I was exposed for mining on Mars

"Three pieces?"

When the battleship that jumped to the Kuiper Belt appeared on the screen, Luo Xiu, Cao Guolin and others were slightly disappointed, but they were not surprised.

After all, everyone present knew that this wormhole jump test was the first test for starship humans and Blue Star humans. Regardless of the outcome of the experiment, this is a moment that will go down in history.

And the experiment was not fruitless. Although the battleship was split into three parts due to unknown energy, it was still able to successfully jump to a fixed point.

In the entire experiment, the jump was actually not too difficult. After all, Cao Guolin and others had already made short-distance jumps through the space energy in the antimatter annihilation energy zone before this.

Due to the uncontrollable energy of those jumps, the distance and direction of the jumps are beyond the control of Cao Guolin and others.

After getting Luo Xiu's permission, Cao Guolin and Xue He built a huge ring in the Oort cloud for directional wormhole jumps. With this ring in hand, experiments can quantify the use of energy and analyze each energy release.

With this most important point in mind, the next experimental command will be closer to success.

"Increase the energy output and suppress the interference of space energy on the transition channel."

After carefully observing the cross-section of the first battleship, Xue He immediately said to the researchers in front of the console.

Under the command of Xue He, the researchers changed the transmission energy to increase the energy excited inside the ring, inhibiting the expansion and influence of the space energy at the center of the circle to the outside.

"The second ship enters the jump channel."

When the energy transmission data changed, Xue He once again issued instructions to the Zhouwen-class battleships in the Oort Cloud.

After the signal transmission from the lunar research base arrived, the second ship did not make any stop, directly increased the power of the regressor, and crashed into the jump channel in the center of the ring.

"Energy feedback is normal."

"The jump was successful."

Just like when the first battleship jumped, the ring did not show any abnormalities, and it still "safely" sent the battleship to the test site in the Kuiper Belt.

Although the state of the jump was very smooth, the result was not much different from the first jump. When the battleship jumped out of the void, the ship was broken into two pieces.

Because the control system was destroyed, the battleship could only slide forward with inertia at this time, and could only wait for Luo Xiu's engineering ship to capture it.

However, judging from the gliding state just now, the broken surface of the second ship is not as smooth as the first one. Its entire broken surface is abnormally irregular, as if it has been chewed randomly by some animal from Blue Star. Fan.

Neither Luo Xiu nor Xue He and others have ever seen this kind of situation. In the past, when battleships came into contact with space energy, all surfaces were very smooth.

But now Xue He didn't care about the changes in the cut. In his opinion, since the second jump had reduced one section, it meant that the output of controlled energy had a positive effect on the ship's jump.

With this thought, Xue He once again said to the controller in front of him: "Continue to increase the energy output, and the third ship is preparing to enter the jump channel."

Now that the second increase in energy output has achieved results, Xue He must of course adhere to the concept of the last experiment and continue to increase the energy output on the inner wall of the ring.

Regarding Xue He's operation, Cao Guolin behind him felt that it was not very scientific, but even if the energy continued to increase, it would not reach the upper limit of the ring's energy output, nor would it exceed the threshold of energy annihilation when hitting the center of the circle.

Under such circumstances, even if the energy of the collision is increased, it should not have much impact.

Even if the test fails again, it may just be another unexplained damage to the ship.

"The third test begins." While Cao Guolin was thinking about it, Xue He, who was in charge of this test, issued the order again.

Under his command, the third unmanned ship headed towards the jump channel in the center of the circle again under the control of the lunar research base control system.

Judging from the movement of the battleship and the reaction of the ring, this third test does not seem to be any different, it is just another attempt at wormhole jump.

Only when all six ships fail to jump, will this first wormhole jump ring test fail.

At that time, the structure of the entire ring will be verified again, which will take at least a year.

Because of this, neither Xue He nor Cao Guolin actually wanted this experiment to fail.

"Energy feedback is normal."

"jump into"

When the front end of the third ship just came into contact with the twisted channel formed at the center of the circle, the researcher responsible for reporting the progress of the test suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that something had happened in the experiment, Xue He quickly took two steps forward and asked the researcher.

"The data of the jump are skyrocketing! There is something wrong with this experiment."

At this time, on the console screen, all the data monitoring the ring were beating violently. And this beating is not up and down, but straight up, and has no intention of falling at all.

"Xue Zhi, do you want to stop?"

Because the test data increased so strangely this time, the researcher who monitored the data changes had to say to suspend the test in Luo Xiu's presence.

You must know that Luo Xiu is the supreme commander of the entire solar system. If the test is stopped in his presence, it means that this test must have encountered great difficulties.

"If it doesn't stop, the ring is likely to be formed." Although the researcher who monitored the data did not finish his sentence, everyone knew what his next sentence was.

If the ring is really damaged, it will be a huge blow to the entire wormhole jump experiment.

It is not easy for Xue He to make a ring, and the materials it requires are definitely not a small amount.

A ring with a diameter of 15 kilometers would be 4.71 million kilometers long if expanded into a straight line.

A ring that is 4.71 million kilometers long and has an internal diameter of four kilometers. The total amount of material required is simply an astronomical figure for previous blue stars.

If it weren't for Luo Xiu and the starship humans, Xue He wouldn't have dared to imagine that he could build such a cosmic wonder even in his dreams.

"Temporarily stop the energy output to the center of the circle, check the ring, and make sure the ring is not damaged before conducting the fourth test."

Faced with the potential huge losses, Xue He still compromised.

"The energy output is being cut off, and the engineering robot has been released."

When Xue He's order had just been given, the engineering robots hidden outside the ring came out in full force and began to inspect the key points of the ring.

However, at the same time that the engineering robot was dispatched, the third ship was still moving forward, with no intention of stopping.

As the ship moved, the surrounding antimatter energy and space energy, without the suppression of the ring energy, instantly covered the third ship from all directions.

But before these two energies could completely cover the ship, the energy of the ring was activated again, and the inner wall of the moving ring was shot out at high speed, once again controlling the two energies at the center of the circle.

However, although the self-check of the ring was very fast, the third ship became extremely unstable due to the violent fluctuations in energy and the intervention of the two subsequent energies.

Although the interior of the jump ring is now very unstable, no one from the lunar research base can intervene.

Only after the third ship has completely passed can the fourth test be conducted.

"Buzz"

Just as everyone at the Lunar Research Base was waiting for the third ship to pass, a burst of intense white light suddenly lit up on the screen in the entire research room.

This white light was even more intense than the blue-white light emitted when the jump ring was activated. Even Luo Xiu, who was behind the exoskeleton armor, could not observe any changes on the big screen for a while.

"what's the situation?"

Although the white light was only for a moment, researchers such as Cao Guolin and Xue He in the research room fell into a state of temporary blindness due to this sudden bright light.

At this time, only Luo Xiu, who was protected by the exoskeleton armor, could clearly see the situation on the big screen.

On the big screen at this time, the outside of the jump ring far inside the Oort cloud had returned to normal. But at the center of the circle, a dark, round space appeared suspended there.

‘Black hole? ’

'no. ’

Luo Xiu stared at the black space on the screen and asked himself a question.

As a starship human who has personally experienced being on the edge of a black hole, Luo Xiu knows what kind of terrifying energy a black hole has.

If it is really a black hole, or a black hole with such a large diameter, let alone the material in the Oort cloud, even the solar system will be attracted by its gravity in an instant and be absorbed into the interior.

"Bring up footage of the Kuiper Belt Test Site."

At this time, Luo Xiu did not wait for Xue He to recover. Instead, he directly commanded the control system in the exoskeleton armor's helmet and brought up the scene at the Kuiper Belt test site.

At this time, in the Kuiper Belt test site, two warships with a total of five hulls were gathering together under the control of the engineering ship. They seemed not to be affected by the drastic changes in the Oort cloud.

"Where is the third ship?" Although the Kuiper Belt test site was very calm, this was not what Luo Xiu wanted to see.

Since the third battleship made such a big noise, Luo Xiu certainly wanted to see what happened to this ship to form a strange black space in the center of the ring.

But now it seems that the third ship did not appear in the Kuiper Belt test site at all.

‘Annihilated? ’

‘Or did it move to another place? ’

Luo Xiu in the exoskeleton armor frowned, looking a little dissatisfied with the disappearance of the third battleship.

"Search inside the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud to see if the wreckage of the third warship can be found." To be on the safe side, Luo Xiu asked the control system to send ships to search the inside of the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud first. Is there any trace of the third warship in these two places?

However, the two areas combined are very huge. The area occupied by the Oort cloud with a diameter of one light-year is not small. It would take an extremely long time to completely search it.

"The jump circle sent out a reconnaissance ship to survey the center of the circle and check the situation in the space."

When Luo Xiu asked the control system to find the location of the third ship, he also did not forget to detect the black space in the center of the jump ring.

This black space should be the cause of the disappearance of the third ship.

Just after Luo Xiu had given several instructions, Xue He and Cao Guolin recovered from their brief blindness.

The first thing they did when they recovered was to look up at the big screen in front of them.

At this time, the third battleship was no longer visible on the big screen. There was only a jump ring and the black space in the middle of the ring.

"this"

Xue He, who has been responsible for the construction of the jump ring, did not expect such a situation to occur. Judging from the multiple virtual calculations at the lunar research base, the third energy transmission did not reach the maximum value at all.

Even during the trial, it had not even reached 50%.

Under such circumstances, why did the experiment turn out to be such a horrific situation?

"Don't worry, check the structure of the black space first, and continue to check the jump ring."

"If the black space does not disappear, move the jump ring and continue the wormhole jump experiment near it."

For this failure, Luo Xiu did not mean to blame Xue He and others. After all, he had been following up on the other party's experiments, and he also knew that the other party had already tested it many times in the 'Fantasy Dream'.

This time's experiment can only be said to be an accident, and it cannot be regarded as a mistake by Xue He and others.

The most likely cause of this accident may be the space energy debris located at the center of the circle. This is the only thing that is most uncertain about the entire experiment.

"Okay, let's do this for now. The test is 90% successful. The next test should be not far away from success." Luo Xiu reached out and patted Cao Guolin's shoulder, then continued, "As long as the jump test is successful, We can truly travel across the galaxy."

"At that time, the 'Star Gate' will no longer be important, and the raids by the cruising fleet can be directly resolved."

"We will conduct the next test in ten days."

However, while the ring was being inspected inside the solar system and the location of the third ship was being searched, on the outer edge of the Milky Way, in the Perseus Arm, one of the four major spiral arms, the third ship disappeared into the third ship. The wreckage of three ships suddenly appeared and flew towards a star system at high speed.

‘Traces of civilization detected. ’

‘The civilization has a 70% probability of being an omnic civilization. ’

‘Capture the wreckage. ’

‘Locate the jump target. ’

‘The transition traces are disordered and are being corrected. ’
