Chapter 616: Carbon fusion


"... Is there such a huge thing that the other party's persistent wormhole needs to pass through? And that thing can be finalized?"
Alsace's previous speculation suddenly appeared again in Gillard's mind, changing his countenance.
At the same time, Nie Yun also looked at this strange celestial body with white light in amazement, and information about white dwarfs appeared in his mind.
Such celestial bodies are actually not uncommon in the universe.
After passing through the main-sequence phase of life, the low- and medium-mass stars will expand into a red giant star, just like ... the sun!
After billions of years, the Sun will cross the main sequence star and expand into a giant red giant star, which will devour Mercury, Venus, and even Earth.
The scorching high temperature will turn the earth into a lava land, the extinction of life, and at this time we have two options, one is the immigrant alien planet, the other is the wandering earth ...
The core of the Sun in the red giant state will continue to shrink, and the shell will continue to burn, and then throw away the outer material in a series of thermal pulses, forming a gorgeous nebula on the periphery.
And the burning wreckage it left at last ... is the white dwarf we saw!
White dwarfs are usually composed of carbon and oxygen. Due to the rapid collapse of gravity and the crushing of atoms during the formation of white dwarfs, degenerate matter composed of nuclei and electrons is formed, so its density is amazing.
Even the "pocket-shaped" white dwarf star with a diameter of only 180 kilometers in front of it is much larger than ordinary celestial bodies.
Only about 3% of all stars are white dwarfs, and they are quite far away from the solar system, so this is the first time Nie Yun has witnessed this celestial body up close.
"This thing ... what the other party wants to do?"
Nie Yun, like everyone else, immediately thought of this problem.
As long as the IQ is online, they all understand that the Rock Consortium has spent a lot of energy and painstakingly expanding the wormhole. It will never be just to send a "flare" at the most critical moment of this battle.
So the key to the 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 defensive power, ordinary attacking methods don't even want to scratch its skin, but it also means ultra-high gravity.
Not to mention biological, even high-strength alloy steel will only turn into a pile of discus, let alone the high temperature of more than 8,000 degrees is enough to melt most materials.
"Since you can't carry a weapon, you can't use it? But this speed is too touching ... wait! Could it be ..."
Nie Yunruo's complexion also changed.
"Immediately order the fallen angel to maneuver at full speed and hide behind the fearless battle star! Also ... notify Isal and Renault ..."
...
Just when Nie Yun acted for the first time, there was some commotion in the entire battlefield because of "intruders".
The Gemini side is nervous, worried that this white dwarf is the other side's super weapon, and they will be given a "Genesis" next time, while the Ryan side is inexplicable.
Didn't say that there will be such a thing to join the battlefield?
So ... what is this?
Just when the battlefield fell into short chaos, the order from the old patriarch of the Lane tribe finally broke the situation.
"Withdraw immediately, at all costs, and return to the wormhole as quickly as possible!"
This command was very inexplicable, and all the fighters heard a hint of eagerness from the command.
So ... the Gemini fighters who were fighting with the enemy watched with amazement as the opponent who had just fought hard and suddenly charged forward suddenly turned the jet and retreated back towards the wormhole like a tide.
They didn't even leave any off-duty troops, and it seemed like a sudden abrupt escape!
Many people did not understand the situation, did not receive new instructions, and even chased after the title, preparing to beat down the water dog.
"No! Let all fleets stop chasing and retreat immediately!" Girard shouted with sweat on his forehead.
If he just had a vague guess when this thing first appeared, then now, the opponent's abnormal withdrawal will undoubtedly increase the possibility of that guess!
Although he is not an astrophysicist, as a senior fleet commander, he has no shortage of knowledge about various celestial bodies in the universe.
So he knows that in the evolution of stars, white dwarfs will naturally not be the final stage ...
And in the subsequent series of "evolution" branches of white dwarfs, there is an ultimate meaning that directly points to "art" ...
And if that's the case ...
Girard didn't 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 little while.
Without even waiting for all the Ryan warriors to return to the wormhole, and half of them staying on the battlefield, the white dwarf, which was just as gentle as a quiet big bulb, suddenly became agitated!
Its light began to fade, and the surrounding magnetic field suddenly disturbed.
"Great ... Your Excellency! It was detected that there were sudden violent energy fluctuations inside the white dwarf star, and our scientists said that it is likely that ... it is carbon fusion!"
The news made all the officers in the command room look suddenly changed.
The white dwarf star's carbon core does not undergo nuclear fusion under natural conditions. In fact, the white dwarf star is a late-fire star that "extinguished".
But the thin dead camel is bigger than the horse, the star ... has never been synonymous with "moderate".
If it is a degenerate star, suddenly the fire of nuclear fusion is rekindled ...
This phenomenon in astronomy has a cool name ... Supernova burst!
"boom!"
When the dazzling light erupted in front of everyone's eyes, Girard had lost his ability to think. He could only desperately look at the huge fleet that quickly flooded his own light ...
The speed of the fleet's withdrawal is certainly not as fast as the speed of light.
When the violent electromagnetic radiation impinges on the shield of the force field, although it is not destroyed in the first time, it constantly consumes the remaining energy of the shield.
"Boom!" One mech and fighter plane exploded and exploded under the irradiation of this intensity of energy.
And warships with stronger shields are still lingering!
The result of blunt knife cutting meat is nothing more than increasing the despair of everyone inside the battleship ...
"Boom!" Five minutes later, as the energy of a small warship's shield bottomed out, it disappeared into the universe, followed by successive explosions!
Larger warships with thicker shields are still struggling to support. If the energy is irradiated with this energy, as long as the reserve energy crystal is sufficient, after carrying the most intense energy burst, they will undoubtedly survive.
But half an hour later, a more deadly attack arrived, destroying their last hope!
It was stellar fragments produced after countless explosions. A lot of iron and nickel elements flew out with the explosion, like a sharp sword, striking the shield at the speed of light close to one tenth!
The shield shattered and then torn the armor ...
A more tragic explosion occurred, and the fleet of thousands of warships was almost completely lost under the impact of this round!
The wreckage of battleships floats everywhere in the universe, and then melts into various shapes under the high temperature ...
The most striking in the fleet is undoubtedly the huge "Fearless Battle Star"!
This dauntless battle star, which consumes countless resources of Gemini and is equipped with a large number of super weapons, was not even able to explode its full strength and was devastated!
The side directly facing the impact has been like a world of purgatory. Various fires and explosions completely submerged the entire hemisphere, and the red magma flows around.
Today's fearless battle star is like a red-hot soldering iron!
However, the diameter of more than three thousand kilometers also makes the miserable image of the fearless battle star become the only "shield" in this star field that can resist this explosion!
Including the independent shield system, the headquarters built deep underground on the back of the battle star, and the large battleship that quickly saw the plane and hid in the shadow of the back of the fearless battle star, became the only survivor in this disaster By……
"Goo ~" Nie Yun swallowed.
This is definitely the most splendid "fireworks" he has seen in his life!
Compared with the "art" of this scale, the "Pluto" plan that is frustrating in his backyard is really a bit of a family ...
He finally understood why the Locke consortium was clearly superior in strength, but it wanted a group of vassal races to constantly fight the Gemini star.
They are waiting! Wait for here to gather most of the power of civilization, and then use this way to bury this huge fleet ... in one fell swoop!
