"... if the other party is so persistent in expanding the wormhole, is there something huge to pass through? And that thing can be decided at once?"
Alsace's previous speculation suddenly reappeared in Gillard's mind and changed his face.
At the same time, Nie Yun was looking at the strange object emitting white light with surprise, and the information about the white dwarf appeared in his mind.
Such celestial bodies are not uncommon in the universe.
After passing through the main sequence star stage of life, low - and medium mass stars will expand into a red giant, such as... The sun!
Billions of years later, the sun will cross the main sequence star and expand into a huge red giant, which will devour mercury, Venus and even the earth.
The blazing high temperature will turn the earth into a place of lava and a dead end of life. At this time, we have two choices, one is to emigrate to other planets, the other is to wander the earth
The solar core in the red giant state will continue to shrink, while the shell will continue to burn, and then throw away the outer material in a series of thermal pulses to form gorgeous nebulae on the periphery.
And the last burning debris left by it... Is the white dwarf we see!
White dwarfs are usually composed of carbon and oxygen. During the formation of white dwarfs, gravity collapses rapidly and atoms are crushed to form degenerate matter composed of atomic nuclei and electrons, so its density is amazing.
Even the "pocket" white dwarf with a diameter of only 180 kilometers has a much larger mass than ordinary celestial bodies.
Only about 3% of all stars are white dwarfs, and they are quite far away from the solar system. Therefore, this is the first time Nie Yun has witnessed this kind of object at close range.
"This thing... What does the other party want?"
Like everyone else, Nie Yun thought of this problem for the first time.
As long as the IQ is online, we all know that the Locke consortium has made great efforts to expand the wormhole, not just to send a "flare" at the most critical moment of this battle.
So the key question now is what is the use of something like a big light bulb?
"Is this also a war star? Degenerate war star?" Nie Yun guessed, but soon he shook his head and laughed.
Although ultra-high density brings ultra-high defense, ordinary attack means don't even want to scratch its skin, but it also means ultra-high gravity.
Not to mention biology, even high-strength alloy steel will only become a pile of discus on it, let alone the high temperature of more than 8000 degrees is enough to melt most materials.
"Since you can't carry weapons, can you hit it? But the speed is too moving... Wait! Is it..."
Nie YunRuo's face changed at the same time.
"Immediately order the fallen angel to move at full speed and hide behind the fearless War Star! In addition... Inform ISAR and Renault..."
……
When Nie Yun took action for the first time, there was some commotion on the whole battlefield because of the "intruders".
The Gemini side is nervous. They are worried that this white dwarf is the other side's super weapon. They will be given a "Genesis" in the next moment, while the Ryan side is inexplicable.
It doesn't say this thing will join the battlefield?
So... What the hell is this?
When the battlefield fell into a brief chaos, the order from the old leader of the lane clan finally broke the situation.
"Evacuate immediately and return to the wormhole as soon as possible at all costs!"
The order was inexplicable, and all the soldiers heard a trace of eagerness from the order.
So... The Gemini soldiers who were fighting with the enemy looked at them in amazement. The opponent who had just braved death and charged desperately suddenly turned the jet port and retreated back towards the wormhole like a tide.
They didn't even leave any rear troops. It looked like a sudden escape!
Many people don't know the situation, haven't received new instructions, and even catch up with them, ready to beat the water dog.
"No! Let all the fleets stop chasing and retreat immediately!" Gillard shouted with sweat on his forehead.
If he had only a vague guess when this thing first appeared, now the opponent's abnormal withdrawal undoubtedly greatly increases the possibility of that guess!
Although he is not an astrophysicist, as a senior fleet commander, he has no shortage of knowledge of various celestial bodies in the universe.
Therefore, he knows that white dwarfs will not be the final stage in the evolution of stars
In the subsequent series of "evolution" branches of the white dwarf, there is one that directly points to the ultimate meaning of "art"
And if so
Gillard did not even dare to imagine, but was crazy and generally ordered the fleet to retreat at full speed.
It's just... The evacuation of thousands of warships can be done in a moment and a half.
Even before all the Ryan warriors returned to the wormhole and most of them stayed in the battlefield, the white dwarf, which was just gentle like a quiet light bulb, suddenly became restless!
Its light began to fade, and the surrounding magnetic field suddenly became disordered.
"Big... Big general! It is detected that there is a sudden violent energy fluctuation in the white dwarf. Our scientists say that it is likely to be... Carbon fusion!"
The news suddenly changed the faces of all the officers in the command room.
The carbon nucleus of a white dwarf does not undergo nuclear fusion in its natural state. In fact, a white dwarf is a "flameout" old star.
But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and stars... Have never been synonymous with "gentleness".
If a degenerate star suddenly rekindles the fire of nuclear fusion
Astronomically, this phenomenon has a cool name... Supernova explosion!
"Boom!"
When the dazzling light broke out in front of everyone, Gillard had lost his ability to think. He could only look at the light representing death and quickly drown his huge fleet
Of course, the speed of fleet evacuation is not as fast as the speed of light.
When the violent electromagnetic radiation shines on the force field shield, although it does not destroy it at the first time, it continues to consume the remaining energy of the shield.
"Boom! Boom!" one by one, the mecha and fighter planes expanded and exploded under the irradiation of this intensity of energy.
And warships with stronger shields are still alive!
The result of cutting meat with a blunt knife is nothing more than increasing the despair of everyone inside the warship
"Boom!" five minutes later, with the shield energy of a small warship reaching the bottom, it disappeared into the universe, followed by one explosion after another!
Large warships with thicker shields are still struggling to support. If they irradiate with this energy intensity, as long as the stored energy crystal is sufficient, they are undoubtedly likely to survive after carrying this wave of the most violent energy explosion.
But half an hour later, a more deadly attack arrived, destroying their last hope!
It was the stellar debris produced after countless explosions. A large number of iron and nickel elements flew out with the explosion, like a sharp sword, hitting the shield at nearly one tenth of the speed of light!
The shield breaks and then tears the armor
A more tragic explosion occurred, and the fleet composed of thousands of warships was almost lost under the impact of this round!
The wreckage of warships floats everywhere in the universe, and then melts into various shapes under the high temperature
The most striking thing in the fleet is undoubtedly the huge "fearless War Star"!
This fearless war star, which consumes countless Gemini resources and carries a large number of super weapons, was devastated without even breaking out all its strength!
The side facing the impact has been like human purgatory. All kinds of fires and explosions completely flooded the whole hemisphere, and red magma flowed everywhere.
Today's fearless war star is like a half red soldering iron!
However, the diameter of more than 3000 kilometers also makes the fearless war star with miserable image become the only "shield" that can resist this explosion in this star domain!
Including an independent shield system, the general command headquarters built deep underground on the back of the war star, and some large warships that quickly saw the opportunity and hid in the shadow of the back of the fearless war star for the first time, became the only survivors of the disaster
"Gu ~" Nie Yun swallowed his saliva.
This is definitely the most gorgeous "fireworks" he has ever seen in his life!
Compared with the "art" of this scale, the "Pluto" plan tossed in his backyard is really a little petty
He finally understood why the Locke consortium had the advantage of strength, but wanted a group of vassal races to constantly fight a war of attrition with Gemini.
They're waiting! Gather most of the forces of civilization here, and then use this way to bury this huge fleet... In one fell swoop!
