Guide to Galactic Dominance

Chapter 220 Survival

Almost all warships of interstellar civilizations have the function of self-destruction. This self-destruction is not to detonate their own ammunition depot, but to add a destabilizer to the energy module to pile up the antimatter energy of the spacecraft in a very short period of time. Converts into a large anti-matter bomb.

The purpose of setting up such a function on a star battleship is basically to deal a fatal blow to the enemy in the last ditch, so that we can both perish together. And more importantly, even if any interstellar battleship has no military information, from construction to details, it is full of technical information of a civilization. Through understanding and calculation, one can have a deep understanding of a civilization, and even some important technologies. If it flows into the enemy's hands, it may have serious consequences for this civilization.

Although a Taia-class frigate is already a very important asset to the Star Alliance, which currently has a small number of ships, building one takes a month in a dockyard. But at this time, in order to protect all the surviving crew members and create an opportunity for the Holy Falcon to escape, Bai Zhongqi could only grit his teeth and be cruel.

When Chi Jia came out of the rescue capsule, the first thing he saw was the image of an asteroid with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers hitting the Holy Falcon on the screen of the Holy Falcon's dock. The Sacred Falcon has been receiving a towing rescue capsule and cannot leave the asteroid's reach in a short period of time.

At this moment, Bai Zhongqi decisively detonated the Richelieu. With the powerful power generated by the explosion, he can push this huge asteroid a short distance away, even if it is only delayed by two or three seconds. After receiving the last rescue capsule, Bai Zhongqi can complete the energy storage of the Holy Falcon. , launch a short-range space jump to avoid this huge asteroid.

When antimatter breaks away from its restraints and annihilates with positive matter, the entire ship is engulfed by powerful energy. This ship, which once contributed to the Star Alliance and discovered the Eden galaxy, is directly decomposed at this moment. Became the most primitive atomic state.

The paper captain's log that Chi Jia placed in the captain's room, the celebrity posters posted on the wall in the crew cabin, the fallen plant vase in the dining room, and the damaged Banshee fighter jet on the tarmac were all illuminated by the bright light at this moment. shrouded, then ceased to exist.

Chi Jia was stunned for a moment as he watched the ship that had become bound to him and the crew disappear. The optical sensor of the Holy Falcon adjusted the light to make it less rumored, but after the light disappeared, in that space, There is no trace that the Richelieu ever existed.

However, Bai Zhongqi succeeded.

Although the terrible explosion power did not push the flying asteroid, it slowed down the asteroid's speed and even blasted a huge crack on the surface of the asteroid. Bai Zhongqi gained 2.883 seconds to complete the energy storage of the Holy Falcon's short-range space jump. Without any delay, Zero immediately commanded the ship to jump to a location more than 10,000 kilometers away.

Although just after jumping out, several small star fragments hit the Holy Falcon, causing the huge spacecraft to shake a bit, but this impact was completely within the tolerance of the Holy Falcon's energy shield. Inside.

As soon as Tashvi climbed out of the rescue cabin, he fell down due to the shaking and even knocked a little. However, the feeling of escaping from death was still very good. With the help of several comrades on the ship, he climbed up and frantically Waving arms.

"Mother-fucker! Damn the supernova explosion and we still survived!"

Jun Jiushao passed by him and said with a dull expression: "We haven't overcome this crisis yet. We are still within the scope of the supernova explosion. This supernova will release more energy. We If you stay here for a while, it will be more dangerous."

Bai Zhongqi in the bridge had a calm demeanor and was not completely relaxed. Now it's the star fragments pushed by the energy shock wave, and what's coming next is the energy bursting out from the star. This power may directly exhaust the energy shield of the Holy Falcon and completely destroy the battleship.

This is definitely not a fun place, and Bai Zhongqi doesn't plan to stay here for one more second.

Zero turned to look at him and said: "Your Majesty, according to your plan, we jumped into this low-risk gap. It only takes three minutes for the warp engine to restart and we can jump out."

Bai Zhongqi nodded, no more intervention was needed at this time. Zero, as the battleship AI, controlled the large and small weapons on the battlecruiser very well, aiming at the approaching star fragments and smashing them one by one. As long as the final preparations are completed, the Holy Falcon can leave this ghost place.

At this time, Bai Zhongqi received news from Captain Chi Jia of the Richelieu in the dock.

"Your Majesty, we have preliminary counted the number of people. Three comrades died in the collision, and three comrades died after ejection from the rescue capsule. We have just discovered that there are seven more comrades who failed to withstand the gamma ray burst in space. Already sacrificed.”

Bai Zhongqi felt very heavy after hearing this report. The sacrifice of thirteen people under such unfortunate circumstances can basically be regarded as a blessing in misfortune. This is the true normality in the universe. It is a thorough and ruthless place with all kinds of unexpected situations. No matter how advanced the technology is, the pioneers of space exploration are still paying the price in blood. The same is true for the Iridium people. Countless people die in the universe every year.

The shock wave destruction of a supernova explosion is one part, and the powerful gamma ray burst emitted by the star is another part. Human beings exposed to gamma rays have absolutely no chance of survival. With the protection of the Iridium rescue capsule and the liberation of genetic advantages to enhance resistance to the cosmic environment, most people survived, but they may experience many physical sequelae afterwards and need a period of recuperation. Seven crew members still failed to hold on and were directly killed by gamma rays.

When the warp engine cooled down and the Holy Falcon opened its warp bubble again, Bai Zhongqi and the crew of the ship successfully escaped from the surface of space, and the various damages of the supernova explosion would no longer be able to touch them.

At this time, Bai Zhongqi breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little exhausted.

He turned on the ship's radio channel and said to the crew members who had narrowly escaped death: "Everyone, we succeeded."

All the crew members in the dock cheered for joy at this moment. In the face of a narrow escape, the supreme ruler of the de facto civilization and the head of state of Iridium did not give up on them, but led everyone through despite the risks. , the courage and will he showed are awe-inspiring.
