Beneath Deep Space

The facilities that have been built in this part have reduced a lot of engineering work for people, including various high-speed maglev railways, starry sky ports, mining bases, etc.

Therefore, the engineers are also very energetic. They are frantically discussing how to make rectifications, where to add which equipment, and how much power of nuclear power units should be used to meet the demand...

"According to the new human technology, artificial gravity can already be used, and such a cumbersome circular motion area can be abandoned directly." One of the scientists said.

As a kind of inertial force, centrifugal force cannot be as comfortable as artificial gravity.

"You can even move Noah directly to this core area...so you don't have to worry about gravity. You don't even need artificial gravity." Another engineer also expressed his opinion: "I just want to dig ten A large pit with a diameter of five kilometers is too large a project.”

"If we could dig deeper, a thousand kilometers deep into the earth's core, wouldn't it be safer? All the tubes of the electromagnetic gun can be buried deep underground. The longer the tube, the faster the acceleration."

"If you want to mine, which areas should you dig? The excavated cave can be used directly as a room with a little reinforcement."

One idea after another was put forward one after another, and as the discussion continued, their emotions became more and more enthusiastic.

In their eyes, a metal planet is like a piece of virgin land that has just been reclaimed. These experts who are rich in artistic talent really want to go up and work hard and carve.

…

"Ahem."

After a while, Yu Yifeng coughed and had to interrupt their crazy discussion: "Everyone, our first goal now is to move this battle star away. That is to install it at all costs. Go to the warp engine, and then we can discuss other things.”

"Noah will not move inside until the planet is completely completed..."

"The construction of a planetary spacecraft must be a very long-term project and cannot be rushed."

After the Antaike civilization escapes, it will definitely call for reinforcements, and the new humans know this well. After all, this interstellar civilization has a strong backing. It is not a small matter for a planetary spacecraft to be robbed.

If the white dwarf battle star of the LLP Silicon Alliance really appears in this remote corner, whether the new humans can successfully escape is another matter.

So, now it's actually a gamble against time.

Yu Yifeng is right, the biggest purpose of new human civilization is to transfer this planet. All other transformations can only be placed as second priority.

"We have been studying the curvature equipment of planetary spacecraft for a long time. This technology is different from the engines on ordinary spacecrafts... and the amount of engineering is very large." A young assistant next to him was checking the information. .

"However, we should have enough time to complete this project. No abnormal gravitational wave data has been found at a spatial distance within a hundred light years."

The starry sky is so vast that years and decades of sailing are just a snap of the fingers. This is true for the new humans, and it is also true for the escaped Antek civilization.

According to calculations based on the batch of Antek warships obtained by the new humans, their ultimate curvature sailing speed is only 6 to 8 times the speed of light.

At this speed, it would take 11-16 years to travel a hundred light years!

One hundred light years is only a short distance in the universe and even in the Orion cantilever.

"Not necessarily. The Antek civilization has not built a curvature engine. It is obvious that there are difficulties." Yu Yifeng said with a frown.

He has some experience in this area and has heard Ding Yidong and others mention it a little bit.

"You said, is the number they... finally told us accurate? Why do they remind us like this?" Security Minister Xu Yunjin is not as confident as the young people, and is slightly worried.

It is impossible not to worry. How can it be possible not to worry when facing a terrifying enemy that may come at any time, or even an enemy that has no way to escape?

For this reason, astronomers have already conducted a large number of detections in the surrounding area of ​​a hundred light years, and found no suspicious traces of the white dwarf battle star. This also gives everyone a little peace of mind for the time being.

Of course, such detection cannot be said to be completely accurate, but it just gives everyone a psychological comfort.

The transmission speed of gravitational waves is also the speed of light. If the opponent appeared 100 light-years away 20 years ago, then new humans will have to wait 80 years to detect the opponent.

"So the observational data must be delayed."

Or there is another possibility. The other party has exceeded the speed of light and is flying towards the metal planet! There is no way to detect the data at this time. Once observed, it even means that the other party has arrived.

People have conducted some research on the Antaike civilization, and made a lot of assumptions about the last "well-intentioned" strange reminder, trying to determine whether it is true or false.

First, this information is false, and the other party is completely threatening!

The reason for the intimidation was, of course, to take revenge and disgust the new humans before leaving.

"Do they think that the new humans will give up this planet out of fear?" Xu Yunjin sneered.

The second hypothesis is a little more meaningful.

This information...is true!

"But what is the motivation of the other party for doing this?" This is also the most puzzling point for everyone. Why should they tell their enemies key information?

After the final discussion, if the information based on the other party is correct, from a psychological perspective, there is only one answer. Although this Antek civilization is an affiliated species of the LLP Silicon Alliance, its loyalty may not be high.

In other words, the race that oppressed the lizardmen was not in a good place for their own survival.

"There is a very high probability that after the complete construction of this planetary spacecraft is completed, the ownership rights do not belong to them."

This counterintuitive conjecture has caused a lot of controversy since it was first proposed. After fighting for a long time, it turned out that this spaceship might not belong to the Antek civilization. No wonder they gave it up without any pain in the end.

People come to this conclusion, of course, not by random speculation, but by a series of evidence!

First, during the inspection of metal planets, we discovered a large number of core projects that have yet to be completed, such as planetary electromagnetic accelerators and a large number of planetary weapons and equipment. These core projects have only opened an opening, but they have not been carried out directly. They are all in a state of inexplicable shelving.

Obviously, these projects can be completed in a few years or ten years, and the technical difficulty is not too high.

By then, the performance of the spacecraft will not only change qualitatively, but its firepower will increase by at least 50%, without any problems. However, the Antek Civilization inexplicably put these projects on hold.

This is unusual. Generally speaking, when new humans do a project, they will prioritize it according to its importance. The nuclear power energy room must be installed first, and then everything else is in order.

But this is not the case with the Antec civilization. They are almost raking in one thing here and another in the west, and half-finished projects are everywhere.

Also, the very important curvature engine project, although the engineering volume and technical difficulty are relatively large, should be put to the end. Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?
