Chapter 474 Launch, Tide (1/2)
Chapter 474 Launch, Tide
Leaving the gravity detection device of the flying civilization.
Yan Xia entered a period of preparation.
He began to cultivate his clone inside the battleship and mass-produced himself.
The battleship itself is too small as a unit. If there is really an advanced civilization entering the third dimension, it will be destroyed instantly when it arrives, and there will not even be any reaction time.
Then, everything he does will be meaningless.
After copying himself, these meta-cells will carry another gene that will work.
That is [Supreme God].
The sequence gene of the Supreme God can make Yan Xia as powerful as a spaceship.
This will buy some time for Yan Xia.
However, the more difficult thing is that these genes are very strong in themselves, but Yan Xia does not have a matching energy device.
Sequence is not just a gene.
If you want to support a huge body and want a huge body to have matching strength, you also need a built-in energy storage device.
This storage device itself may be small, but the internal energy reserve is a lot.
After the sequence transformation is completed, this storage will spread, and it will transform part of the sequence's flesh and blood into an organ for storing energy.
The more powerful the sequence, the more advanced the energy storage required.
Needless to say, Yan Xia's is fully loaded.
If it is an ordinary energy storage, it cannot supply a sequence as powerful as the Supreme God.
This kind of energy storage cannot be produced in a short time even with a micro factory, and the technology it uses is very advanced.
This is equivalent to stuffing the energy device of a kilometer-class spacecraft into a 2-meter organism.
"You can only be cannon fodder!"
Yan Xia looked at the hundreds of himself in the spacecraft.
Those Yan Xia were extremely calm.
"Why are you talking about these meaningless things?"
"The most important thing now is research. The situation of the dimensional channel this time is obviously outside the event."
"I was actually wondering whether our Zerg would also trigger these fluctuations when they arrived in the fourth dimension. These fluctuations themselves would cause tension in the four-dimensional civilization."
"But it's just an idea. After all, even if the flying civilization doesn't have units like Zerg, they haven't even explored the dimensional channel, and they have only encountered two dimensional invasions."
"Ours was one, so this can't determine whether we have affected the four-dimensional civilization."
One of the Yan Xia said.
The rest of the Yan Xia didn't speak.
Because they were all thinking the same thing at this time.
"We can't have a dialectical relationship with ourselves. Even if we refute you at this time, I believe you already know what we are refutating in your heart."
"The real research content is not something we should consider. We don't have the ability."
"At this time, think about what to do after encountering the enemy!"
The Yan Xias pondered deeply.
"In fact, we don't deserve any complicated tactics, just keep it simple."
"Our goal is not to survive, but to ensure that the information of this battleship can be transmitted back."
"Although this battleship is not equipped with weapons, it still retains some device launch pads."
"It can roughly allow me to accelerate to a speed of more than 80,000 km/s, so I can explore it first."
There are also many detection devices on the battleship.
These devices need to be launched at a higher speed.
They are reserved.
However...
"Our bodies can't withstand such strong acceleration."
"You can think of this plan."
The Yan Xia who made the suggestion spoke.
"Have we had differences in our thoughts in such a short time?"
"Isn't there an anti-gravity system on the mecha? I can enter the launch pad wearing the mecha."
"And the mecha can also send information back to the battleship."
Indeed.
But they only have one mecha.
All Yan Xia looked at the original Yan Xia.
He said, "It would be better if I could go directly. At least I could still support myself for a while and send information back when I encounter it."
He has an energy storage device in his body.
Yan Xia nodded.
"Well, you go!"
Yan Xia didn't have any objection at first, but just shook his head with amusement.
"You talk as if I'm going to go right away!"
"Let's talk about it after all the detectors fail."
The detection system on the battleship is actually quite complete, and there are still detectors.
It's really interesting to chat with yourself.
Yan Xia himself is a person who will think about all the plans in advance. Now hundreds of him are standing together, which is equivalent to speaking out what's in his heart.
Really "speaking out".
His own plan to go through the launch pad is the last plan, not what he is doing now.
After leaving the original star system, Yan Xia began to launch detectors.
There are 29 detectors left on the entire battleship, and they are launched by Yan Xia in different directions.
The detector will stop at a certain coordinate, and then explore the surroundings by releasing some particles. Of course, it will also collect information about the surroundings through light.
It doesn't have more advanced ones.
Because these detectors are very small.
A warship should be equipped with 50,000 detectors as standard.
But after all, this battleship has been in the flying civilization for such a long time, and many things are being consumed.
It has not been replenished in the flying civilization.
The reason is that it is not needed.
Those detectors are not used up, but the natural elimination of the machinery itself.
The half-life of many metals in the Federation is very short, tens of thousands of years or hundreds of thousands of years.
Generally speaking, a metal with a half-life of one million years does not mean that it will be eliminated after a million years, in fact, it will be eliminated in about ten thousand years.
The design life of these detectors is not long.
Ten or twenty thousand years.
It is not that they are reluctant to use metals with a higher half-life. The short half-life of the metal itself actually means that the metal is more unstable, that is, the heavier the weight.
The heavier weight itself is actually a good thing, which means that if the material itself is molded into one piece, it will be stronger.
Of course, this strength is within a certain period of time.
The detector is a kind of thing that is updated and replaced relatively quickly, and due to its characteristics, it is actually more easily damaged.
So in order to increase its own safety and cost considerations, it does not need to use the kind of metal that is both good and long-lasting.
It just needs to be better, and it doesn't matter if it takes a short time.
This is why they can't use too many detectors now.
Is it cutting corners?
Not really!
You can't expect a mobile phone made in 2000 to last until 2030.
Even a mobile phone that costs tens of thousands of yuan is the same.
So did this mobile phone that costs tens of thousands of yuan cut corners?
Definitely not.
Because this is the life cycle it should have.
The Federation also has detectors with long lifespans, but those things are basically impossible to assemble in batches.
These things have not ended their lifespans, and the next batch of better detectors have come out. What should be done with these detectors?
The manufacturing cost has risen, and they can't be scrapped directly even if they are not broken.
This is an industrial trade-off in itself.
After these detectors were launched, Yan Xia and others entered a "cooling-off period".
That is, they each did their own things and were busy in the battleship.
Yan Xia is a person who can't be idle, and now he is particularly idle during this period, so the result is that the interior of the battleship has become extremely clean and tidy, and it has to be cleaned several times a day.
Idleness is also the norm in interstellar travel.
After all, there is no such thing as an endless task.
If there is, it is because new problems will arise continuously.
For example, managing the federation.
And now they have only one goal, which is to know what happened in the dimensional channel.
However, the things based on the information they know now have been done, and no new information has arrived. They can only stare at themselves every day.
In fact, there is also a virtual world in the battleship, but how could Yan Xia play a virtual game at this time?
This lasted for almost 3 years.
Finally, the first message came.
All Yan Xia arrived at the control room as soon as possible.
Then, Yan Xia, who was responsible for receiving the communication, said: "The detector was destroyed, without any signs."
The detector has a warning signal of being destroyed.
This signal is placed in a high-intensity small box.
However, this high-intensity small box is not for resisting external attacks, that is meaningless.
Its function is to constrain the signal source.
When the box is destroyed, the strong signal source inside will also be released.
This is a complex signal, containing elementary particles such as light and neutrinos that are not easily changed and blocked.
"Destroyed? This is also expected. After all, the detector itself is not set for detection."
Detection and detection are essentially different.
The detector itself has the need to be invisible, and it has the purpose of war.
This is also the standard configuration of warships.
But in the flying civilization here, detectors are not allowed, so all detectors are installed.
This is why Yan Xia discussed letting one of them launch it.
The detector is too small.
"Then it's my turn!"
Yan Xia said at first.
He went to the launch pad without saying much.
Being stuffed into the launch pad, he still thought it was quite spacious.
The detector is small, but it is also larger than a person.
Yan Xia covered himself with the mecha, and then began to chant to himself: "Three, two, one, launch!"
The reason why he needed to chant to himself was because the anti-gravity of the mecha was limited. He had to release all the anti-gravity at the moment of acceleration to avoid being crushed by the acceleration.
Yan Xia in the launch pad instantly felt that his whole body entered an extremely tense state.
A strong propulsion surged throughout his body.
The force was so great that he felt like he had lost consciousness.
No!
It wasn't a feeling at all, but a fact.
Yan Xia had miscalculated. Even with the anti-gravity of the mecha, his body couldn't withstand this level of acceleration.
So at the moment of launching, he exploded and died.
But it didn't matter.
The restrictions of the meta-cell were released, and a meta-cell regenerated a new him inside the mecha.
"Bad experience."
The newly born Yan Xia quickly accepted all the mechanical creations of the original Yan Xia.
These mechanical creations were very strong, and Ella arranged top-level ones for him, so this acceleration could not affect them.
Of course, another reason was that they were small enough.
Yan Xia, who was accelerated to 82673km/s, began to move towards the dimensional channel. He felt that all the light was converging in front of him.
It is not obvious now.
Because the light behind him can still catch up with him.
But not so fast.
So if he looks behind him, the light behind him will be less than the light in front of him.
At this speed, the difference is not too big. It takes more than 200,000 kilometers per second to really feel it.
"Is this what it feels like to reach a speed of 80,000 kilometers per second alone?"
"It is no different from 10,000 kilometers or even 1,000 kilometers."
Yan Xia was a little disappointed.
One of the reasons he wanted to launch was to experience this feeling.
Yan Xia actually thought about a lot of things during the flight.
Does he really want to die?
People are always contradictory.
It is always impossible to make a definite choice between living and dying.
So Yan Xia would be melancholy at this time. It would be better if he could live longer.
But he firmly believed that his current choice was not wrong.
There needs to be someone to do such a thing, not another him, but him.
What's the difference?
Maybe it does for him, but it makes no difference to outsiders.
Then why should I care what outsiders think?
Countless such questions emerged in Yan Xia's mind, and he was constantly confirming and denying his own thoughts.
"What a contradiction!"
"What's the point of thinking about these now?"
Yan Xia would often think about these things.
But even if there is no meaning, he would still not stop thinking about them.
Because this is life.
Apart from his identity, Yan Xia is just like all the federal human races. He is still just a mortal with all kinds of distractions.
But there is nothing wrong with this.
It is precisely because of the ordinary that a firefighter rushes into the fire to save people and appears great.
It would be natural for Superman to rush into the fire to save people.
Yan Xia is not ashamed that he has never been able to get rid of his distractions. On the contrary, he thinks this is the best.
Every life should be proud of its own contradictions and complexities.
This is a real work of art.
Yan Xia flew for a long time.
So long that he was about to fall asleep.
He couldn't do anything in the battleship, and the same was true for him during this flight.
He could only look forward.
He didn't know how much time had passed. When moving quickly, atoms and electrons would become slow because they were physically limited and could not exceed the speed of light.
Therefore, Yan Xia's reading of the time at this time would be absolutely inaccurate.
Spaceships and battleships would use computing power to automatically correct the time according to their current speed, making it roughly the same.
But now he couldn't do these.
But the only thing Yan Xia could be sure of was.
He was almost there.
In his field of vision, a black line appeared in the distance.
The black line was getting bigger and bigger.
It looked like the tide of the ocean in the night.
"Is that an enemy?"
