A huge formation of spaceships is slowly advancing in space. Although the spacecraft can easily reach .8 times the speed of light using powerful space technology, this speed is still slow! And if the speed reaches .8 times the speed of light, the mass of the spacecraft will increase to .8 times the initial mass out of thin air, causing the spacecraft's engine, energy reserves, etc. to work to the limit. ?. . And accelerating to .8 times the speed of light took a full year!
To be honest, if it weren't for the influence of the black hole, which gave the intelligent life here the opportunity to explore some space technology, they would not be able to reach the technology in front of them. It's just that space has always been synonymous with profoundness and difficulty. Even with the unique conditions of the Pearl Star Region, it can only touch the surface of space; and then develop an engine that can act in space.
Unlike Earth's human technology, this is a true space engine, not an engine that can only be used in a gravity field. Such an engine can be said to be a perfect version of an anti-gravity engine. Of course, with different civilizations and different focus points, the core technologies may be thousands of miles apart. But for now, in practical terms, it is indeed a breakthrough in the current engine technology level of mankind on earth. Space technology, from the perspective of blood, is nobler than ordinary technology! This is a matter of origin, not R&D capabilities. On the spaceship, the empire's power is the dominant force, and the Lieyan family's power is less than 10%; but as a top family, of course it also has powerful life-saving means, which makes the second prince Lieyang Guang Boying helpless. Before leaving, Emperor Shengyang informed the second prince through a secret code: There is a chance to kill the members of the Lieyan family!
In the plan of the Holy Sun Empire. In that civilization, we can directly obtain mature technology, and even use the power of that civilization to build spaceships with alternative technologies, and then come back strongly; then we will give the Lieyan family a name and uproot this restless family!
But now, the empire does not have complete and absolute power, and the Lieyan family cannot be underestimated; therefore, it can only tolerate it for the time being. The empire is not decided by the emperor alone or by a family. It is a comprehensive manifestation of strength.
However, the emergence of this alternative civilization allowed Emperor Shengyang to see hope, and even more, the power to change the Pearl World - or the key, which also allowed Emperor Shengyang to see the power of Chen Xiong's Pearl World! And such power is absolutely not allowed to be controlled by Lieyan family! Moreover, physical weapons allowed the Holy Sun Empire to see the possibility of ultra-long-range attacks. Just like the research of humans on earth, energy weapons and field energy weapons are fast and flexible; however, such energy decays seriously in the universe. Especially as energy weapons become more and more powerful, repulsion and explosive reactions occur between energies, so that the Pearl Star Field has a very strange characteristic: the more advanced the technology, the greater the attack power. On the contrary, the closer the effective attack distance of the weapon is! Because the energy carried by the energy weapon is too great, it will start to "expand" as soon as it leaves the muzzle!
This is a sign of too much energy concentration. As energy intensity increases. The war in the Pearl Star Territory had to be gradually reduced from one million kilometers to one hundred thousand kilometers.
As the energy level increases, pure physical impact weapons and energy weapons become polarized; that is, the more powerful the energy weapon, the shorter the effective shooting range; while the more powerful the physical weapon, the longer the effective shooting range! For example, right now, the shooting distance is 16 light-years - if it is not blocked, it may be further! Maybe it will continue forever.
Human electromagnetic wave communications, etc., have a maximum radiation radius of light years; beyond fifty light years, the signal is too weak to be captured; of course, some military communication technologies are either directional communication technology or sky communication technology. It can radiate farther—this is also the signal received in the Pearl Star Field. But it also shows. The energy itself is spreading all the time.
No matter how powerful the energy weapon is. The essence is still the application of energy; and the dark matter, microwave radiation, etc. that are ubiquitous in the universe are also energy, which will interfere and weaken to a greater or lesser extent; especially if the energy itself is too concentrated, the temperature will inevitably be high - just It radiates! When the temperature reaches a certain level, the amount of radiation is so great that a radiation effect similar to an energy explosion is formed, ultimately causing the effective range of energy weapons to become closer and closer. But now, the sudden appearance of physical weapons gave the Holy Sun Empire a different kind of hope. Of course, physical weapons are powerful, but a brand new, complete, and powerful civilization is even more fat.
As mentioned before, people need food to survive, and the growth of empires and the advancement of civilization also require food! And the only things that can serve as food for civilization and empire are civilization, wisdom, etc.!
"I hope you won't disappoint me too much!" Second Prince Lieyang Guang Boying quietly thought about the next trip. 16 light years, a travel speed of .8 times the speed of light, the spacecraft needs to travel for many years! Even in today's Shengyang Empire, age is already considered the first limit of normal medical treatment; if we talk about rich people, they can extend their lifespan by adjusting genes, injecting nanorobots and pharmaceutical mixtures, etc.; however, the limit of lifespan is still difficult to reach. age. Unlike humans on earth who have just begun to study life, the research on life in many countries here has already been very developed. The brains of ordinary intelligent beings also have carrying capacity; as age increases, memory increases, and various illnesses/stimulations are encountered, the brain will approach its limit. In the end, such a complex intelligent life brain can even be considered a pearl. The scientists in the Star Territory were at a loss.
Quietly closing his eyes, the second prince carefully considered every aspect to ensure the smoothness of this interstellar journey. To be honest, this 16-light-year journey is the first time in the Pearl Star Region! What lies ahead is an unknown territory, especially the intelligent race whose civilization does not know whether it belongs to the peace-loving camp. All of this is a challenge.
"Ding dong..." The automatic doorbell rang, waking up the second prince who was deep in thought.
The loyal bodyguard who had been standing behind the second prince carefully opened the door - the image displayed on the screen was unbelievable. It was impossible to count how many princes died in the competition for power.
The person who arrived was one of the three commanders of the army this time: Yongguang, Rong, and Yong; "Rong" was the lowest title. But for people from such a small family, it is better to be loyal, because they have no choice but to follow a certain prince to the end. There are several consequences: glory, glory and wealth, small wealth and nobility, mediocrity, death, and annihilation. And the betrayal of the small family has only the last result! With the development of this background, a unique culture has been formed in the Pearl Star Territory - small and medium-sized families gain the right to survive through loyalty; and the large forces they rely on also need to be treated well, after all, everyone is prosperous.
"Your Highness," Yongguang Rong Yong has an upright posture and a firm and bright vision. To be able to serve as a powerful assistant to the prince and one of the three major military commanders on this interstellar journey, in addition to his loyalty, his own ability must not be underestimated. look.
"How's it going?" The second prince didn't even raise his head and continued busy with his own affairs; instead of causing any resentment, this behavior gave his subordinates a sense of absolute trust. This second prince is not a simple figure. Otherwise, how would it be the second prince's turn to lead such an important operation.
"Your Highness, it has been found out. This time, the Lieyan family actually has two thousand powerful superpowers! The specific abilities and abilities they master are immeasurable; but the most powerful one has probably reached the state of 'Ming'!"
oh? The second prince raised his head, surprise flashed in his eyes! Ordinary people only know that the empire has five titles: Guang, Ming, De, Xin, and Rong, but they don’t know that in the world of super powers, these actually correspond to five levels of super power standards!
The Lieyan family can awaken a mysterious ability. This ability is to control flames, high temperatures, etc. This is a super power! In the energy-rich Pearl Star Territory, there are many such families. The royal family, the Lieyang Family, can also awaken the ability to control lightning. Such superpowers are almost everywhere in the Pearl Star Territory. However, the mechanism of generation of superpowers has never been thoroughly studied. Anyway, all countries understand that it is not a genetic problem! The purer the bloodline, the higher the rate of awakening and the greater the ultimate achievement.
After pondering for a long time, the second prince finally made up his mind, "Forget it, just wait and see what happens. Monitor closely, and if there is anything wrong with the other party, take action immediately. People with super powers should only seek self-protection. But let every soldier wear high temperature Ray gun, just in case!”
"Yes!" Yongguang Rong Yong saluted and slowly withdrew. The fear of superpowers is not only their own superpowers; it is also their ability to control weapons specially created for superpowers and their superior reaction speed, which makes their individual combat capabilities can be described as terrifying.
Because the history of the previous civilization was unknown, the second prince did not want to waste his strength here, so the matter was suppressed for the time being. At the same time, the Holy Sun Empire, the Dawn Empire, and the Kaiwei Empire began to stage a good show. First of all, neither the Holy Sun Empire nor the Dawn Empire wanted to have a powerful neighbor staring at them, so they began to weaken the Kaiwei Empire. After all, war is a last resort, so this competition starts from the aspects of economy and trade, resources, energy, etc.
However, the Holy Sun Empire and the Lieyan Family are waiting for the returning spacecraft to bring back new civilization information and technology. Of course, the Empire of Dawn is also waiting for the Lieyan family to rebel... Anyway, they have been waiting for thousands of years, and they don't care if they wait a few more years.
………………… Lonely space, a formation of spaceships moves forward lonelyly, day by day, year by year, some people grow old and new people are born; the universe is so far away, for today’s intelligent life , to travel through the universe, it will take several generations of "relays"! )
