Chapter 341 Red Giant Star

Watching the expedition fleet slowly moving away, the words from the fifth-level civilization creature Luo Zhaoyangdong slowly flowed through Han Yang's mind again.

"Lava beasts are strange creatures with low combat IQ. They rely more on combat instincts, their own strong defense and offensive capabilities to fight, and will not engage in any conspiracy or trickery.

Under normal circumstances, even a third-level civilization with a rating of 3.5 or even lower, as long as it is willing to pay the price, as long as it is willing to use supplies, ammunition and human lives to fill it, it can also annihilate this group of lava beasts.

After all, the number of lava beasts is limited, and with a third-level civilization as a backing, the supply of supplies, ammunition and soldiers can barely be considered unlimited.

But this involves an extremely important point.

Fighting will, and the average quality of combatants.

If you can't afford too many casualties, can't afford the heavy task of supplying supplies, and finally If it leads to mental breakdown, then it will obviously lead to mission failure or even annihilation.

In general, there is only one key point to deal with strange life forms such as lava beasts.

The more afraid of death, the more you die. The less afraid of death, the fewer you die.

And it is obvious that your human warriors have an unparalleled firm will to fight and a relatively high average quality. I don’t know how you do this specifically, but these two advantages are the best magic weapon to deal with lava beasts.

In summary, this rating is only 3.72, but even the strange life forms that civilizations with ratings of 3.8 and 3.9 are unwilling to touch are the most suitable for your human civilization with a real rating of only about 3.6 to deal with. "

Han Yang chose to believe Luo Zhaoyangdong's words. In other words, believe the words of the fifth-level civilization analysis team behind Luo Zhaoyangdong.

They have no reason to harm themselves.

"Firm will to fight, extremely high average quality..."

In space, the light and shadow changed instantly, and the next moment, a full ten fifth-level civilization aerospace motherships disappeared.

More than ten years later, at the edge of the YT-621 galaxy, the same light and shadow changed, and the next moment, ten huge space motherships appeared out of thin air.

Hundreds of thousands of warships left their berths and began to gather and form a formation at a place hundreds of billions of kilometers away from the star.

Looking at the huge dark red star in the distance, Lu Xinghe looked calm.

Lava beast, we humans are here...

The huge fleet began to move forward rapidly.

After the preliminary detection, more detailed environmental information about the YT-621 galaxy was presented to Lu Xinghe.

"The star is an aging red giant, extremely expanded, with a diameter of more than 30 million kilometers, and the surface temperature has dropped to about 3000 degrees Celsius.

Under intense stellar activity, the surface atmosphere is being lost at an extremely high rate. It is estimated that the rate of stellar material loss has reached an average of about 100 million tons per second, and the speed has reached about 900 kilometers per second.

These hot and high-temperature charged plasmas swept across the entire galaxy, greatly increasing the background radiation level. For extravehicular activities, you need to wear a space suit that can provide at least level 2 protection. To be safe, it is best to wear a level 3 protective space suit.

The lifespan of the star is expected to be about 600 million years. After that, the star will lose 55% of its matter, and the remaining core will be compressed into a white dwarf.

The star originally had 6 planets. But the nearest planet has been destroyed by the expanding star. Swallowed, there are five left at this moment. Among them, there are two gas giant planets and three rocky planets.

Lava beasts love starlight, so they mainly gather on Planet No. 1. It is estimated that there are about 500,000 lava beasts on this planet.

There are also lava beasts on the remaining four planets, with a number of about 200,000. The number of lava beasts in the entire star system is about 700,000.

It should be noted that as the main planet where lava beasts gather, Planet No. 1, at this stage, because of the continuous throwing of star matter, the increase in interstellar gas density, and the slowing of its revolution speed, the orbit of Planet No. 1 has become more and more flat. It is expected that in a maximum of 10 million years, it will follow the footsteps of a planet, fall into the star, and then be torn apart by the star's gravity.

..."

At this moment, Lu Xinghe really came to this star system and obtained more and more detailed data about the star system. However, these data are not much different from the data detected in the past.

The initial combat plan does not need to be modified too much.

"Clean up satellite No. 43 and build an industrial base."

"Yes."

Satellite No. 43 is the No. 3 satellite of planet No. 4.

After a somewhat lengthy voyage, the huge fleet entered the interior of the star system and came directly to the vicinity of planet No. 4, which is somewhat similar to Neptune.

Lu Xinghe truly saw the true face of this powerful and strange life that once destroyed a third-level civilization.

The overall appearance of them looks a bit like a bird, with two legs and two huge wings. The body color is fiery red, like a ball of flame.

They are big and small, the smallest is only a few dozen meters long, and the largest can even reach 200 meters.

At this moment, above satellite No. 43, some low-lying areas have gathered a lot of fiery red magma, and the scorching high temperature has heated the surrounding frozen objects, so that this satellite even has a thin atmosphere.

Originally, this satellite was not big enough to have a hot core, let alone magma. However, the huge gravity of Planet 4 tore it apart and heated its core. The small satellite also had mountain building and an active core, and then became the home of lava beasts.

Thousands of lava beasts were immersed in the lava lake, sometimes soaring into the sky, and sometimes diving into the lava lake like diving.

Lava beasts also appeared in other areas of Satellite 43.

Lu Xinghe clearly saw that a huge hill suddenly emerged in a dark and cold valley full of frozen dry ice, methane and the like.

The hill was broken, and a huge lava beast sprayed hot plasma, and its huge body soared into the sky. Below, hot magma gushed out like a volcanic eruption, and a large amount of lava flowed everywhere in this canyon, and countless frozen objects melted and evaporated instantly.

The crust of Satellite 43 was pierced by the lava beasts.

Finally, a small lava lake appeared. The lava beast chirped silently a few times, then plunged in.

The surrounding lava beasts also rushed over quickly and began to enjoy this rare feast together.

Lu Xinghe knew in his heart that the lava beasts would never stop drilling through the earth's crust.

Because the surface temperature of the planet is too low, the magma will continue to cool and eventually solidify.

Just a cursory look at this satellite can find many traces of magma cooling and solidification.

After the magma solidifies, the magma lake will of course disappear. So the lava beast will repeat the previous process, drilling through the earth's crust again, draining out the hot lava inside, and will not stop until the planet is riddled with holes and the environment is completely destroyed.

Just by imagining it, Lu Xinghe felt how desperate the third-level civilization destroyed by the lava beast would be when facing the riddled mother planet.

"Start cleaning."

"Yes!"

Sensing the approach of the unknown fleet, the lava beasts also became alert. The lava beasts that were originally on the surrounding satellites also began to gather here, with a total number of about 30,000.

Before the lava beasts finished gathering, the human fleet completed the battle arrangements first, and a total of more than 100,000 warships participating in the battle opened fire together.

Tens of thousands of lava beasts spread their wings at the same time at this moment. The already thick veins on the wings expanded even more. In the end, dozens of shining small light balls erupted from the ends of the wings, the terminals of the veins, and rushed towards the huge fleet in space.

Lu Xinghe knew that the light ball was not actually a light ball, but an energy cannon projectile in a quark excited state.

There were also some lava beasts that aimed at the human fleet at both ends of their bodies, and the next moment, a laser beam containing extremely high energy was fired.

At the same time, these lava beasts seemed to have nothing around them, but once the human attack arrived, when they were less than ten meters away from the lava beast's body, they would be blocked by an invisible barrier.

The barrier was not visible as a whole, only the point where the projectile was moving forward would flash violently when it was hit, like a firework.

At this moment, an idea suddenly emerged in Lu Xinghe's mind.

"Is this the strange life with a score of 3.7? Is this still a strange life? It's better to say it's a biological battleship..."

In the fierce artillery fire, a large number of lava beasts had their shields broken, their bodies were directly torn apart, and they died directly. At the same time, there were casualties on the human side.

The power of the energy cannon projectiles fired by the lava beast through its wings is no weaker than that of the human side. Although the self-defense side has carried out a large number of interceptions, some of the shells still penetrated the defense and tore the battleship apart.

As soon as the battle began, it entered a brutal war of attrition.

However, no matter how many casualties the self-defense side suffered, the battle formation of the 100,000 battleships participating in the battle was not chaotic at all, and the tactics were not chaotic at all. Even if the battleship was obviously seriously damaged and was about to be annihilated in the next moment, the battleship still fought to the death.

Because as soon as they retreat, the formation will be in chaos and there will be loopholes in the firepower network.

In any case, maintaining the suppression of the firepower network and maintaining the intensity of the firepower network are the highest goals. For this goal, it is completely worthwhile to make certain sacrifices.

At this moment, Lu Xinghe truly felt the horror of these lava beasts.

They are fearless and brave in battle. Almost from the beginning, they took out the most powerful attack, desperately attacking their own formation and firepower network, trying to disrupt their own formation.

This brought unimaginable pressure to their side.

Even if he was in the rear, Lu Xinghe really felt this pressure, not to mention the front-line soldiers who were really on the front line and could suffer a devastating blow at any time. (End of this chapter)
