Stellaris: Earth Alliance

Chapter 258 Sentinel Array
In order to better monitor the movements of the Kingdom of France in the Milky Way.

The British Empire has been trying to develop a super hyperspace probe that can receive information from the Eurasian system in the Milky Way.

However, there is a barren area between the two huge galaxies that is really insurmountable.

In the end, only after covering most of the deserted areas, the research was announced to be stopped forever.

Next, every time the detection range of the sensor is expanded, the cost will increase geometrically.

And it is still far away from the actual detection of the Eurasian system, so there is no need to continue to develop.

But unknowingly, the range of this sensor has expanded to the entire galaxy.

A sentinel array as huge as a star can detect hyperspace fluctuations in the entire galaxy.

By analyzing the intensity of hyperspace fluctuations, we can know whether it is a large ship or a small ship that is jumping in hyperspace, whether it is a large number or a small number.

As long as a considerable amount of resources are invested in comparative analysis of this information, you can eventually get an extremely clear military deployment situation of all civilizations in the galaxy.

In the later stages, it becomes more important to know the specific movements of other people's fleets.

Especially for a country with an extremely large territory like England.

There are too many places that need to be defended. The troops are spread too far apart and cannot form combat effectiveness. If they are gathered too tightly, they can easily be stolen.

After possessing the Sentinel Array, he successfully restored the deployment of troops in the entire galaxy in a small room by detecting fluctuations in hyperspace.

Then you can gather most of the troops scattered in various places and defeat the enemy one by one with superior strength.

Instead of being afraid that the enemy will suddenly drill out from somewhere and destroy their important strongholds.

"The Sentinel Array is not to be used except in emergencies."

The sentinel array only detects hyperspace fluctuations to identify whether there are ships in the hyperspace jumping nearby, so as to judge the deployment of troops.
And because the hyperspace engines of each country are slightly different, while detecting whether there is an army, you can also use the subtle differences in fluctuations to determine which force it belongs to.

The kingdoms of England and France have been fighting off and on for tens of millions of years, and each is very familiar with the other's ships, just like their own.

Once the Sentinel Array is activated, it means that all the fleets hidden here in the Kingdom of France in the entire galaxy will be found.

Of course, the premise is that they have performed a hyperspace jump.

"Every minute and every second when the Sentinel Array is activated, a huge amount of energy is consumed. We cannot guarantee that the fleet of the Kingdom of France will make a hyperspace jump during the period of activation."

It is an open secret that the Kingdom of France secretly sends fleets to the Milky Way intermittently.

But the Milky Way is too big, and when heading towards the Milky Way through the barren galaxy, it has to crawl over slowly through the hyperdrive.

So even the sentinel array cannot detect it.

If the opponent keeps sailing at super-light speed and does not perform any space jumps, the Milky Way is so big, they can only catch them blind.

"I think Portman's mutation is a precursor to the Kingdom of France taking action. The time for the protected area designated by the Star Ocean Community is approaching. The Kingdom of France will never watch us annex the Eastern Galaxy. The Sentinel Array was built to use If you are here to use it and don’t care about the future, it would be better not to build it in the first place.”

This argument has also been supported by many people, and the two sides are at loggerheads.

After weighing the situation, the British Prime Minister ordered the sentry array to be activated.

Regardless of whether the Kingdom of France plans to use the hyperlight engine to fly for a lifetime. They have been waiting for 4000 million years. Now the time for the protected area is approaching and it will be unsealed soon. It is a stage full of crises.

Even if the sentinel array cannot directly detect the opponent's army, it can still detect a lot of subtle information and help them better analyze the current situation.

In a star field near the capital star of the British Empire, next to the huge star, a huge building slowly unfolded its body.

Arms filled with countless sensors stretch across almost the entire galaxy.

The moment the Sentinel Array was activated, it consumed countless amounts of energy, and then ship after ship of energy coins were transported in the direction of the Sentinel Array.

The energy coin resources accumulated by various power generation facilities in normal times, each energy coin worth a sky-high price, were now poured into the abyss of the Sentinel Array like garbage.

A burst of blue light flashed on the sentinel array, and the hyperspace fluctuation detector had been activated.

Its scope covers the entire galaxy, and any hyperspace jump made by the Kingdom of France during this period will be detected.

After preventing the French Kingdom from using its army to jump over the wall, the only thing left is to solve the problem of the French Kingdom extending its tentacles to Portman.

In the field of artificial intelligence, there is the strongest shield, but not the strongest spear.

Therefore, at the level of the English Empire and the Kingdom of France, the defensive battle of artificial intelligence is much simpler than the offensive battle.

The English Empire, which has been uploaded to the consciousness of almost all the people, is much more advanced in the field of artificial intelligence than the Kingdom of France, but this does not mean that it can break into the network system of the Kingdom of France at will.

Therefore, they were very unscrupulous in developing their machine troops.

A large number of war machines came off the assembly line, whether it was England or France.

Although the Vienna Empire did not choose to directly abolish the litigation agreement after defeating the fleet of the Suzheng Agreement, but only modified the content of the original Suzheng Agreement, the second Suzheng Agreement may still break out.

But if the sky falls, there will be tall people holding it up. If the Vienna Empire really wants to kill them, they will not pass any serious agreement at all.

All it takes is one psychic warship to pierce the entire known universe.

So now in the entire universe, except for the information-closed Eastern Galaxy, which has some scruples about developing robots, everyone else is working hard to develop them.

Because the only threatening agreement has been lifted, although the attitude of the Vienna Empire is unclear, it is obvious that it is not hostile to them.

The opponent has reached a certain level of strength.It is an existence that needs to be looked up to.

So why are you hesitating?The entire universe is developing robots like crazy.

Many civilizations in the universe are doing this by using robots to build robots, and ultimately realize the geometric expansion of the fleet.

The reason why Yingjili didn't teach Portman the Absolute Shield technology to prevent robots from being seized is that he didn't want Portman to develop robots unscrupulously.

Just to make them always worry about something inexplicable and not dare to develop.

Once Portman releases all restrictions on robots, even if England can seize power over these robots at will in the future, there is no guarantee that the Kingdom of France will seize power first.

After all, their enemy from the beginning was not Portman or Phil, just the Kingdom of France.
