Chapter 1321 Alternative Energy

After confirming the location of the Trisolaran civilization detector, Liu Gan added energy to the power equipment, instantly increasing it to one-tenth the speed of light, tens of thousands of kilometers in just an instant.

Liu Qian's body, this shuttle-shaped aircraft has a very simple capture device... Although simple, the technology content is not low. It launches a ball of energy to wrap up and trap the target, and then pulls the target back to itself. Come.

The technology used here, at least, cannot be analyzed by current human technology. However, for Liu Gan, who is already in the fourth stage of his brain, it is not a very bizarre technology. He can popularly call this technology energy. cage.

The detector of the Trisolaran civilization was quickly pulled back to Liu Qian. During this period, it tried to break free, but obviously to no avail. The robot mobilized the main system program, easily cracked and took over the detector's main system, and then reversed the process. The Trisolaran civilization that was communicating with it was found.

If it hadn't captured the other party's detector and conducted a reverse search, Liu Qian's detection equipment should have been able to find the location of the Trisolaran civilization within a day... It was a star orbiting Alpha Centauri in an extremely distant orbit. A group of orbiting planets.

The diameter of this planet is about two-thirds that of the Earth. It is in an extremely cold and lonely state far away from the star group, and will be relatively difficult to explore.

Human society twice used stars as backgrounds in 2014 and 2016 to try to detect whether there were planets near Trisolaris, but ultimately found nothing. But now Liu Qian is certain that there are indeed planets near Trisolaris. .

This planet is extremely far away from Trisolaris. The distance is almost equivalent to dozens of times the distance between Pluto and the sun. According to Liu Gan's speculation, the creatures on this planet should have mastered some very advanced energy. Technology, or they are extremely cold-resistant and can survive in environments near absolute zero.

However, Liu Qian prefers the former inference. Creatures that can create detectors similar to humans should not have much difference in individual characteristics from humans.

Maybe... everything is really as said in the novel "The Three-Body Problem". The three-body people could not bear the chaos caused by the three suns in the sky, so they wanted to leave the three-body system, but they did not discover the existence of humans as in the novel. , so after creating planetary engines and finding alternative energy sources, they pushed their planets away from three stars?

This is all just speculation.

If they really have planetary engine technology and alternative energy technology that can leave the star, this will still be attractive to Liu Gan. If Liu Gan wants to build a huge space fleet, these technologies are indispensable. .

Then... let's plunder!

Liu Gan no longer hid himself, maintaining one-tenth of the speed of light, and rushed towards the direction of the Trisolaran planet. The Trisolaran planet was now about 10 million kilometers away from Liu Gan. Liu Gan only used In about five minutes, we arrived near the planet.

The planet looked very cold indeed, with almost no energy fluctuations. Liu Gan scanned the surface of the planet and found that the surface of the planet was completely covered with ice... These ices were not formed after the freezing of water, but the freezing of many kinds of gases. formed into a solid.

"Judging from the element content in the surface ice layer, this planet should have been near the star group in the past and once had an atmosphere, but now it is far away from the star group, so the gas is frozen on the ground." After the robot detected it, Liu Gan explained.

"Then it is very likely that they have planetary engines? Let's do a deep scan. If there are humanoids on this planet, they must live underground and use geothermal heat or nuclear fuel to heat them to survive." Liu Qian issued new detection instructions to the robot.

"Warning! Warning! There is an approaching missile!" The robot gave an urgent reminder to Liu Gan, and brought a three-dimensional image of an approaching missile into Liu Gan's field of vision.

Obviously this missile was launched from a planet. Because planets have no atmosphere, the missile only needs to overcome the planet's gravity to be launched into space. Or... this missile was launched from a weapons tower in the orbit of a planetary satellite. emitted.

I don’t know if they felt Liu Gan’s threat, but the creatures on the planet first attacked Liu Gan!

At such a short distance, Liu Gan did not have enough time to activate the mysterious energy, and the chance of dodge was very low, but Liu Gan still carried out tactical evasion, and then at the moment when the missile was about to hit him, he fired several energy missiles with his mind. It popped out and detonated the missile a few kilometers away.

"boom!"

A burst of extremely violent white light flashed, and a small sun appeared in the sky. A large amount of radiation swept toward Liu Gan, instantly draining about 15% of the shuttle's energy. The shuttle sensed a powerful After the threat, the system sped away from the planet on its own.

"It's an interstellar missile. It's equipped with a hydrogen bomb warhead. It wants to kill us with one blow." After detecting various rays caused by the opponent's explosion, the robot quickly came to a conclusion and reported it to Liu Qian.

At the same time, more energy fluctuations appeared from the orbit of the planetary satellite. The main system of the shuttle-shaped exploration ship also confirmed these energy fluctuations for the first time. They were the same energy fluctuations as the previous interstellar missiles, but this time they were More than a dozen of them flew into space together and flew quickly towards Liu Qian's direction.

Liu Qian ran away without hesitation. After adding energy to the power equipment, the shuttle-shaped spacecraft quickly reached one-tenth the speed of light. The interstellar missiles were quickly thrown away and could no longer threaten him.

"Next time when I come over, I will bring you some gifts, so you will feel better then!" Liu Qian said a few harsh words in a shameless manner. The mysterious energy increased its energy level and jumped into the space tunnel. He ran away quickly.

Liu Qian's biggest problem now is that he does not have long-range attack weapons. When facing this kind of planet-level defense, he cannot get close to the planet's defense array. And if he is too close to the planet, he cannot make a space jump, so he can only Flee in disgrace.

Liu Gan plans to return to Earth to steal some nuclear bombs, hydrogen bombs, etc., give them energy drive, find a way to break through the satellite defense system of the Trisolaran planet, and bomb their planet surface. If it doesn't work once, then twice, or if twice doesn't work, four times. , transport the Earth's nuclear arsenal, and fight until the Trisolarans can no longer bear it and voluntarily surrender and hand over their technology.
