he had already appeared billions of kilometers away.
Wu Yong shouted: "Ah this...! This is impossible!"
At this time, the people next to me finally couldn't bear it anymore.
One of them jumped up and punched him hard on the head, "Howl like a hammer! You understand, you understand. Everything you have said so far is nothing."
A good word is always unreliable, can you please shut up your stupid mouth?"
Wu Yong was beaten so hard that he ran away with his head in his arms, but he obediently shut his mouth.
Everyone was still lying in front of the viewing window, staring at the source of the sun there from a distance.
To be continued...
