Chapter 209 Dark Matter Cannon

How to solve the mobility gap between the two sides?

This starts with the basic principle of the space-time trap.

The curvature engine can distort the space-time in front and behind the starship, causing the space-time in front of the starship to shrink and the space-time behind the starship to expand, so that the space-time itself can push the starship forward, thereby bypassing the speed of light limit of relativity.

The so-called space-time trap is made based on this principle.

The resonance principle allows the space-time in a certain area to begin to fluctuate irregularly, thereby preventing the normal working state of the curvature engine.

For example, for a ship sailing on the ocean, a calm sea surface is always more conducive to sailing. If the waves on the sea surface are large to a certain extent, the sailing will naturally be hindered.

The higher the virtue, the higher the devil. Since there is a technology like the space-time trap, naturally there is also a technology to crack the space-time trap.

The first option, as long as the power of the curvature engine is high enough, it can naturally achieve the effect of a powerful brick flying, and the starship can directly resist the irregular space-time fluctuations created by the space-time trap!

Undoubtedly, this plan will definitely have a certain impact on the power of the starship. Just like the current [Varilla], although it can rely on the curvature engine to achieve regular cruising, it can no longer enter the superluminal cruise state because the curvature engine power is not enough to overcome the obstacles of the space-time trap.

The second plan is to crack the wave law created by the space-time trap, synchronously create opposite space-time fluctuations around the starship, and rely on the superposition and offset of waves to smooth out the disturbances on the space-time ocean. The reason why the Roca planetary fortress that released the space-time trap is not affected is because of this technology.

In summary, there are two solutions to solve the mobility gap between the two sides.

First, improve their own mobility.

That is, crack the space-time trap, unlock the restrictions on the [Varilla], and the two sides will compete with

each other based on the power of the curvature engine. The difficulty of cracking mainly depends on the opponent's computing power and computer technology.

After considering the identity of [Source], Chen Fan directly gave up this option.

The opponent is a quasi-level II artificial intelligence.

Especially after mastering the Roca planetary fortress, the only computing power defect of [Source] disappeared.

He didn't think that the Yihe shipboard main brain could crack the space-time trap controlled by [Source]!

As for the second option...

...

"Release [Imprisoner]!"

After understanding the theoretical knowledge, Chen Fan gave the order to the shipboard main brain without any hesitation.

You like to release space-time traps to play high-mobility combat, right?

Then he will add another space-time trap!

Two space-time traps act in the same area at the same time, and the impact caused is definitely not as simple as 1+1=2.

Waves will interfere with each other, or superimpose or cancel each other out...

If the previous disturbances on the space-time ocean can still be traced, then the waves on the space-time ocean next will be truly irregular changes!

The moment the order was issued, the belly hatch of the [Varilla] starship quickly opened, and a series of devices shaped like cones came out of it.

[Imprisoner] Small space-time anchor point.

This is their name. As the name suggests, their only function is to create a powerful space-time trap in a designated area.

Among the investigators, [Imprisoners] are very popular - when dealing with some troublesome civilizations, in order to prevent those civilizations from running around the universe with the help of curvature engines, a space-time trap with a large enough range is very necessary.

These small space-time anchors quietly left [Varilla] during the intervals between the two sides' space weapons bombardment and quickly spread across the battlefield.

They will find the weak nodes of this space-time on their own, so as to create the most magnificent space-time tsunami with the least power!

Tens of seconds later.

[The first batch of imprisoners are ready.]

Looking at the space-time trap in the holographic projection that was enough to cover [Varilla] and the Roca planetary fortress, Chen Fan thought and gave the order directly.

Buzz!!!

As [Imprisoners] began to operate, a huge wave was set off on the already fluctuating space-time ocean!

Like a rapidly stroked string, the chaotic gravitational waves took this star system as the origin and continued to spread to the surroundings.

The star system that was originally in a calm state was also completely in turmoil!

In the distance, the fifth gray-white rocky planet in the star system seemed to have been attacked by something invisible. The hard rock surface quickly collapsed, and a crack deep enough to see the bone continued to extend on it.

Boom!

The power of [Imprisoner] continued to increase, and the crack continued to expand!

Finally, under Chen Fan's gaze, this unfortunate planet was torn into several asymmetric fragments by the violent fluctuations of time and space.

At the same time, the speed of the red dot in the tachyon radar map on the main console began to drop rapidly.

[Current cruising speed of the target: 5c.]

[3c, 2c, 1.1c...]

[The target has left the superluminal cruise state.]

Looking at the Roca Planet Fortress that appeared again in the visible universe, Chen Fan raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.

The Roca Planet Fortress, which was forcibly pulled out of the superluminal cruise state, was obviously full of anger. In an instant, dozens of jagged black cracks quickly emerged around the Roca Planet Fortress and attacked the [Varilla] directly!

Looking at the warning information that suddenly appeared in the holographic projection, Chen Fan gave the order with almost no hesitation.

The pure energy of the zero-point energy reactor gushed out, and strong space fluctuations spread out in all directions with the [Varilla] as the center!

Full-power space shock waves! !

Dozens of space cracks stretching for tens of thousands of kilometers swept across the starry sky. The moment they came into contact with the space shock waves, the jagged marks on their surfaces suddenly spread.

After a few seconds, these space cracks quietly dissipated and disappeared into the deep starry sky.

"Charge the main gun!"

Seeing that the space weapon bombardment could not produce much effect, Chen Fan quickly made a change: "Use the dark matter cannon!"

Dark matter accounts for 26.8% of the total mass-energy of the universe, far exceeding the total amount of visible matter.

Usually only level eight civilizations can carry out research on this strange matter.

The dark matter cannon is also the purest level eight civilization attack method, and it is also the most powerful weapon on the [Varilla].

If this thing doesn't work, then Chen Fan can only consider Yi's previous proposal-either delay time or run away as soon as possible.

The moment the order was issued, a faint light rose slowly from the ship's gun on the back of the starship.

[Main gun charging completed.]

[Target locked.]

The moment the prompt message appeared, Chen Fan did not hesitate at all and directly issued the attack order!

The deep light shot out from the ship's gun.

It first passed through the starship's shield, then passed through the space cracks without a single glance, and finally disappeared in the visible universe.

When the faint light appeared again, it had quietly arrived in front of the Roca Planet Fortress.

The faint light suddenly spread and quickly enveloped the entire Roca Planet Fortress.

Then, an extremely bright light, far brighter than the brightness of a star, burst out in the empty universe around the Roca Planet Fortress, as if some invisible matter had undergone some drastic changes!

This is a chain change!

In just a moment, this light spread to a radius of hundreds of millions of kilometers!

Boom!

When the stable dark matter was activated, unprecedented energy instantly flooded the entire Roca Planet Fortress!

...

The afterglow of the dark matter cannon gradually dissipated, and three unknown planets were lost in the star system again-the moment they were caught in the attack of the dark matter cannon, these unfortunate planets directly turned into the finest interstellar dust.

The Roca Planet Fortress quietly hovered in the starry sky.

The layers of shields around it had completely dissipated.

Under Chen Fan's gaze, wisps of misty matter gushed out from the surface of the Roca Planetary Fortress and quickly spread into the vast starry sky.

"That's hydrogen."

Yi quickly explained: "Material made of dense materials will quickly return to the most common hydrogen in the universe after losing the constraints of strong interaction."

"In order to withstand the attack of the dark matter cannon, this planetary fortress seems to have paid a considerable price."

As soon as the voice fell, a line of prompt information quietly emerged in the holographic projection above the main console.

The fluctuations of the space-time trap created by the Roca Planetary Fortress that had been diffused in this battlefield began to drop sharply, and the curvature restriction of the [Varilla] was also lifted.

Chen Fan couldn't believe his eyes: "This... was killed with one shot?"

If he had known that the strength of this planetary fortress was so weak, wouldn't he have just used the dark matter cannon!

"No."

Yi quickly reminded: "Most of the dense armor is still intact, only a small part of the armor has self-disintegrated."

"At present, the greater possibility is that it has temporarily lost its mobility."

Chen Fan thought, and the ship-borne host that received the command controlled the [Varilla] to quickly approach the Roca planetary fortress.

Just as Yi said.

When the [Varilla] tried to approach, space cracks roared again!

Without exception, all space cracks were blocked by the [Varilla]'s shield.

But compared with before, after losing its mobility, the threat of this planetary fortress instantly dropped a level.

"The dark matter cannon equipped by [Varilla] is not very powerful, and its attack range only affects a small half of the star system."

Yi's voice revealed a bit of confusion: "In theory, this level of attack cannot cause such a huge blow to the planetary fortress of the eighth-level civilization."

"That only leaves one possibility."

"This planetary fortress itself has some huge defects."

"Or, the long time has caused some unforeseen failures inside it."

Chen Fan nodded thoughtfully.

He stared through the porthole at the planetary fortress, which was silver-white with a few hydrogen clouds swirling around its hull.

"One, prepare to jump."

"Jump coordinates: the internal control area of ​​the Roka planetary fortress."
