If we only calculate based on the output of dark energy springs, there is absolutely no problem with Korlak's calculation.
But it is a pity that the Sun River Empire knows too little about black cavities, and does not know that obtaining black cavity particles from dark energy sources is only the most inefficient way.
However, Amleth still quite agrees with Korlak's analysis.
After some thought, he agreed to Korrac's suggestion and continued the dark energy crystal attrition war with the Alliance.
A large number of dark energy crystals were continuously taken out from the reserves and sent to the fleet assembly area. One black cavity channel after another continued to open and collapse again, and the cycle started again, until two days later...
Ninety percent of the dark energy crystals taken from the empire's reserves have now been consumed.
Even Korlak, who was extremely confident before, now became a little doubtful.
Could it be...
Was your previous analysis wrong?
The empire does still have a reserve of about 1,500 dark energy crystals, but that cannot be touched, even if you have 99% confidence.
This war of attrition, which lasted for more than three days, had to be stopped, and the result was obviously that the Sun River Empire was defeated and completely defeated.
Unlike the Empire, the fleet commanders of the three major civilizations in the Alliance are celebrating in the virtual war room, especially Altera of the Divine Yao Civilization and Talovis of the Gem Empire who are the most excited.
The Sun River Empire can calculate the reserves on the human side, and the Alliance is naturally also calculating the Sun River Empire's.
Compared with how many dark energy crystals are in the hands of humans, the reserves in the hands of the Sun River Empire are more transparent and easy to calculate.
According to various calculations, this time at least 90% of the dark energy crystal reserves of the imperial camp have been consumed, which is quite beneficial for the war after the two major wars.
The situation is about to be completely reversed. The alliance with the advantage in dark energy crystal reserves will soon take over the initiative in the war.
After all, without enough dark energy crystals, you cannot drop your fleet into the combat area at will and quickly, but can only passively defend.
"What to do now?"
In the Imperial Palace of the Sun River Empire, Amleth no longer had the high spirits of the past few days, but instead had a look of decadence.
For the empire, this loss was too heavy.
Not to mention half of the fleet, even the reserves of dark energy crystals have been consumed by 90%.
How will the war with the Alliance be fought after this?
After listening to Amleth's question, there was silence in the room, and even Korlak lost his voice.
"Your Majesty, the Minister of Intelligence, Mr. Harris, has emergency communication access. Do you need to access the audience room now?"
Just when the whole room was silent, a guard walked in, knelt down on one knee and reported.
"Harris? Take it!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After the guards retreated, everyone in the audience immediately began to whisper among themselves.
"Your Excellency Harris is using emergency communication to contact you at this time. Could it be that there is something wrong with biological civilization?"
"I hope not. The current situation in the empire is not optimistic. If Nagaron intervenes at this time, there will really be no way to save the day!"
"If we weren't prepared to step in, could it be that those inferior biological civilizations still want to help us?"
"Stop arguing, don't you know?"
...
Although everyone has their own opinions, in fact most of them are pessimistic.
After all, it is very rare that technological civilization can reach an agreement with biological civilization not to attack each other. It is even more impossible to let biological civilization help technological civilization.
Of course, if it is an ordinary biological civilization, this is indeed the case...
But, is Gallon an ordinary biological civilization?
Obviously not!
"Harris, what happened? Do you need to use emergency communications?"
As soon as the communication was connected, Amleth immediately asked, with an anxious look on his face.
He also heard what the minister below just said, but he didn't stop it. After all, even he thought the same way.
"Your Majesty, Garonne already knows about our situation!"
"What, how did he know?"
"It's not very clear, but it just told me that if we are willing to pay another energy source, he can help us solve our current predicament..."
"Is the biological civilization planning to intervene in the war?"
Hearing this, Amleth was suddenly startled. Although he had many conjectures, the possibility of Garen directly intervening in the war was also one of them.
But the problem is that for Amlais, he does not actually want biological civilization to intervene.
One is because this is a war of technological civilization, and if biological civilization is directly involved, the image will be too bad, and it may even cause all the subordinate civilizations under its command to defect.
The other is that once Garen gets involved, it's not up to you whether you want to go back or not. After all...
It’s easy to ask God but hard to send Him away!
"No, Garonne does not intend to intervene in the battle between our technological civilizations, but..."
"But what?"
"Garen said that he can provide us with the black cavity crystal..."
Black cavity crystal?
Everyone was a little confused after hearing this.
What is this? Have you never heard of it?
"It is said that this is a crystal whose black cavity particle purity is infinitely close to 100%..."
"This is impossible!"
Seeing the confusion on everyone's faces, Harris told him what Gallon had just told him.
However, the result was exactly what they thought, and no one believed it.
You know, even if there are black cavity particles in dark energy crystals, it is only less than 1%. What is the concept of being infinitely close to 100%?
It's impossible for such a thing to exist, okay? Isn't Garen trying to defraud us of a dark energy source while the empire is in dire straits?
Almost everyone present had such speculation in their minds at this moment.
However, at the next moment, what Harris said made everyone uneasy.
"Your Majesty, Gallon has given us a piece of so-called dark energy crystal. According to the testing by the personnel on our ship, this thing is indeed as it says. It is almost entirely composed of black cavity particles!"
"What, are you sure!"
"Yes, I'm sure, Your Majesty!"
Now, Amleth was really not calm.
What is the concept of a crystalline substance that is almost entirely composed of black cavity particles?
If the black cavity particles are extracted from it and fused with dark energy through scientific and technological means, artificial dark energy crystals can be easily created, and hundreds of dark energy crystals can be produced from one black cavity crystal of the same volume.
..
If there are enough black cavity crystals on Garen's side, it's not that he cannot agree to his condition. After all, as long as there are enough, the dark energy source will be meaningless.
